Chapter 453: Keep It Simple(1/2)
The clouds outside the window seemed to be clustered under my feet.
The South Pavilion on the 93rd floor has two different weather conditions than the ground.
Looking out the window from the south pavilion, the sky is clear, but standing on the ground, it is sunny and cloudy.
The fragrance floats slowly, adding a sense of harmony to the atmosphere in the room.
As soon as Liu Qin finished speaking, before Fang Nian had time to speak, Ren Yuxin felt deeply.
"When I think that Mr. Fang is still in college, I feel really old."
Kuang Ping took over the conversation with a smile: "It's okay for you, I am born in the 60s, and I will be over 40 in the blink of an eye. Time makes people grow old!"
The room was suddenly filled with an atmosphere of joy.
Fang Nian waved his hands repeatedly and joked to himself: "I'm really sorry, I will definitely put on makeup next time. At least I will look in my thirties."
Everyone laughed loudly again.
Most of the people in this room, except Guan Qiuhe, are more than 15 years older than Fang Nian.
In addition, Lei Jun, who was born in 1969, was actually the same year as Fang Zhengguo. As for Kuang Ping, who is now in his forties, he is older than Lei Jun.
"..."
Liu Qin started chatting, and everyone followed the trend without rushing to get to the point.
The room is full of investors. Even Guan Qiuhe has the title of "Frontier Angel Partner".
After chatting for a while, we started talking about the ‘smartphone industry’ which has been extremely noisy recently.
"Apple has really created a new era. It can be said that it has moved computers to mobile phones." Zhang Sijian of Sequoia Capital said with emotion.
"The Internet is really noisy right now." Liu Qin said with a smile.
Zhu Yue from Goldman Sachs chimed in: "Everyone is talking about how far away the mobile Internet era is."
"In fact, this question should be asked to Mr. Fang." Kuang Ping said with a smile, looking at Fang Nian, "I heard that Mr. Fang invested a lot of money in some related companies in the past two months, Mr. Lei's Xiaomi, Director Liu's NetDragon 91.”
Fang Nian smiled and said calmly: "Now even public opinion is only discussing the distance, rather than denying it, which explains the problem;
I am very optimistic about Mr. Lei’s Xiaomi company, after all, it is a part of the mobile Internet.”
After a pause, Fang Nian said enthusiastically: "It just so happened that Mr. Lei told me two days ago that he was going to start Series A financing, and I plan to let Frontier Angel continue to lead the investment."
"Look, this is Mr. Fang's plan. We at Morningside also participated in Xiaomi's Angel Wheel, and Mr. Lei never mentioned it to me." Liu Qin pretended to be dissatisfied and jealous.
Kuang Ping's eyelids moved slightly and he said calmly: "Mr. Fang is so optimistic about Xiaomi?"
"I just heard that the company is in Yingu Building. There is no further news. Could it be that there is a product now?" Zhang Sijian said.
Fang Nian smiled slightly: "It has been posted on the Internet a few days ago. If Mr. Kuang and Mr. Zhang are interested, you can communicate with Mr. Lei and I won't do it for you."
"..."
When Fang Nian said this, everyone present stopped asking further questions.
Everyone has their own thoughts on this matter.
When Lei Jun founded Xiaomi, he was indeed very low-key, with Lin Bing at the forefront, but he was not low-key in the capital circle.
Because Lei Jun himself is a well-known angel investor.
In addition, Xiaomi was valued at US$30 million in the angel round a few days ago, which caused some news in the investment circle.
Moreover, Liu Qin has experienced it firsthand. In the blink of an eye, she discovered that the valuation of the company she invested in had increased before it was established.
So everyone here knows it clearly.
Even Ren Yuxin has heard of this story, although he is not actually from the investment circle.
Guan Qiuhe, who didn't say much, had mixed feelings in her heart at this time.
She finally discovered how comforting Fang Nian's Frontier, especially Frontier Angel, was.
Jump directly to the capital circle, and there won’t be too many things you can get involved in.
For example, now, Guan Qiuhe always pays special attention to the slight change in Ren Yuxin's face.
She guessed that kind of change was called...
