My Age of Investment

In fact, there is no need for YouTube to actively promote it. Users and the media are already spontaneously helping YouTube.

The object of their promotion is not actually YouTube, but Ronaldo.

"Ronaldo embarrassed on YouTube!"

"Fat Luo is old, and it's hard to beat the ball. There are videos on the YouTube, and there is the truth."

"The alien finally turned into an Earthling this time, kicked the ball into the neighbor's house, and smashed a piece of glass."

...

Media news, online forums are full of similar headlines and discussions.

There are now more than 100 million netizens in the United States, and people who go online every day are quick to learn the news.

Many people came to YouTube, and after watching Ronaldo's video, they registered a YouTube account and watched other videos.

Soon, these newly registered users were attracted by other videos on YouTube.

The number of users of YouTube is naturally skyrocketing, and with the help of this event marketing, a wave of traffic has been harvested.

A few days later, seeing that Ronaldo's popularity was about to pass, another user on YouTube began to upload a video collection of Ronaldo's goals, which reignited the popularity.

Why it's called an alien, because this guy's kicking skills are not like Earth people.

The newly uploaded video, although the picture is not particularly clear, but Fei Luo's various tricks, all kinds of exquisite passing and shooting, also make many users enjoy watching.

The initiator Xia Jingxing and Graham had a pleasant phone call.

"Mr. Graham, how is it? It took only a week for Mr. Ronaldo's video to reach more than 30 million views on YouTube, ranking among the top three most viewed videos on YouTube."

Graham is also quite satisfied with this data, and has also noticed the overwhelming discussions in the media and on the Internet.

In this incident, Nike also gained a very large brand exposure.

Although some users joked: Is it because of wearing Nike shoes that the feet are so "smelly".

But these can be ignored directly.

In short, Nike is getting real benefits.

"Darren, didn't you get brand exposure as well? There's talk of YouTube all over America right now."

Xia Jingxing laughed, "So I said it was a win-win situation for the three parties. Mr. Ronaldo gained fame, and the two of us gained brand exposure."

Graham smiled and said: "Okay, then we will let Mr Ronaldo shoot and upload as many videos as possible.

But should we negotiate the advertising contract again? "

Xia Jingxing frowned, "Isn't it reasonable to charge according to the amount of playback?"

"No no no, Darren, we also have "actors", can't you also profit from YouTube?"

Xia Jingxing cursed in his heart, this guy probably wants to prostitute YouTube.

"Actually, after such a time, YouTube doesn't need "actors" so much anymore.

you give us advertising fees,

We asked other users to help with Nike advertising, and the results were the same. "

Naturally, Xia Jingxing would not be pinched by the other party, his meaning was very clear, Fei Luo had already been used once.

Youtube actually doesn't need to ask Fei Luo to help with event marketing.

Even if you do it again, the effect will definitely not be much better.

Graham laughed dryly. "Okay, Darren, just do as you say. But I want us to sign an exclusivity agreement."

Xia Jingxing directly refused, "It is impossible to sign an exclusive agreement."

Graham: "We can add money."

Xia Jingxing: "It's not about money!"

Graham: "Add to ten million dollars."

Xia Jingxing: "How long was the contract signed?"

Graham said: "Let's sign for one year, and we have priority to renew the next year."

Xia Jingxing readily agreed.

The development of Facebook and YouTube is proceeding according to the established rhythm. Xia Jingxing walked to Vision Capital, which is not far from Facebook.

After three months of preparation, this small company with only 200 square meters no longer only has Liu Hai as an employee, but also has eight more people, some are responsible for industry research, some are responsible for specific trading, and some are responsible for finance Aspects.

The organizational structure has been initially established, and various positions have also been improved.

Xia Jingxing hadn't come over for a long time, and Liu Hai almost thought that the other party had forgotten the company.

Liu Hai called the team and got to know the big boss together.

Xia Jingxing looked at the eight employees, seven men and one woman, and after a few simple words, let them go to work.

Sitting in Liu Hai's independent office, Xia Jingxing chatted with the other party.

"Because the funds of the fund have not been fully received, all we have been doing now is basic research work."

Liu Hai smiled bitterly, "It feels too leisurely, and the staff below are about to have opinions."

Xia Jingxing said with a smile, "It's my fault, don't worry about the funds, all will be in place in the next few days."

Hearing this, Liu Hai's spirit was lifted, "That's great."

Xia Jingxing has been busy with YouTube recently, and he has no time to sell the shares of Amic.

The stocks in his hand finally passed the one-year lock-up period and can be sold all.

It's just that the stock price is not ideal, only more than 24 yuan.

However, if the fund is to start operating, it is waiting for his rice to be cooked.

After the stock is sold, it is operated in the form of a fund, which is actually the same.

If you do it right, you can make more money.

Suddenly thinking of someone, Xia Jingxing took out his mobile phone and dialed the other party's number.

"Andrew, Vision Capital is about to start its official operation, do you still want to get in the car?"

Andrew was a little confused. One million dollars was not a small amount for him.

Facebook's angel investment, although the book has a lot of profit, has not yet fallen into the pocket.

