I was reborn and stayed in school to lie down. I really don’t want to roll anymore!

February 1th, the seventh day of the Chinese New Year.

Both companies have a rule to go back to work on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, but Jiang Hao has already returned a day early.

At this time, he was in the tea room of Yipiaopiao Company, trying to make tea for himself according to the method originally taught by Ren Yixin.

Jiang Hao tried twice the obviously awkward method of brewing tea by turning the pot over and over again, but finally gave up.

Use the most simple and unpretentious way to drink it, brew it with boiling water.

My mind was reminiscing about the madness of those few days in my hometown starting from the first day of the new year.

After returning to the village, we had banquets every day.

Not only did his father prepare a meal, but other relatives also prepared a meal or invited them to their homes for dinner.

During the Chinese New Year and other festivals, this dish in the countryside is really hard and there is really a lot of it.

Of course, it’s not just about food. The questions asked by relatives are also very practical, some ask about partners, some ask about work and income.

Anyway, whenever we sit down at the table together, the conversation always turns to these issues.

Even in his previous life, he was considered a promising person in the village. After all, he was lucky and the salary as a software developer was high.

Among my relatives in the village, my salary is unique except for the young people who are in business.

Of course, the high salary is essentially of little use. The money cannot be retained, and he cannot retain the people in Shenzhou City either.

But relatives back home don’t care about these things, especially most of the time they just want to keep a low profile.

I don’t want to put pressure on other young people in the village or cause unintentional comparisons.

He reported a monthly income of around 10,000 yuan, but this is actually one of the few high salaries in the village.

In addition, the news spread in the village was unreliable, so his salary increased from 10,000 to 30,000.

In the last few years of his previous life, several relatives even asked him if he had an annual salary of one million. Jiang Hao felt a little embarrassed for a moment and could only wave his hands and deny it repeatedly.

This year he was recruited as a university teacher and was about to start a doctorate program. When the news spread, his relatives began to look at him as a high-level intellectual.

As a result, I no longer have the job of serving food when my family entertains guests every year. I can just sit quietly and drink with my relatives.

The relatives didn't actually praise Jiang Hao that much; they mainly praised Jiang's father.

He was already a leader among his peers with a high school education, and now his son is even more successful.

It is estimated that this is the most splendid New Year that Jiang's father has celebrated in all these years, except for the two years in his early years when he was making money by doing business.

"Kick, tap, tap, tap..."

There were some noises coming from outside the company. Jiang Hao came back to his senses at this time and waited quietly for someone to come.

We haven't officially started work today, so it's impossible that the people here are employees.

It would be good enough if the employees could arrive at work on time on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year. For example, Old Tang took leave until the fifteenth day, planning to come back after the Lantern Festival.

The two people who came today were naturally Ren Yixin and Lu Weiming.

However, after entering the office, Jiang Hao discovered that there was someone behind him.

He doesn't look very old, probably around 27 or 28 years old.

He wore a sweatshirt under his down jacket, a pair of very loose brown overalls, a pair of Converse canvas shoes, and a black knitted hat on his head.

He was dressed very cleanly, giving off a CITYBOY vibe that became popular a few years later.

"Brother Jiang, let me introduce you. This is my friend Yang Tianhao. He is mainly developing in Songjiang City and Lizhou City. This time he came here to discuss cooperation."

"Old Yang, this is the founder of our Yipiaopiao company and a technical expert, Jiang Hao."

As soon as they entered the room, Lu Weiming took the lead in introducing both parties.

"Jiang Hao is still a teacher at Songjiang Normal University. You can call him Mr. Jiang or Teacher Jiang."

Since he is Lu Weiming's brother and was brought here by Ren Yixin, he must be a second-generation and his family must have a powerful background.

Jiang Hao didn't think much about it, he immediately stood up and stretched out his hand to shake hands with him.

"Hello, Mr. Yang!"

The man opposite, Yang Tianhao, also shook hands with him enthusiastically, with a smile on his face.

Just by shaking hands, Jiang Hao saw the watch on his wrist and sighed inwardly again.

If he had not studied watches after his last dealings with Professor Zheng, he would not have been able to tell that the watch was from Vacheron Constantin.

In his impression, the price of this watch series is not high. At least the official price does not exceed 100,000, but the style is quite suitable for young people.

"Boss Jiang! I've heard of your great name for a long time!"

"I heard Brother Lu said that you are also working on a live broadcast project. I also like watching live broadcasts."

"If the company needs financing or funds in the future, you can also come to me. I am very optimistic about you, Mr. Jiang, and I am also interested in investing in this kind of project."

Yang Tianhao was quite outspoken and he started by mentioning his Totoro live streaming website project.

From the way he spoke, he sounded like an investor who was eager to give him money.

But Jiang Hao would never consider asking for money from such an unfamiliar person.

For Longmao Live, the two million angel round from Brother Lu is enough for the time being.

Later, when it comes to round A financing, the first choice is also funds from large capital groups.

In angel round investment, he can only care about money and nothing else.

But in the following rounds, each round is actually a screening, which is not only a screening of the company, but also a screening of the capital investors.

Of course, a good project requires shareholders to provide both money and resources.

One thing that can be very helpful about investment from large capital groups is that they have a lot of experience in deciding when your company should start the next few rounds of financing.

Including the subsequent rounds of financing, inviting suitable or capable capital parties, etc. will all be a huge help.

If you can attract strong capital in Round A and your company's business products are sufficient to support it, moving on to the next round is almost certain.

Even if the company eventually fails on the way to listing, at least it has gained the capital and connections it has come into contact with throughout this process.

Entrepreneurs now have a general understanding and can communicate with such investors better and more clearly.

When you continue to start a business in the next round, there will be more and more people who are optimistic about you, including those who are willing to invest in you.

During this process, angel investor Lu Weiming can gradually establish connections with investors or managers of these large institutions.

Share or learn in advance about some projects they are optimistic about, so that you can have the opportunity to get in and share a piece of the pie.

In fact, as long as you can keep going during the entire entrepreneurial process and have enough exposure, and as long as you don’t burn your own money, you will not lose money even if the company goes bankrupt.

Even if the company goes bankrupt, you as an entrepreneur can still make a lot of money by paying yourself a salary.

And those entrepreneurs who have truly succeeded once, or those who have made it through the later rounds but failed to go public in the end.

The next time he starts over, others will chase him and give him money to get started. This is actually the real resource that a person accumulates.

Of course, Jiang Hao would not slap Yang Tianhao in the face today. After thanking him politely, they sat down together.

This meeting was actually initiated by Lu Weiming.

Before coming here, Jiang Hao had some vague guesses that it might be about Yipiaopiao Company's investment.

But now Yang Tianhao was brought along, and Jiang Hao became uncertain again.

Could it be that Lu Weiming needs to form a partnership with Yang Tianhao to take over the market in Fuyang City? Or is there a new theory?

Or is it that this Yang Tianhao really came here just for his live streaming website?
