Technology Bigshot Chapter 9: : Valuation

Chapter 9: Valuation

In the parking lot, the people in the limousine stepped down one after another. A tall and strong black bodyguard opened the door, and then a young man in a gray T-shirt came out.

"Don't tell me it was Zuckerberg who got out of the car!"

"I swear by your little brother, it's definitely Zuckerberg."

"My God, Xiao Zha came to Tsinghua suddenly? Why is there no news?"

The students in the school were stunned when they saw it. Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of Facebook, the world's top richest man, for Tsinghua students, almost no one does not know the reputation of Xiao Zha. Zuckerberg was once hailed as the Jack Ma of the United States by Chinese people. There are too many admirers of him even in China.

"Hello!" Zuckerberg walked on the road, waving kindly to the students and greeting them in Chinese.

"Zha is waving to me! He's smiling at me!"

"I'm short of breath!"

"Amazing!"

Zuckerberg speaks Chinese. Although there are some changes in pronunciation, the listeners can understand it. Along the way, Xiao Zha showed people with a friendly and approachable face, without any pretense of super rich.

Although the students were surprised by Zuckerberg's surprise visit, they did not rush to take a group photo or sign autographs, nor did they form a trend of crowds watching. Everyone was just standing there surprised. Watch, then watch Xiao Zha go away

After all, this is a famous institution of higher learning in the country, and the students are very self-conscious and did not cause confusion. However, it exploded in the campus forum, and the home page was basically filled with news posts about Xiao Zha's visit.

The news that Zuckerberg suddenly came to Tsinghua University in Beijing went viral in an instant, and the whole university became extremely lively after Jack Ma left.

The news of what happened in Tsinghua University soon spread outside the school. Zuckerberg came to China, and the reporters who heard the news had rushed to Tsinghua University. There was no way. Zuckerberg was not only young, but also a super rich man. He is the founder of a world giant company. Such a celebrity with such a huge influence suddenly came to China. There must be big news in it. This is the first thought of every reporter. You must know that the news of Facebook's return to China has continued recently. continuously.

"Mr. Zuckerberg, why did you come to visit suddenly? No matter what, you have to inform the school to get ready." The school leader shook hands eagerly with him and said at the same time.

"I'm in a hurry, I'm sorry to cause trouble for your school." Zuckerberg smiled and shook hands with him, apologetically.

"No trouble! No trouble! Hehehe, Mr. Zuckerberg's Chinese amazes me." The school leader said with a smile.

"Really? Thank you so much for your affirmation." Zuckerberg smiled in surprise.

"Mr. Zuckerberg, please!" the school leader motioned.

Not long after Zuckerberg's sudden visit, the media immediately released a briefing.

"The famous social network giant, Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg was surprised to see Tsinghua University - "Sina Express""

"Mark Zuckerberg appeared in Beijing, Facebook is about to return to China? - "NetEase News""

"Xiao Zha came to China, Facebook has secretly begun to deploy in Greater China? - "Sohu Express""

For a while, major media reported the news one after another, and the news of Mark Zuckerberg's visit to China quickly spread on the Internet and abroad.

Xiao Zha's sudden visit to China surprised many people. For such a powerful person, their every move will be interpreted and paid attention to by the outside world, and even over-interpreted. Obviously, such a giant will never make such a move. simple behavior.

In the school's reception room, Zuckerberg and the school leaders are discussing. Foreigners really don't like to be around the corner. Xiao Zha said immediately: "Sir. I heard that there is a start-up company called XlouS in your school. I wonder if it can be done. Tell me where this company is? No thanks."

"Eh! XlouS?" The school leader was taken aback. It turns out that Zuckerberg's visit was for a start-up company?

"XlouS? Let me think about it." The school leader was silent for a moment, and soon a message appeared in his mind, he looked at Xiao Zha and said, "I remember, this company is the first company of our school. A college student has just founded it, and recently a product launched by XlouS is quite popular in the school, what is it called? Oh, yes, it should be called instant online translation.”

"Yes." Zuckerberg responded repeatedly: "Can you tell me the contact information of the founder of XlouS, sir?"

"Contact information? No problem, I will notify him immediately." The school leader thought about it and said as it should.

"No no no! You said his company's office address is at the school, and I want to meet him in person." Zuckerberg said quickly.

The school leaders were very surprised when they heard it. Obviously, Zuckerberg could be so urgent. It seems that the instant online translation created by this student is an amazing product.

You know, Zuckerberg is a world celebrity, a social giant, and a super-rich.

No way, Zuckerberg got anxious after seeing the instant online translation for the first time, which is an application that can take Facebook further, and it is also an application that can pose a fatal threat to Facebook. He believes that his competitors must have the same idea as him, why not hurry? Zuckerberg wouldn't be at ease when he knew about the app, and it wasn't finalized.

Zuckerberg felt inappropriate for the way the school leaders made orders. In order to respect the other party and express his sincerity, he decided to go to Ren Hong in person.

Not long after that, Zuckerberg, accompanied by school leaders, walked to Building 003 in Beicao.

"What is Xiao Zha doing?" When the students in the school saw this scene, they took out their mobile phones to record videos or take pictures.

At this moment, in the corridor of classroom 317, people from Sequoia Capital and IDG Technology Venture Fund are hostile to each other. The so-called peers are enemies.

Ren Hong met with both parties again, but XlouS currently does not have a formal office address and reception room. The meeting place can only be in the corridor. Fortunately, this teaching building has not been put into use, and only they exist here. But those present don't care about the environment. Obviously, Ren Hong is at the top. At this moment, capital is looking for him, not him. This is very important. It determines who is the leader in the negotiation between the two parties.

"What is Mr. Ren's valuation of the company?" said the head of Sequoia Capital.

"35 billion!" Ren Hong said indifferently. In Room 317, Zhang Han and the others pricked up their ears. When they heard 35 billion, everyone's heart beat.

"US dollars!" Ren Hong emphasized.

"Brothers, $35 billion, do you hear that?" Chen Kai said excitedly.

"Shut up! Be quiet, it's not the first time you've heard it, keep listening." Zhang Han said angrily.

In the corridor, the head of Sequoia Capital, Li Taosheng and others were slightly surprised when they heard 35 billion, but it was reasonable, and it was impossible for them to see the value in it. But they were taken aback when the last dollar was spoken.
