Xia Yin was very happy. Being able to get on the cars of these companies at this time was really a profit.
Just take Gaopeng.com, a group buying website, which was launched in November 2008 and started raising US$140 million in June 2009.
The key is that this company will be listed in June 2011, and the company's valuation at the time of listing has already reached 24 billion U.S. dollars. This speed is unimaginable.
That is because they invested in the market from the beginning, otherwise no one would want to enter the market now.
However, there are not many shares. Xia Yin believes that as long as he can maintain 3% to 4% of the shares before listing, and then find someone to take over and exit, he will make a lot of money.
Not to mention Airbnb, a future giant with a market value of 100 billion, if it can still hold 10% to 15% of the shares after listing, that would be enough.
Not to mention Uber, Xia Yin will also hold it for a long time.
"How's it going at Riot Games?"
Xia Yi looked strange, "It's developing very well. The game is now online in North America and has more than 300,000 players."
“It’s just that Penguin is planning to officially bring this game to the Chinese market early next year, in January 2010.
Riot Games is also preparing to bring this game to the global market early next year, and is now looking for partners in various markets, and all of this work will be completed before November this year."
"It's very good. We will also start the s game and strive to quickly promote this game to players around the world. This will become a feast, I believe!"
"Okay, that's it. Brother, please be more careful."
Seeing that he was about to run away again, Xia Yi shouted quickly, "Just because you should worry more about the fund."
"Don't worry, I'm always paying attention and will never hold you back. I will definitely have enough funds."
Xia Yin turned around and left the company.
It's just because the fund's main business is investment and financial management in the stock market, and it's precisely because it provides funds that we have the current continuous investment projects. Xia Yin is responsible for this area.
Xia Yin went directly back to Los Angeles without staying in the Bay Area.
After all, the draft is coming soon, and this cannot be missed. After all, Curry and Harden both sent text messages to Shain and asked him to watch the draft. They also knew that Shain would definitely not come to the scene.
At home in Los Angeles, because it’s summer vacation, Lisa and Thalia have time, so they have been staying at home these days.
"I'm back!"
"Come here quickly, the draft is about to start."
"Oh, then I want to observe it carefully."
Kate is not at home either, so the two little girls and the nanny who cooks are here, so they can play freely.
Xia Yin lay down on the sofa, with the potato chips given by Thalia in his left hand and the Coke given by Lisa in his right hand.
A bite of potato chips and a bite of Coke is so comfortable.
Before he could enjoy it more, the call came in.
"Hey, what are you looking for me for?"
"Hey, isn't this the draft today? Where are you? Let's watch it together?"
Westbrook's voice came from the receiver.
"You have nowhere to go?"
"how do you know?"
This time, Xia Yin couldn't handle it. No wonder everyone said that sincerity is the greatest skill.
"Okay, okay, come on, I'm at home, you know where I am."
Westbrook chuckled, "Just wait, I'll be there soon. I'll be right here at the university, waiting for me."
After hanging up the phone and looking at the disgusted expressions on Lisa and Thalia's faces, Xia Yin coughed and said, "The turtle will come over to watch the draft together later."
Thalia turned around and said, "I'm going to get a beer."
Lisa picked up the phone and said, "I'll order takeout and buy some snacks."
Xia Yin lay on the sofa contentedly and looked at it, this is called professionalism.
Because it hasn't officially started yet, the commentators are now giving a preview of this rookie class, and Barkley, Kenny Smith and the former king of AC, Larry Bird, are bragging.
"Will there be a player like Shayne this year?" Kenny Smith asked a soul question.
Upon hearing this, Xia Yin also put down his cell phone that was browsing the news and began to listen carefully to what these guys would say.
Bird shook his head, "There is only one Xia Yin. I don't think there can be another Xia Yin in a row. I even think Xia Yin is a very special one. He has a strong personal style."
Bird boasted loudly as soon as he opened his mouth. There must be a purpose for allowing this guy to boast like this.
Barkley looked wary, "You put it like that, do you want to trade for Shain?"
A smile appeared on Bird's face, "Oh, Barkley, there's no need for this. Anyway, Shayne's contract with the Suns is only for 2 years. The contract will expire at the end of this year, right?"
Barkley snorted, "So what? He said he would definitely bring the Suns a championship."
