The rebirth of the wife and children

Shang Fuhai chuckled: "Sister Wang, I'm really tired. I've been in the car for 7 hours, and I just want to lie on the bed and sleep. If I had known this, I might as well take the high-speed rail to make it more comfortable."

Wang Qiong is still a bit regretful, but Shang Fuhai is right, taking a car is a kind of enjoyment, but taking a long-distance car is suffering.

After Zhang Lidong settled down Shang Fuhai and his party, he left here.

Maybe it was really tired, Shang Fuhai didn't dream at night, and woke up until dawn.

Zhang Yiming didn't know what to think. This time, he put the financing venue in the open meeting room of AVIC Building, the headquarter of Toutiao.

When Shang Fuhai brought Han Zhengyu and Chen Jingshu over, Zhang Yiming was already waiting at the main entrance of AVIC Building.

He was wearing a silver-gray slim-fit suit, a pair of pointed leather shoes on his feet, and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, which made him look a little more elegant.

"Boss Shang, I'm sorry last night. I was so busy that I couldn't get away. When I'm done, I'll punish myself." When Zhang Yiming saw Shang Fuhai, he came over and hugged him, his face full of apology.

Shang Fuhai suspected that he had misheard, and asked, "Old Zhang, don't you all punish yourself for three cups, why did you lower the price when you came here?"

Zhang Yiming was annoyed. He pointed to Wang Qiong, who was helping to greet the investors, and said bluntly: "Old Shang, you can either go up directly, or stay with me to pick up the guests."

Compared with previous rounds of financing, there are more investors today.

There is no way. It seems that many investors who had been hesitant before suddenly discovered that the few high-quality companies such as Toutiao have more investment value and return rate.

Especially this year, a lot of funds have been spilled, and there are really not many who can really get back the principal with interest.

"It's fine to pick up customers, we can't sell at all." Shang Fuhai committed the problem of poor mouth again, and was talking when he suddenly saw Zhang Yiming's fair face about to change color.

He quickly stopped and said, "It's fine for you and Sister Wang to be down there. I'll go up and greet people for you."

Shang Fuhai had no choice but to leave. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Wang Qiong clenched his fist and was eager to try.

There were more people in the meeting room. Shang Fuhai went in and saw that many of them were familiar, but couldn't remember their names.

He thought about not saying hello, but finding a place to sit and rest for a while.

But he was too lazy to move, and some people didn't want him to stop.

Someone was chatting with his peers about his recent achievements in the conference room, and when he turned his head, he saw Shang Fuhai. This person's eyes immediately became vivid, good guy, the 'God of Wealth' is here today!

That's right, in the eyes of these people, Shang Fuhai, who holds the shares of Toutiao in one hand, and the shares of Qutoutiao and China Securities in the other hand, is behind such companies as Paike Short Video, Yigou.com, and Yipay. , Baofei Convenience Store and other high-quality asset companies are just like the God of Wealth.

No, before Shang Fuhai found a place to sit down, there were two groups of people who got together just now. Shang Fuhai.

"Shang Dong, I'm Fang Jianhui from Noah Fund. This is my business card. I'll bother Shang Dong for a while today, but I don't know if the Qutoutiao shares in Shang Dong's hand are for sale?" Fang Jianhui asked directly when he came up.

Another person also introduced himself: "Shang Dong, hello, I am Zhang Ye from Qingshan Venture Capital, and I am mainly engaged in pan-entertainment and consumer investment. Qutoutiao, which Shang Dong invested in before, is in line with our company's investment positioning. If If Shang Dong really intends to sell it, we promise to give Shang Dong a satisfactory price."

"Hehe, I just said that when I went out this morning, I ran into a magpie screaming. It turned out to be good luck." Shang Fuhai was happy and flattered.

When Fang Jianhui of Noah Fund heard what Shang Fuhai said, he laughed out of face.

Zhang Ye from Qingshan Venture Capital also smiled along with him.

