NBA: I, the template Qingfeng Dahui!

Chapter 222 Invest in Twitter, Get Rich!!

Broker Delva’s work efficiency is very high.

In the afternoon of the same day, according to Lin Qing’s request, he prepared 40 million US dollars in cash.

Looking at the sudden extra numbers on his account, even Lin Qing lamented that his earning ability was indeed too strong!

Although Lin Qing’s comprehensive income in a year has exceeded 100 million, there are also many contents contained in it, in addition to contract income, there are various endorsements, signing contracts and so on.

Lin Qing is not a scrooge, and the income he gets is taken care of by the agent to help him invest.

The arrival of 40 million US dollars has also become the largest amount of money on his account, no wonder Lin Qing will be slightly shocked when he sees several zeros behind the number.

After all, it’s one thing to know you can earn so much.

But when cash is on an account, it’s another story.

Less than two months after the official start of the game, you can sit on $40 million, which is not something that ordinary people can achieve.

All this is directly related to the great strength he has shown.

Of course, this is absolutely inseparable from the huge influence of the NBA.

Cash in hand, Lin Qing is full of confidence.

He believes that the Twitter team, which is still in its infancy, will never resist its own banknote ability!

Delva’s side is not idle, and while raising money, he has contacted one of Twitter’s founders, Jack Dorsey, who is now the head of Twitter’s board.

Jack Dorsey was in New York, and was a bit surprised when he heard a basketball sports star contact him and say he wanted to invest in Twitter.

At first, I thought it was a scam call and almost hung up.

It wasn’t until Delva said the name of an industry tycoon, saying that it was the other party’s introduction phone, that Jack Dorsey finally believed it.

Later, when he heard that Lin Qing was going to invest $40 million in himself, he was completely shocked.

Immediately bought the first plane from New York.

In the evening of the same day, in the reception room of the Delva brokerage company, Jack Dorse arrived in the wind and dust.

As soon as he saw Lin Qing, he was momentarily stunned.

“WOW！ Oh my God, it was Lin! ”

“Hello, Lin! I’m a big fan of yours! ”

Although Jack Dorsey is usually busy at work, he is not an IT otaku in his impression, and he usually has a wide range of hobbies, including basketball.

He usually works in Silicon Valley, and the Zhuang team is of course the Golden State Warriors.

But since watching the big game between the Wizards and the Warriors at the beginning of this season and seeing that the Warriors boss Monta Ellis was completely blown up by Lin Qing, he instantly turned to Lin Qinglu.

Later, after paying attention to Lin Qing’s competition many times, he was completely powdered with Lin Qing.

Today, when Delva contacted him, in order to conceal the news, he did not reveal Lin Qing’s identity.

So it wasn’t until Jack Dorsey came here that he was finally pleasantly surprised to find that the investor was his idol!

Just like the performance of fans after seeing the idol, the 33-year-old Jack Dorsey sat opposite Lin Qing, but he looked a little cramped.

In fact, this is not just because Lin Qing is his idol.

The bigger reason was because Jack Dorsey’s trip to New York wasn’t pleasant.

The reason why Jack Dorsey went from Silicon Valley across the United States to New York was to lobby Wall Street bigwigs to invest in their own venture capital.

Although Twitter has been running online for more than two years, it has not formed a profit model

And because smartphones have not yet been popularized on a large scale, the main target group is still stuck on the computer side.

But don’t forget, there is also an insurmountable giant book on the computer side!

The other party wanted to buy Twitter for $300 million last year, but was rejected by several of their founders.

Since then, Facebook has seen him as a potential competitor, constantly suppressing him.

Some of the big venture capital investors were hinted at by Facebook, and all rejected Twitter’s financing requests.

Either it was pushing and shoving, or it was deliberately setting up obstacles that forced him to give up.

At the beginning of this year, we raised $35 million, but now there is very little left.

If it can’t attract investment, Twitter will really have to shut down some servers in order to reduce costs.

Therefore, this time Lin Qing’s shot is tantamount to sending charcoal in the snow!

Jack Dorsey was nervous, even if he was afraid that Lin Qing would be like other investors.

