Chapter 76 What are you going to call the company?
Qin Fen doesn't care about his origin.
At least...he is still the one known as the Emperor of Shanghai.
The resources and connections he possesses are relatively extensive, so the information he provides here is more accurate.
"Are you really ready to vote?"
Qin Fen curled his lips and said, "I advise you to calm down. This is a billion-dollar business, and it's not that simple."
Zhang Yan stood on one side, her heart contracting.
One billion...
It’s still a U.S. dollar business.
She looked at the young and tall Zhou Xing standing there, and her heart trembled.
Zhang Yan had known for a long time that there were 500 million US dollars in Zhou Xing's account, which was already an amount that countless people would find difficult to reach in their lifetime.
Now...he still wants to invest, and it's actually an investment of over one billion US dollars.
You must know that Zhou Xing is only eighteen years old.
Where did he get so much money?
"How to say?"
Zhou Xing heard the implication of Qin Fen's words, and it seemed that... there was new news.
"It is now basically certain that the news of the financing was released by Byte, and the company is preparing to release 10% of its shares."
Qin Fen said: "This is an unprecedented share. You must know that in the previous three rounds of financing, ByteDance only gave up less than 30% of its shares."
"Accordingly, financing of this magnitude will definitely cause an earthquake in the investment circle."
Qin Fen shook his head and said: "But... it has been several days since the news came out, but there has been no response. I also asked some friends in investment companies, and they generally expressed their opinions on this project.
Not very optimistic."
“In 2014, Byte raised US$100 million in financing, accounting for 20% of the shares. At that time, the company’s valuation was only US$500 million. After they received this financing, it took two full years, except for the crazy money burning.
In addition, it has not made any achievements. Not only has the revenue direction not been found, but even the valuation has not improved much.”
Qin Fen gestured: "One billion US dollars is guaranteed, but they are only prepared to release 10% of the shares. Based on this calculation, their company's valuation is more than 10 billion US dollars."
"Byte is too expensive, and their appetite is huge, which is beyond the reach of ordinary people. If you keep a billion dollars for yourself, you won't be able to use it up in your lifetime. If you throw it into this, it may not even make a splash.
"
Qin Fen advised: "I think you should think about it carefully. This water is a bit too muddy, and it would not be a good thing to get mixed in."
Hearing this, Zhou Xing rubbed his chin, with little expression on his face: "Do you know when they will start financing?"
“The purpose of Byte making such a big noise is to attract the attention of venture capital investors.”
Qin Fen pondered for a moment: "According to the current news, it may take more than two months, but according to my estimate, it will be conservatively three months later. For such a large amount, it depends on what the boss of Byte says.
Move those venture capital firms.”
Three months...
Zhou Xing nodded.
At least one billion US dollars is a big burden for him.
But no matter what...
Byte is a giant ship, the future network monster. If there is a chance, I will definitely get on it.
Not only do you want to go up, but you also have to swallow these shares in one gulp.
Fortunately, there is still plenty of time.
It has been more than a month since the system was activated.
Three months is enough time for the system to be upgraded.
He believes... that after the system is upgraded, an investment of one billion US dollars will be a piece of cake for him.
Otherwise, with his current US$500 million, he would have spent a little more.
It is completely impossible to monopolize Byte's shares.
He also needs to free up funds and register an investment company.
Bytes are the top priority though.
But Internet celebrity live broadcasts, film and television...cannot be left behind either.
This requires a lot of funds to support.
"Okay, I get it."
Zhou Xing replied.
At this time... Chen Maohua also walked in with the contract in hand. With a smile on his face, he stood respectfully in front of Zhou Xing: "Mr. Zhou, this is the contract. Please check it."
Zhou Xing took the contract, glanced at it briefly, and then threw it to Qin Fen.
Qin Fen glanced at it, closed the contract, and nodded at him.
Zhou Xing didn't pay too much attention.
After all, this kind of lease contract is relatively simple.
There won't be any contract traps arranged inside, at least Chen Maohua doesn't have the guts.
Zhou Xing took the signature pen handed over by Chen Maohua, and then signed his name on all three contracts.
After pressing the fingerprint.
Then he and Chen Maohua came to the company's financial office.
Swipe your card!
enter password.
More than eight million yuan was swiped out at once.
Chen Maohua handed the contract, as well as the password and company key to Zhou Xing: "Mr. Zhou, welcome to our Shanghai City Center Building. You can choose to move your company here."
Zhou Xing nodded, and Zhang Yan took the things over knowingly.
Several people, escorted by Chen Maohua, arrived at the door of the building.
"If there's nothing else, I'll leave first. It just so happens that my company has some matters that I need to go over and deal with."
Qin Fen said to Zhou Xing.
"Okay, thanks."
Zhou Xing thanked him and said, "I'll treat you to dinner another day."
"Why are we brothers so polite?"
Qin Fen smiled and said: "After you finish the company, I will kill you severely. Then we will talk about the Internet celebrity company."
"no problem."
Zhou Xing responded in one breath.
Qin Fen immediately stepped forward and arrived at the parking lot. Today he was driving a Rolls-Royce Dawn, which looked very low-key.
After Zhou Xing watched Qin Fen drive away in the car, he turned to Zhang Yan and said, "Let's go too."
"OK."
Arriving next to the McLaren, Zhou Xing got into the car.
Zhang Yan also held the contract, got into the passenger seat, and put on her seat belt.
Zhou Xing ignited the ignition and started the car.
The air conditioner gradually dissipated the heat.
But he had no intention of leaving in a hurry.
Instead, he said to Zhang Yan: "Now that the office space has been determined, I will have to trouble you to register the company."
"No problem, I will take care of these right away."
Zhang Yan said seriously: "I will register the company as a bank. It is expected that the process will only take about three days, and the company will be almost ready."
"But there is still a small problem..."
Zhang Yan paused and said.
"what is the problem?"
"What are you going to call our company, Mr. Zhou?"
