I am reborn and just want to concentrate on my studies

Chapter 391 A blessing in disguise [5K! 】

"Huh? Do you raise fish?"

The case at hand finally came to an end. Jiang Lili's father, Jiang Song, was in a very good mood. He was sitting on the sofa and browsing the news on his tablet. He suddenly noticed a fish tank on the TV cabinet, with several small fry wandering carefree in it. He asked casually, putting down the tablet in his hand and taking off his glasses. At this time, Wang Huamei thoughtfully handed over hot tea and fruit.

"Those fry? They belong to your precious daughter."

"Why did she suddenly think of raising fish?"

"I don't know, I can raise it if I want."

"Why are you raised here?"

"They said they wanted me to help foster her for a few days." Wang Huamei poked a piece of cut apple with a toothpick and handed it to Jiang Song.

"Oh...where is she?"

"I don't even know how to call and care."

"Energy is limited...can only be given to one woman..." Jiang Song took a bite of the apple and replied casually while chewing it.

"Fake..." Even though she was middle-aged, Wang Huamei blushed a little at the sweet words. She sat down next to him and said seriously: "I'm going to Qiongzhou for vacation."

"Oh... hmm? Alone?"

"With his boyfriend."

Jiang Song was silent for a moment, and silently grabbed a piece of apple with his hand.

Wang Huamei deliberately wanted to tease her husband and said, "I have met his boyfriend."

"When did this happen?"

A strange light flashed in Jiang Song's eyes, but he still asked calmly.

"Well...a while ago."

"It's really..."

"After all, you are so busy, hehe."

Although Wang Huamei was laughing, Jiang Song couldn't laugh. He turned on the TV and a TV series was playing on the TV. The little girl cried and said to her father: "Dad...don't you want me anymore?"

Jiang Song silently changed the channel, this time using a serious broadcast tone.

"Recently, a fraud case occurred in our city. The perpetrator was a 30-year-old man, who defrauded the victim Xiaoli of 100,000 yuan in savings from working. The suspect has been arrested and the case is under further investigation."

The screen cuts to the interview video of the victim Xiaoli, the mosaic-edited little girl is crying.

"I thought he really liked me... Wuwu..."

Jiang Song turned off the TV a little gloomily.

Wang Huamei had a joking look in her eyes, and with a smile, she inserted a toothpick into another piece of fruit and gave it to him, saying, "Come on, handsome guy."

Jiang Song sighed slightly, did not eat the fruit, but picked up the tea, took a shallow sip, and then asked casually: "How is that...man?"

"Who?" Wang Huamei blinked.

Jiang Song glanced at him somewhat depressedly and snorted: "If you don't tell me, forget it."

Wang Huamei burst out laughing with joy. She didn't care about her image at all. She was about to burst into tears before she said, "Li Li's character looks like yours to me."

Jiang Song grabbed a piece of fruit with his hand, took a bite, and the juice splashed.

Wang Huamei did not answer Jiang Song's question, but turned around and went to the room.

Jiang Song looked at her back with some confusion, but didn't ask any more questions.

After a while, Wang Huamei put on a professional outfit that was only worn on important occasions, looking elegant and like a strong woman.

Jiang Song frowned: "Why are you wearing this?"

"The uniform is tempting."

"..."

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore, do you think my outfit looks good?"

"Good-looking and good-looking..."

"Oh, perfunctory...will love disappear?"

Jiang Song sighed, looked at Wang Huamei carefully, and suddenly his eyes moved, "Well... the color matching is actually a bit old-fashioned, but the brooch on the chest is not bad... huh? I have never seen you wearing this brooch."

Wang Huamei posed in a few poses, showing off her little girl's posture, with her slender calves slightly raised, and a smile on her face. She was obviously very happy, and then she came over with a click and said, "I knew you would pay attention." This brooch…isn’t it nice?”

"Um...when did you buy it?"

"It was given by Li Li's little boyfriend."

"Ah……"

"Okay, don't be unhappy, I will talk to you seriously now."

"I didn't say that I wanted to listen. It was you who wanted to tell it yourself."

"Yes, yes, I shamelessly pestered you to tell you, okay, handsome?" Wang Huamei covered her mouth and smiled.

Jiang Song then smiled and nodded: "Then you say it."

"Li Li's boyfriend...is six years older than him."

"I know this."

"She is more than six years younger than him."

"Oh...huh?"

Jiang Song was stunned for a moment, then silently picked up the cup and took another sip.

"twenty one?"

"Not satisfied yet."

Jiang Song slowly put down the cup, looked at Wang Huamei seriously, thought for a while, and then shook his head: "I disagree."

"I think the kid is pretty good."

"You women...can't look at this like this."

"Then... what do you think?" Wang Huamei sat down next to Jiang Song, gently put her hand on his shoulder, and stared at him.

"Are you still studying at this age? Your thinking is immature and you have little experience. Also... don't make trouble, stop making trouble, that's it... ugh..."

"whee……"

This matter is not as serious as Yi Yang imagined.

