Chapter 322 The B Round Is in Place

Duffy seldom admires a young man, and seldom expects one thing as he expects the composition of these two words.

When she thought that one of these two songs should be written for her dearest sister Du Wei, she was so happy that she couldn't hide her excitement.

After reading the two lyrics, she immediately called Chen Ze back and blurted out, "Are these two songs a choice? I'll choose "The Year in a Hurry" for Xiaowei."

Chen Ze was stunned for a moment before realizing that he hadn't made it clear to her that Li Mu was going to write two songs for Du Wei this time.

So he smiled and said: "Both these two songs were written for Xiaowei, Li Mu meant to choose one song for the movie episode, and the rest of the song would be recorded at the same time, and then he'll be released after the movie is broadcast. Put it on YiTing.com and push it."

Du Fei asked him in surprise: "Really? Why is Li Mu so generous? Both songs are for Xiao Wei?"

Chen Ze coughed twice and said, "I have a very good relationship with Li Mu. After I told him about this last time, he was very concerned, so he directly wrote two songs that he had already composed and planned to keep for himself. Give the song to Xiaowei, otherwise, how can you get two high-quality songs in such a short time."

It stands to reason that this kind of deliberate application of credit should not have been done by a mental person like Chen Ze, but no matter how smart a man or woman is, in the face of true love, their IQ and EQ may drop to zero, just like He is now like this, and his overall performance is more like a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy.

But Duffy took his love. After all, he helped himself to solve his request in a perfect way that exceeded his expectations many times. She really wanted to ask for a good song for her sister, but she didn't expect two songs. Judging from the lyrics, one of the two songs is a good song that meets expectations, and a good classic song that greatly exceeds expectations.

So, Du Fei said gratefully: "Chen Ze, you are so interesting, I didn't say anything, I will definitely thank you after returning to China!"

This is what Chen Ze said when he was busy before and after. He felt extremely satisfied, hehe said with a smile: "You are satisfied, you don't have to be so polite to me. Did you say that you will be back in early February last time? When exactly? Are you sure?"

"Not yet." Duffy said: "There have been a lot of things happening in the office recently. It is estimated that it will not be determined until the end of the month when I can leave."

Chen Ze then said: "I think you should resign and return to China. What is there to mess around in the United States? It's so far away from home, and it doesn't necessarily mean that you can really develop."

Du Fei smiled and said: "In the end, I will return to China for development, but the modern architectural design in China is far worse than that in the West. If I return to China for development,

There is very little room for improvement in personal vision and ability. I want to learn more experience before going back. "

Chen Ze asked her, "How long will it take?"

Duffy said: "Three or five years, I'm still young anyway."

Chen Ze changed the law to comfort him: "But you are always floating outside like this. Uncles and aunts must miss you very much. They definitely want you to stay by their side."

Duffy said: "If I were the only one in my family, then I might not be able to stay abroad for even a month, but isn't there Xiaowei at home? She also goes to school at the door of her house, and she didn't go far. Her parents are with her. , I'm more relieved, besides, my parents haven't planned to retire yet. They are still busy with business every day, and they don't need my company very much. I will seize the time to improve myself while they are still in their prime. , and when they are old, go back and be by their side."

Du Fei's words are reasonable, Chen Ze couldn't find a point to refute after listening to it for a long time, so he sighed and said, "Wait when you come back and talk about these things, and tell me in advance when you will come back, and I will pick you up at the airport. In addition, my mother is always nagging about you, saying that you must go home for dinner when you return to China."

Du Fei smiled and said, "Tell me, Aunt Xie, I will definitely visit her at home when I go back. I also want to eat the sweet and sour pork tenderloin she made, which is simply the best sweet and sour pork tenderloin in the world."

Chen Ze was overjoyed: "That's settled. I'll tell her this when I look back. She must be very happy."

Du Fei responded: "Okay, oh yes, there is one more thing, have you asked Li Mu when will you be able to help Xiaowei record these two songs?"

Chen Ze said: "Li Mu means that he can complete the composition before the weekend. He will call Xiaowei over the weekend to let her familiarize himself with the song. If there is no problem, he will enter the recording studio next week."

