Volume IV, Section 56 Business

After taking care of the domestic affairs clearly, Lu Li and Li Zhengrong said goodbye and returned to Hong Kong non-stop, and when they returned to Fangdi Hot Pot Restaurant, it was exactly half past one in the afternoon of October 31. Step into the hot pot restaurant, it's so lively inside! Gu Zhong and Li Xueqing kept walking back and forth,

"Lee Kee, are you back?"

Lu Li heard the voice and looked over, and smiled sincerely: "Mr. Zhu, Mrs. Zhu, welcome, welcome." ”

"I heard from the guy in your store, you went back to the mainland, is there something wrong?"

"It's a bit of a thing, but it's all settled, thank you."

While talking, Gu Zhong and Li Xueqing walked by, took his duffel bag, and asked, "How is it?" ”

"No,"

"How so?"

Lu Li shook his head and said with a smile: "Forget it, he really doesn't want to, no matter what others say, it's a layer apart, and I've thought about it, this is also a kind of experience for him - I'll tell you when I come back." How's the business? ”

"Didn't you see that too? By the way, Miss Ou and her friends also came to eat upstairs. ”

"I'll go up and have a look." He and Mr. Zhu nodded, walked up the stairs, and entered the entrance of the second floor, where they saw Ou Chenli facing this side, eating deliciously! Lu Li was a little stunned for a while: This girl is so ugly?

Ou Chenli is indeed a little embarrassed, the hot pot itself is a hot thing, and the weather is warm, her face is full of hot sweat, and she has not forgotten to pour beer one bite at a time, opposite her, there are two men, only see the back, think that one is Zuo Yugang, and the other is unknown. Ou Chenli didn't know if it was because she was hungry or because of the change in her taste after pregnancy, so the chopsticks rained down and took out the slices of meat, seafood and vegetables in the hot pot, regardless of whether it was hot or not. Pick it up and send it to your mouth, the spicy and hot food makes her hiss endlessly, and it has become a scene in a hot pot restaurant!

Lu Li took a few steps to the table, and only then did Ou Chenli notice his arrival, and his two lips were red. Looking up with food in his mouth, he said, "Huh? ”

Lu Li smiled and nodded to Zuo Yugang, "Mr. Zuo, welcome." ”

"Lee Kee?" Zuo Yugang also shouted, shook hands with him with a smile, "I heard that you went back to the mainland?" How's it going, is it all done? ”

"That's it." Lu Li pointed at Ou Chenli with a funny look, "What's wrong?" ”

"I suddenly want to eat hot pot. And he brought her. ”

Lu Li turned to Ou Chenli and smiled, "I can see that I am really hungry, ah?" ”

Ou Chenli was a little embarrassed, touched her increasingly swollen belly, and lowered her head shyly, "I...... If you suddenly want to eat something spicy, you ...... Just come here. Well. I brought the money today. ”

"It's okay, it's okay. It doesn't matter if you don't have any money, I can afford to hire you. ”

Ou Chenli's beautiful eyes rolled, and she glanced at him, "I've known you for so long, only this time can I say a human word." ”

Luli was not angry with her either, and nodded to a few people. Turn away; Ou Chenli's eyes blinked, and she got up and chased after her, "That, Mr. Lu, I have something to tell you." ”

"Yes. What's up? ”

"Well, the last time you left, I was in charge of applying for a loan with the bank before you left. Not only this, but also the cooperation with Stephen Company, there has also been some progress. Because the other party has always refused to agree to the request to occupy the company's shares, it is no longer a condition for this matter, but in another way, that is, in the distribution of benefits, hoping to occupy more shares. ”

"Specifically?"

"Specifically, they want 33 percent of all the revenue from the hot pot restaurant."

“33%? Good guys, isn't that a job for them? Luli was surprised and asked, "How can this work?" ”

"I also knew it wouldn't work, so I discussed it with Alan and thought ......"

"You're talking to Alan? When will it be the two of you to consult for me? You think this is your storefront? ”

Ou Chenli's little face turned pale, and her delicate body trembled with anger, she really couldn't imagine that he would be so ignorant, losing that his body was becoming more and more inconvenient, and he had to run back and forth for his affairs, but in the end he ended up with such a result? The girl hated it, smacked him, turned her head and left!

Lu Li also realized that his words were too much, and his hand quickly grabbed her hand, "That, Miss Ou, I'm sorry, I said it wrong!" I'm sorry! ”

"You let me go."

Lu Li hurriedly let go, "That, Miss Ou, I'm sorry, I'm ...... I'm sorry, anyway, I said it wrong, you and Alan are busy with my things, and I blame you instead, I'm really sorry. That, you go on, you go on. ”

"I'm tired, impatient to continue!"