Shang Fuhai asked calmly: "Mr. Fang, Mr. Zhang, tell me what price you can give Qutoutiao?"

Fang Jianhui really didn't expect Shang Fuhai to be so direct, and asked the price on the spot.

This was different from what he had expected, and he was a little underprepared.

Instead, Zhang Ye from Tsingshan Venture Capital said directly: "Shang Dong, if you really intend to sell the shares of Qutoutiao, I promise to give you a satisfactory price."

Shang Fuhai glanced at Zhang Ye, with a smile on his brows, and said, "Mr. Zhang, what is the satisfactory price? To be honest, I am most satisfied with 100 billion U.S. dollars. If it is less than 100 billion U.S. dollars, I will Generally don't think about it, what do you think?"

Before Zhang Ye could reply, Zhang Yiming and Wang Qiong had already come forward with smiles.

When Shang Fuhai saw that the master was coming, he pointed to Zhang Ye and said, "Mr. Zhang, look at the master's family. Let's find a place to have a good chat after we finish our work. how?"

Zhang Ye quickly nodded in agreement.

His psychological price for Qutoutiao is between 13 billion and 18 billion. Of course, he is more inclined to underestimate.

As for the 100 billion US dollars that Shang Fuhai just mentioned, Zhang Ye pretended not to hear it.

Isn't this nonsense!

Opening your mouth is 100 billion U.S. dollars. Shang Dong, you are crazy about money. Do you know what 100 billion U.S. dollars is?

At the same time, under the personal auspices of Zhang Yiming, Toutiao’s E-round financing officially started.

Zhang Yiming stood on the temporary stage with a sweet smile on his face.

To be honest, he seems to have seen many people waving banknotes and asking him to accept them. He has experienced this kind of scene many times, but every time he has experienced it, he does not dislike it, but enjoys it.

Zhang Yiming on the stage had already raised the microphone. He pulled a bright smile from the corner of his mouth and said loudly, "Good morning, everyone."

"Today, we put Toutiao's E-round financing in AVIC Building, just to tell all our friends about our strength and confidence..."

Chapter 1170

In the audience, Wang Qiong moved to Shang Fuhai's side at some point: "Brother Shang, look at Yiming, is he getting more and more mature."

Shang Fuhai did not deny this, rolled his eyes, raised his eyebrows and said, "Sister Wang, how do you see me now?"

"you?"

Wang Qiong laughed 'puchi', she covered her mouth and whispered: "Brother Shang, you are fine in everything else, but you have too many eyes, if you can be more honest sometime, I can give you a score of 100, now It will be 90 points!"

Hearing what she said, Shang Fuhai also laughed: "So, I also learned well from Sister Wang. After all, Sister Wang has a sharp eye for people."

Wang Qiong saw through his essence at a glance, and asked him disdainfully: "Brother Shang, are you praising yourself, or are you belittling me?"

"How come, Sister Wang is always the best in my heart, otherwise we can cooperate in many ways?" Shang Fuhai patted a rainbow fart.

On the stage, Zhang Yiming began to talk about the next development plan of Toutiao. He said in a calm manner: "Our products will further increase overseas content output and explore in-depth cooperation with countries around the world... ..."

"Especially last month, we finalized a more in-depth cooperative relationship with Chairman Fu of Cheetah Mobile, including the acquisition of overseas users of Musical.ly by Jingcheng Yipai Network Technology Co., Ltd., a holding subsidiary of Toutiao, in the next two to five years. Within the short term, we plan to make the overseas version of Paike short video the NO.1 in the overseas short video field.”

This statement is a bit lofty, and Shang Fuhai was very convinced when he heard it. He thought about how you can say it even if I want to fool you.

Having said that, Zhang Yiming said a lot just now, but he didn't listen carefully to most of them.

Obviously, Wang Qiong didn't listen carefully, but Monk Fuhai was different, she had already known about it in advance, and she knew it well.

