Fight to the third generation

"It's already like this, are you still worried that I will take advantage of you?"

Su Yehao went to the bathroom, brought toothpaste and a toothbrush, leaned against the door, and said cheerfully:

"It's probably because of a hangover. It's uncomfortable to drink too much. Last night, some foreigners wanted to strike up a conversation with you, but I chased them all away. The bars here are really chaotic. If you come to study, you should be careful. It's better Get two female bodyguards to accompany you."

Throwing a blank stare at him, Jiang Yu said, "If you weren't here, how could I go drink by myself? I am really pretty, and there are people talking to me abroad?"

"Is this something to be happy about? Maybe seeing that you drank too much, I want to take advantage of you. In the future, you are not allowed to drink with others except me."

While brushing his teeth, Su Yehao tapped on her head.

It could be seen that Jiang Yu was in a much better mood when he woke up.

After tidying up.

First go to the restaurant downstairs to have breakfast, Linda Yun stays in Silicon Valley busy with work, no one helps to arrange the itinerary.

Fortunately, the hotel provided play services. Jiang Yu wanted to go to Disneyland, so Su Yehao immediately arranged for it and asked the hotel to buy a few VIP tickets.

Before leaving, let out cruel words and play with her until you have fun.

Jiang Yu remembered, probably for revenge, and took Su Yehao on the roller coaster twice in succession, throwing one of his shoes away, and the staff searched for more than half an hour before finding it.

In addition, Su Yehao was asked to change into clothes in the shape of Donald Duck. She acted as Snow White, and asked someone to take a photo.

If you come out to hang out, you will always have to pay it back.

She had bullied Jiang Yu a lot in the past, but she finally seized the opportunity to win a few times. She stayed from ten o'clock in the morning until after four o'clock in the evening, and then went to visit Hollywood landmarks and had dinner nearby.

It can only be said that Feng Shui takes turns, and those who are bullied at night will become Jiang Yu.

If it was Zhu Bajie who ate ginseng fruit yesterday, she felt so boring in the end. It was not until today that she realized why Nangongtian always liked to take the initiative to pull Su Yehao into the master bedroom when she was living together.

Sure enough, it's very interesting...

The next two days.

Except for going out for dinner, Su Yehao and Jiang Yu stayed in the hotel.

The white bodyguards guarding the door just felt helpless about it. It was comfortable, but it was too boring.

On the evening of the fourth day in Los Angeles, they noticed that Su Yehao's face had turned pale, and the bodyguards joked that if Su Yehao was kidnapped by Miss Jiang, they would wink at them.

Giving pays off.

At least after "mistake again and again", Jiang Yu's sense of guilt has eased, although he still feels sorry for Xiao Nizi, but he is no longer so entangled.

Occasionally, in the mentality of being a thief, she took the initiative to persuade Su Yehao to call Xiaonizi, and told him not to mention her name.

At last everything was calm.

The good days have just begun. Jiang Yu's vacation is over, and he has to go back to Hong Kong City to prepare for the school's final exam.

He was reluctant to let her go back, but Jiang Yu had a stubborn temper. He bought the ticket in private, and Su Yehao couldn't persuade him. He originally planned to go with her, but Jiang Yu only asked him, "What about after going back?"

indeed.

After you go back, you hide it from me.

It is impossible to go shopping together openly, and it is impossible to meet every day. It is as crazy as the past few days.

After rationality gained the upper hand, Jiang Yu offered to calm down for a period of time. If he really wanted to be together, then he would find a solution at that time.

Regarding this, Su Yehao couldn't give any better advice, so he could only let her go for the time being...

Chapter 400 So I Want to Go Public

After sending Jiang Yu to the airport in Los Angeles, Su Yehao boarded the plane himself.

On the way to San Jose Airport, I was full of emotions along the way.

Whenever a woman says "Calm down", it's usually not a good thing. Although they are together with Jiang Yu, there is still a gap between them, and it is difficult to devote themselves wholeheartedly.

It seems a bit difficult to manage this relationship well.

In Su Yehao's eyes, this kind of emotional issue was far more difficult than doing business.

When she was by Jiang Yu's side, she could still find an opportunity to persuade her. After she returned to Hong Kong City, now she can only hope that Jiang Yu will figure it out on her own and don't go into a dead end.

After thinking about it for a while.

On the contrary, Su Yehao hoped to have a child with Jiang Yu.

At least in this way, there can be a bond between the two parties, and there is no need to worry about her getting hot-headed and playing "reining in the cliff", "fulfilling him and Nangongtian" and so on.

Worry about gains and losses for a long time.

It wasn't until the plane landed that Su Yehao forcibly pulled himself together, preparing to settle the matter in Silicon Valley as soon as possible and return to Hong Kong City as soon as possible.

