"Mr. Schultz, it seems that you have put a lot of effort into me. Hu Mingchen shrugged.

"Child, you have a very philosophical old saying in China, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent will not be defeated in a hundred battles, although this sentence is about the military, but it is also the same in the commercial field. Of course, my example may not be appropriate here, and I don't mean to treat you as enemies. Not only are we not enemies, but in my opinion, we should be friends and partners. To tell you the truth, I didn't plan to come to China beforehand on this trip, but you attracted me and prompted me to come in person. Schultz put his hands on his chest and rubbed them against each other.

"I really couldn't imagine that it would be me who would attract you to China, I asked myself that I don't have such influence and attraction, Mr. Schultz, you won't be blind, right?" Hu Mingchen said as calmly as possible.

"Why would you want me to look away? If I look away, we won't work together. But I asked myself that I should be right, and I haven't lost that confidence yet. You shouldn't be 20 years old this year, right? Before you enter college, such a young man has already founded and run such a company, no matter in any country or region, it is very legendary, even far more than Bill Gates founded Microsoft. Schultz smiled slightly.

"Thank you for the compliment. Hu Mingchen bowed.

Schultz waved his hand and pointed at Hu Mingchen again: "When I was your age, I didn't understand bullshit, and I played around with my partners and friends all day long, I heard that you started business before you were ten years old, right?"

"What kind of business am I, it's just that my family is so poor that I can't open the pot, and I just find a way to solve the problems of life, which is not worth mentioning at all. After Hu Mingchen glanced at Nathan Luo, he smiled at Schultz with a self-deprecating wave of his hand.

Mr. Hu did not know where Mr. Schultz had heard what he had heard, but he believed that some of it had come from Nathan Law.

You must know that Chen Xuesheng has known Hu Mingchen a long time ago, and Chen Xuesheng was introduced to him by Wang Zhan. Relatively speaking, it is not unusual for Chen Xuesheng to know some anecdotes about Hu Mingchen's past, and it is reasonable to tell some executives from his mouth.

"Surprisingly, you went farther and wider, and after a few years, you entered the high-tech field, which I admire. Let me tell you this, I am not 100% confident in the IPENG product, after all, there are too many mature mobile phones on the market now. I am not completely sure about Pengbo Electronics, but I am optimistic about you, and it is because of this that I care about talking to you in private. Schultz said.

"It's as simple as that? You think so highly of me? Like you said, I haven't even gone to college yet. Hehe, I'm not so optimistic about myself, I really can't imagine that you are so confident in me from far away in the Pacific Ocean. Hu Mingchen was proud of Schultz's explanation, but he was also a little unconvinced.

"Hehe, do you really not have confidence in yourself? Although we have only been together for two days, I can't see even the slightest lack of confidence in you. On the contrary, you are a smart person and you are a very confident person, and I can feel that very clearly. Schultz said, pausing the following, he continued: "I have a concept, that is, talent is the most important, whether it is a company or a product, in the end, it is up to people to take care of it and people to do it, therefore, to choose a partner, the first thing is to choose people, then to look at the company, and finally to the product." As long as the right person is selected, then even if the current product is not good, a better product will be developed, and even if the current company is not so complete, it can be adjusted. So in general, I don't really look at the product at all, and I don't like the company so much, what I really value is the people behind the company. ”

Schultz's concept gave Hu Mingchen a deep impact, of course, his idea exists in all people to a greater or lesser extent, but very few people will take it as a criterion to implement, and few people will make choices according to this logic.

Schultz's ability to develop the company so big should be inseparable from his set of logic.

"Thank you, Mr. Schultz, for teaching me a lesson. Since you already think so, I am not humble to tell you that I do have a lot of confidence in the company and the product, provided that I believe that my judgment is correct. We will certainly encounter difficulties of one kind or another on the road of development, but we believe that these difficulties can be well overcome. ”

Once Hu Mingchen was no longer humble, Schultz could suddenly feel that Hu Mingchen's spirit had changed very much from a few minutes ago. Although he is young, he is full of confidence and vigorous spirit, which is really easy to infect people.

"Hahaha, I'll just say I'm right, okay, in that case, can we get back on track?" Schultz laughed heartily.

