Chapter 101: Like Her
Before signing the contract, the call between Boss Ma and Rongcheng was like this: "There are customers coming to the door in a few days, can we sign the contract around the 14th?"
"Otherwise, you come over early, in front of the fourteenth, or it will only be after the seventeenth......" Zhao Qing responded, "Mr. Cheng, the period of their tenth middle school coincided with the final exam. β
Boss Ma smiled dumbly, "I almost forgot about this stubble." β
The high school students invested 30 million in them, and Boss Ma still feels a little unreal when he thinks about it now.
But Zhao Qing's words lingering in his ears from the microphone were true, "Or will we send the contract over, and you will send it back then?"
"There is still a sense of ceremony, and reaching an agreement in person can save a lot of steps...... Then I'll prepare in advance, come over on the 10th, go back on the 12th to deal with some things, and make an appointment with the customer on the 14th. Boss Ma paused and said with a shy smile, "Can the first money reached in the agreement be credited to the account at that time? β
Boss Ma is indeed very short of money, including last month's salary, he told the employees, "The salary will not be paid first, and it will be used as a share capital increase." "But now that Cheng Ran and they are coming in, this set is obviously not easy to handle.
"No problem. We can go to the bank on the same day to make a deposit. β
After a brisk conversation, Zhao Qing hung up the phone, thinking that if Boss Ma was not short of money to a certain extent, he would definitely not even lag behind in the reception of customers, and he would get the first fund before the end of Cheng Ran's period. To be honest, although Boss Ma is ugly, he still has a lot of ideas, but if he just relies on ideas and sketching the blueprint, Zhao Qing feels that if he has so much money, he still won't invest.
To a certain extent, Cheng Ran is his nobleman.
Boss Ma went to Rongcheng for the second time, signed the investment contract, and got the first payment of 5 million, and the subsequent money will enter their account within a month, and the two sides reached an investment contract without equity dilution.
The so-called no-equity dilution, also known as anti-equity dilution agreements, probably has no such precedent for technology investment in Asia during this period, and of course, there are few Asian technology companies that receive large sums of money in US dollars.
It's not that it's about guarding against Boss Ma, but adding a layer of insurance, and the investment of Tianxing Holdings will be carried out in this way of multiple insurance in the future.
In some start-ups, the initial agreement reached by the founding partners is actually relatively rough and full of bugs, and the initial company structure reached an agreement with enthusiasm, but there is no perfect institutional guarantee, so problems abound.
Just like one of the founders of Fcaebook was diluted and expelled from the market when he issued additional shares, there are many power wars in which the founders or partners of Fcaebook are either greedy or have different opinions and ideas in the process of company development and financing.
Cheng Ran and Boss Ma's share-free dilution clause is that when Boss Ma's company needs to increase its capital again, the valuation of the company before the new shareholder's capital increase should not be lower than the valuation after the completion of the previous investment, so as to ensure that the value of the company's equity held by Tianxing Holdings is not diluted. Secondly, if the valuation of the new shareholder's capital increase is lower than the investment valuation, then Tianxing Holdings' full ratchet clause has the right to adjust the equity ratio of the company in Ma Boss, so that its preferred shares can be issued accordingly according to the value of the newly increased ordinary shares.
Of course, Cheng Ran knew that if he continued to follow the trajectory of his previous life, Boss Ma's company would hardly be lower than its previous valuation after this round of investment, and the no-equity dilution clause was more like a gentleman's agreement.
On the day of the signing, there was a signing ceremony between Lianzhong Cheng Qi and Boss Ma, and a hotel conference hall was rented, with a red carpet on the ground, a variety of flower baskets around, and the propaganda board in the background was presentable, Cheng Qi also invited a local reporter from Rongcheng, and Tonglang.com also sent a reporter as a representative of the portal.
The reason why Goldman Sachs' initial investment in Boss Ma is enough to be replaced on Cheng Ran's side, it is so, in the name of Lianzhong to invest in Boss Ma, both will benefit, will jump into the field of vision of the industry and financial circles, now although the 519 market has passed, but this wave has only lasted for more than 30 trading days, the significance of the market is greater is to boost the domestic A-share market that has been sluggish for several yearsγ
Lianzhong, the current No. 1 game platform in China, and Boss Ma's e-commerce website for small and medium-sized enterprises can be said to have both appeared.
Whether it is Lianzhong, Boss Ma's e-commerce network, or his own 30 million, Cheng Ran feels that this is like a hunter with a gun throwing bait and feeding.
After the effect of this wave of media exposure, what we are waiting for is that investors who can provide higher valuations and more funds will enter the hunting area.
Cheng Ran, who holds the power behind the scenes of Lianzhong and the veto power of Boss Ma's key decisions, can find the fattest prey and pull the trigger.
β¦β¦
But Cheng Ran's silent investment of 30 million still shook CQ and Lianzhong, as the eldest brother, Cheng Qi didn't understand why Cheng Ran was worried about the millions of equity pledges some time ago, and in a blink of an eye, he not only repaid the money, but also invested 30 million after Boss Ma visited Lianzhong.
Of course, the more puzzled is that since Cheng Ran has 30 million, why not keep it to prepare for the development of Lianzhong and CQ, but to give Boss Ma an outsider?
This kind of doubt has always been with Cheng Qi, but after he came forward to go through the motions with Boss Ma and appeared in front of the reporters invited by the conference hall, through the expansion effect that the exposure began to gradually appear, he began to understand Cheng Ran's approach.
On the day of signing the agreement, Li Mingshi and Lin Xiaosong, who were present, watched the heated discussion of the reporters invited in the conference hall below, and the two and CQ's employees were also very emotional, Cheng Ran actually took 30 million at this age!
