Reborn in 1991, helping dad become the richest man

Chapter 566 Internet Scam?

A few minutes later, when the situation was introduced, Zhang Yang paused and looked at Tang Yichen.

Tang Yichen smiled and said, "Well, it's pretty good, but the number of registered users is still a bit small. After spending so much money, there are only over two million registrations. This traffic is too expensive!"

Zhang Yang felt bitter inside, but he naturally couldn't show any such emotion on the surface. After all, he was not a rookie in the business world.

Besides, he is here to solicit investment today. What is the most important thing in attracting investment?

confidence!

Self-confidence, in other words, means being able to brag so that investors will believe you.

You have a miserable face, who would believe you?

"Mr. Tang, you can't say that. The traffic of dating websites and ordinary websites cannot be treated equally. Dating websites are specifically targeted at men and women of marriageable age. Considering the current number of Internet users in our country, more than two million registered users is actually a lot!"

He was telling the truth. In fact, it was not a dating website that required huge investment. You could register and participate in a lottery, where you could win PP coins, legendary game cards, Huaxing mobile phones, computers, and even motorcycles.

It is impossible for him to get so many registrations at this time when he runs a website like this.

After all, how many Internet users are there in the country now?

At most 20 million.

Most likely not.

In this case, almost one out of eight netizens registers his website.

Just think about it, if this website did not use any means, it would be impossible to reach this number of registrations.

Fortunately, Tang Yichen didn't take this matter seriously with him.

Because Tang Yichen knows that dating websites are not doing well now, but they are destined to be a big business in the future. Not to say it is very big, but at least if it can dominate the domestic market, it will definitely have a market value of tens of billions after listing.

"Alright, I won't belabor the point. My dad said that this time, I can only give you 50 million at most, and as for the shares, it can't be less than 20%!"

Tang Yichen said this in a tone that was completely consistent with a child of this age.

When Zhang Yang decided to start a dating website and expressed his business philosophy and vision for the market, Tang Yichen would not reject him.

Don't say you feel indebted to him.

At least this is not a losing business, but will make a lot of money.

Therefore, investing in this field and spending some money is a small amount for the Tang family now, and it is nothing.

Of course, if he hadn't asked for help, the Tang family wouldn't have taken the initiative to look for him.

For example, in the previous two rounds of financing, he looked for other people, and even the second round of financing was originally from SoftBank.

But the Tang family still has no objection to this.

The Tang family invested in him purely to make money, apart from a little compensation in their hearts, and they never thought of controlling his business.

Let him develop.

And now he comes up again, and it's the same.

Fifty million RMB in exchange for 20% of his shares is a bit much. After all, in the current environment, Tang Xionghua can get 20% of his shares by giving 20 to 30 million.

But after all, he is Zhang Yang, and he has lost the opportunity to become the CEO of a listed company. It’s okay to give him a little help.

At this moment, Zhang Yang's eyes lit up when he heard Tang Yichen's words. He had actually prepared for the worst today. In his eyes, there was no capitalist who didn't suck blood.

In the current environment, he has actually thought about it even if the Tang family does not continue to provide him with financing.

But unexpectedly, Tang Xionghua now said that he could give another 50 million, and only wanted 20% of the shares.

To be honest, his heart is beating faster now.

"Then let's do as you say, Mr. Tang. Twenty percent of the shares, fifty million!"

Zhang Yang was very nervous at the moment. After saying this, he quickly spoke: "Then... Mr. Tang, do you need to call Mr. Tang?"

He was very afraid that Tang Yichen's words would not count.

Although he had discussed the matter with Tang Yichen the first time, the final price was negotiated with Tang Xionghua over the phone.

"Well, I'll call my dad!"

Tang Yichen didn't say anything, but just looked at Zhang Yang's nervous expression. While he felt funny inside, he couldn't help but sigh.

Even the most capable founders are still very humble when facing capital in the early stages of their business!

Not surprisingly, this call was just a formality.

Of course, Tang Xionghua pretended to be serious on the phone.

He also said that Tang Yichen really needs to be taught. How could he expose his bottom line before the other party could say anything during the negotiation?

In response to this, Zhang Yang smiled apologetically.

But the end result is good.

……

On the 25th, the US stock market crashed again, this time because the traffic lie was exposed.

The native population of the United States is just this small.

Always spending money to exchange for traffic.

If they can continue to gain traffic, then the Internet companies that are still alive can really survive. The current situation can indeed be considered sideways.

After a period of time, the market can indeed come back to life.

However, when the facts covered up by capital were exposed.

The US stock market can no longer hold on.

Because according to the American newspaper, at least 50% of listed Internet companies are currently facing traffic depletion.

The United States is not like China, where there are still large numbers of users who have no access to the Internet.

In the United States, where the country is rich and the people are strong, computers are not considered luxury goods, but rather essential household appliances.

Therefore, the Internet penetration rate in the United States is very high.

This has become the sharpest sword stabbing the US stock market.

When the amount of money spent on acquiring traffic reaches its peak, that is, the traffic stops increasing or the growth rate continues to decline, and at the same time, these Internet companies have not truly converted the traffic into a profitable method.

This is the biggest bomb.

The word "Internet scam" suddenly became the cover of many magazines and media news in the United States.

For a time, even though there were other voices, even though capital still wanted to rescue the market, even though capital still wanted to stabilize the market, countless people made other voices.

But it's of no use.

The US stock market, which had been trading sideways for a month or two, was once again like a floodgate opened, with the stock market index plummeting.

"What a pity, there are still 180 million MiGolds that have not been used!"

In the evening, when Tang Xionghua and Tang Yichen were in the study, Tang Xionghua sighed with regret.

Because we don’t know when the sideways trend will end, we don’t spend money in a hurry.

Tang Xionghua ordered the financial team to use at least three times leverage.

Because of this, now that the sideways trend has ended, the 180 million MiG will be completely unspendable.

Nonsense, who would dare to go long at this time?

Even if there are warriors who dare to buy at the bottom, such warriors definitely do not have so much money to go long.

Tang Yichen was quite pleased: "It's okay, it's okay. Isn't it 9.2 billion MiGold positions now? That's enough!"

Tang Yichen was very satisfied.

This time, you can definitely make a lot of money.
