Jiang Chao returned to school with a very depressed mood.

Jiang Chao rarely has this kind of emotion, and it is rare to be depressed, but he plans to experience it well. After all, people can't always be very happy, and occasionally they still have to change their mood.

But this hard-won depression was lost by a phone call from Judy before Jiang Chao could taste it.

"Jiang Chao! Come back quickly, there is a great event!"

......

Jiang Chao and Judy receive this guest at the Dream House.

"I'm going straight to the point, our company is very interested in your project, and I think you are also looking for suitable investors now. You should also know the strength of our group. ”

The person who spoke was a very short man, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, and he looked like an elite returnee. His name is Shi Li, and he is an investment manager at the investment company of Niu Xun Holdings.

Judy poured a cup of tea, Jiang Chao took it and put it in front of Shi Li: "Talk slowly!"

Shi Li glanced at the water in the paper cup, which was a snowflake tea under 100 yuan, and quietly pushed the tea aside. "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for your company, and I hope you must seize it!"

Jiang Chao carefully observed Shi Li's words and deeds. Although everything is very decent, it always gives people a feeling of discomfort. Jiang Chao has just been in contact with Liu Yudong, and if you look at this Shi Li, there is really a big gap between the different levels.

Jiang Chao also poured himself a cup of tea, sat opposite Shi Li, and said with a smile: "No hurry." It's rare to meet such an outstanding investment expert as Manager Shi, I have a few questions for you!"

Shi Li's expression didn't fluctuate: "I don't know what Mr. Jiang wants to know?"

Shi Li's every move, Jiang Chao had a panoramic view. Jiang Chao took a slow sip of tea, "I want to ask Manager Shi about his experience in investment." ”

Shi Li looked at his watch without moving, and then said, "Investment?"

While asking, Shi Li leaned back on the sofa with his feet crossed, subconsciously picked up the cup, and was about to take a sip, when he saw the tea that was very poor for him, he paused and put down the cup.

Jiang Chao smiled and asked, "What does Manager Shi mainly look for in investment?"

Shi Li smiled slightly: "To be honest, I don't usually share these experiences with others, but since Brother Jiang asked, I'll talk about it." When I invest, I mainly look at three things, people, people, and people. ”

Jiang Chao's heart moved slightly, revealing a very interested expression: "What does this mean?"

Shi Li smiled, "Investing in a start-up like yours is, to put it bluntly, looking at the team. ”

"Team, what does Manager Shi think of our team?"

There was an unnatural expression on Shi Li's face, although it was fleeting. But he was still captured by Jiang Chao.

Shi Li said: "Let's be honest, this time it is an exception for you. For me, a high-quality team, including the technical director, CFO, and CEO, should have at least 5 years of experience in the industry, and make certain achievements in similar positions. ”

Jiang Chao's expression did not change in the slightest: "So what does Manager Shi like about our project?"

Jiang Chao never got to the point, Shi Li showed a trace of impatience imperceptibly, and said indifferently: "To be honest, although your management is far behind, the project is still very promising." Let's be honest, when we take a stake, we will send professionals to help you operate. ”

Judy, who had not spoken on the side, frowned slightly.

Jiang Chao smiled indifferently: "What Manager Shi said, you are not talking about cooperation, and you are co-opting." ”

"It's okay if you understand that. Shi Li paused: "Your team, with all due respect, is still immature, compared to the experienced team we stationed, there is a big gap, if you really want to spread your wings and fly high, using our wings is the best choice." ”

Jiang Chao paused slightly, "Then how much price is Manager Shi going to offer?"

Shi Li finally heard what he wanted to hear and smiled: "We plan to inject 20 million." Your next step should be to consider replicating this model in other universities, right? 20 million should be completely able to eat, if the later benefits are good, we will continue to improve. ”

Jiang Chao took another sip of tea, "So how many shares do you want?"

"50%!" said Shi Li categorically.

Judy was a little angry when she heard this, but she looked at Jiang Chao and didn't speak.

Jiang Chao said with a smile: "Such a high share, then as soon as the shares of our founders are diluted, your company will become a major shareholder." ”

Shi Li frowned: "Of course, we have already given you a very high valuation, do you think this price is low?"

Jiang Chao shook his head: "It's low." And this company has put our hearts and minds together, and it is impossible for me to give up control. ”

Jiang Chao's reaction surprised Shi Li a little, he thought about it, and planned to change his strategy: "It's very high! With our investment, your valuation can be doubled again in the next round of financing, and it will not be difficult to realize financial freedom when the time comes." And Brother Jiang, to be honest, although your project has potential, it may not be our best choice. In a month or two, we will be able to incubate an identical company, can you believe it?"

Jiang Chao smiled slightly, doesn't the soft come to the hard? He said indifferently: "For science and technology companies, you should also know how precious a month or two of time is. And let's be honest, your company isn't necessarily our only option. ”

Shi Li was slightly startled, no wonder Jiang Chao was so confident, it seemed that someone had already quoted him a price, and he suddenly hesitated. He has not done in-depth research on summer technology, and he knows very little. He didn't know how much the other party quoted, so he fell into passivity. smiled: "Then how about you make an offer?"

When Jiang Chao saw Shi Li, he secretly laughed in his heart, did he make the other party unable to hold his breath with a casual lie?

"The price can be negotiated, but our bottom line is the position of the majority shareholder, and it cannot be sold. Jiang Chao said calmly.

Shi Li frowned: "This is impossible! If this is the case, then there is no need for us to continue talking!"

Jiang Chao smiled slightly: "Manager Shi, don't be in a hurry to refuse! In this way, such a big decision, I can't say it alone, we still need to have a meeting to discuss it." Can I give you an answer later?"

Shi Li nodded: "This is also how it should be." However, Mr. Jiang has to think clearly! We can negotiate the price, but 50% equity is our bottom line!"

This is the end of the conversation. Jiang Chao said a few words of inconsequential greeting to Shi Li, and Shi Li was really a little impatient, so he casually found a reason to say goodbye and leave.

After Shi Li left, Judy couldn't help but say, "They're too much!"

Jiang Chao smiled slightly, "Actually, this Shi Li has given me a wake-up call." ”

Judy was stunned: "What are you awake?"

Jiang Chao slowly put away his smile, "I thought we should go to find investment, but in fact, it was in the wrong direction. Liu Yudong's words also told me that we underestimated the attractiveness of this project to venture capital. And at present, we are the only one in the market to share bicycles, and we are the ones who should really be sold at a price. ”

"We need to invest, why aren't investors looking for good projects to make money?" Jiang Chao looked at Judy: "Call everyone here, let's have a meeting." ”
