Chapter 136 Future Technology Has Begun To Make Profits
February 10th.
Maybach, Bentley, Mercedes-Benz S600 and other high-end cars appeared at the gate of Hilton Hotel.
In the car, foreigners with blond hair and blue eyes got out.
"Wow, so many foreigners!"
"What's going on?"
"I'll go! That's Henry Paulson, the head of Goldman Sachs!"
“And Damon Morgan, CEO of JPMorgan Chase!”
"Hiss~ What's going on at Hilton today? So many big names in the financial world are here!"
"Look, that's my idol, the stock god Warren Buffett!"
"Hiss! Even the stock god is here, my God!"
"You don't even know this? Today is the day when Future Technology launches Series C financing!"
"So that's it! I didn't expect that these top Wall Street giants would come in person for Future Technology's Series C financing.
The customers staying at the Hilton Hotel almost dropped their eyes when they saw this scene.
no way.
Who allowed these top Wall Street tycoons to suddenly appear here and let them encounter them?
Whether it's Henry Paulson, Damon Morgan, or Warren Buffett, these are all well-known names in the financial world.
Who in China doesn’t want to have dinner with the stock god Buffett?
After the shock, pride appeared on these people's faces.
Because these top predators are here for future technology.
And Future Technology is the Internet company of their Dragon Kingdom!
Isn’t it worth being proud to have these top predators come in person?
Although they have nothing to do with future technology, they have nothing to do with Yourong.
The media who had been waiting outside the Hilton Hotel for a long time were also taking pictures non-stop.
Not only domestic media, but also foreign mainstream media such as Reuters, Bloomberg, the New York Times, BBC, etc. all sent people to stay in advance.
Luxury cars stopped in front of the Hilton, and international financial tycoons got out of the cars.
Everyone can see that this time the industry attaches great importance to the Series C financing of future technologies.
Otherwise, the heads of these top institutions would not come all the way by plane.
The previous rounds of financing were all handled by domestic responsible persons.
But this time, not only Henry Paulson and others, but also Sun Zhengyi of Softwin, Xiong Xiaoge of IDG and others are here.
In addition to these familiar institutions, Goldman Sachs and other institutions also brought in several new capital parties, naturally to spread risks.
They will definitely invest in future technology, it’s just a question of how much to invest.
Nowadays, the valuation of future technology continues to rise. It is no longer tens of millions or hundreds of millions before, but now it is billions, and the unit is rice gold!
Lu Yi and other company executives have been waiting at the Hilton for a long time.
Seeing Henry Paulson and others arriving, he walked up to greet him enthusiastically.
"Welcome, Mr. Paulson."
"Mr. Buffett, I didn't expect you to come."
"Lu, I am very optimistic about your future technology. I believe that under your leadership, future technology will become a great Internet company."
In the conference hall.
There are many boss characters and their aura is very impressive.
The people sitting here right now are all real big guys, stomping their feet, beings that would make the global financial world tremble.
However, Lu Yi is someone who has seen big scenes and is not panicked at all.
At this time.
Henry Paulson spoke.
However, he did not praise Future Technology for its good results or anything like that, but he seemed to be taking issue with it.
Just listen to him say: "Lu Yi, although the development of future technology is unstoppable at this stage and has been recognized by a large number of users around the world, the company has not yet brought in 1 US dollar in revenue, but you have taken 94 million US dollars from investors. , what we are focusing on now is not the data growth of future technology, but doubts about whether it can be profitable."
Other investors have also turned their attention to Lu Yi, which means a lot.
The pace of development of future technology is indeed very fast. Every product launched has been recognized and loved by users. All the data are very gratifying, but only the benefits are hard to describe.
Their purpose of investing in future technology is to make profits and make money.
If future technology cannot help them make money, then no matter how much money they invest in future technology, it will be meaningless. It is just a data brush.
Henry Paulson's words were not to question whether future technology would be able to make money, but to implicitly remind Lu Yi that whether it is Xiaonei.com or Face, there are already enough users, and the traffic can be monetized. Our investments Some people can't wait.
Lu Yi smiled and said: "Mr. Henry Paulson, I'm afraid the information you got is out of date. It's not that our future technology can't make a penny, it's already starting to make a profit."
As soon as these words came out, everyone present was stunned.
Will future technology become profitable?
How come they don't know?
Lu Yi once said that Xiaonei.com will not make money from advertising until the user base reaches the target of 300 million.
They also knew that Henry Paulson's words just now could only give Lu Yi eye drops, and they had no hope of forcing Lu Yi to submit.
But now Lu Yi actually takes the initiative to say that Future Technology has begun to make profits.
Could it be that Lu Yi is planning to give up the small goal of 300 million?
Lu Yi said: "Everyone here should know the parking space grabbing game developed by our company, right? Our future technology will earn 1 million RMB through this game."
"10 million RMB!"
Everyone who heard this was shocked again.
Although 10 million RMB is nothing in their eyes, it still surprised them!
and.
This 10 million yuan was only earned from the small game of grabbing parking spaces.
If future technology really opens up products such as the school network to receive advertising to make money, how terrifying will the income then be?
“In this small game of grabbing parking spaces, we cooperate with major driving schools and help them advertise on it, thereby increasing their student base.
"Let's not talk about the foreign driving school market, let's talk about Longguo. With the development of the domestic economy and the improvement of people's living standards, vehicles will no longer be a luxury product, but will gradually enter the homes of ordinary people and become ordinary industrial consumer goods. 090"
"And to drive, you must have a driver's license and go to a driving school to learn to drive."
"The Dragon Country has a population of 1.3 billion. Even if only 1% of the people learn to drive [that's still a base of 13 million."
"Assuming that the tuition fee is 2,000 yuan per person, you can calculate how big is the driving school market in Longguo?"
As soon as these words came out, many people breathed quickly.
26 billion market!
"The driving school wants to advertise on our parking spaces, and the advertising fee is calculated on a monthly basis.
"Just last month, the Qingyun Driving School in Suzhou City was purchased for a price of 1.2 million."
"Based on the average price of 400,000 yuan a month, the advertising revenue for parking spaces in 600 prefecture-level cities across the country would be 240 million yuan a month.
"Of course, this is the ideal value."
"Then I will directly discount it in half on this basis. Even if the revenue is 100 million, it will still be 1.2 billion in one year!"
"This is just the driving school market in Longguo. What if we expand this scope to the whole world?"
Everyone was shocked by Lu Yi's words.
Even Henry Paulson's breathing became slightly rapid.
He also said before that Future Technology has not made a penny yet, but Lu Yi immediately slapped him in the face with the data.
This is not even making money by advertising on Xiaonei.com or Face. It is just advertising on the small game of grabbing parking spaces, and it will make at least 1 billion in profit in Longguo a year.
Expanding to a global scale, the units after 1 billion can be exchanged for rice gold. .
