After the game against the Lakers, there was two days of rest.
The young senior sister is rarely busy at home these days. Several projects of Han Tang Feng Capital, which was previously registered, have been initially completed.
O, this is a company with only two people, which can be said to be very inconspicuous. Their main achievement is the development of contact input software.
This was one of the companies on the investment list that Lian Dao gave to his junior sister at that time.
This company was very inconspicuous. At that time, Lian Dao only invested US$500,000 and acquired 45% of the shares. The reason why he chose this company was because Lian Dao knew that Facebook would acquire it in February 2010.
This company's purpose is to increase Facebook's viral advertising.
In addition, there are other companies that Lian Dao invested through rebirth memory. Lian Dao does not intend to hold the shares of these companies for a long time. Once a large company acquires them, Lian Dao will choose to sell them.
At present, the shares he holds for a long time are 10% of Facebook shares drawn from the system (including 5% non-dilutable shares).
In addition, there is another company that Lian Dao is optimistic about: Airbnb. Its Chinese name is: Airbnb. It was founded in 2008 and is not particularly famous yet. Currently, this company is particularly popular in the New York rental market. Most importantly, it is
The reason is the quality of their service.
Their method of expanding customers may not seem like a big deal in the future, but today in 2010, it is very novel. They spent $5,000 to rent a high-end camera and went door-to-door to take free photos of many tenants' houses in New York.
As a result, the number of bookings in New York quickly increased two or three times, and Airbnb's local revenue doubled by the end of the month. This approach was later copied to Paris, London, Miami and other places.
At present, their scale is not very large, and there are not many contracted photographers under Airbnb. But in the future, this company will grow into a unicorn in the home rental and sales in the United States.
In 2022, Airbnb's market value will be as high as $47 billion.
At present, they are also releasing news of Series A financing on a small scale, with the purpose of expanding their scale. However, this company, which is not yet large-scale, attracted the attention of Sequoia Capital after sending out financing information.
Sequoia Capital can be said to be one of the giants in the investment community. Many companies in China now and in the future have the shadow of Sequoia Capital, such as Jingxi, Alibaba, Ant, Jingxi Finance, Toutiao, shared bicycles, Hungry Takeaway, Didi
drop……
Basically, China's Internet companies have the shadow of Sequoia Capital behind them.
However, the current layout of Sequoia Capital in China is not as terrifying as that of later generations. Lian Dao is bound to get a share of it, such as Sina, Ant, including Hungry Takeout, as well as the most popular live broadcast platform in later generations, and short-format
Video platforms, etc.
The amount of Airbnb's Series A financing is not very large, US$7.8 million, but it has attracted many large capital companies.
Originally, Hantang Capital did not have the strength to enter this kind of financing, but the young senior sister got on this boat through Guo Nianguo's relationship.
There is also the fact that Sequoia Capital actually wants Hantang Capital to join in. This also makes Lian Dao curious. You must know that these big capitalists will never give cake mix to others for no reason. The key is to be in the same industry.
It wasn't until Airbnb entered the Chinese market that Lian Dao truly understood the reason. At that time, Lian Dao discovered that although he was a reborn person, he was still a bit small compared to these big capitalists.
It is quite scary to judge the development of a company in the next ten to fifteen years.
…
The little senior sister was busy with the company's affairs. After Lian Dao's training, in order to reward the little senior sister who worked hard to make money, she personally made the little senior sister's favorite Bazhen cake. In addition, Master Lian also showed off his cooking skills by making
A table full of dishes.
Guo Yuwei smelled the aroma of the food as soon as she got home. After putting down her bag, she casually kicked off her high heels and trotted to the dining table with her bare feet. She closed her eyes and sniffed the aroma of the food intoxicated.
Without washing my hands, I just picked up a piece of crispy chicken and put it in my mouth, feeling full of happiness.
At this time, Lian Dao was serving dishes from the kitchen and happened to see the young senior sister's unkempt appearance.
"I didn't wash my hands first. How about it? I prepared it specially for you. Is it delicious?" Lian Dao's face was full of doting expression.
The young senior sister didn't reply, she just nodded vigorously, and then kept stuffing food into her mouth. Her charming face was bulging with food at this time. The strong woman who was so cool outside, now it's time to
Just like a foodie girl.
Lian Dao saw the young senior sister busy with the food, so she put down the food in her hands and poured him a glass of juice.
