Chapter 104 It’s all up to the boss to be bad
It’s raining in Shencheng, and it’s cloudy again.
This weather is like Li Song’s mood.
He finally calmed down his emotions. Although he was still gloomy, he had to accept more realistic problems.
First, the direction of changes in the industry development, and second, the company''s financing needs to be discussed in the long run.
In addition to his own perception, the wife''s transfer of her two sons to Shencheng is also an important factor.
After all, the Chinese New Year is coming soon.
Li Song realized that his wife''s intention to ease the family atmosphere, so he also accepted the situation.
The two met in Xiangjiang and their relationship has been very good. This time, they were really affected by an unexpected impact. They have both industry problems and financing setbacks. In addition, the initiator was so arrogant that he wanted to get money from today''s capital, which made work and life become messy again.
Li Song took his two sons to browse the zoo and museum in Shencheng, while clarifying his own ideas and shelved Zhenai.com''s financing actions for the time being.
No matter what, the industry has changed, investors really need to observe again, and Zhenai.com must also give new trends.
However, his emotions eased and he did not intend to give up obstruction.
On the evening of January 8, Li Song gave a sincere apology while talking to his wife about the children''s education, which should not interfere with the normal operation of capital today.
Immediately, he expressed his concerns.
"I do not understand."
"Why is Capital today interested in a website like Bai Xiaosheng?"
“I don’t think it has investment value.”
Xu Xin heard the topic turn around like this, glanced at her husband, not wanting to make the easing atmosphere froze again, and said with a smile: "Oh, have you changed your strategy?"
Those who don’t engage in martial arts, those who change their literature?
Have you judged Bai Xiaosheng’s investment?
"I really don''t understand." Li Song said seriously, "Bai Xiaosheng has a small website that has gained some users through two emergencies. Can it still encounter such a good thing later? According to the process, if the investment intention is to be killed, it will be killed."
Xu Xin pondered about what kind of communication method to adopt.
Li Song looked at his wife and said, "It''s not that I had a conflict with him, but it would make it difficult for you to die immediately, right?"
Xu Xin actually didn''t want to talk about this topic, so she said helplessly: "Don''t worry about me. You can''t just pretend that you don''t know about this company now?"
"When people eat grains and grains, they have seven emotions and six desires. Oh, Xu Xin, do you know who did the problems our company is facing now, right?" Li Song tried not to express it excitedly.
"I want me to say that this is a matter of time sooner or later, it is better to be early." Xu Xin said objectively, "No Yu Xing, but Li Xing and Zhou Xing, this is a reminder for your company. Are there any problems in the industry? Are there any problems in the company? Are there any problems in the thinking? If you can figure out these out, then I..."
Li Song''s heartbeat was beat faster and said, "Then do you vote?"
Xu Xin just said that she was about to take it back in time: "... Then I wish you a blessing, hoping to see you ring the bell."
Li Song frowned and emphasized his attitude: "It can be Li Xing, Zhou Xing, but it can''t be Yu Xing!"
Xu Xin spread her hands and has confirmed that the company''s decisions will not be affected by irrelevant factors.
"Okay, Mr. Xu." Li Song understood what she meant and changed his name, "Then, as the chairman of Zhenai.com, I also want to remind you here that the company confirms suing Bai Xiaosheng!"
This is not an irrelevant factor!
Xu Xin frowned: "What do you want to do?"
"The company wants to save its reputation!" Li Song raised his voice and said, "I don''t want you to pay that unjustly!"
He said another sentence: "I will also sue Yu Xing, the company he sold to me for fake data!"
Xu Xin did not frown and asked, "Is there any conclusive evidence?"
"Whether it is our company or his previous team, the business that is moving towards society is not going smoothly. We have recovered the illegal gains of the two market managers who were originally responsible for the Beijing market." Li Song said seriously, "Those two are college students. When the company intimidated, they said that the reimbursement problem in Beijing that was higher than other cities was approved by Yu Xing."
"He knows it, but pretends not to know it!"
"And, it was after those two people were transferred from the capital that the social market in the capital had developed achievements!"
"Yu Xing is adding data to the company, forging the value of the company!"
"We must hold him legally responsible!"
Li Song warned: "Mr. Xu, don''t blame me for not reminding you."
Xu Xin asked patiently: "Is there a contract for the reimbursement issue you mentioned?"
Li Song shook his head: "There is no contract, they confirmed it on the phone."
Xu Xin nodded and asked again: "Okay, is there any call recording?"
Li Song shook his head again and protested: "Who is fine to do this recording?"
"How come it is proved that it was not those two people who tried to shirk responsibility? Why didn''t it work because of the two mediocre talents?" Xu Xin said this and asked again, "You said Yu Xing''s data was mixed with water, and his hands and feet were clean?"
