Shen Xiaoman smiled: "Mr. Gao has something to say, please advise, I will listen!"

Gao Lanming's eyes rolled, before she came, she had a basic understanding of the situation of Ai Bing Group, she believes that although the development momentum of this enterprise is very strong, but the strength of the enterprise is still lacking, they want to expand externally, to develop and grow, it is necessary to scale up the project, and these need funds.

And his own Gaolan Fund is the money that was sent.

Gao Lan also smiled: "Mr. Shen, we are an investment company, we have an investment amount of nearly 10 billion US dollars in hand, what we mean is that we want to carry out long-term strategic cooperation with Ai Bing Group, in short, we can invest in you, as for the amount of investment, it depends on the situation of your specific project!"

Shen Xiaolan smiled slightly: "That dare is good, thank you Mr. Gao for his trust and favor in our Ai Bing Group." However, we don't need a large amount of money at the moment, I'm afraid we will disappoint Mr. Gao!"

Gao Lan didn't expect Shen Xiaolan to decline her investment bluntly.

She raised her eyebrows: "Mr. Shen, according to my understanding, whether it is a joint venture company with People's Shopping Mall that you are preparing and operating, or other projects - such as the Internet e-commerce platform you are planning, and your half-way Ai Bing real estate project, you need a large amount of capital injection, otherwise it will be difficult for you to start." At least, it won't start for a short time. ”

Shen Xiaolan's heart sank, and she said in her heart that this woman is not simple, she actually came prepared and had a thorough understanding of the situation of Ai Bing Group.

But Shen Xiaoman is not a castle that will be easily captured, she continued to maintain a quiet smile: "Mr. Gao, I'm afraid your news is wrong." In terms of e-commerce platforms, we have finalized the official launch in three days, and as for the commercial real estate field, we have just stepped in, and we are not in a hurry to go on the project. Meals should be eaten one bite at a time, things should be done one by one, and it is not a good thing for the development of enterprises to be in a hurry. ”

Gao Lan frowned: "Mr. Shen, we are very sincere! You can inquire about the credibility and strength of our Gao Lan Fund." All the companies that cooperate with us will develop into the world's top first-class enterprises in the future. ”

Shen Xiaolan shrugged: "I have no doubt about this, in fact, I also hope to cooperate with Gaolan Fund, you are a very powerful big fund in the field of financial capital, and we have been famous for a long time." ”

Gao Lan's willow eyebrows furrowed even tighter, and after talking for a long time, Shen Xiaoman had always been arrogant and unwilling to say anything, and pushed out of the door for her active investment intentions.

But Shen Xiaolan's words have all come to this, and Gao Lan can't say anything more. She got up helplessly, shook hands with Shen Xiaolan, and then quietly left the company.

Gao Lan returned to the hotel where he was staying, stared in front of the window of the suite on the 25th floor of the five-star hotel in the provincial capital near the bustling commercial street, stared at the beige old building of the People's Shopping Mall not far opposite, and was silent.

On that building, many renovation workers are removing the large signboard of "People's Shopping Mall" and replacing it with the signboard of "Ai Bing Shopping Center".

Gao Lan was suspicious.

She couldn't understand why Ai Bing Group would refuse her investment. Shen Xiaoman didn't even have the intention of cooperating with her in depth, so he directly refused. This is a unique time in Gaolan's more than ten years of investment career.

After Gao Lan left, Shen Xiaoman immediately dialed Guo Yang's phone.

Listening to Shen Xiaoman's words, Guo Yang laughed: "Xiaoman, you did the right thing, the more you reject her so bluntly, the more interested she will be in us." Next, if I'm not mistaken, they will further analyze and judge the operation of our company. ”

"That's how I think about it, it's good for us that VCs come to invest. We can use their funds to launch projects as soon as possible, expand the scale, and then continue to go public and raise funds, forming a virtuous circle. And the reason why they fancy us is nothing more than to use our real economy to achieve the purpose of their listing and cashing. Shen Xiaoman smiled: "But, Guo Yang, I need to discuss the principles with you." ”

"Say it. Guo Yang's voice was very calm.

"Gao Lan definitely wants to take over our group itself, but the principle you set at the beginning was that the group itself should be controlled as a 100% wholly-owned company...... You just give me the truth, can you accept that our group itself is changed into a joint venture joint stock company?"

If Guo Yang does not agree to reorganize the Ai Bing Group and change from a wholly-owned company to a joint venture joint stock company, there will be no way to talk about cooperation with venture capital.

Guo Yang smiled: "Xiaoman, if we take out our subordinate subsidiaries to cooperate with them, I guess the venture capital side will not agree, right?"

