What does a private researcher do?
1) research industry trends: VC does a lot of information reading and analysis every day to explore potential directions before looking for projects. The so-called O2O, big data and other modes are not decided by the head. After determining the direction or business model, transaction procurement will be more accurate and effective. That's why many Internet analysts publish a lot of content on Weibo, because it's also an important channel for them to keep industry sensitivity and learn about new progress. The only difference is that the layman is watching the excitement (all kinds of scuffle gossip in group buying), and the expert should analyze the doorway from the inside. In addition, Internet analysts will also pay attention to foreign venture capital trends and attack jade with stones. I will also attend various meetings and communicate with people in the industry very frequently to get information. This aspect is something that an analyst has to invest a lot of time and energy every day.

2) 2) What VC analysts do most is to find high-quality projects, which is the so-called transaction procurement. The deal may come from a good company that you take the initiative to find (it depends on the conclusion of the survey), entrepreneurs take the initiative to contact, friends recommend, angels or other VCS recommend, industry conferences and so on. Entrepreneurs are often worried that they can't find investors. VC is actually anxious to find suitable projects every day. "Appropriate" may be that the market is promising, the business model has potential, the team is strong enough, the products are reliable enough, and the company's development stage should be just right (different institutions have different investment preferences, too early or too late, and the transaction scale is too large or too small). Carefully screen according to various standards. In fact, there are few suitable transactions. Entrepreneurs are also advised to make products, grasp the market and find the right direction. As long as it is reliable, many venture capitalists will contact you actively.

3) Communicate and negotiate with investors: There is nothing to say about this, mainly to communicate in depth, understand the company's current situation, plan the future together, sort out products and find directions. Meetings will be arranged at least several times a week, and repeated meetings will be held if there are suitable investment targets. Of course, we will also discuss the investment amount, shares and other details. Good projects will be judged by partners, and then good projects will be finally decided by the investment Committee.

4) Complete the investment: Of course, due diligence should be done, but it is relatively infrequent, because there are really not many VC investment transactions in the past two years, and not many of them can reach the DD stage. Professionals are responsible for the financial and legal aspects of investment. After the investment, VC analysts will often keep in touch with portfolio to understand the situation and help the company develop as soon as possible.
