Entertainment: I have been poor, but I have never been poor.

Chapter 144

"Let's get straight to it."

"How much financing are you going to ask for this time?"

"And what do you think Douyin's current valuation can reach?"

Su Ming said directly.

After knowing Zhang Erhuao's intentions and thoughts.

Then he doesn't want to waste time, but goes straight to the point.

How much financing and how much valuation are clearly stated, there is no need to negotiate slowly.

If both sides are interested.

It is true that this unnecessary time was not wasted.

And.

Su Ming was not afraid of being seen by Zhang Erhuan as his true thoughts.

Because he is indeed interested in Douyin Group and wants to win this project.

This.

He didn't mind being seen by Zhang Erpu.

Even if he saw it, it would not affect his decision.

Because of how much money to win the Douyin Group.

In Su Ming's heart, there has long been a scale.

Other factors will not affect his decision.

It doesn't matter if people will see their minds.

This directness.

Zhang Erhuan couldn't help but be a little stunned.

Because he really didn't expect Su Ming to be so direct.

A lot of business negotiations, but it takes a long time to contact before you start negotiating prices.

This financing.

It is also rare to ask the other party for a direct quotation in the first contact.

Because both sides do not understand each other now, how can they say the price that they are satisfied with.

Su Ming's behavior.

Zhang Erhuan was a little caught off guard.

"This time the financing was $300 million with a 10 percent stake."

"Because if Douyin wants to expand overseas business, the initial investment is essential."

"But please rest assured that the development of Douyin will soon let you see this investment, and it is definitely worth it."

Zhang Erhuan said again: "Therefore, I hope that Mr. Su can become the lead investor of this financing, and I sincerely invite you to join!" "

After Su Ming was so direct.

He is also "997" and also said the financing plan to the point.

Three hundred million dollars.

That's the financing goal he wants to achieve this time.

With this funding, there is no pressure to continue expanding the market.

To this.

Su Ming assessed it in his heart.

$300 million and 10 percent of the shares.

This is equivalent to valuing Douyin Group at three billion US dollars.

And this time last year.

Douyin Group's valuation is $500 million.

In other words, in about a year, it has increased to six times.

But this six-fold valuation will not be on the high side.

Su Ming did not think so, but agreed with this valuation

Because not to mention the valuation of hundreds of billions of dollars in a few years, only the financing of the year.

According to the words of normal historical development.

Douyin will raise a Series D financing next year.

And this time, the amount of financing reached one billion US dollars.

But the valuation of Douyin Group directly reached 11 billion US dollars.

That's more than three times the current three-billion-dollar valuation.

Other words.

Now invest $300 million.

In a year's time, it will be worth 1.1 billion dollars.

This rate of return is already considered a super high return, and it is difficult to find a better project.

So.

Zhang Erpu's offer was not excessive.

On the contrary, he is already very sincere.

It is also because he sees Su Ming's potential influence that he will offer this price.

If it's another investor.

That Zhang Erhuan is not a quotation of three billion dollars.

"Very reasonable."

"But ten percent of the shares is too little."

"I'm going to raise $450 million and get 15 percent of the shares."

Su Ming said directly: "At the same time, I don't want to lead the investment, but to have the full share of this financing, 450 million, I came out alone!" "

For Zhang Erpu's offer.

He didn't feel excessive at all, but he felt very reasonable.

However, he is not satisfied with the proportion of shares, but wants to get more shares.

Even willing to pay a greater price for it.

And $450 million, 15 percent of the shares.

In fact, the valuation has not changed.

It's just that the proportion of capital contribution has changed, and the proportion of shares has also changed.

And most importantly.

Douyin's financing this time.

Su Ming was ready to take it all, and he would not give any shares to others.

Even if there are a lot of venture capital investors who are watching.

Zhang Erpu: "..."

This condition surprised him a little.

Seriously.

Before coming here.

Zhang Erhuan did not plan to give up 15 percent of the shares.

Ten percent is the percentage of financing that he decides through the shareholders' meeting.

But what I didn't expect was.

As soon as Su Ming came, he directly demanded fifteen percent.

Moreover, he also wants a monopoly of 15% of the shares.

If you really agree.

Then Su Ming may become the largest shareholder other than Zhang Erpu.

This ratio is dangerous.

Zhang Erhuan couldn't help but hesitate.

And Su Ming did not speak again.

He gave Zhang Erhuan enough time to think about this condition.

"Yes."