"But Shain also said that next year, he will bring the Suns the championship next year. His contract will expire by then. Isn't that just right? Or Barkley, do you think the Suns are suitable for Shain?"
Barkley was anxious, "Why isn't it suitable? The Suns are now united and have the same goal..."
Balabala said a lot, and Bird spread his hands and said, "Yes, what you said is correct, but this was before winning the championship. After winning the championship, many things will change."
"Barkley, I know you don't have a championship. Maybe you don't understand the idea of a championship, but I think Kenny should understand."
Kenny Smith originally didn't want to get involved in this topic, but when he saw Bird driving Barkley's team without a championship, he jumped on board without thinking, "Yes, I admit that a championship can change a lot of things. You don't understand Barkley, but you can understand."
, after all, you don’t have a championship.”
Bird and Kenny Smith laughed and even high-fived each other in front of Barkley.
Barkley looked sad and angry, "What's wrong with not having a championship? How great is it to have a championship?"
"Hey, you're right, having a champion is great."
"Otherwise, Kobe would argue with Shayin: When are you a champion? Why would Shayin drag O'Neal in? This is the power of a championship. He can't answer what Kobe says!"
Barkley is filled with grief and anger, the hateful champion, the hateful Kenny Smith and Larry Bird, and the hateful Kobe!
Kenny Smith didn't criticize Barkley too much and gave him a step up. "The championship can indeed change a lot, but it can't affect Shain, right? Several core grades of the Suns are older, so this kind of thing should not happen.
?”
Bird still shook his head, "You guys are different. Everything from team management, to the lineup, to the chemical reaction between the players, and even the players' own thoughts are all very important."
"But the Suns can't provide these to Xia Yin. I watched the Suns games for a whole season. In the playoffs, Xia Yin has obviously improved a lot. His improvement may be even greater next season."
"And Xia Yin is very special. What he wants is different from ordinary talented players. Just take a look. I believe in my own vision."
Xia Yin touched his chin and blinked, "Old man, you're pretending to be on me, but you really managed to do it."
The three of them were still talking nonsense, and Xia Yin's thoughts were stretched. The 2008-09 season was already very successful, and his strength had increased significantly.
But next season, especially the Suns, who are still going to compete for the championship next season, if they can really win the championship.
How many attribute point rewards can Xia Yin receive, and how far can his strength progress?
But at this time, it has reached another stage.
When his rookie period is over, he will definitely go to a team where he can be the boss and make the decision.
But the Suns can't give you that.
From the team owner to the team lineup, no one can meet Shain's requirements. He doesn't like Phoenix. If he doesn't improve early, why is he waiting to waste time here?
On TV, Bird said directly to the camera, "Shane, I can wait for you to fulfill your promise, and I believe you can do it, so how about considering the Pacers?
With me here, I can satisfy you with whatever you want!"
Kenny Smith and Barkley were both stunned. You guys are doing live TV. Are you going to directly tell Shayne to go to the Pacers?
Big cornfield? What’s there?
Shine also heard it, but when he thought of the Pacers, Big Cornfield and Danny Granger popped into his mind, plus at most Larry Bird.
"Oh, don't even go there. If you go there, you might as well stay in Phoenix. It doesn't matter what you want."
On the other side, several concerned coaches and managers who were watching the live broadcast started cursing as soon as Bird opened his mouth.
No wonder you are going to participate in the draft commentary. It turns out you are doing off-the-record tricks.
Nelson even scolded the TV directly, and only the logo man was as stable as a rock.
"Why aren't you angry? This is an open recruitment."
The logo man smiled faintly, "So? Do you think Xia Yin will go to the big cornfield? Or will he go to the pedestrians who can see the end at a glance? You are thinking too much."
"Even if Larry gave him great power, their starting point is too low, and the key is that they still have no potential. Even if they have the courage, they are not as good as us, not to mention that I am in the Warriors."
These words were extremely domineering, but Old Nelson could not refute.
"Let's focus on the draft. As long as he is here, we will have the confidence to talk to Xia Yin. This is the first step. If there is no first step, there will be no hope."
As soon as the logo man said this, Old Nelson stopped talking.
However, the Suns fans who were watching the live broadcast became passionate. They directly rushed to the Pacers' official social network and started fighting with the Pacers fans.
