Chapter 1353 Still worried about the girl and Tongtong at home(4000 words)
After saying goodbye to Kang Anxiang, Tao Dingfang and others, Xia Zekai got into the car one after another with Chenchen in one hand and Jing Ling in the other, while his wife Luo Xiyun held Qingyu in her arms.
Liang Rubo, Zhang Yiming, and Xie Xindi sat in another car and first went to the Honolulu villa area, which was not far from here.
Li Guangming, who was standing at the back of the crowd, was also the person with the lowest sense of presence at the scene. After seeing Xia Zekai and the others get in the car and leave, he felt very disappointed and a little hesitant. He didn't know whether Mr. Xia's promise still counted?
Strictly speaking, this price was not achieved by himself, but with the help of the company's resources. Even the last cut was made by Xia Zekai himself.
"Hey, forget it, it depends on the situation. If the rich man or big boss doesn't give it to me, there's nothing I can do about it." Li Guangming shook his head and got rid of some bad thoughts from his mind.
…
Wang Yi drove back to the villa area in Honolulu in only half an hour. After several cars entered the villa area, everyone got out of the car.
"Yi Ming, Ru Bo, Xiao Xie, come in quickly." Xia Zekai said.
"Brother Xia, we are not outsiders here, so please stop being so polite."
While Liang Rubo was talking, several people entered the room.
Xia Zekai also said to him: "Ru Bo, please give me the phone number of that real estate agent."
"Brother Xia, is something wrong?" Liang Rubo didn't react.
Xia Zekai glared at him: "I'll get him an account number and transfer the money to him."
"Hey, young man, look at my brain, I forgot about this matter." Liang Rubo patted his head with his backhand and said, "Brother Xia, otherwise I will help you handle this matter."
"Whatever you are talking about is one thing and another. This is my personal matter. I can just transfer it to him myself." Xia Zekai said.
Liang Rubo saw that Xia Zekai was quite determined, so he stopped insisting. He rummaged through his cell phone and sent Li Guangming's phone number as a text message to his brother Xia.
"Brother Xia, this is the number." Liang Rubo said.
Xia Zekai saw the text message sent by Liang Rubo and nodded: "Okay!"
…
In the evening, Zhang Yiming, Liang Rubo and Xie Xindi had dinner at Xia Zekai's place. After seeing them off, Xia Zekai and Luo Xiyun coaxed Qingyu, Chenchen and Jing Ling to sleep. The couple chatted for a while, thinking about tomorrow.
As for Toutiao’s Series C financing, it wasn’t too late.
Before getting ready to rest, Xia Zekai called his mother Zhou Yinghong, mainly asking about Yatou and Tongtong. He learned from his mother that Yatou and Tongtong were very well-behaved tonight.
After I came back from school, I finished my homework. After dinner, I played the piano for more than an hour and watched two episodes of cartoons...
"Zekai, don't worry, I'm watching over them, they'll be fine." Zhou Yinghong looked very confident.
But to be honest, Xia Zekai didn't quite believe that his mother could subdue Yatou and Tongtong, especially Tongtong. If she started to make a fuss, would she listen to her grandma?
Just thinking about it makes it difficult!
After watching her husband finish the phone call, Luo Xiyun asked him: "Zekai, how are Yatou and Tongtong at home? Are they naughty and disobedient again?"
"No, our mother said they are very well-behaved." Xia Zekai said.
Luo Xiyun was still worried, she said: "Zekai, please tell our mother not to be deceived by their illusions."
"No, I'm still not at ease. I've been busy with Toutiao's Series C financing in the past two days, so I'll go back as soon as possible. I won't attend the groundbreaking ceremony at Xiaoai Technology. If anything happens then, you will represent me.
Just let Kaiyun Investment take full control of it." Luo Xiyunting was quite open-minded.
Hearing what his wife said, Xia Zekai was helpless, thinking that his wife would be tied up by these children for the rest of her life.
Nothing happened all night.
On the morning of the second day, Xia Zekai woke up early and called his wife Luo Xiyun.
"Daughter-in-law, let's go there early today." Xia Zekai said.
"What should we do with the three of them? Let Sister Jiang and Sister Ren stay and take care of them?" Luo Xiyun asked.
Xia Zekai shook his head: "Just take them there with you. Leave them in my office when the time comes. We can just go back after the financing meeting and come back early, so as not to delay things."