Lost.
Goose Factory Games is awesome. It can launch a new brand TGP and directly become the leader in China. It can even invest in rival companies.
But the soul of this rival company has no concept of the industry for a long time.
Needless to say, TGP only followed Dangkang Game Platform when it became popular. Now, Fang Nian has already joined the mobile Internet industry that everyone is still waiting to see.
A simple sentence tells the truth.
No matter how hard TGP suppresses Dangkang Games, the founder of Rendangkang has long been manipulating capital.
He, Ren Yuxin, had to rush to send money because he looked familiar.
Just thinking about this matter in her heart, Guan Qiuhe felt comfortable all over!
This is the happiest moment for Guan Qiuhe since TGP was launched.
…………
Fang Nian turned his eyes and scanned the people in the room lightly.
Liu Qin, who had a certain tacit understanding with Fang Nian, took a sip of tea, put down the cup, and brought the topic back to business.
"Mr. Fang, Mr. Guan, let me not beat around the bush and talk about the financing of Dangkang Games."
As soon as these words came out, Ren Yuxin changed his sitting position and leaned against the back of the chair.
Kuang Ping leaned forward.
Zhang Sijian and Zhu Yue had faint smiles on their faces.
Guan Qiuhe took over the conversation without hesitation: "On behalf of Dangkang Games, I would like to first thank all the big guys in the capital circle for the favor. Thank you."
"..."
Guan Qiuhe took out several identical documents from the specially brought briefcase and handed them to everyone present. There was no secretary assistant in the room, so he had to do it himself.
He said: "This is the current business development situation of our company, I..."
Seeing Guan Qiuhe take out his notebook, the eldest Kuang Ping suddenly interrupted: "Is Mr. Guan going to give a PPT lecture?"
"Yes." Guan Qiuhe nodded calmly, "I want to tell you about Dangkang's business development and future plans first."
A thought flashed through my mind: "Investment banks habitually make things difficult?"
Guan Qiuhe knows that many large companies have experienced this when financing, and they started to make things difficult before the PPT was even two pages long.
But she thought that Dangkang wouldn't have to go through this now.
Kuang Ping waved his hand, looked around, and said loudly: "I don't think everyone needs to listen to Mr. Guan's PPT lecture, right?"
"There is no need for PPT. Mr. Guan can simply talk about Dangkang's future plans." Zhang Sijian nodded in agreement.
"..."
Seeing that everyone had this idea, Guan Qiuhe followed the good example.
Briefly talked about the business development status and planning of Dangkang Games.
Including Wu Hong going to the United States to discuss cooperation with Valve, including the research and development direction of Dangkang Game Branch in Pengcheng...
However, it does not include the R&D-data center established by Dangkang Games in Luzhou, nor does it include Bifang Cloud Computing, which will definitely have in-depth cooperation, nor does it include the mobile game business team that is currently being established.
The meaning is very simple. If you don't say it, it means you don't take action.
Even though Ren Yuxin and Guan Qiuhe were among the people present, they were not completely hidden.
In the eyes of everyone, this can only be regarded as full sincerity.
Even Zhang Sijian and Zhu Yue, who were dealing with Fang Nian for the first time, could feel the goodwill released by Fang Nian and Guan Qiuhe on behalf of Dangkang Games.
Throughout the whole process, Fang Nian just smiled and didn't say a word.
His eyes rarely stay on anyone, but more on staring at the billowing clouds outside the window.
But Fang Nian saw everyone's reactions.
He has long known that this kind of investment negotiation meeting with entangled interests of multiple parties will be very complicated.
Everyone has their own interests and calculations.
Even Ren Yuxin, who came on behalf of Goose Factory Games.
After all, with the current business competition situation, it is still far from a life-or-death fight.
But these don't affect everyone's own opinions.
After some exchanges, Ren Yuxin took the lead in asking the question, with a very sincere tone: “Excuse me;
I want to know how Dangkang Game Platform should respond under the checks and balances of our new brand TGP of Goose Factory Games."
After a pause, Ren Yuxin added: "How should we ensure that future plans can be implemented smoothly?
To be continued...
