Wang Liu nodded, and it was true that Changfeng's start-up capital was only more than 500 million. Before investing in Acorns and Hechuang, more than 200 million were thrown out of two investments. Just now, Zhou Zhixiong said that he had made an appointment with someone to discuss things. Eighty percent of the project was to invest in another project, and another one was thrown out, and only half of the start-up capital of more than 500 million was left.

Funds are tight and the normal business will not be easy to carry out in the future. It is time to find a way to recover your health.

As for the two investments in Acorn and Hechuang, it is difficult to see returns in a short period of time, so they can only find another way, and Tiansheng is a good choice.

Now that new stocks are listed, the stock price will generally rise. Tiansheng has the excellent performance of both e-commerce and gaming businesses as support, and behind it is social, search and other businesses as backing, so the stock price will definitely increase even more.

Zhou Zhixiong only needs to subscribe to the next stock, and after the stock price rises after it goes public, he can return to the previous blood steadily after selling it.

He gave all the outsiders such as Wen Yanqi and Jiang Chengyu, and Zhou Zhixiong, who wanted to subscribe to him, would not to mention it.

Wang Liu said directly: "How many stocks do you want to subscribe to?"

Zhou Zhixiong said: "What is the issuance price?"

"The issuance range is tentatively set to 22.2 to 24.2. If nothing unexpected happens, the issuance price should be 24.2." He Jiayi returned casually.

“24.2…”

Zhou Zhixiong pondered for a moment and said, "Then I will subscribe to five million shares."

Five million shares, 24.2 per share, that is 121 million Hong Kong dollars. At present, the exchange rate of Hong Kong dollars against the RMB is basically the same, which is equivalent to more than 120 million RMB.

It probably didn't put all the remaining funds on Changfeng.

Although Wang Liu is confident that Tiansheng's stock price will rise after listing, no one knows what the result will be before the result comes out. If it really falls, it will be backfire.

Not only will the blood not be restored, but all the funds that have been squeezed in will be trapped, so the company's situation is really embarrassing.

It's good to be stable.

Wang Liu smiled and looked at He Jia and said, "I need about 6.2 million shares in total. Add Lao Zhou's, please leave me 20 million shares."

Wen Yanqi, Jiang Chengyu and others booked a total of 6.2 million shares. I don’t know if anyone would come to him to go through the back door. To be safe, it would be better to just ask He Jiayi for more points at one time.

"Okay." He Jiayi agreed readily.

Zhou Zhixiong immediately smiled with satisfaction, raised his glass to toast Wang Liu and He Jia.

After chatting for a few moments, Wang Liu suddenly remembered and said, "You just said that you had an appointment with someone to discuss things. Is it a business matter in the company?"

"right."

Zhou Zhixiong said: "I recently found another investment target, with good performance in all aspects, and have launched an IPO plan and are preparing to go public in the United States. If you can invest, you will get a return soon, which is just right for us.

I asked someone to help contact their boss and made an appointment to talk about investment."

Wang Liu suddenly became interested and asked, "Are you going public? What company? What business does it do?"

Zhou Zhixiong said: "It's still an Internet company, called Ctrip, which does online ticketing service business, sells air tickets, train tickets, etc. online."

Ctrip?

Wang Liu blinked and felt a little happy inexplicably. The company was established for so long that he finally encountered a company that was familiar to later generations!

Although it is only limited to hearing the name and occasionally buying tickets on it, and I don’t know much about the specific situation of Ctrip, but being able to survive to the future is still firm, at least it proves that Ctrip is a good goal.

If you can make a purchase, you will never lose.

Wang Liu asked: "How is the talk? Is there any chance to invest?"

Zhou Zhixiong looked dark and shook his head and said, "I'm not optimistic. Ctrip has a financing plan, but it's not very urgent. After all, he has planned an IPO. Even if he can't raise money, he can go to the stock market to raise money later.

Their plan is to raise money before the IPO and let shareholders get some cash first. At the same time, they can also use the introduced new shareholders to enhance the company's international reputation and pave the way for the IPO in advance to facilitate subsequent listing.

Therefore, their ideal investors must have overseas backgrounds and have a certain influence overseas.

Our company...well, it doesn't quite meet their standards."

I understand, this is despised by him.

Wang Liu's joy just now disappeared in an instant, leaving only a heart full of depression. It was rare to meet a good seedling he had heard of, but he was disliked by the other party and didn't even want to give money...

It's depressing to think about it.

But there is no way. For its own interests, Ctrip wants to find an investment institution with overseas influence to join the market, help them enhance their international influence and pave the way for IPOs, which is completely reasonable.

Changfeng, let alone overseas, has no influence in China at present, and does not meet Ctrip's requirements, and it is understandable that it is rejected.

This is the most depressing thing.

He was obviously disliked, but he had nothing to say...

While depressed, Wang Liu was a little frustrated, and finally couldn't help but curse: Wait for me, invest in you now, you will ignore it, and I will definitely make you taller in the future...

high?

Wang Liu subconsciously glanced at He Jiayi, and suddenly felt that Changfeng had no influence in the international field and did not meet Ctrip's requirements, so his investment was rejected.

But Goldman Sachs meets it!

With Goldman Sachs' size, it is more than just influential overseas. To put it in an exaggeration, it is not an exaggeration to call the wind and rain in the world of capital.

Didn’t Ctrip want to introduce an investment institution with overseas influence to increase the company’s popularity and pave the way for IPO?

Changfeng’s family does not meet their requirements, but if they can attract Goldman Sachs to invest, it should be true?

He Jia's heart suddenly jumped when Wang Liu looked at him: "Why is Mr. Wang looking at me like this?"

"You have heard what Lao Zhou said just now. Ctrip has good performance and plans to go public soon. It is a good goal. You are also investing. Are you interested in it? Why don't we invest in it together?" Wang Liu invited seriously.

Zhou Zhixiong instantly understood and looked at He Jiayi happily, and then advised: "Yes, why did I forget you, Jiayi? We don't meet the requirements of Ctrip, but you do it, why do we do this investment together.

Ctrip's performance is really good. It was established in 1999 and achieved profits last year, with a net profit of US$1.7 million. This year, it further expanded to 3.5 million, more than doubled, and its growth was very strong.

In addition to the online ticketing business, Ctrip is also preparing to launch a new business, online hotel reservations, which is another growth point and the prospects will be better in the future."

He Jiayi was a little moved when he was said, but he did not agree directly. After pondering for a moment, he spoke: "Old Zhou, I can still believe your vision, but to be honest, I have never paid attention to Ctrip before and don't know much about it. I'm afraid I can't reply to you for the time being. I have to wait for me to come back to understand it before I can give you a reply."

Investing is not a joke, it is normal to be cautious. Wang Liu and Zhou Zhixiong both understood and nodded and said:
Chapter completed!