Give yourself a long list of restrictions that simply can’t be met.

Especially when Lin Qing is still a professional basketball player and does not know much about technology companies.

However, after Lin Qing saw Jack Dorsey’s face, he smiled and said, “Hey, Jack, don’t be nervous!” ”

“I invited you here this time to discuss investment, and I think this should be very important for Twitter today!”

Lin Qing’s simple words immediately hit Jack Dorsey’s heart.

He looked at Lin Qing with some surprise, it was hard to believe that a basketball player could have such an extraordinary insight!

Subsequently, Jack Dorsey finally secretly breathed a sigh of relief, took out the financing plan he had invested in Wall Street, and handed it to Lin Qing with both hands.

“Lin, this is our financing plan, which has information about Twitter’s current operations, future development ideas and profit forecasts, you can first understand!”

However, to Jack Dorsey’s surprise, Lin Qing did not take over.

Jack Dorsey’s hands stopped awkwardly in mid-air, and the expression on his face became unnatural again.

Could it be that the other party is deliberately trying to suppress himself?

However, Lin Qing’s next words immediately caused him to break away from the ice cellar.

“Jack, I won’t read the financing plan!”

“To your shock, I have more confidence in Twitter’s prospects than you founders!”

“This financing is already fixed, the only problem is the proportion of shares and some details!”

Hearing this, Jack Dorsey tensed up again.

What Lin Qing said about these are the core issues.

His own trip to New York to raise funds has always failed on this issue.

If you talk about it again this time, then you will really have to return to Jack Dorsey’s heart high and try to say your offer.

“The current shares are divided into a hundred shares, $5 million a share, and a minimum of two shares can be invested, how about that?”

This last question completely exposed his lack of self-confidence.

Of course, Lin Qing would not let go of this opportunity and unceremoniously lowered the price.

“4 million shares, I invest ten shares at a time!” If it doesn’t work, pull it down! ”

Ten shares is exactly $40 million, which is a full 10 million less than the price proposed by Dorsey.

However, Jack Dorsey, who was already close to exhaustion, thought about it for a moment and immediately agreed.

Although Twitter’s valuation has now exceeded $500 million, 40 million yuan accounts for 10% of the equity, which is indeed a bit of a loss.

But for today’s Twitter companies, the valuation is virtual, and it is usually okay to encourage themselves.

The real money and silver invested by Lin Qing is what they need most urgently now!

“Good! Mr. Lin, just as you say! ”

“I don’t know, when will the money be…”

Lin Qing immediately smiled: “Hahaha, Jack, you don’t have to worry, my cash is on the account, as long as I sign, I can get it immediately!” ”

“Just one more small request I have!”

“That is, in the future tweet content review, I must have the right to speak and veto!”

Jack Dorsey had long been blinded by the $40 million cash that was about to arrive, and he still cared about Lin Qing’s small request.

In his expectation, as long as Lin Qing does not direct the development of the company, a little right is also due as a shareholder.

Not to mention that it is only the right to speak about the content review, and now it seems that it is not a big deal.

Therefore, Jack Dorsey couldn’t wait to take out the financing contract from the briefcase and simply sign his name.

After Delva checked that there was no problem with the contract on the side, Lin Qing also signed his name.

The financing, which holds a 10% stake in Twitter, ended happily with a record time.

Lin Qing and Jack Dorsey are very satisfied, especially after Jack Dorsey solved the current dilemma, it is difficult to hide that he is very excited in his heart, and once again seamlessly switches to Lin Qing’s fans, and he has to take a photo with Lin Qing.

It can be said that Jack Dorsey is a very good entrepreneur, but his vision is still inferior to Lin Qing from the future.

He did not know that after the listing of Apple 4 in 2010, it was also a period of rapid growth of the mobile Internet.

It was also from that time that Twitter reached the whole world in one fell swoop, and the number of users almost soared exponentially.

At that time, let alone $40 million, even 400 million, it is impossible to buy 10% of the shares.

Not to mention the more precious tweet content review decision-making power, this power alone is worth more than 1 billion yuan!

Through this investment, Lin Qing has also become the behind-the-scenes helmsman of the future all-media era!
