The fourth day of the Lunar New Year is not destined to be a peaceful day.Although even at 11 o'clock, Su Ze was still just holding the quilt, eager to linger with it until he was old, but under the urging of his mother one after another, he still reluctantly got up from the quilt.He hastily ate lunch, glanced at his phone, and opened his laptop with no unread messages or unread WeChat.After logging in to QQ, Su Ze habitually logged in to the 126 mailbox as usual.
Normally, when he registers an account on major websites, he will keep a QQ mailbox, but when he cooperates with business, he will communicate through 126 mailbox.Public and private, Su Ze is very clear.When he opened the unread email, his pupils shrank suddenly, and a look of surprise flashed across his face, and then he returned to his flatness."
Calm down, calm down, that's completely to be expected."
Su Ze muttered to himself.He usually opens the 126 mailbox once every three days, but this time because he went home for the Chinese New Year, he didn't log in to the mailbox for nearly five days.There were three unread emails in the inbox, one was spam, and the other two turned out to be inquiries from intermediaries from venture capital firms.For capital with a keen sense of smell, there is no distinction between excessive and unseasonal, and they will look for all potential stocks in the market that have room for appreciation.One is the well-known Hillhouse Capital, the founder of this company, Zhang Lei, who became famous for his successful bet on JD.com.Su Ze frowned slightly, but he skipped the email directly.As one of the largest investment funds in Asia by assets under management, they are not short of money.Investors waving dollar bills, are reluctant to miss out on a company that has the potential to become a unicorn in the emerging market of Asia.This investment company has a high vision and many companies under its command, and Su Ze does not think that the fledgling Tujia will become the first ladder in their minds.Not to mention now, even if it really monopolizes the homestay booking market in the future, Tujia can't be compared with JD.com, or even Ctrip.Su Ze is looking for a venture capital company, not only looking at the financial strength of the other party, but also whether he can bring some hidden resources to himself in addition to funds.Tujia is his stepping stone, and as for how to go in the future, it is time to act at the opportunity.Su Ze continued to click on the second email, his eyes lit up in vain, and it turned out to be the middleman of the Great Demon King Penguin.Sure enough, this company's sense of smell is also extraordinary, and it has discovered the huge market potential of Minsheng.com.Since the 3Q war, Penguin has begun to change its operational strategy, from taking other people's path in the past to making others have no way out, to today's win-win cooperation.Nowadays, as long as your insight is not too bad and your IQ is not too low, you can see that the trend of the Penguin Empire is almost unstoppable.In 2012, although Huaguo Internet was still a three-legged situation of BAT, Ali and Penguin were particularly fast-growing, while the other Baidu, which had some decline, because their other businesses other than search engines were really mediocre.On the Penguin side, Tencent.com has been among the three major portals, kicking Sohu.com down.QQ is still a monopoly chat tool, once praised by many elites as a high-flying MSN, but has gone out of business.DNF and CF have brought a steady stream of wealth to penguins, and the newly launched "League of Legends" has the momentum to replace Warcraft and become the world's number one game.Also this year, Tencent will also launch an operational strategy that WeChat users can import with QQ friends, so that WeChat can easily monopolize the mobile communication market.However......
"The penguin is too big to be taken seriously, but the channels it has are very impressive. ”Su Ze hesitated for a moment, but decided to write a brief reply to this email."
Whether it's Tencent, Alibaba, or JD.com, the most suitable time for them to raise funds is actually in the C round, and even become the receiver of my sale of Tujia in the future.It's still a bit early. ”However, since the middleman of the other person has taken the initiative to express his investment intention, it is okay to talk about it.Su Ze is not interested in overseas capital for the time being, because Tujia will not be listed in a few years, nor will it enter the overseas market, mainly based on China.What's more, Airbnb is too strong, even Ctrip has to avoid the other party's edge.In fact, in his current planning, there is a very favorite partner to work with, and that is Meituan.The A round of Ctrip, and the B round of Meituan, can give full play to the value of Tujia.com, because this kind of cooperation is the real complementarity.Although Meituan still lost a lot of money until 2019, it was the investor's money that was burned anyway, and that Wang would not feel distressed if he spent it.The company has been listed in Xiangjiang, personal ambitions have been realized, and pockets have also swelled, even if they can't make a profit, what can they do, investors have to grit their teeth and continue to invest in order to push up the stock price.Su Ze opened it and checked Meituan's recent financing information, and found that this company had a financing of up to 80 million US dollars in late 2011, and the leader of the investment was the famous Alibaba."80 million US dollars, this company's cash flow should be quite sufficient today, and it has just announced its entry into the hotel reservation market, so it will be interested in the homestay."
Like the penguins, he quietly also put a red circle on Meituan."
For now, let's just do these two companies."
After thinking about it, Su Ze temporarily ignored Hillhouse Capital and chose Penguin and Meituan.He decided to reply to Penguin first, and then find a time to meet with the founder of Meituan and choose the best.In many cases, it is not the VC firm that has more money and reputation, and the better the effect, and it is important to choose the right one.remembers that Wang Xin of Meituan was born in 1979, which is relatively young among the industry bigwigs, and he is also ten years older than Su Ze.After doing this, Su Ze stretched his waist."
I'll go back to Shanghai in the afternoon, and I'll have to go to Xiaoxue's house tomorrow."…… Lin Shijing guessed that it was not wrong, Su Yi did not go to the company immediately in the morning, but like Ouyang Xue, he ran in the community downstairs for a while, and then after breakfast, he went to the company to hang around for a while.In fact, these days, there is nothing going on in the company at all.Ouyang Xue found Su Yi and proposed to go shopping together in the afternoon and have dinner.Su Yi hesitated for a while and replied, "It's okay to go shopping, but there is something going on at night, so we can't go together, why don't we go to lunch?"
”Ouyang Xue glanced at Lin Shijing beside her and said, "I made an appointment with friends for lunch, so let's go shopping together in the afternoon."
I'll go home for dinner and settle it. ”"When will Ozawa come back, do you know?""
After dinner, I went back to Shanghai, and it was estimated that it was more than 8 o'clock here.It's so cold, and you're coming to my house tomorrow anyway, so we won't see each other today. ”"Okay, then we'll see you in the afternoon."
After Ouyang Xue hung up the phone, she said, "It's boring!"
Sister Su Yi seemed to be quite concerned about the time when Su Ze came back, and when she learned that it was 8 o'clock when she came back, she seemed to be relieved. ”Lin Shijing smiled and made an OK gesture, and said a little proudly: "My guess is really right." ”Ouyang Xue first took Lin Shijing back to her house, hastily had lunch, and then sent a text message to Su Ze for a while and went out."
Xiaoxue, your mother is so enthusiastic, she has been pulling to introduce her boyfriend."
Lin Shijing looked helpless."
Hey, this is a common problem of all middle-aged aunts, because she introduced me to a boyfriend and refused to give me, so I can only look for you."
Ouyang Xue smiled bitterly.…… ()