……

Roger Cruyff, CEO of TVT, invited Su Yehao to have a cup of coffee downstairs in the company on the afternoon he returned to Silicon Valley.

Not long after he took office, the valuation of TVT in the financing market has risen sharply by more than 1 million US dollars.

Roger received a bonus of 50 US dollars in the third quarter. The white executive felt more and more that his decision to join TVT was an extremely correct decision.

Su Yehao, who was still troubled by love, turned his legs up and said to him calmly: "So...you asked me to come out, what's the matter?"

"Listed."

Roger Cruyff spoke decisively, telling:

"I have observed for a long time that Internet companies of the same size as ours have performed very well after listing this year. Now we have met all the requirements for listing except for the shareholders mandated by NASDAQ, and many publishers have also actively contacted them. I, they and I all feel that once we go public, our company will be a big success, and the shares in your hands may be worth [-] million US dollars, [-] billion US dollars, or even more!"

This time in Silicon Valley, the executives from the ICQ chat company also suggested listing in front of Su Yehao.

However, Su Yehao felt that there was no need for this in the short term.

It's not that he is worried that he will lose control of the company after listing. With his super high shareholding ratio, even if half, [-]%, or [-]% are released, no one can take away his right to speak, let alone the fact that there are different shares in the same stock. The right system gives founders the opportunity to achieve overall control of the company with a relatively low shareholding ratio.

A "tragedy" like Jobs has rarely happened to large companies in Silicon Valley.

Su Yehao nodded and said to Roger Cruyff:

"I originally wanted to go public, but the company's current foundation has not met my requirements. The bubble in Nasdaq is already very big, and it may collapse at any time. The signs shown in the market are a bit dangerous. Maybe we just IPO will usher in the most difficult time. As we all know, the stock price will not keep rising. It is said that the revenue of the entire Silicon Valley this year is expected to reach 500 billion to 3000 billion US dollars. Interestingly, this figure is not as good as a Microsoft market value is high.”

CEO Roger leaned forward and reminded him in a low voice:

"I admit that the market is a little too hot, but because of this, wouldn't it be better to raise a sum of money at a high price while the market is particularly high? I asked someone to help me evaluate it. Based on TVT's growth rate and user scale, after listing The market value may reach [-] million to [-] million U.S. dollars."

Su Yehao, who was not moved, replied decisively: "But the price of raising about [-] million US dollars is that I will lose [-]% to [-]% of my shareholding ratio."

"But it's just financing, isn't it? You haven't lost anything."

What Roger Cruyff meant probably meant that Su Yehao originally had 2 US dollars in his hands, but after raising 12 yuan in IPO financing, it became [-] US dollars. It seems that the proportion of shares has dropped, but the actual value has not.

And once the stock price rises, his 10 yuan is likely to become 15 yuan, and Su Yehao can still make money.

The reason why many entrepreneurs want to go public is naturally because they are profitable.

Su Yehao understood what he meant, and only said:

"But I am not short of money for the time being, I can spend the funds myself, and enjoy the dividends of TVT's growth, so why should I rush to cooperate with other people? They can't bring me users and revenue. If I bring Microsoft, Yahoo This kind of company financing, they are willing to fully assist our development, this is worth considering."

CEO Roger had a wry smile on his face when he heard this.

Everyone wants to cooperate with giants like Microsoft and Yahoo with a large user base, but it's not that easy. Even if Su Yehao, as a shareholder of Yahoo, wants to attract users from search engines, he still obediently pays for advertisements at market prices.

While eating tiramisu dessert, Su Yehao added with a smile:

"As for the issue of going public, I have already thought it through, and there is no need to waste energy on it for the time being. If you are worried about not being able to get the equity, I can draw up an option reward plan as soon as possible, including you and John Zhou, And other employees have the opportunity to become shareholders. But I hope that when TVT goes public one day in the future, it will be worth 100 billion U.S. dollars, or even more, and our ambition should not be limited to just a few hundred million U.S. dollars."

"...The option incentive plan does have the opportunity to help us retain talents and attract other capable talents to join."

Roger Cruyff took a deep breath, and then told: "Okay, I understand what you mean, and I will operate it as soon as possible. However, after the rectification of ICQ, it directly impacted us, and ICQ has formed Fixed user group, most new users will choose it.”

After CEO Roger finished speaking, Su Yehao said with a smile:

"TVT and ICQ have different positioning. Young people should prefer TVT. The problem may be that the number of young Internet users is not as large as that of adults. When the game business develops, the situation should change. Next, we should consider expanding to other countries. The market is over, use our products to defeat the local products of other countries, we can't just focus on North America..."

Including Roger, a group of executives are coveting the holdings of their peers in other companies and making a lot of money from the stock market.

Behind urging Su Yehao to go public, there are indeed interests.

Roger Cruyff was quite satisfied when he learned that the option reward plan would be drawn up as soon as possible. Anyway, as long as the company develops, it will always get a bonus. It is nothing more than the difference in time.

