Chapter 734: Fang Shiling's Predicament (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Recently, Fang Shiling has been glancing at WeChat every day and almost exploded, who will take over? She roared and asked, Ran goose, I don't know, I have to wait for the leader's arrangement. Leaders need to have a meeting to discuss and discuss, but the main leaders are not complete, and they have to wait for some people to come back from a business trip.
Meow meow?
Fang Shiling finally thought about it this morning, the question of time is no longer the most head-scratching, the most balding thing is that the contract she got back, the legal counsel of "Late Night Gallery" still did not agree to sign it.
You must know that startups are usually not one-person companies, even if the shareholding structure of "Midnight Gallery" is relatively simple, there are investors. If the legal counsel refuses to sign, the process will not go on, and it is okay for her, the president, to forcibly sign, but in case of an accident in the future, she needs to bear different responsibilities.
Of course, there is no point in saying this now, she is ready to sign it first, although the legal counsel has repeatedly warned her about the potential risks in this contract.
For example, once the contract is signed and the company's money is transferred to the condominium account, Taishantai can find an outsourcing company according to the contract, and then subcontract and subcontract layer by layer, peeling it clean like peeling an onion, regardless of how much it costs, and peel it off in an instant. In particular, it is very clear in the contract that this money is the production cost, not the actor fee of the code cast, so it can be outsourced by the project controller.
The future is bleak......
But it's not this risk that is stuck in Shiling, after all, it's just a potential risk, and she has to have money before she can be qualified to take this risk.
Now the problem is that there is no money! Where can I find money if I don't sign a contract? Do I use my face to brush money? This logic is not a KPI for in-house counsel, so in-house counsel doesn't consider it. As a legal officer, you don't need to have this kind of strategic vision, but this is the most realistic problem for Fang Shiling.
Therefore, when she saw Chu Yuanxi, her blood vessels were about to burst!
Walking with her is Liu Jinfang, the president of Daxia Investment. Ms. Liu Jinfang didn't have any expression, Fang Shiling buzzed in her ears for a long time, but she didn't know how much she listened.
If you want to find money, Daxia investment is a rock that is impossible to bypass, because Daxia has already invested in her a lot, although the previous investment agreements are very, very loose, to the extent that the father trusts his son, but the priority must always appear in the clause.
Therefore, Fang Shiling now wants to raise money in two ways, first, she doesn't even touch "Late Night Gallery" at all, she directly starts training in vitro, uses a shell company with clean qualifications to sign a contract with Taishantai, and then carries out financing, which is equivalent to starting a second business. In this way, Daxia Investment can only watch and have no right to speak.
The second is to use "Late Night Gallery" as the main body for financing, and the contract with Taishan Terrace has to carry historical baggage. This will have to make Da Xia invest more, or give up the priority and let her go.
The first plan looks very good, but who to look for? Looking for Daxia Rong again? Isn't that looking for scolding? The same is true for other people who have voted for "Gallery". And the so-called "others" were all found by Du Shuang at the beginning......
If you don't find this group of people, it's not impossible, the problem is that you can't hunt in the zoo, so you can go outside the zoo to hunt? 0 million is not a small amount, take an empty shell to raise money? How to open this mouth with people? How to calculate the valuation? Even if you put together all the classmates you know from elementary school to college, it is estimated that it will be no fun, Fang Shiling quickly extinguished this idea.
That's why the blood vessels will collapse after seeing Chu Yuanxi. Anyway, there was a group of real investors present at the roadshow that day, why didn't they take advantage of the opportunity to establish a little relationship? What an unforgivable mistake!
The key is, why was Chu Yuanxi able to find so many bigwigs to cheer him on? This is not scientific! If he had this kind of lineup, he would have taken off directly!
The second plan is straightforward, use "Midnight Gallery" as the main body to sign a contract with Taishantai, and when financing, either let Daxia invest again, or let Daxia avoid it. The problem is that Du Shuang, who should have suffered a thousand cuts, actually resigned? Isn't it good for you to leave again when I get it done? How can you leave at this critical time?
If Daxia is willing to make money, things will become very simple, but if you don't pay for it, there will be huge problems, because if you don't pay for it, you don't necessarily have to avoid it. Any start-up agreement will contain ratchet-like rights, which means that the valuation cannot be downgraded, and the investor's share must be protected.
Therefore, Daxia's avoidance must be based on the premise that the valuation has not decreased, but is it possible that the valuation will not fall?
Of course there is, but the timing is not right!
"Late Night Gallery" has just raised 10 million, with a valuation of 100 million, and a valuation of 1.1 billion after financing, and then burned on the Internet celebrity e-commerce to bring goods! If Fang Shiling is given a period of time to return to blood, this is not a too serious problem, it is nothing more than a question of more advertising or less advertising, don't care about them for user experience or anything, in short, beautify the financial statements to an acceptable level first.
But the problem now is that there is no respite, Chu Yuanxi is engaged in variety shows, this is an emergency, I knew it on the first day, and I went to tear it up the next day, and it has only been half a month now, how can I breathe? I haven't even found an oxygen cylinder!
That's why she's going to be at this exhibition. Fang Shiling is busy with official business now, and she was supposed to fly to Mount Tai on the weekend, but because Liu Jinfang came to attend the meeting, she had to come! She made an appointment to meet Liu Jinfang several times, and no one was available, but if she was free to participate in this kind of exhibition, where could she be reasonable?
As a result, Liu Jinfang has an attitude - noncommittal, and wait until you really raise money. Anyway, if Fang Shiling really raised to 30 million at a valuation higher than 1.1 billion, and it was okay for someone to make money, according to the agreement, she could also ask people if they were willing to take over the share of Daxia. If not, then you really have to say it.
In fact, Liu Jinfang was angry when she saw Fang Shiling, because the agreement signed by Du Shuang did not include the right to liquidate and withdraw, let alone the "right to sell" that is like the sword of Damocles for entrepreneurs. As a result, when the valuation rises, Daxia can neither ask new investors to take over their shares at the latest valuation, and then increase the capital and shares of "Midnight Gallery", nor can it find a big buyer to realize it at one time.
This is undoubtedly extremely passive, and it is also the reason why she launched a series of attacks on Du Shuang. When the valuation was in an upward channel, no one mentioned it, because some people were willing to take over. But when the valuation flattened, it was awkward to death, and someone had to be found to take over voluntarily before Daxia could exit.
At this moment, Liu Jinfang saw Chu Yuanxi.
