I really just want to make money

Chapter 492
For example, when BT Investment Company found that MYBOOK had development potential, it began to contact other relatively formal large-scale investment companies.

After finding a few companies with investment intentions, BT Investment began to contact MYBOOK to seek investment, but they would not invest at the normal price, and it was inevitable to lower the price.

For example, if you normally need 100 million shares, BT Investment will only give 20 yuan to you, and then resell a part of the shares in your hand to a large investment company for 20 yuan, and the remaining shares will be their hard work...

In this process, BT investment does not even need to spend a penny, they can directly ask the large investment company to pay the 20 fee.

Empty glove white wolf, no capital business, this is the kind of company we are talking about.

What if MYBOOK does not agree to sell shares at a low price?
This is easy.

In Chou Country, is it not easy to handle an overseas start-up company without Chou Country background?
"If we don't accept investment, what methods do they usually use?"

"Well, it's hard to say, I guess they will probably find some small troubles first, if we still disagree..."

Well, Li Yu probably understands that this kind of company is like lice. Any company that is targeted by them will never give up until they suck a mouthful of blood.

It's really not easy to earn Lao Mei's money!

Li Yu somewhat understands why Lao Wang and the others are so interested in joining the MY mixed martial arts competition. If they can't establish a certain influence in the ugly country first and invest rashly, then they will not be skinned!
If you know it, you know it, but Li Yu is not someone who is casually sucked blood.

Soldiers come to block the water and cover them with earth. If the opponent comes to civilized, he will use civilized means to play slowly with the opponent, which is nothing more than throwing money.

If the other party is uncivilized, then Li Yu will simply spend money to invite the other party to see the Lord...

Anyway, it's all about spending money, and if he spends money to seek peace, he will still feel unhappy. In this case, it is better to spend money to kill the other party, which can solve the problem peacefully and feel better.

……

Ugly Country, Silicon Valley, BT Investment Company
As a well-known investment company in Silicon Valley, BT Investment is not only notorious, but also has brilliant results.

The two founders of the company, Steve Powell and Ichiro Kimura, have accumulated billions of dollars in just ten years by virtue of their superb business skills of buying low and selling high.

The reason why MYBOOK was targeted so quickly this time has a lot to do with Li Yu.

In BT Investment Company, the two founders, Steve Powell and Ichiro Kimura, have a clear division of labor.

Steve Powell is an aboriginal, has a strong local network, and is responsible for business on the bright side, such as contacting buyers of large investment companies, litigation and so on.

And Ichiro Kimura, the little devil of Japanese descent, is mainly responsible for some shady things, such as picking faults, threatening people, etc...

Being able to do business without capital in the ugly country, Kimura Ichiro's identity is naturally not easy.

During the day, he is a well-known investor in Silicon Valley, and at night, he is the head of the California branch of the Yamaguchi-gumi, a proper underworld leader.

The Yamaguchi group is not a fictional organization in the movie, but a real black society organization.

Not to mention the island countries, in the ugly country alone, there are more than 3000 official members of the Yamaguchi-gumi!

In the California branch, Ichiro Kimura has hundreds of people under his command...

As a leader of the underworld, Ichiro Kimura is naturally good at his hands, and he himself is also a master of judo and mixed martial arts.

Therefore, when Li Yu kicked UFC No. 1 Oka Takeshin of the island country with a kick, Kimura Ichiro completely remembered him.

If Li Yu is not in Huaguo, and the tentacles of the Yamaguchi-gumi's influence cannot reach Huaguo, Kimura Ichiro would want to directly find someone to depose Li Yu.

Fortunately, although Li Yu does not go abroad, the company he opened actually came to Silicon Valley!
"Here, it's my territory!"

Ichiro Kimura set his sights on MYBOOK, but he didn't act immediately.

Kimura Ichiro just arranged for people to watch the development of MYBOOK. If MYBOOK dies immediately, he will not even have to do anything. If MYBOOK develops well, he can easily collect a little interest from Li Yu...

However, Ichiro Kimura did not have much hope for the latter result, because people from Huaguo came to Chouguo to start an Internet company, and almost none of them succeeded, and he did not believe that Li Yu could succeed.

However, some things are so incredible. Not only did MYBOOK succeed, but the speed of success far exceeded imagination.

A scolding battle between Connor and Jose made MYBOOK popular in the mixed martial arts circle.

Immediately afterwards, Li Yu came up with another "Invitation to Battle" event, 2000 Apple mobile phones were given away for free, which added fire to MYBOOK!

Originally, I just paid attention to it casually, but I didn't expect to encounter a potential gold stock by accident. Ichiro Kimura was excited!

I can make a fortune again!
And it's still stealing money from the people of Huaguo, I'm a little excited just thinking about it!
After talking about the situation of MYBOOK with his partner Steve Powell, Steve Powell, who has an investment vision, also felt that MYBOOK had great potential, and the two quickly reached an agreement.

