Chapter 96

With the spread of Yahoo's last round of financing, it has attracted the attention of many multimedia and people.

Especially when there was capital to contact Yahoo for the first time, the announcement of Yahoo's current valuation of $2 billion by Yahoo's management immediately made the venture capital industry in an uproar.

Although I know that Yahoo's valuation will not be low, I didn't expect it to be so high that Yahoo, which has not been listed, will be valued at 2 billion. If it really wants to be listed, how much can the market value be.

Many people are ready to read Yahoo's jokes and think that Yahoo's management is a little inflated and crazy.

Li Feng also pays close attention to Yahoo's news every day, and makes several phone calls with Yahoo's company representatives and Yang Zhiyuan from time to time to understand the situation.

For more than half a month, I have contacted the capital of all parties for many times and negotiated for several times, but I haven't reached an agreement yet. The highest quotation of capital has reached US $1.6 billion.

Recently, Li Feng talked to Yang Zhiyuan on the phone and joked that it's my turn to break the game.

I don't know how the outside world will react when the news that I'm ready to accept the valuation of $2 billion comes out. Will it be said that these people colluded with each other and so on, and everyone laughed on the phone.

......

Li Feng calculated that the time was almost. Yahoo's financing had been discussed for a long time. It seemed that it was time to end the farce. Then he thought that Silicon Valley was not far from Los Angeles.

Isn't Los Angeles to San Francisco the famous No. 1 highway? It happened to be a trip along the No. 1 highway, and then began to arrange people. Li Feng really hasn't passed the world-famous No. 1 highway.

As it happens, Charlize is busy with movies recently. Yes, with a lot of exposure recently, Charlize and Harry berry are busy.

Charlize has had a lot of film opportunities, although they are all supporting roles. Similarly, Harry berry seems to have entered a period of rapid career development.

One day later, there were two SUVs in the front and two SUVs in the back, and an RV in the middle was all bulletproof. Of course, it could only prevent the attack of ordinary guns. All the cars were newly bought.

There were two security personnel in the front and back, two lawyers and two negotiators, together with the driver and Bob in the middle, and a group of 11 people opened their own manor. Then he drove out of Los Angeles, got on Highway 1 and headed for San Francisco.

This time he went to help the platform, so Li Feng specially arranged a strong show.

......

While Yahoo's management in Silicon Valley is talking with many venture capitalists and capital, Li Feng and his party are walking slowly along Highway 1 towards Los Angeles.

Here, Li Feng and Yang Zhiyuan have negotiated properly. They only need to arrive within 2 days and have enough time to browse the scenery all the way.

Although it is from south to north, although it is not more beautiful in sensory terms than from north to south, this trip of Highway 1 still makes Li Feng sigh. It is really a worthwhile trip.

After coming out of Los Angeles, he headed for San Francisco, passing Malibu and Santa Barbara along the way.

After all, these two places are too close to Los Angeles, and Li Feng didn't see it. Not too early, Li Feng asked real estate companies to pay attention to the development of these two places. It is said that there are already projects in these two places.

Li Feng is very clear that these two places will be one of the most beautiful and expensive areas in the United States in the future. Now it is a sure bet to open real estate.

......

After entering the Danish village, Li Feng stayed for several hours, had lunch, had a good browse, and tasted the style of Danish song Ben and ha Ge.

Not to mention Hester Castle after that. After all, I have just visited the famous circel National Park, visited the elephant beach, and watched the dense elephant seals rest on the beach, which opened Li Feng's eyes.

Next comes the great Sur, which is known as the most beautiful section of Highway 1. During this period, Li Feng's team stopped from time to time to browse the surrounding scenery, such as seals, Sequoia forest, cliffs, sea and blue sky, forming a unique beauty.

On the same day, we passed the magnificent Bixby bridge, which is said to be the largest single arch concrete bridge in the world.

The bridge appears from time to time in movies, television and advertisements. It is also one of the scenic spots often visited by tourists, on the coast of California and between cliffs.

Finally, he arrived at Carmel town with Bohemian style and was ready to stay in this town for one night. Li Feng was also quite curious about this town.

It is said that the town refuses modernization and any form of advertising, prohibits the installation of neon lights and puts an end to fast food restaurants. Therefore, it is rare to see McDonald's and KFC in the town.

......

Early the next morning, I had a amorous breakfast in Carmel Town, and then continued to start the team. However, I came to a section where Li Feng was speechless, the famous "17 miles", which is a private path. The only thing that needs to be paid for Highway 1 is the fare.

Li Feng still thought later that the owner of this section of the road was more ox fork. It is estimated that which hidden family bought the pasture where this section of the road is located. As a result, this section of the road has become a private land of others, and the natural owner can charge.

Li Feng also thought before that if the Hearst family had not donated the castle to the government, they could also set up a toll like the owner of 17 miles. After all, it is said that all the nearby Hearst Castle had been bought.

Then, although the scenery along the way was pretty good, I always felt that it was general. The only thing was to stop at their respective corner lighthouse and Half Moon Bay State Beach, take some photos, and finally arrive in San Francisco.

After eating and resting in San Francisco, many talents finally headed for the destination of this trip - Silicon Valley.

......

At the same time, there was a heated debate in Yahoo's conference room. It has been three days since the negotiation on the market value and shares, but there is still no result.

After all, according to the valuation of 2 billion yuan and 20% of the shares, this time it is a one-time financing of $400 million. This is all cash, which can not be eaten by a capital, including Sequoia Capital, KPCB, IDG, de Fengjie, etc. well, they are old friends. They are all here.

"Jerry, I don't think it's too disappointing that you insist on not giving in. Yes, we are all optimistic about Yahoo, but it doesn't mean that we must invest in Yahoo, does it?"

"Indeed, everyone, I think you can see the development of Yahoo, and the popularity of Netscape has made everyone aware of the charm of the Internet, isn't it.

I think you should be very clear that Netscape only occupies the browser market, and I think the browser battle has begun in the future. We don't know what the browser market will be in the future. However, I think you are very clear about Yahoo.

Yahoo has occupied the Internet entrance market. Our management believes that Yahoo's future must far surpass Netscape. In fact, the valuation of only 2 billion does not mean Yahoo. In fact, we all think Yahoo is underestimated.

Next, Yahoo will make big moves to further occupy the current market and open up new markets, such as Asia, South America and so on.

Yahoo's future is bright. I assure you that your investment will have a valuable return. "

Yang Zhiyuan was already very confident at this time. He did not change his color and talked freely to a group of big men.

......

Just as everyone entered the fierce debate again, Li Feng entered the conference room under the guidance of the staff.

"Wow, your highness son, you finally came. I thought you didn't care about Yahoo." When Li Feng walked into the conference room, everyone stopped arguing, but David Philo first stood up and hugged him, then smiled and said.

"David, look at your red face. It looks good. Hello, everyone. Wow, many old friends are here." Li Feng turned around and saw many familiar faces.

"John, your legendary son has finally come." Don Valentine said with a smile.

"I'm flattered... Don't worry about me. Just talk." With that, Li Feng went to the representative of his company.

"Boss, you're here at last. Please." Lewis stood up, asked Li Feng to sit down, and then stood behind Li Feng.

"Lewis, it's hard for you." Li Feng smiled back and sat down at the conference table.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Li Feng thought, no wonder the big people in movies and TV like to come on the stage last, and the scene that attracts the attention of the whole audience is still very fake.

He sent a dog leg around and followed the crowd and said, "the son has arrived..."