"I will convince all shareholders."

"I am very welcome to Mr. Su to join the big family of Douyin!"

After a while.

Zhang Erhuan finally made a decision.

For the conditions offered by Su Ming, he also made further compromises.

The main thing is that he is well aware.

Su Ming's investment enterprises are all required to occupy high shares.

Projects with too few shares, he was never interested.

This is his investment habit all along, not against the Douyin Group.

And.

After Su Ming invested in several enterprises in a row.

Even if the proportion of shares is high, it has not interfered in the management of these enterprises.

Even if he owned half of the shares, he did not do so.

So.

This allowed Zhang Erhuan to make this decision.

It is considering that Su Ming will not interfere in the development of Douyin Group.

Even if you pay 15% of the shares, there will be no such risk.

Based on this, he can accept this financing condition.

"I also welcome Douyin Group to join Future Industry."

"After signing the preliminary agreement, 450 million will arrive soon!"

Su Ming also said with a smile.

He made a promise without forgetting to remind him.

Douyin Group.

This is just one of the projects under the Future Industry umbrella.

It is not Douyin Group that is the main body of the future industry.

The primary and secondary relationships are important.

Therefore, Su Ming will remind one point in particular.

After hearing this.

Zhang Erhuan was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted.

This made him also understand what Su Ming meant.

But he didn't care either.

Now the Dooyin Group.

Indeed, there is no way to compare with the future industry.

And most importantly.

Su Ming made a promise.

$450 million could arrive immediately.

This real money investment is the most real.

As for the primary and secondary relationship, it is only a trivial name.

Soon.

The two sides reached a unified offensive.

There is no objection to this financing.

Now wait for the legal departments of both parties to go through the process, and then the financing can be completed smoothly.

Originally.

Zhang Erhuan just hopes that Su Ming will lead this financing.

But what I didn't expect was that the latter directly ate all the financing.

Under financing of this magnitude.

This is an extremely rare situation.

Most of the financing is divided by multiple leading companies.

One family is rare.

But.

This time the financing.

It was originally because of Su Ming.

That is not too much to let him monopolize all the financing.

Most importantly, he can indeed bring extremely proof publicity to the Douyin Group.

And Su Ming is also very sincere.

After Zhang Erhuan agreed, he began to prepare the finances.

As soon as the contract is signed, $450 million can be received immediately.

This cheerfulness left other shareholders with nothing to say. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) ）

......

After sending Zhang Erhuan away.

Su Ming's mood was quite pleasant.

It's hard for him to be unhappy, because it's a real golden rooster.

According to the normal history of development.

Douyin Group's valuation will reach 10 billion US dollars next year.

This made Su Ming's $450 million worth $1.5 billion immediately.

More than 200% return.

In the following year, the valuation of Douyin Group can reach 22 billion US dollars, and its income will double again.

Valuation in the third year.

It will also rise to $75 billion because of a $4 billion financing.

By the fourth year of financing.

The valuation of Douyin Group will reach 100 billion US dollars.

Even, the highest valuation of Douyin Group will exceed 300 billion US dollars.

Even if there are some later impacts, which causes the valuation to plummet, it is close to 200 billion US dollars.

And by that time.

This up-and-coming star.

will become one of the giants that challenge penguins and beavers.

From the two poles of Internet traffic, gradually ready to become a three-legged situation.

Even at a valuation of $200 billion.

As long as Su Ming is in the financing behind Douyin.

Constantly follow the investment proportionally to ensure that the proportion of their shares will not be diluted.

That 15 percent of the shares is also worth $30 billion.

Even if you count all subsequent financing inputs.

This investment can also exceed the yield of 1,400 percent.

Even.

After Su Ming invested 450 million US dollars.

Subsequently, he did not invest another penny in the Douyin Group.

After multiple rounds of financing, his shares were constantly diluted.

But it still earns more than forty times the gains.

Other words.

Now fifteen percent shares.

After being diluted in multiple rounds, it can also be worth 20 billion dollars.

So.

For Su Ming.

This investment is indeed a very good deal.

A mere 450 million can be exchanged for shares worth $20 billion in the future.

And this value.

It simply won't take a few years.

Even, if Su Ming made a move at the peak valuation of Douyin, he could get more than 30 billion US dollars.

Face this benefit.

How could his mood be extremely unpleasant.

"Boss."

"Are you very optimistic about the Douyin Group?"

"How far do you think Douyin can develop?"

Shen Xinna asked curiously0...

