039 The capital boss came to the school, and the money-giving came
Shortly after Chen Yao left, Principal Liu Wendong hurried over and walked into the laboratory.
"Old Zhong, was he really written that paper?"
The principal has read those papers and the quality is really high.
Chen Yao is really Mr. A. Then, he is very likely to become the most outstanding talent in the school’s 100 years since its establishment.
Zhong Guoqiang said: "Principal Liu, starting today, you will get to know him again. He is much better than you think!"
...
After Chen Yao hung up the phone, he immediately walked towards the university's multimedia room.
Cai Feifei quickly caught up with her high heels: "Classmate, is your company going to raise funds?"
Chen Yao turned too fast, and Cai Feifei didn't recognize him anymore.
Chen Yao walked quickly and nodded: "Well, the round of financing."
The two of them walked while talking and soon arrived outside the conference room.
At this moment, top luxury cars parked outside the building.
Bentley, Lamborghini, Ferrari, tens of millions of Bugatti Veyrons...
It attracted many students to watch.
"What's the origin? What a big and elegant one."
"I heard that it is the big boss of the capital investment bank coming."
"Which company wants to raise funds, so awesome?"
The car door opened, Li Zhiming, wearing a suit, got out of the car and walked towards Chen Yao: "Mr. Chen, they are all here."
In an instant, everyone's eyes were cast on Chen Yao.
Chen Yao asked: "Who are involved in this financing?"
Li Zhiming looked at the document in his hand and said, "Domestic Penguin, Ah Li, Lushan Capital. Foreign Microsoft, ibm, Goldman Sachs, ****, and SoftBank Capital."
The students' eyes were illuminating, as if they were seeing mountains of gold!
These top capital giants are all coming to give Chen Yao money!
Chen Yao’s company is so awesome, can it attract so many giants to invest?
The doors of top luxury cars opened, and capital tycoons in suits got off the car.
Chen Yao took the initiative to walk over and shook hands with them.
Immediately, they were entertained into the conference room for negotiations.
Cai Feifei was stunned and quickly followed Chen Yao into the room.
Although her family is well-off and she is a typical white and rich beauty, this is the first time she has seen this capital operation that is almost 100 billion yuan at any time.
This is a world of capital, and nothing can be played without capital.
Walking into the room, Li Zhiming entertained them and sat down one by one.
Most of these capital tycoons are representatives sent by the head office.
From Chen Yao's heart, he does not reject financing. Although this will reduce his equity ratio, startups need too much money.
As long as the valuation they give is high enough, it is acceptable to retain enough equity.
If they had opened their mouths, Chen Yao would never compromise with capital.
An oval table sat down with the representative of the capital giant.
Li Zhiming placed documents in front of them, with the basic situation of the legendary trajectory written on it.
The legendary track is very tender. It took less than half a year to start, and even the company license was obtained yesterday.
Investing in such a startup is very risky, but capitalists know very well that once this company grows up, it is likely to be the next one.
SoftBank, Japan's investment in 2000, was listed in New York in 14 years, and its value increased by 2,900 times!
This is an investment that is so exciting!
Chen Yao glanced around and said with a smile: "I believe you should have understood the strength of the legendary trajectory in artificial intelligence before coming here."
"I know that Legend is at the forefront of the industry in terms of ai voice technology, which is why we value your company's potential."
The person who spoke was a hook-nosed man in a white suit, who was a representative sent by Goldman Sachs, named Evans Noka.
Chen Yao said quickly: "Tell me directly, what is your valuation of the legendary trajectory?"
Regardless of whether this financing can be achieved, at least we have to see how much the company we founded is worth?
Evans stretched out five fingers: "500 million US dollars!"
Cai Feifei stuck out her tongue. A company that had been in operation for only a few months was worth 500 million yuan. The capital was really crazy.
However, Chen Yao was not happy at all. The valuation was too low and it could not meet the standards of a unicorn.
It seems that it's time to tell a story.
Entrepreneurship financing must be able to tell stories.
It is very important to know how to tell stories. It is better to tell them well than to do well. After all, no one is sure about the future. A founder who can tell good stories can bring a lot of investment to the company.
To put it bluntly, it’s just bragging!
It’s like a shared bicycle, it’s obviously a bicycle for rent, but it has to wear a gorgeous shared coat and tells a good story about the “sharing economy”, which makes the capitalists stunned.
As for whether to make awesome or turn awesome into reality in the future, it really depends on strength.
Of course, capitalists are not stupid at all, and it is not so easy to fool if they want to get money.
Chen Yao stood up, opened the notebook, and said, "I wonder if you have seen the dark horse dubbing software I demonstrated at the World Artificial Intelligence Conference last time?"
"See it." Evans nodded: "It was because of that time that I was sure to invest in your company."
Chen Yao said seriously: "One thing, you all overlooked. Behind the dark horse dubbing, the most powerful thing is not its voice recognition technology, but..."
“Its image recognition!”
To all investors' expectations, they looked at each other and didn't notice it.
There are two major areas of artificial intelligence. One is AI voice, which allows machines to speak like humans and be full of emotions.
The second is intelligent vision, which allows robots to identify objects like humans and understand the content in pictures and videos.
Compared with ai voice, ai vision is more widely used and has higher commercial value.
For example, face recognition, automatic security check, medical imaging, video review, etc.
Smart cameras allow robots to truly have a pair of "eyes" that can understand objects, and their business prospects are amazing.
The four Ai Xiaolong, who is sought after by capital in China, are mainly engaged in the visual field.
Chen Yao looked at the investors and said, "A cartoon, if you want to complete the dubbing, it is not just a dialogue. There are also sound effects on the scene. If you want the software to automatically match the animation with sound, you must give it powerful visual recognition capabilities."
It is not difficult to understand that the cartoon itself is silent. The cartoon characters inside, walking, eating, fighting, and shooting, all have to add sound effects through the later stage.
This means that the software needs to have very powerful image recognition technology and know when to add what sound effects.
Chen Yao took action, demonstrated it, and made a post-dubbing for the cartoon.
In just 5 minutes, all the dialogue dubbing was completed in one cartoon episode, and the scene sound effects were added just right.
Suddenly, all investors' eyes shine!
Legend Track Company not only masters the most advanced voice technology, but also masters the most powerful image recognition.
Chapter completed!
