I want to make headlines

Chapter 243
For Lei Jun's impression, Gan Jing based his research on the data.

Before 07, he had been committed to the development of Jinshan, but the valuation result of Jinshan's final listing was not satisfactory.

When the Internet wave came, Kingsoft was doing WPS to fight against Microsoft, and missed the golden age of development. Its iconic product Kingsoft Antivirus was overtaken by 360’s free killer, and its users dropped from the peak of 8000 million to 700 million.

At that time, he was the general manager of Jinshan in his 20s, Zhou Hongyi had just established 3721, Ma Huateng had just registered Tencent, Ma Yun was running for his China Yellow Pages, and Li Yanhong was still working as an engineer in Silicon Valley.

However, after 16 years of Jinshan career, Jinshan has become a second-rate Internet company, and those people have become industry leaders.

Now three years have passed, and Lei Jun has become an outstanding angel investor. It was only in April this year that he finally made up his mind to start a business again.

However, personally speaking, he is not short of money, and in terms of starting a business, no one is not short of money.

In 04, Joyo.com was sold for US$7500 million. Jinshan and Lenovo were the major shareholders. Lei Jun is said to hold 10% of the shares, and the profit was estimated to be more than US$700 million.

When Jinshan went public in 07, Lei Jun held 14.9% of the shares. When he returned to Jinshan as the chairman in July this year, the company's market value was 7 billion yuan, and his personal net worth was more than 33 million yuan, which is more than 4 million U.S. dollars.

During the angel investor period, Lei Jun invested in UC Youshi, YY Voice, Fanke Eslite, Zhihu, Dajie.com and other companies.

However, angel investment is not just an initial investment that can be left alone. For example, UC Leijun invested 400 million yuan to account for 20% of the shares. In order to maintain the shares, he will continue to increase after several rounds of financing.

Many of the companies he has invested in are deeply optimistic about him, and he can wait until the listing to earn the most profit. Now even if he started Xiaomi for the second time, Lei Jun would not kill the chicken to get the egg.

He expects to raise around $5000 million this year, and the size of the first round alone would account for most of his net worth, including stock.

However, it is the smartest way to do things with other people's money, which is why he came to see Gan Jing today.

Lei Jun was born as a code farmer and devoted himself to the enterprise. Before he came, Lei Jun only had a brief understanding of Gan Jing. He knew that he was a new domestic actor and that he had won the Cannes Best Actor award. As for the movie, he had never seen it.

But judging from the contact, the actor Fang said that he could have an investment of about tens of millions of dollars. Does he really have that much money?

"I always think that actors are more glamorous and beautiful. Well, Mr. Gan didn't give me such an impression." In fact, Lei Jun wanted to ask more about money. Looking at it visually, he hasn't seen that Gan Jing is rich yet. Man's style.

Gan Jing thought for a while, went through the information given by Chen in his mind, and truthfully stated his impression: "I think Lei always has the kind of spirit to slam the sky, um... I don't see it."

After one sentence, the two suddenly looked at each other and smiled.

"Mr. Lei, I'm an outsider. You have to persuade me to invest money today, and try to use words that I can understand." Gan Jing added tea to Lei Jun's teacup.

His attitude is very peaceful, he is neither as impetuous as a wunderkind, nor does he look up to a boss like himself - Lei Jun soon knew the answer.

"Standing on the tuyere, pigs can also fly. This is my experience in building Jinshan for more than ten years. Now, Xiaomi is standing on the tuyere." Lei Jun stared at Gan Jing, handed over the prepared materials, and said sincerely .

Hey, the sincere buff bonus of the code farmer.

Gan Jing nodded, took the document and looked down. It was Lei Jun's own analysis and outlook on the current situation of the mobile phone industry.

He looked at it for a while, then looked up again and said to Lei Jun who was drinking tea: "The writing is pretty good."

Lei Jun smiled and nodded.

"But I don't understand much." Gan Jing explained what a real layman is.

Lei Jun took a sip of tea and almost spit it out.

He took a deep breath and said, "How much money do you have?"

Gan Jing thought for a while and replied, "About 5000 million US dollars."

"Not as much as me... Uh, right." Lei Jun actually didn't listen carefully, and only realized halfway through the sentence, and said in surprise, "You're so rich!?"

"Not as many as you?" Gan Jing also disagreed with Lei Jun's reaction.

