Volume 3: Taking Roots 2016 Chapter 537: Double Investment
In Shanghai, in an old restaurant serving local cuisine.
Since they have come to this small piece of land in Shanghai, it is naturally impossible for Zhou Dongsheng to make an appointment with Huang Zheng. After all, Pinxixi has been developing secretly and its momentum is very strong.
"You are such a troublemaker. I've only been focusing on developing Pinxixi, but I didn't expect you to cause so much trouble. You are really a troublemaker!"
Huang Zheng gave a thumbs up and expressed his sincere admiration. Gu Pinpin on the side covered his mouth and smiled, then took over the conversation and teased: "If we talk about trouble, Dongsheng and you are actually the same kind of people, so the two of you should stop making fun of each other..."
"I am far worse than Brother Huang. Brother Huang is an entrepreneur, and each project is more successful than the last..." Zhou Dongsheng waved his hands and the two businessmen started praising each other.
Huang Zheng pointed his index finger at Zhou Dongsheng and shook it, "Look, look, you only know how to put me down. When I was your age, I was still studying in America and had just met Teacher Duan..."
"Unlike you, you have already achieved success in your career at such a young age. Your future is limitless. No wonder Brother Ding and Mr. Duan are so optimistic about you." Huang Zheng sighed.
"That's all thanks to your introduction, Brother Huang, otherwise I wouldn't be able to marry you." Zhou Dongsheng took the opportunity to flatter her.
The two of them couldn't help but smile at each other, and decided to stop here. Their friendship had come to this point, and any further pleasantries would seem awkward .
"This advertising bidding thing you've put together is quite eye-catching. How about I take part in it and show my face..." Huang Zheng said sarcastically.
"Based on our portrait of Papi Jiang's fans, although the fan base is highly concentrated in female users, they tend to be younger..."
"Although we have positioned her advertising monetization in the two popular fields of e-commerce and beauty, it is still not compatible with our Pinxixi's sinking market, otherwise I will not let the fat water flow to the fields of outsiders!"
Zhou Dongsheng said with a smile that Pinxixi is now a dormant dragon in the abyss, thriving in the sinking market and does not need any phenomenal exposure to boost it.
The social fission generated by
"Oh? I didn't expect that although our investors are very busy, they still care about Pinxixi. I would like to take this opportunity to report to you, the investor, on the recent progress of Pinxixi..."
Huang Zheng then made a joke, then changed the subject and said with pride that it was called a report, but in fact it was more of a show-off.
"In February, our monthly transaction volume 10 million, setting a new record for the platform. At the same time, with the help of a wave of consumption before the Spring Festival, the number of paying users has exceeded 20 million in one fell swoop!"
"In less than a year, our Pinxixi platform has already gone through the path that Chinese e-commerce has taken for ten years. Now we have only one goal left, which is to keep up with the development of the first echelon of e-commerce platforms..."
Huang Zheng looked , just like a parent showing off the brilliant achievements of his children.
Zhou Dongsheng clapped his hands in full cooperation. "Okay! I think there is absolutely no problem. As long as we always adhere to the correct path of developing the sinking market, the strategy of surrounding the cities from the countryside will be completed in no time."
"I think that focusing on poverty alleviation is inevitable in keeping with the trend of the times, and it will also be our winning hand in achieving overtaking on the curve..."
"After all, don't forget that we are a socialist country..."
Zhou Dongsheng revealed the reference answer to Huang Zheng in a slightly obscure way. This was not the first time he mentioned the word "poverty alleviation". He often mentioned it in daily communication with Huang Zheng.
The purpose is to subtly deepen this concept and make Huang Zheng realize the importance of this point. In fact, it is analyzed from the perspective of hindsight.
Zhou Dongsheng personally feels that Pinxixi’s success is also inseparable from the blessing of the tide of the times. In addition to taking advantage of the first year of mobile development, it is also inseparable from the general trend of the country.
Especially under the tone of achieving common prosperity and comprehensive well-off, Pinxixi's focus on the development of the sinking market undoubtedly caters to policy needs at the right time.
Anyone's success always relies on the tide of the times, and if you want to be above the times, the iron fist will hit you in the face without any ambiguity.
Zhou Dongsheng has never eaten pork, but he has certainly seen pigs run...
Huang Zheng didn’t actually take Zhou Dongsheng’s words seriously at first. After all, Zhou Dongsheng was old. How could such a young man have such a profound political sense?
However, when he talked to Mr. Duan several times and mentioned Zhou Dongsheng's statement, he did not expect that Mr. Duan would praise it highly and fully affirm Zhou Dongsheng's statement.
He also warned him meaningfully, "On this point, Zhou Dongsheng sees it more clearly than you. You should still have a little awe. The teacher is an experienced person and knows this better than you..."
Speaking of this, Duan Yongping couldn't help but sigh, after all, he had fallen into this trap in the past.
Huang Zheng could ignore Zhou Dongsheng's words, but since Mr. Duan emphasized it again and again, Huang Zheng had no choice but to take it seriously.
When Huang Zheng was developing the sinking market, he tasted the benefits of the policy and had to be convinced that Zhou Dongsheng was indeed good at this.
After a few pleasantries, Huang Zheng brought up Tengda's financing with great interest.
"The B round of financing has been almost finalized. Led by Tengda Investment and with the participation of two other investors, a financing of 120 million US dollars is planned. This means that the valuation of the Pinxixi platform has exceeded 1 billion US dollars..."
"If you want to take this opportunity to cash out, you can also consider selling some shares. After all, you are the largest external shareholder..."
Huang Zheng casually revealed this important news to investor Zhou Dongsheng. In fact, few investors would hold shares in a project from beginning to end.
The vast majority of investors will take advantage of every window of crazy growth to cash out.
After all, the capital market sometimes seems complicated, but in fact it is like a hand-held bomb game. No one knows whether this hand-held bomb will explode or when it will explode.
Once it explodes, there will always be an unlucky guy who becomes the last one to take the blame.
But before the explosion, no one thought they would be that stupid person.
"That won't do. I'm very optimistic about Brother Huang. This is just the beginning. At least we have to wait until the day when Pinxixi goes public before considering this issue."
Zhou Dongsheng said this confidently. Huang Zheng was delighted by this attitude, which really touched his heart.
"Just because of what you said, I will never let you down as an investor no matter what I say. You will definitely be the one to ring the bell when the company goes public..." Huang Zheng laughed heartily.
"Of course. I'm counting on you, Brother Huang, to help me broaden my horizons." Zhou Dongsheng said cheerfully.
At the same time, in a factory far away in Beijing, Hu Weiwei looked at the silver masterpiece in front of him with surprise. Although it was just a bicycle, the silver body and bright orange rims were hard not to be eye-catching.
After so much development and research, and spending millions of dollars on scientific research funds, Hu Weiwei finally got a work that satisfied her.
Such good news naturally needs to be shared with investors as soon as possible. Hu Weiwei took a photo and sent it to Lu Sifang of Dongsheng Investment.