Lu Liming knew that she was making trouble, but after all, it was his own fault first, so he had to relent, "Okay, I'll move the chair for you." ”

Ou Chenlian sat firmly on the chair, glanced at the man opposite, and was secretly happy, "I'm thirsty." ”

Luli was helpless, and took another cup of tea, "I don't want to drink tea, it's hot, I want to drink beer." ”

"You're pregnant, don't you drink beer?"

"What do you care? I'm going to have a beer. ”

Lu Li shook his head decisively, "No, if you don't care about your child, then I can't take care of it, but in my place, if you don't provide beer to pregnant women, you can barely drink tea, don't you listen?" Do you believe it or not, I won't even give you tea? ”

Seeing him talk like this, Ou Chenli became honest and pursed her mouth aggrievedly, "Then don't drink it, don't be angry." ”

"Tell me, what the hell is going on?"

Ou Chenli grinned and explained a few words to him.

For his business, Ou Chenli and Zhang Dadong went back and forth for many days, contacting almost all the banks in Hong Kong, but the answers they got were all disappointing, a hot pot restaurant, although there are some business results, but with an operating income of no more than 600,000 yuan per month, to borrow more than 40 million, all bank practitioners are unwilling to participate in such a gamble with almost no chance of winning!

In the end, Zuo Yugang thought of a way: plant widely and harvest thinly. With a total loan amount of 45 million won, it is natural that the bank can afford to take much less risk. It will be much smoother to handle.

"Didn't you just say that there are signs of success with the Stephen Company? If you can get money from them, is it necessary to take out a loan from the bank? ”

"That's also on the basis of the success of the cooperation with the other party! You just said that 63% of the income is impossible for you to promise, right? ”

"Yes."

"Isn't that it? So. After discussing with Allen, I thought that it could be divided into two steps, first of all, to continue the negotiations with Stephen and at the same time to negotiate with the bank, so that even at the negotiation table with Stephen Company, we could take more initiative. ”

"Okay. I agree. ”

Ou Chenli nodded, and raised her round chin as if she could help him, "Then, Mr. Lu, according to your bottom line, how much share will you give in the negotiation with Stephen's company?" ”

"I don't know much about this. But I guess, it can't be more than a quarter, right? ”

"That's 25%?" Ou Chenli thought for a moment. Based on the monthly operating income and net profit of Fangdi hot pot restaurant, 25% is around 360,000 yuan, such a figure is difficult to satisfy the other party, she told Lu Li of her concerns, and said: "If you can, can you give me a little more permission?" “

"What permissions. About what? ”

"That is, I hope to get your authorization, and when negotiating with Stephen's company, I will exchange this business share and part of the company's equity transfer procedures in exchange for the other party's capital injection into you."

"What kind of company am I, why do you always say 'equity, equity'. There are no stocks at all, where does it come from? ”

"Why don't you understand? Stephen & Co. offered to work with you because they thought you were a potential stock that would make a profit for them later on. With your current strength, of course, there is no equity issue yet, but in the future, if you can really make achievements and can prove your value to the other party, it will really be listed, and it will not be a problem at all. That's why I always talk to you about equity. ”

Luli gradually understood and said, "Does it mean that they are preparing for the future?" So, aren't they worried that I'm going to lose money? ”

Ou Chenli chuckled and said with disdain: "Do you think the British have too much money and want to throw it into the sea?" Of course, it is necessary to conduct a considerable degree of market research to confirm that you are the kind of person who will develop in the future, and then bet on you. ”

Luley thought for a moment, "Well, if you think,...... Well? He suddenly felt that something was wrong and asked, "You have been in this business for a long time, which one do you think I should choose?" I mean, should I rather give up some of my immediate interests and increase the amount of profit I give to the other party, but also resolutely refuse to give them the opportunity to enter my company in the future? Or is it accommodating? ”

Ou Chenli's beautiful eyes lit up, staring at him for a long time, but she didn't say a word, "What's the matter, what do you think I'm doing?" ”

"Nothing." Ou Chenli hurriedly shook her head and said, "I just thought it was quite surprising, you actually thought of it so quickly?" ”

Lu Li smiled, "Don't come to this set, be serious." ”

"If you want to be serious, it's better to take a step back, well, give them some credit, and also give them some equity, but both sides have to be cut. That's the best I can think of for you right now. ”

"Specifically?"

"Specifically, the former cannot exceed 30%; What do you think of the latter on a basis of no more than 7% equity? ”

"Okay. Just do as you say. Lu Li readily agreed, suddenly remembered, and said, "Are you ...... now?" Isn't it that convenient, okay? ”

Ou Chenli pursed her lips and said dissatisfiedly: "Why, you just saw it?" ”

“…………”

"It's okay, it's still early before the birth!" Ou Chenli looked at him with concern on his face, her heart was happy, and secretly thought, as long as it is for you, don't say that you are a little tired, no matter how hard you work, what is it? (To be continued......)