In addition, this round of financing, she will follow up with a symbolic amount of investment, and not too much. It is enough to maintain the current shareholding ratio of Heiner Asia in Toutiao.

But what Zhang Yiming said just now, Wang Qiong wants to buy a little bit of Yipai Network Co., Ltd., a joint venture between Paike Short Video and Toutiao, but so far, neither Zhang Yiming nor Shang Fuhai have any intention of letting go.

Thinking of this, Wang Qiong suddenly looked at Shang Fuhai beside him, his eyes became brighter, and asked: "Brother Shang, how is sister treating you?"

"Sister Wang, if you have anything to say, just say it directly, let's not do this." Shang Fuhai said quickly.

Now he is a little guilty of Wang Qiong's move, and he always plays the emotional card. Is this still the scope of business cooperation?

"I heard from Yiming that the partnership between the two of you caused a shortage of funds for the development of the overseas version of Paike's short video. Is there such a thing?" Wang Qiong approached Shang Fuhai and asked him in a low voice.

Shang Fuhai pondered for a moment, then nodded: "Sister Wang wants to get a share?"

"That's what I mean. The money is ready. Now it's up to brother Shang and Yiming whether you will give sister this chance." Wang Qiong didn't hide her purpose at all.

Shang Fuhai thought about it for a while, and said: "Sister Wang, look at this, let's finish today's headlines today, and take some time tomorrow to call Lao Zhang, and let's talk about it in detail, how about it?"

Wang Qiong smiled, her eyes seemed to be able to speak, she was very satisfied with Shang Fuhai's attitude, and said: "Okay, I am relieved to have Brother Shang's words, when you are free, tell me, sister Whenever you are called."

"..." Shang Fuhai remained silent. He couldn't answer these words anymore, and he was always on call. People who didn't know thought I wanted to do something!

During the time when Shang Fuhai and Wang Qiong were having a small meeting downstairs, Zhang Yiming on the high platform had already talked about the realization of Toutiao’s product traffic, rather than Toutiao’s advertising revenue.

Listening to Zhang Yiming grasping the pan-entertainment and future big IP concept derivation on the high platform and talking about it around, Shang Fuhai frowned slightly. This proposition is a bit big and requires more money. He was thinking that Zhang Yiming had really considered it. Or is it just talking about it, fooling the investors who came here today.

If it was the former, Shang Fuhai felt that he might be playing a big game of chess, but if it was the latter, it would be a bit wicked.

Looking at what Yiming said in this piece of enthusiasm, but it didn't seem like a joke, Shang Fuhai's thinking was a little twisted.

He looked at Wang Qiong beside him and asked, "Sister Wang, do you know about this matter, Lao Zhang is going to play big again?"

In Shang Fuhai's view, Wang Qiong and Zhang Yiming are so close, she should know something.

Sure enough, Wang Qiong nodded: "Traffic is realized. Now Tencent is working on such a thing. They are also in the exploratory stage. Toutiao has also accumulated a huge user base, but Toutiao's current profit model is relatively simple. Except Apart from the large amount of advertising revenue, other profit points are far inferior. Yiming once told me that he wanted to mobilize these accumulated user groups, and considered what method to use to realize them as soon as possible.”

"You mean, the idea he came up with is this big IP concept?" Shang Fuhai frowned.

Wang Qiong nodded: "It should be!"

Shang Fuhai shook his head directly: "Sister Wang, do you know how much money Lao Zhang will raise this time? He told me before that he would raise 10 billion US dollars, but I think according to his current plan, let alone 10 billion, 20 billion may not be enough!"

"Well, Yiming's plan is to raise 20 billion U.S. dollars. The specific result depends on the situation. He didn't tell you?" Wang Qiong asked him.

Shang Fuhai rolled his eyes directly, you are asking the question knowingly, woman, hehe, you really don't have a big heart.

"20 billion...hehe!" Shang Fuhai looked at Zhang Yiming who was swaying freely on the high platform, and he could only hehe.

