Sprinkle coins every day

"Okay, Meng Wang is also going to collapse!!!"

Of course, some netizens retorted, "Speaking of the file transfer function, icq is the originator of this aspect, right? Everyone has used icq for office work for more than ten years. Why did no one worry about this before?"

"That is, can it be said that Germination's bottom line can be lower than Tengda's?"

"Tengda: It's none of my business, don't @我..."

Tengda, who has been paying attention to the development of the situation, is indeed trembling when he sees the flames of war suddenly burnt to the "file transfer" function.

The city gate catches fire, which brings disaster to the fish in the pond.

As netizens said, when it comes to the "file transfer" function and the collection of photo albums, Tenda is the originator of this aspect, especially in the PC era, only the icq space can store countless photos.

That is the youth of a generation.

If someone uncovers this old account, then Tengda will not be able to clear it up.

The second master of the original space-time also generously admitted that Tenda has mastered the data of nearly one billion users' circle of friends, photo albums, etc., and can easily give users portraits.

This is indeed a terrifying ability.

But now, the second master only wanted to say that the flames of war should not be burned on Tengda.

Can't be provoked, can't you hide?

"If it's such an exaggeration, Tenda would have become a universe company long ago. As for being reduced to today?"

"Tengda: My mother..."

I always feel humiliated, what's going on?

"In my opinion, some people are sensationalists, or they are jealous of Mengya and deliberately slander."

"You can't say that, Weixin has a risk of information leakage, is it true?"

There are still people holding on to it.

There is a lot of noise on the Internet about this, which pushes this bud to the cusp of the storm again.

.........

"Chairman, I'm afraid that someone is behind the scenes to fuel the flames."

The reversal of public opinion on the Internet made it necessary for Germination to respond internally. Zhang Shuo immediately called Lu Qi, the vice president in charge of the Internet business, to the office.

"This is normal."

Zhang Shuo was very calm.

Allowing Germination to use public opinion to fight back naturally requires mental preparations to be backlashed by public opinion. No one can only enjoy the dividends of public opinion without bearing the price.

Just like those celebrities, Internet celebrities, and anchors, they rely on traffic dividends to make a living.

But once the car overturns.

It will be backlashed by the traffic, cast aside by public opinion, and unable to stand up again.

Because of this, under normal circumstances, Zhang Shuo would not try to sway public opinion, or even use public opinion to seek certain benefits, which is cool in the short term.

But in the long run, the disadvantages outweigh the advantages.

"Since the outside world has raised doubts about the information security of Weixin and Feixun, we should respond to the doubts openly." Zhang Shuo is still very confident.

Germinal dared to blew himself up, which proved that he could stand the test.

As for who is behind the scenes and fueling the flames, it doesn't matter at all.

Just a jumping clown.

"If it's just our unilateral self-certification, I'm afraid it will be difficult to dispel users' doubts." Lu Qi expressed his concern.

"What about your opinion?" Zhang Shuo asked.

"I suggest introducing an authoritative third party. It has been a year since Qingyun Data's A-round financing, and it is possible to consider starting the B-round financing, and take advantage of the situation to introduce authoritative investment institutions such as SDIC to strengthen the supervision of Qingyun Data."

"alright."

In fact, at the end of last year, Qingyun Data just carried out a capital increase of 40 billion. This year, there was no need for financing, but in view of the changes in the situation, Zhang Shuo decided to adopt Lu Qi's suggestion.

It also intends to further cede control of Qingyun Data.

Those who accuse Weixin and Feixun of data security are essentially questioning Qingyun Data, which is responsible for data storage, because they are in the same budding system and shield each other.

How to raise funds, of course, is still in charge of operation by Lu Kai.

.........

Blink of an eye to the weekend.

Coincidentally, Zhang Shuo bumped into the second uncle again at the old man's place.

"I heard that Germination is going to enter the commercial aerospace field?" The second uncle Tang Yi really has all eyes and hands, Nebula Technology is still going through the registration process, and has already received the news.

It also proved from the side that Tang Yi paid special attention to Germination's every move.

"There is such a plan."

Zhang Shuo did not deny it, and talked about his views on the development prospects of the commercial aerospace field with great interest.

"You can really toss."

Tang Yi shook his head amusedly, and really couldn't figure out where Zhang Shuo's energy came from.

He still remembers that when Zhang Shuo first founded Germination Capital, the three businesses of new retail, social networking, and games went hand in hand, and the key was to succeed.

Then came cloud computing, mobile phones, semiconductors, and new energy vehicles.

Now it is even more outrageous, and they want to engage in commercial spaceflight.

"I'm still so young, so I can't just guard my billions of dollars and wait for retirement, right? Why don't you make more troubles while you can?" Zhang Shuo is very Versailles.

"That makes sense."

Tang Yi thought about it too, who called Zhang Shuo less than thirty.

It's true that people can't get jealous.

"Are we able to arrange the funds? It is still very expensive to engage in commercial spaceflight." Tang Yi had received news before that Germination had found another 100 billion in corporate bonds.

It must be that the capital chain is tense again.

"Declaration in advance, don't even think about getting a loan from the bank." Tang Yi was vaccinated in advance.

"should be no problem."

Zhang Shuo chuckled, "The pace will be smaller in the early stage, and it won't cost much."

