Chapter 293 Cast a loneliness

  Xia Jingxing heard this familiar name, she moved in her heart, still pretending to be calm, and asked calmly: "What is he looking for you for?"

  "He wants to acquire Youyoumi!"

   Rao Lei said these words faintly, and at the same time, his eyes turned to Xia Jingxing, paying attention to the changes in his expression.

  Xia Jingxing’s expression reaction was dull, because this was the final destination of Youyoumi in his previous life, and now Chen Yizhou came to approach the door on behalf of Thousand Oaks Group, and he was not surprised at all.

  Noting that Xia Jingxing did not say a word, Liu Jian, who was sitting next to Rao Lei, interjected: “He expressed his willingness to give us five million dollars in cash to acquire us wholly.”

  Kristina chuckled, “Isn’t that the same as the valuation that Youyoumi received in the angel round a year ago?

  One year has passed, and the company’s valuation has not risen by one dollar? That Mr. Chen really knows how to make a price. "

  Xia Jingxing did not speak, he knew the result of this investment before. It was purely a lonely investment and was destined to not make a lot of money.

  Liu Jian nodded, "Yes, we also think this offer is very unreasonable, it is too small.

  However, Chen Yizhou also said that if he agrees to exchange shares, he is willing to make some concessions on valuation.

  Furthermore, this is only the first round of contact, and it is far from the final reserve price. "

  Kristina folded her arms, looked at Liu Jian and Rao Lei meaningfully, and said with a smile: “Facebook, as a strategic investment shareholder of Youyoumi, has always been very supportive of them.

  If you have any thoughts, you can tell them directly.

  If the idea is reasonable, we will definitely support it. "

  Rao Lei waved his hand, "Miss Christina, you have misunderstood.

  We have no other ideas, and we are not tempted by the conditions set by Thousand Oaks Group.

  We thought, we should manage Youyoumi well.

  It's just that the domestic SNS website started at about the same time.

  It’s hard to say, these entrepreneurs are almost all imitators and followers of Diaoyou.com.

  So, everyone does not have much innovation in functions and products, and they are almost evenly matched in terms of funds and talents.

  Now that Youyoumi has developed into this way, some of them are not in line with our expectations, and they have also failed the trust of shareholders.

  We choose to tell you this news, mainly because we don’t want to hide anything. We hope that we can communicate and trust each other fully. "

  The foreign girl thought that the two wanted to sell the company, but unexpectedly it was not.

  Five million dollars to sell the company, the two shareholders, Facebook and Axel, are undoubtedly the biggest losers. They invested one million dollars together, and finally got back one million dollars.

  I didn't make a penny, and wasted a year in vain.

  The two founders are not the same. If the employee shareholding is not counted, they can share almost four million US dollars.

  Making a lot of money is hard to talk about, but it can also be called the biggest gainer from selling the company.

  The foreign girl stopped talking and looked at Xia Jingxing, who had been silent.

   Liu Jian and Rao Lei also looked at the real principals.

  Xia Jingxing understood. The two of them were probably worried that they were dissatisfied with Youyoumi’s development speed, and threw an acquisition to test their reaction.

   So he smiled and said: "The reason why venture capital should add the word "risk" in front of investment is because the risk of investment is very high.

  Where are there absolutely capital-guaranteed and absolutely profitable projects?

  Two brothers, don’t put too much pressure.

  Have you ever intervened in your affairs when you read Facebook to invest in you this year? Does it give you any pressure?

  Not all!

  Investing in you will naturally give you absolute trust.

  You only need to manage the website well, and don’t worry too much about the rest.

  I am not a person who only values ​​short-term benefits and has no sense of risk.

  Youyoumi now has nearly one million users and is considered to be the largest SNS website in China. The development cannot be described as particularly good, but it is not bad.

  Entrepreneurship is a rally race, and ultimately it has to look at the future.

  We have enough patience to wait for Youyoumi to create better results. "

  Listening to what Xia Jingxing said, Rao Lei and Liu Jian seemed to have taken a reassurance, and they felt much more at ease.

  They talked about Thousand Oaks Group's door-to-door talk about the acquisition, and they really wanted to use this to test Xia Jingxing's reaction.

  To be honest, Youyoumi's development is not particularly ideal. They are very worried that shareholders such as Facebook and Axel will lose patience and give up Youyoumi.

  But Xia Jingxing looked completely disregarded, which made them gratified and sad.

  They can be regarded as a step-by-step testimony of how Facebook has grown from scratch and gradually grows stronger.

  Compared with Facebook, which is now valued at billions of dollars and top venture capitalists are looking for investment, Youyoumi’s development is indeed somewhat ineffective.

However, both of them are in their thirties. They are very mature. After talking about work, and knowing that Xia Jingxing has little opinion on Youyoumi's development, he stopped talking and talked about it. gossip.

  Everyone is a friend, and Xia Jingxing didn’t put on any airs, and chatted with them very casually.

  Rao Lei was taken aback when he heard that Christina was spending the year at Xia Jingxing’s family, and then he reacted, pointing to Xia Jingxing, and laughed loudly:

   "It seems that Jingxing, you are proud of your career and love scene! Congratulations, congratulations, when will I have a wedding drink?"

  Xia Jingxing had no choice but to smile and said, "This is not in a hurry. You will be notified when the time comes. I will definitely have enough wine."

  Rao Lei nodded, "Okay, then I can wait."

  Liu Jian also hurriedly raised his wine glass and congratulated him: "Jingxing, you and Miss Christina, you can be regarded as talented women, join forces! Come, toast you a glass."

   "Haha, I'm sorry."

  Xia Jingxing and Yang Niu also raised their glasses and clinked with Liu Jian.

  …………

  …………

  The next day.

  Led by Liu Jian and Rao Lei, the two went to the Youyoumi company and prepared to visit.

  The company is small, with only 20 or 30 employees.

  These employees have just returned from vacation and have not yet entered the working state.

   Seeing two bosses entering the company with a young man and a red-haired foreign girl, they instantly became interested.

  Young people want to go online, and many people recognize this as the company’s shareholder and the founder of Facebook.

  Rao Lei called the employees together and introduced Xia Jingxing and Christina grandly.

  The employees are very excited. They have long heard that the company has a great shareholder, and I finally saw it this time.

  Xia Jingxing and Yang Niu are almost younger than the employees present, but they control a multi-billion-dollar Internet company.

  In their eyes, the two started from scratch and dropped out of school to start a business. This is so legendary that they whispered and discussed.

  After a brief visit to Youyoumi, Rao Lei also asked Xia Jingxing to speak to the employees and cheer.

  Xia Jingxing declined, so she had to say a few words.

  Each of these young employees was listening carefully, and some took out their phones to take pictures.

  2004 is the first year of mobile phone photography, in this year a megapixel mobile phone was born.

  Many young people follow the trend and buy mobile phones with camera functions.

   After a violent photo shoot, the photos of Xia Jingxing and Yang Niu were uploaded to Youyoumi’s social networking site by these employees.

  Youyoumi also has image upload related functions, which are similar to foreign social network products.

  After the visit, Xia Jingxing and Yang Niu declined Rao Lei’s stay and came to the airport, ready to return to the United States.

  At this time, Xia Jingxing received a call from Liu Hai.

   "Jingxing, have you returned to the United States?"

  "At the airport, preparing to board the plane."

  "May need to change the sign. Someone wants to see you."

  ……

  Hung up the phone, Xia Jingxing shrugged at the foreign girl, spreading her hands, "I can't leave again, or else, you go back to the United States first?"
