my return 2002

Chapter 66 An exam where the answer is known in advance.

The next day at nine o'clock in the morning, there were already many representatives of venture capital institutions sitting in the Ninetowns reception room, many of whom were acquaintances, chatting with each other.

Only Shen Lang and Jiang Yan were sitting in the corner, no one cared about it, but Jiang Yan was not dissatisfied with this, on the contrary, she was secretly a little proud. This feeling was like getting the answer in advance before the exam, and then watching other students scratching their heads, I couldn't help but chuckle in my heart.

"Which company do you belong to, beauty? I don't think I've seen it before. My name is Zhou Qi, and I'm from Bullying Capital." A slender man in his thirties walked up to Jiang Yan, showing a smile that he thought was a gentleman.

However, Jiang Yan just replied lightly: "Oh, we are from Fuhua Finance."

Zhou Qi was a little embarrassed, but he didn't give up: "Fuhua Finance? Isn't your company a fund? When did you start to change to a venture capital?"

Jiang Yan glared at the opposite with some displeasure: "Have you not done due diligence before? Ninetowns' angel round was invested by our company."

As soon as these words came out, many people at the scene cast curious and scrutinizing eyes on Shen Lang and Jiang Yan, although most of the eyes revealed: these two young people are lucky, and the information, but it is better than ignoring them before.

Jiang Yan was a little dissatisfied with this, but when she thought that when the results of the A round of financing were announced, those who underestimated her would be shocked, so she just snorted softly and didn't speak again.

Zhou Qi stood there in a daze for a few seconds, but in the end he could only sit back bored.

At this moment, Zhu Jun and several other executives from Ninetowns arrived.

"Everyone, I'm sorry for the long wait. Everyone's time is precious, so I won't repeat myself. This time, I will take 20% of the shares in the A round of financing. The rules of the A round of financing are very simple. Ninetowns is my I created it with one hand, I hope it will get enough respect, and the most respect for a company is the valuation.”

20% of the shares are more or less, the key is that more than [-] venture capital institutions came to the scene. There are too many wolves and less meat. The originally harmonious atmosphere in the reception room immediately became tense. , the next step is the competition of real money.

Zhu Jun added another sentence at this time: "I believe everyone knows that the cash flow of game companies has always been very good, so after the A round, Ninetowns may not raise funds before going public, so please put your The valuation of Ninetowns in mind is written in this envelope, just hand it over to us."

As soon as Zhu Jun finished speaking, there was a bit of chaos in the reception room. Obviously, this has disrupted the original plans of many venture capital institutions.

Zhou Qi raised his hand suddenly: "Mr. Zhu, your message is a bit too sudden. Can you wait for a few minutes first? I need to apply to my boss."

For a while, many people followed suit. Zhu Jun took a glance and nodded: "No problem, everyone can go to the toilet first, and we will start in 10 minutes."

Shen Lang also stood up, and Jiang Yan asked curiously, "What are you doing?"

"Go to the bathroom, are you together?" Shen Lang joked.

Jiang Yan gave Shen Lang a blank look.

When he came to the corridor, Shen Lang saw that many people from venture capital institutions were shutting themselves in their offices and making calls, and there were also some people in the corridor, covering their mobile phones and speaking in a low voice.

When Shen Lang came to the toilet, he was about to pee, when he heard a man's voice from the toilet cubicle, as if he was asking for instructions on how much to bid, but Shen Lang didn't care.

In the end, before he finished urinating, Zhou Qi, who had just struck up a conversation with Jiang Yan, came out of one of the cubicles. When he saw Shen Lang, he was obviously taken aback.

Shen Lang came to the sink, and Zhou Qi followed.

"Dude, when did you come in?"

Shen Lang glanced at him inexplicably: "Does it have something to do with you? I still need to say hello to you when I go to the toilet? Are you the legendary director of the toilet?"

Zhou Qi was robbed by Shen Lang for a while, and his face turned pale: "You"

"What are you, crazy!" Shen Lang said angrily, "What about you, if you are worried that I heard the land you applied for to your boss, call your boss to reapply now, and you don't have any sense of confidentiality when you speak so loudly , who is to blame?"

After Shen Lang left, Zhou Qi glanced at the time, gritted his teeth, and could only call his boss again.

By the time Shen Lang returned to the reception room, everyone else had already returned, and Zhu Jun was already looking at his watch. Just as he was about to speak, Zhou Qi came back with sweat on his forehead, maybe he was running too fast, Still being scolded by the boss, he looked very embarrassed.

When Zhou Qi returned to his seat, he gave Shen Lang a hard look. Jiang Yan keenly noticed Zhou Qi's strangeness, and looked at Shen Lang suspiciously.

"What happened to you?"

Shen Lang rolled his eyes: "Sorry, I'm male, and I like female."

Jiang Yan gave Shen Lang a pair of big white eyes backhandedly, without further entanglement, she lowered her head and wrote a few words casually on a piece of paper, the corners of her mouth slightly raised unconsciously.

Compared to Shen Lang and Jiang Yan's carelessness, people from other venture capital institutions carefully covered their hands and looked at others warily.

Jiang Yan was the first to hand in her envelope, and Zhu Jun took the envelope with a twitch of his mouth.

Immediately afterwards, someone began to hand over the written envelopes to Zhu Jun, and the atmosphere in the reception room became more dignified. When everyone handed in the envelopes, it was already 10 minutes later.

Zhu Jun took the envelope in his hand and straightened it: "Give us 10 minutes, let's discuss it."

Then he left with the management team.

Except for Shen Lang and Jiang Yan, everyone else looked at the office opposite the reception room with some anxiety, waiting anxiously for the announcement of the result.

These 10 minutes can be said to be like years for them.

Finally, after 10 difficult minutes passed, Zhu Jun came back with the management team, with a faint smile on his face, obviously getting a satisfactory result.

Zhu Jun didn't talk nonsense, and directly announced: "The round A round is led by IDG Capital, and the valuation given is 3.5 million yuan."

For a moment, everyone looked at the foreigner in IDG, and couldn't help but sigh, as expected, the old beauty is rich, and he is really willing to spend money.

Jiang Yan was also secretly surprised. The valuation of Angel Wheel Ninetowns was only 5500 million, and the valuation of the A round alone rose to 3.5 million, more than six times. You must know that the stock market crash in 2001 had just passed. At this time, the valuation of Internet companies It can only be said that the good cash flow of the game industry is an important basis for supporting The[-]'s valuation.

"Next, several follow-up investment institutions were announced, and the valuations given were all above [-] million."

No one was too surprised, they were all veteran venture capitalists in the industry.

Zhu Jun glanced at Shen Lang: "The last one to follow is Fuhua Finance."

For a moment, everyone in the reception room turned their attention to Shen Lang and Jiang Yan. If Zhou Qi hadn't struck up a conversation with Jiang Yan just now, not many people would have known that they belonged to Fuhua Finance.

Zhou Qi was also staring at Shen Lang, but his eyes were full of anger. Just now he applied to his boss for a valuation of 3.22 million, but later he wanted to re-apply but failed, and the penultimate follow-up investment had a valuation of 3.23 million , The difference between the valuations given by the two companies is only 100 million, and now Shen Lang is the last one to win the bid. What does this mean?