"Of course, then I won't shy away from saying that, Mr. Schultz, we won't sell the company, so the proposal to buy it is basically impossible. But to buy shares, my side is not completely refusal, of course, the price must be right, at least I think it is appropriate, otherwise, I will also refuse. Hu Mingchen was neither humble nor arrogant.

"The price is related to the current valuation of your company, I don't know what your valuation is of your company, and also, how much equity are you willing to sell at most?" Schultz asked softly.

"Valuation...... Mr. Schultz, since you have spoken of this word, I believe you asked the appraisal company to do the evaluation. However, no matter what your assessment is, it may be very different from my psychology. In my case, if there was no IPENG product, it would have been worth $100 million, but with this product, $10 billion is worth it. Hu Mingchen muttered.

As for how much equity he is willing to sell, Hu Mingchen chose not to mention it. If the other party does not even accept this valuation, then it will be meaningless to sell what percentage it is.

"Haha, 10 billion dollars, how dare you think about it. Why does the value of a product skyrocket a hundredfold? You must know that no matter how good a product is, if it is not introduced to the market and accepted by consumers, it is just imagination. Don't you think your valuation is too high, or maybe seven or eight hundred million dollars, or even a billion dollars, is a valuation that is a lot of premium?" Schultz laughed.

It's no wonder that Scholz is laughing, it's really an estimate of 10 billion dollars, and it's really skyrocketing. Even Nathan Luo, who was sitting on the side, was a little embarrassed, this was too daring to think and dare to say, if it were him, it would be estimated that 500 million US dollars would be about the same.

It's just that Hu Mingchen is the boss, even if Nathan Luo thinks he is too fantastical, it is impossible for him to put forward any suggestions for correction at this time.

"Mr. Schultz, you just said that you don't care about products and companies, why is it a little off the rails? Well, I'll just think it's an imagination, that's also my imagination, in my imagination, that's what it is. This is for you, and if it were for anyone else, maybe my valuation would be 100 billion dollars. My knowledge and judgment tell me that my valuation is not overvalued, but undervalued. Again, I have confidence in the company and the product, don't look at what I mentioned is a hundredfold increase, in fact, your investment, there is a tenfold chance of growth. Hu Mingchen said confidently.

Hu Mingchen did not have the slightest awareness of falsely reporting the price, as he said, in his heart, the price was not high but low.

From the bottom of his heart, he is not willing to sell the shares of Pengbo Electronics, just as he is unwilling to sell the shares of Aniu Company, which can create dozens of times or hundreds of times the income in the future.

"Aren't you willing to push back a bit? Aren't you worried about our company's withdrawal and non-cooperation? As far as I know, the door on AT&T's side is already closed. ”

"Mr. Schultz, it's good that I didn't add up. I believe that you are not the kind of person who takes advantage of the danger of others, but even if you are, it doesn't matter, to be exact, the door of AT&T is only temporarily closed, take 10,000 steps back, even if your company and AT&T are not willing to help, both resist, that's nothing, it's a big deal for us to find a few more companies to do together, such a big market in North America, so many companies in the same industry, at most the price we pay is a little bigger, and those costs, we believe, it won't be long before they earn back. At this stage, we are talking, in fact, it is the most beneficial for your company, otherwise, maybe a year later, the initiative of the negotiation will be in my hands, and at that time, it may become my choice of you. Hu Mingchen's words are not only confident, but also a little domineering.

Schultz stared at Hu Mingchen for more than ten seconds without speaking, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.

After more than ten seconds, Schultz breathed a sigh of relief: "OK, I believe your imagination, then ten billion dollars." ”

As soon as Schultz's words came out, Nathan Luo's heart was shocked. Damn, isn't it, just a few words, a small medium-sized company has skyrocketed a hundredfold to become a large company worth 10 billion dollars?

What kind of divine operation is this? I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out.

Comparing goods has to be thrown, people have to die compared to people, no wonder people are bosses, no matter what they do, they can only be a part-time worker, at most they are just senior workers.

Although I don't understand, but after all, this is a great news, if Pengbo Electronics is really worth 10 billion US dollars now, then the overall situation is different, and his own status is not the same.

When he first came to Pengbo Electronics, Luo Guancong still felt a little condescending, but now it seems that it is not a condescending choice, but a wise and correct choice.

Since Pengbo Electronics is worth 10 billion US dollars, if Schultz wants to invest, there will be no less money coming in.
