My Age of Investment

Five hundred and twenty-two, public opinion battle

the next day.

Several founders of Dianping.com held a press conference at the First Hotel in Shanghai. Zhang Fan, who flew in from the capital yesterday, was also present at the press conference.

In order to build up momentum, Shen and Zhang used a lot of connections and krypton gold, and invited many well-known media and newspaper reporters from all over the country to the scene.

At the press conference, Kong Wei and the others cried out in tears about the tragic experience of being "swept out" by themselves and others.

Different from Dianping’s script, Duoduo’s script of several founders is reversed.

Zhang Tao said that it was a few partners who wanted to tear up the investment intention agreement of Vision Capital.

Kong Wei and others said that it was Zhang Tao who accepted the unilateral benefits of Vision Capital and cooperated with Vision Capital to drive away their small shareholders and co-founders.

Kong Wei and others said that the signing process of the non-competition agreement was coerced, and Zhang Tao forced them to sign it, otherwise they would be forced to buy back the shares without any compensation.

In short, several people choked up with excitement at the scene, and said that they had suffered from public opinion and Internet violence.

They said that they would file a lawsuit against Dianping and Zhang Tao, asking the court to re-rule the previous non-compete agreement invalid.

Seeing that the matter was so confusing, the reporters insisted on their own opinions, and couldn't tell the truth from the fake for a while.

However, this fits their mentality again, watching the excitement is not a big deal.

It is precisely because the two sides have different calibers that the whole matter has become more topical and hot, and it is worthy of in-depth digging and reporting.

As a partner of Sequoia China, Zhang Fan also spoke at the press conference. First of all, he refuted every accusation and criticism of Envision Capital against Sequoia.

Then he turned around and turned himself into an envoy of justice, accusing Vision Capital of oppressing and persecuting several former Dianping co-founders.

Zhang Fan also pointed out on the spot that Envision Capital relied on its huge capital power to drive up the valuation of the venture capital circle and snatched away several projects from Sequoia and other peers.

The face has been torn apart, so both sides did not hold back, and all means of attacking each other were not spared.

The reporters who eat melons heard that so many big melons in the investment circle were exposed,

Many start-up companies and investment institutions have been involved, and I am very excited. I usually don’t hear so many secrets.

As soon as the press conference was over, the reporters who had paid enough for their travel expenses waved their pens and fired at Vision Capital and Xia Jingxing.

Of course, the truth of the incident has not yet come to light. Although the reporters have received a car fee, they dare not fully favor the Sequoia and Dianping.com side, lest they will not be questioned and the news will not achieve the desired effect.

Most of the reporters' reports questioned the truth of the incident, and suggested that the public hold off on expressing their opinions until the trial is held. They appear to be very objective and rational, but they are actually helping Sequoia to temporarily decompress.

"...every capillary of capital is filled with filth.

The right and wrong of Dianping and Duoduo are mixed with too much utilitarianism.

Infighting among executives, competition among capitals, and news hype is like watching a commercial war drama.

What the truth is, I thought about it for a while and it became clear.

But during this period of time, please stop for a while, business leaders, and stop occupying public resources. "

An in-depth report by the "Beijing News" was quickly reprinted by major media and became the headline on the front page.

This article is not biased towards any side, but from the point of view of questioning, questioning everything.

Questioning the authenticity of the Dianping incident, and questioning the news hype, is a bit of a style of "everyone is drunk and I am alone".

As soon as this article came out, it caused a lot of comments and discussions on the Internet.

Even the base of Xia Jingxing's loyal supporters - Tianya Forum, for example, the camp was divided into two factions.

"Xia Jingxing is no longer the cutting-edge entrepreneur Xia Jingxing in the past, but has become Mr. Xia and Daheng Xia. The dragon-slaying boy has grown scales after all. The capitalists are hyping and there is no bottom line."

"How can you be sure that people are just hype?"

"Don't think about it, it's just hype. Dianping has taken advantage of this exposure opportunity and has already opened to our small 18th-tier cities."

