David Ford is happy.Marcus sighed.At Oasis Investments, discussions are underway with Alvertelli on the company's future investment direction.It's been two days since Oasis Investments was created, and it's time to officially start work.Since it is a venture capital type company, the main task is to find an audience for venture capital.The audience of venture capital firms is companies and entrepreneurs who need financing.For these companies and entrepreneurs, the number of times they raise money is generally not fixed.From the initial stage of angel investment, to the second round of ABCD and other rounds of financing, generally no more than six times.Under normal circumstances, the company is almost about to go public.Once the listing makes a profit, the venture capital company can gradually withdraw and recover the profits.However, the number of financings is not fixed, and some companies raise fewer times, but the amount is large.Some companies raise more funds more often, but the amount of each time is small.And some companies have a lot of financing, and the amount of financing is large.This is rare, but it is some.For example, a domestic taxi-hailing software company in China has raised a total of 16 times since its inception, and the cumulative financing amount has reached an exaggerated $20 billion.This company has become the unlisted company with the largest number of financing rounds in the world, which can be described as unprecedented and rare.As long as you have the ability, investors and shareholders are willing to believe that if you raise 100 times and raise $1 trillion, that is also your ability."
Our salesmen have already started their work.These salesmen are all old sharks from Dune Road!
Their sense of smell is unmatched!
”"Trust me, boss.It doesn't take more than two months for us to find a high-quality investment object!
”"I promise!"
Alvertelli said confidently.As one of the elites in the industry, between the top elite and the top investment managers, Alferteli has always been a battle for fame.For example, before Sequoia Capital returned to the helm of Apple, Apple's stock price was at its lowest and lowest level.A bold move to increase the holdings of many shares of Apple.Later, Jobs returned as king, Apple's mobile phone went public, and Apple's stock price rose sharply.Sequoia Capital arbitraged more than $2 billion.The managing partner who was in charge of the investment at the time became a celebrity and is now a senior executive of Sequoia Capital Group and a top elite in the industry."
Oh?
So how long does it take to make a profit?
”Abel said noncommittally.He is willing to believe in Alferteli's ability, but no matter how strong Alferteli's ability is, it is estimated that at most he will bring Oasis Investment to the appearance of a medium-sized investment company.Alferteli frowned, the profitability of venture capital firms is actually the most volatile.Since it is a venture capital company, it is naturally risky, and the risk is still very large, no less than stock speculation.But when he thought about it, Alvertelli understood.A rich man who invests in the creation of a company naturally wants to make money.There's nothing wrong with that.After thinking about it, Alvertelli made a promise: "Boss, a year at most!"
You can start making a profit!
”It takes a year to make a profit, and in the venture capital world, it's actually not slow.Abel smiled and didn't speak.Alvertelli saw that the boss did not speak, thinking that he was not satisfied, and wanted to explain.It was at this time.There was a knock on the door to the chairman's office.Honk!
Honk!
Honk!"
Come in."
Abel Dao.The door opened, and a man of Indian origin with a beard entered.This is Lana Pitzei, the company's venture capital manager, who was originally a risk manager at Sequoia Capital and was poached by Abel.Now at Oasis Investments, he is the second-in-command in addition to Alvertli.Lana and Alvertelli are actually old acquaintances, one of them was at Sequoia Capital and the other was at KPCB, and they had been optimistic about a company together and competed for a stake in that company.Lana walked in, the expression on his face a little excited: "Boss, Al." ”"There's good news.I think I should let you know and be happy. ”Abel smiled and asked, "What's the good news?"
”Alvertelli smiled at him as well.Lana smiled excitedly and said, "Our liaison has received news from Blue Star Future that Mr.
Piaggio's experiment has been successful!"
The latest e-waste disposal technology, the prototype of the Bluestar 1, has been tested!
”"This is indeed good news!"
Alvertelli said, "But it shouldn't be worth your own introduction."
I guess there's some good news, right?
”"Haha!
Yes!
Boss Aland, if this is all it takes, the company only needs to follow up and send financial personnel to supervise the use of the other party's funds. ”"But!"
Rana said excitedly: "From the personnel we sent over, the news that Dr.
Piaggio's technique is the cyanide-free gold removal method!"
And the experiment has been successful!
There is almost no smoke in the process, there is no danger during use, and the water can even be used to raise fish!
”"And the cost is low, only higher than sodium cyanide, which can directly replace sodium cyanide.But the level of pollution is hundreds of times lower!
”"And they have added experimental tests, this technology, in addition to e-waste refining precious metals, can also be used in mining powder refining.""
If all these technical details can be realized, then ......," said Rana Pitzei, an Indian-American whose eyes lit up."
Then this is a super gold mine!"
After listening to Lana's story, Alfertley, who had been sitting calmly on the sofa, couldn't help but swoop to his feet.The eyes of the two looked at Abel excitedly together, and they became emotional.If Piaggio and Bluestar's future technology is really so powerful.It can really deal with electronic waste without pollution or low pollution, as well as the refining of precious metal mine powder.Then this could well be a super gold mine worth tens of billions of dollars.Looking at these two investment managers, the elite of Dune Road looked excited.Abel is a liberal arts student, although he can't understand the technical details that Lana said just now, but he understands that if this technology is true, it is very valuable and awesome.That's enough.Although I still think it's very black technology, it's a bit unbelievable.However, know that this investment is a quest reward for Smoke of Fate.The power of the smoke of fate is exaggerated enough to actively foresee the future fragment, what else is impossible?
Abel chose to believe.
“excuseme?”
Abel looked at the two subordinates and smiled slightly: "My Jefferson and Hamilton (note (1))).In that case, what are you waiting for?
”"Go verify!""
Go apply for a patent!"
……………………………… Note (1): Jefferson and Hamilton, the second of the founding fathers of the United States, and the right and left hands of the first President of the United States, Washington.