Duffy said excitedly: "Go buy a digital recording pen, I can't wait for the version recorded in the recording studio, you can help me record when Xiaowei is auditioning on the weekend, and then send me the recorded mp3 file. ."

"Okay, I'll buy it later."

...

On Friday afternoon, Xu Jiaming and Chen Ze came to Muye Technology with their respective lawyers, preparing to sign the B round financing agreement of Muye Technology with Li Mu.

Round B financing is an extremely critical hurdle for Li Mu. At present, although Muye Technology has made Tieba and Happy Farm popular all over the country, the amount of funds on the book is only one million, and there is no huge amount of money coming in. In the future, it is impossible to sprint at all. After this B round of financing, Xu Jiaming's 80 million yuan went directly to Muye Technology's account. For Li Mu, this 80 million yuan was enough for him to go online.

After all, yy is the core pillar product of Muye Technology in the next five to eight years. As long as yy kills qq, it will immediately build a comprehensive ecological closed loop according to the trajectory of qq. Once made, the two aircraft carrier-class products will remain undefeated in the next two decades.

As for e-commerce, Li Mu's own arrangement is to start it after yy goes online. E-commerce is too troublesome, so he has to find a suitable partner. Ali's President Ma is now worth hundreds of millions, so it is unrealistic to find him. Besides, this person His skills are also top-notch. If you find him to cooperate in the field he is best at, you may not be able to plant good fruits in the end. However, Liu Yingdong and Brother Liu are not a big man now. If you can fool him, you can start Taobao. .

As for his future Goudong, the order of magnitude is still much worse than that of Taobao. If he can cooperate, he should guide him to become Taobao first.

In the conference room, Li Mu brought Lin Qingya and a legal partner on his side to finalize the contract template with Xu Jiaming, Chen Ze, and their lawyers. The specific financing details are: Xu Jiaming invests in five companies in the name of Mingcheng Capital. Ten million, accounting for 5% of the shares, and then invest 30 million in his own name, accounting for 3% of the shares, Chen Ze used a shell company in his mother's hands to invest 20 million, accounting for 5% of the shares, neither investor has privileges , when the company raises a new round of financing in the future, they will be diluted in the same proportion as other shareholders.

The three parties had no opinion on the contract. After signing the contract on the spot, the two arranged financial preparations to transfer money.

According to the normal financing process, the capital side is generally relatively strong, and will not give money immediately after signing the contract. Some even have to wait until the industrial and commercial department changes the shareholding structure before putting the money into the account in batches. However, Xu Jiaming and Chen Ze, right Li Mu's trust goes far beyond ordinary capital relations, so they asked the finance department to put the money into the account that afternoon.

80 million will go to the company's account, and 20 million will go to Li Mu's personal account after tax declaration.

After the contract was signed, Xu Jiaming and Chen Ze were about to leave. Before leaving, Chen Ze pulled Li Mu aside and whispered, "Don't forget to let Xiaowei audition for the weekend."

Li Mu nodded and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I know what I have in mind. I will contact you tomorrow."

After sending the two away, Li Mu called the core staff of Muye Technology to the conference room. Everyone sat in the conference room with excitement and kept their eyes fixed on the two contracts in Li Mu's hand. Everyone knew very well that they signed today. The B round financing agreement was reached, but everyone was still waiting for Li Mu to announce the good news.

Holding two thick financing agreements, Li Mu trembled in his hand, and said in high spirits: "Our B-round financing has been completed, and the 80 million cash will be credited before going off work today. From today, the company will enter the To the second stage of development!"

There was thunderous applause in the conference room.

The biggest pursuit of entrepreneurs is the valuation of the company in the capital market. Muye Technology has achieved a valuation of 800 million in half a year, which is almost a myth in the Internet field. Although this valuation was given some premium by Xu Jiaming, as long as the capital The fact that someone is willing to pay the bill proves the gold content of this valuation!

