Chapter 251: Dark Clouds Covered
"Thank you for your trust in Instagram. The information about this financing meeting has been explained in the notice..."
The meeting officially began, and Lu Rong, the president of Global Capital, gave an opening speech.
In this financing meeting, Universal Capital valued the company at US$250 million.
Generally speaking, in the A round, investors are responsible for the valuation, and the founding team has no right to bargain.
But Instagram is a special case. It has the support of a well-capitalized parent company from the beginning.
Therefore, whether Instagram's financing is solvable or not, the status of the two is completely reversed.
Investors who should have been in the dominant position have become the weak ones.
As for the angel wheel, the particularity of INS makes it non-existent.
"There are a total of 5 places in this financing. We will select the ones that are most beneficial to the development of the company based on multiple face-to-face comprehensive evaluations of each investor's qualifications, social status, connections, reputation and influence..."
Among all the conditions , wealth was placed last and became the least important evaluation indicator.
The investors and representatives present were not surprised by this.
They were mentally prepared before coming.
Global Capital, the parent company of INS, is not short of money, especially Global Investment, the parent company behind it.
Just like Facebook's previous financing meetings, Li Zhenyu's selection depends entirely on the three characters "Quanzhou Li".
Otherwise, he is completely unqualified based on his level of wealth.
Not to mention the invisible wealthy people hiding around the world, there are countless giants on the surface.
Li Zhenyu relied on the wealth gained from the subprime mortgage crisis and was vulnerable to these giants.
This is the power of the collective. We want to become a real cross-over giant with influence all over the world.
You will never achieve anything by working alone.
This financing meeting is his first step into the world.
...
...
Li Zhenyu, who was chatting and laughing with the big guys, didn't know he was in the hotel room at the moment.
A bloody storm is about to begin.
"Who are you, and what is your relationship with Li?"
Big Ivan crossed his arms across his chest, making her majestic chest even more spectacular.
Li Fuzhen, who was lying leisurely on the sofa with her legs crossed, had an ambiguous attitude.
That expression was like that of an elder who saw a child acting recklessly.
With a bit of doting tolerance, his attitude is calm and elegant, but he is also strategizing.
It seemed as if he could subdue her with just one move and make her obedient.
How could Da Yiwan, who was a rich and famous lady from a bad country, endure this?
If you are not a good tutor, take into account the reputation of yourself and your family.
The vase on the table should have broken into pieces on the other person's face, stained with bright red blood.
"It's better to wait until Zhenyu comes back and let him tell you personally."
Hearing the same answer again, Da Iwan's chest heaved with anger.
Seeing her gritting her teeth, the coldness in her eyes grew stronger.
Li Fuzhen sighed helplessly and explained: "I don't know what kind of relationship I have with him now."
"If I said that he slept with me in his arms all night last night, but nothing happened, would you believe it?"
Creep...
Big Ivan almost broke his back molars and slept together all night.
Nothing happened...how much did that guy who was like an animal really care about this woman.
Hearing such an answer, Big Ivan suddenly regretted it.
If this is true, it can only prove that the other party occupies an important position in Li's heart.
So much so that he would never act even remotely coercive.
I would rather suppress my instinct than hurt her, 'Damn it, FK. '
Big Ivan roared in his heart, looking at that elegant and noble face again, he had the urge to tear her into pieces.
"When will he come back?"
Da Yiwan did not give in and sat back on the sofa, planning to wait for Li Zhenyu to come back.
"I don't know."
Li Fuzhen responded casually and looked out the window again.
The sky is clear and blue, but thick dark clouds come from nowhere. It's really terrible.
"Lee, it's really exciting for me to see new colors coming in."
Among the five qualified investors, John Thompson, an independent director who came as a representative of Microsoft, was one of them. Only black.
Stephen, who was supposed to be present on the list, was absent for some reason and was replaced by the old black man in front of him.
Being able to join the top upper class society in the country, serving as an independent director of Microsoft and having great influence on the board of directors.
These are enough to show that John Thompson with black skin is not simple.
In fact, it will be him who will oust Microsoft's current CEO, Stephen Ballmer, in the future.
Although behind this decision is the will of Microsoft Emperor Bill.
But as an extension and executor of will, John Thompson is still admirable and fearful.
"Thank you, John...I am equally happy to see you. I hope to see more different colors in the upper echelons of this free country."
"I am personally looking forward to this. If you have time, I would like to invite you. Go visit Microsoft..."
John Thompson was very optimistic about this young man, and he saw the shadow of Paul in him.
Active and out-of-the-box thinking, full of curiosity about everything, and daring to try and innovate.
He has a genius mind but still has innocence.
Another thing that is very similar is that they both like to play like children.
Paul is a well-known playboy in Silicon Valley.
John Thompson felt that it was time to find an opportunity to introduce them to each other. The two would definitely get along well.
"It's an honor."
Promising him to visit it if he had the chance, Li Zhenyu apologized and walked to another investor.
"Lee, you took away our best manager."
Karen Seymour, an executive vice president from Goldman Sachs, is a very charming blond beauty.
Mild and irrelevant, more inclined to Asian aesthetics, with short blond hair that is harmless to humans and animals.
But if anyone underestimates her because of this, they will be swallowed to the bone by this golden Barbie.
Lu Rong's information focused on naming this former colleague's methods and cruelty.
"Karen, circulating talents are more valuable. I look forward to working with you one day."
Karen Seymour covered her mouth in surprise and said as if she was deeply honored: "This really flatters me."
"You deserve it. Yes, isn't it!"
Li Zhenyu smiled and raised his glass, making no secret of his greed and appreciation for her.
No matter how many talents there are, the whole world can feed them.
The rapid and brutal expansion has caused a growing talent gap.
Today, headhunters in New York and Seoul have regarded Huanyu as the new God.
His appetite is so big that even headhunters would scratch their heads.
If this continues, Huanyu should consider investing in top universities and setting up scholarships with the same name to compete for talents.
Otherwise, when will this kind of shortage of major generals end?