Steve Powell was responsible for contacting the buyers of large investment companies, and at the same time contacting MYBOOK, while Kimura Ichiro began to dig pits and mines secretly.

Kimura Ichiro is a professional in digging holes and laying mines, and he quickly formulated a complete set of service plans for MYBOOK.

He first arranged for a few people to attract new customers to the MYBOOK website according to the rules of the "Invitation to Battle". With his resources and means, he quickly got two of his subordinates into the top 1000, and several others ranked outside the top 1000. ...

Get ready for good news from Steve Powell.

It's just a pity that the good news did not come. MYBOOK directly stated that I am not short of money now, and I want to invest later.

I didn't even have a chance to quote, and I was rejected directly. Steve Powell said that I was very angry!
"Dude, don't be angry. There is an old saying in Huaguo, "You don't eat a toast, you'll be fined." When I give him some color, they will obediently beg us to invest..."

Kimura Ichiro had a confident expression on his face.

In a country full of freedom like Ugly Country, he is familiar with the rules of the game here, and he has countless ways to make a Chinese start-up company want to die.

Seeing Ichiro Kimura's confident expression, Steve Powell became interested immediately.

"Oh? You already have a plan?"

"Hahaha, of course, it's not that I haven't done anything these days..."

After all, Ichiro Kimura revealed his plan, and Steve Powell applauded after hearing it.

"Excellent! To play tricks and tricks, it still depends on you Asians!"

Ichiro Kimura accepted the compliment from his partner without any embarrassment.

Considering the rapid development of MYBOOK, Ichiro Kimura decided to make a quick decision in order to prevent other investment institutions from grabbing food.

Three days later, MYBOOK cashed in 1000 iPhones. This was because the express delivery in Ugly Country was too slow. If it was changed to Hua Country, the goods would arrive on the same day.

The two men arranged by Ichiro Kimura also received the courier, but after receiving the courier, they did not let the courier brother leave, but dug a hole from the bottom of the packaging box grandly, took out the iPhone packaging box, and stuffed it again A new Apple phone box.

After finishing the operation of stealing beams and changing posts, Ichiro Kimura asked the courier to knock on the door to deliver the goods again, and Ichiro Kimura arranged a camera to record the whole process.

The courier thought he had encountered a "professional counterfeiter" who pretended to receive fake goods and then sought compensation from the seller. Although he was contemptuous in his heart, he still cooperated obediently. Who asked the other party to give more.

Ichiro Kimura's operation is very professional. Not only did he change the position, he also hired a professional digital product appraiser to appraise the Apple mobile phone on the spot, and came to the conclusion that "the mobile phone is a refurbished second-hand product".

After recording the video, Ichiro Kimura was very satisfied with his masterpiece.

"Steve, send this video to the person in charge of MYBOOK, I believe they will know how to choose."

It was a pity for Ichiro Kimura to hand over the video to Steve Powell.

Compared with using his brain, he actually prefers to use a little violence.

But MYBOOK is still a shell company in Ugly Country, without even regular employees, even if Ichiro Kimura wants to use some violence, he has no place to use it...

After watching Ichiro Kimura's photography works, Steve Powell also had to admire his partner's professionalism.

"Don't worry, leave the rest to me."

With the video in hand, Steve Powell is confident again.

This kind of video can't do anything to MYBOOK, but it shows an attitude: If you don't invest in us, I will kill you!
For investment companies like theirs that do gray business, it is impossible to use normal business negotiations, and the effect of threats is far greater than the lure.

Soon, Cui Zhengkang, the person in charge of MYBOOK on the other side of the ocean, soon received an anonymous video and a call from Steve Powell.

Although Steve didn't say anything, he simply asked Cui Zhengkang if he would reconsider the investment plan of BT Investment Company, but a fool can connect the two things together.

This is the threat of Chi Guoguo!

Cui Zhengkang was quite speechless when he was in charge of a new project and encountered such a thing just after making some achievements.

He knew that it was always impossible for Li to be threatened, but after thinking about it, he still asked Steve's price.

"What is your investment plan?"

Hearing that Cui Zhengkang finally let go, the corners of Steve's mouth rose, and he laughed unabashedly.

"Mr. Cui, I just said that you will be very happy to accept our investment."

"Don't worry, the valuation we gave will definitely satisfy you."

"For $100 million, we only need 45% of the shares, how about it?"

Rao had heard about the greed of these vampires, but after hearing Steve's conditions, Cui Zhengkang still felt the veins on his forehead throbbing.

Among other things, MYLOOK is just a reward for 2000 Apple mobile phones, and it costs 200 million US dollars!

Coupled with other operating costs, Moyu Group has invested more than 400 million dollars in MYLOOK!

Even if it is purely based on cost accounting, you can only buy 100% of the shares if you spend $25 million.

