My 1999

The flat -headed man looked at the excellent appearance, and the big beauty, a somewhat unwilling heart.

This mentality is also the minds of most men present.

"Instead of doing such a daydream, it is better to think about our project. If we really want to invest, in the future, the company will be listed, and we can also become billionaires.

What kind of woman do you want at that time? "The man in the plane laughed.

"Hehe, what is said."

Xu Liang, the protagonist of the scandal, couldn't help turning his head and glanced at the two.

"Huh?"

He always felt a little familiar.

After the man's eyes aware of his eyes, he nodded friendly nodded first, and then whispered:

"Didn't the school issue an announcement? It is said that it can help outstanding entrepreneurs to dock with Hanhua."

The aircraft head boys waved their hands, "I have seen it earlier, and the request is the American local project and campus project. Where are our projects?"

The flat man sighed.

On the stage, Helen's sharing also came to an end.

"If you want to start a business on campus, I suggest that you start with a small and simple project, and accumulate certain funds while exercising the team.

For example, the Facebook open platform needs a lot of small games and interesting applications. You can develop it according to your interests and hobbies.

I believe that the Facebook Open Platform will become a good helper for all entrepreneurs, helping all outstanding entrepreneurs go towards their own success! "

Near the end, Helen did not forget to advertise, but did not cause any disgusting students, but warm applause broke out in the audience.

Different from ordinary chicken soup lectures, Helen still shared with students a lot of entrepreneurial dry goods prepared for her in advance for students, increasing the excitement of her speech today, and promoting Facebook.

Many Stanford students made up their minds, and then organized a team to develop products, and then went to the Facebook platform to try water.

In particular, I heard that many small teams have obtained a lot of advertising sharing and paid props recharge through the development platform, and they have made a lot of money, which makes students jealous.

Accompanied by President John, Helen was surrounded by several security personnel and left from the back door.

Many students who listened to lectures have also begun to leave in an orderly manner.

Xu Liang didn't go to the fun.

When the people around me were almost gone, they were ready to leave.

The two male students who chatted earlier also fell behind. Xu Liang watched the handsome man with the plane head, his mind was bright.

Suddenly thought of the identity of the other party.

Asked immediately.

"Are you called Chen Ou?"

The mandarin in the righteousness of the word made Chen Ou watch it subconsciously.

"Do you know me?"

Xu Liang didn't know it, but ‘I’ m Chen Ou, I ’m going to feed my bag of salt’ advertisements, even if it has passed for two decades, it is still memorable.

Jumei Youpin is a mess.

Unfortunately, the founder was blindly diversified, and the steps were too big to pull the egg after all.

Within a few years, Jumei was a yellow stall.

However, the shared charging treasure project it founded later achieved profitability, so that the son of the richest man did not dare to raise a gambling contract a few years ago.

Chen Ye is a successful entrepreneur.

Xu Lianggang is about to speak.

"You ... you are Jin Kai, no, Mr. Xu Liang?"

The flat -headed man looked excited and incredibly asked.

Xu Liang touched his face subconsciously, "I painted this like this, how did you recognize me?"

He is now facing a mixed face of Chinese drama.

Unless you are an acquaintance, it is difficult to recognize face to face.

Listening to him, the flat man affirmed his guess instantly.

I walked subconsciously.

But soon blocked by a bodyguard.

Xu Liang waved his hand and signaled that the bodyguard did not need to be nervous.

The flat -headed man fiercely kicked Chen Ou.

The latter responded instantly, and quickly stepped forward: "Mr. Xu, hello. We are Stanford students. We founded a game battle platform called GGGAME, which is the largest game battle platform in Singapore. I hope to get your investment."

Xu Liang froze for a moment, and then laughed.

"What is the kind of Haofa Online?"

Chen Ye did not expect that Grand Lord Xu was so approachable, had a lot of confidence, and quickly continued: "Haofang only serves domestic users online. Our goal is to be the largest game company in Southeast Asia."

Regardless of whether, Chen Ye knew that at this time he had to blow out the cowhide first, attracting the interest of the big man.

"The largest game company in Southeast Asia?"

Xu Liang looked at Chen Ye and looked at the companions next to him. It was quite interesting.

After seeing the battle here, students were constantly gathered around, and the more they got together.

"I know, come to the Hanyu Silicon Valley office to come to me tomorrow, let's talk about it."

A light and fluttering sentence instantly made Chen Xian suddenly happy.

After sweeping the two from the two, he turned and left.

He didn't need to have multiple things in such a trivial matter.

But since you met, ask.

Looking at the back of the big brother, Chen Ou waved his fist hard, and he looked excitedly with the partner next to him.

