Chapter 36 Long Distance Love

…

After dinner with Catherine, the two discussed the next development plan of the 'Guo's Business Group' before going home.

After washing up, Guo Shouyun, who was sitting at the desk and turned on the computer, was about to write a novel for a while and found that there was an unread email in his mailbox.

"is her!"

Guo Shouyun was quite surprised when he saw the email address. He opened it quickly, and a line of black fonts instantly came into view.

"Have you returned to America?"

"Well! Just got off the plane today."

Quickly hit the keyboard a few times and send the information. Originally, he thought that he was nearly three hours late to reply to the email, and he would definitely not receive a reply until the next day. But he never expected to receive Molly Bevan's reply in less than half a minute after he clicked to send.

"today?"

"I should have come back earlier, but I encountered something in London before I left, and it was delayed for a few days!"

"So that's what it is! ... By the way, thank you for the gift."

"Like it?"

"I like it. But it's too expensive!"

"Precious only shows my heart!"

After typing this line, there was no reply for half a sound. Obviously, this straightforward answer made Molly Bevan, who had zero love experience, not knowing how to continue.

Guo Shouyun knew that he couldn't be too hasty. So after clarifying my mind, I immediately changed the subject.

"Are you on summer vacation now?"

"Um!"

After seeing the reply, Guo Shouyun hurriedly continued: "When will the school start?"

"In mid-September, but I have already completed the credits and can graduate!"

"I didn't expect you not only to be beautiful, but also to be so good academically." After complimenting, "Since the school starts in mid-September, don't you have more than three months of rest?"

"It's not that long! I'm ready to study for a master's degree. So, after taking a two-week break at home, I have to go to France to sketch with my tutor. After returning to the UK, in addition to taking classes, I have to prepare for the Berlin Biennale! There is almost no time for rest. !"

"This is really bad news. I also want to invite you to travel to the United States. Now San Francisco is the most beautiful time of the year!"

"If time permits, I will go to the United States at the end of August!" After a pause of more than half a minute, Guo Shouyun received a reply from Molly Bevin again.

"real?"

"Well, Cole is going to Columbia University as an exchange student for a year this year! I'll report with him!"

"Cole?"

"My brother! Sophomore at Durham University!"

Guo Shouyun, who was inexplicably relieved, quickly replied: "When you get here, I will show you around!"

"Hmm!...it's late...!"

"Then take a rest, we'll talk tomorrow night!"

"Okay, bye!"

"goodbye!"

After typing the last character, Guo Shouyun breathed a sigh of relief. From the current situation, everything is developing in a good direction. However, he didn't have much confidence in the outcome of the long-distance relationship. But at least from the current situation, a long-distance relationship seems to be the most suitable for him now.

After subconsciously glanced at the email address in the list next to him that he had specially marked, but still had no movement, he sighed somewhat disappointedly, and minimized the email address to the status bar.

There has been no email from Yang Lishan for three months, let alone a phone call. It can only explain one problem. She has really become a thing of the past for her.

Shaking his head, picking up his mood, he opened the folder representing "Smart: Ghost Shadow Record", and continued to write.

…

After half an hour of running and having breakfast, Guo Shouyun rode a bicycle bought by Wendy Solo to LinkedIn's office area.

As a result, as soon as the door was opened, before he could get in, he was hit by a reckless guy.

"Sorry, Boss, are you okay?"

Looking at the young girl whose face was pale in front of him, Guo Shouyun didn't want to criticize the other party.

"It's okay, be careful next time!"

After the girl nodded vigorously, she quickly moved out of the way.

After finishing his clothes, Guo Shouyun couldn't help frowning when he walked into the office and saw the desks and chairs stacked together.

Greeting the respectful greetings from the employees all the way, he walked into his office, put his briefcase aside temporarily, sat in a chair and thought for a moment, then got up and picked up the phone on the table.

"Let Wendy come to my office."

