My Age of Investment

One hundred and fifty-two, valuation pressure

???? Kristina suddenly laughed, "I won't tell you, just guess."

???? "Christina, what are you trying to say? Hurry up, it's going to kill me."

???? The little dog saw Yang Niu's smile and thought she had found some way to break the game.

???? Xia Jingxing also looked at the foreign girl, his eyes were full of inquiries.

???? Yang Niu didn't give a shit anymore and said directly: "There are still a few investment institutions that didn't reply to the email."

???? Xia Jingxing's mind changed quickly, and he thought of a lot at once.

???? nodded and said, "I understand."

???? The puppy asked, "Which ones didn't reply?"

???? "Sequoia Capital, DFJ Capital, Kleiner Perkins, these three companies, and several other angel investors didn't reply to our emails."

???? Kristina said with a smile, "Let's not talk about angel investors, because they are more of a follow-up investment. Once top capital wants to invest in Facebook, they will definitely follow.

???? Let’s just say that the three VCs who have not responded to our emails are all well-known top-tier capitals.

???? Why don't they reply to emails? Are you thinking about something?

???? If you don't agree with the pre-investment valuation of $300 million, you can directly reject it.

???? This means they are struggling, or trying to use procrastination to put pressure on us. "

???? Xia Jingxing glanced at Kristina with admiration, Yang Niu is undoubtedly very smart, and often finds huge information value from small details, and draws inferences from one fact.

???? He continued Yang Niu's words, "Christina is right, the people in the VC organization have always been the most savvy people.

???? If we can't persist and ask them proactively, the momentum will fall first, and top capital will not miss such a perfect opportunity to bargain. "

???? The little dog frowned, "Then let's wait like this? What if the venture capital institution doesn't reply to us for a month or two?

???? They can wait that long, we can't wait that long.

???? Now the decline of the dating network has shown, it is a good time for us to expand our territory! "

???? Xia Jingxing looked into the dog's eyes and said, "When we are hesitant and worried, the same is true for venture capital institutions.

???? They will also worry about whether they will be preempted by other institutions.

???? This is a rally, the competition is who has the better patience. "

???? Seeing that the boss has said this, and the puppy has no opinion, so wait.

????…………

????…………

???? One day, two days, three days... One week has passed, and it has entered December.

???? What about financing?

???? The media are very puzzled.

???? Long guns and short guns are ready, what about Facebook's financing?

???? Things got weird.

???? To say that people who are not good at Facebook, Jonathan, the CEO of Dating.com, is the first.

???? He fired directly through the media.

???? "That Chinese person is lying, Facebook users didn't break 10 million at all, all this is fake, it's a complete scam..."

???? Don't say, this kind of conspiracy theory is very marketable.

???? And Jonathan's story has nose and eyes, it's quite like that.

???? People who eat melons are watching the play.

???? Some media want this wave of traffic, blog

????

???? Seeing the public opinions of the outside world, old man John and Andrew came to Facebook again.

???? Old man John sat at the head of the conference table with a golden knife and asked: "How is the A round of financing in Darren? There are a lot of bad comments from the outside world, I listened? ? Very worried for you."

???? Old man John is really worried. After all, these three young people are still too young? They have experienced too little business competition, and they don't know how unscrupulous and inferior their opponents are.

???? Xia Jingxing nodded, glanced at Yang Niu, and asked her to make a simple report.

???? "So?? The three top capitals have been pretending to be ostriches?"

???? After listening to the report ?? Old man John had a general understanding of the situation, and a gleam of light flashed in his cloudy eyes.

???? Xia Jingxing nodded, "That's right, we didn't take the initiative to contact them, and they didn't reply to us?? But they didn't send any rejection emails."

???? Old John tapped his fingers on the table and thought carefully.

???? "What are the public opinions on the Internet?? The media that spread rumors, as well as the dating network CEO Jonathan?? What are you going to do about it?"

???? Andrew said domineeringly, "Would you like me to sue them for you immediately? Andrew's law firm hasn't received such a large order for a long time."

???? "Slow down first."

???? Xia Jingxing shook his head?? "The financing hasn't been finalized yet?? Going to file a lawsuit? It's just scratching the itch for those people.

???? Wait for them to be complacent for a while, as long as the A round of financing is in place, the moment for us to fight back will come. "

???? Andrew looked very regretful, "Well, with such a big list, if you want to file a lawsuit, you must take care of yourself."

???? Old man John expressed his opinion: "Prosecuting these rumors and the media, I agree with Darren, and we are not in a hurry for the time being.

???? As long as the A round of financing is in place, these unfavorable public opinions on the Internet and rumors slandering Facebook will immediately recede.

???? These clown-like roles are not the key, and the main energy cannot be involved, and must be focused on financing. "

???? Old man John said with a serious face, "I even suspect that there are venture capital institutions fueling public opinion, and even hiring the media to smear Facebook."

???? The little dog was stunned, "Isn't it necessary? What good are they doing?"

???? Old man John smiled, "The benefits are much more. When you first raise funds, you will have to make concessions in terms of valuation and even in terms of financing terms when faced with this unfavorable public opinion environment."

???? The little dog nodded again and again, thinking that John's words made sense, this society is so sinister.

???? For money, everyone can do anything.

???? Xia Jingxing also doubted whether venture capital institutions were involved in this wave of public opinion.

???? But there is no real evidence for this kind of thing, and it can only stay at the stage of suspicion.

???? "Daren, what are you going to do next?" Old John asked.

???? "I'm definitely not going to call the few VCs who haven't responded."

???? Old John nodded, "

continue reading! This is for sure. Now that you have come to this point, you cannot retreat. A retreat will be an avalanche of valuation, and there will be various unequal terms waiting for you. "

???? He looked into Xia Jingxing's eyes, "What I want to know is how do you want to put pressure on VCs? Let those old guys sit still and take the initiative to contact you."

???? "I'm not that talented."

???? Old John shook his head and smiled, "I believe in you, you must have a way."

???? Hearing this, Andrew, Kristina, and the dog also stared at Xia Jingxing.

???? "I have a few ways, but I don't know if it will work or not."

???? There is a way, or a few.

???? Old man John couldn't sit still, smiled and waved his hand, "Don't let us guess the riddle, if you have any plan, say it quickly, let me be surprised first."
