After having a buffet breakfast in the hotel, Xia Zekai and his family of four went to the Golden Kelly Hotel first. Then Cui Xiaofeng drove back and picked up Liang Tongshun and the four of them.
The C round of financing of Jingcheng Yixing Technology Co., Ltd. was held at the Golden Kelly Hotel just like the B round of financing.
When Xia Zejiang and his family of four came down, a banner had already been hung at the door of the hotel with the words "Celebrating the successful Series C financing of Jingcheng Yixing Technology Co., Ltd.".
A bright red carpet has been laid out at the entrance of the hotel, and two rows of one-meter-high rattan flower baskets are placed on both sides of the door. Flowers of various colors are inserted in the flower baskets. Water droplets seem to be rolling on the petals, and the fragrance of the flowers penetrates the heart.
"Dad, that flower is so beautiful. Please pick one for me and wear it." Tongtong started to be naughty as soon as she got off the car.
Xia Zekai said: "That's not okay. If you go to pick flowers, your uncle and aunt will take you away."
Tongtong obviously didn't believe it. She curled her lips, tilted her round chin, and said, "Dad knows how to lie. Just hold me and pick one. I know kung fu, so I'm not afraid of my uncle and aunt taking me away."
After she finished speaking, she also put on a five-position plum blossom boxing stance on the spot, and raised her little hand towards Xia Zekai: "Dad, if you scare me again, I will beat you now..."
She couldn't remember anything after being beaten.
"-_-" Xia Zekai's face turned dark.
Then there was a burst of hearty laughter: "Haha, Brother Xia, Tongtong is so cute."
"It's so cute. Don't you see that this little kid is so hateful and the beating was too light." Xia Zekai said, holding up his palm.
The next moment, Tongtong immediately ran behind her mother, hugged her thigh, and shouted: "Mom, look, daddy wants to beat me, you beat her!"
Liang Rubo and Zhang Yiming, who had just come out of the hotel, were dumbfounded. The scene in front of them somewhat ruined their outlook.
They didn't care and asked: "Brother Xia, you are here so early."
"It's okay in the hotel. How are the preparations here?" Xia Zekai asked.
Liang Rubo nodded and said, "Everything is ready. I guarantee there will be no problems."
Zhang Yiming originally didn't plan to come, but after thinking about it over and over again, he finally came.
He was going downstairs to greet the guests coming today.
He was still thinking in his mind, ‘When will Toutiao be able to achieve the status it has now?’, but he was not confident.
Xia Zekai didn't go up either. He said, "I'll pick you up here with you."
If he didn't go up, it would be pointless for Luo Xiyun to go up. Yatou and Tongtong wanted to run around even more. Tongtong's eyes were still staring at the flowers in the basket, thinking of grabbing a few to play with.
She took her mother's hand, shook it slowly, and said, "Mom, pick one for me and one for your sister."
At the critical moment, she was smarter and knew how to drag her sister into trouble.
This made Zhang Yiming and Liang Rubo amused again. They couldn't stand it anymore. One of them took a flower from the basket, pinched off the branches and leaves, and handed the flowers to Yatou and Tongtong respectively. The two little ones The guys finally got the flowers, and they couldn't help being happy. They held them under their noses, smelled them, and asked their mother to pin the flowers in their hair.
Tongtong shouted sweetly: "Thank you Uncle Zhang, thank you Uncle Liang."
The girl also thanked him.
Before other guests could arrive, the four soldiers brought by Luo Xiyun arrived first.
Liang Rubo and Zhang Yiming were still wondering, which capital fund did these four women wearing suits and leather shoes belong to?
But before they could think of it, they saw four people walking directly to Luo Xiyun and shouting: "Mr. Luo, we are here."
Liang Rubo and Zhang Yiming were stunned for a moment. Liang Rubo asked, "Sister-in-law, what are you doing?"
Liang Tongshun, Song Jinpeng and others had learned a lot about Beijing Yichuang Technology Co., Ltd. before they came here, especially Liang Rubo, the legal representative and general manager of Yichuang.
At this time, they saw Liang Rubo calling their boss "sister-in-law". Liang Tongshun, Song Jinpeng, Wang Fang and Sun Yuping were dumbfounded. What was this about?
Luo Xiyun said: "I came here today on behalf of Kaiyun Investment to participate in the C round of financing of Yixing. I only represent our Kaiyun Investment Company and myself personally. Brother Liang, can you see if I can participate?"
Liang Rubo subconsciously looked at Xia Zekai, wanting to see what Brother Xia had to say.
This seemed a bit strange to him.
Then I heard Xia Zekai say: "Rubo, in this matter, I am me and your sister-in-law is your sister-in-law. We will not interfere with each other."
"Haha, okay, sister-in-law, we welcome Kaiyun Investment to participate in today's C round of financing!" Liang Rubo didn't have any other ideas. Xia Zekai still has the largest number of shares in Yichuxing, but he has never used 'big money'
As a shareholder, he orders himself to make decisions, and he never even takes the initiative to interfere with the daily management and company operations of Jingcheng Yixing Technology Co., Ltd.
Naturally, Liang Rubo would not believe that Brother Xia was using a trick to let his sister-in-law hold another part of the equity, thereby achieving the goal of absolute control.
