"Hello!" Henry walked to Li Yanhong and greeted with a smile, "Are you Li Yanhong?"

Robin Li glanced at Henry, nodded and said: "Hello, I am Robin Li! May I ask if you are..."

"My name is William!" Henry smiled, briefly introduced himself, and then asked, "I heard that you used to work for Infoseek in the United States, and you also invented hyperlink analysis technology?"

"Yes!" Li Yanhong nodded and replied. At the same time, a pair of eyes looked at each other with doubts. Obviously, the other party knows himself well.

Henry faintly smiled and said to Robin Li: "I have studied'Hyperlink Analysis' before. This is one of the top search algorithms, even if it is compared with Isearch's PageRank, it is not much better!"

"Haha, thank you for the compliment!" Li Yanhong couldn't help but show a trace of pride on his face when he heard this.

"Mr. Li returned to China this time, is he planning to start his own business?" Henry asked.

"Yes, I founded an Internet search engine company with a few partners a month ago! The company's name is Baidu!" Li Yanhong explained with a smile, "The word'Baidu' is taken from Xin Qiji's Qingyu Case A poem in "", "I searched for him thousands of times in my dream, and suddenly looked back, but the man was in the dim light"!"

"Looking for him a thousand Baidu in my dream? Well, yes. The name Baidu is good!" Henry nodded in praise, then paused, and asked straightforwardly, "Mr. Li, does Baidu need to invest?"

When Li Yanhong heard the words, he couldn't help but stunned, "Are you from a venture capital company?"

"I am an angel investor!" Henry said lightly, "How about it, Mr. Li, is Baidu willing to accept angel investment?"

"Of course I would..." Robin Li nodded with a hint of excitement, "Internet companies are very money-burning companies, and now it is the cold winter of the Internet. Very few venture capital institutions are willing to invest in us. Except you, just Only IDG is willing to invest US$1 million for us."

Henry frowned unconsciously, "Excuse me, did Baidu accept IDG's investment?" Robin Li invented Hyperchain Analysis. He is considered a top talent in the industry. He returned to China to start a business, and some venture capital companies are naturally more optimistic about him. No, IDG was willing to invest in the company not long after it was established.

"We haven't reached the conclusion yet. We still have some disputes on equity for the time being!" Li Yanhong did not hide it, and said to Henry, "IDG wants 30% of Baidu's shares. I don't agree with that! I'm willing to spend 20% at most. % Shares to it!"

Henry said: "Well, you are right to do this. Baidu uses Hyperchain Analysis. In the Chinese market, no one except Isearch can be beaten! IDG wants to exchange 1 million US dollars for 30% of the shares, it is too greedy! "

Henry secretly said that it would be better to disturb IDG's investment in Baidu, so that he can occupy more shares in Baidu.

Li Yanhong couldn't help being stunned when he heard Henry's words. I have only seen investors belittle the value of the company, so that they can get more shares at a cheaper price, but the person in front of him is the other way around... For a while, Robin Li was puzzled!

Henry smiled at this time and said to Robin Li: "Look, if I invest 3 million US dollars, how many Baidu shares are you going to give me? 1 million US dollars, you are willing to give IDG venture capital 20% of the shares, 3 million US dollars. , I don’t want more, how about 51%?"

"..."

Li Yanhong immediately became silent. This decision was very important and he had to think twice! The venture capitalist's control of 51% of the equity is equivalent to complete control of the company, and the company becomes someone else's company, which is not in line with its original intention. However, Baidu is in urgent need of huge funds for development...maybe it can allow the other party to reduce investment, thereby reducing the number of shares held by the other party. However, it is impossible to discuss clearly the specific investment situation for a while. After all, this is not an occasion for negotiation. It would be good if the two sides reached an agreement.

"Mr. William, I can’t reply to you for the time being. You know, this matter is very important, and I need to discuss it with several other partners!" Li Yanhong took out a business card from his bag and handed it to Henry, with the company’s address and On the phone, "Mr. William, if you have time, you can come to Baidu, and we will have further discussions. What do you think? Or, we can negotiate door-to-door!"

Henry took the business card and looked at it, then put it in the right pocket of his clothes. "Of course it’s okay. I have time tomorrow. Then I will come to your company to negotiate! The time is set at 4:30 pm. After the talks, by the way Have a meal together!" Henry said with a smile.

"No problem, very welcome, I will treat you at that time!" Li Yanhong said happily.

At this time, a middle-aged foreigner in a black suit came over.

"Mr. Li, what are you talking about? Looks very happy! This is..."

Robin Li smiled at him, and then introduced to both sides: "This is Mr. Green Gardner, IDG's Asian Executive Director, and this is Mr. William..."

Henry didn't want the people at IDG to know that he wanted to invest in Baidu, so he immediately interrupted: "Yes, my name is William, the friend that Mr. Li Yanhong just met! Oh, it's nice to meet you, Mr. Green Gardner!"

"I am also glad to meet you, Mr. William!"

Henry laughed: "Uh, by the way, I saw an acquaintance, I have to go over and say hello to him, and you two will talk slowly!"

Henry waved his hand and said goodbye to them.

Zhou Hongyi had already seen Henry, but when he saw that he was discussing things with other people, he didn't bother to step forward.

"Mr. Zhou, didn't you think you were here?" Henry walked up to Zhou Hongyi with a smile.

"Yes. This is the China Internet Summit. Although 3721 is a small company, you can't miss such a major event."

"Well, that's right." Henry smiled and asked, "How about it, have you thought about the conditions I offered?"

"Not yet." Zhou Hongyi shook his head.

"It's okay, there is still time for you to think."

Henry ordered a glass of champagne from the waiter and sat with Zhou Hongyi on a couch in a corner.

Zhou Hongyi asked at this moment: "Mr. William, the person who was chatting with you just now is Li Yanhong, right?"

"What? Do you know each other?" Henry looked at him with a smile but a smile, and said, "Yes, he is indeed called Robin Li!"

Zhou Hongyi said: "He is well-known in Zhongguancun. It is said that he developed a hyperlink analysis search algorithm, which is one of the top search algorithms even in the United States! Not long ago, he established a search engine company in Zhongguancun! Call Baidu..." After speaking, Zhou Hongyi quietly looked at Henry's expression.

3721 and Baidu are obviously competitors ~lightnovelpub.net~ Zhou Hongyi has to worry that Henry may not invest in 3721 if he invests in Baidu.

Henry naturally understood Zhou Hongyi's thoughts and deliberately said in front of him: "Yes, he also invited me to visit their company!"

"Mr. William, did you agree?" Zhou Hongyi asked nervously.

"Well, I promised!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Hongyi's face became a little ugly. "If Mr. William invests in Baidu, what will 3721 do?" Zhou Hongyi's computer suddenly turned like a machine crazy, "No, I must stop him and mess things up!!!"

"Mr. William," he said, "Compared with Baidu, 3721 has some gaps in search technology, but in terms of marketing methods, Baidu's bidding horses are not as good as 3721! In the Chinese market, Baidu's technology can outperform it. Isearch? Obviously not! So, if you want to take a place from Isearch, you must win by surprise!"
