Under Wang Lei's repeated emphasis, Robert attached great importance to this investment.

He personally took people to Shenzhen for inspection, and Brother Xiao Ma warmly received him in an office building.

Cayman Capital is one of the top investment banks on Wall Street. Sequoia Capital, which emerged in the Internet era, can only be said to be a small Karami in front of it.

Xiao Ma didn't expect that Robert would go there in person, and his mood was almost the same as when Wang Lei personally recruited him.

However, after seeing the tyranny of the South African newspaper industry, he was not interested in foreign capital and felt that Robert and mih would generally put forward the same conditions.

"The number of users of your company's product Penguin Chat is about to exceed [-] million?"

Facing Robert's question, Xiao Ma took the initiative to admit:

"Registered users are indeed about to exceed 2 million, but many people have two accounts at the same time, or even more..."

Even so, Robert was still very surprised by this number, but considering that Long Country was a country with a large population and that there were Internet cafes full of small counties, he felt that it was natural.

It was then that Robert and his team members realized that they had almost missed an Internet company with potential comparable to Amazon.

Judging from their experience in investing in many Internet companies, Penguin’s size and future achievements will definitely exceed that of Yahoo.

What's more, the purpose of the other party's financing is to make games. After seeing the terrifying revenue capability of Legend, no one will question that Penguin with such a large number of users will not make money.

Brother Xiao Ma looked at several pensioners muttering in low voices, and his heart was full of expectation and uneasiness.

Will the giant that suddenly appears surprise him?

It was said to be a discussion, but in fact the decision-making power rested entirely with Robert. He signaled everyone to be quiet and said to Brother Ma:

"We at Cayman Capital intend to lead this round of financing and give it a valuation of US$[-] million!"

Several people who started the business with Brother Xiao showed expressions of shock and excitement.

They thought that the valuation given by mih was already very high, but they did not expect that Cayman Capital would be even higher!

It's a bit ridiculously high...

Xiao Ma was extremely excited, and even though he was mature, he couldn't help but smile with joy.

Finally someone realizes the true value of penguins.

One dollar per user is the price of a novice gift package, but there are many people who spend hundreds of thousands in the game.

However, Robert also had a request. He coughed and interrupted the discussion of several people.

"However, Penguin's founding team must sign a gambling agreement with us. Please note down the points I tell you."

"Mr. Robert, please speak."

“First point, we hope that Penguin will maintain its current user growth rate and reach 3 million registered accounts within two years!

The second point is that within two years, the game platform launched by Penguin has exceeded 1000 million people online at the same time, making it the largest game platform in China.

The third point is to create an ecological matrix with Penguin Communications as the center and launch at least three service-oriented software within two years. "

After hearing these three conditions, Xiao Ma realized that he had truly met a knowledgeable master.

These three things are what Xiao Ma wants to do in the future. Obtaining [-] million users is the easiest one.

What is more difficult is that the number of people online at the same time on the game platform reaches 1000 million.

The game platform is still under development, and they are not confident that they can do it well.

Brother Ma signaled others not to speak in a hurry. He looked at Robert and asked:

"If the valuation is US$[-] million, how many shares will Cayman Capital lead?"

"4000, 40% of the shares!"

Hearing this, Brother Ma couldn't help but frown. Sure enough, Cayman Capital put forward the same conditions as mih, and they both wanted to be Penguin's largest shareholder.

As a result, their founding team’s shareholding will be reduced to 30.6%.

"Why, is it because we don't have enough money, or do you have no confidence in your products and operational capabilities?"

Facing Robert's fierce general, Xiao Ma smiled and said:

"Of course not, because there is another company in Hong Kong City that wants to invest in our Penguin. They can help Penguin be listed in Hong Kong City, so they are an indispensable part of us."

"Are you talking about Li Er's Yingke Group?"

The two of them tacitly excluded mih.

Who makes them ambitious, but they can't offer more favorable conditions than Cayman Capital.

Brother Ma nodded and said:

"Otherwise, how about we give Yingke Digital 8% of the shares and Cayman Capital takes 3200 million for 32%?"

If the shares are distributed according to this plan, Cayman Capital will still be the largest shareholder, followed by Xiao Ma's team, then Wang Lei's Bailong Consortium, and finally Li Ershao.

Brother Xiao Ma feels that in this way, several forces will be checked and balanced, and no party will have the absolute right to speak.

Robert could see through the other person's thoughts at a glance and felt that Brother Ma was joking. If Boss Wang wanted to control Penguin, it would only be a matter of one sentence, but he knew that Wang Lei had never had such an idea.

"Okay, I have no objection."

After hearing this, everyone on Penguin's side breathed a sigh of relief. They felt that Cayman Capital was easier to deal with than Mih and was more professional in the investment industry.

Faced with the investment plan agreed upon by the three parties, Li Ershao, who had been taken advantage of, felt that it was a bit expensive, but he still happily paid for it and took out 800 million US dollars.

The news reached the ears of the richest man Li Qian, and he immediately called Mr. Li for questioning.

"Internet users, don't look at the tens of millions of users. They are extremely watery. It might be another Internet bubble. And you have invested 800 million US dollars in one fell swoop. What kind of company needs so much money?"

Li, the former richest man, felt that his youngest son had been deceived, so he couldn't help but give some advice.

Li Ershao didn't mean to refute him. He also felt that the investment was a bit expensive, but he still said:

"This is a business introduced by Ah Lei, and he holds 29.4% of the shares."

"Wang Lei introduced me."

Then there is no problem. The former richest man Li couldn't help but lectured:

"Are you going to invest in the projects he likes?"

“This round was led by Cayman Capital, and they invested US$3200 million!”

“Ah, Cayman Capital also participated in the financing.”

The richest man Li was speechless. Wang Lei and Caiman both had financing, so this was definitely a guaranteed profit.

His tone changed and he lectured again:

"Then why don't you vote more?"

Second Young Master Li's head is full of questions. Dad, did you change your attitude too quickly?

"Boy, can you ask Penguin if there is..."

Li Ershao responded directly: "There is no chance. Penguin, which is well-funded, has raised so much money just for the direct listing. If it were not for the ability of our Li family to run the listing, we would not have a share at all."

"Ok."
