My Age of Investment

  Chapter 194 Back Road

   "Naturally choose the best strategy!"

  Xia Jingxing turned her head away, and stared at the little dog and said, “Ignore them completely. No one knows what disturbance they will cause in the campus market?

  This kind of unstable factor must be eliminated as soon as possible.

  Speaking of acquisitions, the first is too early, and the second price is not easy to talk about. Facebook itself is still a startup company, so there is no extra money to buy others. "

  The little dog nodded, "Okay, then we will now begin preparations to raise the high school market to a higher priority."

  Xia Jingxing waved his hand, "Go and call Christina in, I'll talk to her."

  The little dog came out of the office, and after a while, Christina came in again.

  Xia Jingxing began to chat with foreign girls about F, a competitor who suddenly appeared behind Facebook.

  Young girls attach great importance to this, because before that, no competitors entered the campus market.

  Too long of peace has caused Facebook itself to slack off, believing that no competitors will run to the campus market to "grab food".

The emergence of   F, the babes are still a little surprised.

  But it was just a surprise.

  Because the current Facebook is not the Facebook of more than a year ago.

  With a cash reserve of 60 million U.S. dollars in hand, with hundreds of employees, it can be described as a strong soldier.

  Several picture social networking sites created by Harvard students have not even gotten angel investment. With a mass of tens of thousands of users, if it weren’t for the other party’s entry into the Facebook’s private space-the campus market, the foreign girl would not want to deal with each other.

  At present, there may be dozens or hundreds of social networking sites in the United States, such as Diaoyou.com, which has nearly tens of millions of registered users, and the smaller ones have 1200,000 users.

The size of   F is not at the top among all competitors.

   But since the other party has chosen to oppose Facebook, they can only accept the baptism of the thunderstorm.

   Discussed with Xia Jingxing about the response plan, and Yang Niu quickly started to act.

  First, the user distribution map of Facebook was retrieved from the database from the technical department.

  Because Facebook is a real-name system, and users need to fill in the school where they are located, the penetration rate of Facebook for universities and high schools is well known.

  The coverage rate of Facebook in the university market is very high. It has exceeded 60%, close to two-thirds, and it will be sooner or later that the remaining one-third of the market is completely filled.

  But in the high school student market, the market share is really not high, less than 10%.

  Moreover, the 10% of the market is not evenly distributed on all continents in the United States. It presents a distribution trend of high coverage on the west coast and low coverage on the east coast.

  After reading the user distribution map and confirming the crux of the problem, Kristina began to dispatch troops and let the operation department begin to make activity plans and budgets for the East Coast High School market.

  In the past, Facebook had no funds and could only advertise in schools by selling T-shirts.

  Now that the shotgun has been changed, it can also sponsor high schools and universities to engage in sports competitions, debates and other student activities.

  …………

  …………

  Boston area.

  At the gate of a certain high school, several 15- or 16-year-old boys were pushing their bicycles while chattering about:

   "Did you go to the school debate today? Qiao Silin is so cool, she almost cried the silly guy opposite, she deserves to be my goddess!"

   "What is your goddess? That is everyone's goddess. We have established a group on Facebook for Qiao Silin, and many people are discussing Qiao Silin in it."

   "If only Jocelyn could come to my birthday party?"

  "You sent a private message to Qiao Silin directly on Facebook, maybe she would reply to you?

  In fact, it doesn’t matter if she doesn’t reply to you. I secretly tell you that there are many pictures of her on Qiaoslin’s Facebook account, and there are even swimsuit pictures..."

  ……

  The boys didn’t even notice that there were three young men in their twenties watching them.

  The boys talked more and more, while the faces of the three young men became darker and darker.

  Until a few boys pushed their bicycles away, a tall, thin young man with freckles kicked the tree in front of the school, "Damn it!"

   "Mark, don't be angry!"

  A young man with glasses looked at the fallen leaves on his head, and wondered how much hatred and resentment this was? Hastened to persuade the companion who kicked the tree.

  Zuckerberg held his hair with both hands, and looked extremely distressed.

   "Mark, don't be like this, you are our core, you can't be discouraged.

  If you are all discouraged, then F agency is all over! "

  It was another fair-looking young man who persuaded Zuckerberg, who was well-dressed.

   "Eduardo, this is the eighth high school we ran today!"