"Frester, you are too bullish, how do you recognize him?"

The flat -headed man was also full of excitement. "I just thought I thought about my back, and noticed that there were so many bodyguards around him, and I felt that the other party must be a big man.

Just now he asked you, it was a mandarin in the righteousness, and I tentatively asked, but I didn't expect it to be really him.

God cares too much. "

After Chen Ou nodded hard, "Let's go, go back to prepare information, and strive to get the financing of Hanhua in one fell swoop."

"Walk."

Intersection

Soon after Xu Liang got on the car, Helen also arrived.

"Why, Stanford didn't leave you for dinner?" Xu Liang asked with a smile.

"Stay, but I refused."

"Why?"

Helen's delicate body snuggled into his arms, "Compared to those men's narrow eyes and the thoughts that I thought of donating money in the words, I still want to accompany my dear husband."

Xu Liang glanced at her with a smile.

"I just have such a few weaknesses, all of which have been studied by you."

"Hee hee, that is, you. Others want me to study. I am too lazy to think about it. ... By the way, how about my speech today?"

"Great. Just now on the stage, the eyes of all male creatures made me feel jealous. Girls are envious, jealous, and even worship you." Xu Liang laughed.

"How do you think I don't care, I just care about your opinion."

The dark blue beauty reveals strong love.

Xu Liang held her slender waist.

"Helen, let's regenerate a child. You should get more inheritance with such excellent genes."

"This is the best praise I have ever heard."

The woman smiled like a flower, and tightened him.

Intersection

The next day, early in the morning.

Chen Ye and his partner Li Xiaodong came to the Hanhua Silicon Valley office with excitement. A blonde front desk lady brought them to Xu Liang's office.

As soon as he entered the house, the two immediately greeted Xu Liang, who was working in the buried head.

"sit!"

Xu Liang nodded by the two, and then continued to bury his head. There was no extra expression.

Chen Ye and Li Xiaodong sat down in the sofa chair. The two of them had their eyes and both saw the excitement and excitement in each other's eyes.

Time passed one minute and one second, and the two began to feel a little right. Xu Liang seemed to forget the two of them and had been busy with his work.

On the way they came, they fantasized that they were shocked. When they painted the big cakes, Kim Caesar made a shot on the spot and gave their entrepreneurial project a thousand dollars to $ a thousand dollars.

Now they calm down, which may be that the other party's test for themselves may not be necessarily.

Thinking of this, the two hurriedly sat down, and they didn't speak between each other. They only used their eyes to communicate.

After drying the two for almost an hour, Xu Liang finally raised his head, glanced at the two who looked like usual, got up and walked over, and smiled:

"Let you wait for a long time."

Chen Ye hurriedly said: "It's okay, Mr. Xu, you can make a valuable time to see us, we are already grateful."

Li Xiaodong nodded, "Yes, Mr. Xu, you are so polite."

Xu Liang sat down on the sofa chair and asked the two to introduce themselves.

"Mr. Xu, my name is Chen Ai, the English name is Lio, Sichuan Shu, and Stanford MBA.

"Mr. Xu, my name is Li Xiaodong, the English name is Frester, the Jinmen, and has graduated from Stanford MBA this year. He is the co -founder and CEO of GGGAME."

After listening to the introduction of the two, Xu Liang nodded gently, "Okay, Lio, Frester, please introduce GGGAME in detail now."

Chen Yin's test -looking: "Mr. Xu, I started from the background of GGGAME?"

"All can."

Seeing that Xu Liang had no impatience, Chen Ye said from himself to studying in Singapore and then founding the company.

Chen Ou started to college at the age of 16 after graduating from elementary school, so he started to college at the age of 16. His grades were very good. He received the full scholarship from Nanyang University of Technology.

In 2005, Chen Yue, the third place in the university e -sports president and also won the third place in the Singapore's "Warcraft" competition, saw the popular operating scene of domestic Haofang Online, and the idea of ​​entrepreneurship burst into his mind.

He wants to build a battle platform that competes with Haofang in front of him, first use the advantages of the ground to occupy Southeast Asia, and then use Singapore's international advantages to quickly advance into Europe and the Americas until it becomes the world's largest game battle platform.

There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book!

After listening, Xu Liang asked with a smile: "Should university entrepreneurs eat a lot of suffering?"

Chen Ye felt that Xu Liang had founded Hongmeng during his high school, and he must have a common language with himself, so he began to choose some entrepreneurial interests.

"Although I learned a computer at the university, I didn't even have programming at that time. While studying hard, I arranged for the beauty sisters and sisters of the e -sports agency to join the programmatic master to join ..."