The applause gradually stopped, Li Mu also put down the contract, and said seriously to everyone sitting: "2002 is the most critical year for us, the battle for the foundation we launched against QQ has already begun to brew, and YY is now in full swing. What makes me most happy is that our Happy Farm has already achieved the accumulation and migration of user connections within such a short period of time. This will be the basis for our victory. Therefore, all responsible persons must know that we The focus of this year is that everything is based on rapid development. In the future team building, operation and promotion, don't worry about money anymore, but first consider efficiency! For these 80 million financing, we will make reasonable and efficient financing within one year of 2002. After burning out, start the C round of financing before burning out, and by that time, we will have become the leader in the field of instant messaging!"

Li Mu's words made everyone feel excited. When Li Mu first founded Yiting.com, the veteran employees never thought that Muye Technology could one day achieve such an amazing size. Li Mu's ideas are often very radical, but what he said They are being implemented one by one, and everyone is very convinced that after yy goes online, it will definitely replace QQ and become the number one instant messaging software in China. At that time, Muye Technology will really enter the stage of explosive development.

Li Mu said to Lin Qingya: "Qingya will continue to make good talent reserves for the company, find several headhunting companies with regular cooperation, and search for suitable talent information in the entire Internet industry. In addition, Lingyu must do a good job in team planning, and the technical team is ours. The foundation for survival in the future, I would rather have redundant staffing of the technical team at all times, and absolutely do not want to see the technical staff stretched out, understand?"

Lin Qingya and Kong Lingyu agreed very simply.

Li Mu added: "There is still one month before the Spring Festival. If I remember correctly, the Spring Festival should be on February 12th. Our financial department should be prepared to pay wages in advance, and the wages will be distributed around February 5th. Go on, all employees will get three year-end bonuses at the end of this year!"

The three-salary year-end bonus stunned the middle and senior leaders present. This way of giving year-end bonus is unimaginable for any industry in China, even state-owned enterprises and institutions with excellent treatment cannot do it. At the end of the year, the year-end bonus will be paid three times, and the Internet industry is even more unlikely now. I am afraid that it will make practitioners in the industry envious.

From the employee's point of view, a double salary at the end of the year is probably very satisfying, but with the rapid development of Muye Technology, the last thing Li Mu cares about is employee incentives. One Tesla per person has touched Li Mu quite a lot. It is not because he is jealous that others can have such good luck, but he feels that it is a rare thing for a boss to be willing to distribute profits to employees. Compared with Under the circumstance, Internet companies have the most stingy bosses, leaving aside those big bosses, especially in Internet start-up companies, nine out of ten bosses and eight pitfalls, such a company, no matter how awesome it is in the early stage, but because Can't keep people's hearts, basically can't escape the curse of death in round C.

Just when everyone hadn't digested the great news of the three-pay year-end bonus, Li Mu added: "After the Lunar New Year, the company will formulate an outstanding contribution award. The employees who contribute will be rewarded. In addition, I will personally take a certain percentage of the shares as employee options, so everyone must work hard. If you work hard in 2002, the company will have to have 50% of the people become millionaire.”

After finishing speaking, Li Mu said to Lin Qingya: "Qingya, remember, you don't need to buy a car first, but you can start with ten suites, just in Zhongguancun, a house of about 100 square meters and a unit price of about 600,000, look for a suitable new one. Real estate, buy ten sets in the name of the company."

There was a cheer in the conference room. As the boss, Li Mu is indeed generous enough. In addition, he is indeed capable of leading everyone to grow rapidly, so employees can easily feel a sense of belonging to such a boss.

The ten houses are only six million, which is nothing to the current Muye Technology, but once these ten houses are bought, the incentive for employees will be unimaginable. I didn’t seize the opportunity when the housing price was low, but it was just self-comfort. As a top-tier first-tier city in China, the housing price of Yanjing has been difficult for ordinary working class to afford since it entered two thousand years. Although the housing price is cheaper than ten years later, the income is also lower than ten years later. It can be said that any time you want to take root in Yanjing, the house is the biggest gap.

There are only a few dozen people in Muye Technology. There are ten houses there, and everyone has a good chance of getting a house. Li Mu wants to send a signal: as long as the employees of Muye Technology work hard, they will have a chance to get a house in 2002. Rooted in Yanjing. (To be continued.)
