Rebirth

With the spread of Yahoo’s final round of financing, it attracted the attention of many media and people.

Especially when some capital first contacted Yahoo, the news of Yahoo’s current valuation of $2 billion by Yahoo’s management immediately caused an uproar in the venture capital community.

Although I knew that Yahoo’s valuation would not be low, I didn’t expect it to be so high that Yahoo, which has not yet been listed, would be valued at 2 billion. If it really wants to go public, how much its market value can be.

Many people are ready to watch Yahoo’s jokes, thinking that Yahoo’s management is a bit swollen and crazy.

Li Feng also pays attention to Yahoo’s news every day, and from time to time he has several phone calls with Yahoo’s company representatives and Yang Zhiyuan and others to understand the situation.

For more than half a month, I have been in contact with the capital of various parties for many times, and have negotiated several times, but for the time being, I have not yet reached a conclusion. The highest quotation of capital has reached 1.6 billion US dollars.

The last time Li Feng had a phone call with Yang Zhiyuan and they joked that it was my turn to break the game.

Said to wait until the news that he was ready to accept a valuation of 2 billion US dollars came out, I don't know how the outside world will react.Will it be said that they are colluding with others? Wait, everyone laughed on the phone.

......

It is almost time for Li Feng to calculate. Yahoo’s financing has been discussed for a long time. It seems that it is time to end the farce. Then he thought that Silicon Valley and Los Angeles seemed not far away.

Isn’t Los Angeles and San Francisco the famous Route 1, just as a trip along Route 1, immediately began to arrange everyone.For the world-famous Route 1, Li Feng hasn't walked it.

It just so happens that Charlize is busy with the movie recently. Yes, with a lot of exposure recently, Charlize and Harry Berry are busy.

Charlize has a lot of opportunities to star in movies, although they are still supporting roles, similarly, Harry Berry seems to have entered a period of rapid career development.

One day later, there were two off-road vehicles in front and one in the back, and the RV in the middle was all bulletproof vehicles. Of course, it was only able to prevent attacks from ordinary firearms. The cars were all newly bought.

There were 2 security personnel in the front and back, 2 lawyers and 2 negotiators, plus the driver and Bob in the middle, and a group of 11 people drove out of their estate.After that, he drove out of Los Angeles and headed for San Francisco on Highway 1.

This time I went to help the platform, so Li Feng specially arranged a powerful pomp.

......

Just as Yahoo’s management was arguing with many venture capitalists and capitalists on Yahoo’s side in Silicon Valley, Li Feng and his party were walking slowly along Highway 1 towards Los Angeles.

Here, Li Feng and Yang Zhiyuan have all negotiated, and they only need to arrive within 2 days, so there is enough time to browse the scenery.

Although it is not more beautiful in the senses to travel from the north to the south because it is from the south to the north, Li Feng still sighed that this trip on Highway 1 was really worthwhile.

After coming out of Los Angeles, we headed towards San Francisco, passing Malibu and Santa Barbara along the way.

After all, these two places are too close to Los Angeles, and Li Feng did not look at it. However, Li Feng had asked the real estate company to focus on the development of these two places earlier. It is said that there are already projects in these two places.

Li Feng is very clear that these two places will be one of the most beautiful and most expensive areas in the United States in the future, and now it is a real estate business to make a profit without losing money.

......

After entering the Danish Village, Li Feng stayed for a few hours. After lunch, he browsed and tasted the Danish Songbook Hage style.

I won't mention the Hearst Castle afterwards. After all, I just visited, after passing through the famous Rösser National Park, visiting Elephant Beach, and watching the dense elephant seals resting on the beach, it opened Li Feng's eyes.

Next is Big Sur, which is known as the most beautiful section of Highway 1. During this period, the Li Feng motorcade stopped from time to time to browse the surrounding scenery. Elephant seals, redwood forest, cliffs, sea and blue sky formed a section Unique beauty.