Taking another breath, Lei Jun just finished the last routine: "You definitely don't have as much money as me, so if you invest money, I can make money."

Huh, that sounds reasonable.

This is not as complicated as the information, and it is the simplification that Gan Jing likes. He smiled and said, "Can Xiaomi really do it? A first-class company?"

The first-rate company mentioned in these words is Lei Jun's regret, and Jinshan is only second-rate.

"Standing on the tuyere, pigs can also take off."

"What's more, Xiaomi will definitely not be a pig."

Gan Jing rubbed his nose and said frankly: "Boss Lei, you really lack persuasive words. However, I like to invest simple money, so count me in."

Simple money, this is what Lei Jun is pursuing now, and he doesn't want to put too much energy on raising funds.

"Mr. Gan, you won't regret it." These were the words after changing his position. Mr. Lei was now facing prospective shareholders, so he naturally wanted to make a sincere promise.

Gan Jing smiled: "This is what we expect together, and the follow-up professional details will be discussed by those professionals."

"Okay. We have already contacted some angel investors. The first round of financing should be completed before the end of the year. It is expected that mobile phones will be sold next year." Lei Jun briefly explained the plans. It's all in the data.

"That's a toast to Mr. Lei. We'll talk about this today. I'll go back and find someone to go through the contract process again." Gan Jing said.

Lei Jun nodded, had a drink with this neat guy, and didn't realize until after he left that this guy didn't even have manpower, so he had to find another person to negotiate and sign the contract.

What a strange person...

Lei Jun didn't know whether to cry or laugh. If he invested money according to this logic when he was an angel investor, it would be really fun.

"Hey, Old Chen, find me a group of reliable people, I will use it to discuss financing." On the way back, Gan Jing was contacting Chen Huihong.

"Ah? Is this the investment?" Chen Huihong was taken aback on the phone.

"That's right, what's the fuss about it?" Gan Jing replied.

"No, hey, let me tell you, it's too easy for you to vote. Don't you have to talk about a few more rounds? Why are you going to vote like this? What do you like?" Chen Huihong asked a series of questions.

The information about Lei Jun was collected by him for Gan Jing. He had seen those things, but he judged that Xiaomi was not reliable. He never thought that Gan Jing would invest money just for chatting.

What kind of ecstasy soup was poured into this?
Gan Jing thought for a while: "I think Lei Jun is quite a good person, better than the founder of the company I invested in the United States. His aura is reliable."

Chen Huihong had no words to respond to this answer, and only stayed at Gan Jing's home to persuade him face to face.

……

Gan Jing is a rather willful person, not to mention that investment matters do not match his work as an actor, so Chen Huihong's persuasion is bound to be ineffective.

This matter continued in the helplessness of Chen Huihong. According to preliminary estimates, Gan Jing invested 1000 million US dollars and accounted for 4% of the shares.

This ratio is based on other venture capital institutions that have also been approached. That is to say, Xiaomi, which was just established in April this year, has reached a valuation of 4 million US dollars in more than half a year.

According to Lei Jun’s follow-up estimates, Xiaomi should conduct another round of financing next year. If Gan Jing’s shares do not want to be diluted, additional investment will be required at that time.

Of course, this is a follow-up.

After confirming the investment intention, Gan Jing handed over all these matters, and the negotiation of the investment contract was once again outsourced, but he thought in his heart that he needed to set up a company in China to handle these matters.

Scripts, music, Beijing opera, in the first ten days of October, Gan Jing was immersed in these items, and his life was extremely regular.

Breakfast, feed the dog, open the voice, first Beijing opera and then songs.

Lunch, dog feeding, script, poring over the story.

Dinner, feeding the dog, script, reciting lines and reciting the lines.

Hmm... The most regular thing in regular life is to feed the dog.

Now Gouzi is addicted to the game and can't extricate himself. According to Gan Jing's communication with it, it seems that it has gradually become famous in the game, but this state is still a bit worrying.

Gan Jing checked on the Internet, and it said that there is a professor surnamed Yang who is very good at getting rid of Internet addiction. Gan Jing can't ask someone to come and get rid of a dog, but if he wants to learn more, he can try to do it himself.

This idea floated up in his mind, and then was covered up by the concentrated study of the script.

Until October NO.20, the opening ceremony of the crew of "Flying Swords of the Dragon Gate" will start on this day.

