NBA: I, The Template of Aomine Daiki!

Chapter 222 Investing in Twitter, making a fortune plan (please order!)

Delva, the broker, is very efficient.

In the afternoon, according to Lin Qing’s request, he prepared a cash of 40 million US dollars.

Looking at the sudden increase in numbers on his account, even Lin Qing sighed that his earning ability was indeed too strong! ,

Although Lin Qing’s one-year comprehensive income has exceeded 100 million yuan, it contains a lot of content. In addition to contract income, there are also various endorsements and signing contracts.

Lin Qing is not a miser, and all the income he gets is managed by his broker to help him invest.

40 million US dollars arrived in the account, which also became the largest amount in his account.

No wonder Lin Qing was slightly shocked when he saw several 0s behind the numbers.

After all, knowing that you can earn so much is one thing.

But when the cash is in the account, it’s another story.

The official start of the game is less than two months away, and he will be sitting on 40 million US dollars, which is not something ordinary people can achieve.

All of this is directly related to the powerful strength he has shown.

Of course, this is absolutely inseparable from the huge influence of the NBA.

With cash in hand, Lin Qing’s heart is full of “one forty zero”.

He believes that the Twitter team, which is still in its infancy, will never resist its ability!

Delva has not been idle either. While raising money, he has contacted one of Twitter’s founders, Jack Dorsey, who is currently the head of Twitter’s board of directors.

Jack Dorsey was in New York when he was surprised to hear a basketball star contact him about investing in Twitter.

At first, I thought it was a scam call from the other party, and almost hung up.

It was not until Delva said the name of an industry leader that it was the call introduced by the other party that Jack Dorsey finally believed it.

Later, when he heard that Lin Qing was going to invest 40 million US dollars in himself, he was completely shocked.

Immediately bought the earliest plane and rushed over from New York.

In the evening of that day, Jack Dorsey arrived in the reception room of Delva’s brokerage firm.

When he saw Lin Qing, he was instantly stunned.

“WOW! My God, it was Lin!”

“Hello, Lin! I’m your big fan!”

Although Jack Dorsey is usually busy with work, he is not the IT otaku in his impression. He usually has a wide range of hobbies, including basketball.

He usually works in Silicon Valley, and his home team is of course the Golden State Warriors.

But since watching the battle between the Wizards and the Warriors at the beginning of this season, and seeing the Warriors’ team boss Monta Ellis being completely beaten by Lin Qing, he instantly became a fan of Lin Qinglu.

Later, after following Lin Qing’s games many times, he became a fan of Lin Qing.

Today, when Delva contacted him, in order to conceal the information, he did not reveal Lin Qing’s identity.

So it was not until Jack Dorsey came here that he was finally surprised to find that the investor turned out to be his idol!

Just like the performance of fans after seeing their idols, Jack Dorsey, 33 years old this year, sat opposite Lin Qing, but looked a little cramped.

Actually, it’s not just because Lin Qing is his idol.

The bigger reason is because Jack Dorsey’s trip to New York wasn’t a pleasant one.

The reason why Jack Dorsey traveled from Silicon Valley to New York across the United States is to persuade Wall Street tycoons to invest in their own venture capital.

Although Twitter has been running for more than two years, it has not formed a profit model.

Moreover, because smartphones have not yet been widely popularized, the main target groups still stay on the computer side.

But don’t forget, there is an insurmountable giant on the computer side – Facebook!

The other party wanted to acquire Twitter for $300 million last year, but was rejected by several of their founders in unison.

Since then, Facebook has seen him as a potential competitor and has smothered him from time to time.

Some of the big VCs, hinted by Facebook, all turned down Twitter’s funding request.

Either push three or four, and it is a drop in the bucket, or deliberately set up obstacles, so that he has to give up.

It raised $35 million at the beginning of this year, but now it’s running out of money.

If it can’t get more investment, Twitter will really shut down some servers in order to reduce costs.

Therefore, this time Lin Qing’s action is tantamount to sending charcoal in the snow!

Jack Dorsey was nervous because he was afraid that Lin Qing would be like other investors.

Give yourself a long list of constraints that you simply cannot meet.