Thinking about the last time I talked with Lao Zhang, when Lao Zhang said that financing 10 billion US dollars would be enough, Shang Fuhai believed his words, so when I told Chen Jingshu and Han Zhengyu these two times, they always let They are preparing $5 million in cash, and he will take half of this round of financing.

But now where?

Can I get a quarter?

"Sister Wang, Lao Zhang is not honest!" Shang Fuhai said.

Wang Qiong glanced at him slightly sideways, smiled, and said nothing else.

What I said, if they were all so sincere, how could Toutiao be so big today?Can Baofei Group grow so big?

"Okay everyone, I've said everything I need to say, so I won't talk nonsense, let's go straight to the topic, today I will also use Shang Dong's financing method, let's open a hidden bid..." Zhang Yiming said on the high platform.

Speaking of this, he even took a special look at Shang Fuhai, the meaning is self-evident.

Shang Fuhai was depressed, I was shot while lying down, you did it on purpose!

He himself knew that his method was immoral, but he was quick and he could still get a high price. He was used to this method and tried it without success, but he didn't expect Zhang Yiming to learn a lot today.

Shang Fuhai suddenly had a bad premonition, don't tell me that after today, other companies should learn from him when they refinance.

Do you want to name it 'Shang's Financing Method' and register a patent?

"puff"

Wang Qiong laughed directly, and she glanced at the scene. There were more than 100 people at the scene, and it was indeed faster to use this method.

If you agree with the value of Toutiao, if you are willing to pay a high price, I will take you to play, if you are not willing to pay, then forget it, we will play in different places, and no one will be delayed.

Zhang Yiming not only learned the essence of Shang Fuhai's trick, he also innovated.

For example, when Shang Fuhai raised funds before, it never set a consideration time for the investors involved in the investment. Zhang Yiming didn’t play like that. He set a maximum of 20 minutes. If the result has not been given after 20 minutes, it is considered automatic. give up.

This gives people an invisible sense of urgency, forcing investors with ideas to write a high price, or they will lose their chance in the first round.

As for the matter of several parties working together, this does not exist, and interests are their biggest obstacle.

Not long after, a staff member came to Shang Fuhai and Wang Qiong with a stack of thick A4 papers. Shang Fuhai didn't write it down, so he gave the paper to Han Zhengyu and said, "Kevin, you can discuss it with Manager Chen. How much is the right price."

Han Zhengyu thought his boss would give him a price, but he never expected that he would be lazy.

What is the right price to write?

Han Zhengyu and Chen Jingshu went to the side to discuss.

Wang Qiong took a piece of paper, without thinking at all, just waved it under Shang Fuhai's eyelids, and wrote down a series of numbers, followed by the word 'billion'.

Shang Fuhai was dumbfounded: "Sister Wang, you are so sure, why don't you think about it?"

Wang Qiong didn't care much at all, she said: "What are you thinking about, what was the valuation at the time of the last financing, 110 billion US dollars?"

Shang Fuhai nodded, it is such a price, that's right.

Wang Qiong shrugged relaxedly, and said naturally: "Isn't this the end, Brother Shang, it's normal to turn over two glasses, let's quote a high price, and the shares in your hand are more valuable, you need to think about it." Those capital parties who just came in to peck and eat?"

"..." Shang Fuhai was speechless, he felt that what Wang Qiong said made sense.

Thinking of this, he raised his hand to greet Han Zhengyu and Chen Jingshu next to him: "Kevin, Manager Chen, come here."

Han Zhengyu and Chen Jingshu don't know, so what's wrong with the boss?

Want to help them out?

"Boss!" The two shouted respectfully.

"Kevin, Manager Chen, how is your discussion going? Is there a price?" Shang Fuhai asked them.

Han Zhengyu and Chen Jingshu looked at each other, and Chen Jingshu nodded: "Kevin, tell me."

Han Zhengyu was too lazy to waste his saliva, he also directly wrote the number on the A4 paper, and turned it over to Shang Fuhai to take a look.

"308.1"
