Chapter 569 Is there such a good thing? (For Wen Xikouzi Wan 2/4)
Not a good thing for the company?
Not a good thing for the industry?
Is there such a good thing?
"Old Pei, do you know how many shared bicycles I have seen in Jinling?" Lin Dong quickly came up with a remark.
“More than ten?”
"That was already last month. There are at least twenty types now, especially in places with dense colleges and universities. There are a lot of colorful flowers at the entrance of the school. Our Xiao Huang, Xiao Hong and Xiao Lan are simply inconspicuous."
Lin Dong's words are true and false.
Twenty types are not nonsense, more than twenty types are certain.
In first-tier cities like Jinling, if there are no 20 or 30 types of shared bicycles, it would be abnormal if there are no 20 or 30 types.
However, the three inconspicuous investments belong to Klester are said to be full of moisture.
These three shared bicycles started the earliest and received tens of millions of investment from Klester from the beginning. The helmsman also passed Pei Qianlong's on-site inspection, how could it be behind others?
However, Pei Qianlong had no way to conduct an on-site inspection.
And those three companies that want to launch the third round of financing after a few months will intentionally or unintentionally exaggerate the competitive environment in which the company is located.
Children who can cry have milk to eat.
If you don’t say it a little bit miserable, how could the financial backer’s father give money?
Lin Dong also said the situation was terrible, but it was because he was in a hurry to spend the money.
"Lao Pei, do you know what the healthiest industry is like?" Lin Dong was about to fool him again, but this time the target he fooled was Pei Qianlong.
This is not very difficult.
Therefore, he had to rack his brains and had to come up with some real materials.
If someone else asked Pei Qianlong this question, he would have been very disdainful. Not everyone deserves to talk to him about this issue.
Just like when Zhuge Liang was plowing fields in his thatched cottage, did he have to discuss with others that he would decide the world with three points? If he doesn't like it, he would say, "I am just a plowing field. I don't understand the world. Where is the world? Is it far from our village?"
Fortunately, Mr. Lin is a confidant in his mind.
"Mr. Lin thinks how can the shared bicycle industry get on track as soon as possible?"
"I think there are two ways. One is to do it, turn this into a public utilities, centralized management, and legislative protection. Over time, everyone develops a habit, whether it is used or maintained, they can find a healthy system."
"This is a bit idealistic. The superiors would not interfere so rudely. Now it is a market economy."
Pei Qianlong had similar ideas, but he also knew it was unrealistic. It was precisely because of this unrealistic that capital flocked to it, otherwise who would dare to come in?
"The second type is that the heroes compete for the last time. A unicorn appears, which sets the rules and issues orders."
Lin Dong has really thought about this issue and has read some related analytical reports. After all, his company has invested in three shared bicycle companies.
"It doesn't sound like a good result," said Pei Qianlong.
"But it is an inevitable trend and the most likely result. When resources are allocated uniformly, there is no need to waste it like now."
Nowadays, all companies are launching bicycle products, and various means are not good at competition.
Although users take advantage of the situation to a certain extent, the consequences of the market chaos to a certain extent will eventually be grafted onto the user's head.
"I seem to understand what you mean by Mr. Lin." Pei Qianlong had to admit that although the method Mr. Lin said was stupid, he could not think of a better solution.
Mr. Lin really saw it for a long time.
"Let's help, so that those small capitals that are flying into the flames can waste less resources, and then wait until the time is almost done to escape. What do you think?" Lin Dong asked.
"Hao!" What else could Pei Qianlong say?
The highest point is that Mr. Lin can say that the arrogant competition is so fresh and refined, all for the good of those capitals that are repelled.
As for getting out of here at about the same time, there is no big problem with this. It was negotiated like this before. Pei Qianlong is not optimistic about the short-term future of shared bicycles. The best result is to make a fortune and leave.
Of course, the difference between them is that Lin Dong is thinking about finding a low point in the industry to lose money and leave.
Two days later, Pei Qianlong met with the bosses of three shared bicycles respectively.
The new round is not the A round.
Generally speaking, during the A round, companies will gradually get on track, their strategies will become clearer, and their business models will also become more and more beautiful. The products are recognized by some consumers. If they want to further develop, they need to increase investment, further promote R&D, and promote their products to a larger consumer group. A new round of financing is required.
The premise of A is that the valuation remains unchanged and new capital comes in.
Now that shared bicycles are developing rapidly, products have a certain market size, and the valuation cannot remain unchanged.
Therefore, the new round of financing became a round B.
The three shared bicycle companies are developing relatively high. As soon as they announced that they would raise funds, it immediately caused a lot of capital in the industry to rush.
Even Klester has a large share of the three companies, but it cannot stop them.
Fortunately, if there are many people who want to come in, the threshold will be raised invisibly, and precisely because of the threshold, the people who want to come in must pay more.
The direct result is that the valuation will surge further.
The valuation of the little yellow car in the last round was 350 million.
This time, the valuation is 900 million!
In just three months, it has more than tripled from 350 million to 900 million.
Klester originally had a 45% share, so it would be difficult to maintain such a high share this time, otherwise David would really go crazy.
Klester's Dalong Technology invested 67.5 million yuan, maintaining a 25% share, and the remaining ones were followed by David, Zhen Fund, Weili Capital, Honghe Fund and other companies.
David maintained a 30% share, and the amount that needs to be supplemented will be supplemented by several newly invested companies.
With such huge financial support, David was full of confidence. The only thing that made him unhappy was that Dalong Technology is the second largest shareholder of the company and poses a great threat to him.
But he had no choice in a short time.
However, he received the promise from Pei Qianlong that Dalong Technology would gradually withdraw.
At the beginning, Dalong Technology promised to withdraw gradually in a three-year cycle, but David did not agree. After some verbal negotiations, with the support of several companies later participating in the investment capital, Pei Qianlong promised to withdraw from FOR, which is the Xiaohuangche in the first half of next year.
In fact, if Pei Qianlong strongly refused to withdraw, David and his fans would have no idea.
However, when Lin Dong and Pei Qianlong have no long-term plans, it is better to strive for maximum benefits than to confront them.
For example, before Dalong Technology withdraws, it can maintain a share of no less than 20%.
When exiting, these shares will be recycled at 120% of the valuation value.