"I can't say whether this investment is bad or ......good," Lin Xiaosong sighed, "Although I agree with Boss Ma's concept, Hong Kong City is a springboard, which can be used as the entrance and exit of domestic small and medium-sized enterprises, and they do middleman business, and they will earn wealth once and for all, but 30 million, is it too much, right? It's me, I will invest up to 5 million!"
Li Mingshi said, "So you're not Mr. Cheng." β
Lin Xiaosong looked at Li Mingshi with a smile, "You are very blindly agreed, to put it bluntly, it is a personality cult." What's the matter, this isn't like the lone technical master Li Mingshi in college, where is your cool and handsome junior brother demeanor of countless elementary school girls?"
Li Mingshi said, "You know the system I developed to prevent meteorological and geological disasters, right?"
"Of course you know, this is your famous work, and the merit is immeasurable. Lin Xiaosong said, "At the class reunion I once attended, no matter what big boss or scholar is above the top, you have to give a thumbs up when you mention the contribution of your classmate back then." β
"This is what Mr. Cheng inspired me. Li Mingshi said, "I also went to the front line of Hongfeng to repair the system, you can't imagine the scene I saw, I saw that villages and towns were submerged, the plains became lakes, homes were destroyed, people were torn apart from life and death, but there were also many people who were saved because of this system...... I was standing on high ground that day, facing a raging storm and a flood below, but do you know how I felt at that time? I felt fearless, as if I had the strength to fight against nature. All these ideas came from him, so at that time I had an idea that someone could fight against nature through vision and strategic deployment, and Cheng Ran was like my backing and comrade-in-arms. β
"So I got on his boat, he was at the helm, and I did a good job of maintaining the ship, trying to turn the small boat into a big ship, and then trying to see if I could form a fleet that drifted all over the world. I'm not forcing you to think the same way I do, but ...... Wait and see. β
Lin Xiaosong nodded, "Then we'll see." β
Lin Xiaosong looked at the first row of the audience at that time, who was actually the promoter behind the scenes, but he was not under the flash at this time, and thought to himself, will the heroic talent deployed to fight against natural disasters reappear in the torrent of the Internet that is facing great changes in this era?
β¦β¦
June 14.
It's a Monday.
It's actually an ordinary day, with traffic on the road and the sun rising as usual, but for the students, it seems that the school year is coming to an end, and the excitement is full of disaster movie awareness because of the arrival of the final exam.
As for the college entrance examination, if it doesn't get to that job, it's just a concept that looks at all living beings every year but doesn't have a deep feeling. seems to know that they will usher in that day next year, but this so-called next year is actually more like a ship that can't see the horizon in everyone's impression, after all, even the time when it is half a year away to get the New Year's money seems so long and difficult.
The 10th mid-term final exam is on this Monday.
On the eve of the exam, Cheng Ran received a CQ message from Qin Xizhen, saying that she would come to Rongcheng to meet him after Cheng Ran finished the exam, which was regarded as thanking him in person. Cheng Ran smiled, and he could still think of the calm Qin Xizhen received at that time, thinking that he was frightened, and in the end he chose a solemn way to come over and thank him. Thinking of her babbling in the face of making money at first, this ladylike attitude is really not used to it.
But I didn't think about it so much, it seems that the friends of the mountains and seas will come to Rongcheng one after another in the coming year, and then in another year, they will go to the east and west.
After many years, they will see each other very happily, or old friends will be tired of seeing each other like old dogs.
Life should be hurried, don't stop.
In the morning, the Chinese language test is taken. Mathematics in the afternoon.
The language is already difficult to Cheng Ran, and the basic skills are good, the pull points are actually in the composition, there is no shortage of students who can quote the classics and write a colorful article in the ten, most of them are from primary school to high school perennial excellent grades into the top ten, all of them are masters, for the accumulation of composition and the usual use of excerpts from classic words and chapters are familiar with it, but the teacher is an adult, in fact, from an adult point of view, the student's article, even if the rhetoric is gorgeous, you can still see a lot of immaturity.
But Cheng Ran is different, he believes that he is not the same as most teachers now, so even if there are not so many classic sentences in what he writes, but with his information ability, this final argumentative essay is basically written from the perspective of an adult like a teacher, I believe that any teacher will not correct ten lines at a glance as usual, but will not let go of the paper.
There is no need to worry about mathematics, Cheng Ran usually changes his brain to do math problems.
The fifteenth is the morning English and the afternoon physics. English is not difficult for Cheng Ran, physics is also Cheng Ran's weakness of the test paper as Jiang Hongshao expected, the gold medal Zhao Zhonghua in the top ten handwriting, and the last year's national physics competition questions are similar to the idea, so that after coming down, everyone generally sighed about the difficulty, especially the penultimate two finale application questions, fortunately it is a step-by-step solution, a question is three solving, said to be two questions, in fact, six scoring points, most people can get one or two from it, as for the higher score points, it is the watershed that distinguishes the best students at the top of the pyramid. It belongs to the upper level of the dispute, and it is not for nothing that it can be done correctly, but the general place of this set of test papers is that there is no trick in solving the problem, and there are many places for a large number of calculations, if it is not a real strong hand, it is difficult to ensure the correctness of the two finale application questions within the specified time to complete the paper.
When I came down, the hallway was filled with countless students with the right answers.
Because of one person and one table, a class is basically scattered in two classrooms, Cheng Ran and Jiang Hongshao are not in the same classroom, and the two people with schoolbags on their backs after leaving the examination room just glance at each other tacitly.
Then Lao Jiang walked down the teaching building and left.
The sun is beautiful.
As she smiled.
