192: Subsequent turmoil led to an incognito investigation!
You should know.
In this day and age, the hottest tech company isn't Shanda, Sohu, or Baidu.
Instead, it's Ali Baba, which achieved a sales volume of over 30 billion yuan in a single day.
In a few months, it will even go public in the US, conducting the most unprecedented IPO!
The helmsman of such an enterprise has now also invested in ByteDance Company?!
Suddenly, ByteDance Company became known and understood by countless people.
The company's attention soared.
This is the value of Old Ma.
After seeing this development, ByteDance CEO Zhang Yiming was ecstatic; this was precisely why he recognized Wang Lin.
This kid has truly given him too many surprises.
During the financing that day, he saw in Wang Lin's eyes that Wang Lin genuinely wanted to invest in him at a valuation of 1 billion US dollars.
Although he himself understood that, according to his vision, the future ByteDance Company would have enormous potential, why was Wang Lin so confident?
In fact, if Sequoia Capital hadn't come this time, this news would have attracted many investors to follow suit.
He wouldn't even know how much money his company's Series C Financing could raise.
The capital's disapproval last year had even made him doubt himself.
At this moment, Wang Lin's trust was like a ray of sunshine, shining into his heart.
The subsequent contract Wang Lin brought with Old Ma was as solid as a rock.
He thought at the time, this financing round today is secure!
He could finally take this money and begin a major overhaul of his business!
"If you still want to invest in the Series D round, I will definitely override all objections and give you priority!" Zhang Yiming silently thought.
Ali Baba Company.
Old Ma was sitting in his office, listening to Cai Chongxin's nagging.
"Old Cai, just listen to me. We've been through so much together over the years, don't you know my judgment of people?"
"That kid is truly unique. I've looked at the few companies he's chosen, and they're all very promising!"
"Besides, investing in such a company doesn't cost much money."
Cai Chongxin was speechless: "Old Ma, is this about money? This is about our company's credibility. We're being used by ByteDance Company as an endorsement."
"Their new product is short videos, right? If there are any loopholes in their review process and they release inappropriate content, we'll have to bear some of the blame!"
Old Ma smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's still a company valued at 500 million US dollars, not some fly-by-night platform!"
Cai Chongxin sighed: "Since it's come to this, let's hope for the best, and that it won't affect our IPO!"
Old Ma winked at Cai Chongxin: "I knew you were thinking about that. The Americans look at data, they won't just look at such a small company, it won't have any impact at all!"
"On the contrary, I think this company might bring us some considerable profits in the future."
"If you don't believe me, I can also invest with my own funds, just using Ali Baba's name."
Cai Chongxin thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement... In Beijing.
Wang Ning of Bubble Blind Box became exceptionally excited upon seeing Wang Lin arrive.
"Manager Wang, you've really been making waves lately! Even Sequoia Capital was defeated by you, truly impressive!"
Wang Lin was a little stunned; he hadn't expected the news to spread so quickly. How did Wang Ning seem to know everything? "Did this spread so fast?"
Wang Ning shook his head and said, "It's just that I happened to meet an investor these past two days, and he revealed it to me. It was only because I mentioned that our current creative idea came from you that the subsequent conversation was sparked."
"Because of this, they've also become very interested in our company."
"Of course, this also has a prerequisite, which is that our company's current sales are truly insane, and the online hype has also successfully taken off."
"This jasmine doll IP has become an instant hit!"
Wang Ning looked at Wang Lin with a hint of fanaticism: "Manager Wang, although everyone calls me Manager Wang now, to me, you are the real Manager Wang!"
"After this battle, Bubble Blind Box's valuation has at least doubled!"
"And according to my calculations and plans, I now have a very clear understanding of our company's future development!"
"Perhaps at some point, we can also go public in the US and return home in glory!"
Wang Lin listened to Wang Ning's narration, feeling amused.
This guy still hasn't realized that what he's saying is actually already on the path to success.
After walking around the company a few times, Wang Lin checked the company's atmosphere.
He found that it was indeed quite good now; the employees were all passionate.
Wang Ning quietly said, "Actually, it's just that sales have been good recently. I've given them all bonuses, and there's also commission-based pay. Everyone makes money, so efficiency naturally increases."
Wang Lin smiled and glanced at him; this guy still had a bit of a conscientious business owner about him.
"Manager Wang, don't leave tonight, I'll arrange something for you."
Wang Lin smiled and nodded.
"Oh, right, those jasmine dolls from your side, pack a few for me to take back tomorrow," Wang Lin said.
Coming to Beijing this time, Wang Lin also had a task to bring back a jasmine doll for Wang Ran.
This trendy toy, which had exploded in popularity on social media, was sought after by many.
Wang Lin truly hadn't expected his own sister to want one.
It seemed this item had indeed become incredibly popular ahead of schedule.
Wang Ning immediately said, "No problem, Manager Wang, how many do you need? How about I prepare 10 sets for you directly?"
10 sets, which was the complete collection of all current jasmine doll series.
It included 8 planetary series jasmine dolls and 1 original astronaut jasmine doll, all in 1000% enlarged versions.
These items were super limited on the market.
But for Wang Lin, Wang Ning had to supply them with full effort!
Without Wang Lin, the jasmine doll IP would not have been born.
90 large jasmine dolls, a large vehicle directly sent them all to Zheng County.
Wang Lin smiled and waved his hand, saying, "No need for so many, 5 sets are enough. Send one of them to the school for my sister; she wants it."
Wang Ning fawned, "Then, should we create a special limited edition just for Manager Wang's sister? I'll have someone exclusively design and mold it!"
Hearing this, Wang Lin's heart stirred.
Holy cow, if this thing were made, it would be quite interesting, wouldn't it?
"Is it expensive?"
"Not at all, not at all, just the cost of a mold, how much could that be?"
"Then let's do it! That girl will worship me to death when she sees it, won't she?!"
