At this meeting, the two sides mainly discussed the general direction and controversial areas first. As for some other matters, there will definitely be a dedicated person to communicate later. It is impossible for Governor Dai to listen like this.
Governor Dai came here today to express his support for Qianxun Technology. The specific matters will not be mentioned here.
So overall, this meeting was a complete success.
At around 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Governor Dai and his party finally left Qianxun Technology. The Ministry of Public Security and the Provincial Public Security Department left two technicians to further communicate on the details.
Of course, Li Jianren will not participate in such a thing, so he will naturally have some hands to arrange it.
A week passed quickly, and in the past few days, Wang Chenggang called again, and he would accompany William, the president of Goldman Sachs Asia, to visit him, and the time was set on Friday afternoon.
Li Jianren didn't care about his attitude. He didn't plan to sell his equity for the time being. He first listened to what the other party said and communicated in detail when he needed to make a decision in the future.
On Friday that day, Wang Chenggang arrived as promised. As an old friend, Li Jianren, of course, welcomed him warmly and gave him enough face.
After the introduction, the two sides also knew each other.
"Mr. William, I wonder if you have any knowledge of our Qianxun Technology?" The first question was Jiang Yichen. He wanted to know how much the other party knew about Qianxun Network.
"Of course, we asked professionals to do analysis and comparison, and compared it with some search engines that already exist in the existing European and American markets. The conclusion is that Chihiro is generally worth investing, so I'm here!
”
This William was obviously sloppy, what is worth investing in, so when you come, this is simply nonsense.
Li Jianren feels that the other party must have done an analysis. You should know that the technology that Qianxun.com now has surpassed all search engines in the existing market. After all, with him as a special person, forward-looking is absolutely the first.
There is no doubt about this.
Moreover, as time goes by, the click rate and registered users of Qianxun.com are increasing continuously. The user experience is also better than other search engines, which is the main reason why Goldman Sachs is optimistic about Qianxun Technology.
"Mr. William, we think we have done a good job in the technical level and are ahead of many of our colleagues in creativity. So, I don't think Qianxun.com is just worth investing in such an evaluation!" Jiang Yichen did not say anything about it.
He kindly responded.
In his opinion, Qianxun.com is like his child. After more than a year of creation, he finally realized his dream. However, William seemed to have a derogatory meaning, which made him a little unacceptable.
Li Jianren certainly understood what William meant, and as the technical director, Jiang Yichen cared about different things from others.
As a buyer, of course, you must first devalue the value of the goods, and then you have room to bargain!
Wu Kaiquan was worried that Jiang Yichen would be dead, so he quickly stepped forward to smooth things over, "Mr. William, I think our Qianxun Network is still relatively ahead in all aspects, and we have subsequent plans to be launched soon, so we
Let’s not talk about it for now. We actually want to know that since Goldman Sachs wants to invest in Qianxun.com, then what can it bring to us if you don’t know?”
This time William did not speak, but gave Wang Chenggang a wink and asked him to say it first. He may have felt that his tone of speaking seemed a little stiff.
Wang Cheng, who was reminded, took over the topic: "I have known Aren for a long time, so I know very well that Qianxun.com is not short of money. Goldman Sachs is very clear about this.
However, there are still problems with Qianxun.com, which cannot generate profits for the time being, which also limits the development of Qianxun.com.
And we, Goldman Sachs, are willing to provide certain help to cooperate with well-known companies such as Yahoo, and you will provide certain services to certain companies.
You should know that Goldman Sachs has cooperative relationships with these companies and also holds a certain proportion of the shares. If we can invest in Qianxun Technology, we can also bring you these customers. I think these should be your current current
What you need.”
Wu Kaiquan and Jiang Yichen were thinking, they actually recognized what Wang Cheng said just now. Qianxun Technology lacks customers now. If Goldman Sachs can recommend such an international Internet giant, its popularity with Qianxun.com is
A boost.
It can also solve some of the company's later funding problems. After all, it will not be profitable. If you want to go public in the future, this will be a key constraint on Qianxun Technology.
Of course, Li Jianren also agrees with this point. It is of course a good thing to be able to cooperate with giants. But it is probably not much to make money by relying on them. In Li Jianren's mind, he already has a model of making money.
Therefore, he was not too anxious. Because the number of users of Qianxun.com has not reached the same scale. After the real data volume of Qianxun.com has increased significantly, then the bidding ranking will be launched, and I believe it will bring benefits soon.
.
Regarding this, he has never told Wu Kaiquan and Jiang Yichen that the main reason is that the time is not yet ripe.
However, Goldman Sachs' proposal is not bad, so you can try it in the future. The purpose of this is mainly to increase the international popularity of Qianxun. After all, Qianxun Technology will definitely go global in the future, and it cannot be limited to domestic development.
.
"Mr. William, I have already planned the profit model in my mind, but because the scale of Qianxun.com has not yet met my requirements, so the specific plan has not been announced.
Maybe next year, you can see that Qianxun.com has profitability and is quite good profitability. We can wait and see this. We are very interested in cooperation with large European and American companies, but
, I don't think it's now either.
Because, I know very well that you Goldman Sachs will not show off your rabbit or show off your eagle. If I don’t agree to your investment requirements, you will definitely not help us. I think you will definitely do this."
William shrugged, saying that was for sure.
"Mr. Li, you said you will have your own profit model. Although I expressed my doubts, I still respect your ideas. For Goldman Sachs, it is beneficial to both sides. I think you should agree with this.
We can not only promote your cooperation with other companies, but also provide greater help in your future listing process.”
Lee Jianren smiled slightly, "Mr. William, before you came, Sequoia Capital came to us a week after it was launched on our Qianxun Network. The help they can provide may not be less than you!"
"Oh?" William was stunned for a moment, and then continued, "This is not a problem. You can work together. It's just that in the shares you occupy, everyone needs to communicate well. I don't know Mr. Li's plan
How many shares are sold?”
"I wonder how much Goldman Sachs value our Qianxun Technology?" Li Jianren did not answer William's question, but asked back.
William did not intend to hide it. This was an inevitable topic. Since he wanted to invest in Qianxun Technology, the quotation was inevitable. This is also a process of mutual testing.
"Our Goldman Sachs today's total valuation of Chihiro Technology is US$60 million. I think this price has doubled compared to Mr. Li's original investment. I wonder if Mr. Li is satisfied," William tentatively said.
Of course, this quotation is not the final quotation, it is just a preliminary quotation. After learning that Qianxun Technology does not lack funds, Goldman Sachs hopes to use resources to leverage Qianxun Technology.
Li Jianren refused to comment, "Maybe, but my plan is that you will see the development of Qianxun Technology next year, which may surprise you at that time."
Of course, Li Jianren knew that the other party was just a tentative advance offer. Judging from the current scale of Qianxun Technology, it started at least US$80 million.
If next year, other modules of Qianxun Technology will be launched and profitable at the same time, the valuation will be even higher at that time.
So, Li Jianren was not in a hurry at all, and he had no intention of selling his equity now.
