Chapter 83: Counting is Counting
Mr. Gan, the boss of Gan Lequan, also opened this investment plan, but he didn't see any problems for the time being. Turning her head to look at Lin Jieyun, the expression on her face was startled.
Lin Jieyun glanced up at Zhou Ze and saw that the latter was still looking at her with a smile, as if the investment agreement he took out was a complete win-win agreement.
However, the deep meaning behind this agreement is far from being as simple as it seems.
If there is any difference, the change is that the previous investment fund has been changed from a lump sum payment to a five-stage investment, except for the first stage of R&D initial funding, and each of the other four phases of investment corresponds to one of the planned development schedules.
Specifically, the overall investment process is as follows: before the official start of R&D, Zhou Ze first repays the initial capital of 10 million, and then the funds for each stage are divided into two parts: the advance payment at the beginning of the stage and the support fund for the next stage of development after the end of the stage.
The first and second phases repaid 20 million funds respectively, with an advance payment of 1 million, while the third stage directly soared to 5 billion RMB, with an advance payment of 100 million. In the fourth and fifth stages, they are respectively one billion.
As for the solution to R&D difficulties in investment, the agreement states that once R&D difficulties occur, the investor will not provide any additional financial support for the difficulties, but once the R&D cannot be continued, the R&D party only needs to pay 10% of the overall amount of liquidated damages at the current stage.
In terms of the terms of default, this seems to be more reasonable. Normally, in the event of a default, the party that is unable to perform should repay at least 30% of the investor's overall investment, but this agreement only needs 10% at the current stage, which can be said to be very low.
But is this really the case?
After Lin Jieyun took a few looks, she reacted, if this project was really implemented like this, not only would they not be able to make Zhou Ze lose his family, but they would have to lose hundreds of millions!
Why did Zhou Ze invest in this impossible project, not only will he not lose money, but he will still make money?
In fact, in this project, the first two phases of R&D are actually achievable, and there will be no problems with these two phases.
However, the most important problem arises in the third phase, which can never be completed.
According to the content of the investment agreement, the initial capital of 10 million, the end of the first two phases of 20 million, plus the 100 million of funds at the beginning of the third phase, add up to 150 million.
However, if this stage cannot be completed, they will have to pay 10% of the five billion, which is 500 million.
In other words, Zhou Ze is not worried about losing at all, because this liquidated damages alone can make him a net profit of 350 million!
Zhou Ze said with a smile: "How, Lin Dong, do you think this agreement is still appropriate? Hey, in fact, I've been thinking about whether it should be paid off at the beginning or at the end." Thinking about it, I think, people, you still have to have a goal, and you have to be motivated to do things. Wouldn't the thought of having a large bonus to be awarded at the end of one phase of the project make the completion of the project more efficient and of higher quality?"
Lin Jieyun stared at this agreement, then raised her head and smiled: "I think this agreement has certain merits, but compared with the previous agreement, it still lacks a certain feasibility." If Mr. Zhou thinks that the previous agreement is unacceptable, then I would like to ......"
At this moment, Zhou Ze suddenly interrupted Lin Jieyun's words and said, "I think, it's better to ask Mr. Gan directly about this question." After all, Gan is always the proposer of this plan, and he must know the bottom line of this plan, and he should naturally have a good idea of which of the two agreements has better returns and lower risks. ”
When Mr. Gan heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart that I was an instructed minion, and I didn't know anything about this plan at all.
So, he had no choice but to turn his gaze to Lin Jieyun.
Who knows, Zhou Ze suddenly walked over to him, just in front of him and Lin Jieyun, and said with a smile: "Mr. Gan, good things don't treat people, I hope you can think about it from your own point of view." Can I pay a billion dollars for your plan, and is anyone else willing to pay that high?"
When Mr. Gan heard this, he couldn't help but swallow dryly. He had to admit that the price offered by Zhou Ze was too tempting. He knew that the investment that this plan was originally expected to pull was only a little more than 100 million at most, but this 100 million suddenly rose to billions, who could bear this temptation?
At this moment, Zhou Ze continued to smile and said: "Mr. Gan, look at it again, there is no difficulty in the implementation of this plan, for you, it can almost be said to be a trivial matter. Don't you want to let go of such an opportunity to put money in your hands and put it in your pocket? Don't you want to take a chance to turn the tables?"
"Ahem," Lin Jieyun suddenly cleared her throat and said, "Mr. Gan, I suddenly found that this plan is still a little incomplete, why don't you revise the plan first, and then talk about investment matters another day after the plan is revised and improved?"
Lin Jieyun suddenly felt a little nervous at this moment, she was worried that Zhou Ze suspected that the plan was fraudulent, and she took out the information from this Mr. Gan's mouth, so she didn't tell Mr. Gan the essence of the impossible implementation of the plan.
In case he listened to Zhou Ze's nonsense and agreed to let Zhou Ze invest, once the final plan failed, he would have to face a high liquidated damages of 350 million.
This man's inability to pay the money has nothing to do with herself, she is just afraid that this man will reveal that this plan was given to him by herself. In this way, for those who have just sat in the position of chairman, the reputation impact is not small.
Now in the eyes of many people on the board of directors, Zhou Ze is the future light of Leoyuan Beverage, and some people even think that he can be equal to himself in the future and work with himself to further develop Leoyuan Beverage.
Once this kind of rumor appears at this time, he will inevitably be labeled as suppressing his colleagues, and even if there is no clear evidence, it will have a big blow to his prestige.
Therefore, this man cannot be made to accept this plan under any circumstances today!
"Mr. Gan, one billion dollars, the opportunity is only at this moment, please decide carefully. Zhou Ze said with a smile.
"Mr. Gan, the plan is not perfect, and if it is implemented now, the consequences will be unimaginable. Lin Jieyun then said.
