Chapter 283 Extraordinary Investment Vision
The reason why Ding Lei didn't teach Ding Lei every aspect is to let the other party have his own thinking.
At least this point, judging from the experience of the previous life, the other party does not lack.
And as a founder, such a mind is indispensable. Otherwise, how do you stand out from the crowd of small companies?
Early the next morning, Wu Tao came to Tianqi Investment Company.
Today is the day of Ding Lei's road show, Tianqi's temporary review team consists of only him, Qin Xiaoxiao and Xue Jiaqian.
Compared with the last time I came here, the professional atmosphere in the company has become stronger and stronger, and it looks more and more like that.
As soon as Wu Tao sat down in his office, Qin Xiaoxiao and Xue Jiaqian came together.
Both of them were wearing professional overalls, which looked pleasing to the eye, and they looked like pretty workplace beauties.
It's just that Xue Jiaqian has a bright and charming temperament, and Qin Xiaoxiao pales in comparison.
"Xiaoxiao, you look so bad, what's the matter?"
Qin Xiaoxiao is a straight-talking person, and her relationship with Xue Jiaqian is relatively harmonious, so she just said it straight away.
"Boss, the company has successfully introduced more than 8 million yuan of investment since its opening. However, it is still at a loss for foreign venture capital projects. If this continues, we will have to pay dividends to investors during the Chinese New Year."
Wu Tao raised his brows, "The introduction of an investment of more than 8 million yuan, the performance is not bad!"
Qin Xiaoxiao didn't hide it either, "Most of this is due to Jiaqian, she has made good use of her connections in the industry."
Xue Jiaqian hurriedly said modestly: "These investments are the result of the joint efforts of everyone in our company. As for external investment, boss, I suggest that we consider appropriate matching of funds and stocks."
"That's right, Mr. Xue." Wu Tao first affirmed the other party's achievements, and then got down to business, "We are venture capital VCs, and the main way to support emerging industries is to rely on option income. Therefore, funds and stocks should not focus on investment."
In terms of investment in funds and stocks, Wu Tao saw the differences between the two. So when he said this, it was equivalent to standing on Qin Xiaoxiao's side.
After finishing speaking, he put his hands together and crossed his fingers and said, "As for the investigation of foreign venture capital projects, I suggest starting from two aspects."
When Qin Xiaoxiao heard this, she immediately became excited. After working under Wu Tao for so long, she knew that as long as Wu Tao asked for guidance, there must be a good way.
On the contrary, Xue Jiaqian is more confident in her professionalism and accumulation, and she doesn't care about Wu Tao, a layman's advice.
After all, in the professional field of investment, is it possible that he is not as good as a young man who has not even stepped out of the country?
"On the one hand, venture capital projects in the Internet field are like Ding Lei's NetEase this time. In this respect, we have to compare our development potential with that of the United States. It can be said that the United States today is our tomorrow. As long as the investment is correct Two, the return on option income in the later period is definitely huge.”
Xue Jiaqian's eyes lit up when she heard this.
That's right, the most cases done abroad are investments in the Internet field. Every year, various small companies in Silicon Valley spring up like mushrooms, emerging one after another.
Based on this alone, I can't underestimate the eyes of my boss.
"Boss, you are right, this is a very potential investment direction." Xue Jiaqian nodded hurriedly.
Wu Tao also took the opportunity to implement it: "The source of the project in this area will be handed over to you."
"Yes, boss!" This is a good job, Xue Jiaqian agreed very simply, and initially approved of Wu Tao's advice in her heart.
"As for Xiaoxiao, on your side, you can focus on discovering those companies that have the potential to grow into giants in specific areas such as retail, computer terminal sales, and state-owned enterprise restructuring."
"...For example, the fruit department under the Jiangdong Provincial Fruit and Grocery Corporation, they have such intentions. I asked Brother Fei to pay attention to it before, you can ask him."
It is such an understatement to say a lot of endless advice from Wu Tao's mouth.
But after careful consideration, these industries and fields do have great potential. At least compared with similar foreign companies, there is still a lot of room for development in China.
Now, Xue Jiaqian had to give in.
At least for a while, the boss can come up with such a few feasible directions, which is already very powerful.
Reasonable and convincing.
At 9:50, Netease's roadshow arrangement began.
Today's Ding Lei is neatly dressed. The eyes behind the lens are piercing.
It seems that during this night's work, he thought of a lot of IDEA.
Wu Tao mentioned him for so long yesterday, but when it came to today's road show, it only took ten minutes to pass.
After all, there are only Wu Tao and three people, plus it is the first round of investment.
No fancy PPT, no hype storytelling.
Ding Lei just mentioned the slogan, and then described the idea of developing mailbox business, transforming BBS into a virtual community, and transforming into a portal website at an appropriate time, and Wu Tao approved it for him.
As for Xue Jiaqian, she must have voted and passed; Qin Xiaoxiao voted for X and failed.
Even so, according to the final result of 2:1, Ding Lei still got the first investment of 1 million.
Now that it passed, Ding Lei has changed from a founder who no one cares about to a partner with unlimited potential.
It didn't count for the lower back at the moment, and the pain in the legs didn't stop. He regained his energy and began to bargain with Tianqi Investment.
Wu Tao didn't say anything about this matter at first, and Qin Xiaoxiao didn't seem to be in the nature of negotiating. It may be that in her opinion, even if it is 100% of the original option, it is in vain.
Because she still feels that the other party is unreliable, it can be seen how important this first impression is.
So the final right to negotiate completely fell on Xue Jiaqian.
"Mr. Ding, according to the asset review and expected assessment of NetEase's current status by the Apocalypse Investment Evaluation Team, your company's total assets are 200,000."
"...Apocalypse invests 1 million yuan, so it should take up 83% of the options."
Ding Lei stood up from the ground, "You are too dark-hearted, aren't you? The NetEase company I worked so hard to build is only worth 200,000 in your eyes?"
Wu Tao secretly laughed, this evaluation value is indeed a bit low. But bargaining, of course, comes and goes.
Xue Jiaqian opened her mouth wide, naturally to cover up her true bottom line.
"No, you can occupy up to 40% of the original options!"
"49%!"
"40%!"
"48%!"
"40%!"
Ding Lei bit his bottom line and did not let go, Xue Jiaqian's posture was obviously not reconciled.
Wu Tao smiled, "Ding Shisan, I've helped you so much, at least you want to repay your kindness, don't you?"
"One size fits one size!" Ding Lei rolled up his sleeves and was willing to go all out, "Besides, what did you do for me?"
"At least I bought the clothes on you, right?" Wu Tao said in no hurry: "Besides, in the future development of NetEase, it will inevitably stumble. I can give you free advice."
Ding Lei was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help showing emotion.
Of course, what really moved him was not the clothes, but Wu Tao's guidance.
Xue Jiaqian took the opportunity to mention: "45%!"
"make a deal!"