If he really wanted to, Liang Rubo felt that it was no big deal if he was willing to give up the position of general manager.
At this moment, Liang Tongshun, Song Jinpeng and the others' "surprise and shock" seemed to have just begun. Seeing that Liang Rubo respected Xia Zekai so much, they couldn't help but think too much.
At this time, even a fool knows that Jingtong Development Co., Ltd. is far from everything about Boss Xia. His identity is becoming more and more mysterious in the eyes of the four people.
Xia Zekai asked his wife to lead the four people invested by Kaiyun in.
She also asked her to bring Yatou and Tongtong in, leaving the two sisters behind to cause trouble.
Xia Zekai, Liang Rubo, and Zhang Yiming were the only two people left at the door. He said: "When the time comes, your sister-in-law will be responsible for bidding, and I will ask her to bid as high as possible. Later, I will take some of my shares and transfer them to her."
.”
Does this mean that you have found someone to take care of you?
Liang Rubo and Zhang Yiming looked at each other, thinking about this in their hearts.
Liang Rubo then said: "Brother Xia, you don't have to do this. Just do whatever you have to do. It's better to have the equity in our hands than in the hands of outsiders."
Xia Zekai smiled and said: "The Kaiyun investment account only has 100 million yuan at most, which may not be enough."
Hearing what he said, Liang Rubo and Zhang Yiming both felt inexplicably relieved.
Even if all of the 100 million shares were taken, it would actually not be much, and it would be insignificant to today’s overall financing situation.
They guessed that this money should have been transferred from Brother Xia to his sister-in-law.
But they didn't know that they actually guessed it right.
As time went by, Yixing’s original shareholders such as Sequoia Capital, Matrix Partners, Dashen Ventures, China Renaissance, Haina Asia, etc. all came over.
Individual investors Yu Shuping and Yang Bin also came over. Yu Shuping was busy greeting people upstairs, and Yang Bin also went there to help.
In addition to these people, there are also many powerful investors who have participated in financing rounds before but failed to achieve anything, and they are all here today.
Time is a good thing. After nearly a year of fermentation, these investors who had made no gains discovered what kind of big cake they had missed.
At this time, some people were extremely heartbroken. They never expected that by the time they participated in Yixing’s Series C financing again, it would already be a flying giant.
It occupies more than 50% of the country's driving service market and more than 60% of the Yitrip taxi market. These all illustrate the status of the "Yitrip" application in taxi-hailing and driving services, two practical fields related to people's livelihood.
It also represents its potentially huge influence on society.
But it is a pity that they completely missed it when it was still a fledgling. When they met again, it was already an adult Kunpeng, soaring ninety thousand miles!
How heroic!
I don’t know how much money it would cost to acquire its equity today.
For example, CEO Xiong of IDG, Kai-Fu Lee of Sinovation Ventures, Li Yuanzhu of Inno Angel Fund, Cao Guowei of Sina, and even Cao Yi of Source Code Capital, etc. These are all people who are determined to win today's equity, and they are fully prepared this time
With enough money, you are not afraid of high travel prices.
In their opinion, as long as there is a market price, it means they can still trade, and they still have a chance!
I’m just afraid that I won’t have the opportunity to participate in the financing round.
After receiving wave after wave of people, until after nine o'clock, no one came over. Liang Rubo said to Xia Zekai and Zhang Yiming: "Brother Xia, Yiming, let's go in first. The financing round will start at half past nine."
Already."
"Okay, don't wait any longer. If anyone comes later, let them ask the hotel lobby manager and go directly to our financing site. If they arrive late, don't complain about not giving them a chance." Xia Zekai said happily.
If you are late for an important occasion like today, you don't need to talk to them at all.
But what Xia Zekai didn't expect was that Alibaba Capital, which broke in midway, did not send anyone this time. It seemed that there was a big gap on Lao Ma's side!
Xia Zekai thought that if his wife had enough capital, it would be good to directly participate in Alibaba's delisting and re-listing operation.
In this way, Kaiyun Investment's reputation in the industry is even greater than the reputation premium generated after participating in the financing of "Yixing"!
But his wife was poor, and she only had the 100 million he transferred to her, so she couldn't get even one-tenth more.
It is obviously impossible to dream of reaching the sky in one step.
In this case, we can only do it step by step.
After the three people entered the venue through the elevator, the hall was bustling.
Most of those who came to participate in the C round of financing today are capital giants. After many rounds of screening, there are very few who are just trying to make money.
Some people who feel that their capital strength is not strong enough will not have the nerve to come here today. When the time comes, others will raise prices and they will remain silent. What does that mean?
Luo Xiyun, who had come in early, was holding Yatou and Tongtong and sitting on a chair on the side.
Tongtong's eyes kept glancing at the area where snacks and juices were placed. She thought about trying them in the past, but her mother disagreed, saying that eating too much sugary foods would easily turn your teeth black.
"Mom, you are also lying. I will never believe you again." Tongtong glared at Luo Xiyun, feeling that her heart was broken.
After hearing this, Wang Qiong laughed so hard that her stomach ached. She knelt down and said with a gentle smile: "Tongtong, do you remember Auntie? What do you want to eat? Tell Auntie and I will get it for you."
"Auntie, I want to drink that red juice." Tongtong knew the color distinction quite clearly.
Wang Qiong did what he said and went to get it immediately.
