Chapter 599 To know how to be grateful

In particular, Wang Ye said that the proportion of shares in the website remains unchanged. This time, Sergey does not need to pay, which is too generous!

Because normally, on Facebook, Wang Ye holds 80% of the shares and Sergey holds 20%.

In this second round of financing, if Wang Ye invests an additional 10 million yuan, Sergey will also need to come up with 2.5 million US dollars.

In this way, the share of the website can remain unchanged.

If Sergey does not pay, he needs to dilute his shares and recalculate according to the current valuation of the website.

Maybe his shareholding will shrink directly to 10% or even lower!

So Sergey was quite surprised, he didn't expect Wang Ye to be so generous.

But after hesitating, he shook his head and said:

"Mr. Mikhail, this is not suitable. It is with your investment that Facebook can really start. Otherwise, it is estimated that it is only limited to the large campus network, and few people know about it.

With the investment of one million dollars, Facebook became formalized and grew rapidly.

What's more, the lottery activity you engaged in this time has directly caused the popularity of the website to skyrocket several times.

I know very well that you are using your own resources to support the development of Facebook.

For this company, you actually do more than me!

When I first invested, I already took a lot of advantage in the shares.

Now the second round of financing, I don't pay a penny, and keep the shares from being diluted, it's really a bit unreasonable

Wang Ye was quite satisfied with Sergey's remarks.

He can be generous in his shares, so that the founder of the website Sergey holds a sufficient proportion of shares, so that after several rounds of financing, the founder will become a wage earner...

However, Sergey must know how to be grateful, and he must also understand that although this website was founded by him, in fact, it was him, Mikhail, who made this website successful!

Now Sergey's words show that he is a reasonable and grateful person.

Then, handing over Facebook to such a person would make Wang Ye feel more at ease.

He smiled and said calmly: "I said, when we wait for the next round of financing, just follow the rules. This round is still our internal chase investment. I am more optimistic about this project, so I am willing to do it again. Chase a sum of money. Wait for the next round of financing, and external funds may be introduced.

For Facebook, Wang Ye does have great expectations.

Even more important than MAIL.RU and YANDEX that have been acquired!

Because those two websites are much bigger than Facebook, but their potential is not great!

It is almost impossible to go to the world.

Because whether it is a portal website, a search engine, or an e-mail, there are better choices in Laomei!

In the final analysis, these two websites are also "imitation and borrowing" from Laomei's side, and in terms of technical strength, they are not comparable to others.

But Facebook is different.

This website has his unique innovations. At present, it is the only one in the world!

There is no other website like it.

Moreover, this website does social media and self-media

These two categories are definitely the most promising and potential ones in the Internet industry.

Just look at the market value of Facebook in later generations.

This tens of millions of dollars in the follow-up investment is indeed a need for the development of the website, and secondly, it is also to buy Sergey's loyalty.

In the face of the sincerity given by Wang Ye, Sergey couldn't refuse.

After all, he has also invested all his efforts in Facebook, and naturally he does not want to become an insignificant minority shareholder.

Now that he has met such a generous and generous boss as Wang Ye, it is really his luck!

So, when he got up to say goodbye, Sergey kept thanking

Wang Ye and Sergey were chatting, Rosiana watched the whole process.

After Sergey left, she rolled her eyes and said to Wang Ye with a smile, "Misha, this Facebook is going to have a second round of financing now?"

Wang Ye nodded and said nothing.

Rosiana hurriedly said: "I feel, this round of financing is not enough for 10 million yuan. Didn't you say that you want to develop Facebook abroad, but that requires a lot of money. Do you want to bring in some more investment? , I can help with that."

Wang Ye looked at Rosiana amusingly and asked, "You don't think I can get more money?"

Rosiana is at a loss for words. Indeed, in terms of wealth, in Russia, there may not be many people who are higher than Wangye!

Even if the assets of their family and the entire family add up, it is hard to say whether there is more Wangye alone...

If Facebook needs more funds, Wang Ye doesn't need anyone else to do it at all, he can handle it all by himself!

Don't forget, the acquisition of the three major auto brands just cost $4.2 billion.

But the company account of the Russian Automobile Group still has the remaining funds of 800 million US dollars...

This money has nowhere to spend for now!

After muttering for a long time, Wang Ye couldn't hear what Rosiana was saying.

But he didn't care, he just went about his business.

After a while, Rosiana came over again, put a smile on her face, and said flatteringly: "Boss, if Facebook refinances next time, can you let me participate?"

Wang Ye raised his head, looked at her, and asked calmly, "The next round of financing is a matter of tens of millions of dollars. It is estimated that it will cost hundreds of millions. How much can you give?"

Rosiana quickly patted her chest and said, "It depends on how much the boss asks me to vote! I can eat as much as you give me."

This girl has a lot of appetite...

Wang Ye smiled and asked with great interest, "Is your family wanting to take a stake in Facebook?"

Rosiana was stunned, but she responded calmly: "Yes, didn't I do that lottery show on TV a few days ago? Then someone in my family contacted me and said they were interested in this Facebook network. See if you can invest in it.

Wang Ye nodded slightly. This is normal. Although the Rosiana family is mainly engaged in the communication industry, after making more money, they must diversify their investments.

This can reduce the risk.

Although many companies have closed down in the Internet industry in the past few years, some excellent websites have survived and developed better and better.

The acquisition of the two websites by Wangye is like this. Obviously, the Rosiana family is also interested in the Internet.

I just saw Facebook, a rising star, and Rosiana's relationship, so I wanted to try to see if there was a chance to invest in it.

He thought about it for a while, and said cheerfully: "This round has no chance, wait for the next round, you will be counted in then, just prepare the money in advance!"
