Chapter 315: All generals can surrender to Cao
Iprahim quickly thought: If Gu Kun and Lan Fang's tourism and luxury shopping industries can be completely destroyed, his entire career can still be saved!
Of course, according to the progress of the project, as long as the foundation is laid for more than half a year, there is definitely no possibility of modifying the underlying design, or the modification will lead to a complete overthrow and a loss of all the costs that have been invested in the early construction.
Anyway, Gu Kun had disgusted him for so long, he could indeed consider fighting to the death.
The success of his business no longer depends on himself, but on the fact that he must make Gu Kun worse than him. The luxury industry and the luxury industry do not need any absolute value, only relative value, and what is needed is this world ranking.
As long as the world's No. 2 is dead, even if the quality of the world's No. 1 service declines a lot, as long as it is still the world's No. 1, there will be no problem. There are so many vain people who will pay for the false name of the world's number one.
So, a hint of fierceness flashed in Yiprasin's eyes, and he asked cautiously: "You can make the Lanfang tour project into the kind of slut tour with super cheap group fare?
Yang someone: "I need at least 20 million US dollars to go to Lanfang to lay out some shopping malls, specialty stores, and other low-cost group arbitrage returns, and special users for tourists who go to Lanfang to lock the door for shopping." ”
Iprasin: "Won't this violate the relevant economic management regulations of the Lan side?"
Yang: "It's good that it doesn't violate Huaxia's contract law - our contracts with Chinese tourists are signed in China." If they really want to make trouble in a foreign country, we can put up with it first, and then wait for them to get out of the Lan side, and then investigate their responsibility for breach of contract. If you don't lose money, you will withhold your passport and prevent them from entering the country. ”
There is still a period of time in this world that has passed out of one country's pass and has not yet entered another country's pass. There is nothing to elaborate on, anyway, all kinds of irregular groups with zero low group fees in later generations have already evaded supervision in all kinds of ways, and a little trickery is enough for these despicable people to manipulate.
Many of these tricks have entered the garbage heap of history after tens of years and twenty years, and have become illegal means that have been completely abandoned, and normal tourists can't encounter these pits, so there is no need to say more - to improve readers' knowledge of this kind of thing, but also to pay attention to effectiveness, human beings are destined to never use the knowledge again in a lifetime, what is there to popularize.
Ibrahim nodded, thinking that there was something wrong with this.
"Yes, I'm willing to invest 20 million US dollars in you - I don't expect you to become big, 20 million I will invest in a failed project, but there is no room for ambiguity about messing up Gu Kun's forced qualifications! ”
Yang just listened, and he wouldn't take to heart such nonsense and scary words as not dying well.
"Anyway, if Lao Tzu really fails, he will never come to the Middle East again in this life, you really want to bite me, do you have a chance?" He didn't care in his heart, anyway, the most important thing is to get the investment first.
Without an immersive watchman, you may not be able to empathize with the urgency of his decision-making — but that's only because most people don't understand how cold the Internet winter was in early 2002.
At that time, many Internet companies hung up without getting through it in one go, and even Huang Yi, the successful NASDAQ IPO, originally fell to more than five or six dollars per share.
As for other non-listed companies, if they didn't get enough amount of venture capital at the high level of 99, most of the others also died.
In other words, don't look at the scenery of BAT in later generations, but if Xiao Ma took Li Ergongzi's investment a year earlier or a year later, or if Lao Ma took Sun Zhengyi's money a year earlier or a year later, the company that took Lao Ma and Xiao Ma would also have a high probability of dying.
Of course, the market demand is still there, even if their company dies, there will still be people in the Chinese world who do social software, some people who do e-commerce, and one who dies is nothing more than the second place to fill in, or there are other companies that change lanes across the circle to overtake, and the pit of the ecological niche of the card owner. It's just that the successful ones are not necessarily the ones they are today.
If someone looks at it from the perspective of the reborn, of course, they will feel that "although the travel network was a little miserable in the cold winter, it seems that in the end it did not do such a risky thing, and it survived the cold winter with a breath."
But after all, this is a conclusion from God's perspective. Yang and Boss Shen, these guys in the bureau, they don't have God's perspective.
They also don't know how long the winter will last. Now that there is a better opportunity there, it is not surprising that Yang tends to choose to take a gamble if he offends foreigners.
Anyway, he felt that if he didn't bet on his company, there was a high probability that it would be over.
Since it is to escape for his life, no matter how harsh and perverted the conditions are, it is possible to talk about them.
Based on this tone, the two sides conspired with some details, and finally finalized the cooperation framework.
......
