Global Monopoly of Technology

"Brother Luo, your way of playing really makes our investors' brains hurt, and we can't understand your approach at all. VCs are afraid of your wild approach, and you can throw tens of millions of dollars with a big pen. Investors are horrified, it is not a matter of millions in case of loss."

At this moment, Luo Sheng, who had returned to Shencheng, was answering a phone call in his office. It was called by Liu Wen from the venture capital fund. Just now, the heads of IDG and Goldman Sachs also called and they were talking about the same thing.

Liu Wen's words had a complicated tone. Now that he was on Luo Sheng's boat, he couldn't get off even if he wanted to, and the most tangled thing was that he didn't want to get off.

Because the development momentum of Bluestar Technology is really dazzling, the Yunge search project this time exceeded the expectations of the investors. I thought Luo Sheng was a social product, and he went into search engines and browsers, but the investors were not optimistic at all. .

But as soon as the results came online, hey, it was still remarkable, at least he messed up the field of search engines.

As soon as Yunge search went online, the results were quite impressive, especially the acquisition of hao123 for 30 million yuan. Looking back now, this transaction was a huge profit. If it is sold again, even 300 million may not necessarily be sold. also available.

VC is really fragrant again.

On the one hand, Luo Sheng's gameplay is incomprehensible, and his handwriting is still so big that he must fall seriously and be seriously injured when the car rolls over, but so far he has not overturned.

So confused...

Luo Sheng replied with a smile: "Mr. Liu, if everyone outside can understand it, what else is there to do with me? You're right."

Liu Wen: "It seems to be reasonable, and I can't refute this sentence."

Luo Sheng: "Let's put it this way, I may not necessarily do business that makes money, but I definitely won't do business that loses money."

Liu Wen was speechless, and he asked back naturally, "Really, 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, in ten or even ten to fifteen years, I am optimistic about the real estate market in China."

Liu Wen was speechless again, and Luo Sheng added: "It's true that I spent investors' money, but it's not false that the money was exchanged for my company's equity, right? The Internet industry has a fast metabolism. , if you are slow, you will miss the opportunity, and if you are quicker, you will be able to take advantage of the momentum and become an oligarch in the industry, and the cost of time is the most expensive for me."

Liu Wen sighed and said with a complicated tone: "The A round of financing in early October was 600 million. I thought it would make you toss for seven or eight months. Now it seems that four or five months are the best."

Luo Sheng said: "Frankly speaking, Mr. Liu, I'm preparing for a new move recently, and I'm afraid the money is not enough."

Hearing this, Liu Wen glared and yelled, "What? At the beginning of October, you took 600 million yuan, and you're short of money? Don't frame me, Brother Luo, I'll do the math, no matter what you do with Bluestar. There are still two or three hundred million in the current capital pool, right?"

Luo Sheng shook his head and replied, "To be exact, it's about 280 million, but it's not enough, it's far from enough."

Liu Wen's heart jumped suddenly, and he couldn't help but whisper on the phone: "What do you want to do? What new action costs so much money?"

He was really incomparably curious, what exactly was in Luo Sheng's head? He has so many ideas and ideas?

Since the company was founded in February this year, it has launched more products than other Internet companies for two or three years. From the initial blue space creation, the curriculum system, photo function, tag function, like function, message flow function, Privacy slider function, and now cloud song search, post bar, hao123 and so on.

The number of users of Blue Space is soaring, and Yunge Search is a genuine third-generation search engine technology, which is the benchmark for Google and Baidu.

Bluestar Technology has iteratively developed and launched products frantically,

Accompanying it, the company's valuation has also been pushed up in a short period of time, which is of course a very happy result for the company's investors.

Luo Sheng replied with a smile: "You'll know when the time comes, I'm going to North America in two days, mainly to do some things in two places, one is to see the general situation of North American films in the California Bay Area, 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: "Alas, you are really playing bigger and bigger, and you are getting more and more crazy."

Luo Sheng smiled and said, "There are actually two kinds of people who can make a lot of money in this world: one is a one-stranded fool, and the other is a lunatic who dares to play with such a fool."

...

In late December, the headquarters of Bluestar Technology was relocated from Shencheng Jinmao Building, and moved from outside Shencheng to Xiangcheng District, Suzhou City.

This matter has also attracted the attention of the media. As a rookie in the domestic Internet, among the four well-known Internet companies in the domestic "BALT", Bluestar Technology, which was established at the latest, is the first and the first Internet company in China to "go overseas" to achieve unparalleled success. Company with good performance.

Domestic Internet companies are all focused on the domestic market. Only Bluestar Technology has a global perspective and dares to globalize its business at this time. Bluespace has achieved good results with millions of users overseas. The current development momentum Also eye-catching.

Just from this point of view, some people in the industry directly praise Luo Sheng's pattern higher than other Internet people by more than one rank. He has achieved a feat that all Chinese people have not done, and naturally won a lot of praise.

The key is that he is still too young, which undoubtedly adds a bit of legendary color. In the eyes of many people, it may be precisely because of his youthful spirit that he dares to fight and is not afraid of failure.

The relocation of Bluestar Technology from Shencheng this time also makes this country's most fashionable and modern city hotly debated in the industry.

Why was Bluestar Technology born here, but it could not be left behind in the end?

In contrast, Sioux City is also attracting attention. How can this city attract a rising large Internet technology company to land here?

However, for Luo Sheng, the party involved, he did not pay attention. The company's plate has expanded, and every move will be watched, interpreted, or even over-interpreted by the outside world. If you care about the days that have not been posted, the company will not be able to develop.

In fact, Luo Sheng did not have so many considerations in choosing Sucheng. First, the future of Shanghai will definitely take off. The location is really good. This is undeniable in any case. The reason for moving out is to consider the arrival of the next ten years. Fifteen years later, expensive operating costs.

Of course, another main reason is that this city is not suitable for Internet companies, and the living soil is mediocre.

Although Sucheng will grow in the future, it will definitely not surpass Shencheng, because its geographical location is destined to be among the best, but it will never surpass the limelight of Shencheng and become a leader. At the same time, it is precisely because of its geographical location that Sucheng is It will never become a leader, but no matter how hard it is, it will never fall silent. The ancient history has been fully proved. For Bluestar Technology, this is enough.

Tian Dujiao has won the land, but Luo Sheng is not in a hurry to plan to build a headquarters for the company. He will wait a year or two before thinking about it. Using the current money to build a house would be a blood loss and the price would be too high. Taking the financing money to build a house will increase the company's valuation very little, while using the money for the company's development, the increase in valuation is at the current momentum, which is the rhythm of skyrocketing.

If it weren't for Luo Sheng knowing that Su City would develop greatly in the next few years, he wouldn't even want to take this land now.

Therefore, after moving to Sioux City, Zhanshi rented an entire commercial office building in Xiangcheng District for the company's office space. The company's development speed is extremely rapid. Too high, move to Sioux City and use the savings to grow the company.

In the eyes of investors, Luo Sheng spends tens of millions of dollars every time he spends, but he will not spend money indiscriminately where he should save. What he spends now is not money, but the equity of Bluestar Technology.

Up to now, Bluestar Technology has 542 global employees, 467 of which are domestic employees, and the remaining 75 are overseas employees of the company.
