Chapter 28 Pie in the Sky

If we calculate carefully, Tongcao Technology can earn a relatively stable income of about 15 million per month through open source and outsourcing, but the monthly expenses of Technology Deep Throat are about 1 million.

Investment banks are different from traditional investment banks. These projects of their own are not screened and the quality is uneven.

It is impossible to have such a high investment rate. It is good if two out of a hundred companies can get financing.

There are 2,000 domestic startups in the library now. Assuming that a transaction is 5 million, the service fee is 1%, and the payment fee is 0.3%, which is 2.6 million.

Even if the angel project investors make decisions quickly, it is estimated that the transaction may not be completed in one month, let's say two months.

Although the number of new companies added to the project library every month in the future should exceed 2,000 companies, but overall, if the investment bank continues to do angel rounds and PreA rounds, it is estimated that the annual income is only 20 to 30 million.

Therefore, if this business model wants to expand the revenue scale, it still needs to do mid- and late-stage projects with large transaction amounts. This requires professional talents, so let's develop slowly first.

After all the calculations, this amount of money is far from enough for investment.

At least with Cao Shen's current qualifications, it is not possible to raise funds for a fund. There is no successful investment case, and the sponsor does not approve.

So in the early stage, you still have to find a way to make money yourself and use your own funds to invest in projects.

To vigorously promote their own "Tongfubao", the conditions are even less mature. First, there are not so many payment scenarios now, and second, promoting payment requires money.

Haven't you seen how crazy the two payment companies were in their previous life to snatch users?

Not to mention their respective bases, one has WeChat and the other has Taobao, which are already a huge number of users.

For new payment scenarios, they also spare no effort to provide ammunition.

Taxi scene, smash!

Shared bicycles, burn!

Takeaway payment, invest!

Spring Festival Gala red envelopes, do it!

Cao Shen can't afford this little bit of steel in his pocket...

So, is there any other way to make money?

"System, do you have any other tools you can exchange? The kind that can make money."

[Yes, I have a lot of things, but the host has 16 days left to live, you can't afford it. ]

"Don't you have any cheaper ones? What's the one with the lowest life value?"

[The cheapest one is a game editor, but it also needs 180 days of life.]

The game is good, there is cash flow!

"Can I buy it on credit?"

[No, it's instant goods.]

Cao Shen originally asked tentatively, but he didn't expect that it was almost the same as he expected. The system really has other good things.

It's like a shopping mall, but the currency for exchange is your own life value.

I was forced to exchange the "website editor" for 45 days of life before. If it weren't for the "open source" operation, and coaxing the system to make an instant messaging application, plus outsourcing business, this "website editor" would be a worthless thing.

According to the system's value assessment of its own "goods", the "game editor" requires 180 days of life to exchange, so at least the system thinks this thing is more valuable.

Cao Shen is a little looking forward to it. He wants to exchange this!

So, he continued to work hard and diligently on "Cao Shen Lai Lai", saving lives bit by bit. ׺°”˜˜`”°º×

According to the plan, the investment bank's press conference was scheduled on the 14th day of the first lunar month, which is February 13th.

Once the investment banking business is launched, he will be able to continue a relatively large amount of life, and strive to get this "game editor" in April!

Liu Jun was studying the future technical direction of the company at this time, and at this time, the phone rang.

At a glance, it was Zhang Beixin.

"This girl is really polite..."

Thinking that Zhang Beixin came to thank him specially, he picked up the phone.

"Hello, Mr. Liu, I am Zhang Beixin, thank you for helping me move the car."

"You're welcome, it's a small matter."

"It's like this, our Mr. Cao met you today and was very impressed. He wants to invest in Bianhe Semiconductor..."

Liu Jun was still a little confused until he put down the phone.

Cao Shen had only met him once, and the two didn't even say a few words in a few minutes, and they were going to invest?

There is such a good thing?

Although Liu Jun still didn't dare to believe this kind of "love at first sight" pie in the sky.

But it was so gratifying to receive investment intentions at this point in time!

No need to wait for another half a year, no need to worry about variables.

What's more, this investor is Cao Shen!

Cao Shen, who has the most advanced file compression technology!

This is the one he wants to cooperate with the most and ask for advice the most!

So, Liu Jun did not hesitate and immediately agreed to 5 million US dollars for 20% of the shares, immediately agreed to Cao Shen's veto power, and also gave him a board seat.

When he sent the NDA and company information to Zhang Beixin, he still felt that happiness came too suddenly, and he didn't dare to believe it, and he was still dizzy.

He didn't sleep well for two consecutive days, until the morning of the third day, he received the "Investment Intent Letter" sent by Zhang Beixin.

The whole person is at ease...

Mr. Cao, this person doesn't talk much.

It seems that he doesn't like socializing, a technology geek!

This is very similar to myself when I first entered the society. I was focused on studying technology, couldn't talk, stayed at home, and didn't like dealing with people.

But later, for the company, he had to go out and sell, and had to learn to deal with people.

Slowly I practiced it and got used to it.

So, thinking back to Cao Shen, Liu Jun thought of himself back then.

There was a feeling of mutual appreciation.

And this person would become his shareholder in the future and would sit on the same boat with him.

Let's discuss the future development of the company, technology, and products together.

The more Liu Jun thought about it, the more excited he became. This feeling was damn good!

At this time, Cao Shen was looking at the materials of Bianhe Semiconductor. He had read the company's business plan and financial report over and over for the third time.

Pulling his hair, he propped up his head and thought hard.

What on earth did the system like about it?

In the future, he wanted to make money by investing. Although the system had "loopholes", he needed to fill these "loopholes" with his life.

If he wanted to "shorten his life", he must really master investment skills and reduce the risk of always rubbing on the edge.

So, he had to study and learn.

Bianhe was the first project he invested in. This was a case study that needed to be studied carefully.

After thinking about it, he felt that he still needed to go to Bianhe for a field investigation.

But now he really didn't have the time, so he could only put it aside for now.

Recently, he has to make an "investment banking website". The system will only generate a "webpage" for him, but he still has to design the specific functions and how the various functional modules interact with each other.

It can be said that Cao Shen is doing the work of a product manager, and the system is responsible for technical implementation.

In theory, a product manager can be found to do this, but no one has ever done the investment banking business matching system before.

It took a long time to explain to the new product manager, and the various communication costs were not as efficient as doing it by himself.

However, this also made Cao Shen realize that he had to recruit people.

Product managers and future game planners, he had to pay attention to talents in this area!

Then came the "voting" activity. Cao Shen looked at the already set "scheduled delivery" and raised his mouth.

Dear friends, get excited!