"Today you sue me, and tomorrow I sue you. Let's all play the netizen as monkeys. If you earn money, you will play monkeys."

"It is said on the Internet that Xia Jingxing is worth billions of dollars. Does this kind of small company and small money make him rare?"

"You don't understand this, the richer you are, the more stingy you are!"

"Speaking of being stingy, it seems that Xia Jingxing hasn't donated money to the country yet, right?"

"Donated 10 million yuan, which is equivalent to more than 1/3000 of the net worth."

"That's only a small donation? Mr. Huang Rulun of Jinyuan Group is far less valuable than Xia Jingxing. From 2003 to 2005, he donated a total of 286 million. The richer you are, the more expensive you are!"

"I heard that when Xia Jingxing was studying at Stanford University in the United States, he used 50,000 US dollars to buy the bottom of NetEase, and he made more than 50 times in one year!"

"What kind of family? You're studying in the United States, and you're investing in stocks with $50,000?"

"Ordinary family, father is a civil servant in Rongcheng, mother is a middle school director."

"Aren't your parents businessmen? Ordinary civil servant families have so much money?"

...

Sitting in the office of Jinmao Tower, Xia Jingxing looked coldly at these "rumors" on the Tianya Forum.

No need to think about it, someone was playing the rhythm and deliberately pointed the finger at him.

There are several main points of attack, one is the issue of charitable donations, the other is the source of parents' property, and the other is capital speculation and abuse of public resources.

Xia Jingxing raised his head, looked at Fu Jixun who was sitting opposite him, and said calmly, "What do you think?"

"Don't think about it, it must be Sequoia looking for someone to divert their attention, lest everyone focus on them."

Xia Jingxing frowned first, then slowly relaxed it.

In any case, Shen Beipeng and Zhang Fan are well-known figures in the country, they are not soft persimmons.

In the face of the public opinion attack launched by him, whether it is self-protection or counterattack, it is normal for something to happen.

When a predator pounces on its prey, wild animals will struggle a few times, let alone humans.

It is normal to have resistance, and it is strange not to resist.

"What does the Tianya Forum say?"

Fu Jixun replied: "In the middle of last year, IDG and Zero2IPO jointly invested millions of dollars in Tianya.

Through the recommendation of Li Zhengdong, I got in touch with Xing Min, the founder of Tianya, but he..."

Fu Jixun sighed, "He expressed his embarrassment, and hastily deleting the post will affect users' perception of their Tianya, so he declined our request to delete the post!

Of course, he was also afraid of offending us, so he told me cryptically that Sequoia was introduced by IDG and seemed interested in investing in them. "

Xia Jingxing understood, for most people, it is not difficult to choose between being an unattainable rich man and the easy-to-get investment. Which one is more important?

"Where are Sina, Sohu, and Netease?"

Fu Jixun replied, "These companies are very face-saving, saying that they will never publish any negative news about you.

Of course, one or two articles with a questioning tone, they will certainly not prevent publication.

It should be Shen Beipeng who tried his best. He and Charles, Cao Guowei, and Ding Sanpang are also old friends, and they have a good friendship. "

Xia Jingxing nodded, "Okay, I see, what does the Shanghai court say? Can the court start as soon as possible?

The evidence in our hands is very complete, as long as the trial is held, the chances of winning are very high.

As long as the ruling comes down as soon as possible, many rumors will be self-defeating. "

Fu Jixun said seriously, "I know that, in the face of the facts, many rumors can't make waves.

However, the efficiency of the Modu Court is really not high, and no notice has been issued yet. "

Xia Jingxing frowned, and said hesitantly: "You said... Could it be the people from Sequoia who are behind the scenes? After all, Ctrip's headquarters is in Shanghai, where taxes and employment are all settled there."

Fu Jixun nodded his head lightly, that's why he had doubts.

"Oh shit!"

Xia Jingxing scolded, he is now a paper tiger, he looks quite bluffing, but he has no industry that is deeply tied to the local area, and the big business that pays profits and taxes and solves employment is a company that is liked by every locality. You have to be coaxed.
