Twists and turns

Previous Chapter

Ke's mother acquiesced to Xiao Ke's request to start a business, but she just said that you should first contact Boss Xiao Wen about the specific matters to see how they planned, and then we will come back and discuss it. Xiao Ke saw that his mother was relieved, things had taken a turn for the better, and he readily agreed, and hurriedly called Boss Wen, saying that they would discuss it together as soon as possible and see how to operate later.

This time, they met at a café. As soon as they met, Boss Wen took out two bottles of Rémy Martin XO and handed them to Xiao Ke and said that he should go to visit Professor Ke and Ke's mother, but he was afraid of disturbing them, so he gave two bottles of wine as a meeting gift, please pass them to Professor Ke. You must know that at that time, these two bottles of wine in the mainland were equivalent to more than half a year's salary of ordinary wage earners. Xiao Ke couldn't refuse, but after thanking him, he happily accepted it, and then they turned to the topic.

Boss Wen gave Xiao Ke a rough calculation, from land acquisition to the construction of the plant, and then the investment in the production line and the procurement of raw materials, etc., the overall investment cost is about 50 or 60 million yuan, which is the minimum investment. Because they have some land reserves, and the factory is also a large piece of vacancy, the investment in infrastructure has been saved, but the investment in production lines and raw materials still needs to be large. When Xiao Ke was in Japan, after all, he had some contact with the company with Professor Kato, and he still had some concepts about investment, and he felt that Boss Wen's calculation method was still relatively reliable.

Xiao Ke asked where the funds came from. Boss Wen said that at present, he can contribute about 10 million, and Boss Wu in Taiwan can probably make more than 20 million. When Xiao Ke heard that there was still more than 20 million left, he was a little anxious and hurriedly asked what to do. Boss Wen smiled at his anxious appearance and said don't worry, they can take out a loan. The construction and production of IC production line are high-tech enterprise projects, and you can apply for high-tech enterprise support loans, and if it is not enough, you can find underground money to raise money. When Xiao Ke heard about the underground bank, he was anxious again, saying that it was illegal and unreliable. At this time, Boss Wen felt that Xiao Ke was like a child who had never been seen in the world, and his courage was too small, so he said that you don't have to worry about this, he and Boss Wu have their own methods. Xiao Ke saw that he was so calm, and his heart was a little calmer.

Boss Wen suddenly remembered something, and said to Xiao Ke with a little difficult to say: "There is something I forgot to mention, this is mainly what Boss Wu meant." Their Taiwanese businessmen are relatively pragmatic, and their business operations are also standardized. Boss Wu said that according to the rules, he and I are investors, you are a technical shareholder, according to their practice, technical shareholding generally has to invest more than one percent of the capital at a minimum, it is impossible to be less, and then distribute shares to technical shareholders according to everyone's agreement. In other words, you have to invest at least 500,000 funds, and then we will calculate the shares for you at three times the value, that is, about three percent of the shares, do you see if there is a problem?" Boss Wen asked Xiao Ke cautiously tentatively.

"Oh my God, I don't have that much money. I also studied abroad and just came back from abroad, and I basically didn't have a penny left. I know that your and Boss Wu's requests are very reasonable and fair, but I really don't have that much money!" Xiao Ke was really anxious this time, so anxious that he stomped his feet, feeling that there was really no hope at this moment.

"Then can you borrow some money from your family temporarily?" Boss Wen looked at the irritable Xiao Ke and asked patiently.

"My parents are both university teachers, and they usually save money and use all their savings for me to study abroad. Xiao Ke sat back on the sofa and spread his hands helplessly.

"Don't worry, don't worry, I'll discuss it with Boss Wu again and see if there's any way. This was the end of their first formal meeting.

At this time, it is the turn of spring and summer, and it is the season of fresh breezes. After returning home, Xiao Ke pushed open the window irritably, and immediately a gust of wind hit, but he didn't feel a little refreshed. I thought that today's talks would go well, but I didn't expect to encounter unsolvable problems as soon as I left the division. He knew that this 500,000 yuan was an insignificant amount for Boss Wen and them, but for his family's current economic conditions, it was a daily number, an insurmountable mountain.