The main shooting location of this film will be in HB Tianmo Film and Television City, and the location is a desert.

When the film’s original title had not yet been confirmed, the film crew came to the desert where the filming location had already been determined to be filmed, and accidentally found two stone tablets, which were old, and the words “dragon”, “gate”, “fly” and “jia” could be vaguely seen, and the decision was made immediately. Adopt this as the official title of the film.

People who make movies sometimes talk like this, so it's not surprising that Gan Jing is concerned about the grand opening ceremony.

Director Tsui Hark, producer Sun Hebin, the leading role of the Mainland Three Musketeers and many participating actors, including a few representatives of management, and a number of miscellaneous people in the field and drama, the momentum is quite large.

It is worth mentioning that the security guards used by the crew this time are Yangcheng Hongdun Security Service Co., Ltd., which is also the result of Gan Jing's recommendation.

The tribute table was in front, and incense candles, candle stands, tribute fruits and pig heads were arranged on it. Director Tsui Hark delivered a speech, and then everyone offered incense according to their seniority to pray for auspiciousness.

Zhou Xun, Chen Kun, and Gan Jing, these are the three people who offered incense after the director. Zhou Xun was in the middle, and the two male stars were beside them.

This kind of behavior is undoubtedly an impression in the eyes of caring people. Gan Jing's status is not weak. Although this is only his second film in China, he is like a strong dragon.

Gan Jing lived up to such a strong impression of a dragon, and soon, he showed the action of entering the play after intensively studying the script these days.

On the day of the opening ceremony, we only worshiped God, ate, communicated and rested, and the filming officially started on the second day.

However, after filming for a whole morning, before Gan Jing started filming, he found director Tsui Hark during his lunch break.

The two had a brief conversation during the opening ceremony yesterday, but it was only superficial politeness, and now it is considered a formal exchange.

"Director Xu, Gu Shaotang's lines are a bit poor, he lacks energy." Gan Jing only got to the point with a few polite words.

Tsui Hark was obviously taken aback, never expecting to meet Forrest Gump on the first day of filming to complain about other actors.

Gu Shaotang is played by mainland singer Li Yuchun, an actor hired by the management for the sake of popularity. Tsui Hark is not very satisfied with the shooting of her in the morning, but this feeling is still in his heart.

It's just that no matter how dissatisfied I am, it's no more dissatisfied than Gan Jing's fiddling on the first day of filming.

What does it mean?What about provoking the authority of the director?

Tsui Hark is a great director with rich experience and has encountered countless things. At this moment, facing Gan Jing, he didn't even frown, and said, "I will tell her."

"Also, if we ask a singer to play this role, will it be a play?" Gan Jing was really blunt.

Even though Tsui Hark was well-bred, he couldn't help but change his face at this moment.

Want to change roles on the first day?How big of a celebrity is this?

"I will teach her." Tsui Hark, a great Hong Kong director, has a serious expression and the same tone.

Gan Jing nodded and went to get his lunch box.

"Gan Jing, come, come, my sister has an extra meal for you." Outside the nanny's car on the other side, the assistant prepared the food, and Zhou Xun was chatting with Chen Kun.

In the morning, there is Chen Kun's scene, and the two are communicating.

"What did you talk to Director Xu about just now? Did you know each other before?" Chen Kun gulped down a cold drink in his hand. The clothes he wore in the scene made him sweat all over in this weather.

"Oh, I don't know, I don't think Li Yuchun's acting is suitable, so I went to talk to Director Xu." Gan Jing said lightly.

puff! ! !
Chen Kun took a sip of cold drink and squirted it out. Fortunately, Zhou Xun hid quickly, otherwise he would have been tortured.

The two looked at each other, Zhou Xun raised her voice: "You are stupid!" Then she looked around and saw that they were all her own people, but she lowered her voice, "It didn't make you like this on the first day if you were asked to communicate! Are you stupid?"

Chen Kun wiped his lips with a napkin, shook his head and sighed, "How did you get out?" He then said to Zhou Xun, "How did you sign him?"

Facing the doubts and ridicules from the two, Gan Jing's face remained normal: "I really don't think she is suitable. I didn't feel it when I read the script and the names of the people. When the filming started today, the aura is obviously wrong. If it's not right, I will say, That's it."

Say no, say no...

but……

The two looked at each other again. Is this how the Cannes Best Actor came to be?Could it be that this guy is a bully abroad?