Seven thousand kilometers away, Gu Kun didn't realize the small movements of those bed bugs at all.
After all, after Yang took the investment in iprazine, it will take time to lay out - it always takes time to open those black specialty stores in Lanfang that are specially used for tour group shopping, right? Even if the house is ready-made, it has to be renovated a little.
The specific operation is actually similar to the number of Chinese people going to open those French luxury stores near the Lefayette shopping center in Paris a few years later.
Since about 05/06 years later, there have been Chinese people in tourist cities such as Paris and Milan who have opened stores for Chinese tourists. Whether it is a donkey seller or a Gucci one, Chinese tourists think they are shopping in a shop opened by a Frenchman, but in fact, the bosses behind the scenes are all Chinese, but the Chinese bosses dare not show their faces, for fear that if they show their faces, tourists will be wary and feel deceived by their compatriots.
Who made the Chinese have a high IQ and a field of intrigue and intrigue that is far ahead of other nations in the world for thousands of years?
Chinese tourists always have a sense of intellectual superiority when they go out and meet white and black people, and they are very relaxed, feeling that they will never be deceived by those ethnic groups that have not yet been fully civilized in the field of stratagem. Only when you meet your own compatriots, you will know too much about the other party's ability to deceive people, and the pores all over your body will stand up and enter a state of full alert, so how can the store make money?
Therefore, the venture capital that Yang took in February, all the preparations were done, the actual investment was in large-scale group recruitment, and the whole process was running, catching up with the first tourist season, how could it be the schedule of the May Day Golden Week. At most, try the water and run in during the spring off-season in April.
......
About half a month later, at the end of February and the beginning of March, another partner in the process, Boss Shen, finally realized the problem.
His first reaction was to be shocked when he saw the large amount of investment in the company's account, and then he checked the flow of money, as well as all the strategic cooperation contracts and investment agreements kept by the secretary of the board of directors, and was so shocked that he was speechless.
On the other hand, it is also because the general environment is too short of money, so any partner has obtained full authorization to pull money in advance, and many things can be cut first without consulting partners - this kind of thing is unimaginable if it is bigger, but in the cold winter, the company has only been established for two years, so it is indeed very common to be non-standardized.
On the other hand, it is also to blame that Iprahim is too bold, when he has not completed many follow-up due diligence and detailed negotiations with Triptrip.com, he has already called over the first few million of the $20 million investment with only a framework agreement initialled with Yang.
This kind of thing is common on projects that are on schedule. For example, when the dot-com bubble was at its worst, a South Korean fund directly gave PayPal $5 million without any negotiation or meeting, just by virtue of an article in the Wall Street Journal about PayPal company, and just wrote a sentence "The Wall Street Journal said that your company is valued at $500 million, here is 5 million, and we want 1% of your company's equity."
It's just that after entering the cold winter period, it is rare for a gold owner who is willing to give money so quickly, and this time the gold owner is too anxious, and he is in a hurry to see the effect as soon as possible, so the small money of several million dollars in the early stage can't wait to go through the process, and the payment is made directly.
Therefore, it caused Boss Shen to react slowly, not to mention that in fact, it was not much slower, but it was discovered when the money he got in the middle of the month and the finances at the end of the month.
Shen Beipeng immediately brought someone Yang for this matter.
"Xiao Yang, how dare you take such money? Gu Kun will not allow you to open a black shop in Lanfang to dominate the customers of the cheap group, so you are not afraid of making a big fuss and ruining the company's reputation? Moreover, you dare not discuss such a thing as introducing new investors? This is still not the company that the two of us jointly founded? You are going to bring the company into the pit!" Shen Beipeng said a little heavily.
"Survival is more important than word of mouth! Gu Kun looks down on us, so we will bypass him and do it ourselves, who is in the way? Besides, there is no room for maneuver in this matter, I have indeed 'fully' used the company's authorization, and if the contract is broken, the company can hold me accountable. But the company can't prove that you don't know and that the company is innocent, so as long as you refuse to cooperate, the company will die the same and lose money to the Diba people. Yang retorted in a loud voice, he obviously had a heart.
"You ......" Shen Beipeng was speechless for a while.
The investigation of the company's articles of association is internal, and the investigation of the company's internal discipline is also only internal. The liability borne externally, the company is negligent, and the authorization is overrun, and it must also be borne obediently. Now this financial situation is obviously unable to withstand any storms.
Shen Beipeng was extended an olive branch by Gu Kun, so he knew Gu Kun's true energy better, and he also had a way out, knowing that Gu Kun would also talk about his alumni friendship.
Therefore, he really didn't want to offend Gu Kun.