Li Song heard this: "What? As long as he is clean, you can vote, right? Who has criticized Zhenai.com for the problem?"
Xu Xin sighed without a positive answer: "If you want to sue, you can sue it, but I also need to remind you that NetEase is staring at this market. If you end up burning your body, then take care of your children at home."
NetEase not only began to promote its NetEase dating, but more importantly, its own media power is very strong.
A website that exposed industry problems was sued. Will this be a weapon to expand the market?
It may not necessarily cause bleeding, but NetEase will definitely not mind giving it a try.
Li Song was shocked and frowned.
"Our investment depends on the performance of the core team. Over the years, I feel that people are really different." Xu Xin said with some emotion, "Some people are trapped in the 100-point land in front of me, while others can look at the entire industry."
"When I met Ding Lei and Liu Qiangdong, they were not famous people, but they were surprising."
Li Song was silent for a while: "What do you mean is, do you have to vote for him?"
"I''m not sure yet, but I''m going to vote for him because he''s worthy of his vote. On the contrary, it''s because he''s not worthy of his vote. It won''t have anything to do with what you and me said." Xu Xin smiled and said, "Mr. Li, don''t say these words about you. Is it just that Ma Yi has said so many things over the past few years that will prevent me from investing in JD."
Ma Yi is a leader in the e-commerce field. He naturally talked about domestic companies and was not optimistic about JD.com, which is heavily influential. With his status and achievements, his words are often regarded as the norm by many people.
Li Song was also shocked by this kind of heroism for a moment and stared at his wife in a daze.
Xu Xin just smiled.
"Okay." Li Song let out a sigh and shook his head, "Sometimes, I do ignore your...decision and firmness because of our relationship. Alas, this is Xu Xin of today''s capital."
He said with some frustration: "I will still sue Yu Xing."
Xu Xin couldn''t laugh and cry: "Is all the words just now said in vain?"
"Either sue Bai Xiaosheng or sue him for the company he sold to us, there is a problem." Li Song said unwillingly, "I will ask someone to carefully screen the previous data of Guiai.com. Is this reasonable?"
Xu Xin shrugged: "Then it will be up to you."
Li Song looked at his wife and said helplessly: "You always said you were not sure whether to invest or not, but I feel that you are already inclined to invest. You said before that our company is not profitable enough. Bai Xiaosheng''s company has been in such a short time, do you think it is profitable enough?"
"What does this mean..." Xu Xin was silent for a moment and said tactfully, "Socialism is a very good concept, a concept that can be understood by both China and foreign countries. Workplace socialism is also a good story. The Nasdaq in the United States will definitely accept a special version of LinkedIn."
LinkedIn is a workplace social platform in the United States, and it is said that it is not far from being listed. Xu Xin sighed, and still felt that it was better to be more straightforward: "You are not making enough money, it is because you are not making enough money for us."
Li Song understood the meaning in his words: "It''s funny, Zhenai.com must be listed first than Bai Xiaosheng!"
Xu Xin encouraged, "Well, I hope too."
Li Song always feels that his wife is perfunctory. He is a doctor of finance, and he is in Bear Stearns, and works in Morgan Stanley. He started his business twice. He has been around for more than ten years, but he is still not as good as a freshman medical student?
He suddenly stood up: "If I don''t ring the bell first, my surname will be his!"
Xu Xin felt that there was no need to be annoyed.
She pondered over and over again: "You sit down, I may not necessarily vote for him."
Li Song shook his head: "I won''t sit anymore, I''m upset!"
Xu Xin looked at her husband''s figure downstairs and felt that she had done Bai Xiaosheng a favor.
Before the shareholder was accepted, the lawsuit was dismissed.
As for the possibility of litigation related to Guiai.com, maybe there is still a step forward.
…
On January 9, at 3 pm, Yu Xing took advantage of the work he was working and walked to the conference room to call Liu Wanying, who was already in Xiangjiang.
"Xiaoying, Xiaoying, how are you doing?"
Liu Wanying''s reply was very calm: "This week, the media in Xiangjiang will first see the news at the latest next week."
Yu Xing stretched out his voice: "It means..."
"It means that the time has come to test the toxicity of the mountain." Liu Wanying answered this way and asked again, "How is your financing there?"
"We will go up tomorrow to meet Today Capital and discuss specific issues such as financing amount." Yu Xing thought, "I don''t know what the progress of this process is, but Today Capital must be interested. This is a good start."
Liu Wanying thought about Bai Xiaosheng''s route to take advantage of today''s capital, but she still felt it was both incredible and ridiculous.
