Ningquan: We didn't call it a business.

In the face of the "new opportunity for Cross-border investment in the Internet", Ningquan waved his sleeve and chose to share his entrepreneurial experience. My selfish guess, from ignorant students to today's Internet rookie starvc, his growth history and most of the Internet undertaking the same-inspirational, enough cock silk.

We did not call entrepreneurship, called Small Business, not called Angel, called Borrow money ...

Internet industry has too many terms, with the "Huan biography" Chinese concubine and Empress's lines to describe: Many people angry! What single point breakthrough, platform, just need, angel ... In fact, in 1998, where so much attention, entrepreneurship is just doing "small business."

I found that after graduating from college I did not act first, the first job is to open a small restaurant, and at that time is to borrow money, everywhere lobbying people to join, this is exactly the same as the mentality of our entrepreneurs today, and originally said to borrow money, now that is not angel money?

And now slightly calm entrepreneurial mentality is different, Ningquan opened the restaurant is facing greater pressure. He was well aware that the act was a particularly unstable character, relatively passive. "I think it's a sad thing for a man to be in control when you're most energetic and want to develop a career," he said. But what can I do? College is a film and television show, there is no other professional knowledge.

In contrast, today entrepreneurs seem to be more comfortable, entrepreneurship is to solve the problem, is to meet the needs of the public, is at the level of subsistence calm down and slowly thinking about how to "change the world." And the growing number of entrepreneurs to serve the community also accelerated the pace of entrepreneurship, there is a cloud computing platform, IM interface, even to serve the Power seller's team, also to the "ecosystem" level.

Nevertheless, the pioneering service is not enough, if you are not in the first month to find a strong profit model (successful people can find me private chat), is not the tyrants of resources, in front of the funds, always inevitably distressed Lu Ying. Ningquan was planning to open a restaurant, about 100,000 pieces, to go out to persuade people around, can imagine the dialogue mode may be like this:

Are you there?

In

Well, I'd like to open a restaurant with a good prospect ...

Sorry, you are not his micro-trust friend, please submit your application.

In this way, their own 20,000, to find a friend borrowed 30,000, another out of 40,000, Ningquan for their own restaurant to find angel investors, but at the time of the "angel", just want to borrow money, do not want to buy a stake:

One of the students borrowed me 40,000 bucks, I told him, in fact, I do not want to borrow this money, you simply you share it, I out of 30,000 you out of 40,000, you are a major shareholder, you do not have anything, I give you a job, I also invest in the future to make money are yours. He said he didn't agree and couldn't see the project. Later this person regrets, he borrowed me 40,000 yuan, 15 years after the whole camp and brand value, should be hundreds of times times the return, the classmate later very regret, he will listen to me. He said that as long as you vote for anything, I will follow, this person is Li Bingbing classmate. (later this commitment was broken, because in the investment huayi, ice ice too much for the spring elder brother cast ...) ）

Compared to today's venture environment, humorous point, the investment institutions too much, entrepreneurs are not enough, everywhere health money, only regrets Ningquan students did not meet the good times. But he was lucky, too. As the beginning said, such experience is cock silk, but inspirational, also let him have the confidence to continue to venture, plus the late restaurant to do Internet promotion experience and investment return of sweetness, gave birth to his starvc into the internet to create a circle of ideas.

Set, break, set, shuffle, redo

STARVC's story and settings we introduced, but STARVC on the line after the operation of details and problems encountered before not a deep chat. At first the STARVC was set to accept the application-audit-to determine whether the project was invested. But at the beginning of the 4-hour 700-letter plan, they were stunned:

So far, we've been around 3 months, and we've received more than 3,000 plans, and I've been blindfolded. We look at the project of the several colleagues, has been forced to work overtime, I later said that my eyes can not open the spring brother. The original plan to cast 3 to 5 and 200 a year was completely disrupted ...

So many applications, one to reply to the interview for Ningquan small team, is not realistic. But small teams also have small and beautiful benefits-flexibility and versatility. With more and more excellent entrepreneurs applying, the concept of "professional cooperation" is becoming clearer in STARVC's eyes:

Our ideas are constantly improving, and in the future we may be able to work with more excellent institutions that will help us share and control these excellent projects, and then our STARVC from 3 to 5 originally set, and may be said to be no more than 10 projects a year. Ultimately we want to make it into a brand, not to invest it in return.

When it comes to brand building, STARVC invests two projects: Second beat and Han all have achieved a decent performance. Han's clothing house has gained more than 10 times times the user's growth. Ningquan that the creation of brand value is the direction that STARVC want to work hard.

Finally, he once again stressed that STARVC is a newcomer, is modest, is believed that the cooperation wins, the resources share!

Yes, I'll give you some material:

--about how xiaoming the stakes.

And Ice Ice confirmed the partnership, I said I have to find a person, this person must have the idea of investment, to have influence, and most importantly, he has to have money!

Ice ice immediately blurted out: Xiaoming, because Xiaoming money (Xiao Ming you hear it).

The two of us basically identified Xiao Ming at the same time and called him to say whether you want to listen to this project. Xiao Ming is a boss will not let go of any business opportunities, very clever, he said he was eating, let me immediately open a room next door he came. So we three people opened the first hot one shareholder meeting, I used 10 minutes to elaborate my idea of the hot one, the whole will not exceed half an hour ...

Xiaoming after listening to a sentence did not say, 15 minutes later asked when to need to play money ...

(I don't care about strategy, I'm rich and powerful)

--Spring elder brother, 36 Krypton go hot one number dozen fold?!

You have to let me buy a stake before you can enjoy the shareholder discount!

(not with such a wolf sex!) ）

At the end of the day, all the participants were promised: the hot one has a discount!