When he returned to Tunghai University, Ma Wenwu had been released.

In the commercial street office, he smoked a cigarette silently. Next to him, Huang Shanshan sat there with a complicated expression, while the other two shareholders were not there.

After Yi Yang arrived, Huang Shanshan's eyes suddenly lit up and he shouted: "Yi Yang, you're here!"

Ma Wenwu did not raise his head to look at Yi Yang, but still smoked silently with a thoughtful expression.

Huang Shanshan stood up, took the paper cup, ran to the water dispenser to get a glass of water, brought it to Yi Yang, hesitated, and whispered: "It's good if you're here...Senior, he...he, um , you can ask him yourself."

Yi Yang casually took the boiling water, sat down opposite Ma Wenwu, and looked at him with a calm expression.

Ma Wenwu looked a lot more haggard, but his eyes were not sluggish. Instead, there was something indescribable, like a young eagle that had just learned to fly, and there was a sharp feeling deep in his eyes.

Seeing Ma Wenwu's state, Yi Yang understood in his heart that a lot of things must have happened in the past few months, and there must have been difficulties, but it was not necessarily a bad thing. At least Ma Wenwu seemed to have gained something at the moment.

After a while, the cigarette butt burned out. Ma Wenwu threw the cigarette butt into the paper cup filled with water. He looked at Yi Yang apologetically and said, "Sorry, I was thinking about something seriously just now, so I didn't Say hello to you."

"Well, I don't care about that." Yi Yang picked up the cup and took a sip before saying, "Tell me what happened."

Ma Wenwu nodded and said calmly: "A lot of things did happen. I'll tell you slowly."

When Ma Wenwu was speaking, Huang Shanshan closed the door very sensibly, poured another glass of water, put a glass in front of Ma Wenwu, and then sat down next to him.

Ma Wenwu is worthy of being a top student in software engineering at Donghai University. His technical ability can definitely overwhelm most people in the industry. In addition to what he learned in school, he has internship experience in many large factories and exchange student experience abroad. , all provided him with a wealth of experience and abilities, and being a program engineer also depends on creativity. This thing is talent, and Ma Wenwu is definitely a genius in this area.

Yi Yang didn't know much about technical matters, but he probably understood it. With Ma Wenwu's day and night efforts, the latest version of the curriculum software has overcome the problem of incompatibility between the academic administration systems of different universities, and except for a few universities, absolutely Most colleges and universities rely on the Founder Academic Affairs System, and even upgrades will not affect the one-click import function of the software.

This means that this software can truly be rolled out to universities across the country!

With this trump card, Ma Wenwu became confident and ambitious in financing.

“Financing is a real pain.”

"Forecast demand and capacity, search for information, read yearbooks, and even go around for research, just to make the data convincing...and then introduce the founder and team..." Ma Wenwu said with some embarrassment: "Our team tells the truth ...Oh, I am the only one in the core. Fortunately, I have senior student Huang Shanshan. She is really good! She helped me a lot!" After praising Huang Shanshan, she looked at Yi Yang with some embarrassment. , a smile appeared on his face.

"The next step is to introduce products and services, summarize customer pain points, and what are the competitive advantages with similar products..." Ma Wenwu talked endlessly about the difficulty of this period of time with Yi Yang. Although it was lengthy, Yi Yang Listening carefully, having a competent listener will really make people feel better after talking. After talking for a while, Ma Wenwu's depression during this time seemed to have dissipated a lot.

“And now I’m beginning to understand why many PE companies or venture capital companies often have very high academic qualifications, and some companies even require a doctorate to get in... Because with slightly more cutting-edge technology and less academic qualifications, it’s simply not possible. can't read."

“Both the company’s valuation and the proportion of equity sold must be clearly stated.”

"Our logic and that of investors are completely opposite. They hope that the lower the valuation, the better, and the higher the proportion of equity sold, the better. We are just the opposite, and this is the space for gaming."

"Oh? What's the final result?" Yi Yang asked curiously.

Huang Shanshan whispered: "The logic of corporate valuation is that value determines price. Traditional valuation methods are divided into two categories, relative valuation methods and absolute valuation methods... However, these valuation methods involve "Realistic quantitative indicators such as profits are somewhat disadvantageous for Internet companies like us."

Ma Wenwu took over the conversation and said: "Indeed, although we are not profitable now, we have traffic, daily activity, and users, so you must give us a formula, using price-earnings ratio, net profit, and net assets Ah, wait for the messy indicators to be multiplied, multiplied, divided and divided to calculate the valuation, I am definitely not used to it.”

Yi Yang nodded and said: "There are indeed obvious differences between Internet start-ups and traditional enterprises. Fixed costs are high, marginal costs are declining, and intangible assets account for a relatively large proportion. Using traditional valuation methods will definitely be very detrimental to us. I read some articles, Wall Street’s DEVA model is more suitable for the valuation of companies like ours.”

"Yes, so we negotiated with several companies but failed to reach agreement. In the end, Tianfeng Capital was willing to give us a reasonable valuation."

Having said this, Ma Wenwu seemed a little excited.

