Vince Carter was stunned.

It seemed that he had gone through some dreamy process just now. He went to the Four Seasons Hotel to wait for friends who had in-depth exchanges.

I happened to see a friend who was bored and asked him to play together.The kid even recognized Carter, adored his dunks, and said that his dream in the future was to be a financier, and basketball could become his hobby.

Carter was also very playful, and the two played around, and then saw the child's father walking down.

Seeing his son playing with strangers, he was taken aback, then recovered, and even played with a football star.Moreover, Vince Carter, who is currently on the rise in the NBA, became interested immediately, and after an introduction, he asked the core meaning.

"Hey, Vince, are you interested in investing in my company? My company has just been established, but I believe it will become a very good Internet company in the future, I am sure." The child's father smiled and introduced to Carter, "I The name of his company is Google, and he co-founded it with a friend. It is currently soliciting investment, and some investors have already started."

"Google?" Carter shook hands with the other party, and was stunned. This... It's rare that he looked confused, and he really couldn't predict it.

He actually met the founder of Google at the Four Seasons Hotel. Of course, if he hadn't played a game with the Lakers, he wouldn't have met this person.

"I've never heard of Google," Carter added, "So, you often hold meetings here? I mean, you often leave children downstairs in the hotel."

"Sometimes I can't help it. I have to balance work and life. It takes time." The parents were very helpless, "But thank you very much today. I believe you are a kind person and a player with investment thinking. I have noticed that NBA stars especially It is the ability to invest in new players, you should be one of the best, if not one of the best."

"Everyone's standards are different. Maybe I'm lucky." Carter laughed. "I've decided that I can invest in your company. Would you like me to visit your company? Even if it's just a start-up company."

"No problem, how about tomorrow morning? You have to make a decision quickly, there is only one chance to invest."

If it were someone else, he would have regarded the man in front of him as a liar and left by himself.But Carter is different. He knows how big a company Google will be in the future and is willing to spend money.

"Okay, how much can I invest at most? How much money do you need?" Of course Carter wants to get more shares, but if Google has a good enough plan, the equity it can sell out in the initial stage will be very limited, but the valuation will be relatively low.

Google will be valued at hundreds of billions of dollars in the future. If Carter invests $100 million, it should be able to sell for hundreds of millions of dollars in the future.

"The maximum is only US$100 million, and we can't give away too many shares."

"Tomorrow morning, if it is suitable after reading it, I will pay directly, and I can increase the specific amount." Carter hit the snake with the stick, hoping to earn more.

With such an opportunity to make a fortune, Carter would definitely not miss it.

Thanks to the team for losing to the Lakers, and thanks to Tyra Banks and Ashley for setting their date at the Four Seasons Hotel.

Big luck.Carter took a deep breath, full of strength again, and didn't need to sleep at night.

I walked quietly twice to the place of two friends, and I still have endless energy.

The next day, it was very difficult to negotiate the investment terms with the two founders of Google.

Carter received $200 million in original stock.

"Vince, why do I feel that you are more optimistic about Google than us?" Larry Page and Sergey Brin were confused.

They know that Google's prospects will be good, and if it does well, it should be a large company.But now the most powerful Internet companies are giants like Microsoft and Yahoo. Google is just a start-up company and is still attracting angel investment.

Vince Carter turned into an angel and wanted to spend 500 million US dollars, but was rejected by the two founders. They were not too short of money.They need to exchange company shares for more resources. This is the meaning of angel investment.

The original intention of attracting investment is not pure money, but available resources, all resources that can make the company grow stronger, this is the real angel investment.

Carter can't force it, after all the contracts are signed.He just put the contract in his bag without going through Dan Fagan and John Mucci, neither of whom participated in Carter's investment.

"You two, I will put away this contract and take it out after 10 years. He should make me hundreds of millions of dollars, I believe." Carter expressed his confidence in Google.

Even though he was telling the truth, the two founders didn't believe it, "If we can earn more than 10 times the investment ratio, our company is already very successful."

Most companies end up failing, and not every angel investment can succeed.It is even said that most of them are failures.

"Vince, have you considered playing in Los Angeles? There are more investment opportunities in Los Angeles than in New Jersey, of course, maybe more than New York. New York is all about financial investment, players can't play. It's better to go to Los Angeles, there are enough new players here. industrial investment."

"Maybe, after this season, I will jump out of the contract. Then I will consider the city and investment issues." Carter responded with a smile.

The most powerful point of Dan Fagan is that he doesn't know how to convince the Nets management to give Carter a 3-year contract, and the last year is still a player option.Carter can choose to jump out of the contract and get the maximum salary in advance.The Nets can only keep Carter after matching the contract.

Now Carter has not announced that he will jump out of the contract, and it will not be too late to think about it after the playoffs.Dan Fegan is already working on the contract with Joe Taub.Dan Fagan has always wanted to get another big contract. Garnett's super contract, he didn't get a share of the pie, and he was very upset. He also wanted to get a more exciting contract. Joe Smith's contract has a lot to say.

"Vince, in order to stabilize military morale, you did not announce your decision to opt out of the contract. I respect your choice. But I suggest you communicate with the team first to save the team from using up all the salary space." Dan Fagan has watched the entire Nets team Regarding the contract situation, there are a lot of players whose contracts expire this year.

Everyone wants to get a big contract, no wonder Jason Williams and Robert Pack are so desperate.

"Wait until the regular season is over."

At the end of the regular season, the Nets ranked third in the East, behind the Bulls and Pacers, then the Heat and Hornets, and the Hawks ranked sixth, and they will meet the Nets again...

In seventh place is the Knicks, and then the Cavaliers, catching the last bus of the playoffs.The Magic and Wizards both won 42 games and still failed to reach the playoffs.

The top four in the West are the Jazz, SuperSonics, Lakers and Spurs, followed by the Suns, Trail Blazers, Timberwolves and Rockets.

Catch and fight, start now.
