"Brother Luo, your gameplay really hurts the brains of our investors. I ca n't understand your path at all. VCs are afraid of this wild way. You swipe tens of millions and throw it out. Chic, but Investors are so scared that it is not a matter of millions if they lose. "
At this moment, Luo Sheng, who returned to Shencheng, answered a call in his office. It was Liu Wen of the venture capital fund. Just now the heads of IDG and Goldman Sachs also called and said the same thing.
Liu Wen's words had a complicated tone. Now when he boarded Luo Sheng's ship, he couldn't go down anymore, and the most tangled place was that he didn't want to go down.
Because the development momentum of Bluestar Technology is really bright, this cloud song search project exceeded investors' expectations. I thought that Luo Sheng was a social product developer who engaged in search engines and browsers. Investors were not optimistic at all. .
But as soon as it came online, hey, it is still remarkable, at least he has confused the search engine field.
As soon as Yunge search was launched, the results were quite impressive, especially the 30 million acquisition of hao123. Now look back, this sale has made a lot of money. Assuming it is sold again, even 300 million may not be Also available.
VC is really fragrant again.
On the one hand, Luo Sheng's gameplay was incomprehensible, his handwriting was so large, and he must have been seriously injured when he rolled over, but so far he has not rolled over.
So it's tangled ...
Luo Sheng replied with a smile: "General Manager Liu, if anyone outside can understand, what else is there for me? You're right."
Liu Wen: "It looks like a bit of reason, I can't refute this sentence."
Luo Sheng: "Let's put it this way, I may not be able to do profitable trading, but I will not do it."
Liu Wen was speechless, and naturally asked: "Is that, Brother Luo, do you think those places make money?"
He dared to say that, but he was almost used to it.
Luo Sheng said without hesitation: "In the real estate business, I have been optimistic about the housing market in ten or even ten to fifteen years."
Liu Wen was speechless again, and Luo Sheng added: "I spent the investors' money for a while, but it was not forged that my money was exchanged for my company's equity, right? In the Internet industry, metabolism is too fast. If you slow down, you will miss the air vent. You can rise quickly and become an oligarch in the industry. The time cost is the most expensive for me. "
Liu Wen sighed and said in a complex tone: "In the beginning of October, the A round of financing was 600 million yuan. I thought it would cost you seven or eight months. Now it seems that four or five months have reached the sky."
Luo Sheng said, "Frankly speaking about President Liu, I'm preparing for a new move recently. I'm afraid the money is not enough."
As soon as Liu Wen heard the gawk on the spot, he shouted, "What? You took 600 million yuan in early October, and you are short of money? Don't frame me, Brother Luo, I will also count, no matter how Blue Star There are still two or three hundred million in the funding pool? "
Luo Sheng shook his head and replied: "To be exact, it is about 280 million, but not enough, far from enough."
Liu Wen's heart suddenly jumped, and he couldn't help but said lowly on the phone: "What do you want to do? What new action will cost so much money?"
He was really intrigued. What was in Luo Sheng's head? He has so many ideas and ideas?
Since launching the company in February this year, the number of products launched has been two or three years higher than other Internet companies. Starting from the creation of the blue space, the curriculum system, photo function, label function, like function, message flow function, Privacy slider function, and now the cloud song search, post it, hao123 and so on.
The number of users in the blue space has been soaring. When Yunge Search was launched, it was a genuine third-generation search engine technology that benchmarked Google and Baidu.
Bluestar Technology iteratively develops products in a frantic way,
Accompanying it is that the company's valuation has also been pushed up once in a short time. Of course, for investors of the company, this is of course a very happy opinion.
Luo Sheng replied with a smile: "You will know by then, I will go to North America in two days, mainly to do two things, one is the California Bay Area to see the overall situation of North American films, I plan to Set up a new project dedicated to operating in the European and American Internet markets, and another place is Wall Street, seeking Series B financing. "
Liu Wen was silent for a while, and sighed helplessly: "Well, you are really getting bigger and bigger, getting crazy."
Luo Sheng laughed and laughed: "In this world, there are actually two kinds of people who can make a lot of money: one is a stupid fool, and the other is a lunatic who dares to play with this fool."
...
In late December, the headquarters of Bluestar Technology Co., Ltd. was relocated from Shencheng Jinmao Building, and moved from outside Shencheng to the landing of Xiangcheng District, Sucheng.
This matter has also been the focus of the media. As the current domestic Internet rookie, the four well-known domestic Internet companies "BALT", the latest Bluestar Technology is the first and the first Internet company in the country to "go overseas" Vulgar grade company.
The domestic Internet companies are all focused on the domestic market. Only Bluestar Technology has a global outlook and dares to globalize its business at this time. Blue Space has achieved good results from millions of users overseas. The current development momentum It's also fascinating.
From this point of view alone, some industry insiders boast that Luo Sheng's pattern is higher than other Internet people by more than one rank. It has achieved feats that all Chinese have not done, and naturally has won a lot of praise.
The point is that he is still so young and excessive, which undoubtedly adds a bit of legendary color. In the eyes of many people, it may be because of their youthful vigor that they dare to fight dare not to fail.
The move of Blue Star Technology from Shencheng also made this industry the hottest and most modern city in China.
Why was Bluestar Technology born here, but it couldn't be left in the end?
In contrast, Sioux City has also attracted attention. Why can this city attract a large and rising Internet technology company to land here?
However, these did not pay much attention to the client Luo Sheng. The company's plate has expanded, and every move will be noticed, interpreted, or even interpreted by the outside world. If you don't care about the days, the company cannot develop.
In fact, Luo Cheng did not have so many considerations when choosing Sucheng. In the future, Shencheng will definitely take off in the future. The location is really good. This cannot be denied in any case. uukanshu.com was moved out to take into account the expensive operating costs of the next ten to fifteen years.
Of course, there is another main reason is that this city is not suitable for Internet companies, and the soil for survival is average.
Although Sioux City will also grow in the future, it will definitely not exceed Shencheng, because the geographical location is destined to be among the best in the city, but it will definitely not be the leader of Shencheng, and it is precisely because of its geographical location that Sioux City You can never be a leader, but you will never lose sight of how tossing. The history of Kulai has been fully proven. For Bluestar Technology, this is enough.
Tian Dujiao won the land, but Luo Sheng is not in a hurry to plan to build a headquarters for the company, wait a year or two to consider it, and use the current money to build a house. That is a blood loss and the price is too great. Taking the financing money to build a house has a small increase in the company's valuation, and using the money for the company's development, the increase in valuation is based on the current momentum, which is a soaring rhythm.
If it weren't for Luo Sheng's knowledge that the city of Suzhou would develop in the next few years, he wouldn't even want to take down the land now.
Therefore, after moving into Sioux City, the company rented a whole business office building in the Xiangcheng District for the company's office space. The company's development speed is extremely fast. It's too high. I moved to Sioux City and used the saved money for the company's development.
In the eyes of investors, Luo Sheng spends tens of millions of dollars every time he spends money, but he will not spend money where he should save. Now he is not spending money, it is the equity of Bluestar Technology.
So far, Bluestar Technology has 542 employees worldwide, 467 domestic employees, and the remaining 75 are overseas employees of the company.