Shen Xiaoman shook his head: "I won't agree." These investors are more refined than a monkey, and their abacus is to invest in a project, then operate a project, and withdraw from cashing out immediately after listing. This is how all VC firms work. ”

"Xiaoman, but our group itself has already achieved a backdoor listing by using this asset restructuring with the People's Mall, so why should we bring in venture capital? ”

Shen Xiaoman was silent for a moment: "That's how I understand, Guo Yang." Although we have achieved a backdoor listing, after all, the real listed assets are still Ai Bing United and shopping malls. Our group itself also needs to be listed as a whole packaging operation, and at present, we still need funds, such as e-commerce, real estate, after all, we are now all invested in this asset restructuring from bank financing. ”

"And now the cost of bank financing is higher, and it is not as convenient to use the funds as venture capital. If you can accept it, I can continue to talk to her about it, and it depends on how much you can accept to attract them to the shares......"

There were some things that Shen Xiaoman didn't say. In her values and judgment of the future market, the real big companies that can develop cannot be family-owned enterprises or sole proprietorships, because this system is too backward and invigorating.

But after all, Ai Bing Group is a company founded by Guo Yang, and it is understandable that he wants 100% control.

Guo Yang pondered for a moment: "Xiaoman, how much money do we need at the moment?"

Shen Xiaoman: "As far as the two projects of e-commerce platform and real estate are added up, we are fully operational in place in the early stage, and 10 million US dollars is more than enough, in fact, we don't need so much, but on the other hand, the more funds, the better." ”

Guo Yang fell silent.

He knew that what Shen Xiaoman said was very reasonable, a completely wholly-owned company must be a temporary behavior, and if Ai Bing Group wants to truly go to the whole country and the world, it must be at the forefront of independence in the field of capital operation, and it is unrealistic to go it alone.

"Xiaoman, I have two plans, you can continue to talk to them. First, no more than 20% of the equity, to see how much money they can invest. Second, no more than 34 percent, we need to secure at least the full amount of start-up capital needed for development in the next five years. As soon as Guo Yang said this, Shen Xiaoman was immediately relieved.

Since Guo Yang agreed to introduce venture capital, it is not a problem in terms of the proportion of shares. Venture capital comes in, and it is impossible to hold too high equity, their investment is a short-term behavior, listing and cashing out, and if you let them control a company, they will not agree.

Because this is not in line with the capital operation principle of venture capital.

City C. Bluestar Group.

Zhao San, the owner of the provincial city Tiancheng Trust and Investment Co., Ltd., walked into the Blue Star Building with two female attachés briskly and went straight to the office of the general manager Zhou Bing.

And the security guards and others recognized this noble son from the province, so they naturally didn't dare to stop it, but the call had already reached Zhou Bing's assistant Huang Bingyan.

So Huang Bingyan stopped Zhao San in the corridor in advance.

Huang Bingyan had a respectful smile on her face: "Dong Zhao!"

Zhao San smiled and waved his hand: "Miss Huang, I'll talk to Mr. Zhou about something, about the cooperation business between our two projects!"

According to Zhou Bing's arrangement, Huang Bingyan was there for her: "Dong Zhao, I'm sorry, our President Zhou is not in the company, please come back another day or talk directly to our Chairman Zhou!"

The corners of Zhao San's mouth twitched, and a trace of arrogance in his eyes overflowed: "Miss Huang, Mr. Zhou's car is downstairs, you told me that she was not there?"

Huang Bingyan continued to smile respectfully: "Our Mr. Zhou went out in the driver's car, and she was going to prepare for a wedding recently, so she was usually a little busy and didn't stay in the company too much." ”

Zhao San frowned: "Get married? She's going to get married so soon, isn't she just engaged?"

Huang Bingyan's rhetoric was also taught by Zhou Bing.

Huang Bingyan was dissatisfied when she saw that Zhao San actually asked such impolite words, but she was still respectful: "Yes, she and Mr. Guo are about to get married, and the wedding date is set around May Day! ”

Zhao San's face was completely gloomy.

He has coveted Zhou Bing's beauty for more than a day or two, but he hasn't had time to launch a more crazy offensive, Zhou Bing is going to marry Guo Yang, which makes Zhao San very unhappy.

Zhao San stomped his feet, his face gloomy: "Tell you Mr. Zhou, let her make an appointment with me to meet immediately, otherwise, our two cooperation projects in the provincial capital and this city will not be able to continue!"

Zhao San's threat was beyond words.

Zhao Sansan has a background, his Tiancheng Trust is one of the many industries of the Zhao family in the provincial capital, Tiancheng Trust and Bluestar Group have a large-scale real estate project jointly developed in the provincial capital, and there is also a fine chemical project in the city, which is a major project currently under construction by Bluestar Group, which is related to the foundation of Bluestar Group.