Hearing what her husband said, Luo Xiyun did not object.
After cleaning up, they didn't cook any food. They took the three siblings to a nearby chain fast food restaurant to have some breakfast. After finishing, they went straight to Yingdu Building.
This morning, a red carpet has been laid out at the entrance of Yingdu Building, and a gantry has been erected. There are also more than a dozen waist-high flower baskets placed on both sides.
People who worked in other companies in the same building were extremely envious after seeing this scene, wondering when their company would have such a scale and benefits.
It can be said that they have watched the development of Toutiao Technology Co., Ltd. step by step. The more they know about the other party's company environment and income and benefits, the more they feel sad and uncomfortable.
Among other things, Toutiao Technology Co., Ltd. even offers a monthly subsidy of 1,000 yuan for renting a house in Beijing.
I would like to ask, how many companies provide this subsidy to all employees in the company?
When Xia Zekai came over with his wife and children, Zhang Yiming, Zhang Lidong and the others were doing reception work downstairs and looked very busy.
There are quite a few capital companies coming here today, some of which Xia Zekai has met before, and some that Xia Zekai is not familiar with.
"Boss Xia, why are you here? I've been waiting for you for a long time." Xia Zekai held Jing Ling, his wife held Qingyu, and nanny Jiang Ningning held Chenchen. When he was about to walk in, someone called him from behind.
Xia Zekai looked back and saw that the person calling him was Shen Nanpeng.
"Boss Shen, good morning." Xia Zekai greeted Shen Nanpeng with a smile.
When the others saw Xia Zekai bringing his whole family and three children over, no one of them dared to ridicule him.
Just kidding, the rumored 'Boss Xia' is not a nice gentleman. Who dares to ridicule him? I really don't know how to write the word "death"!
There are rumors in the world that during the first few financings of Yizhang, Boss Xia always showed up at the financing venue with two little girls. "Bringing children to participate" has become a trademark of the company.
And this also confirms Xia Zekai's ability.
"Boss Xia, let's stop saying those polite words. Please tell me if we can discuss the matters we discussed last time again." Shen Nanpeng was heartbroken.
He didn't wait for the groundbreaking ceremony of Xiaoai Technology Co., Ltd.'s new factory. For Toutiao's Series C financing this time, he guessed that Xia Zekai would definitely come, so he hurried over.
Sure enough, as soon as he came from the hotel this morning, he ran into Xia Zekai.
"How to negotiate, Lao Shen, I didn't ask you for a high price at that time. You said you were willing to pay 5 times the premium." Xia Zekai started to argue.
The voice was not quiet, and it also attracted other people to look over. They were all curious about what big project the wolf in the investment world was discussing with Boss Xia.
Then some brave people came over and asked: "Boss Xia, Mr. Shen, what are you talking about? Isn't it convenient to add one more person?"
"I said, Lao Zhou, why are you following here to join in the fun!" Shen Nanpeng was unhappy when he saw the person coming. This is Zhou Hongyi, the leader of Qihoo 360.
After Qihoo 360 was successfully listed on the NASDAQ in the United States, they used the funds raised to develop and research the product itself, and also used part of the funds to acquire potential companies.
During Toutiao's B-round financing, Zhou Hongyi came here and subscribed for 20 million shares with the other five shareholders each. This time, he thought of coming over to follow in the investment and keep their shares.
While he is optimistic about the company Toutiao, Zhou Hongyi has also set his sights on Yixing this time. He feels that Yixing’s model also has great development prospects.
He feels that this industry cannot simply look at market share. As the market expands, its capital volume and value prominence are also gradually increasing.
"Boss Shen, you can't do this anymore. You don't know that I will share good things with you old friends as soon as possible. Why, now that you have good things, you just hide them by yourself."
"Keep it secret?" Zhou Hongyi quit.
He held Shen Nanpeng's arm and refused to let him go. It looked like he was going to create a path.
This wave of operations immediately made Shen Nanpeng angry, especially when he saw more and more people watching. Shen Nanpeng was afraid of causing further trouble, so he said helplessly: "Okay, okay, let's go quickly.
"
Xia Zekai was still holding Jing Ling and watching the show, but after seeing Lao Shen and Lao Zhou finish arguing, he knew it was not going to be a good show.