But the accounts are not calculated in this way. The valuation of Internet companies mainly depends on users and development potential.

With the data and potential of 2 million users acquired by MYLOOK in just 600 months, the valuation of 1 million dollars is conservative!

If the price given by the other party is not much different from the valuation of 1 million, he thinks there is still a possibility of negotiation, but now...

After hanging up Steve's phone, Cui Zhengkang quickly reported the situation to Li Yu.

There is no way, he is just a high-level beater, he can solve normal business competition, but when encountering robbers, he can only let the boss find a way.

Li Yu also smiled after hearing the other party's offer, but this smile was a bit permeable.

"I see. I'll come to BT Investment to find a solution. You should consider solving the video problem first. What's your idea?" Li Yu asked.

Cui Zhengkang is still qualified as a senior beater, and he already has his own ideas about solving the credibility crisis brought about by the video.

"I think we can turn passive into active. Isn't there a courier in the video? I'm going to contact my contacts in Silicon Valley to find this courier..."

Cui Zhengkang had worked in Silicon Valley for a few years before, and he had some contacts there. His method was to find evidence of fraud by the courier and the other party, and then directly report to the police to arrest them.

How to say this method, it is not impossible, but it is too troublesome and time-consuming. The key is whether the other party will give MYBOOK such a long time?

Li Yu didn't dare to have too much hope for the police in Ugly Country.

It’s no problem if you let them draw their guns and empty their magazines, but who knows that such a trivial economic case will have to wait until the year of the monkey?

When they uphold justice, the grass on MYLOOK's grave will be three feet high...

Shaking his head, Li Yu directly rejected Cui Zhengkang's suggestion.

"We are a small company, and we cannot afford to go through judicial procedures to delay, and the other party obviously won't have that patience."

"Since they took the video, it's a waste to keep it in their hands. Don't wait for them to be exposed. Let's post it directly on MYLOOK."

"Let's say we received an anonymous video. Some users said they had received a fake Apple mobile phone. Didn't we have an invoice when we bought the mobile phone? Attach the invoice and tell the user that if you receive a fake mobile phone, please call the police as soon as possible. Let the local police investigate..."

After hearing Li Yu's arrangement, Cui Zhengkang was somewhat embarrassed.

Compared with Li Yu's simple and effective method, my own thinking seems too rigid.

Li Yu's work style has always been to simplify complex problems and solve simple problems on the spot.

This gap in thinking made Cui Zhengkang, who was a top turtle student, lose any sense of superiority in front of Li Yu, a half-hearted domestic college student.

Some people are destined to be bosses who can control the overall situation, and some people can only watch the few meters in the pot and plan carefully.

Feeling the pressure, Cui Zhengkang's fluttering feeling that he had just made a small achievement disappeared in an instant...

After sending Cui Zhengkang away, Li Yu called Gao Yun and asked him to arrange for someone to investigate the details of BT Investment Company.

……

That night, MYLOOK officially released the video taken by Ichiro Kimura on the website.

Not only that, Cui Zhengkang also arranged for someone to record a new video combined with this video, focusing on promoting the fact that the MYLOOK website sent 2000 Apple mobile phones to users.

2000 cell phones worth $200 million!

Although there are quite a few local tyrant Internet companies in Ugly Country, and they spend a lot of money on activities, there are not many companies that can give out prizes worth 200 million dollars at once...

What's more, this is only a small company that started 2 months ago!

Cui Zhengkang arranged for this video to be published on YouTube, Netflix and other video sites, and then spent a sum of publicity fees. The video itself has a certain popularity, and with marketing funds, it quickly became a small hit.

The small popularity of video also attracted a wave of traffic and users to MYLOOK.

It's human nature to like to take advantage, and ugly countrymen also like this kind of website with stupid people and a lot of money...

The next day, Kimura Ichiro, who was still sleeping on the bed with his big ocean horse in his arms, was woken up by the harsh ringing of his mobile phone.

When he got on the phone cursing, the expression on his face instantly became ferocious!

"idiot!"

"The video I worked so hard to plan has become a marketing tool for MYLOOK!"

Ichiro Kimura felt like his lungs were about to explode!

Steve Powell was also very angry, he felt his IQ was insulted!
As a well-known hungry wolf in Silicon Valley, he has never been the only one who took advantage of others, and this is the first time that others have taken advantage of him in turn!
"Kimura, I don't want to invest in this company anymore. I only have one request, which is to let this hateful Huaguo company go bankrupt!"

Steve gritted his teeth in disgust.

This is no longer as simple as a matter of face. In their business, reputation is very important!

Big investment companies are willing to hire them to do black work because they are interested in their abilities.

Steve Powell contacted Goldman Sachs Investment this time. He has already blown his mind in front of the Goldman Sachs manager. Now that he has been slapped in the face by MYLOOK, how can he still mess around in this business in the future?
