Global Monopoly of Technology

After these 12 companies were exposed at this summit, they really became the darlings of capital. The industry's new stars, many VC institutions have quietly started to pay attention to these 12 companies and further evaluate their investment value.

Even the Silicon Valley technology giants have paid attention to this. Although these 12 companies are in their infancy, they are in areas that are currently hot and represent a trend and future.

The strategic investment departments of technology giants such as Microsoft and Google can't help but want to invest a sum of money to occupy the pits and protect the bottom. In the future, if they do not stand out in the fierce competition, they will not be completely eliminated.

Well, if you can't beat you, then join you, you may win, but I won't lose.

In technical terms this is ... hedging.

On the main stage of the summit, Luo Sheng walked back and forth calmly and said calmly: "Digital drives the future. Looking at the investment direction of Shengfeng Capital in recent years, it is not difficult for you to find that artificial intelligence has become our most concerned field. This is also reflected in the product lines of the Blue Coast and Bluestar Technology, whether it is the hardware of the Blue Coast series of Blue Coast processors or the open source deep learning framework of Bluestar Technology in software. We have chosen R & D + investment and followed the path of diversified development. "

"We believe that the computing power required for different AI tasks is not the same, so we must provide a variety of software and hardware co-optimization solutions with different characteristics in order to improve our customer experience."

Speaking of which, Luo Sheng on the stage stopped and bowed his head for a moment, then raised his eyes to the audience: "Today, Shengfeng Capital has developed the habit of investing in at least 170 startup technology companies every year. In terms of investment amount, it has remained basically between US $ 100 million per year, and the total investment of the 12 start-ups introduced above last year exceeded US $ 2.7 billion. "

Many practitioners in the field are looking at each other, which means that each of the 12 companies has received an investment of US $ 225 million from Shengfeng Capital, and has also received orders from super customers such as the Blue Coast and Bluestar Technology. Both capital and business support to support its rapid growth.

In contrast, other entrepreneurs have broken legs for financing or for business. Most of the final results of desperate storytelling are investors and customers shaking their heads to deny.

Simply envy the rhythm of envy.

Luo Sheng: "... We have reason to believe that with the blessing of investment in these cutting-edge technologies, we will soon be able to bear fruit in multiple technical fields such as artificial intelligence, cloud computing services, and IoT devices, and further improve our ecology. Layout and build a perfect technical moat, we look forward to everyone's joining. "

The opening speech, which lasted for nearly half an hour, was over, and there was a warm applause. The speech was not long, and it can be said that Luo Sheng was showing off.

But also full of dry goods.

Next, the founders of 12 companies such as Lingyun Yun have stepped on the main stage of the summit, and each has 5 ~ 8 minutes to further tell their respective careers and tell their stories.

For industry insiders and VCs, it seems that they have found the direction of struggle and the focus of investment.

What Luo Sheng is doing, just follow the investment.

Then there is the exhibition conference. Shengfeng Capital provides the venue and platform for the major entrepreneurial teams to participate in the bridge. They will show what they are doing at the three-day summit.

This year's VC Summit has attracted more than 800 entrepreneurial teams in the technology field to participate, with a clear purpose.

Sell ​​your products, sell your own stories, impress investors, and get angel financing.

The VCs who came to the scene today are also grabbing a large number, and the host Shengfeng Capital will not say anything. Softbank, Goldman Sachs, Sequoia Capital and other well-known VC institutions are also listed.

In addition to attracting the attention of investors, there are still many teams hoping to win the favor of customers and increase their popularity.

After all, the impact of Shengfeng Capital's Venture Capital Summit is growing day by day. Like Luo Sheng, who personally came out today as a platform for those 12 start-ups, he became the darling of the industry and capital overnight, a rising star.

However, the most excited people are the people who eat melon, especially those who participated in this kind of event for the first time. There is a sense of freshness everywhere. It can touch some technology products or popular cutting-edge ideas that cannot be touched in daily life.

Although they all came to the world with a mentality of eating melons, there is no doubt that they have benefited a lot. At least for the ability to broaden their horizons and cognition, it may not be visible in the short term, but in the long run It is also a great help to improve one's self. Spending hundreds of thousands of tickets to see the cutting-edge technology is better than watching what concerts will improve oneself.

Almost 99% of the melon-eating crowd who came to the scene were Luo Sheng's **** fans. The fans gave him the title of "bishop of science and technology" and claimed to be a believer of His Majesty. Luo Sheng never came out to deny it. Anyway, after so many years, everyone started from fun for the sake of fun, and now they are used to becoming natural.

...

Nowadays, the pre-stage grand event is continuing fiercely. With the passage of time, the news that entrepreneurial teams have won the favor of the VC at the scene and received financing, and media reporters who came to the scene also took the place here. The news continued to spread, and there were also a large number of science and technology UP masters in the eating crowd to record videos on the scene, both domestically and abroad.

The summit at the scene became hotter.

However, Luo Sheng has retired to the backstage. After the opening speech, he did not show up in the public view and did not accept any media interviews.

In an office in the background, Luo Sheng and Meng Qiu, the general manager of Shengfeng Capital, are here.

"Last year's investment projects were generally very good. I have generally understood the companies that have invested, and more than a third are high-quality investment projects with broad prospects."

When Meng Qiu listened to Luo Sheng's outspoken performance with a humble smile, he did not say things like “duty, responsibility, etc.” Facial sympathy, praise and disgrace made Luo Sheng appreciate it more.

One-third of the invested companies have a lot of imagination. This is a very good result. Not to mention that all of the companies in this one-third can eventually achieve results, even if 10% of them can finally stand out from the crowd. The money that was lost last year can even earn all the profits, and achieve the strategic goal of building a technical moat.

Even taking a step back, as long as the 12 high-profile exposure companies can succeed, even if more than a hundred startups in the back fail, it will be a great success for Shengfeng Capital.

After all, Luo Sheng's investment layout is not the specific company, but the layout of the entire track. As for who is competing on the track, it really does not matter.

"General Luo, we have noticed that Intel Corporation has continued to increase investment since last November. This year, it has been more frequent. It has started frequent acquisitions around the world. During this period, Shengfeng Capital also had direct relationships with Intel. Collision. "Meng Qiu immediately talked about some important things in the recent period and reported orally like Luo Sheng.

But for a moment, Meng Qiu added: "Intel's various performances over the past few months ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ seem to me quite anxious and seem to have encountered some major troubles, but from the stock market point of view Intel's current market value is only 104.1 billion U.S. dollars, which has been declining for the past six months. I am afraid that it will soon fall below the 100 billion U.S. dollar mark. "

After hearing that, Luo Sheng could not help laughing: "Intel, the invincible technology giant in the personal computer era, has lost extremely badly in the mobile chip era in the past five years, compared with today's booming Qualcomm company, and facing the Blue Coast The competition of the emerging giants must also be constantly thinking about how to restore the glory of yesterday, and it is no surprise that they have frequently acted recently. "

It is not surprising that Luo Sheng collided with Intel. After all, he had already started the Cell chip business layout a few years ago, intending to glimpse Intel's hinterland, and kick the x86 architecture of the toothpaste factory off the throne. Its dominance achieved the goal of the new king ascending the throne.

However, the old international manufacturers such as Intel do not mean that they can be picked up. The other party is also improving and developing.

Luo Sheng looked at Meng Qiu and asked, "Yes, you just said that there was a collision between Shengfeng Capital and Intel. In which field did it stand up?"
