Chapter 469: Equity Negotiation!
After a short period of consideration, Chen Shaojie quickly nodded his head.
20 million + RT five people for a year live broadcast buyout!
As long as you are not a fool, it is impossible to refuse such an attractive offer.
You must know that investors are usually only responsible for giving money, and even if Alpha Animation has strong financial resources, it will not give them much help other than investment!
Compared with the two, there is no need to worry about who to choose.
"Next, let's talk about the issue of equity, may I ask Team Lin, what is your expected equity?" Chen Shaojie picked up the teacup.
"How much does Aofei Anime cost?" Lin Mu asked knowingly.
“25%。”
"Then I'll take 30%."
“………”
Hearing this number, everyone, including Chen Shaojie, took a breath of cool air.
No one could have imagined that Lin Mu would open his mouth so loudly that he would ask for thirty percent of their shares as soon as he opened his mouth!
Throughout the hall, the air froze.
At this moment, the negotiations between the two sides can be regarded as the most critical step.
Before that, all of them can only be regarded as reaching a cooperation intention.
Once the issue of equity cannot be discussed, then all the previous efforts can only be regarded as in vain.
In the investment world, situations like this happen every day.
"Team Lin doesn't think the number you want is a bit too much?" Chen Shaojie held the teacup and said leisurely.
30%!
Don't think it's a small amount, whether it's for big businesses or small companies like them that are just starting out.
Like the kind of bridge where you want to take more than 5% of the other party's shares and directly obtain control of the company, usually only appears in YY.
At present, the highest proportion of angel investment is usually 25%, which is still for those entrepreneurs who have no money and no background, only concepts and projects.
You are not the only one in this world who has money, and there is no shortage of Bole who can discern pearls.
In today's society where investment operations have gradually matured, as long as there are good projects, there is absolutely no need to worry about not being able to find investment, especially for people like Chen Shaojie who have had a successful entrepreneurial experience.
He once founded the "Boss" game battle platform, which was acquired by Shanda, and then used the money as capital to acquire the live broadcast of station A.
Today, Chen Shaojie's Douyu entrepreneurial team has been accumulated from raw broadcasting.
An entrepreneur like this who has proven himself more than once is not so easy to fool, even if he is in an unpopular industry with an unknown future.
The reason why Douyu has not signed a contract with Aofei Animation for a long time has been delayed until now is because Chen Shaojie and others are dissatisfied with the other party's asking price is too high.
What I never expected was that the appetite of the person in front of me was actually bigger than that of a well-known group.
"Mr. Chen has a successful entrepreneurial experience, which everyone knows, but it is also a fact that angel investment is risky, and you have not even officially launched the project yet, and you can't even see the finished product, I want a little more protection, which is also human nature."
Lin Mu said eloquently: "What's more, as far as I know, Mr. Chen, although you have had a successful experience, you have also had a failed experience, and the cool show live broadcast you developed in Hangzhou Winger has also caused the company to suffer serious losses, which should not be groundless, right?" ”
"Surnamed Lin, do you want to expose our scars?" Before Chen Shaojie could answer, a young man with a single eyelid who looked a little rough stood up and shot back angrily.
"Lao Zhang, sit down." Chen Shaojie spoke.
Zhang Wenming, his die-hard partner, has been working together since the development of the first head project.
"Mr. Zhang, I'm just stating the facts, and I have no malice." Lin Mu glanced at this guy.
He knew that the short-tempered man in front of him would also become a famous billionaire in the future, concurrently serving as the co-CEO of Douyu, and forming a partner with Chen Shaojie.
It is precisely because of this that Lin Mu did not bother with him.
It is understandable that people with ability have a bigger temper.
Lin Mu took a sip of tea and continued: "Kuxiu live broadcast takes the way of live broadcast of beautiful women, that is, using female anchors to attract users to reward, and even does not hesitate to play side balls to achieve their own goals. ”
"However, it turns out that this method does not work, and it is precisely because they understand this truth that they are determined to make a game live broadcast platform like Titch with e-sports as the core."
"In the current era of e-sports where League of Legends crushes everything, it's not that I'm bragging, our RT team is several times or even dozens of times the original anchor you sent in terms of drainage."
"Of course, the two of you can not believe it, and you can dismiss it, but we can make a comparison by live streaming on the same day, and the time is set on the first day of your website, how about it?"
"Who wouldn't talk big?" Zhang Wenming snorted coldly: "Lao Chen, no matter what you say, anyway, I absolutely do not agree to send 30% of the shares to this person, this project from preparation to launch, in the wind and rain outside, it is we who are born and die, why did he take away 30% of our shares with a word?" ”
Chen Shaojie was silent.
"Both, as you can see, I have shown enough sincerity, whether it can be done or not, the decision is in your own hands." Lin Mu made it clear that he would not back down.
Negotiations have reached this stage, and if he admits intimidation, all the work will be lost.
"25 percent, that's the maximum we can accept." Chen Shaojie put down the teacup and stood up.
Not to mention that the transfer of too many shares will be detrimental to the follow-up financing and the long-term development of the management team.
One of the big facts in front of them is that this will hurt the interests of their entrepreneurial team, and even threaten their project control.
Asking a stranger to take 30% of the equity is more than they can accept!
"If the business is not benevolent, the two of them are good to go, and they don't give it away." Lin Mu also got up.
If you bid higher than your opponent, wouldn't it be foolish if you get the same equity?
Then, he turned to look at Xia Zeguang: "Call the boss of Duo Fun, and say that I have changed my mind and let them come to the door tomorrow with the contract." ”
“28%!”
Although Chen Shaojie knew very well that Lin Mu was saying this to himself, he still didn't hold back and wavered.
Twenty million is a small matter, and for him, the most difficult thing to give up is RT's one-year live broadcast right, which is a huge temptation that all live broadcast platforms are eager to wear.
"Mr. Chen, please take a seat!"
"We can discuss the matter of equity slowly."
"If I'm not mistaken, on last year's Forbes rich list, Mr. Cai Dongqing of Alpha Animation had a net worth of nearly 5 billion, and 20 million was only one-250th of his assets, which is not a big amount."
"But for me, this money is already a huge amount, and I can't hide it, this is almost my entire family property."
"Among Mr. Cai Dongqing's many investments, he may not remember a 20 million investment project, but in my case, as long as it comes to fruition, this is the only goal that I and our entire club will strive for in the future."
"Just imagine, when all your eggs are in one blue and purple, do you dare not do your best to protect this basket?"
