Chapter 530: Financing Plan!
"This ......"
"On the issue of cost......
Carl changed his appearance from the tirade just now, and his speech became slurred, with a touch of embarrassment on his face.
"As for the cost problem, we haven't come up with a solution yet, but we've been working tirelessly!" Karl quickly added.
Su Yiyang smiled, and said in a slightly teasing tone: "You put aside the most critical cost issue, but focused on the minutiae aspects, we have an old saying in China called losing watermelons and picking up sesame seeds, I think this sentence is quite suitable for you." ”
When Carl heard this, the embarrassment on his face became even stronger, but what Su Yiyang said made him unable to refute, even he had to admit that if he wanted to open up the road of nickel-metal hydride batteries, the cost of nickel-metal hydride batteries was indeed an unavoidable threshold.
"Let's talk about it, in addition to the research results of nickel-metal hydride batteries, do you have any other research results? What research do you have on the rest of the batteries for pure electric vehicles?" Su Yiyang changed the topic and asked Carl.
"The rest of the research ......" Carl scratched his head and said with some embarrassment: "In fact, in addition to the research of nickel-metal hydride batteries, we designed a new battery in our spare time, we call it a lithium-ion battery, but we have limited funds, and we have not carried out relevant experiments on lithium-ion batteries." ”
Lithium-ion batteries!
When Carl said these five words, he didn't notice that Su Yiyang, who was standing in front of him, had a glint in his eyes.
Su Yiyang's breathing was slightly shorter, and he shouted in his heart that it was dangerous, if it weren't for the lack of research funds of Carl's company, then I am afraid that something might have been researched by them, and at that time, if Su Yiyang wanted to reach out and eat this cake, the difficulty would probably be dozens of times higher.
"Oh, lithium-ion batteries, it's a very novel idea, can you talk more about it?" Su Yiyang suppressed the excitement in his heart and pretended to ask casually.
Carl smiled a little shyly, and briefly described the idea of lithium-ion batteries they proposed to Su Yiyang, and he felt a little embarrassed when he said it, after all, his Carl company did not even have its own automobile factory, and it was close to the core of scientific researchers and a small research room, and it was said that small enterprises were a little elevated to them.
However, they are a little self-conscious to try to open up a new path, trying to take a road that no one has ever walked before, if you let people in the industry know, I am afraid that countless people will scoff at them, scold them for arrogance, and scold them for not knowing the height of the sky.
Su Yiyang listened very carefully, according to what Carl said, and then compared with the development of lithium-ion batteries in his memory, Carl's vision of the direction is basically correct, that is to say, if Carl continues to study according to their ideas, he can finally solve the battery problem of pure electric vehicles.
"Your lithium-ion battery idea is very good, I want to know who came up with the idea of lithium-ion batteries? And can you tell me where your company's core competitiveness or where do you think your company's most valuable place is?" asked Su Yiyang with a smile.
"This ......"
Karl showed a look of embarrassment on his face, after all, Su Yiyang's question was somewhat secretive.
"Mr. Karl, if you can't even satisfy the curiosity of investors, how can you make investors feel at ease to inject capital into you?" Su Yiyang chuckled.
Carl was stunned and surprised, "Are you willing to invest in us?"
Su Yiyang smiled, took out a business card from his pocket, handed it to Carl, and said: "Introduce yourself, Su Yiyang, chairman of Yaoyang Venture Capital, I don't know if Mr. Carl has heard my name." ”
"Sunny Ventures, Su Yiyang, Su Yiyang ......"
Carl pinched his business card, repeated Su Yiyang's name several times, suddenly raised his head suddenly, and said in surprise: "Are you the youngest Su Yiyang in the 2017 Forbes list of the world's richest people?
"I think the person you're talking about should be me. Su Yiyang shrugged his shoulders and responded with a chuckle.
Carl's face instantly showed a touch of ecstasy, originally he thought that Su Yiyang and the three were just ordinary investors, after all, Su Yiyang and the three were too young, he was chatting with the mentality of treating a dead horse as a live horse doctor, but he didn't expect that the person standing in front of him was actually a world-renowned investment tycoon, a super-rich man with assets of tens of billions of dollars.
If he can get his favor and get his investment, then all the problems faced by his company will be solved, thinking of this, Carl's gaze at Su Yiyang became completely different, and his eyes were full of fire.
"Mr. Su, you ...... Are you really willing to invest in us?" Karl's voice trembled slightly, and his expression was slightly agitated.
Su Yiyang smiled: "It's still the same sentence, if you want to get investment from me, first you have to let me see if you have investment value, right?"
Carl nodded, took a deep breath, no longer worried, and did his best to win Su Yiyang's investment.
After some understanding, Su Yiyang has a general understanding of this Meidikar Automobile Company.
Carl Motors, perhaps more appropriately called the Carl Automotive Institute, is a family-owned company whose core competency is their scientific research capabilities.
Carl's wife, children, brothers and sisters are all very outstanding scientific researchers, some are good at chemical processes, some are good at physical chemistry, some are good at material chemistry, some are good at electrochemistry, and even Carl was originally a very outstanding materials scientist, these people have graduated from various famous universities, and they have very rich scientific research experience.
Five years ago, because they were somewhat unhappy in their original research institutes, they hit it off at a family reunion and decided to start a business, and the result of the business was today's Carl Motors.
But entrepreneurship and scientific research, it can be said that they are completely two concepts, in the past five years they have indeed researched a lot of scientific research results, but many of them are scientific research results that cannot produce real benefits, which has led to the current Carl car company is in a bad situation, and now it has reached the point where it is difficult to maintain.
Listening to Carl's introduction, Su Yiyang bowed slightly, such a single-structure enterprise is exactly what Su Yiyang wants.
How to develop lithium-ion batteries, Su Yiyang is not clear, after all, he has not awakened the memory essence of relevant scientific researchers, he is only clear about the general development of pure electric vehicles.
What he has to do is to point out the most correct path and hire the most professional scientific researchers to develop lithium-ion batteries, which is his purpose, simple and crude, with a clear goal.
Carl Automobile Company has a complete and high-quality scientific research force, coupled with their research on lithium-ion batteries, has been at the forefront of the world, and the idea is clear and correct, which is very in line with Su Yiyang's expected investment goals.
So, after a little thought, Su Yiyang threw his branch to Carl.
"Mr. Karl, I have a $100 million financing proposal here, I wonder if you are interested?"
Su Yiyang's sudden opening startled Carl.
One hundred million...... USD!
"I'm ......" Carl's heart pounded violently, and his face turned red: "I'm interested, interested!"
"Mr. Carl, I am very interested in your idea of lithium-ion batteries, I hope that in the future you can go all out to research lithium-ion batteries, and in the new company reorganized, I hope to occupy ninety percent of the shares, do you have any opinions?" Su Yiyang asked, but he asked at any time, but his tone was undeniable, if Carl rejected him, then he would also reject Carl.
Carl can naturally hear Su Yiyang's subtle meaning, but for today's Carl Automobile Company, Su Yiyang is the person who can pull them out of the quagmire, and is the only life-saving straw, even if the conditions are harsh, he has to agree hard, not to mention that this condition is still very reasonable.
Paying $100 million to occupy 90 percent of the shares has already overestimated them a lot, and if the actual value of Carl Motors is calculated today, they may not even get 5 percent of the shares.
So, Carl's final choice was......
"I agree!"