"Ten million levels!"

"Ten million levels?"

Yi Yang touched his chin and suddenly asked curiously: "Well... Tianfeng Capital, is it PE?"

Ma Wenwu was stunned and looked at Huang Shanshan.

"Yes." Huang Shanshan nodded.

"The PE company is also working on such a small project?"

Generally speaking, PE companies tend to do large projects worth tens of millions or even hundreds of millions. A small project with a valuation of 10 million only requires an investment of several million, which is really not worth it.

This level of investment is often done by VC, that is, venture capital.

Huang Shanshan said: “In fact, in recent years, the business boundaries between PE and VC have not been so obvious. The successful cases of Sequoia Capital and Hillhouse Capital investing in Internet companies have begun to make many PEs put aside their efforts to invest in start-up companies. , and some VCs have also begun to try to do some big projects..."

Yi Yang glanced at Huang Shanshan in surprise. He didn't expect that she, who didn't understand anything a few months ago, would have such knowledge now.

"Then what's going on with the Public Security Bureau?"

As soon as he mentioned this, Ma Wenwu became a little excited and slammed the table angrily: "Huh, it's obviously a competitor's dirty tricks!"

Yi Yang frowned: "Competitor?"

Ma Wenwu sneered: "There are actually many similar class schedule apps on the market, but because of our one-click import core functions, most of them can't compete with us. There is only one called Cicada Course Schedule, although it does not have one-click import Import functions, but you can compete with us."

"Cicada curriculum? They..."

Ma Wenwu took a sip of water, calmed down a little, and said, "They used a tricky method. Instead of starting with technology, they relied on agents to achieve full coverage of the curriculum."

"agent?"

"It means directly paying students from corresponding universities to upload their course schedules for the convenience of other students."

"Huh? A bit primitive..." Yi Yang was thoughtful.

"Yes, but for students, there is no problem with the experience. It may even be better, because students who actually use it do not need to log in to the academic administration system when using it, which saves one or two steps." Ma Wenwu added : "But it is not without its shortcomings. After all, it costs money and cannot cover too many universities. Moreover, there are many errors and omissions when uploaded by student agents, so compared with us, it can only be regarded as half a catty."

"But... alas, they got the investment first, and it was from Penguin Capital. It is said to be tens of millions! They are richer than us..."

"Oh, and then, how did they send you to the police station?"

Ma Wenwu sighed slightly: "Someone maliciously reported that we maliciously obtained permission to log in to the academic management system and violated students' personal privacy information, so I was asked to cooperate with the investigation."

Huang Shanshan also said with some sadness: "Not only that, but there are many troll posts on the Internet attacking this point. Many students don't know why, and they also start to question whether our software infringes on their privacy..."

Yi Yang thought for a while, "Is there any..."

"Nonsense! What's the use of other information from their educational system..." Ma Wenwu said gloomily: "Except for pulling the course schedule, I don't have any extra operations at all. Do they really think that the code is free? "

After a pause, Ma Wenwu gritted his teeth: "But just because of this incident, Tianfeng Capital is also skeptical about our project. This is the key issue we need to solve immediately. I was thinking about this just now." One thing…how to reverse this decline.”

Yi Yang touched his chin and asked thoughtfully: "Well... is the person in charge of this project at Tianfeng Capital a top computer student?"

"How is this possible? They don't understand technology at all."

"That would actually be easier to handle." Yi Yang smiled, "In fact, this matter should be viewed dialectically. How can you know that a blessing in disguise is a blessing in disguise?"

"Is this a blessing?" Ma Wenwu was stunned: "I don't see where the blessing is at all..."

Yi Yang said: "The trolls on the Internet are very conspicuous, right? People at Tianfeng Capital are not fools, and they can definitely tell that someone is maliciously smearing them. If they are really stupid, please explain a little bit."

"So what? It doesn't prove that it was the Cicada Curriculum that did it."

"No need to prove it, just say so next time you talk to them..."

"Let's just say, does our software have potential? I know that no matter how I describe our core technology, you will not be skeptical. After all, professionals do professional things... However, recently we have been maliciously reported and trolled. Malicious attacks... When talking about this, come up with some actual evidence to prove that it is indeed malicious reports and trolls, and then continue: Why are we being attacked with such despicable means? Obviously, we This app has touched the sore point of some people...it was suppressed by peers. What does this mean? It means that our technology cannot be easily copied, and it has great potential!"

Yi Yang continued: "Professional people do professional things. Since they are not investors in computers, they definitely don't understand how powerful your core technology is, so they hesitate. But it happened to be proven by the people in Cicada's curriculum Well, your core technology is really awesome! If they are smart enough, they should make decisions here."

Hearing this, Ma Wenwu's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he slapped his thigh: "Why didn't I think of that!"

Having said this, Yi Yang reached out to get the cup, but found that the cup was empty, so he stopped drinking water. But at this moment, Huang Shanshan quickly took the cup, ran over to get the water, and then put it on Yi Yang's side. In front of the sun.

Eyes full of adoration.
