At noon, Ford Brook came to YouTube.

The YouTube company's eo is called Martin Holmes, British, graduated from Cambridge University, in his thirties.

Ford Brook said straightforwardly: "Mr. Holmes, you must know what I'm here for. I wonder if YouTube is willing to accept financing?"

"Mr. Ford Brook, I'm really sorry, YouTube has no financing plan for the time being!" Martin Holmes said loudly.

Ford Brook frowned. "Have your company raised capital before?"

Martin Holmes smiled and said: "Yes, when the company started its business, 6 overseas venture capital institutions had invested in YouTube!"

When Ford Brook heard this, he sniffed, secretly saying a pity.

"Mr. Holmes, Sequoia Capital intends to invest 200 million U.S. dollars in YouTube. Do you think about it?"

"US$400 million?" Martin Holmes asked, "Oh, how many shares do Sequoia Capital plan to own?"

Ford Brook was silent for a while before he replied, "10%!"

"Well, that means that Sequoia Capital’s valuation for YouTube is $4 billion." Martin Holmes laughed. "Mr. Ford Brook, your Sequoia Capital’s offer seems a bit low. KPCB Venture Capital, the United States. The quotation given to us was 5 billion U.S. dollars, and the quotation IDG gave us was 5.5 billion U.S. dollars..."

Ford Brooke smiled bitterly when he heard the words. Sequoia Capital has basically started to go downhill since it got on the bar with Henry. Many investments have failed and a lot of money has been lost. Otherwise, Sequoia Capital, which has always been generous, would not be so tight. It is not easy for Sequoia Capital to come up with 400 million US dollars.

Since other venture capital firms with higher valuations failed, Ford Brook didn't expect it, so he immediately bid farewell to Martin Holmes.

"Go to LinkedIn!" After Ford Brook left YouTube, he told the driver.

...

"Sorry, Mr. Ford Brook, we at LinkedIn don't need financing!"

"Sorry, Mr. Ford Brook, we on TripAdvisor do not need financing!"

After being rejected one after another, Ford Brook was a little confused!

After 10 o'clock in the evening, Ford Brook returned home exhausted. First he took a cold shower and then lay on the bed. He couldn't help but recall what happened today...

The four websites actually don't need financing, and what makes him even more shocked is that these four companies actually received huge investment from overseas venture capital at the beginning of their business. How could it be such a coincidence? !

Ford Brook was puzzled. Startled marriage

Will these four companies be controlled by one company behind the scenes?

Ford Brook was also taken aback by his bold speculation. Who is so awesome, can come up with so many good ideas, and still have a lot of money to support?

No, there is someone! ! !

Ford Brook suddenly thought of a man Henry Williams!

"Could it be him?" Ford Brooke muttered to himself~lightnovelpub.net~ This night, Ford Brooke had insomnia, and he was thinking about whether the four websites could be Henry William. Behind the scenes...

The next morning, Ford Brook got up with dark circles under his eyes.

He decided to carefully investigate the predecessors of the four website companies!

Two days later, Ford Brook suddenly discovered a problem. These four companies were acquired by overseas companies and then changed their company names!

"Well... this is suspicious!" Ford Brook murmured as he touched his chin, his eyes flashed with a gleam of light.

(The third one only wrote this point, everyone will look at it, and write a little more tomorrow. I was too hungry, I only ate half a bowl of rice at night, now I cook noodles...)
