- Beijing, Baihua Recording Studio
Song recording was suspended, Wei Xixi, the recording engineer and other staff left under Cao Xuan's signal, leaving only Cao Xuan and his trusted Hu Jing in the recording studio.
"Brother Ma, say, um, um."
Cao Xuan drank the fish soup brought by Hu Jing with a spoon, put his mobile phone to his ear with his left hand, and listened to Brother Ma talking in his ear.
At the beginning of this year, China's Internet ushered in its peak. Li Cucumber's several operations brought the Internet to the sky. The market value of major Internet companies in China skyrocketed, and practitioners were all rejoicing.
At that time, when Cao Xuan went to Shenzhen City, Xiao Ma took him to drink and celebrate, preparing to have a big fight.
However, when China's Internet was rejoicing, in March, the Nasdaq Internet stock market was slowly collapsing.
The stock market in China has slowed down a little bit, but it only lasted until the beginning of April, and then it began to fall wildly, with bubbles overflowing, and the Internet winter came.
The Internet company that was originally a sweet pastry became a poison in an instant. The stock market avalanche, the market value fell rapidly, and major capitals also tightened their wallets one after another, unwilling to invest.
It was also at this juncture that Penguin ran out of money.
When the momentum of the Internet was just right, Brother Ma was not at all afraid that Cao Xuan would give up on Penguin. Even if Cao Xuan had no money, with QQ's current market share, he could still attract additional investment.
However, now that the Internet winter is coming, investors avoid the Internet like snakes and scorpions, and Xiao Ma has no confidence anymore, and he is even afraid that Cao Xuan will let go and leave the market.
Penguin has not yet achieved profitability. Without the support of Cao Xuan, the big hose, the company's funds will run out in at most half a month.
In fact, before this, Xiao Ma has already started to take some measures, even limiting the online time of users to reduce the pressure on the server.
He kept gritting his teeth and did not look for Cao Xuan, because he was afraid of hearing that Cao Xuan would sell his shares and run away after seeing the bad industry environment.
However, seeing that the book funds were about to bottom out, Xiao Ma was so worried that he didn't sleep well for a few days and stayed in the office overnight.
If Cao Xuan saw Brother Xiao Ma now, he would definitely be shocked by his appearance. His hair was disheveled, his face was scorched yellow, his eyes were dull and bloodshot, and his expression was extremely haggard.
The other founders were not much better, and their psychological pressure was even higher than when they were preparing to sell QQ last year.
? After all, QQ was just started at that time, and a few people did not invest much, and it was not particularly distressing to give up.
Now qq has a huge user base and tens of millions of investments. Even in the cold winter of the Internet, Penguin's market value can still maintain hundreds of millions. It is a large company ranked among the top Internet companies in China.
The growth of penguin and qq, several people have put in countless efforts, and it is also their important asset. Seeing that the results are about to disappear, it is no wonder that there is no pressure in their hearts once they return to the pre-liberation.
It's not that they haven't thought about looking for others, but no one wants to go to the minefield of the Internet to hunt for treasures. Many Internet companies are sold at the price of cabbage and no one wants them.
Therefore, several people discussed for a long time, and they still had to find Cao Xuan.
Before making the phone call, Brother Ma and the others discussed several wordings, thinking that even if they were cheating, they would have to cheat some money from Cao Xuan.
At the same time, several people also prepared for the worst. If Cao Xuan chooses to withdraw, or even use the power of the major shareholder to force them to sell QQ to recover blood, how should they oppose it.
Unexpectedly, after the call was made, Cao Xuan didn't blame or complain at all, but instead asked about the company's business development.
He also said that he was too busy during this time to take care of the penguins, and when he was free after a while, he went to Shenzhen City to have a look.
Several people looked at each other, seeing that Cao Xuan's tone was not bad, Brother Xiaoma became cruel and said his purpose.
Ask for money!
In fact, Cao Xuan already knew it well. Although he was busy during this time, he never forgot to pay attention to the Internet.
The reason why he didn't call Penguin, but waited for Brother Xiao Ma to call him, was to wait for Penguin and Brother Xiao Ma to come to a desperate situation again, and he made his debut again.