Spent a million dollars out, almost half of his savings.

But thinking of Xia Jingxing's repeated miracles, he soon made a decision.

"Okay, I'll be right over here."

Xia Jingxing and Liu Hai chatted in the office, waiting for Andrew.

Almost an hour later, Andrew came.

As soon as he entered the door, Andrew sat down carelessly on the sofa in Liu Hai's office, looked at it a few times, and joked, "It's a fund manager anyway, so it's time to decorate the office."

Liu Hai's office layout is relatively simple, except that Xia Jingxing only gave him $400,000 before and after, and he needs to save some money, he also feels that he has not achieved much so far, and he is not qualified to be greedy for pleasure.

Hearing what Andrew said, Liu Hai said generously: "Let's make money first, now it's pointless to pay attention to these things.

Anyway, I don't usually have anyone here. "

Andrew looked at Xia Jingxing, and began to make fun of him again: "You big boss is also stingy. With the benefits, the employees can work harder and be squeezed better by you!"

"Stop talking nonsense, vote or not?"

Xia Jingxing said solemnly, "My funds are about to be withdrawn from the stock market, and as soon as I enter Vision Capital, it will start closed operations.

Now is the last window of time if you're going to invest. "

"Put it."

Andrew looked proud, "When did I say not to vote, you forgot me."

Xia Jingxing smiled and did not care.

"Okay, you contribute $1 million, plus other people's $28 million, the total is $29 million, and I will contribute another $7.25 million, still accounting for 20% of the investment."

Andrew smiled and said, "It's only $36.25 million. Why don't you round it up and raise it to $40 million."

Xia Jingxing shook his head, he had other arrangements and did not dare to invest too much in hedge funds.

Because there is a three-year closed period, even if he is the boss, he cannot just take out the money from this fund.

He has to leave some leeway for himself, otherwise he will have to borrow money when he encounters a suitable investment opportunity.

They have already borrowed $10 million from Liu Jinhang, so it shouldn't be too easy to borrow.

Equity pledge, according to the popularity of Facebook and YouTube in the market, with a low pledge ratio, it is not difficult to get a loan.

It's just that the part of the equity pledged to First Securities has not been released from the pledge, and the pledge of shares is continued, which is not good for the company's follow-up financing, and there will be criticism at the shareholder level.

If Xia Jingxing, the actual controller and CEO, exploded his position, could not repay the loan, and the Facebook shares were auctioned, what would happen to the company? It is really not a good judgment.

At present, he is the core figure, and the future of the company is tied to him alone.

Shareholders must hope that he will not take any risks and make Facebook bigger and stronger.

Dispelling the thoughts in his mind, Xia Jingxing asked Liu Hai to bring over the "Partner Agreement" and urged Andrew to sign it quickly.

Before signing the agreement, Andrew glanced at Xia Jingxing and joked, "If you lose money, you have to take care of me, otherwise you won't be able to afford food."

"Hurry up and sign, it's really a loss of money...

Xia Jingxing paused and said with a smile, "I'll accompany you on the streets."

Andrew laughed, and after reading the agreement carefully, he signed his name.

In the next few days, Xia Jingxing began to sell shares of Amico.

According to the average price of 24.51 US dollars / share, 300,000 shares were reduced, and more than 7.3 million US dollars were obtained.

He then quickly wired $7.25 million into Vision Capital's fund account.

When he founded Vision Capital, he remitted two sums to Liu Hai totaling $400,000, and reduced his holdings by 20,000 shares. Counting the 300,000 shares he insisted on this time, he only held the last 760,000 shares of Amic. .

When the funds of 36.25 million US dollars were all received, the first phase of the Lixia Fund of Vision Capital finally began to operate.

In the conference room of Vision Capital.

Xia Jingxing played the PPT, and in addition to Liu Hai, there were eight other employees in the audience.

"In August, Google will go public!"

"In June, Penguin is listed in Hong Kong!"

"In May, Shanda will be listed on Nasdaq!"

Xia Jingxing made PPT with all the information of the three companies, and introduced the main business and industry status of the three companies, as well as his own analysis of the future prospects of the three companies.

"Besides Google, I'm not very familiar with the other two companies."

Liu Hai bluntly said that others in the United States are naturally unfamiliar with Chinese Internet companies.

Xia Jingxing said, "It's normal to be unfamiliar. What you need to do now is to collect and organize the information of these three companies."

"Oh, by the way, and also collect and sort out the information on Aimeco."

Liu Hai knew that Xia Jingxing had made a lot of money from Aimeike, and the funds contributed by the fund also came from the sale of this stock.

It's just that he didn't expect that there is still room for growth?

"Amy, are you sure you want to pay attention too?" Liu Hai asked.

Xia Jingxing nodded, "This company, which was released from bankruptcy protection at the beginning of this year, is currently undergoing market value restoration.

I believe that it will soon be able to return to the original share price position, or even exceed a lot. "

Liu Hai nodded, indicating that he had noted it down.

"Let's analyze these four stocks first. It's about quality, not more."

Xia Jingxing hurriedly ended the meeting and left the work to this group of people.
