When I saw Zhu Min again, he was still the same.

Although she is wearing a suit and a tie, she doesn’t look like a successful entrepreneur in Silicon Valley, but rather a farmer who has experienced many vicissitudes of life.

It is not a strange thing to judge people by their appearance. When Damother of the United States, he regarded Fang Fenglei, who was wearing a suit and a lace but had a beard, as the leader driver. In the end, these foreigners were beaten to death by Fang Fenglei. This joke has been passed down in the domestic financial industry for more than ten years. Chen Qiaoshan naturally believed that he would not make such low-level mistakes.

At noon, he confirmed his itinerary with Zhu Min in advance.

After all, he was a landlord. Chen Qiaoshan was going to arrange someone to pick him up, but Zhu Min not only came by himself, but also brought a special guest.

Downstairs of Rongke Information, Zhu Min pointed to a young man who got off the car and said, "Mr. Chen, I'll introduce you to a friend."

The surprise on Chen Qiaoshan's face flashed. He knew the person who came here, and it was Li Yanhong, the founder of Baidu, who was hotly discussed by the media recently.

A month and a half ago, Google officially landed on Nasdaq, raising more than 1.7 billion US dollars, and the two founders quickly topped the list of the global richest people.

Affected by this, Boss Li, who has always been low-key, has also become a media celebrity, and rumors about Baidu are emerging one after another. Among them, news that Google will acquire Baidu at a price of no less than 100 million US dollars has spread all over the world.

Chen Qiaoshan naturally knew about these gossip news, and he knew more than ordinary people.

It is less than a year before Baidu's IPO, so it is definitely impossible to sell it, and it is very likely that it has begun to go public.

Chen Qiaoshan was somewhat surprised when he saw Li Yanhong. The person in front of him is not famous now, but as one of the founders of BAT, he will be the leader in China's Internet for a long time in the future.

Seeing Zhu Min taking the initiative to let Li Yanhong out, Chen Qiaoshan said: "No need to introduce him. Mr. Li is my senior brother from Peking University and is also a role model for our entrepreneurs. I have been acquainted with him for a long time."

Zhu Min smiled and said, "I knew I was coming to Kangsheng, Yanhong said he wanted to come and have a look. It was a coincidence. I didn't expect you to be the same schoolmate."

Li Yanhong kept staring at Chen Qiaoshan, and he had heard of the person in front of him for a long time.

Whether it is Kangsheng or Qingshan Capital, they are not an unknown person in Zhongguancun, especially the webmaster conference, which made Kangsheng famous and attracted countless small and medium-sized webmasters.

Li Yanhong didn't think the two families would have intersections, but the changes in things are often unexpected.

Kangsheng first introduced Lynk & Cott, and quickly opened up the market with the huge number of users, creating direct competition with Baidu Alliance. Then, with the help of Discuz's channel advantages, Yisou was given to the top of the music search market.

Advertising alliances can still be ignored, but the latter undoubtedly invades Baidu's direct interests. Kangsheng's nearly 200,000 application websites occupy at least 30% of the traffic portal outside the online portal, and no one can let it go.

Baidu MP3 search was launched half a year earlier than Yahoo, but its market share was lost to Yisou. In addition to Yahoo's own traffic advantages, Kangsheng's promotion efforts are quite powerful.

The cooperation with Kangsheng was not reached, which made people helpless.

Baidu is now planning to go public. Whether it is performance requirements or to defeat a competitor in advance and to compete with Google with all its strength, it must seize this nail.

Li Yanhong didn't expect that the two had alumni relationship. Now things might have turned around. He was not in a hurry to talk about cooperation. He smiled and greeted everyone upstairs.

Zhu Min came here this time just to talk to Chen Qiaoshan about the entrepreneurial fund.

He knew very well that Silicon Valley is the Silicon Valley of mainstream technology companies such as Intel, Oracle, and Cisco. Net News has reached a bottleneck period and there is no room for continued growth.

Since you cannot become a first-class technology company, it is better to leave it out instead of continuing to struggle in the United States. After all, the domestic market has not been fully developed, and it should not be difficult to achieve something with your experience and financial advantages.

It is precisely because of this that Zhu Min has gradually withdrawn from the management of Netcom and gradually focuses on venture capital.

He came here this time and wanted to know the real situation of Qingshan Capital. If possible, it is feasible to find a partner.

However, after learning about the relevant situation, Zhu Min was a little disappointed.

Qingshan Capital has good hardware configuration, but there is no capital or talent, which is obviously an empty shell.

After listening to Chen Qiaoshan's introduction, Zhu Min realized the problem and asked: "Mr. Chen, then, Qingshan Capital Capital has completed the fundraising?"

"That's not." Chen Qiaoshan knew very well that the truth could not be hidden from those who were interested.

If you want to be a regular VC or PE, the threshold for admission tickets is extremely high, and the starting point of registered capital is eight digits.

Qingshan Capital is currently an unlicensed business. Fortunately, it has been doing venture capital. No one will cause trouble for the time being, but this is not a long-term solution.

Chen Qiaoshan has made plans. In addition to reinvesting, the rest of the profits in the crude oil futures market will be injected into Qingshan Capital.

