118. Angel Investment
Yesterday, Beijing.
In the cafe, Lin Xin and the spoon in her hand were stirring the coffee while thinking about Lu Zhou's words just now.
He picked up the coffee and took a sip, and said with a smile, "In principle, it's hard for me to agree to this approach. Of course, I tend to make a decision after listening to your ideas. There is too much bad water in your belly, so I'm going to be careful of this."
Lu Zhou was not surprised to hear his words, and took out a file bag from the side and handed it over, "Mr. Lin can take a look at this first."
After Lin Xinhe took the document, she first started to read it. He looked confused first, then frowned, and then suddenly became clear.
"It's great. I feel ups and downs. I really need to have no problem with the flow of funds and no secret operations. I can agree with this. But if you really want to do a similar incubator, how should relevant professionals solve it?
I mean business operations. First of all, you must be clear: investment and business are two different things." Lin Xinhe asked with a squinted eye.
Lu Zhou's fingertips tapped the table and looked at Lin Xinhe, "It depends on Mr. Lin's support."
"Sure enough." Lin Xinhe said in his heart.
He laughed and said, "I just said, "You guy came to the capital to find me, so you won't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing. I will ask Lao Ding to help you find someone. In addition, I heard that you have had some unhappiness with the Creative Factory?"
Lu Zhou laughed loudly after hearing this, "It's not unpleasant to be a businessman. Menggu Advertising does this thing like the copywriting you see. First of all, the application market is naturally inclusive and incubated. Even if you don't do it today, you will definitely do it in the future.
Today, every time Menggu invests two yuan in the ground, it will increase its installed capacity. Supported by the banana market and advertising share, it can barely catch up with the market growth rate.
Then, the flow of bananas has increased, and it seems that only the recommended fee will be guaranteed for drought and flood. In fact, it is not.
The initial clampdown of traffic entrances will gradually weaken with the mobile Internetization, so the strategy is very simple. First, promote your own products, and second, promote products within the ecosystem. The final option is to use traffic to sell money.
This is a creative factory that can’t be done in any way, just get it all together.”
Lu Zhou then added, "Of course, if Mr. Lin thinks that the incubator needs to be stripped from Menggu, it is also possible to operate with DCM in joint venture."
Lin Xinhe shook his head. He didn't believe that Lu Zhou didn't know the details of the financing. He only thought that this was Lu Zhou's temptation.
"There is no problem with Luzhou, but it is not appropriate to participate in DCM. You should be clear that DCM capital is mainly concentrated in the A round. If DCM is involved in the incubation of your Dream Valley, we can't interfere in the A round."
After saying that, Lu Zhou saw Lin Xinhe add another spoonful of sugar and stir it.
Does Lu Zhou not understand? He naturally understands it.
The angel round of the startup team is invested in Menggu Advertising. If DCM also participates in this process, it will no longer be able to participate in the team's round A-round lead investment and pricing, but needs to find third-party capital to lead investment and reprice.
This is an industry rule to avoid "internal transactions". Otherwise, starting from ABC, a company can completely swear its valuation to the sky.
Menggu advertisements are incubated. If Lin Xinhe feels that he doesn't like it, then he will probably directly refuse. Obviously, he agrees with Luzhou's plan.
And what benefits can dcm have? It is naturally a good angel wheel partner.
First of all, the team supported by Jingmeng Valley. If you have the conditions, you can hand it over to DCM Capital for round A pricing and lead investment. After all, for capital, this is a business, and every company is their "commodity".
Investment managers do a good job of making efforts everywhere and contact the entrepreneurial team with all their thoughts. All they have to do is find good projects. Taking advantage of the cheap price in the early stages of development, capital will place some shares, and wait until it develops before finding the next company to take over at a higher price.
Naturally, under layers, the last one to take over are ordinary investors in the open market.
Since Menggu Advertising is now involved in incubation and angel wheel, dcm is naturally very welcome. After all, dcm itself is a shareholder of Menggu Advertising. Although it does not involve daily management, internal information can still be learned.
The operating conditions of these developers are reflected in the background data in Menggu advertising, which is real data. This is much more reassuring than the data mixed with water.
Of course, it is just a "empty talk" right now. His optimistic view of Luzhou's model does not mean that every incubated team dcm is willing to accept it.
It naturally takes some time during this period, which is for both Menggu Advertising itself and for these incubated teams.
Lin Xinhe looked at the blank paper in her hand and understood the intention of Li Guanfu of Creative Factory to define the first investment project as Wandoujia. The birth and development of a market application can promote the development of a large number of other peripheral applications and teams.
Undoubtedly, this is a powerful tool.
"Although you are 'young', you old Li are still a little far-sighted. You can't do anything young." Lin Xinhe thought.
Lu Zhou picked up the coffee cup and said, "That's thank you Mr. Lin."
Lin Xinhe nodded and said, "You are welcome, Mr. Lu. Do it well. I'm waiting for you to incubate projects worth over 100 million yuan."
Luzhou is not up to date. "Mr. Lin. It will be available soon, don't worry."
"Haha. I won't talk much about it. Menggu advertisement, Lao Ding's feedback to me has always made me feel relieved. I'm sorry, please come to Beijing to communicate because of this matter."
Lu Zhou naturally smiled in his heart. During the call, he and Lin Xinhe had communicated through the incubator many times, "Old Fox."
He also knew that dcm needed to ensure the safety of his funds. Similarly, since Luzhou planned to include Menggu advertising incubation investment business and to have some business dealings with dcm, the benefits must be given.
He said, "Mr. Lin, several teams that have passed the Menggu review have performed very well in terms of operational data and revenue. In the next few months, we will increase traffic support for these teams.
I will send the relevant information to your email later, you can review it. If you have an ideal grade in the future, Mr. Laulin will support these young men."
When Lin Xinhe heard the word "young man", a smile rose from the corner of her mouth, "Haha, little fox."
"It's great. It's worthy of being a dream youth. Lao Ding, I'll arrange for him to raise a draft of a strategic investment department for you, so I believe Mr. Lu can be more convenient. As for public relations and media, you can make arrangements by yourself after Wang Wenjun takes office."