  Zuckerberg looked upset and said, "These high school students are all discussing Facebook, no one is discussing our F agency."

  Eduardo Saverin, the well-dressed white young man sighed, “It’s no way. Facebook has money and has tens of millions of dollars in hand and can sponsor high school at will.

  And we can’t, we just registered the company. The 100,000 dollars I invested before has already been spent seven or eighty eight.

  Don’t even go to high school to run ads and sponsor their activities, we almost can’t even rent a server. "

  The young man wearing glasses suggested: "Would you like to accept financing?

  As long as we have money, we can also promote our products like Facebook. "

  Zuckerberg glared at the young man with glasses, "Dustin, do you know how harsh the financing terms are?

  One million dollars, just want to take 40% of our shares.

  This is not angel investment, this is naked robbery! "

  Eduardo spread his hands, "Mark, I think we should consider the issue of survival.

   Selling 40% of the shares at once, which is indeed a lot.

  But without this million dollars, we might have to go bankrupt next month.

  With money, we can do a lot of things, we can sponsor schools, promote our website, recruit employees, and develop more and more abundant functions for F agency. "

   Zuckerberg was silent.

   Personally, he did not want to accept the financing terms that made him feel humiliating.

  But the money on the company's account is getting less and less, and Facebook is still burning the war to the door of his house, which has to make him make an extremely difficult choice.

  To survive, we still need face.

  …………

  …………

  In a cafe inside Harvard University.

  The George elite with suit and leather shoes and meticulous hair combing is full of elite style. He smiled and looked at the three Harvard students who were two or three years younger than him on the opposite side of the table.

   "How is it? After thinking about it for so long, do you think I still have the best conditions?"

  George’s arrogant attitude made Zuckerberg very upset, but in order for the company to survive, he had to bow his head, "Yes, we decided to accept your investment."

   Edward added, “But there is a prerequisite, the company must implement AB shares, and the control of F society must be in the hands of our three founders, because we know this company best.”

  George laughed and said, “There is no problem at all. I just want to be an investor and have no interest in the control of F agency.”

   "Okay, then it's settled!"

  Zuckerberg didn't want to drag on any longer, seeing that the other party agreed to the AB share structure, he no longer hesitated.

  George saw that Zuckerberg seemed to be reluctant, but it didn’t matter. He didn’t mind, as long as the equity was acquired, he could say anything.

  Since he missed the opportunity to invest in Facebook, he went crazy looking for social networking sites.

  While looking around, I found Company F.

  In the beginning, the other party had a tough attitude and refused to make his investment.

   But now, I still bow my head to the capital.

After signing the investment agreement, the three founders of F agency left, and George also left the cafe and sat in the newly bought Ferrari sports car.

  However, he did not immediately set off fire and left. He seemed to be waiting for someone and glanced out the car window from time to time.

  After a while, Eduardo went and returned.

  Sit into the Ferrari car, Eduardo patted the interior, "This car is good!"

  George smiled and said, "After running F agency well and achieving the desired goal, I will send you one in half a year."

  Eduardo smiled, did not speak, he is not the one who lacks these three melons and two dates.

George saw the disdain in the other person’s eyes and was not angry. He threw a bigger bait: "You manage F agency well. If you can reach 1 million users within half a year, I will go to Facebook and let them merge. you."

   Then he compared five fingers, "The purchase price is at least this number!"

   "Will Facebook agree to acquire us?"

  Eduardo did not choose to trust the other party, but raised his own doubts.

   "If you follow the direction I said, they feel threatened, they will."

  George said with a smile.

  As for the investment of F company, he has already made a plan. If he can grow independently, he will naturally be the best.

  If you don’t do much, work hard towards the goal of “acquired by Facebook”.

  In this way, his investment is guaranteed to be recovered, and maybe he can get shares in Facebook.

  As for Zuckerberg's "dream", he has a fart relationship with him.

  He has followed his parents to witness various capital operations since he was a child, and he has worked at Morgan Stanley for so long, and he is very familiar with these methods.

   "Okay, I get it!"

  Edward nodded more. He also has some concerns about whether F agency can grow independently.

   So he hit it off with George and reached a consensus.

  Both of them smashed money into F company with real money, so they must think more about the future.

  Entrepreneurship dreams, independent development, etc., can not be eaten.