He also understands in his heart that for a project with a large investment of 50 or 60 million, as the core technical management personnel inside, he is also the key person in the success or failure of the project. The more he thought about it, the more irritable he became, and he couldn't find a way for a while, just pacing back and forth in the living room, feeling that in one day, he had changed from a young man in his prime to a depressed middle-aged man.

After Boss Xiao Wen returned to the hotel, he immediately talked to Boss Wu on the phone and reported the first communication between him and Xiao Ke to Boss Wu. He said that it seems that Xiao Ke wants to invest in this project, but the deposit seems to be a problem for him, can he be accommodating and don't let him take the deposit.

"Brother Wen, we are not short of 500,000 yuan from him, think about our investment of more than 30 million yuan, and we have to borrow everywhere to fill the remaining more than 20 million, the investment is so large, the slightest carelessness will bankrupt the family. The two of us don't know what high-tech production is, and it all depends on Xiao Ke. If he doesn't give it his all and is half-hearted, we're miserable. Besides, in case the time comes, some companies take a fancy to him and pull him into the water, or his technology is transferred to a second company, we are all passive. So I have to let him take out 500,000 deposits, so I have always felt that it is less, you also knew at the beginning, I originally planned to let him invest 2 million, but you said that he would definitely not be able to take it, so I reduced it to 500,000, and now 500,000 can't come out, so how can our interests be protected, what do you say, Brother Wen?"

"Yes, yes. However, it seems that he really can't take out 500,000!" Boss Xiao Wen sighed, the two of them glanced at each other, buried their heads again, and fell silent together.

In the evening, Ke's mother came home and saw Xiao Ke who was listless and collapsed on the sofa playing a game console, and knew that things were not going well today. Xiao Ke told Ke's mother what happened, and sighed after speaking: "A penny is hard to beat a hero!" Ke's mother also frowned after hearing this, feeling that things were indeed a bit tricky. If they encounter technical problems, she and Professor Ke can still help, but the problem of shortage of funds cannot be solved with the current economic conditions of his family. Moreover, they were all high-ranking intellectuals and had never borrowed money from others. She did think a little ill-conceived about this matter, thinking that Xiao Ke would not worry about finding investors if she brought back such good technology, but the concerns of these small private entrepreneurs were not unreasonable. I had to comfort Xiao Ke and said, if this one really doesn't work, let's find other companies and see if there is a way.

A few days later, it was the weekend, and Huiwen also went home. She has been working harder lately, and she usually calls home less often. Every day after work, I either study the medical records or write an analysis summary. She knew that she was about to go to graduate school, and she would have to leave the front line for a long time in the next three years of campus life, and she had to summarize the clinical experience of the past three years as soon as possible.

When she got home, she could tell at a glance that Ke's face was full of tiredness, and although Ke's mother was still as warm as ever, she was keenly aware that they were not happy. quietly asked Ke's mother what happened, and Ke's mother didn't avoid it, so she told Xiao Ke about all the difficulties encountered this time. When Huiwen heard this, she was not only anxious for her husband, but also said helplessly, there is indeed not so much money at home, what can I do.

Just when the family was at a loss, the phone rang. Xiao Ke picked up the phone listlessly, and remembered Boss Wen's voice in the receiver, still so gentle, "Ke Shao, we've been waiting for you for a few days, how can you make any progress?

When Xiao Ke heard this, he was so excited that he didn't know what to say, and could only say: "Boss Wen, you and your whole family are so good to me, I really don't know how to thank you." In short, I will do my best to repay you and your family in the future!" Xiao Wen said, tears welling up for a while.

"Ke Shao, you're polite. Didn't you say it a long time ago, it's all your own people, don't be polite. If you make money, just give it back to my wife. If you don't think there's any problem, let's go back with me as soon as possible, as soon as the funds are in place, we can do it with great fanfare, you say it's okay, Boss Wu is also very anxious, and he is still waiting for us over there. Boss Wen still said tepidly.

"Okay, okay, I'm ready to get ready, and we'll leave together in a few days. ”