On that day, I passed the magnificent and majestic Bixby Bridge, which is said to be the largest single-arch concrete bridge in the world.

This bridge appears in movies, TV, and commercials from time to time. It is also one of the most visited attractions on the coast of California and between cliffs.

Eventually, he arrived at the small town of Carmel, which is quite bohemian, and plans to live in this small town for one night. Li Feng is also quite curious about this small town.

It is said that the town refuses modernization and any form of advertising, prohibits the installation of neon lights, and eliminates fast food restaurants. Therefore, it is very rare to see McDonald's and KFC in the town.

......

In the early morning of the second day, I finished my style breakfast in the small town of Carmel, and then continued to start the team, but arrived at a section where Li Feng was speechless, the famous '17 Miles', which was a private trail. The only thing that needs to be paid on the highway is to buy tolls.

Li Feng was still thinking about the owner of this section of the road. It is estimated that which hidden family bought the pasture where this section of road is located. As a result, this section of road became a private land of others, and naturally the owner can charge a fee.

Li Feng also thought before that if the Hearst family did not donate the castle to the government, they could also set up tolls like the owner of 17 Miles. After all, it is said that all the vicinity of Hearst Castle was bought.

Next, although the scenery along the way was pretty good, it still felt average. The only thing was to stop at the respective Cape Lighthouse and Half Moon Bay State Beach for a while, took some photos, and finally arrived in San Francisco.

After eating and resting in San Francisco, the talents finally headed towards the destination of this trip-Silicon Valley.

......

At the same time, in the Yahoo meeting room, there were also fierce debates. The negotiation on market value and shares had been three days, but there was still no result.

After all, based on a valuation of 2 billion and 20% of the shares, this time it was a one-time financing of 400 million US dollars. This is all cash. It is not something a capital can eat, including Sequoia Capital, KPCB, IDG, Defengjie, etc. , Well, all old friends, all here.

"Jerry, I think you insist on not giving in. Don't you feel too disappointed? Yes, we are all optimistic about Yahoo, but it doesn't mean that we must invest in Yahoo, do we."

"It's true, everyone, I think you all see the development of Yahoo, and the popularity of Netscape has made everyone aware of the charm of the Internet, right?

I think you should be very clear that Netscape is only occupying the browser market, and I think the browser war has already begun in the future. We don’t know what the browser market will look like in the future, but I want you to It's all clear.

Yahoo has already occupied the Internet portal market. Our management believes that Yahoo’s future must far surpass Netscape. In fact, a valuation of only 2 billion does not mean Yahoo. We actually think Yahoo is underestimated.

Next, Yahoo will make big moves to further occupy the current market and open up new markets, such as markets in Asia and South America.

Yahoo's future is bright, and I assure you that your investment will have a great return."

Yang Zhiyuan was already very confident at this time, and he did not change his lust and talk to the big bosses.

......

Just as everyone entered the fierce debate again, Li Feng entered the conference room under the guidance of the staff.

"Wow, my Royal Highness, you are finally here. I thought you didn't care about Yahoo." Seeing Li Feng walk into the meeting room, everyone stopped arguing, but David Filo stood up first Hugged, then said with a smile.

"David, looking at your red face, it looks pretty good, everyone, hello, wow, so many old friends are here." Li Feng turned around and saw many familiar faces.

"John, your legendary son is finally here." Don Valentine said with a smile at this time.

"Thank you... you don't need to worry about me, just keep talking." Li Feng walked to the representative of his company after speaking.

"BOSS, you are finally here, please." Lewis stood up, asked Li Feng to sit down, and then stood behind Li Feng.

"Lewis, I have worked hard for you." Li Feng smiled back and then sat on the conference table.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Li Feng thought to himself, it's no wonder that the big figures in movies and TV like to make their final appearance, and the scenes that draw the attention of the audience are still very pretentious.

Just a dog-legged guy by his side, he said to everyone, "Holy Son is here..."