"Old Chen, are you going to my office?" Xia Zekai happened to want to drop Qingyu, Chenchen and Jing Ling into his office first. It was just a matter of convenience.
Shen Nanpeng agreed on the spot.
Zhou Hongyi also followed behind.
When passing by Zhang Yiming, Xia Zekai said to him: "Yiming, I'll go put them down first."
"Brother Xia, just go and do your work, there's nothing wrong here." Zhang Yiming said.
He is no longer unable to control the situation before. At that time, he needed Xia Zekai and Liang Rubo to help suppress the situation, but now he no longer has that worry.
After watching Xia Zekai leave, Zhang Yiming took Vice President Zhang Lidong to greet people again.
Xia Zekai took his wife, children, Shen Nanpeng and Zhou Hongyi directly to the tenth floor.
After entering the office, Xia Zekai put Jing Ling down and let the three siblings play in the office. Jiang Ningning and Ren Ping also liked the three of them.
"Boss Xia, if you can get it cheaper from Xiaoai Technology and the price is about the same, I will join." Shen Nanpeng spoke in a negotiating tone.
This made Zhou Hongyi particularly surprised, but he was even more surprised that what Shen Nanpeng discussed with Xia Zekai was not about ‘Today’s Toutiao’ or ‘Traveling’, but about another company!
At this time, Zhou Hongyi remembered that the nationally famous "Xiao Ai Classmate" was also produced by a company in which Xia Zekai had a stake.
Good guy!
This man is a money tree!
Zhou Hongyi thought he knew Xia Zekai well enough, but unexpectedly he discovered something new.
As a technology innovation company in BJ, Zhou Hongyi is really no stranger to ‘Xiaoai Technology Co., Ltd.’.
But he has been focusing on the two companies Toutiao and Yixing, and for some reason he has ignored ‘Jingcheng Xiaoai Technology Co., Ltd.’.
While Zhou Hongyi was thinking about things, the discussion between Xia Zekai and Shen Nanpeng was not over yet.
Xia Zekai shook his head: "Lao Shen, it's not that I don't give you this face. It's Xiaoai Technology and I don't make the decision alone. This matter has to be passed by several other people before I can continue to talk to you."
"You can pull him down!" Shen Nanpeng was the first to not believe it.
But Zhou Hongyi interjected at this time: "Boss Xia, I would like to excuse you, have you considered selling some of the shares in Yichuang in the near future? Shares in Toutiao are also fine!"
"That's great!" Xia Zekai thought to himself.
But he didn't show it, and looked up at Zhou Hongyi: "Chou wants to buy some?"
"Buy!" Zhou Hongyi answered simply. He said: "I have wanted to participate in the great construction of Yiyu several times, but unfortunately I missed it several times. I am very sorry."
What he said was so high-sounding that people who didn't know it really thought he had a lot of regrets, but they didn't realize that it was most likely that his original quote was too low and he was eliminated early.
Xia Zekai seemed very direct. He said: "I also have this plan in the near future. Let's wait until next month. Yixing's D round of financing is completed. If you still buy shares of Yixing, I will use the valuation of the D round of financing."
, I won’t increase the price and will transfer you some shares.”
"Sure, boss Xia is happy!" This is Zhou Hongyi's first time dealing with Xia Zekai alone.
He thought that Xia Zekai might be the kind of person who was young and difficult to deal with, but what he didn't expect was that Xia Zekai was quite easy to talk to.
Shen Nanpeng had dealt with Xia Zekai not once or twice. He was very familiar with Xia Zekai's temper.
Seeing the grateful look on Zhou Hongyi's face, he sneered in his heart: "Old Zhou, don't be too happy too soon, you will cry later."
But Shen Nanpeng didn't know that Xia Zekai really wanted to transfer some of his old Yitrip shares this time. Among other things, he still had to prepare enough 1.16 billion to purchase a courtyard house within a month, and the fastest way
Just sell a few shares.
If given a choice between Yixingxing and Toutiao, Xia Zekai would be more willing to sell some shares of Yixingxing.
As far as the current value is concerned, Toutiao is still a scarce company, and he doesn’t want to sell it unless it is absolutely necessary!
Zhou Hongyi was very happy when he heard that Xia Zekai agreed so happily. He even reached out to shake hands with Xia Zekai and said: "Boss Xia, we have made it a deal."
