At around 17:30 in the afternoon, Fang Hong came to Quantum Beat Company. He came here today to start pre-A financing for the company.
Xu Jingren, Lou Gaoyuan and other five founders were all in the CEO's office early when they received the notice from Fang Hong.
Fang Hong entered the office, and Yuan Jie, who was sitting on the sofa, suddenly said: "Boss, I suddenly feel that the way to open it is not right. You guys are so busy every day, but you are the most relaxed, and there are also school beauties like He Xuan."
With Zhi accompanying me, it’s okay to fall in love. Before, it was Lin Ruoshui, and now it’s He Xuan. It’s such a joy..."
Sun Xin also said seriously: "I agree with you. The more I think about it, the more I feel that something is wrong. I feel that the brothers are carrying a heavy burden and someone is secretly enjoying the quiet time."
Wang Ping sighed matter-of-factly: "How many of you know this? He has changed since the day he met Lin Ruoshui. I have already seen through it. Brothers who we agreed to together at the beginning are like brothers and sisters, and women are like clothes.
Now it seems that brothers are like the limbs of a centipede, and women are like winter clothes..."
Yo ho?
At a young age, you don’t want to work hard, but you start to miss your sister? Your dream is starting to waver?
This kind of thinking is unacceptable.
It seems that we need to give them more incentives, so Fang Hong sighed softly and said: "Hai~, come on, it's not even fun. As someone who has experienced it, I, who have learned from the past, and my brothers
To be fair, it is best to talk to your girlfriend as late as possible. Once you have talked, you have to spend a lot of time coaxing her to accompany you, otherwise she will make trouble with you. You are wrong to go in with your left foot today. It is a pure waste of energy.
It’s really annoying that you have a net output, and you’re trying to get in trouble all the time. I’ve fallen into a trap and there’s nothing I can do about it.”
I saw the suspicious eyes on the brothers' faces and the disbelief on their faces.
Fang Hong had no choice but to amplify his tactics and once again instilled chicken soup (hu) soup (you) in his heart (ge) inside (ge) (zhong) (hu) soup (you), and then said in an orderly manner: "I have recently realized a truth. As a man, you must not be careless in this life.
Just two things."
Sun Xin subconsciously asked: "Which two?"
The brothers looked at Fang Hong curiously, and the latter sighed, and then turned into a life mentor and spoke to them: "The first thing is to find the right career, and the second thing is to find the right lover.
Because when the sun rises, you have to devote yourself to your career, and when the sun sets, you have to embrace your lover."
Upon hearing this, everyone felt that there seemed to be nothing wrong with what the boss said.
Fang Hong said with emotion: "We are looking for two things throughout our lives, one is the sense of value and the other is the sense of belonging. The sense of value comes from being affirmed, the sense of belonging comes from being loved, and value establishes belonging.
, career determines love.”
The brothers nodded in agreement, there was nothing wrong with it.
Fang Hong saw that some of them were beginning to think deeply, so he decisively stepped up his efforts and further said: "It is said that to build a family, a good wife and a good mother are wrong. We should read it the other way around. A good mother, a good wife, a good wife, a good career and a successful family."
The brothers immediately looked at the boss suspiciously.
Fang Hong then began to explain this sentence: "A good mother and a good wife means that the mother-in-law is virtuous, and her daughter is probably the same. It is better to understand that it is better to build a family. If you don't even have a place to establish yourself, how can you have a family? So the final answer is
When the eucalyptus comes out, you must first build a career, as career is the most basic logical support factor!"
The brothers nodded again and again to express their agreement, and there was nothing wrong with it.
Fang Hong turned around and smiled, and said methodically: "Actually, each of us has our own destiny, so how do we find our own destiny? It's very simple, just start based on your nature, and then when you do a certain thing, you will be very excited.
, when it makes you feel valuable, that is your mission in this life and your destiny."
Wang Ping suddenly said: "So writing software is my destiny? I just feel super excited and valuable every time I develop a program."
Fang Hong glanced at Xiao Wang and said concisely: "Then your mission in this life will most likely be to become an outstanding engineer."
Then Fang Hong looked around at everyone, raised his hand to hold it with his thumb and index finger, and then said: "Brothers of the pattern, open the pattern, brothers, open the pattern."
At this time, Xu Jingren thought for a while and suddenly said: "That's not right, boss, then why did you get divorced so quickly? And you fell in love with Lin Ruo and immediately fell in love with He Xuan. If you explain this like this, don't try to frame the brothers.
Wow..."
"Ahem..." Fang Hong raised his hand and coughed a few times, but his face was calm and composed. He sighed softly again, and then looked at the brothers with doubtful faces and said, "You know Hexuan owns a Lamborghini supercar."