Chen Ye talked about his own history of entrepreneurship, because he played well and could say that the key was handsome, so the beauty of Nanyang University of Science and Technology liked to turn around him, and he was very popular on the campus.

Then, Chen Ye used his advantages to entrust these little beauties to help him tap the programmers.

Xu Liang looked at Chen Ye carefully. He felt emotional, and he was indeed the man who would make women's money most. It seemed that he had a talent in this area very early.

Chen Ye said with a smile: "At that time, because of the lack of money and lack of people, I had to accompany everyone to do research and development.

For several months, I slept only five hours a day, never left the house, and ate fried eggs with tomatoes for three meals a day. I almost vomited.

Because I have a beard, and my beard grows very fast.

In the words of my classmates: During that period, a handsome professional player disappeared, and we often saw a bearded programmer squatting in the corner staring at the computer in a daze.

Many classmates sympathized with me and thought that I might have gone too far in starting a business.

Because in the eyes of Singaporeans, working in a big bank is the best destination for students from prestigious schools, and starting a business is not doing the right thing and it is almost impossible to succeed. "

Recalling the hard and misunderstood years of struggle, Chen Ou smiled self-deprecatingly, and soon he became energetic again: "However, we finally developed GGgame after all the hardships.

I used my connections in the professional e-sports circle to invite the WCG champion and the ESWC champion to have a century-long peak showdown on the GGgame platform, which soon attracted a large number of users to register.

As a result, I met a large number of domestic e-sports players and industry professionals, including King Pei Le of WE Club, SKY Li Xiaofeng, and founder Zax Zhou Hao. "

Xu Liang nodded slightly. He knew Li Xiaofeng, the World of Warcraft champion, who became an Olympic torchbearer by playing games, which was quite remarkable.

Chen Ou said lightly: "It is no exaggeration to say that GGgame has been very successful in terms of the achievements and popularity created by the platform, but because we are a student team, we have not been able to get venture capital for a long time, and our life has been very difficult.

We have always relied on sponsorship from game companies and event companies, as well as my scholarships and various competition bonuses to support the development and operation of GGgame. "

Xu Liang nodded slightly. It is normal to be miserable.

These days, there is not much development prospect in e-sports. After more than ten years, it is completely different.

"Later, I heard that because our team did not have an MBA resume, we could not get investment for a long time.

So I applied for an MBA at Stanford, thinking of coming to the United States to meet some investors and completely solve the financial difficulties. "

Speaking of this, Chen Ou patted the shoulder of Li Xiaodong who was sitting next to him.

"Then I met Brother Li Xiaodong through the relationship of alumni. He is an undergraduate of Shanghai Jiaotong University, and then worked in human resources for several years in Morotola. He has also graduated with an MBA. He has more business experience than anyone in our team.

This year, Brother Li Xiaodong has been accompanying me to meet various investors. At the same time, he is also responsible for the business and team building of GGgame, and has contributed a lot to the company. "

Li Xiaodong smiled honestly.

"I didn't help much. The foundation of GGgame was laid by you. Mr. Xu decided to meet us because of your persistence. "

Looking at the two partners who were friendly and respectful to each other, Xu Liang was filled with regret.

He remembered clearly that in his previous life, the two had turned against each other, and Jumei and Garena had often fought each other, always trying to prove that they were better than each other.

There are two versions of the story of grievances circulating in the market.

One is that Chen Ou felt that GGgame had no future, so he forced Li Xiaodong to take over his shares, and then Chen Ou returned to China to establish Jumei Youpin after graduating from Stanford MBA.

The other version of the story is that Li Xiaodong and his wife's classmate, the angel investor of GGgame, squeezed out Chen Ou, monopolized the company, and re-registered a new company with his team. The company Garena completely cleared all traces of Chen Ou's existence.

Garena mainly does game agency and is Penguin's number one henchman in Southeast Asia.

Later, Garena started by acting as an agent for Penguin's popular games and changed its name to Sea Donghai Group, which covers three major business sectors: e-commerce Shopee, game Garena, and digital financial service SeaMoney.

This company is known as the Southeast Asian version of "Ali + Penguin + Alipay". It is also the largest Internet company in Southeast Asia and the third largest Internet company in Asia, with a market value of nearly US$200 billion, and its development momentum is even faster than that of China. Meituan, Jingxi, and Pinduoduo are all going to be strong!

Putting aside the grudge between Chen Ou and Li Xiaodong, if Xu Liang were to summarize the success of Donghai Group:

It should be that GGgame first established its reputation in the game circle, especially in the domestic game circle, and then successfully attracted the attention of Penguin.

