Chapter 773 Funding Dreams
The next morning, Feng Yu went out for a run and walked his dog by the way. In the community, he also met many people who might be neighbors, but they all kept Feng Yu at a respectful distance, because when Feng Yu ran, he also took two bodyguard!
Residents in the community already knew that a rich man, a shareholder and director of Microsoft, lived here. It seemed that such a rich man would not be a big deal with two bodyguards. [w.Sui Mеng.lā But since you are so rich, why don't you just buy a manor, why do you want to live with us?
In particular, what they couldn't understand was that this rich man was so young, and he was an oriental man. Everything revealed a mystery, and Feng Yu didn't know that he was already being targeted by many young women.
They don't have high demands, and they don't necessarily have to marry Feng Yu, even if they can only get in touch with Feng Yu, and then they are very satisfied with being famous through Feng Yu's contacts. The rumored girlfriend of a director of Microsoft, can it still be popular?
They saw that Feng Yu was running with a puppy, so they thought of the best way to strike up a conversation.
...
After breakfast, Ralph also came, gave an address, and asked the driver to drive there.
After getting out of the car, Feng Yu shook his head. This is Amazon, the second-ranked internet company in his previous life? It's too shabby, right?
He was curious, the office could be smaller, but what about the warehouse? Amazon sells books, always have stock. Isn't it claimed that there are hundreds of thousands of books to choose from on the Internet, so there should be at least tens of millions of books in stock, where are they placed?
As if seeing Feng Yu's doubts, Ralph explained in a low voice: "Boss, there is a storage area over there, which is rented by Amazon. Their books are stored there, and they are delivered twice a day at noon and night. .”
"Well, I see, let's go in."
A few people walked in, especially the bodyguard in a black suit, which made everyone in Amazon stunned. Who is this person, and what are they doing here?
"What's the matter with you?" the front desk asked.
"Go and inform your boss, Jeff, that the person he's waiting for is here," Ralph said.
Before the front desk called, Jeff walked quickly from the innermost office: "Is it Mr. Feng?"
When Jeff came to the side, Feng Yu stretched out his hand slowly, and put his hands on Jeff's: "Hello, I'm Feng."
"Mr. Feng,
Come inside please. Katie, make coffee. "
The moment he saw Feng Yu, Jeff was a little lost. Fortunately, he was a little far away from Feng Yu at that time, so Feng Yu didn't notice.
It was rumored that a director from the East came to Microsoft, and he was extremely young. They didn't take it seriously at first, but now he discovered that this rumor was actually true!
The East is indeed a mysterious place, there are such young people with such wealth!
"Mr. Feng, I heard from your secretary that you are interested in my company?" Jeff asked straight to the point.
Feng Yu looked at Jeff with a smile: "Not exactly. I'm not only interested in your company, but also in you. How did you come up with the idea of selling books online?"
"I am a person who likes books, but I found that although there are many kinds of books to choose from in bookstores, no bookstore can say that there are all kinds of books. Moreover, the people in bookstores cannot quickly find the books that customers want. books. I just want to build such a website, so that customers can find the books they are looking for as quickly as possible on my website, and I can provide customers with far more choices than ordinary physical bookstores.”
Ralph looked at Jeff in surprise, and then at the boss. How could this set of rhetoric be the same as what the boss said yesterday?
"Well, the idea is good, so according to your estimate, how long will it take for this Amazon to make a profit? And in the end, how much profit do you think it can achieve?"
"It takes five years to build a customer base and reputation, and it will start to make a profit after five years. The profit in a year will not be less than 10 million US dollars!" Jeff said confidently.
There was a disdainful expression on Ralph's face. It took five years to make a profit. Isn't the return on investment period too long? Five years later, the annual profit will only be 10 million U.S. dollars. This investment is only made by those old men who seek stability. The boss should be very disappointed.
Would a rich man like the boss waste his brains just to earn this little money? It seems that this investment is going to fail.
"Jeff, have you ever thought that your business plan is too conservative? It takes five years to start making a profit. The $10 million profit you mentioned is the highest time, right? What if you still can't make a profit after five years? ? Or the profit is only a few million dollars, so what do you do?" Feng Yu asked again.
Jeff is not afraid that Feng Yu will ask too many questions, but he is afraid that Feng Yu will not ask anything. The more you ask, the more interested you are.
"I am confident that we will be profitable in five years. As for the profit, I cannot guarantee this. But after our customer base matures, we can also sell peripheral products, everything related to books, such as bookmarks, pens, For example, stationery such as notebooks, and then expand a little bit.”
"So, what you want to do in the end is an online department store? Do you know how much it will cost? And how big is the risk?" Feng Yu crossed his legs. Sure enough, Amazon will still follow the trajectory of his previous life. Go ahead.
"No, it's just about books. Of course, if the user group is stable, it's not impossible to develop in other directions." Jeff said.
Feng Yu raised his eyebrows, he didn't want to be an online shopping mall, so the current idea is still immature. The online department store that appeared in the previous life is a product formed after a certain stage of development?
"How much is your company's registered capital? How many shareholders are there? Is there a board of directors?" Feng Yu asked.
"My company has a registered capital of 30 million U.S. dollars, 16 shareholders, and a board of directors. There are seven in total. I am the chairman."
The registered capital is only 30 million US dollars? That investment is not very high. Feng Yu has now planned to invest in this Amazon, even if it is just investing in this person, or using Amazon as an experiment, Feng Yu feels that it is not a loss.
"I'm very interested in your company and want to inject capital. Don't get excited. I'm not a venture capitalist. What I want is voting equity. You can convene a board meeting to discuss whether to accept my investment."
"Mr. Feng, may I ask how much you plan to invest?" Jeff tentatively asked.
"Three to five million is not too much, and three to five million is not too little. As I said, I am interested in the company, but I am more optimistic about you. I am here to help you realize your dreams!" Feng Yu began to give Jie Husband poured chicken soup.
Jeff was so moved by Feng Yu's words that he almost shed tears. Look at what people say, those greedy investors only know how to make money.
"Mr. Feng, I promise to convince the board of directors that I will give you an answer as soon as possible. Three days, within three days, I will give you a satisfactory answer!" (To be continued.)
