The entrepreneurship foundation wants to invest in its own company, which Lu Tao did not expect, a start-up company, it is normal to lack cash in the early stage, and it is common to find someone to invest, many people may dream of a happy thing.

However, Lu Tao didn't think so. First, because of the short registration time of his company, although it seems that the development momentum is good at present, and the performance is also booming, it is almost impossible to meet the review requirements of the entrepreneurship foundation. How many college students want to apply for entrepreneurship but can't, there is no reason why they haven't mentioned it to anyone, and someone who is pie in the sky wants to rush to invest in himself; the second is that the identity of President Wang makes him feel that things are not as simple as he thinks, and he has not seen the news that some people have used the identity of some officials to pound the enterprise into their own hands, so Lu Tao feels that this matter is still to be discussed.

There are two types of foundations in China: public and non-public, and the difference between the two is mainly whether they can raise funds from the public. Most of the public foundations are semi-official government partnership foundations, while the non-public foundations are mostly funded by enterprises. Listening to Director Ning's introduction, Lu Tao understood that there must be something greasy in it. Chairman Wang is the nephew of the leader of the Science and Technology Commission, and he is engaged in an entrepreneurial project specifically for college students, so does he have other purposes to invest in his company now?

This is a problem that Lu Tao considers, and he can only decide after figuring out this issue. His own company, of course, wants to be his own decision, whether it is operational decision-making, or to make more or less money, he wants to control it in his own hands, the door of capital operation is at most in the newspaper news has some contact, how to operate in real life, how many unknown secrets inside, he currently does not understand at all, he is a down-to-earth person, suddenly appeared such a thing, so that he suddenly felt a little big.

Lu Tao shook his head in his heart, in this way, I am afraid that I will offend President Wang, but it is not as simple as not giving face, with his connections, I am afraid that as soon as he speaks, many colleges and universities in the city will not be able to do business.

Agreed, there were also concerns, Lu Tao thought about it, and said with a smile: "How much does the foundation plan to invest in my company now?"

The amount is very important, if the investment is large, at least it can be seen that the company's development prospects are really valued, as long as the specific dividend plan is negotiated in the future, and the contract is written, he does not mind agreeing. But if you directly invest hundreds of thousands of dollars, you really can't look down on it, and it is completely dispensable, and it is more likely that you just want to occupy a stake in advance.

President Wang took a sip of tea and said, "Five hundred thousand." ”

Lu Tao continued to ask: "What is the specific model?" For the amount of 500,000 yuan, he had no waves in his heart, he went to the Shanghai Stock Exchange by himself, and directly invested 2 million at that time.

President Wang took a closer look at Lu Tao and replied: "Our foundation is for public welfare, and there are currently two main models, one is the funding model in which the foundation entrusts financial institutions to issue interest-free and mortgage-free microcredit loans to you, which is mainly suitable for all kinds of entrepreneurial projects with small amount demand and guaranteed cash flow. The maximum amount of subsidy shall not exceed 300,000 yuan, and the subsidy period shall be 3 years, and the principal shall be repaid in equal amounts of 36 months. ”

"That seems to be a different model. Lu Tao smiled, one said that it was for public welfare, but after all, there is no free lunch in the world, but 300,000 yuan will be repaid according to the same principal amount for 3 years, which is enough for ordinary start-ups, and now since he said that he wants to invest 500,000, it is definitely not this model.

"Yes, after everyone's recommendation, we all feel that your business is suitable for the second model. ”

"I don't know what the second mode looks like?" Lu Tao was also a little interested, and everything had to be listened to to know what kind of calculation he was making.

"The other is a funding model in which the foundation entrusts an incubator to invest in a start-up enterprise and does not enjoy shareholder returns. Speaking of this, President Wang stopped and couldn't help but look at Lu Tao's eyes.

Lu Tao has always been very careful when dealing with the government, and this President Wang is also the nephew of the leader, and he is even more careful.

"Don't enjoy the shareholder return subsidy model?" Is there such a good thing? Lu Tao thought wildly in his heart, basically not believing it.

No one is a fool, even in the name of supporting entrepreneurship, he will not spend it like this with the country's money, not to mention that his identity is there, he has not seen it before, when will it be his turn to be a dick of good things that suddenly come to the door?

Director Ning said on the side: "I also heard what President Wang said, and I think it is quite suitable for your company." As he spoke, he didn't forget to glance at Lu Tao.

Lu Tao secretly said in his heart: Sure enough, it's not that simple, the feeling of this President Wang is planning to take the country's money and find a way to get some into his bag.

"The second model I mentioned is mainly suitable for projects with high technical content or business model innovation and high growth potential. ”

"Yes, Mr. Lu's main work here is also high-tech, and the technical content of some scientific research equipment must be very high. Not only that, as for business model innovation, Mr. Lu's one-stop procurement platform for scientific research instruments can also be said to be very thoughtful and innovative. ”

Director Ning answered on the side, he has been dealing with Lu Tao for a while, and he has always been watching what products Brocade does and how it develops. While having his own selfishness, he is still more optimistic about Brocade from the bottom of his heart. The reason is very simple, Lu Tao is a person who does things, from the very beginning of making consumables to now operating his own independent chemical brand, he already has the meaning of marching in the direction of the entity, he knew when he was not really developed, witnessed the development and growth of Brocade, plus his own support, it can be said that there is a different feeling in his bones. It's as if he is holding a person up step by step from the bottom, and the person he is holding is indeed fighting for him, and his exposure in the industry is getting higher and higher.

"Director Ning has won the award. Lu Tao said modestly.

"It's not an award, this is my sincere words, otherwise how could so many people recommend your company?" Director Ning waved his hand.

"The funding period is still three years, but the amount is 200,000 more, and the incubator does not participate in the company's dividends. Chairman Wang smiled and continued.

Lu Tao already knew at this time that the incubation institution does not pay dividends on behalf of the shares, that is on the surface, if ordinary people want to get the support of the foundation's entrepreneurial funds, the threshold conditions for application alone are estimated to be able to stop many people, if they really believe that it is because of technological innovation, business model innovation such nonsense, it is a fool.

After weighing it a little in his heart, Lu Tao made a decision, and then asked rhetorically:

"Isn't 500,000 a little less?"

It's not that he plans to open his mouth, since President Wang is the nephew of the leader of the Science and Technology Commission, he is naturally able to speak, and has branches in various universities, so of course his connections should be used.

What Lu Tao thought was that if you want money, you can, there is no problem at all, anyway, you said that you would invest 500,000 yuan, and Brocade will also let you stuff it in your pocket at that time. In that case, why not fight for Brocade more?

If you want to set money, you can, but your resources, then you have to let me use, don't you have branches in various universities? With the support of the foundation, it is indirectly equivalent to the support of the Science and Technology Commission, and when the time comes, let the leader come to the company to stand on the platform, in the name of inspection, or say hello to the university, and give the company support, that is what you want to get.