Penguin invested heavily and supported a Southeast Asian startup company to fill its own game distribution territory.

Of course, Li Xiaodong is also extremely visionary and courageous. Penguin only helped him to get the game.

But he successfully incubated two trump cards, e-commerce and digital finance, based on the game.

When these two businesses were focused on, it was already 201 7 years.

Ali's top horse 'Lazada' was already the largest e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia at that time.

In the end, it took only one year for Lazada to be defeated by Shopee.com, and the defeat was incredible.

I don't know whether there is something wrong with Ali's values ​​or it is not localized enough, which leads to the incompatibility.

When Donghai Group was just listed in 2017, its market value was similar to that of Jumei at its peak, which was only a few billion US dollars.

But in the next few years, the stock price has grown dozens of times, attracting global attention. It should be indisputable that this achievement belongs to Li Xiaodong alone.

"Mr. Xu, I'm a little long-winded. The above is the entrepreneurial history of GGgame."

Chen Ou said with a smile: "We are now planning to raise a round of angel investment, build a perfect team, re-upgrade the platform, and strive to make GGgame the world's largest game battle platform.

Hongmeng Game is the world's largest game company, and we can cooperate in this regard."

Xu Liang nodded slightly and smiled: "You are very good at attracting business for yourself, but Hongmeng also has Blizzard Battle.net, which now has nearly 80 million users worldwide, almost 100 times your 'GGgame'.

And we also have strong capital and a large number of mature games to support us.

Compared with 'Blizzard Battle.net', what is the selling point of 'GGgame'?

Where is its future? "

"Mr. Xu, we admit that Hongmeng's 'Blizzard Battle.net' has developed very well and is a truly world-class battle platform.

But even so, there are 'Haofang Online' and 'Penguin Battle Platform' in China, and there are B5 Battle Platform, FACEIT and other battle platforms abroad.

Although Hongmeng Games is the world's largest game company, it accounts for less than 20% of global games.

In order to avoid increasing Hongmeng Games' competitive advantage, companies such as Nintendo, Microsoft, Activision, and EA will not hand over their games to 'Blizzard Battle.net'.

This is our 'GGgame' opportunity!" Chen Ou said sincerely.

Xu Liang nodded, thought for a while and said: "How much do you value GGgame?

How much financing do you want? "

Li Xiaodong and Chen Ou looked at each other and saw the joy and excitement in each other's eyes.

Chen Ou made a tentative offer: "8 million US dollars pre-investment valuation, 2 million US dollars in financing."

Xu Liang nodded, did not express his opinion, and changed the subject and asked: "What is the current equity structure?"

Chen Ou answered in detail: "I own 43.75% of the shares, Forrest owns 37.5%, and the option pool owns 18.75%."

After listening, Xu Liang was a little hesitant. Should he invest in GGgame now?

If his investment causes Chen Ou to not return to China to start a business, and to run GGgame in partnership with Li Xiaodong, can the two still achieve the glory of their previous lives?

After a little consideration, Xu Liang decided to invest, but he couldn't feed GGgame too much, and now this small company is not worth 10 million US dollars at all.

Xu Liang quickly gave a quotation: "US$500,000, with a post-investment valuation of US$2.5 million."

Chen Ou's smile was a little forced, "Mr. Xu, you cut off three-quarters of the valuation and financing amount in one go, isn't it a bit...

How about we both take a step back, a post-investment valuation of US$5 million, and financing of US$1 million, what do you think?"

Xu Liang shook his head gently: "I'm not bargaining with you. GGgame is only worth this much now. I believe that other institutions may not even be willing to give you a quote except me.

I give you a piece of advice: GGgame is too weak now. If you want to raise more funds, you have to show more convincing results."

Chen Ou wanted to argue, but Li Xiaodong on the side was anxious and quickly gave Chen Ou a look.

The two made a plan before coming here. As long as Xu Liang is willing to invest, no matter how much, accept it first.

Chen Ou opened his mouth, he wanted to fight for it again, but he knew that his strength and status were not equal to Xu Liang, so he could only sigh helplessly: "Well, let's do it according to your wishes, Mr. Xu!"

"Happy cooperation!"

Xu Liang stood up and handed his palm to the two people. Chen Ou and Li Xiaodong stood up and shook hands with Xu Liang.

In any case, the company still has funds for the next stage of development. If you spend 500,000 US dollars frugally, it will be enough for one or two years.

Thinking of this, Chen Ou was not so disappointed.

Li Xiaodong still had his signature smile on his face, looking very honest and simple.

The investment in 'GGgame' was just a small episode in Xu Liang's life. After the discussion, he handed it over to the Silicon Valley office for connection.
