Don Valentine, the father of venture capital in Silicon Valley, one of the four giants, together with Arthur Locke, John Doerr and Vinod Kos, is known as the "Four Emperors!" His personal resume is very exciting, After graduating from Fordham University, he joined Raytheon and National Semiconductor. These experiences gave him a wealth of experience and vision.
In 1972, he gave up his job for many years and resolutely established Sequoia Capital, which later became a leader in the investment world. He has invested in more than hundreds of companies, including Apple Computer, the computer revolution, Oracle, a database company, and Internet companies such as Cisco. company.
When Jobs and his friends were eating and drinking in the garage, he drove a dazzling Mercedes-Benz to meet them in person. He didn't let go of the investment that later brought him hundreds of millions of dollars. This is also a good story.
Of course, Tang Dao prefers to call this: the dog nose of capital!
Such a person has a natural sense of smell, who else can succeed if he is not successful?
In order to show respect, Tang Dao personally went to greet him at the door of Hilton. A handsome Mercedes-Benz luxury car stopped at the door, opened the door, and a vigorous old man came down from above. He should be an old man. Valentine, who was born in the 1930s, has already He is close to 70 years old, but wealth makes his body full of health. He wears simple casual clothes, but his figure is slightly fatter.
When he saw Tang Dao, he laughed happily, shook hands with him, and then hugged him, with a hoarse voice, "Nice to meet you, the King of War in Africa!"
This kind of teasing nickname is called Tang Dao privately by Wall Street executives. It can only be said that it is bold to call it like Valentine.
But Tang Dao smiled happily, what's the matter? He himself is a despicable and selfish capitalist, all the nicknames are more of a compliment to himself, isn't it? Earth dog!
The two seemed to have known each other for a long time, and they almost held each other's hands, but this scene was still seen by many guests in the hotel.
No matter where they are, the rich are always what people miss the most, so when they saw Valentine and Tang Dao, some insiders were very excited and excited, and they were about to approach, but they were blocked by the bodyguards.
"Mr. Valentine." A man with a camera yelled at him. Valentine looked over and saw the other person excitedly said, "Can I take a photo with you?"
Valentine nodded politely, motioning for the bodyguard to let him in.
Tang Dao stood beside him very consciously, looked at the photo of the other party, and smiled the whole time. After the other party left satisfied, Tang Dao said with a pile of smiles, "Mr. Valentine, you are more popular than Hollywood stars. If you go to Acting is definitely a box office appeal."
He still respects this old man very much, and a capable person is respected everywhere.
Moreover, Tang Dao also wants to find an ally in Wall Street, and even exchanging benefits is not bad. Think about the five hooligans. If you think about it carefully, why do everyone scold each other, but there is so little talking about arms sales? The tricks in it make people think deeply. Of course, Tang Dao doesn't think so much, knowing too much is not good.
Anyway, if you have money, you have to earn it together.
The two went upstairs, and at this time, Jack Kennedy and Charlie, who hadn't rested after hearing the commotion, were also standing at the door. The former obviously had a good relationship with each other, and even gave a face-to-face gift, while the latter was very polite. shook hands.
"You guys from Boston are all here? It looks like you're planning to have a big fight?" Valentine laughed and was still shaking.
Jack shook his head and said with a smile, "How can there be any big business? It's not easy to do now, so I will start a small business with Nicholas." He said and looked at Tang Dao. Two whole millions of words of love and love...
Tang Dao laughed, and the corners of his mouth twitched, with a hint of respect for a dragon. (like me!).
Invite Valentine to enter the room and say that the room costing tens of thousands of dollars a night has a moderate space, and there is also a small living room. Tang Dao raised his hand to signal Valentine to please sit down. He said, "I have longed for Mr. Valentine for a long time. Of course, what I mean is that I want to see you."
"Ha ha ha ha."
A few people laughed, and Valentine spoke very casually, "But you didn't come to see me. Obviously, I miss you more than you miss me." After finishing speaking, he laughed himself.
"I wanted to meet you at the Wall Street party, but I didn't expect you to come in person. If you need it, you can call me, and I can find you." Tang Dao's mouthful of you is still very useful to Valentine At least this young man is not as crazy as in the legend. More than one person has said that Valentine has almost monopolized his business in Africa. Of course, except for those hooligans, it is difficult for private arms dealers to fight against him, so he can only helplessly Accept the offer to work together.
This is actually the decision made by Mister after he became the head of Africa. Of course, the decision makers of this method are think tanks!
The Savior Company only has Soviet products, which is obviously not acceptable. For many buyers with special hobbies, the choice of such sellers is too low. At this time, many outsiders who cannot open the market force their way in. , the market share will definitely decrease, so he found a few more representative outsiders to cooperate with.
For a weapon, the savior charges a 1% handling fee! That is to say, for example, a Steyr-Mannlicher AUG automatic rifle worth 3,100 dollars produced in Austria, the savior will get 31 dollars. Of course, only some mercenaries are willing to buy this kind of high-priced goods, poor people, Who is so lavish?
The think tank has used such means to protect the interests of the savior company in Africa.
Of course, it's not that no one has thought about finding buyers directly, skipping middlemen, hehe, that's Africa! Business is not only about the immediate mess, but also the slobber of lions and hyenas.
In Africa, their savior is the overlord!
Valentine waved his hand, telling Tang Dao not to be so polite, "I just want to meet you. Of course, if you need investment, I'm very happy."
"Of course!" Tang Dao said bluntly.
"Oh? How much does it cost?" Valentine's eyes lit up, and there are unexpected gains?
Seeing how excited he was, Tang Dao stretched out his finger, "1 billion dollars?"
"Uh..." Valentine found it difficult to speak immediately. He was rich, but that was worth, not cash flow. If he took out so much money at one time, he would have to sell some of it. He didn't want to talk immediately. Would love to change the subject.
Perhaps Tang Dao also saw his stubbornness, so he hurriedly said, "Of course, I don't have any idea of selling shares now, and I'm still waiting for the day when he goes public."
Valentine was also quick to answer, "I will definitely give you financing when the time comes."
Are people on Wall Street all that hypocritical?
Finally, Valentine also said what he really meant. He sipped his coffee and sat up straight, "Actually, I came here to buy Yahoo shares from you."
Sure enough, I fell in love with this.
"100 million dollars, I want all your shares."
"I'm sorry, Mr. Valentine, I don't have this idea. I think I don't need this money at the moment."
This golden rooster is about to lay eggsHow could it be possible to let go.
Valentine also knew that the other party would not agree, so he sighed, "It's a pity, I'm fine, but you have to be careful of other people, there are too many people on Wall Street whose methods are not clean."
"I believe in the law here." Tang Dao still said so calmly, with dimples on his face when he smiled.
He believes that the law here does not punish people with death. Tang Dao likes unclean places, too clean, which is too fake. He is soft in everything, even physical attacks are very hard, and he still has bones.
Moreover, Valentine is so good to come here just to talk about this matter?
I'm afraid I also want to watch a play.
This old man wants to fish in troubled waters.
