Ye Fan smiled and didn't say anything. Anyway, he planned to climb the Great Wall today. He would leave the Siheyuan to Chen Hai.
Wang Yalun continued to wait for news from Jingdong.
Ye Fan received many calls from people who were not from the investment banking world. Some of them were even looking for you to raise funds.
Fortunately, he had found this secretary. Ye Fan would probably have to answer the phone himself. Who could handle dozens of calls a day?
"Gan Wei, are there any bigger companies that have this kind of financing? Has there been any news from Bai Du?”
Baidu was going to be listed next month. Although they had set up a new PE company, there was still no news of the last round of funding for Baidu!
After Google withdrew from China, Bai Du was the leader of the search engine in China. It had about 80% to 90% of the market share, so Ye Fan had to invest in Bai Du.
Even if the last round of financing did not go well, he had to buy it on the opening day.
"CEO Ye, Baidu hasn't replied yet. Wang Gang has already gone to talk to them.”
Gan Wei was getting busier and busier, and she seemed to have forgotten her identity.
To be precise, Gan Wei's major was also related to finance. She was related to business management.
Moreover, she had also obtained an overseas Master's degree, but it was not so easy to control companies like investment groups.
"Let's go climb the Badaling Great Wall. We can finally have a barbecue tonight!"
Ye Fan still had things to do. The matters in July had almost been arranged.
After all, the Ye Group's two investments had already attracted the attention of many venture capital institutions.
At Sequoia Capital's headquarters in Beijing, a team was in the conference room studying the investment project of Jingdong.
"President Zhang, we should have been a step late yesterday. The Ye Group had already contacted Liu Qiangdong before we did!”
Recently, the Ye Group had been in the limelight. They had invested in Tengxun and Ali Group, and they had actually rushed ahead of Sequoia Capital!
Zhang Wei held his head. There had been a lot of things going on recently. He did not expect to meet this Ye Group yesterday. This was really a little unexpected.
Even if Sequoia Capital was managing 1 billion USD, they wouldn't dare to invest 600 million USD.
"President Zhang, I got news from other channels that Jingdong has already contacted President Ye of the Ye Group Investment Group. They are willing to bid 10 million USD for 30% of the shares!”
The director of Sequoia Capital, who followed up on the Jingdong project, had a helpless look on his face. He was talking about how this start-up was actually willing to give 10 million USD. It was a huge gamble.
Even if Sequoia Capital raised funds, it would not give too much for start-ups. In this domestic company, at most, it would be an angel round of investment. It would only be a few million yuan, which was enough.
If they gave him 2 million USD, he would have more than 16 million now.
At present, the valuation given to Jingdong was only about ten million yuan.
Sequoia Capital's investment model had three stages.
In the seed stage, it was about 100,000 to 1 million dollars.
In the early stages of growth, it was 1 million to 10 million.
The growth period was 10 million to 50 million USD.
Obviously, the company was in the seed stage.
According to Sequoia Capital's investment plan, they could get at most 1 million USD in investment. This time, they gave an extra 1 million USD to invest in the early stages of growth.
"The Yates Group is willing to invest a large amount of money. They are obviously optimistic about the future development of Jingdong. We will continue to follow up on this project and see how they develop!”
As the vice president of Sequoia Capital, Zhang Wei could currently manage less than 50 million USD!
He couldn't possibly raise tens of millions of dollars, so this project was already irrational.
Ye Fan visited the Badaling Great Wall that day, then went to the Forbidden City, Summer Palace, and other places of interest. He had probably visited a lot of places in Beijing.
"CEO Ye, the project from Jingdong hasn't replied to us yet. Li from the car home wants to see you?”
When Wang Yalun called, it was already the time for him to go back in the afternoon. He had visited the Great Wall and the Forbidden City today!
"Alright, I'll go to his company tomorrow!”
The Home of Cars was also a giant with billions of dollars. It could be said that it would be the most visited car website in the world in the future. Car consumers could choose a car, buy a car, and swap cars.
In the future, everyone would use this website when they bought a car. Therefore, if he could get involved now, perhaps his shares would be a good thing.
The next day, Ye Fan went to the headquarters of the Home of Cars.
Li Xiang's age was not much different from Ye Fan's. He was born in 1981.
When Ye Fan saw him, he still had this scholarly aura on him. Moreover, he was the type of person who was a top student.
He had already started his business in 2000!
Li Xiang wasn't wearing a suit. Instead, he was wearing casual clothes. Then, he waited for Ye Fan in the company's reception room.
Recently, he had caused a lot of commotion in the investment world. As a result, some financial news reported which company the Ye Group had invested in.