After talking about TVT's plan for a while, when Luo Jie was sent away, Su Yehao asked Linda Yun to inform the founders of the newly acquired game companies and ask them to come up with several online games.

Broadband technology has been born, and the spring of online games is coming.

Such a good opportunity, of course, we must work hard to seize it.

"Jedi Survival", "League of Legends" and the like don't have to think about it for the time being, and they definitely can't be done, but games like "Legend" seem to have a chance to try...

Chapter 401

The so-called option rewards have certain restrictions.

In order to stimulate the enthusiasm of the employees, Su Yehao approached McKinsey Consulting Company and asked them to arrange professionals to formulate a graded option reward plan based on the number of TVT users, market share and revenue performance.

all in all.

It's probably like a checkpoint game. Whenever TVT develops to a new stage, you can unlock equity and cash rewards.

Considering that the number of netizens continues to increase, and the quality of TVT's instant chat products is quite good, Su Yehao doesn't want employees to get reward shares too early.

Therefore, he privately made a request to the people of McKinsey, hoping to wait until the number of daily active users exceeds 200 million before giving certain rewards, and in the early stage of the option reward plan, cash rewards are still the main ones.

It's not that Su Yehao was greedy and was reluctant to release the stocks.

The main reason is that in his opinion, TVT's success is a reasonable result. He spent money, gave ideas, conceived development strategies, and also acquired ICQ to attract traffic.

If this cannot be developed, then how incompetent are the employees under him?

He felt that the employees under him had not yet proved their worth, so Su Yehao chose to appropriately increase the limit requirements for option rewards. In addition, he was also worried that TVT's employees would get rich too early, and they would become the same as ICQ in the future. lax.

When acquiring ICQ, Su Yehao promised not to lay off employees for two years, and now he deeply regrets it.

A few months ago, when we arranged for McKinsey staff to rectify ICQ, we could only transfer some of the laggard employees to other departments and continue to spend money to support them, so as not to spread the laziness and affect other employees.

The cost of employing people may waste millions of dollars in two years, and some executives who have initially achieved financial freedom are also lax. The transfers that should be transferred, the warnings that should be warned, the recent situation has improved a lot compared to the first half of the year...

After Jiang Yu returned to the port city, he sent a text message back to Su Yehao, saying that cross-country flying would be fatal.

Judging from her attitude, it seems that she has no intention of choosing to distance herself. In the next few days, she will continue to send messages one after another. There is a time difference between the two places, and it is not convenient to communicate.

On November 25th.

Arranged by KOKO Venture Capital in the morning, Su Yehao met one by one with representatives of more than a dozen entrepreneurial teams, covering search engines, online shopping, online games, news and so on.

With 1000 million users in hand, he is trying to build a small ecology and support some potential entrepreneurial teams.

This matter is more difficult than imagined.

There is too much sand in Silicon Valley, and it is a lot of work to pan for gold.

In Su Yehao's eyes, there is actually a better choice, that is, to pay attention to the next situation, to get out of the top and cash out before the bubble bursts, and to wait until the Internet falls into the trough of the cold winter before investing in Amazon and Apple. Class high-quality stocks for long-term investment.

It has become clear to him that work tasks are taking up a "significant" amount of personal time.

In the past, it took more than ten minutes a day to get off work done, but this time I came to Silicon Valley, but I was entangled, and things got more and more busy.

After interviewing more than a dozen teams, Su Yehao finally chose only one forum that was a news website, and another game development team, which required a total investment of about 800 million US dollars.

on the way home.

Sitting in the newly bought Bentley Elegant, Su Yehao said to Linda Yun with emotion: "It's too scary. Ambition will keep expanding."

Linda Yun asked blankly, "What do you mean?"

"Oh, originally I only wanted to develop into TVT and ICQ, and I was busy monetizing traffic. Why did I plan to build an Internet ecological chain? No, I should continue to look at it a little bit, and hurry back to Hong Kong City after work, Liuli said she I almost forgot what I looked like."

Linda Yun was stunned upon hearing this, and asked back:

"You are doing very well recently. You are working so hard. Several institutions have arranged for people to conduct research. More people want to raise funds for us. The outside evaluation of our company is becoming more positive. Executives also said that Opportunity to turn a profit.”

"It's really good. I'm busy with the business myself. How could it not develop well?"

Su Yehao changed the subject and said with a smile:

"But my money is already enough to spend. The best way is to hold on to the basic market and make money through venture capital and private equity investment. They are the easiest. But now I actually want to build an ecology, so I say it is scary, I feel Being pushed forward, if the traffic wants to be realized, it needs to support other businesses. Once it is mixed with other businesses, it needs to spend more money and invest more energy, and it will never be successful."

Silicon Valley is toxic.