Did you run away?"
The brothers nodded, and Yuan Jie immediately said: "I know, I've wanted to ask you about this for a long time."
Fang Hong said matter-of-factly: "Then you should know that I couldn't have given it to her, right? I didn't embezzle the company's finances. This Jingren knows best. A top-notch supercar worth more than three million yuan is currently the only one in Xincheng."
One, such a luxury car, even if I sell it, I can’t even afford a few wheels, right?”
The brothers nodded again, um, nothing wrong.
Fang Hong then said: "Then think about it, why can I easily get angel investment for Quantum Beat? It's five million in return. We haven't even built a product. Why? Do you really think the investors are so good?"
Are you cheating? You taste it carefully..."
At this time, the boss is giving crazy guidance, trying to lead the younger brothers' thinking in a direction that deviates further and further away from the truth, the further away the better.
The effect finally appeared.
At this moment, Lou Gaoyuan said with a look of enlightenment: "I understand, Hexuan's family must have a very rich background, and the capital invested in us should be closely related to Hexuan's family, boss,
Am I right?"
Hearing this, the boss felt relieved, and Fang Hong silently responded in his heart: [We didn't say that, it was just something you made up in your own head]
Fang Hong's face was not red, his heart was not beating, and he said calmly: "Then you should understand why I want to be with He Xuan, right?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Wang Ping also looked like he finally understood and said what he thought: "It turns out that the boss chose to break up with Lin Ruoshui in order to attract investment for the company.
A woman you don’t love is amazing. It’s amazing to sacrifice oneself to achieve the greater self. The boss deserves to be the boss..."
Fortunately, Fang Hong was a senior figure who had seen big battles and big scenes, otherwise he might have been stuck in Bengbu at this moment.
Several buddies connected the cause and effect logic of the whole incident in their own minds: it was Fang Hong who chased Hexuan, and Hexuan's family was extremely rich, and then he got the support and appreciation of Hexuan's family, and then he got investors who were happy
The angel round financing for Quantum Beat was 5 million. It’s right when you think about it. The campus network team couldn’t get investment back then, so why was it so easy for Quantum Beat? Isn’t it because of the relationship with the boss’s girlfriend’s family?
Well...there's nothing wrong with it!
Xu Jingren didn't speak. He put his hands around his chin and looked thoughtful. He always felt that something was not right, but he didn't understand what was wrong.
"It's over, don't hold us up so high." Fang Hong said with a smile. Seeing that he was cheating... er, no, he was almost inspired, so he immediately changed the subject and said: "To get down to business, I came to the company today to
For pre-A round financing."
As soon as they heard Fang Hong talking about financing, the brothers immediately turned their attention. Xu Jingren didn't think about what was wrong, he rubbed his hands and said excitedly: "What do you think of this financing?"
Fang Hong calmly told everyone: "The pre-A round of financing is still the exclusive investment of Qunxing Capital. This time the other party wants 30% of the equity."
Everyone was surprised when they heard this. Yuan Jie couldn't help but said: "What's going on? You want to sell 30% this time?"
Qunxing Capital took away 30% of the equity this time, which means that the equity ratio held by them is diluted from 11.96% to 8.372%. Continuing to raise funds later means that it will continue to be diluted.
Fang Hongsha sighed as if something was wrong: "Life is about slowly moving from asking for people to not asking for people, and being arrogant without asking for people. You have to bow your head when you are under the eaves. When you bow your head, you have to know,
Your living conditions are still very limited, otherwise why would you keep your head down? The current situation of Quantum Beat is that the living conditions are limited, and there is pressure from competitors outside. You have to ask for help, but slowly you move from asking for help to not asking for help. I think this is both Quantum Jump and Quantum Beat.
The goal is also the goal that everyone strives for.”
Everyone nodded in unison and said, "It makes sense."
At this time, Fang Hong turned around and said with a smile: "We didn't suffer a loss either. Although we sold a lot of equity, the company's valuation was also higher and we got more money. I secured 90 million in pre-A round financing."
, the company is valued at about 300 million. Although the equity in your hands has been diluted a lot, it is more valuable. The previous 11.96% equity was worth more than 7 million, and now the diluted 8.372% total value has exceeded 25 million."
Several roommates were shocked when they heard that 90 million yuan had been raised. After calculating the diluted equity in their hands, the total value more than doubled, from more than 7 million to more than 25 million, which greatly offset the dilution of equity.
Loss aversion, anyway, the control of the company is firmly in the hands of the founding team.
Fang Hong looked at everyone and said: "After the pre-a financing, the equity structure of Quantum Beating, the shares of the five of you have dropped to 8.372%, the option pool reservation has dropped to 12.88%, and mine has dropped to 9.66%, Qunxing Capital accounts for the company's equity
The proportion has increased to 35.6%, becoming the largest shareholder of Quantum Beating. Of course, its shares are Class A shares with 1 vote and 1 voting right, and the control is still in the hands of our founder team."