With her understanding of Su Ming, she could feel that he attached great importance to the Douyin Group.

Therefore, she wanted to know how far he thought the Douyin Group could develop in the future.

"4G began to be widely adopted this year."

"And 4G networks can bring new vents to the Internet."

"Douyin Group is undoubtedly standing on this outlet, short videos will quickly become the entertainment of most people, and even cover men, women and children, the market is large enough."

Su Ming said directly: "What's more, the products of Douyin Group are not only short videos, but also have a competitive advantage in other fields. "

"It won't take a few years."

"Douyin Group is enough to compete with penguins and beavers, as well as Qiandu, and break the monopoly of the three giants of the Internet."

"At that time, the number of users and revenue of Douyin Group will gradually approach Penguin, but the product is not enough for Penguin to be more comprehensive!"

When it comes to the Douyin Group.

The evaluation given by Su Ming is extremely high.

Even, he directly said to what extent the Douyin Group could go.

Others would think this possibility was a fantasy, but he knew it would happen.

Douyin is the same as Pingxi.

The birth of both is to open up a new track.

Let the original giants only watch its development, but they have no ability to intervene at all.

Penguins watch the douyin.

It's like a tanuki watching the sunset.

If you want to stop it, or take it back, there is no way.

In fact.

It won't take a few years.

The total revenue of Douyin Group will exceed 500 billion.

This is a Big Mac, and a Big Mac that is rising fast.

Shen Xinna: "Shhh!! "

Su Ming's prediction of Douyin Group.

I couldn't help but make her gasp, feeling incredible.

Can challenge giants such as penguins and beavers to become the fourth giant of the Dragon Kingdom.

This made her feel too exaggerated.

But.

For Su Ming's prejudgment.

Shen Xinna never doubted it, because he really didn't miss it.

But it is because she believes that she feels particularly incredible.

Giants such as penguins and beavers are too powerful.

For so many years no business can challenge their position on the Internet.

And the Douyin Group can do just that.

It's hard to imagine that.

Even.

If it weren't for Shen Xinna.

In other words, when other people heard this, they would think that Su Ming was dreaming.

How can this kind of thing be achieved?

Only Shen Xinna would believe this sentence without hesitation.

But.

When Su Ming mentioned 4G.

It made her feel that this possibility was getting bigger and bigger.

After all.

Widespread adoption of 4G.

It is also certain that it has brought about a big change.

Let many people's experience of mobile phones become different from before.

Today's mobile phones are less and less dependent on WiFi, and even when you are outside, you can have a very pleasant experience.

It is also based on this.

Let the users of smartphones gradually expand.

When there is no 4G.

Some middle-aged and elderly users have a very limited experience with mobile phones.

But after 4G.

So that these middle-aged and elderly users can also have a good experience.

For example, brushing short videos has become a hobby of many middle-aged 1.5-year users.

That's really the latest outlet.

The short video platform is also the biggest outlet brought by 4G networks.

Thereinto.

Douyin Group is undoubtedly one of the best.

Therefore, it can develop quickly with short videos.

And it is not for nothing that it has been favored by many venture capitalists.

That Su Ming had this judgment.

In Shen Xinna's opinion, it is a very reasonable prediction, not a wild guess without a foundation.

"Let the magnesium group in."

"I'll talk to them by the way today."

Su Ming said directly: "Just let them arrange for someone to come in, and the others are waiting for the results outside!" "

For business negotiations.

He really doesn't like a large group of people negotiating together.

Especially if you intend to raise funds, it is better to negotiate alone.

Too many people.

If you say a word to me, you will waste a lot of time.

It is better to negotiate one-on-one, discuss the results, and then inform the others.

This is more efficient.

"Yes."

"I'm going out to arrange it now!"

Shen Xinna answered immediately.

Immediately afterwards, she went out to arrange this matter.

For magnesium masses.

Su Ming was also quite interested.

Because magnesium masses also develop quickly.

Moreover, it will soon become an APP that many young people cannot do without, changing the delivery method of takeaway.

Although, the company has many bad points, and many people can't help but complain.

But it has to be said.

From the investment side.

Magnesium is indeed a good company to invest in.

Because the return on investing in magnesium is also ideal.

So.

If appropriate.

Su Ming will also want to win this project.

Now it depends on the person in charge of the magnesium group, what kind of price code will be offered.

If appropriate.

Then he doesn't mind taking this company with a future market value of more than two trillion yuan.
