Chapter 1030 (2/2)
……
Li Mu spent a noon plus half an afternoon in Muye technology Silicon Valley branch. During this period, 23 domestic and Lin Qingya received requests from capital to meet Li Mu. Li Mu was busy in the near future and the meeting was to be determined. Sequoia was more interesting. After Lin Qingya declined the company's request for meeting, Eric.Hanks In private Ding Zhenglin, who went with Li Mu, said he hoped that he could help Li Mu to have dinner.
But Li Mu refused directly because he was going to have a dinner with the employees of Muye technology branch. He came to the branch of Muye technology on the first day today. As a competent boss, he naturally took this opportunity to have a dinner party for the whole company, which would be considered as a group building for the American branchEric.Hanks Li Mu refused and didn't give up. He still hoped to make an appointment with Li Mu for a clear meeting time. Li Mu didn't put on airs this time, but he still didn't give up pretending to force him. He asked Ding Zhenglin to reply Eric.Hanks I have no schedule for the 20 minutes from 10:30 to 10:50 tomorrow morning. If he wants, he can come to Makino technology's office in Silicon Valley Meet yourself at the venue.
Eric.Hanks When I heard the news, I was shocked. Twenty minutes? What the hell is Li Mu doing? This is a large-scale financing of more than one billion dollars. Does Li Mu want to settle the matter of more than one billion dollars in 20 minutes?
To put it another way, it's a matter of billions of dollars. Let's not say that twenty minutes are fixed. Even if we use twenty minutes to discuss it, it seems that we don't pay much attention to it, right? What can be solved in 20 minutes?
But, Eric.Hanks Although he was dissatisfied, he promised to come down at once during the 20 minute meeting time, and confirmed with Ding Zhenglin several times, because in any case, he had to see Li Mu himself first.
So Eric.Hanks After locking in this time period, he began to think about two things:
first, what kind of companion gift should Li Mu get when he meets Li Mu at Muye science and technology tomorrow? He knows that Chinese people pay attention to reciprocity. It's no wonder that there are many people who give Li Mu a gift, sometimes it will play the role of four or two thousand catties;
Second, 20 minutes The room is too short, one minute for self introduction, one minute for greetings, one minute for the United States and Silicon Valley to say a few welcome words, one minute for gifts, one minute to bring the topic to the point, even though the efficiency has been very high, there are still five minutes to be wasted. In a word, the real time to talk about things is only 15 minutes. How can we do it in 15 minutes Li Mu was impressed by himself and Sequoia, and became Eric.Hanks The biggest problem right now.
And Eric.Hanks In the same way, there are at least a dozen venture capital investors in the whole Silicon Valley who have made arrangements with Li Mu for the next day's meeting.
When Eric.Hanks When Li Mu prepared his companion gifts, he heard from some friends in the industry that Li Mu had an appointment with more than ten venture capitalists tomorrow, and each of them was a standard 20 minute time, which seemed to be very hurried, but even so, it would take at least a few hours for a quick chat of more than ten companies, and a moderate rest would be arranged in the middle If it's time, just arrange all the working hours of the day.
In this way, we can foresee several points in tomorrow's meeting. First of all, in the meeting time of 20 minutes, it must be very difficult to have flexible space, and we must make good use of the 20 minutes. Secondly, Li Mu has too much capital to interview this time in the United States. Whether the initial contact of tomorrow is directly on the topic of financing or not, finally, Li Mu's financing plan in the United States is still necessary One by one talk.
Eric.Hanks He has been investing in the industry for many years. He knows the old experience. He knows that super quality investment projects like Makino science and technology have rarely seen from the beginning of the Internet bubble, and know that all the colleagues are interested in Makino science and technology. They also know that once an enterprise wants to negotiate with many other venture capitalists, the head of the enterprise will easily produce aesthetic fatigue. Too many, Li Mu's mind can only be measured and compared by asking price at that time. In this way, if he wants to highlight the siege, he can only spend more money, which is a great pressure on him.
The next morning, Li Mu went from the hotel to Muye technology's office in Silicon Valley. At 9:00 am local time, he began to meet with his first wave of guests.
For today's intensive interview arrangement, Li Mu's biggest goal is to bring pace. Although the whole industry knows that he has a financing plan, he didn't show his intention to any VC in advance, which means that he still has a Pipa half hidden face. The more so, the more tense and pressure the capital feels.
Eric.Hanks He arrived at the branch of Muye technology in Silicon Valley less than 10 o'clock. As he arrived early, he didn't rush in, but sat in his car and kept thinking about what might happen after seeing Li Mu.
He didn't contact Li Mu, but he knew that Li Mu didn't follow the rules, which can be seen from his silent visit to the United States this time. He guessed that Li Mu might play Taiji with himself today, or go straight to the main topic and surprise himself. He had practiced many times in his mind about how to deal with any situation, just waiting to meet Li Mu , fight with Li Mu.