Facing Zhu Min, Chen Qiaoshan would not show any fear. He said: "We are only focusing on venture capital for the time being. We have raised more than 30 million US dollars. We should be able to get approval documents by the end of the year and strive to carry out normal equity investment projects at the beginning of next year."

Zhu Min understands what is the key, and venture capital depends heavily on investors' vision.

Due to the long investment cycle, the earlier you intervene, the greater the risk. Compared with funds, you value the individual ability of investors more. If you can only invest in angels, it is obviously worthless.

Zhu Min was a little disappointed, but he did not show it.

During his time back to China, including Baidu Investment, he has seen several investment funds. Compared with mature venture capital institutions in Silicon Valley, his domestic operations seem a bit amateur.

Zhu Min thought that it seemed that the best way was to build an investment fund by yourself rather than find a partner.

Li Yanhong said at this time: "Mr. Chen, I heard that Kang Sheng is downstairs. Why would you take Mr. Zhu and me down to visit?"

"No problem." Chen Qiaoshan agreed with a smile. For him, the risk of venture capital is approaching zero, and there is no need to raise funds from outside without shortage of funds.

If Zhu Min took the initiative to mention it, Chen Qiaoshan would not refuse. After all, it was a favor. Seeing that the other party had no intention, he would naturally not rush to push out the opportunity to make money.

When we arrived at Kangsheng, except for Liu Chang and Dai Zhikang, even Yao Yong and others were waiting in the company. They obviously did not want to meet Zhu Min, and there was almost no news about this person in China.

Looking at Li Yanhong with a baby face, Chen Qiaoshan felt a little helpless. Now that he is worth more than Li Yanhong, he must have surpassed Li Yanhong, but the rumor of 100 million US dollars in mergers and acquisitions made Li Yanhong famous all over the world.

Seeing this scene, Chen Qiaoshan simply didn't hide it. He introduced Zhu Min and Li Yanhong to the open office area.

As soon as the words were finished, the programmers in the entire R&D area were sensational. One was the founder of a Silicon Valley Internet listed company and the other was the founder of Baidu. In the eyes of these coders, they are all top-notch existences.

Seeing those introverted men gathered up, either asking for a photo or signing, Chen Qiaoshan stepped aside with great knowledge and tactfulness. These programmers were all pretentious and had a high opinion of themselves, and only the top coders would convince them.

The office area was a little confused for a while, similar to the situation where stars were seen in later generations, and Chen Qiaoshan was too lazy to pay attention to it.

Liu Chang came over and asked softly: "The company is currently working with Yahoo. You can bring the Baidu boss over. Which one is it?"

Chen Qiaoshan chuckled twice, "I came here uninvited, but I didn't ask him to do it. Besides, Kangsheng will not choose a side station if he doesn't search, and he will not choose a side station. Whoever has the higher price will cooperate with him. This is a pure commercial behavior and does not involve anything else."

Liu Chang curled his lips, seemingly disbelieving Chen Qiaoshan's words.

She knew the inside story, and the reason why she finally chose to cooperate with Yahoo was entirely an exchange of interests. In order to continue to hang Yisou on Discuz's free template, Zhou Hongyi not only paid for the money, but also offered additional conditions, and was willing to extend the diversion promotion of Lien Forum for two months, and then reached an agreement.

Chen Qiaoshan ignored Liu Chang's thoughts. He remembered something, "Hey, has Lao Wang still contacted Chen Jinkai recently?"

"There are some contacts, but both of them are busy, just make a call occasionally."

In order to repay the favor, Wang Sifeng took Chen Qiaoshan and Yan Xiaoqin to the resource hotel for a big meal in order to repay the favor. Unexpectedly, Chen Jinkai did not come, and the four of them were released. In the end, Liu Chang gritted his teeth and paid for the bill.

Unexpectedly, the situation was changing. The dilapidated house that was clamoring to beat the local tyrants to share the land turned over and sang. Wang Sifeng is now a worth tens of millions of dollars, and Liu Chang's equity can be worth one hundred and eight hundred million. On the contrary, Chen Jinkai, who was proud of the early spring, was defeated.

Thinking of the experiences over the past year, Liu Chang was also sighing. She asked, "Why did you suddenly ask about this? It seems that you and Chen Jinkai have never met each other?"

"I really don't know each other." Chen Qiaoshan told the truth.

Chen Jinkai was an apprentice brought out by Wang Sifeng. He was taking private jobs together in college. Wang Sifeng also introduced them to Baidu. He knew all these situations.

Now Baidu is preparing to go public. Whether it is to lay a nail or make some money, investing in original stocks is a good choice.

Only the senior executives must know the news that Baidu plans to go public. It is obviously impossible to enter the market at this time, but it is not impossible to imagine that Chen Qiaoshan started to think badly.

During the listing process, recycling the number of controlling shareholders of employee shares is a necessary stage for many companies. The company can repurchase equity. As long as there is no restriction agreement, it can naturally trade privately.

Now that Baidu's acquisition is everywhere, the senior executives have never spoken out to refute the rumors. This undoubtedly greatly reduces the cost of acquisition and increases the possibility of joining the market. In terms of reason, Chen Qiaoshan is not ready to miss this opportunity.