"Boss, Team Leader Wendy is not here!"

An unfamiliar young female voice came from the phone. Thinking of the task he had given to Wendy, Guo Shouyun didn't ask the reason.

"Who are you?"

"I'm Halle Defoe from the secretariat, and I just entered the company as an intern last month!"

"Got it. You immediately notify Minister Martin and President Tim and have them come to my office."

"Yes!"

After putting down the phone, it didn't take long before a knock on the door rang. But before Guo Shouyun could speak, the closed door was pushed open from the outside.

Looking at Martin Alexander who didn't care, and Tim George with a wry smile behind him, Guo Shouyun knew what was going on without asking. However, Martin has not experienced social polishing, and his heart is pure, Guo Shouyun does not think so.

"Sit down and talk!"

"Bruce, my development department needs to add more people. Otherwise, if they work overtime, they will go to the union to sue me!" Martin shouted as soon as he sat down.

"There is no problem with adding people. But is the 'personal page' online?"

"Just went online yesterday!"

Martin Alexander said excitedly.

"That's good, let's continue to develop the 'recommendation letter' program!"

"As long as you give me enough manpower, any development will be fine!" Martin assured, patting his chest.

After smiling and nodding, Guo Shouyun turned his attention to Tim George who was on the side.

"Tim, how many registered members does the company have now?"

"The latest statistic is 1.69 million!"

"More than doubled from last month!"

"Yes. With the continuous improvement of our website functions, the growth rate of new users will be faster and faster. According to the current development trend. By the end of the year, we can have at least 10 million registered users!" Tim George's tone excited.

"Not bad! ... Is the company profitable now?"

"Already there. Not a lot though, only $48,000 in revenue. And we spent $238,000 last month! With the company's current growth rate, there's only enough money on the books for us to spend four more. months!"

Guo Shouyun nodded.

"Don't worry about money. This time I brought you here to discuss venture capital with you!"

"VCs?"

After Martin Alexander and Tim George looked at each other, the former couldn't wait to say, "Bruce, have you found a VC?"

"Well! ... Otherwise, why do you think I left the company during this time?"

"Boss, how are the other party's conditions?"

"Very generous! Invested 15 million US dollars, accounting for 30% of the shares! No involvement in the management of the company, only independent non-executive directors are established to supervise the operation and finance of the company."

Tim George nodded. At a time when the Nasdaq crisis has no end in sight, and Internet companies are almost uninterested, ~www.novelbuddy.com~ invested 15 million US dollars, accounting for only 30% of the shares, and did not intervene in the management of the company. Compared with the current scale of LinkedIn, this condition is already very advantageous.

"What's the other party's name?" Tim George asked curiously.

"Phoenix Capital! A new VC!"

Guo Shouyun narrowed his eyes and said calmly.

"Dong dong...!"

He tapped the table with his right index finger, and after attracting the ideas of Martin and Tim George, "If you think this condition is okay, I will sign the contract on behalf of the company!"

"I'm OK!"

Martin Alexander said immediately.

"Martin, think carefully before answering. Once the contract is signed, your shares will be reduced to 14%!" Guo Shouyun said after glancing at him.

"It doesn't matter. Now it's 14%, but it's worth $7 million!" Martin rejoiced.

While the shares have decreased, the value of the shares has increased. Moreover, in just a few months, he went from almost nothing to a millionaire. This was enough for the ordinary Martin Alexander to be happy for a long time.

Glancing at Tim George with envy in his eyes, in order to appease the general, Guo Shouyun said again: "Tim, this time I talked to the investors of Phoenix Capital. Before the company goes public, it will According to the shareholding situation of each shareholder, take out 15% of the shares to set up an option pool. As a veteran of the company, you will enjoy the highest treatment!"

"Thank you Boss for your attention, I will work hard!"

Tim George's tone was full of excitement and immediately said.

There is nothing more inspiring than tangible benefits.