Especially when Lin Qing is only a professional basketball player and doesn’t know much about technology companies.

However, after seeing Jack Dorsey’s face, Lin Qing smiled and said, “Hey, Jack, don’t be nervous!”

“I invited you over this time to discuss investment, which I think should be very important to Twitter today!”

Lin Qing’s simple sentence immediately hit Jack Dorsey’s mind.

He looked at Lin Qing in surprise, it was hard to believe that a basketball player could have such extraordinary insight!

Afterwards, Jack Dorsey finally breathed a sigh of relief, took out the financing plan he had invested in on Wall Street, and handed it to Lin Qing with both hands.

“Lin, this is our financing plan, which contains Twitter’s current operating conditions, future development plans and profit forecasts. You can learn about it first!”

However, to Jack Dorsey’s surprise, Lin Qing did not take over.

Jack Dorsey’s hands stopped in midair awkwardly, and the expression on his face became unnatural again.

Could it be that the other party is deliberately suppressing himself?

However, Lin Qing’s next words immediately made him escape from the ice cellar.

“Jack, I won’t read the financing plan!”

“To put it in your head, I have more confidence in Twitter’s future than even you founders!

“This financing has been settled, the only question is the share ratio and some details!”

Hearing this, Jack Dorsey became nervous again.

These are the core issues that Lin Qing said.

My own trip to New York financing, often fall short on this issue.

If I mess up again this time, I will really fail when I come out this time!

Jack Dorsey’s heart was lifted high, and he tentatively said his offer.

“The current shares are divided into 100 shares, 5 million US dollars per share, and a minimum of two shares can be invested, how about it?”

The last question completely exposed his lack of self-confidence.

Of course Lin Qing would not let this opportunity slip by and unceremoniously lowered the price.

“4 million shares, I will invest in the shares at one time! If it works, I will pull it down!”

Ten shares are exactly 40 million US dollars, which is a full 10 million less than the price proposed by Dorsey.

However, Jack Dorsey, who was already close to the end, gave it a little thought and immediately agreed.

Although the valuation of Twitter has exceeded 500 million US dollars now, and 40 million accounts for 10% of the equity, it is indeed a loss.

But for today’s Twitter company, the valuation is false, and it is usually used to encourage itself.

The real money invested by Lin Qing is what they need most now!

“Okay! Mr. Lin, just as you said!”

“I don’t know when the money will be available…

Lin Qing laughed immediately: “Hahaha, Jack, don’t worry, my cash is in the account, as long as you sign, it will be credited to the account immediately!”

“It’s just that I have a small request!

“That is, I must have the right to speak and veto in the review of the content of tweets in the future!”

Jack Dorsey has long been blinded by the $40 million in cash that is about to arrive, and he doesn’t care about the small request made by Lin Qing.

In his expectation, as long as Lin Qing does not dictate the development of the company, a little right is also due as a shareholder.

What’s more, it is only the right to review the content, which doesn’t seem to be a big deal now.

Therefore, Jack Dorsey couldn’t wait to take out the financing contract from his briefcase, and simply signed his name neatly.

After the 0.6 Delwa checked the contract and there was no problem, Lin Qing also signed his name in a hurry.

This financing, which accounted for a full 10% of Twitter’s shares, ended happily in the shortest time record.

Both Lin Qing and Jack Dorsey were very satisfied, especially after Jack Dorsey solved the current predicament, he couldn’t hide his excitement, and he seamlessly switched to Lin Qing fans again and had to take a photo with Lin Qing.

It can be said that Jack Dorsey is a very good entrepreneur, but his vision is still not as good as Lin Qing from the future.

He did not know that after the launch of Apple 4 in 2010, it was also a period of rapid growth of the mobile Internet.

It was also from there that Twitter covered the world in one fell swoop, and the number of users skyrocketed almost exponentially.

At that time, let alone 40 million US dollars, even 400 million, it is impossible to buy 10% of the shares.

Not to mention the more precious decision-making power to review the content of tweets, which alone is worth more than 1 billion!

Through this investment, Lin Qing has also become the behind-the-scenes helm of the future omni-media era!.
