Chapter eight hundred and eighty untrue

Du Jianzhao and Mark Kwam had a very pleasant drink of this cup of coffee. They basically got what they wanted, so they naturally had a very good chat.

Renren Technology needs to be one of the major shareholders of LinkedIn, Sequoia Capital, which is one of the major shareholders of LinkedIn, and Sequoia Capital, hopes to start cooperation with Renren Technology and even Chuke Technology with this help!

Not to mention domestic, foreign countries also pay great attention to future returns, especially in the Internet industry, who are very good at future returns on investment. Otherwise, it would be impossible to invest such high investments in technology companies that have just been established for a few months or even a shorter time.

These investments require returns. Sequoia Capital wants to do the same with Chuke Technology. With its early investment and even suffering losses on LinkedIn, it is necessary to cooperate and contact Renren Technology!

What made Mark Kwam feel most deeply about this meeting was that Renren Technology seemed to have a lot of gaps between what the outside world imagined.

From Du Jianzhao, the head of Renren Technology, Mark Kwam has a clear feeling that Du Jianzhao does not seem to resist Renren Technology City, which is somewhat beyond Mark Kwam's expectations.

In the eyes of Silicon Valley and Wall Street, Chuke Technology has always tended to be conservative. Compared with other Internet companies, Chuke Technology has never been very enthusiastic about its industry market. Otherwise, how could it have caused the Oriental Net Market, which has been established less than two years ago, and the longer-term Renren Technology, but SG Games, has no market movement at all?!

But this time, Mark Kwam felt that Renren Technology and even Chuko Technology were not as conservative as they thought. Although Du Jianzhao was also wary of the cooperation with the trend of investment capital, he did not feel disgusted with Mark Kwam. Mark Kwam was his biggest gain this time!

"With Renren Technology and LinkedIn Technology cooperation, Sequoia Capital will do its best to enable the two sides to reach cooperation!" Mark Kwam said to Du Jianzhao.

Du Jianzhao nodded, "Then I will wait for the good news, and I hope Renren Technology can become a collaborator with Sequoia Capital!"

Du Jianzhao is not brand new to Mark Kwam. Du Jianzhao knows exactly what kind of personality these venture capitalists are. Du Jianzhao does not expect to gain advantage in Sequoia Capital. As long as Sequoia Capital stands on Renren Technology this time, it will be enough!

Du Jianzhao's itinerary was very hasty during this trip abroad, and only a few days later. After North America was finished, he had to go to Europe to meet with the management of skype and ask the two founders of skype to go to Yanjing for talks.

When Du Jianzhao met with Mark Kwam, Hu Qianshan, who followed Du Jianzhao to North America, also brought Renren Technology's personnel in North America to meet the person Chen Chu asked for his surname to take down.

When 27-year-old program engineer Jack Dorsey saw Hu Qianshan and heard that Hu Qianshan wanted to invest in "Twitter", he looked shocked and stunned for a long time before he came to his senses, looking like he had seen a ghost.

The creativity and ideas of "Twitter" were already thought of four years ago. Jack Dorsey wanted to launch a software similar to SMS, which allows users to publish messages through this software, so that friends or others know what they are doing, share their own activities, etc. It is a micro blog!

As early as a few years ago, Jack Dorsey wanted to develop "Twitter", but there was no sufficient fund. The concept of blogging had appeared a few years ago, and many blog companies appeared, but the competition was fierce and it was not profitable for a long time, so Jack Dorsey no longer wanted to develop this software. Now Twitter has just launched a project, and Hu Qianshan is here to find a door. Jack Dorsey thought someone recommended them to Hu Qianshan.

"Who told you about the Twitter project?!" Jack Dorsey couldn't help but ask Hu Qianshan, "It must be Bizstone, right?"

When Hu Qianshan heard this name, she frowned. She had no idea who the ghost name that later became Twitter eo was. Hu Qianshan also found Jack Dorsey through Renren Technology's personnel in North America.

"I forgot to introduce that I am a member of the Yanjing headquarters of Renren Technology. This time I am here on behalf of Renren Technology and Chuke Technology. I want to invest in Twitter!" Hu Qianshan said to Jack Dorsey.

Hearing Hu Qianshan's words, Jack Dorsey couldn't believe his ears. Looking at the person with the Asian face in front of him, he thought Hu Qianshan was an investment institution in Silicon Valley, but now he heard Hu Qianshan say that she is from Renren Technology, how could she not surprise Jack Dorsey?

When Jack Dorsey heard that Renren Technology, the world's largest Internet social giant and watched his Twitter project, he felt a little helpless when he heard that he could not hide his excitement, and then he was a little helpless.