Since you have to give money no matter what, you must sell enough favors
Cao Xuan held his mobile phone and was silent for nearly a minute. The hearts of the brothers on the other end of the phone were all raised in their throats, and Cao Xuan finally spoke.
"How much funding gap is there?"
"20 million 10 million is also fine. The company is now cooperating with China Mobile on a project. If it is possible, it can relieve part of the financial pressure."
For fear of scaring Cao Xuan away, Xiao Ma took the initiative to cut off half of the funds, and kept emphasizing that Penguin had found a way to cash out to encourage Cao Xuan.
But in fact, Maqq advertises and attracts business.
Fully respect their founding team, not only do not randomly intervene in the company's management on a daily basis, but would rather take less shares in times of crisis, and suffer losses for themselves, and also ensure the controlling stake of their founding team, so as not to let them be overwhelmed.
I also treat them as friends in private, and never put on celebrity airs. Last year, I specially mailed gifts to each family during the Chinese New Year. There are old people and children, and they are considerate and heart-warming.
Such a good brother and a great benevolent person, they still plot against others, their conscience is really hard to bear.
Brother Ma and the others are thinking that when Cao Xuan comes to Shenzhen next time, he must sincerely make amends. He treats us as a gentleman of the country, and we must repay him as a soldier of the country.
On the other end of the phone, Cao Xuan cheered up Brother Ma and the others, encouraging them to cheer up and face severe challenges, and he will always stand behind them.
Even Cao Xuan said that even if Penguin loses, it doesn¡¯t matter. Money is a small issue, and the relationship between the brothers is the first. At worst, they can make a comeback with another project, and he will invest in Balabala for them at that time.
Brother Xiao Ma, who has never seen this before, was so moved that tears were about to fall. If Cao Xuan was in front of him, he would have pulled the burnt yellow paper and begged for help
"Okay, Brother Ma, I will arrange for Lao Gu to watch over the follow-up related matters, um, I will go there when I have time"
After hanging up the phone, Cao Xuan wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes. He was so involved in the performance just now that he became emotional.
Just as he was about to continue drinking fish soup, he turned around and saw Hu Jing looking at him strangely, Cao Xuan was puzzled.
"What are you doing?"
"Are you fooling others?"
"What are these words, I mean it sincerely. It's not like you haven't heard the words from the bottom of my heart. 20 million, I agreed without much hesitation."
"right."
Hu Jing began to doubt her own judgment just now, and muttered: "Who made your eyeballs keep rolling just now, it looks like you have some bad idea."
"Nonsense, when did I make a bad idea, they were still on the phone thanking me just now."
Cao Xuan refuted it righteously, then turned his head and asked casually: "By the way, when will your parents leave?"
"In a few days, why do you ask this? I'm afraid my mother will leave without soup, don't worry, I have learned it all, and if it doesn't work, I can buy it in a restaurant."
"The soup is not important, the main reason is that I am afraid that your parents are gone, and it will not be safe for you to live alone."
"There's nothing unsafe about that."
Hu Jing didn't care at all, while Cao Xuan was persuasive, even scaring her with the news that a single woman in a village in the capital was robbed.
Hu Jing was a little scared at first, but then she came to her senses, slapped the table, and said angrily.
"You rolled your eyes again, and said, are you thinking of something."
"I am upright and aboveboard. I am completely concerned about your safety. Don't use your dirty thoughts to tarnish my innocence."
"Bah."
Hu Jing spat, Cao Xuan failed, and began to sell miserably again.
Said that I didn't have anything to eat when I went back home from recording songs at night, and the outside was unhygienic. After eating, I had diarrhea and went to bed hungry every night.
Of course Hu Jing would not believe these nonsense, but the crux of the problem is not whether Cao Xuan's words can deceive Hu Jing, but whether Hu Jing is willing to be deceived by him.
So, Hu Jing was disgusted, but before leaving, she left Cao Xuan the key to the apartment, acquiescing that Cao Xuan could go to the house for a meal.
