Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant

"Win in China" selected the top 108 in June, and it officially started in July. I was going to invite Qu Li, but he went to the United States temporarily for business, and he has not reported yet.

Qu Li was not there, but "Chasing Dreams and Hearts" became the theme song of Winning China. Qu Li's success made the overall quality of the contestants in the second season a lot higher, and the corresponding judges became sharper. Quite a few arguments.

But no matter what, the second Qu Li did not appear in the show, but some people imitated his Shamat style and unruly, which caused a lot of jokes.

"Not every junior high school student can become Qu Li. Who can master a foreign language in such a short period of time like him, and can brag in front of me and Silicon Valley bosses without changing face or heartbeat, you can surpass He..." Jack Ma's comment quickly became a trending search. Someone originally said that Qu Li was one of the three writers born in the 1980s, and later said that he was the most famous entrepreneur born in the 1980s. Now Jack Ma said that Qu Li was bragging, Things get complicated.

Some people said that Jack Ma was afraid of Jumei's rapid development, so he wanted to suppress him. Some people used this to promote the breakup between Jumei and Taobao. A grammatical error, but he can speak smoothly, without any tension in it...

Then Qu Li once again became a hot topic with "Win in China", and Jumei benefited a lot from it. Of course, the increase in categories has increased user activity, and the sales of Xiangyun's single-product hits have grown even more rapidly in summer. Many people introduced their friends to Jumei to buy.

The best sellers should be 39 yuan T-shirts, followed by 99, 149, and 199 yuan high-quality shirts, 49 yuan canvas shoes, and 29 yuan deodorant slippers.

The most important factor stimulating Jumei's sales surge should be the free shipping for orders over 79 yuan and the support of cash on delivery in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen. In order to make the financial data look good, Jumei has worked hard up and down.

After learning about what happened during this period, Qu Li had an indescribable feeling. Some people on the Internet made fun of Qu Li with the recently popular "The Wind Rises", saying that he was not good at singing. Do you want him to say that he is better than Piao Shu? Readers will kill him.

But Qu Li doesn't need to do it, "Night Sky", "Xian'er", "Chizixin", "The Wind Rises" Qu Li wrote these four songs. There are too many people who like them. If you don’t ridicule, not many people know that the lyrics are written by Qu Li. Yes, after talking too much, many people praised Qu Li's well-written lyrics. Many black fans were so depressed that they had to admit that Qu Li was the strongest junior high school student on the surface.

He didn't have time to deal with the doubts from the outside world. He still had a lot of things to deal with. Lehman and other venture capitalists responded positively and rushed to the meeting soon. Perhaps the sharp drop in international crude oil a few days ago made James full of smiles, and Qu Li's cards were a little less.

In the capital market, everyone wants to take the initiative, so that they can get whatever they want. Qu Li has gradually accepted the rules of the game, and has nothing to worry about with the grasshoppers after autumn. Besides, the private equity team of Lehman Brothers in China is doing really well.

It is a matter of company secrets, and there is an obligation of confidentiality to attend the board meeting. Qu Li presented the results of this period of time: coconut shoes that have applied for an international patent, the shopee group buying model in the United States, and Brady, the team leader from Amazon, and Facebook. strategic cooperation agreement.

The scene was quiet, except for the sound of reactionary documents, there was no big gasp. Shen Nanpeng scolded himself in his heart, since you have invested in Qu Li, why didn't you stick to it and join in the fun with Lehman's people so quickly? Was slapped in the face.

"How could Facebook sign such an advertising cooperation contract with Shopee?" How could Andrew see this contract as a bit fake, why did they give away so much profit, and locked in three years of development, limiting the price increase of advertising cooperation within five years...

"I spent 50 million US dollars on Facebook with my personal funds, and only bought 1% of the shares, so I changed the current contract." Qu Li Bafeng Fudo

"..."

Xiong Ge finally couldn't help raising his head, this kid is really courageous, he deserves to do great things, even Facebook dares to vote.

"real?"

"I think there will be news coming out of the United States soon."

Andrew has investigated Qu Li's wealth. He doesn't know about the situation in China, but he knows about it through friends abroad through HSBC. It seems that there are many sources of wealth that his friends don't know about. Lehman Brothers only had a little understanding of the domestic rules of the game, so they did not reach an internal consensus on Qu Li, a young rich man with a somewhat mysterious relationship background.

"Your results have exceeded our expectations."

"I don't want to hear these things. How determined is Lehman to promote Jumei's listing? I want to see your sincerity. In addition, my efforts must be rewarded. How should Jumei compensate me? Can you get Come up with a plan?"

"No problem, it should be." Andrew heard that Qu Li only wanted 1% of Facebook shares for US$50 million, so he naturally knew that a large part of the premium was for advertising cooperation.

But what Andrew didn't know was that shopee had extra value to Facebook, otherwise even if Qu Li had money, Zuckerberg might not have signed such a contract with Qu Li.

The structure of the two sides is different, and the problems are naturally different. For example, there was a social game company called Zynga, whose main income came from Facebook. When Zuckerberg felt that these third-party application developers were not needed, he quickly changed. Without attitude, Zynga, which could not get traffic support, soon fell from the cloud.

Whether to support e-commerce or games, Zuckerberg did not make a decision in 2007. Qu Li’s appearance may have coincided with his meeting. Facebook has opened its API interface to the outside world. The third-party application platform has not been around for a long time and has not yet made achievements. So it is possible for them to cooperate.

Jumei has an excellent team and founder, the blessing of world-renowned venture capital, and the cooperation between Quli and Google, all of which have influenced Zuckerberg's decision-making.

After Andrew surrendered, Shen Nanpeng and Xiong Ge expressed their support one after another.

"Although I'm not afraid, I still have to ask, Lehman won't be able to help the company go public before Jumei runs out of funds, right?"

"Don't worry, after shopee achieves initial success in North America..." Andrew will have to fight for more resources with the company when he returns home. Jumei might really be a good project.

"Even if it cannot be listed, Jumei will not affect its development due to lack of funds." Andrew gave Qu Li a guarantee.

"I hope so!" Qu Li himself often brags and makes unreliable promises to others, how can he believe that Andrew, an elite investment banker, didn't make it on paper.

Once again, he demonstrated the ability of himself and the Jumei team, and began to discuss the equity incentive plan with these venture capitalists, especially the newly joined Brady. The development of the American business largely depends on his hard work.

Fortunately, the capitalists of Lehman and Sequoia were familiar with the routine, and Brady finally returned to the United States with satisfaction.
