Wind Rises 2005

Chapter 366 So It Was This Scumbag!
Hearing Ma Liang's promise, Xu Xin nodded in satisfaction: "Haha, thank you, Mr. Ma!

Make an appointment later, and I will invite you to dinner alone, and then we will continue to talk in detail! "

Ma Liang's appearance today was an accident, she was not prepared at all, even if she wanted to talk about it, she couldn't talk about it.

Turn around and let the investment managers below do the research in detail, so that you can know yourself and the enemy, and be targeted.

"No problem! Whenever it's convenient for Mr. Xu, I'll do it," Ma Liang agreed happily.

When he first started his business, he would definitely not be so anxious to find investment.

First of all, the [Red Lips String Fragrance] business has a very strong cash flow, and it is not short of the money of the Angel Wheel.

Secondly, for a project made by a novice grassroots entrepreneur, it is impossible for an investment institution to offer a high valuation.

After earning the first pot of gold later, and slowly fiddled with [Liupo Malatang], Ma Liang didn't need to dilute his shares in the early stage in exchange for the meager start-up capital.

The only financing was agreed to because of Mr. Chai's face.

I originally thought that I was already financially free anyway, so I could live my whole life in a relaxed and happy life by doing catering and starting a business in a down-to-earth manner.

But there was another moth in Miss Jiang's family, which put him under a lot of pressure for no reason.

People live in the world, after all, they cannot transcend everything.In the end, Ma Liang was forced to go to Liangshan, and he worked hard to start a bigger career.

So I founded [Gale Capital] and started to play venture capital, and everything became a matter of course.

It's just that his business has reached the level it is today, and he can start thinking about financing.

There is no shortage of start-up capital at the beginning, so the angel round or even the A and B rounds are meaningless.

But after the business becomes bigger and stronger, if you want to grow your wealth quickly, financing and listing is the best way.

Just like Chinese fast food [Real Kung Fu], it was fired to a huge valuation of 50 billion before it was listed.

If the founder or major shareholder cashes out casually, it will be a wealth of one billion to eight billion.

If you rely on selling fast food to make profits and then share dividends, and want to put so much money in your own pocket, you don't know how long you will have to wait.

The financing and listing are not all for the purpose of collecting money, but for the better development of the enterprise.

Once it becomes a listed company, it is equivalent to having a passport and amulet, which will make it convenient for you to do anything in the future, and you don't have to worry about being easily manipulated.

Of course, the most important thing is to enable enterprises to have super capital integration capabilities.

In the future, whether it is doing new projects or investing in new fields, there will be enough channels to raise operating capital.

But any business owner, as long as there are no special circumstances and has greater ambitions or pursuits, will definitely choose to take the road of financing and listing.

Ma Liang is no exception. For his venture capital career, he must accumulate enough capital faster.

So it’s time to include financing in the plan.

It’s just that in order to have better negotiating weight, I decided to wait for the [Yellow Braised Chicken and Rice] project to be successful before starting to talk to investment institutions.

You know, the logic of doing business is completely different from the logic of investing.

When capital invests in projects, they don’t care whether your business is profitable or not. They only care about how fast and how big you can develop after investment.

I don't care about profits and dividends at all, I just think about how many times the return of the project will be in the next round of financing.

Sometimes the development of the project is not strong, and the capital will urge the founder like a life.

Even when the project is not doing well, entrepreneurs are forced to sign a VAM agreement, just to ensure the return of investment institutions and to fully demonstrate the cold-blooded and ruthless capital.

That's why Ma Liang wouldn't be so stupid. He had to wait until he was strong enough before considering financing.

Of course, for a venture capitalist like Xu Xin, a more secure approach is usually adopted, which is to make a game.

It's like inviting Mr. Chai here today just for this purpose.

When Ma Liang was thinking about how to carry out the financing plan in the future, he saw the door of the box was pushed open from the outside, and a group of four people walked in.

"President Xu, I'm really sorry, I'm late, please forgive me!"

The speaker had a square face, slightly curly hair, dressed very casually, but looked extraordinary.

Judging from the way he greeted Xu Xin, the venture capital queen, he must be a big boss.

Ma Liang recognized this person at a glance. After spending so long in Shanghai in his previous life, how could he not know about Zhang Suyang, the investment boss of Shang Beach and IDG's partner.

