Life in the world of film and television

Chapter 174 $450 Billion

In the second half of 2.5, with the release of the new algorithm, Douyin continued to be popular, the total users exceeded 5.5 million, and the daily headline users also exceeded [-] million. Yuandian Technology launched the B round of financing.

This round of financing was carried out quickly, with a total of 12% of equity issued, financing 18 billion U.S. dollars, and a post-financing valuation of up to 150 billion U.S. dollars.

After the financing, Li Mu still holds a 66% stake in Origin Technology.

At this time, on the basis of the country's vigorous promotion of speed reduction, traffic charges have dropped rapidly, and the popularization of short videos to the whole people is gradually on the way.

The 18 billion US dollars that had just been acquired were subsequently distributed by Li Mu with a large amount of money to quickly promote and seize the market.

……

Soon, time entered 2018, and the 18 billion US dollars raised in the previous year was quickly burned out, and the results were also extremely remarkable. The total users of Douyin exceeded 4 million, and the total users of Toutiao exceeded 7 million.

In May 12, Yuandian Technology launched the C round of financing, and once again took out 33.6% of the equity, financing 280 billion U.S. dollars, and the post-financing valuation was as high as [-] billion U.S. dollars, becoming a well-known unicorn enterprise in China.

After dilution, Li Mu's shares in Origin Technology dropped to 58.08%.

Subsequently, Yuandian Technology won the naming right of the Spring Festival Gala at a high price of 38 billion yuan. The unique influence of the Spring Festival Gala and the activity of shaking and grabbing red envelopes made Douyin users usher in another surge.

……

In 2019, Douyin has begun to internationalize and has made great achievements. In April, Yuandian Technology launched the D round of financing.

This time, the company took out a total of 13% of the equity and raised US$450 billion at a post-financing valuation of US$58.5 billion.

The announcement of the news shocked the whole country. As an unlisted technology company, it raised a record of US$58.5 billion in a single round.

Li Mu instantly became famous and became a well-known Internet boss in China.

Origin Technology's valuation of US$450 billion is indeed dazzling, and it is also worthy of the envy and pursuit of others.But only Li Mu knows that, limited by his own ability and vision, even with the real-world bytes as a reference, the development of Origin Technology is still a bit behind.

In the real world, ByteDance’s valuation at this point has already exceeded [-] billion US dollars, and its dozens of products are much stronger than the current Origin Technology.

This is not only a problem of being late in starting a business, but also a problem of Li Mu's own ability.Even if there is real-world experience that can be used as a reference for learning, not everyone can become a business leader without taking detours.

However, it cannot be said that he did not do well. With the experience in the real world, it is already very powerful to be able to develop Origin Technology to this scale.

However, at this point, the timeline is only a few months away from the real world, and the experience and information that the real world can provide is basically gone.

Next, how is Origin Technology developing?All on his own.

good or bad!

This also means that the timeline for his return to the real world is not far away.According to the rules, the real world is the main world, and the timeline of the film and television world cannot exceed the timeline of the real world.

This meant that he had to return to reality after a few months.Although there is a chance to come back in the future, I don't know when.

……

The Happy Five Sisters network media company has also developed well in the past few years. Some time ago, it just raised the C round of financing, with a valuation of 30 billion yuan.

The five sisters have become little rich wives with a net worth of over [-] million, and bought cars and houses in the Shanghai stock market, realizing their dream of settling down in the Shanghai stock market.

For Fan Shengmei, Guan Juer, Qiu Yingying and other girls from other places, the changes in the past few years are like a dream, and they never expected to come to this point.

Not only the change in social status, after years of training, personal abilities have also grown, and everyone is more confident.Compared with a few years ago, there have been radical changes.

Regarding Fan Shengmei and Qu Xiaoxiao, Li Mu stated very early on that he had no intention of getting married, they were free to come and go without interfering.

However, the two of them didn't know what to think in the past few years. Not only did they not intend to leave, but their relationship became better and better, and they became better girlfriends than Qiu Yingying and Guan Juer, which surprised people.

Fan Shengmei and Qu Xiaoxiao are good girlfriends?This news left Li Mu in a daze for a long time.

