Chapter 020: Enthusiastic VC Angels
It turns out he is a courier.
Upon hearing this, some of the journalists who had been expecting were disappointed, and some people suspected that because Li Chuan was wearing casual clothes, he didn't look like a courier who came to receive the goods, but it was hard to say.
Li Chuan passed through the crowd "without any danger" and came to the entrance of Huasheng Technology. When he arrived at the front desk, the girl at the front desk smiled and said, "Good morning, Chairman Li."
What?
Many people were stunned when they heard this sentence.
"What did the staff in front of Huasheng Platform just say?" A reporter turned around and asked his partner.
"Chairman, Chairman Li!"
"He is actually the head of Huasheng Technology? So young? My God!"
"I've been out of my mind, but I've actually slipped away by him as a fake guy."
"So angry!"
Countless reporters were crying and were waiting in Huasheng for most of the day. Unexpectedly, the most worthwhile interviewer did not even leave a photo. The door of Huasheng Technology was naturally open, but these special journalists and media people came uninvited. Huasheng would not rush into someone's office without accepting the interview, so he had to wait patiently outside the door.
But leaving the company gate is another matter!
However, the founder is so young that he has to have a close-up of the big book.
Li Chuan came to the office hall. Everyone greeted him along the way. Looking around for a week, all the employees were full of energy. Everyone knew that Huasheng had a bright future, with a bright future, natural energy and enthusiasm.
When he came to the door of the president's office, Qiao Hongwen's assistant said, "Chairman, are you looking for Mr. Qiao?" Seeing Li Chuan nodding, the assistant looked at the conference room and said, "Mr. Qiao is receiving guests in the conference room."
Huasheng Technology's venue is not big, and it is used as a reception room when the conference room is not held.
"Guest?" Li Chuan said curiously.
"It seems to be a VC." The assistant replied.
The so-called VC is the abbreviation of Venture-Capital.
"I understand." Li Chuan nodded and walked towards the conference room. In fact, the conference room and the outside world were also transparent glass walls. People could see the situation inside when they stood. As soon as Li Chuan arrived, Qiao Hongwen saw him. The two looked at each other. The latter nodded and Li Chuan opened the door and came in directly.
Suddenly, another middle-aged man in a black suit also looked back.
Qiao Hongwen stood up and smiled and said, "Mr. Liu, let me introduce it. This is the founder and chairman of Huasheng Technology, Li Chuan and Li, and this is the current SoftBank Investment Investment's investment in Greater China, Liu Jing."
Liu Jing was surprised when he heard the introduction and quickly stood up, and immediately reached out to Li Chuan and said, "Mr. Li, I'm lucky to meet you."
"Please sit down!"
After Liu Jing sat down, he looked at Li Chuan and exclaimed again: "Mr. Li is really young and promising. When you were so old, I would only chat with female classmates under the woods of the school, and I am not doing my job properly."
The three of them burst into laughter for a while, and Liu Jing continued: "Mr. Li is here too. My intention has already revealed my intention to Mr. Qiao. SoftBank is very optimistic about Huasheng's potential and is also full of sincerity. On behalf of SoftBank in China, I intend to invest in your company, hoping to account for 23% of your company's shares with the first seed round investment of US$3 billion. And this is my transfer on behalf of Mr. Masayoshi Sun, and Mr. Masayoshi Sun hopes to meet with the founder of your company in person. The time and location are up to you."
It is indeed full of sincerity. After all, SoftBank is rich and has scattered US$3 billion without blinking, only 23% of its shares. It is a rare case in investment history. Even Masayoshi Son, who is known as the godfather of the Internet, took the initiative to meet with the founder. It can also show that Huasheng Technology has great potential, but how much capital attaches it.
After Liu Jing said this, he stared at Li Chuan. He was very surprised that this young man was indifferent to such huge sums of money and angel investment. It was rare.
Li Chuan did not speak, but looked at Qiao Hongwen. The latter turned his eyes and used his eyes to indicate. Li Chuan understood and couldn't help but smile: "Mr. Liu, it's honorable but also regretful. Mr. Qiao's meaning is what I mean. Huasheng's current economic situation is good and has abundant funds. I will not consider the issue of external financing for the time being."
"It's impossible. As far as I know, your company's registered capital is less than 2 million US dollars, and it has not been profitable since its operation..." Liu Jing said very politely. It is easy for a capital investment institution like him to understand some of the basic situations of Huasheng. He also said: "Mr. Li, don't be busy refusing. If you are not satisfied, cooperation can be negotiated."
The investment given by SoftBank is to value Huasheng Technology at the super unicorn level. All the capital is clear. Although Huasheng has not been established for a long time, it is currently showing its disruptive potential. This emerging company will definitely be a technology giant with a scale of 100 billion US dollars in the future. So far, Huasheng's core competitiveness has been at its peak. It is no exaggeration to say that its opponents have not been born.
On the eve of the launch of Huasheng Technology's products, the global film and television industry began to have a major earthquake. The term subversion is not something that can be said casually, and major capital investment institutions will not give up this feast easily.
"Sorry, Mr. Liu, the financing matter is no longer in Huasheng's current planning sequence." Li Chuan refused clearly again, and while he finished speaking, he picked up a cup of tea that Qiao Hongwen's assistant had just sent and took a sip of it.
Liu Jing was about to speak, but when he saw his actions, he swallowed the organized words back into his stomach. Foreigners may not understand the meaning, but he must have understood.
Serve tea and see off guests!
In desperation, Liu Jing had to get up, and Li Chuan and Qiao Hongwen also stood up.
"Since that's the case, let's do it for the time being. But to be honest, VC SoftBank will never give up investing in your company. I firmly believe that in the future, it will impress Mr. Li with ten times and ten thousand times sincerity." Liu Jing said very confidently. How could capital watch as capital like Huasheng, which has obvious subversive power, watch it slip away from him?
"If it is possible in the future, there will definitely be a place for VC SoftBank." Li Chuan said, but added an extra sentence in his heart, "It is absolutely impossible."
Both sides shook hands politely, and Liu Jing left, leaving only the two of them in the conference room. After a while, Qiao Hongwen said: "There are several batches of VCs coming today. SoftBank is the 11th group, both at home and abroad."
After a pause, Qiao Hongwen laughed and said, "To be honest, those VCs are more sincere than the other. If I were the founders of Huasheng, I would probably not be able to withstand their 'energy' and agree."
"The passionate pursuit of capital shows the potential of Huasheng." Li Chuan said with a smile.
"But Mr. Li also exposed a problem value." Qiao Hongwen suddenly said.
“What’s the problem?”
"Capital came in kindness and turned into an angel, but it could not erase the essence of capital greed. Huasheng Technology, which has a subversive nature, is destined to be regarded as a new feast by countless capitals. Few companies can uncompromising in front of capital. But, Director Li, you will turn them out of this feast. I am worried..."