We must know that without Zhang Suyang's angel investment, Ctrip might have been obsolete back then.

Without the successful listing of Ctrip and Home Inns, there would be no Ctrip Four Gentlemen, let alone Sequoia Capital (Huaxia) and "Dongxie" Shen Nanpeng.

As one of the first batch of investors in China, Zhang Suyang can be regarded as a godfather in the venture capital circle of Shanghai.

Logging into Nasdaq with the two projects of sending Ctrip and Home Inns is enough to make him stand out from the crowd.

Only Xu Xin greeted him politely: "Mr. Zhang, even if you are talking about outsiders, we have just arrived not long ago."

"Hello, Kathy! Long time no see." At this time, a beautiful woman next to Zhang Suyang also greeted enthusiastically, and walked towards the venture capital queen as she spoke.

Xu Xin hurriedly stepped forward and hugged each other gently: "Yes, Helen, it seems that we haven't seen each other for nearly a year!"

The Helen in her mouth is called Huang Peihua in Chinese, and she is also a giant.

Huang Peihua is the second generation of a typical Sin Chew elite family. He went to prestigious schools all the way from junior high school, and then went to Oxford University.

After graduation, she went to Silicon Valley and joined GGV (GGV Capital) as a partner of the fund.And as early as 2003, it invested in Alibaba, which can be described as a momentary moment.

"Mr. Xu, you are more energetic than when you were eating last time!" Another handsome man in a suit also took the initiative to say hello.

Xu Xin responded happily: "Sam, you are still so good at complimenting people as always!"

The reason why she calls each other by English names is because the identities of the two who came with Zhang Suyang are very special.

Huang Peihua is originally an elite in Xingzhou, and this man named Sam is not inferior to her at all. He is also a young talent from Xiangjiang.

Sam's Chinese name is Li Yongjin. He not only obtained a bachelor's degree in computer engineering with first-class honors at Hong Kong University, but also studied at the Sloan School of Management of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and obtained an MBA degree. He is also a member of the Australian Institute of Certified Public Accountants.

After graduation, he has been working in the world's top 500 or large financial institutions, and the positions are very high, and the beginning is the peak.

His study and work experience can be regarded as a standard elite template, with a halo all the way.

Li Yongjin is currently a director of JAFCO Asia, responsible for all investment businesses of the fund in the Greater China region.

Just last year and this year, under his lobbying and maneuvering, JFC Asia teamed up with two international venture capital companies, TDF and KPCB, to inject nearly 5000 million US dollars into PPG shirts twice, which shocked the whole Shang Beach.

I have to say that Xu Xin, the queen of venture capital, has enough face to invite giants to a dinner.

"Kathy, I have called everyone, even the founder of the project." Zhang Suyang smiled triumphantly at Xu Xin, and then introduced,
"Wang, this is the woman behind Wahaha, Netease, and ChinaHR, the CEO of Capital Today."

The man he introduced is the protagonist of today, and he is also the target of this capital bureau's transaction.

Seeing the last young man wearing a sweater and jeans, who looked carefree and somewhat artistic, came forward, and then he said hello: "Mr. Xu!"

He didn't talk much, and there seemed to be a trace of rebellion left in his body.

"President Wang, you're welcome. I've wanted to have a chat with you for a long time." The other party's attitude was a little cold, but Xu Xin didn't care, and then introduced Ma Liang and the others.

"Get to know him, this is Mr. Chai Jin of Tianhao Capital.

The one next to Brother Chai, I believe everyone will be familiar with it, [Gale Capital], Marlon, President Ma. "

Officer Chai was busy greeting all the bigwigs, and his attitude was very enthusiastic.

Don't look at Boss Chai's big business, but he doesn't have much accumulated connections in the venture capital circle and the top capital circle.

So at the moment, it is very important to try to expand his [Tianhao Capital] network.

But Ma Liang stood there dumbfounded, looking at the last literary youth speechless.

Because not only did he know this person, but he was also very familiar with him.When I was a divorce lawyer in my previous life.He also specially studied the other party's case.

Looking at the guy in front of him, he couldn't help but secretly complained in his heart:
Shit, it turned out to be this scumbag!
