The leisurely life of rebirth

Chapter 122 Continue to Invest

Zhou You didn't follow the two houses below because Zhang Yiming called again.

The first family can just follow them for a while, while the rest have to train on their own, and Wang Fangfang can just take them with them.

I haven't been to the capital for a long time. I just happened to go there. I don't know where they are now.

After getting off the plane, Zhang Yiming drove his shabby car to pick him up. The future boss couldn't even run the company now.

The birth of every giant is full of ups and downs, and it is smooth sailing and can only be acquired in the end.

Zhou You was not polite to him. He sat in the passenger seat and saw that Zhang Yiming looked haggard: "Mr. Zhang, how have you been lately? Why do you feel so haggard?"

"It's okay. The overall progress is going very smoothly. I don't want to invite Mr. Zhou to visit our company and inspect it." Zhang Yiming definitely couldn't meet, so he just said that our company is going bankrupt and can't survive. That would be really embarrassing.

Zhang Yiming has been hit hard in recent times. He originally thought that things would turn around and things would be better in the future.

Who would have thought that after all the money was spent and the product was released, when I wanted to continue looking for investment, I visited more than [-] companies and found no investment. In the end, I had no choice but to call Zhou You.

From Zhang Yiming's current point of view, Zhou You is definitely a good investor. He doesn't care about anything after giving him money, and it's all up to him.

Later, as they were constantly exposed, many people lost their fun and gradually quit.

Zhou You listened to the introductions of the project leaders with great interest, saying that although he didn't understand them, he found them interesting.

Every entrepreneur has a sense of pride, otherwise he would not be able to do anything casually. Especially Zhang Yiming, who has failed his business so many times and is still unwilling to accept it.

Unlike other giants that can share data and provide some invisible benefits, this is an invisible industry threshold. It will be difficult to grow if you don't bring them in.

Hearing Zhou You's words, Zhang Yiming felt warm in his heart. He was not a pure businessman. He was able to help Zhou You twice to save Zhou You in the most difficult time. He will always remember this feeling in his heart.

Unlike other investors, some are willing to invest, but their requirements are too high. They either need to change according to their direction, or they require a shareholding ratio that is too large. What’s the point in that?Just sell the company to him and I'll work for him.

It turned out that no one was optimistic about them at all. In the eyes of other investment companies, what Zhang Yiming did was no different from several portals, and there was no editing and no content. How could it be successful?

"So how much financing does Mr. Zhang need this time? Don't worry, I'm still saying the same thing. I'm optimistic about you as a person and I don't want to manage the company." Zhou You was deeply impressed by Zhang Yiming's firm attitude. , without the courage to break the boat, it is impossible to become a giant.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhou, for trusting me and I will not be polite to you. We are old acquaintances after all. This financing may be a bit large, at least 1 million is needed, but the shares will definitely not be as many as last time. I will give you an increase of 000% at most." Zhang Yiming is also very helpless. The same person holds too many shares. Although he is said to be indifferent, it still has a great impact on him.

Zhang Yiming was talking all the way, and Zhou You only nodded occasionally in agreement. After all, he really didn't understand.

At least in the early stages, it's a big killer, just like an addiction. You know it's addictive, but you still can't quit.

<divclass="contentadv">To give an inappropriate analogy, it is just like the garbage matching mechanism of the King, which allows you to win a game and lose a few games. He also has a human and a machine to play with you, repeatedly pulling on your emotions and controlling you. winning rate.

Zhang Yiming sat on the seat, picked up the cup with both hands and took a sip of water to relax. After meeting dozens of investors this month, his mouth was dry.

"Mr. Zhang, your development is really rapid now. This set of theories is definitely advanced. I very much agree with it, but is there anything you need my help with?" Zhou You is not sloppy. He is here to make additional investment anyway.

"The most important one in our algorithm is cold start. What is called cold start is that as soon as a customer comes in, I can analyze his hobbies and then deliver targeted content to directly stick to the customer."

But no one expected that the Internet would develop so fast from PC to mobile phone, and giants like Nokia would fall.

Zhou You couldn't help but applaud. No wonder psychology books are so popular. Ordinary people are playing, and they are studying how to make you play and control your mentality.

Zhang Yiming was a little embarrassed when he heard this. He acted there for a long time, but it turned out that others had already guessed it.

"Our products are now online and we have hundreds of thousands of active customers. Our future development is unlimited. We are still expanding investment and servers, and we are indeed looking for more investment."

When I arrived at the company, this time it was much better than before. I rented an office building with good conditions. There are now four NO.50 in total, and there are a lot more people than before.

This also gives ByteDance sufficient time to develop. Otherwise, it would have been acquired by those giants and would not have the chance to grow into one of the later giants.

"Mr. Zhang is valuing the company at 35 million. Okay, I'll take a gamble. You go and draw up the agreement. Just follow what you said. I don't want too many shares. [-]% of the shares is already enough." I'm satisfied, but I still say the same thing: "Don't procrastinate when traveling around. There are many ways to get around the agreement, only when the relationship is over."

"I definitely can't accept it if they want to hold a controlling stake," Zhang Yiming said decisively, "I would rather the company goes bankrupt."

"But Mr. Zhou is our first investor, so we will definitely give it priority. We will consider your intention and see if you are willing to continue making additional investments."

"What conditions do other investors have that force us, Mr. Zhang, to do this?" Zhou You asked with a smile. At least for now, it seems that the general direction has not changed, and Zhou You does not dare to invest too much.

"But this requires the support of big data. At present, we are still developing gradually. With the continuous development in the later period, our advantages will become greater and greater, because big data is supporting us."

After all, the development of this kind of enterprise requires the support of a lot of resources behind it. Zhouyou actually does not have many resources, so he can only provide a little help in the initial stage.

When I arrived at the company, I went straight to the conference room and listened to the introductions by Zhang Yiming and several project leaders.

Just relying on one person to invest, the amount of funds is not enough, the development will be limited, and it is very likely to die halfway.

"I hope Mr. Zhang will not forget my contribution today in the future financing process and when we become bigger and stronger."

Zhang Yiming stood up, walked to Zhou You, hugged Zhou You tightly, and patted Zhou You hard twice.

"No matter how much you say, it's useless. Look at my performance in the future. I'm a technical person, I'm stupid, I don't know how to say nice things, but I'm sincere."