"Slow down, no one is going to rob you." Lian Dao helplessly looked at the little senior sister who had completely turned into a foodie.
"Because...it's been a long time...you've cooked for me." The young senior sister puffed out her cheeks and spoke inarticulately.
After hearing this, Lian Dao reacted for a while before realizing what Guo Yuwei meant. It turned out that she was saying that she hadn't cooked for her in a long time.
This is a bit embarrassing. Although he is busy, he still has time to cook a meal, but he is too lazy to do it.
Lian Dao also knew that he was lazy, but he didn't want to admit it.
In order to cover up his embarrassment, Lian Dao also joined the food battle.
After enjoying the feast happily, the nanny cleared the table and Lian Dao brought out some cut fruits.
The little senior sister couldn't eat any more. Lian Dao was eating the fruit while looking at the little senior sister's appearance, feeling both funny and warm.
The little senior sister was lying on the sofa without any image, touching her slightly protruding belly. Don't get me wrong, she is not pregnant, she just simply ate too much.
"Oh, it's all your fault, you have to spend time losing weight again!" The little senior sister leaned her head against Lian Dao and said while holding her mouth.
Lian Dao's face was full of question marks at this time.
Why didn't you think so when you ate it just now?
Now that I was full, I started to complain about the cook. I really put down my bowl and scolded the cook.
"Why don't you want to lose weight when you eat? You are duplicitous, hehe, woman!"
When the young senior sister saw Lian Dao's angry look, she felt very cute and couldn't help but laugh.
"Okay, I'm kidding you, I'll give you a reward!" the young senior sister said and kissed Lian Dao on the face.
Lian Dao turned his head and kissed him directly.
After a passionate kiss, Lian Dao was about to carry the little senior sister to the room.
"No, I just finished eating."
"It's okay, I just want to do some exercise after dinner. Aren't you afraid of gaining weight?"
Could this also help me lose weight? This touched upon the little senior sister’s knowledge blind spot, and she immediately realized that Lian Dao was just talking nonsense.
But now it's too late, the young senior sister has become a cabbage for foreign gangs...
…
During the two days when the Knicks were resting, something happened to the Wizards. They put their star player Gilbert Arenas on the shelf and were eager to seek a trade. The reason why they were so anxious was because before a game started.
, Arenas drew his gun to celebrate when he came on the court.
Because of the previous Gungate incident, NBA executives have been under a lot of pressure and suppressed the matter. Now Arenas dares to commit crimes against the trend.
This made Stern completely angry. In the end, NBA Commissioner David Stern fined Arenas and Crittenton. The two Wizards players will be suspended until the end of the season. This includes Arenas.
For the games he missed before the penalty was imposed, he was suspended for a total of 50 games that season; Crittenton was suspended for 38 games. The two paid a total of 88 game suspensions for this farce.
Crittenton paid a heavy price for his irrationality. Crittenton's talent was not top-notch. Because of this pistol scandal, no team is willing to accept a locker room cancer. Oh no, it should be
It's said to be a time bomb in the locker room.
The Wizards' management also has a huge headache. They want to trade Arenas out, but no one in the league is a fool. Who would trade a thorny head who can't even hit the ball this season? So the Wizards have repeatedly
The offers were all rejected by the management of other teams.
They also made an offer to the Knicks, hoping to exchange Gallinari or Holiday for Arenas. They were willing to accept Eddy Curry's bad contract, but the deal was rejected by the Knicks' management.
The Knicks have just gotten rid of the reputation of being a concentration camp for pricks, the environment in the locker room has just improved this season, and the Knicks are very hopeful of entering the playoffs this season. At this time, the pricks who can't even hit the ball are traded. The Knicks'
Although the front office is not very smart, at least general manager Donnie Walsh is not as stupid as Isaiah Thomas.
A potential show with good future talent and prospects is replaced by a locker room cancer with declining scoring ability and constant injuries. I have to say that the Wizards are a bit whimsical. Even if they can give away Eddy Curry's bad contract, they are not willing to do so.
In fact, the Knicks are indeed anxious to sell Eddy Curry's junk contract, but other teams are not fools. No team is willing to spend more than 10 million to buy a mascot to serve as a water fountain keeper.
At the end of this season, the Knicks have plans to buy out Eddy Curry's contract in order to strengthen him for the 2010-2011 season.