The commercial aerospace companies that emerged 15 years after the original time and space, the largest financing scale is only three to five billion yuan, which is incomparable with the financing of the Internet industry.

"That's good."

Only then did Tang Yi feel relieved, and worried that Germinal's capital chain would break, which would cause serious trouble.

.........

At night, Zhang Shuo accidentally received a message from his second uncle Weixin.

"This is the contact information of Mr. Shen, the person in charge of Huaxia Aerospace. I have already said hello. I will not participate in the specific cooperation and how to discuss it. You can do it yourself. I can only help here."

"Thank you, uncle!"

Zhang Shuo was very happy, and the second uncle really "spoiled" him.

As I said before, if Nebula Technology wants to take off, the first step is not only to recruit talents, but also to obtain a series of basic technology patent authorizations related to aerospace, otherwise there is no way to start.

As for the accumulation of aerospace patented technology, it is none other than Huaxia Aerospace, the giant.

With Zhang Shuo's current status, he can also contact Huaxia Aerospace directly, but after all, it is not as good as the second uncle who greeted him, and can clear away some invisible obstacles.

The second uncle complained about it, but he still supported his "nonsense".

.........

Monday, May 7.

Over the past weekend, the Internet is still uproarious.

Because Qingyun Data's B round of financing has not yet been implemented, Germination is still facing pressure from public opinion.

But this has not affected the business activities of Germination.

Nebula Technology has been formally registered and established as a first-level subsidiary of the Germination Group, and its registered address is a seven-story building in the Germination Industrial Park.

If nothing else happens, this building will serve as the headquarters of Nebula Technology in the future.

Because it is still a blank slate, Nebula Technology is temporarily placed under the management of Fertility Research Institute of Sprout Group, and the recruitment of relevant personnel and the Group Talent Center have also been started simultaneously.

Human Resources Director Wu Sheyuan even flew to the beautiful country to scout people, and he hasn't come back yet.

It is said that a technical leader has been locked.

In addition to Nebula Technology, under the instruction of Zhang Shuo, Sunlight Holdings and Dream Fund have also formally reached an agreement on the equity transaction of wichat and signed an equity transaction contract.

Dream Fund will acquire a 10% stake in wichat under the name of Sunlight Holdings at a price of one billion US dollars.

The funds are expected to arrive within a week.

conference room.

Lu Kai is reporting on the financing situation of Qingyun Data, "According to the chairman's instructions, Qingyun Data's B round of financing will adopt a combination of equity transfer + financing."

Simply put——

Qingyun Data will carry out B-round financing with a valuation of 400 billion yuan, with a financing amount of 60 billion yuan and a 15% equity transfer.

Financing objects include Binhai Urban Investment, Lingnan Provincial Investment, Haijin Urban Investment, Modu Urban Investment, Jiangxia Urban Investment, South Sichuan Provincial Investment, Huaxia State Investment, and investment institutions with state-owned backgrounds related to data security supervision.

A total of fifteen investment institutions are all authoritative.

In July last year, when Qingyun Data raised its A-round financing, its valuation was only 250 billion yuan. Germination transferred 10% of its shares, and its shareholding ratio dropped from 100% to 90%.

After the b round of financing, Sprout's shareholding will be diluted again, down to 76.5%.

In just one year, the overall valuation of Qingyun Data has increased by 1.6 times. The achievements and market share of Qingyun Data in the past year are actually not exaggerated at all.

Even slightly conservative.

After the B round of financing, Germination Group will also transfer 450% of the equity of Qingyun Data to these fifteen investment institutions at a new valuation of 20 billion.

Further reducing the shareholding ratio to 56.5% is tantamount to actively giving up absolute control.

The reason for this is also very simple.

One is to continue to implement the opening strategy of the Germination Group, and gradually give up absolute control over non-core business companies such as Qingcheng Group and Qingyun Data.

At the same time, it is also a response to the outside world's suspicion that the Germination Group is too large and involved in too many industries.

mean.

While constantly getting involved in new businesses, Sprout will also make “concessions” in some businesses.

The second is to give up absolute control over Qingyun Data in exchange for the public's trust in Qingyun Data's data security.

Although the price seems high.

In the eyes of normal investors, the practice of transferring equity immediately after financing like Germination Group is simply stupid, no different from giving money.

If it can be dragged to the C round of financing, the value of the 20% of the equity transferred now will double immediately.

It is also because the investors are all urban investment companies that Mengya is so generous.

It is foreseeable that after the news of Qingyun Data's b-round financing comes out, investment institutions like Pirates Saint Group and Scarlet Capital will probably go crazy with jealousy.

From the beginning of the establishment of Germination, these capitals have always wanted to participate in the financing of Germination.

result……

Mengya doesn't care about these so-called professional investment institutions at all, and prefers to cooperate with investment institutions such as Chengtou, which is also full of positive energy.

As for saying.

Why didn't Qingyun Data sell 35% of the shares in one go during the B round of financing, but chose the combination of financing + equity transfer, the reason is also very simple.

A Qingyun data currently has sufficient funds, and there is no need to raise more than [-] billion in one go.

Second, Germination Group also wants to properly recover some of the previous investment in Qingyun Data through equity transfers, and at the same time, use the 90 billion funds obtained from equity transfers to supplement the group's cash flow.

It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
