Chapter 064 [Although in the present, but managing the future]

The leaders of Goldman Sachs, SoftBank, and other powerful figures were present. At the same time, the representatives of investors such as venture capital funds, Sequoia Capital, Morgan Stanley, and Idg were also present.

What surprised Luo Sheng was that Xu Chenghua was also present among the participants, but he was relieved soon. However, if nothing unexpected happened, Teng Xun was a so-called role, and another Chinese face represented Huajin Securities.

This time Goldman Sachs brought several new capital parties, naturally to diversify risks. Luo Sheng came here to attract investment this time, and he would definitely invest, just a matter of how much investment it is.

It is impossible not to invest money. I have invested so much money in Luo Sheng. The development momentum of Blue Star Technology is indeed good. Of course, I will not give up, otherwise the previous investment is equivalent to being wasted.

Goldman Sachs' head Henry Paulson showed his outstanding cultivation. After Luo Sheng came in, he immediately reached out to signal him to take his seat.

Luo Sheng did not have any stage fright, nor even formal clothes, but his confident temperament that seemed to be natural was not deliberately pretending.

It was not that I had seen big scenes in my previous life. After all, Luo Sheng was born in the past life, which was on an equal footing with the United States and even vaguely surpassed the United States. That kind of confidence is not comparable to that of people in this era, and this is undeniable.

But his performance surprised the big guys present. It was rare for such confident young Chinese people to be seen, and many people felt a sense of curiosity about Luo Sheng.

A Goldman Sachs executive looked at Luo Sheng and said: "Since the last year of the last century, the Internet boom has swept Wall Street. Every day, new companies can be seen listing on Nasdaq, and thousands of millionaires have emerged. Internet companies have become the darling of the market until the bubble bursts..."

"bluespae. went online in February this year. This is the first Internet company in the Eastern Hemisphere to enter a global business. With you and your team's management, bluespae's users have achieved a breakthrough of 100 million in Greater China, and have also created tens of millions of users in the international market, attracting much attention from Wall Street. However, you have not earned any advertising fees so far, and you haven't even gotten back a dollar."

"But it has taken away $81.42 million from investors. What we are now focusing on is not bluespae's growth, but questioning its profitability, so..."

When talking about this, the Goldman Sachs executive stopped talking and instead reached out to Luo Sheng. The latter replied with a smile without any hesitation: "Once an Internet company chooses to make a profit, it means it will explode soon, because its size is too large. Whether it is the blue space or the international version of Bluespae, it has not accepted any advertisers so far because we believe that its growth space has just begun. The company has not brought in $1 in revenue so far. It is not because of its profitability problem, but because if we choose to earn a little advertising fee now, we will lose the future and at least affect the greater future profit."

The representative person sent by Sequoia Capital looked at Luo Sheng and asked: "I don't agree. While Baidu is developing rapidly, its advertising profitability is eye-catching. Now it no longer relies too much on capital transfusions to provide its development. Teng Xun is the same, and even Alibaba is not the case. Why can't Blue Star Company do it?"

Luo Sheng still smiled and replied calmly: "With Yunge Search's online, Baidu's profits from self-profits are probably not enough to develop. Yunge Search has already faced competition with Baidu, and what he has taken out is a real capital consumption in the battle."

The representative in charge sent by Sequoia Capital said again: "OK, money-burning war, clichéd Internet competition methods... If you can, please tell us some things that the Internet can do before. We are tired of listening to what we can do."

Luo Sheng said: "Maybe you can come to our country to see. Whether in the streets of Shencheng or Pengcheng, young people are hotly discussing the Internet topics, and data is the best proof. The growth rate of Internet users in China has surpassed North America. Now the Internet users in China are about 100 million, and the whole United States is about 200 million. However, within three years, it will definitely surpass North America and become the largest single market for Internet users in the world. Even if it is delayed, it is a matter of time."

"China has a huge population of nearly 1.3 billion, and the ceiling of Internet users in North America will be at most 300 million in the next fifteen years. However, China can reach 800 million, and now it is only 100 million. What should we choose between 800 million?"

The representative head of Idg Fund said concisely: "The story is very beautiful, but it is also a blank check, without any guarantee."

Luo Sheng said in an orderly manner: "Although our team lives in the present, we operate the future. We believe that as long as the time period is extended, you can do many things that can't be done under normal circumstances, so we like to do things that will only be rewarded after five to ten years. Wall Street likes fast money or may not be patient, but I believe that when choosing between a small sardine and a blue whale, Wall Street will have more desire for the latter, right?"

"We are willing to sow seeds, and at this point we are very stubborn. Our team is stubborn in vision, but can be flexible in details. Our vision is not just to build a successful listed company..."

Paulson and several other powerful capital circle bigwigs or Internet celebrities looked at each other and whispered and nodded silently from time to time.

Finally, Henry Paulson looked at Luo Sheng for the first time and smiled and said, "Mr. Luo, among the many Chinese faces I have seen, you are one of the few people who show such confidence, and of course the youngest. We all want to further listen to your specific vision and development plan for the company's future."

As Paulson finished speaking, the VCs invited Luo Sheng into the internal conference room of the conference hall. The reporters present undoubtedly wanted to enter and participate, but it was obviously impossible.

Next is an internally undisclosed meeting, where the heads of SoftBank Capital, Morgan Stanley and Sequoia Capital, etc., can enter.

The closed-door meeting lasted for about thirty-four minutes, and the media reporters in the hall were still waiting patiently and did not leave.

Meng Qiu was also staying outside the hall. He couldn't have much friendship with Luo Sheng, but he admired this young man from the bottom of his heart. His calmness and calmness, talking and laughing with those powerful bosses, really impressed him.

There is a saying that a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger, but in Mengqiu's opinion, Luo Sheng is no less than those veterans who have been struggling in the mall for decades when facing these capital tycoons.

Not to mention anything else, just with his storytelling ability, he will never worry about not being able to attract investment. The only uncertainty is how much investment he can attract.

Very good at telling stories!

In his opinion, Luo Sheng's greatest language charm lies in his ability to speak out but not say it, but he talks about the hearts of capitalists, only talking about some concepts of the great era. As for the specifics, he did not say it stupidly.

It is not something that ordinary people can do if they want to say something to the right level.

Facts have proved that these super capitals like to listen to this. Luo Sheng’s current achievements in running a company also provide great confidence for what he explained. Without certain achievements, even if he said that he was full of money, it would be half the result with twice the effort, or even meaningless, because no one would believe it.

The door opened again after closing forty-two minutes. The media reporters present immediately looked at each other, and then everyone was introduced to the internal meeting by the staff.

Meng Qiu was stunned.

Has it really been negotiated?

That's it, and then the negotiation was completed?

...
Chapter completed!
