Feigou.com is holding a financing press conference here. Even if there is no travel fee, various media from Yanjing will be present. "Sequoia", "Goldman Sachs", and "Feigou", these three together will be big news.
But when the US$220 million financing amount was announced, even if the reporter had done enough psychological preparation, there was still a scream.
The entire IT circle immediately experienced an earthquake.
However, it was Liu Edong who enjoyed such a grand occasion, while Lu Fei stayed in the Hailong Building in a low-key manner, going through the Goldman Sachs manuscript.
Dong Dong Dong, Xu Leixing knocked on the door in a hurry.
"Zizi, Dongzi is in great glory this time!"
"How is it? Secretary-General Gong is there?" Lu Fei said.
"No, but leaders from the culture, science and technology bureaus and the district are here, and Gong Xiaojing is also here to support Dongzi."
Xu Lei smacked his lips: "They are a pair of mandarin ducks, they are really a bit like the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl."
"Oh, good things come in hard times." Lu Fei stood up in a hurry.
"you do not say!"
Xu Lei stopped talking about what happened, walked to the door, ushered a tall and muscular man in, and took the initiative to introduce:
"Wang Ben, the central Nanhai bodyguard, is just like the one in Jet Li's movie. His skills are nothing to say. He recently retired from the 8341 unit and works in a high-end security company."
Hey, Ouchi guard.
Lu Fei raised his eyebrows and looked carefully at this short-haired soldier. He was in his thirties and his eyes were bright. At first glance, he looked like the kind of ruthless person who would punch someone and then kneel down to beg the person being punched not to die.
To each other, shake hands and simply get to know each other.
Wang Ben said angrily: "Mr. Lu, Brother Xu has told me that I will be your driver, bodyguard and assistant from now on."
"Hard."
Lu Fei nodded with satisfaction and accepted the job immediately.
Xu Lei asked: "Is one enough? If you ask me to give you one or two more, your current wealth is extraordinary. This time, you are going to give lectures in 5 places."
"calm down."
Lu Fei patted him on the shoulder, handed the manuscript over, and asked him to pass it on to Gong Xiaojing, more or less hoping to recover some losses and avoid being slaughtered by Goldman Sachs.
Then he picked up the keys and was about to go out. Wang Ben followed closely, obviously having entered the state.
"I am still alone today. I will report again tomorrow."
Putting down this sentence, I drove alone to the Ming Tombs Reservoir in the suburbs, where the battle at Guangmingding in "The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Sword" was filmed.
Located next to Mangshan National Forest Park, it is also a tourist attraction with hotels and resorts nearby.
Lu Fei found the hotel where Gao Yuanyuan was staying, booked a room, sent her a text message, then took a shower, washed himself thoroughly and sat on a chair.
I turned on the laptop I brought with me and went online to enter the U.S. stock interface. The first draft fee for "The World Is Flat" had already been paid into my account. After splitting it half and half with Friedman, the total amount was US$843,800.
When weighing which stock to bet on, for example, Netflix, which has just been listed on the market, the US stock price is 16.75 US dollars at this time, but in my memory, it will fall to more than 4 US dollars in a few months.
Just like NetEase, after a year or two, it skyrocketed to more than 70 US dollars. After the subprime mortgage crisis, it became even more out of control.
Just as he was thinking about it, Gao Yuanyuan knocked on the door.
Wearing white short-sleeved washed jeans, she stood slim and graceful on the spot, holding a big bag in her hand.
"hooligan."
She shouted with joy, jumped directly into the man's arms, blocked his mouth with her seductive red lips, and took the initiative to move up, down, left, left, and right, baba.
Lu Fei hugged Gao Yuanyuan and kicked her gently. The door closed in response, and he pressed her against the wall, letting her feel her bottomless hunger.
After being gentle for a while, he gasped and said, "Have you brought it?"
Gao Yuanyuan rolled her eyes at him, her pretty face was flushed, and she said angrily:
"Bring it, bring it, I'll go change, change clothes."
While she was talking, she took out Zhou Zhiruo's costume from the bag. Her fingertips holding the clothes were trembling. She was so embarrassed that she broke away from Lu Fei's wall and ran to the bathroom.
Wow, the stretch door area.
"Do you want to play "A Pair of Embroidered Shoes"? If you want to play it, just invest money."
Lu Fei leaned against the wall, unable to contain the evil smile on his face.
"When will it be filmed? The filming of "The Legend of Heaven and the Dragon Slayer" has just started and it will take another two months."
Gao Yuanyuan was a little worried about not having enough time.
Lu Fei said: "Of course I'll wait until you finish filming and join the team. If you don't arrive, how can we start filming?"
"I'm afraid I won't be able to act well. Zhou Zhiruo, I haven't even gotten into the role yet."
"Hey, it's not easy to get into the role. Just think of Zhang Wuji as me."