But Xia Yin's fans have an ambiguous attitude. They didn't say much at this time because Xia Yin has never said in public that he will stay in Phoenix forever.
He has not even mentioned his next contract, but has always emphasized that he will help Phoenix win the championship.
What about after winning the championship?
Now that Bird has torn this gap open, Xia Yin's fans suddenly discovered that it is really possible for their idol to be handsome. At this time, they naturally watched the show in silence.
But fans of other teams became excited when they heard this, and rushed to Shain's Twitter and Facebook accounts to post comments.
"Xia Yin, come to the Big Apple!"
"Xia Yin, my Xia Yin, come back to Los Angeles!"
"Xia Yin, welcome to the Bay Area!"...
As soon as everyone heard that Xia Yin might leave Phoenix, they didn't even pay attention to the draft. This is the strongest rookie entering the 21st century. He still has a bright future. Getting Xia Yin means getting the future.
Xia Yin himself did not expect a series of twists and turns.
I logged into my Twitter and Facebook accounts and posted a short composition:
[Talking about transfers and leaving, talking about the distant future, I just want Phoenix to win the cup and everyone can realize their dreams. You are thinking too far, how can you be so ambitious? A certain little snake is still waiting to see the joke.]
Kobe didn't expect to see him, but after Xia Yin's "head attack", he became more rational.
[Xia Yin, do you want to come to the Lakers? I will help you win the championship. Don’t worry, the future is yours!]
Xia Yin replied to Kobe: [Oh? I don’t want to hear the media say to me one day in the future: Xia Yin, Kobe said you did it too! I don’t want to be on a team with childish people. I am not good at raising children.
〕
When Kobe saw this @ message, his face turned red and his neck was thick, like a raging bull, he threw the phone directly to the ground and yelled viciously, "Xia Yin, you are finished, I will never let you win the championship.
!”
Vanessa ran out quickly, "What's wrong? What's wrong?"
Looking at the mess in the living room, Vanessa sighed: Hey, it’s another day to coax the kids!
Xia Yin's ridicule also caused fans from all walks of life to start criticizing Xia Yin. You did it too. This ancient meme has become very lively on the Internet.
At this time, the doorbell suddenly rang.
Xia Yin opened the door, and Guigui stood at the door with big and small bags of things and a silly smile. "I brought a lot of food. I think we can have a happy day."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "You have grown up, and you still know how to bring things to your door. This is not like you, turtle!"
Westbrook sighed, walked into the living room and put down his things, "Isn't this rich? Although I am not as rich as you, I have enough. In addition, after experiencing Adu's "generousness", I suddenly realized a lot
thing."
Xia Yin suppressed his laughter, Durant was really weird.
Invite teammates to meals at the buffet, give gifts and crispy noodles, and ride in teammates' cars to save on gas costs. As long as you're not treating yourself, you'll definitely be there, and you'll still be the one who eats the most.
Who wouldn’t be confused when meeting such a team boss?
What's more, there is a contrast. Facing the baptism of Durant, Turtle's progress is naturally rapid.
"Okay, okay, sit down quickly, it's about to start."
By this time, Lisa and Thalia had also finished ordering things.
"Hi, Turtle!" the two said in unison.
Westbrook's face turned even darker, "You two are imitating Xia Yin instead of imitating others. This is not a good boy."
Lisa and Thalia said in unison again, "Okay, Turtle!"
Xia Yin laughed loudly after hearing this.
"Okay, Turtle, do you know which one your team will choose this year? You have the No. 3 pick."
Guigui scratched his head, "I don't know, they didn't tell me this, I'm just a rookie."
"I also want to ask you, you also have the 20th pick, which player are you going to select?"
Xia Yin shook his head, "I didn't ask. No matter who they pick, they won't get many opportunities with the Suns next season. Anyway, it's just the 20th pick in the first round. They can pick whoever they like."
The Suns have traded out all their second-round picks, and they really don't need rookies now.
Guigui's eyes lit up when he heard this, "The Suns don't value you. How could they not discuss such a big matter with you? Do they still think you are just a rookie?"
"This is not like us Thunder. We only care about you."
When Xia Yin heard this, he looked at Guigui with an incomprehensible expression.
"Do you know what you are talking about? Why did it suddenly taste like tea? The key is that the taste is still very good!"