Xu Jingren and others nodded silently.
At this time, Lou Gaoyuan suggested: "I think our company can slow down its expansion appropriately? Save some money. After all, it is all the money exchanged for the shares."
Fang Hong immediately denied: "No, the company can only expand quickly or slowly. We are an Internet company, and the nature of the industry is a typical Matthew effect. The winner takes all. Don't pick up the sesame seeds and lose the watermelons. Look at the competition in QQ
What is the situation of the opponent now? If the company dies, even if it has 100% equity, it will be meaningless, and the value of the shares in hand is not as good as toilet paper."
"I agree with the boss's statement that expansion can only be accelerated and cannot be slowed down." Xu Jingren nodded repeatedly and said, then looked at Lou Gaoyuan and asked: "One has 11.96% of the shares but is only worth less than 7.5 million, and the other
It’s 8.372% of the shares but worth more than 25 million. Would you rather choose the former or the latter?”
Lou Gaoyuan said without hesitation: "Nonsense, of course it's the latter."
Xu Jingren spread his hands and said, "Isn't that okay?"
Lou Gaoyuan nodded and said: "Okay, anyway, I am responsible for the technical aspect. The division of labor is clear. The management and general direction of the company are the business of you and the boss."
Fang Hong said with a smile: "As long as the company continues to grow stronger and bigger, and the valuation continues to rise, even if the equity is diluted, our absolute value will continue to rise. Remember, we must have an incremental mindset and make the cake bigger.
Even if we cut a smaller proportion of the cake in the end, the actual cake we get is several times, ten times or even dozens or hundreds of times larger than it is now."
Yuan Jie nodded: "It makes sense."
Fang Hong turned to Xu Jingren and asked: "How is the current user situation on the Weibo platform?"
Speaking of this, everyone quickly became excited. Xu Jingren immediately said: "Now the cumulative number of user registrations has reached 3.73 million. Such a terrifying growth rate is indispensable to the blogger k3478. The account's current attention volume has been
It has reached more than 2.3 million, and almost all of his fans are new users attracted from external sites, and their activity is extremely high."
Xu Jingren sighed with emotion again, looked around the crowd and said: "I finally understand why the boss's three-step promotion strategy requires cooperation with celebrities. The celebrity effect is terrible. Think about if those popular celebrities would open accounts on our platform one after another.
, then the number of users cannot soar like a rocket?”
Seeing their excited faces, Fang Hong immediately said: "It cannot be generalized. The users attracted by the blogger k3478 are all A-share investors, and the biggest motivation for investors to follow the blogger k3478 is to think about it."
Being able to make money with him is essentially to make money, and making money is the biggest motivation. The celebrity's presence to attract his fans to follow up cannot be compared with the motivation brought by the factor of making money. Of course, the drainage effect of celebrities
It still shouldn’t be underestimated, after all, ardent fans are also crazy.”
After thinking about it for a while, Xu Jingren couldn't help but nodded: "That's right."
Fang Hong said with a smile: "Of the 90 million funds, 10 million will be available in a week, and all the funds will be in place within a month. The company's first priority is to successfully organize the 'First Micro-Novel' Contest and use
This planning activity aims to be promoted to more than 2,600 universities across the country in the first quarter of next year."
After a moment of pause, Fang Hong added: "We also need to speed up the expansion. The rapid growth of platform users has probably attracted the attention of those Internet giants. They may end their plans in the micro-blog field at any time, so we must not relax.
"A temporary lead does not mean success. The one who laughs at the end is the ultimate winner. You must not fall short because there is only one winner."
Xu Jingren and others nodded heavily, feeling full of energy.
Fang Hong turned to say in a relaxed atmosphere: "Work hard, keep fighting, brothers, our situation is very good, and the status of strivers must be maintained. I believe that in less than three years, the Internet that we can only look up to now will be
Elders, we will eventually be able to sit on the same stage as them, sitting on the big sofa on the stage with our legs crossed, chatting and laughing, and giving advice."
When the several young co-founders thought of the picture painted by Fang Hong, their blood boiled every minute, and they seemed to be full of energy.
The team is very motivated and the boss is very satisfied.
When you are young, you only think about girls. This kind of thinking is really unacceptable. Focus on your career and fight wholeheartedly, and you will succeed.
We must have lofty ideals, change the world, and serve all mankind.
That’s right!
In this way, the boss can have more free time to play, communicate and interact with the girls, uh no, he can have more time to think about the company's long-term plan, indicate the general strategic direction, etc.