"Pooh!"
Gao Yuanyuan put on a long skirt, but did not put on the jade hairpin. Her long hair hung on her shoulders, her skin was fair and beautiful, but her forehead lacked a little cinnabar, and she looked exactly like Zhou Zhiruo.
Walking out of the bathroom, she pursed her lips and said: "You are best suited to play Song Qingshu! You are so bad!"
"Hey hey hey."
Lu Xiaoji was very excited. He moved forward, pinched the chin of the master of the Emei Sect, and said enthusiastically:
"It must be bad, Master. Just follow the old ways."
………
Neon, Tokyo.
"It's settled, $45 million."
Lu Yun walked out of Sun Zhengyi's office and told the truth to Cai Chongxin and Sun Tongyu who were waiting anxiously.
"What's the proportion?" Cai Chongxin asked.
"20%."
Lu Yun frowned, counting SoftBank's previous 15%, and after diluting the follow-up investment, he holds a total of 32% of Ali, making him the largest shareholder, thanks to their pursuit of AB shares.
"Finally we can make trouble." Sun Tongyu geared up.
“Our first small goal is to defeat Excellence, overthrow eBay, and first strive to be the second largest e-commerce company, and then compete with Feigou.”
Lu Yun suddenly felt confident when he had money.
Cai Chongxin frowned and said: "The biggest problem now is promotion. It is difficult to spend money. The top portals are owned by eBay, and the mid-range webmasters' personal websites are all acquired by Feigou."
"On one side is Shaolin Wudang, on the other side there are 36 holes and 72 islands. This is really difficult, but it's not hopeless. Lu Fei can teach us."
Lu Yun touched his chin, "Advertising, car, TV series, movies..."
"Mr. Lu, I have an idea."
Sun Tongyu directly recommended Zhou Hongyi’s 3721, “Although the forced installation is rogue, it can ensure Taoduoduo’s installation rate as quickly as possible.”
"Keep this idea for future use." Lu Yun thought for a moment, "Tong Yu, do you have any more?"
"Another less mature aspect is that one of the reasons why Feigou.com's users are growing so fast is QQ. It can be used, and we can take advantage of it."
Sun Tongyu suggested "link forwarding". If you successfully invite friends to register Taoduoduo accounts, you can receive Q coins, consumer coupons and other prizes, which is equivalent to a variant of "1 yuan flash sale".
"This is a great idea!"
Cai Chongxin praised: "Introducing QQ users to Taoduoduo to open Aliwangwang. As soon as it is opened, you must register a Taoduoduo account. In this way, the number of users will increase."
"This trick is called the Star Absorbing Technique. It absorbs the penguin's internal energy into us."
Lu Yun nodded with satisfaction, "Keep this idea for future use!"
………………
America, a church in Los Angeles.
The clanging bells rang and echoed in the cemetery.
The cemetery is full of lush trees, including luxuriant Japanese pine trees. The east, south and west sides are densely lined with tombstones. There are only a few tombstones on the north side, which is usually where prisoners, murderers or suicides are buried.
The evergreen canopy stands beside a tombstone.
Shao Yibo, dressed in a black suit, accompanied his wife Bao Jiaxin, holding her tightly with his hand.
The coffin is carried for burial and the tomb is covered with earth.
Bao Jiaxin held Shao Yibo's hand tightly, holding back tears and looking haggard.
He comforted her: "Jiaxin, you have to cheer up, you are still pregnant with a child."
"Hiss~"
Bao Jiaxin was sobbing faintly, exhausted both physically and mentally.
The surrounding relatives and friends meditated and prayed silently without crying, and maintained a solemn atmosphere from beginning to end.
With a rumble, workers drove bulldozers and quickly filled the graves, compacted the soil with electric tampers, and then spread green turf.
"dad!"
Bao Jiaxin threw herself into Shao Yibo's arms, trembling all over, "Can you, can you stay with us longer?"
Shao Yibo was heartbroken and made a decision that he had been thinking about for a long time: "I plan to sell eBay, and I will stay with you in the United States from now on. I won't leave."
“Selling on eBay?”
Bao Jiaxin felt a warm current, but shook his head, "Are you willing to give up? It was also founded by you, and it was also the 'child' raised by you."
“I watched someone’s speech before and he mentioned the ‘Chinese Dream’. I was thinking about what my ‘Chinese Dream’ was. Now I think about it clearly.”
Shao Yibo's heart is as clear as a lake, "China values family, and my Chinese dream is to have a happy family and a healthy family. As long as we can achieve financial freedom, everything we have in money is just numbers."
Puff puff puff, a flock of pigeons flap their wings and fly.
"You sell on eBay, do you have a buyer?" Bao Jiaxin asked.
Shao Yibo nodded, "Yes, but I hope someone will accept it."
