Chapter 662 Chosr girl and venture capital
chosegirl has become one of the most watched and popular websites in the United States.
After more than a month, ChoseGirl has expanded its business to 18 states. The daily group buying coupons for restaurants have exceeded 1 million, the number of fixed access IPs has reached 15 million, and the number of clicks has exceeded the 100 million mark!
Although there is no explosive growth, this value is very stable. It has never had big ups and downs, but has continued to grow steadily, which has been highly praised by many professionals.
Moreover, there are a total of 50 states in the United States, and now choosegirl has not even developed half of them. This cautious attitude allows everyone to see their down-to-earth attitude.
The food forums opened in 18 states have become a paradise for food lovers. Millions of people log in to discuss and share every day, and the number of discussion posts does not exceed tens of thousands.
In this hot situation, advertisers came to the door waving money, but Tang Mingxiang gritted her teeth and refused their high-dollar contract.
Last month, due to aggressive recruitment, bandwidth and server expenses increased again... and other reasons, choosegirl's losses reached 15 million US dollars. This is still in the case of only 18 states. If the business expands to the entire United States, every month
It is possible to lose 40-50 million US dollars.
But if it really gets to that point, choosegirl's influence will definitely be ten times greater than it is now!
If we sign another contract with an advertiser at that time, not only will the level of advertising be improved several times, but the advertising costs will also be increased several times.
Look at the advertisers today. Each of them takes millions and wants to sign a contract for a few years. Do you really think Tang Mingxiang is a fool?
The advertisers were easy to kill, but the next batch of visitors made the bright and charming girl hesitate.
A total of twelve famous European and American venture capital companies visited Tang Mingxiang one after another, and they all made requests to invest in choosegirl.
At first, Tang Mingxiang refused directly. Are you kidding me? I want 20% of the shares for 100 million US dollars. Do you think my aunt is a beggar?
But as she firmly refused, the venture capital companies that came later became more and more famous, and the prices they offered became higher and higher.
Especially Green Pine Capital and Baye Venture Capital. Green Pine Capital offered a super high price of 500 million 20%, or 1 billion 30%; while Baye Venture Capital was a little more gentle, they gave 5
100 million US dollars, only 15% of the shares. But Tang Mingxiang needs to promise that if the development of ChoseGirl does not meet expectations in six months, she will have to sell them 15% of the shares at the same price.
Green Pine Capital and Baye Ventures are the most famous venture capital companies in the United States and Europe respectively. They have different methods. But basically the valuation of choosegirl is still very high, basically between 2.5 billion and 3.5 billion US dollars.
, far exceeding the US$2 billion price paid by YouTube, which was acquired by Google this month.
Of course, they did not set a random price, but a company with full growth, predictable profits, and closely related to people's lives. It is definitely better than YouTube, which is purely entertainment. It has not been able to find profit growth points for a long time. Investors should rest assured.
Much more - the money-burning days of Yahoo, Cisco, etc. are still vivid in my mind. Internet companies that made money just based on concepts have taught the American people too many lessons?
With just over 200 million yuan invested, the company ChoseGirl is now worth about 3 billion U.S. dollars, which translates to 23 billion yuan. It is much more profitable than my husband selling fairy phones!
So the charming girl was a little excited, and felt that even if she didn't sell the company, it would be a good idea to accept $500 million in venture capital. At least this would make choosegirl's funds more abundant and its development more stable and rapid.
However, when he called Xiao Qi, the young man did not agree with Xiao Meiji's wife's idea.
He told Tang Mingxiang that he only had to persist for three more months, and there was no need to wait until the nationwide layout was completed. The value of ChooseGirl would definitely be higher, and it would not be too late to discuss the venture capital shareholding by then.
According to the current expansion speed, Tang Mingxiang calculated that her own funds would not be able to support it for another three months. I am afraid that several venture capital companies also knew about this, so they rushed to the front to take advantage of it.
The little beauty who was originally unwilling to rely on her husband was finally not so insistent now. She borrowed 200 million US dollars from Mingxiang Holdings, which enriched her own small treasury. At the same time, she also rejected Green Pine Capital and Baye Ventures again.
Compared to ChoseGirl's fame, the opening of Weibo Company is absolutely unambiguous.
As early as the end of October, the Weibo website had already started promoting it, and it was gradually revealed which super stars would be joining the Weibo website.
I heard that these unattainable big stars would post several posts on Weibo almost every day to tell everyone what they were doing now, and they immediately attracted a large number of star-chasers.
However, you cannot see the content of Weibo unless you log in to the Weibo website and register an account. Therefore, millions of young people can only become members of the Weibo website.
On November 3, the day the website was officially launched, sure enough, more than twenty top-notch celebrities and more than thirty popular celebrities all posted on the Weibo website, not only writing congratulatory messages, but also showing off themselves.
"While filming in Hong Kong today, I was almost unable to move without being blocked by enthusiastic fans." - Dehua.
"Today's weather in the UK is so unpleasant. It's cold and foggy. I really wish I could go back to Qiongdao to bask in the sun!" - Zhang Manyu.
"I was so happy yesterday~~but the specific reason...is kept secret~~" - Qiao Guoer.
"..."
A group of celebrities expressed their thoughts. Everyone watched with great interest and clicked "Follow" on their favorite celebrities. The most popular one was Qiao Guoer, who won the attention of 510,000 fans that day.
Now that we have entered the Weibo website, everyone has begun to understand the content and usage of the Weibo website.
After more than two weeks of exploration, many white-collar workers have begun to pay attention to their friends, leaving messages, replies, etc. on Weibo. Although the timeliness is not too timely, they can care about their friends all day long and themselves.
Complaining and so on are quite in line with their mentality of exploring new things.
In twenty days, the number of registered users reached 5 million, and the average number of online users every day exceeded 1 million. This achievement has already made Fairy Classmate quite satisfied. After all, you have to eat one bite at a time. (To be continued. If you like