Fan Shengmei and Qu Xiaoxiao?When the two met for the first time, they couldn't see each other right, and they were naturally at odds with each other. Can such two people become best friends?

Li Mu was very puzzled, but soon his doubts were answered. Fan Shengmei and Qu Xiaoxiao joined hands and asked him to play poker to learn English.

I thought it revealed that they didn't want to get married, and the two would choose to leave after thinking about it.I don't know what the two of them were thinking, but they actually acquiesced in this relationship, and even joined forces to fight together.

Regarding their choice, Li Mu didn't want to interfere, he didn't hide the fact that he was bothered and didn't get married, it was their freedom to choose.

Andy's mentality has also changed a lot in the past few years. In the past, let alone getting married and having children, he even rejected dating.I don't know if I figured it out in the past two years?Still thinking about it?The mentality also slowly changed.

Although I still fear marriage and have no intention of getting married, I am inevitably lonely, and sometimes even fantasize about adopting a child.

However, the adopted ones have no biological relatives.

Under Li Mu's bewitching, she slowly became a little moved. As a woman, who would not want to be a mother once.

Everyone appreciates a good man, and Andy is no exception. Even though he knows that Li Mu is playful, Andy has no plans to get married, so he doesn't care that much.

That evening, Li Mu was reading at home, and Andy came over with two bottles of red wine.The two chatted for a while, had a few drinks, and the atmosphere gradually improved.

Li Mu found that Andy was a bit unusual today, and said, "Andy, you..."

Andy took a big sip of red wine, as if he mustered his energy.

"Li Mu, you are currently the only man I don't reject physical contact with, I think..."

Li Mu instantly understood her purpose, and the two had discussed this topic before: "I want a child."

Andy blushed for such a cold person.

Li Mu drank the red wine in the glass in one gulp, glanced at the flushed Andy, picked it up and walked to the bedroom without saying much.

Andy buried her head in Li Mu's arms with her face flushed, she remained motionless, only her trembling body proved how restless she was.

The moon was setting and the sky was full of stars. With a painful murmur, a cheerful piece of music sounded.

The next morning.

Andy lay in Li Mu's arms: "Thank you, Li Mu!"

Li Mu smiled and said, "Thank you for what? Thank you for making such a big deal."

Andy blushed slightly, not knowing what to say.

Li Mu caressed her smooth skin with one hand.

"However, Andy, you should understand that I am not specific. I can have children, but I cannot give you marriage."

Andy glared at him: "I'm not blind about you and Xiaofan Xiaoqu. But I, like you, don't want to get married. It would be nice to have a child, so as not to be lonely when I grow old."

Li Mu said: "Think so clearly?"

Andy sighed: "As you know about my situation, I have mustered up a lot of courage to choose to have children. I don't want to marry, and I don't want to implicate anyone."

"Besides, you rich people, I don't understand, how can you be single-minded for a lifetime."

Li Mu walked lightly with one hand, curiously said: "Say me, I admit it, what about Lao Tan! Could it be the same?"

Andy said: "What do you say!"

Without waiting for Li Mu to open his mouth, he continued, "Old Tan has quite a few girlfriends. When I first met him, his catchphrase was too little money and too many beauties; Changed to too little time, too many beauties; now the mantra is life is too short, too many beauties."

"However, he takes beauty very lightly. He never delays his work for pleasure, and even turned his rivals into comrades in arms a few times."

The two chatted for a while before Li Mu got up.Andy is not feeling well, and he may have to rest at home for two days.

A few months passed, and the time for Li Mu to return to reality was getting closer and closer. Andy communicated with him frequently during this period, and finally got his wish.

She just handed in her resignation and she is going back to the United States.

Although Li Mu was a little bit reluctant, he agreed.Fortunately, with the size of Origin Technology, there is no shortage of excellent chief financial officers.

In this way, the timeline of the real world is getting closer and closer, and the time of return is getting closer and closer.

Finally, one night, after tasting a few glasses of wine, Li Mu's heart moved, light and shadow flickered, and he disappeared completely.