She sighed, "You are also the touchstone of their relationship with each other."
"I just read my emails you sent me before, which are the information you compiled by Today Capital and Xu Xin." Yu Xing said.
Liu Wanying waited for two seconds: "What''s the matter?"
Yu Xingheran: "It looks good."
He just saw Tudou.com, a capital invested in today''s capital, and this name reminded him of a very famous thing.
When Tudou.com was very popular, it planned to go public in the United States, but it was forced to postpone the property lawsuit between the founder and his ex-wife. It was first listed by Youku.com just the next month, making the latter the first stock of a video website.
Later, Tudou.com had to merge with Youku and then disappeared into the wave of the times.
This kind of gossip, this kind of topic...
Tsk…
I just don’t know if Bai Xiaosheng took the lead in breaking the matter, would it hurt Capital’s investment in Tudou.com today.
Yu Xing thought more about it for a while, the marriage of a famous founder in China caused problems in the company... Who else is there? Dangdang? Go to the market? Real Kung Fu?
But Tudou.com is the most famous because of such a thing. Some investors jokingly claim that they want to add "Toudou Terms" to the investment agreement, requiring the founders of the invested company to get married or divorced with the consent of the board of directors, especially the preferred shareholders.
"Hey? Hey? Wake up!" Liu Wanying was a little used to Yu Xing''s trance on the phone. She waited for a while and didn''t hear any movement before she shouted.
"Xiaoying, your touchstone is very good." Yu Xing came back to his senses, "Bai Xiaosheng strives to act as a touchstone for more people''s feelings."
Liu Wanying said seriously: "At the end of time, someone will be beaten with a bag from behind you."
"It''s not that hateful, we''re just a news platform." Yu Xing smiled and said, "Oh yes, why did we make a request with Today''s Capital? I''m a little hesitant, the shares sold in the Series A financing."
Liu Wanying did not give specific suggestions, but only reminded: "Boss Yu, Bai Xiaosheng is not a carefree person. Your current website mechanism is already very clear. If others think this set is feasible, it can be copied, so you need to use money to race against time and to expand your advantage."
"Anyway, the company is A/B shares. As long as your control is stable, I have to say that as long as the funds can come in, more and less shares will be secondary."
"The website is developing rapidly, and it depends entirely on capital."
"This is how financing is. Equity must be sold. You cannot lose the big picture because of small things, and don''t give up the opportunity to develop."
She roughly understands the kind of care that she takes out equity, and many entrepreneurial teams have this problem.
"Okay, I''m worthy of being a consultant to our company." Yu Xing didn''t argue, but he still reminded him that the website is not resting on his mind.
The two talked about shorting again, and then hung up the phone.
Yu Xing put his mobile phone on the desk, considering Xiangjiang''s actions, and according to Liu Wanying''s design, the funds bought put options on the Nasdaq. Xiangjiang media first released the news to attract cruising funds, and then the US local government launched.
Ideally this is the case, it depends on the effect at the execution level.
If this short selling goes well...
Yu Xing suddenly thought of those former bosses and had a deep thought that I should make some money back.
Dongdongdongdongdong, the office door was knocked.
Second-in-command Lu Haiying walked in, holding the contact information with the investment institution.
She contacted well-known venture capital as much as possible, but...most of them were on holiday, and the rest were not interested.
"Is it a holiday so early?" Yu Xing was surprised.
"I don''t know if I declined, but that''s how they replied." Lu Haiying was quite helpless.
Yu Xing said "um" and fell into thinking. After a moment, he said, "Don''t worry, let''s talk about it tomorrow when I see Xu Xin. Well, I know there is a very famous investor, Shen Nanpeng from Sequoia."
Lu Haiying nodded and reminded: "He used to be from Ctrip...so, I didn''t try to contact me."
Coincidentally, he is not only the co-founder of Ctrip, but also related to Focus Media.
If there is any movement in Xiangjiang, Shen Nanpeng will resume work even if it is holiday.
"Well, don''t be afraid. We even contacted Xu Xin. Are you still afraid of Shen Nanpeng, who came from the city?" Yu Xing said seriously, "Liu Wanying just taught me something, and I think it makes sense."
Lu Haiying listened attentively.
Yu Xing sighed: "The website develops rapidly, and it depends entirely on the boss''s badness."
Lu Haiying felt that her senior brother had been slandered, but she was not sure if there was something going on behind her back, so she could only remain silent.
Yu Xing explained: "This is a general term. It is the core leadership of the company and must have the responsibility to not be afraid of wind and rain."
Lu Haiying understood, she was indeed slandered.
Bai Xiaosheng is not bad, Bai Xiaosheng is just a porter of industry news, that''s it.
