Actually I just want to act

Chapter 473 Baidu Angel Round Funding Completed

"Not only do webpage translations, but we also do online disks." Fang Jiming said, "But online disks require a lot of money, we will do it later, and we can do pre-research first. By the way, how is the academic work going? Net, Vip, do they agree with us to do Baidu search in the past?"

"I agree, and they are also happy for our help to help them expand their influence." Wen Liangping said.

Fang Jiming said with a smile: "After getting the exclusive authorization, gringos can't do without Baidu if they want to find Chinese papers! So, it is enough to be yourself, and the overseas market can penetrate naturally." After all, this ideology Different, it is difficult for gringos to let Baidu occupy their lives.However, as long as it infiltrates slowly, they will get used to it.

Of course, don’t try to compete with GG in Eagle Sauce, basically you can’t compete.

However, Baidu can infiltrate Europa and other places, and compete with GG for services, which is easy to use.As long as you use it well, others will definitely use you.After all, it is Europa, not Eagle Sauce, so it can still penetrate.As for Eagle Sauce, we also want to go in, not to expand the market, but to let GG know that Baidu is not afraid of competing with them.If you lose, you don't lose, that's probably how it is.

Moreover, Fang Jiming knew that in his previous life, in addition to search, Google also relied on maps and Youtube videos to firmly occupy the first echelon.So, if he has money, Fang Jiming will also invest in video.Of course, Google does not only have Youtube videos, its main business is advertising.

Fang Jiming directly took over Google's advertising partner strategy from his previous life, and it works fairly well in China.

When the time is right, Fang Jiming will also apply Baidu's methods to overseas markets.As long as he can grab one-third of the GG market, Fang Jiming will feel that it is a huge victory.

After telling Baidu's top management about the plan, Fang Jiming repeatedly emphasized not to divulge secrets and implement it earnestly.As for what is the time is ripe?Very simple, after Baidu received angel round financing!It's just that the Internet winter on Yingjiang's side has not yet thawed, and many capitals don't want to invest at all, but want to shrink their business, which is enough.

Of course, not all investment institutions are shrinking. Enbei Capital, Huanhui Investment, Lanshan Capital, and Morgan Investment of Yingjiang are all interested in Baidu and have contacted it, but they cannot accept Baidu’s request for premium financing.To put it bluntly, these capitals are greedy.But after Baidu gradually embarked on the road to profitability, they were also in a hurry.

Therefore, these companies combined to prepare to win Baidu.At this time, Baidu suddenly told them that they had received a total investment of more than 400 million from Zhongda Materials Group and Shangmei Group, and they were ready to sign a contract. The remaining 12% of the shares had not been subscribed.

As soon as the news came out, these investment companies were dumbfounded and didn't know what to do - because they couldn't get 5% of the shares, it was basically useless!
After further discussions, Baidu was willing to take out more shares, but Morgan Investment was not happy, and finally withdrew.Enbei Capital, Huanhui Investment, and Lanshan Capital are left, each of which takes 5% of the shares, and each pays a premium of 500 million dollars.No way, Fang Jiming is so tough, either you don’t vote, or you can only pay a premium if you want to vote—who made you hesitate?

Fortunately, 500 million US dollars is like sprinkle water ("little meaning" in Cantonese) for these companies, and they also recognized it.

After everyone was happy, Fang Jiming immediately asked Jiang Xingrui to start the overseas market expansion plan, and he couldn't let GG and WOO focus on the former.

As a result, Baidu's plan to go overseas began to take shape.Thanks to its mature business model, Baidu quickly occupied a place in the overseas market.Well, the market share is about 10%, which is equivalent to the remaining and leaked market share of GG and WOO.However, even this 10% is higher than domestic earnings.

Wen Liangping is very aggressive, and he wants to start the eagle sauce market.

Unfortunately, in Eagle Sauce, Baidu's market share is less than 3%.There is no way, Baidu is not allowed to engage in GG and WOO, and search for messy things.Basically, it is in accordance with domestic rules, so it is naturally unpopular.Without the permission of world-class magazines and the authorization of their website, it is difficult to do business.

Fortunately, Baidu Zhizhi, Baidu Tieba and other products are better, so they have a bit of loyal users.

It can only be said that the journey of soft culture to the sea is too long and long, and it is still a bit aggrieved to add search engines and other things that are not as good as others.

Fang Jiming has a good attitude and knows that this kind of thing can't be done overnight, but a long process, so he doesn't care too much.If you can make money in the overseas market, you will make it, and if you can’t make it, you will burn investors’ money. What are you afraid of?The key is the operation of the base camp, which must be done well.Therefore, Fang Jiming repeatedly warned Jiang Xingrui and Wen Liangping that if they were obsessed with overseas again, they could only open overseas departments to specialize in overseas markets.

After Wen Liangping came to his senses, he really set up an overseas department, but he is the general manager, so he no longer devotes himself wholeheartedly to it.

Baidu is on the right track, while Fang Jiming is thinking about going public.

Yes, Feixun should be able to go public in the United States.

But it will take two more rounds of financing.

It's just that the second round of financing is started before the burn is over. I'm afraid those shareholders will not be happy?
Fang Jiming has a headache, if he can't catch up with the completion of the listing before 2003, how can he cash out money!
It can only be said that the game of capital is too complicated for ordinary people to play.

On this day, Fang Jiming was dating Lin Qingyi, and Fang Jiming was obviously absent-minded.

"What's the matter, Jiming, do you think I'm not important!" Lin Qingyi asked with a frown.

Fang Jiming quickly said: "No such thing, I was thinking about the movie. Isn't this about to start filming? All the other characters are available, and there is only one important role that I can't find."

"What important role?" Lin Qingyi asked curiously.

"The hero's mother needs an old actor with good acting skills and a good sense of humor." Fang Jiming sighed. In "My Sassy Girl", the scene where the hero's mother chases and beats him is also a One of the important jokes, Fang Jiming is not lying, right?Shouldn't count...

"Then I think Jiang Meiyun can do it?" Lin Qingyi said.

"Jiang Meiyun?" Yes, Fang Jiming is not familiar with her.

Lin Qingyi said: "It's the heroine of the TV series "My Life". It was more than ten years ago. I was in the first grade of elementary school when I watched it, and I was very impressed."

"Oh, her?" Fang Jiming thought for a while, "Acting skills are good, but what about funny skills?"

Lin Qingyi smiled and said: "Don't you talk about the director, she will act in whatever way you say. You are on the edge of your horn."

Fang Jiming figured it out, excitedly took her into his arms, and kissed her.

Lin Qingyi pushed him away "disgustingly", "What are you doing!" But in her heart, it was sweet and very useful.