"It's a pity that you're a step late. Now Twitter is no longer something I can decide by myself!" Jack Dorsey said helplessly and regretfully.

Hearing this, Hu Qianshan looked at Jack Dorsey, stared at Jack Dorsey and said, "Has the Twitter project been taken away by others?"

Seeing Hu Qianshan's expression, Jack Dorsey hurriedly said, "No, no, no, the situation is a bit complicated now!"

Then Jack Dorsey told Hu Qianshan that he is currently working in a startup called odeo. A few months ago, Jack Dorsey recommended a Twitter project to the boss of the Odeo company, Evan Williams, who was born in Google. Evan Williams immediately agreed to invest in the Twitter project. Now the Twitter project was proposed by Jack Dorsey, but now it also belongs to Evan Williams.

Looking at Hu Qianshan, Jack Dorsey said, "In addition, there is a creator on Twitter. The prototype of Twitter was written by Beatstone and I jointly!"

After saying that, Jack Dorsey looked at Hu Qianshan with a nervous look on his face. Jack Dorsey knew how much influence the other party had on Renren Technology, a giant in the Internet social industry.

If the other party wants to enter the blog market, then other companies can basically be eliminated, and it is impossible to compete with Renren Technology!

As for Twitter’s creativity and current background, Jack Dorsey dares not hide it at all, nor can he hide it. If you hide these, Jack Dorsey will be a fraud and there will be countless troubles in the future. Silicon Valley has its own rules for creativity. If you take it alone, you will have to pay a heavy price!

Hu Qianshan didn't expect that a small project that was not famous had such a complex background. After thinking about it, Hu Qianshan said, "You call Evan Williams and Beestone over together. I don't want to know how you allocate this project, but now Renren Technology wants to invest or acquire Twitter, you can consider it!"

"It's time until five o'clock this afternoon, I have an important meeting late!" Hu Qianshan said to Jack Dorsey in front of her.

Hu Qianshan knew from Du Jianzhao that Chen Chu seemed to value the Twitter project, but that's all. If Twitter is unwilling to cooperate, Renren Technology will also look for similar projects. In Silicon Valley, there are too many projects similar to Twitter in front of you, and there will be too few that can be able to log in to Nasdaq in the end!

After hearing Hu Qianshan's words, Jack Dorsey immediately jumped up and started to make a phone call outside. It took less than a few hours, but in less than half an hour, Ivan Williams and Beatstone, who were going to invest in Twitter, had already arrived.

More than an hour later, he put away the investment letter that he had just signed with Jack Dorsey, Evan Williams and Beatstone. Hu Qianshan looked at the three and said, "I hope you can go to Yanjing within these few days, where you can start a formal meeting and then sign the agreement!"

When Hu Qianshan left, Jack Dorsey, Evan Williams and Beatstone looked at the intention investment book on the table. This intention investment book weighing less than 50 grams was worth more than 18 million US dollars!

Renren Technology injected 18 million US dollars into Twitter and obtained 70% of Twitter's equity. The remaining equity belongs to Jack Dorsey and the other equity. As for how they will distribute these equity, it will not be under Renren Technology's management.

Although it was just an investment book, Jack Dorsey, Evan Williams and Beatstone still felt unrealistic. In just a few minutes, they exchanged Twitter for $18 million?

For Internet giants, they had the concept for the first time, and when they thought that Twitter would be backed by Renren Technology in the future, this made the three of them feel hot.

Think about the well-known industries under Renren Technology, Facebook, Renren, Renren Music, Renren Film and Television, and Blockbuster, all are famous companies. Now that Twitter is about to become one of them, they will also be able to go to the bell ringing station of Nasdaq. How can they not make the three of them excited!

After meeting Jack Dorsey, Hu Qianshan hurried to Chinatown again and met a domestic person in a restaurant in Chinatown.

Looking at the person in front of him, Hu Qianshan walked forward, "Sorry, I'm late, I've been delayed for a little time if I have something to do!"

Yuan Zai, 35, stood up and said casually, "You're welcome. I just arrived not long ago. The taste of this Shandong restaurant is very good and it's not the same as the country. Come here to remind me of some things from the past, you can try it!"

For Yuan Zai, a rare Chinese executive in Silicon Valley, Hu Qianshan's first feeling is easy-goingness. The kind of self-confidence that Hu Qianshan rarely comes to North America from China and can feel it.

Pushing a piece of meat in front of Hu Qianshan, Yuan stared at Hu Qianshan and said, "Ms. Hu is very young. I have always heard that a famous Internet company has appeared in China. I feel it from Miss Hu!"
