Before the annual International Electronics Show, no one would have thought that holographic technology would be revealed at the show, which would amaze every audience and every investor with its fake and real three-dimensional images.
He Hao and everyone else are really happy. Among other things, the development of Coastline Technology also means that their future and prospects are unlimited, and they can step onto a broader platform.
"Mr. Ye is so cool when he introduces products on site. A celebrity in the technology circle will definitely have a place as our boss in the future." Mo Daixuan said with admiration. Ye Hua talked (chui) and (niu) at the exhibition.
(pi) indeed has the demeanor of a technology guru.
"Okay, okay, I'm being praised. This won't help you in raising your salary." Ye Hua said with a smile. After everyone was busy for a while, they immediately went to work and stayed in a promising company.
, and he is also a veteran of this company, and Jingping and others are becoming more and more motivated as they work.
Ye Hua was not too happy about Coastline Technology's success at the electronics show. Such success was not a real success and did not bring much actual benefits to the company's current situation.
If Coastline Technology wants to initially stabilize the situation, it must achieve commercialization. Only when it gets the first corporate revenue profit can it truly complete the start.
There is no doubt that making products is the top priority next. The steady advancement of the plan requires manpower. The company currently has only nine people. Except for Qiao Wei who is Ye Hua's secretary, He Hao and the other seven are all programmers.
After all, it is not a long-term solution to do things as an administrator, and it is imperative to expand recruitment.
Not long after I returned to the company, it was almost time to get off work, but at this time, Coastline Technology received a proactive visit from a customer for the first time.
"Mr. Ye, two people who claim to be VC Venture Capital have come to the company and want to meet with you." Qiao Wei came to the CEO's office and reported.
When Ye Hua heard her change of address, he smiled and said, "Just call me by my name. There is no need to call me Mr. Ye."
"That won't work. Coastline Technology is a serious technology company. Everything must have rules. You are the boss of the company and I am just your secretary. How can this be done?" Qiao Wei smiled sweetly: "
However, when I’m not at work, privately I’m still the same as before.”
"Okay." After thinking for a moment, Ye Hua nodded with a smile. Although Qiao Wei did not have any work experience in the secretarial position, so far, she has done a good job in this new job, and there is basically nothing to fault.
place.
He and Qiao Wei left the office together. The people from the venture capital organization moved so quickly and their methods were amazing. In such a short period of time, they found the company address of Coastline Technology and everyone came.
Ye Hua is surprised but not too surprised by this. He has a keen sense of capital. Computational holographic technology has made a stunning debut on a big industry stage like the annual International Electronics Show. The names of Ye Hua and Coastline Technology are probably already investing.
It spread within the circle.
The computational holographic effects presented at the exhibition can be said to have amazed the technology circle. Holographic imaging technology is a technology with infinite imagination. This is the charm of holographic technology.
The guests are now waiting in the waiting room. The office area of Coastline Technology has reached nearly a thousand square meters, so a reception room of tens of square meters will definitely be indispensable.
: "It's really surprising. It's in the Central Building. This company can't operate without tens of thousands of dollars a year. It's not like a start-up company can afford such wealth. Does the founder have any background?
Or which scientific research institution does it come from?”
: "Our people are investigating and collecting his information. If we can develop real holographic technology, there must be something extraordinary that we cannot see. We cannot rule out that there is a scientific research institution and team behind it."
: "Holographic technology, this is such a tempting technology, I guess the capital that is eyeing the coastline can no longer tolerate it."
:"nature."
With the arrival of Ye Hua, the two VC venture capitalists waiting in the reception room stopped their private discussion. The leader, a middle-aged man in a formal suit, stood up immediately, stretched out his hand to shake Ye Hua's hand with a smile on his face, "
It's a pleasure to meet you. Mr. Ye's youth is really shocking, but what's even more shocking is your company's computational holographic imaging technology, which shocked everyone. It still shocks me when I think about it."
Ye Hua simply skipped the self-introduction. It was not surprising that the other party knew his name. After all, the name Ye Hua is probably already well-known in the investment circle.
The middle-aged man immediately said: "Oh, sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. Shen Taoli, the current head of Greater China of idg Technology Venture Capital Fund."
Idg Venture Capital, a company that Ye Hua knew a little bit about, was a venture capital institution founded in 1992. It was one of the first venture capital institutions to enter Greater China. It has invested in more than 300 companies in China, including many well-known domestic companies.
They have invested in all the Internet companies, such as the largest social network company, the largest search engine, the largest security software, etc., and more than 80 of the invested companies have been successfully listed or acquired.
IDG invests in a variety of fields. In addition to Internet companies, they also invest in consumer goods, services, medical health, clean energy, etc.
After some polite greetings, Shen Taoli inquired in a curious tone: "I don't know which scientific research laboratory your company's computational holographic technology comes from? Idg Ventures has been paying attention to the development of holographic technology, but I really can't think of it.
Where does the company’s technology come from?”
"Laboratory of Thought!" Ye Hua replied.
Shen Taoli and his assistants were stunned after hearing this. They looked at each other, a little confused. When they looked at Ye Hua again to ask, the latter nodded his head with a smile.
"Uh..." Shen Taoli was stunned again, but he quickly came to his senses and said politely in his embarrassment: "It's unbelievable. I didn't expect that the holographic technology was actually created by Mr. Ye. Uh, I'm going to take the liberty to ask,
Mr. Ye, which university did you graduate from?"
Knowing that it was presumptuous to ask questions, Ye Hua wanted to retaliate, and then said with a smile: "Pheasant University, it's not worth mentioning."
Qiao Wei on the side couldn't help but laugh silently. Shen Taoli was embarrassed for the third time and realized that he was a little rude. He reorganized his words and got to the point, saying: "Mr. Ye must have guessed our intention, so I will
Frankly speaking, through internal research, idg Venture Capital believes that it is very optimistic about your company's potential. As a start-up, your company must be particularly short of funds. We are very willing to share the entrepreneurial risks with your company and provide you with strong financial support.
support."
"Want to hear the details!" Ye Huayan said concisely and comprehensively.
Shen Taoli nodded with a smile and continued: "Your company is undoubtedly a unicorn company. IDG Ventures is willing to acquire 20% of the shares of Coastline Technology with an investment scale of US$200 million in your company's seed round investment." , and in future financing, idg Venture Capital will continue to lead or follow in the investment."
Qiao Wei on the side was extremely shocked when she heard the figure of 200 million US dollars. How much does it cost? It is an astronomical sum, and it only accounts for 20% of the shares. Why is money so worthless? Rich people are all Is this how you play?
Shen Taoli saw the surprised expression of the beautiful secretary next to Ye Hua because of the numbers. He felt very happy and refreshed. As a VC investor, being good at observation is a necessary quality. Seeing Qiao Wei's performance Then he was asked to confirm that Coastline Technology was indeed a start-up technology company, just a group of young technical geniuses.
Shen Taoli was so surprised that he had received two hundred million U.S. dollars. He obviously had never been exposed to huge wealth. Shen Taoli was very satisfied. However, what surprised him was that Ye Hua was very calm and looked at him highly for a while, but he also Relieved, after all, he is also the founder and helmsman of Coastline Technology, so he should be.
But because Ye Hua's youth did not allow him to see too much, Shen Taoli became more and more calm and gained great confidence in taking the initiative.
Obviously, IDG Venture Capital’s preliminary valuation of Coastline is US$1 billion, which is a “unicorn” level enterprise.
