033 Stella Qin
Isn't the person on the other end of the line the "landlord" of Yang Yiming and Yu Xiaochun in the United States, Stella Qin, who only showed up on Thanksgiving?
The mysterious, rich, and domineering Asian woman.
At this moment, she was wearing a black Chanel tweed jacket and a goose-yellow beret, sitting at a large long desk, which was displayed in the center of the video link. ”
"You made the call?"
"Who else could it be?" Stella tapped her fingernails on the screen of her phone, as if Yang Yiming should have been able to recognize her number.
"I didn't know it was you calling."
"Forget it, it's okay, you just got it now-"
The entrepreneurial team, which was still making the closing presentation just now, was completely confused by this sudden situation, and every O had a pair on his face: Who is she? Where did she come from? How could she casually interrupt their slideshow and plug in the video link?
"I saw that you didn't answer the phone, so I asked someone to check your and Yu Xiaochun's itinerary and found that you were here all day today. I searched for the location and IP address again, and with a casual gesture, the video got through. ”
"But you're rude to do this, our project promotion is not finished yet!" The CEO finally mustered up the courage to protest to Stella.
"Project pitch?" Stella glanced at the CEO, then turned to Yang Yiming and Yu Xiaochun and asked angrily, "That's what you're doing?" That's why you didn't answer my call? ”
Yang Yiming nodded.
"What project?"
"A kid's basketball trainer..."
"Forget it, I'll see for myself." Stella gestured for Koharu to shut up, and tapped a few times on the keyboard, her eyes quickly browsing from right to left. (Could it be that she remotely accessed the slides that were being presented on this computer?) She watched it for less than a minute, and then quickly came to a conclusion: "This project is not reliable." Revenue and user data are watery, valuations are significantly high, and they will die quickly without the next round of funding - what time are you going to spend with them?! ”
"Hey!"
This time, the protest came from the entire team, three men and one woman, in unison.
"How do you see that?" Yu Xiaochun interjected. While he has a keen interest in nurturing the next basketball seedling, Stella Qin's business acumen has seen it at the Thanksgiving meal, when analyzing several of Yang's sponsorship deals. So hearing Stella's conclusion that it was "unreliable", Yu Xiaochun still wanted to ask clearly.
"yes, you have to make it clear." The CEO echoed Yu Xiaochun's question, and by the way, he raised his serious dissatisfaction.
"First of all, your data has moisture, I have investigated the youth training market in China, and in second-tier cities, high-end VIP courses – which are your main boutique basketball camps – do not have such a large audience. At this age, many parents still regard sports as a hobby for their children, rather than spending real money on professional training from an early age. Therefore, either you have exaggerated the number of course users, or you have raised the unit price of the course, so you can make such a beautiful financial statement. If you disagree with my judgment, you can ask your CFO and COO. ”
Just now, they were talking about how attractive the model is, how healthy the financial situation is, and the CFO and Chubby COO of the gold-rimmed glasses are silent.
Only the CEO himself is still struggling: "But you said that if we don't have financing, we will collapse quickly." Let's be honest, we are not short of money, and we can survive for a long time on our own! ”
"That's right." Stella smiled and threw out her killer feature: "You are not short of money, what you lack is a good story that is attractive." Without Yang Yiming to give you a platform, you can't tell new stories to investors, and you can only slowly develop on the existing scale. When the same project has been financed, you can only wait to be killed! ”
"- Mr. CEO, do you think that's what I'm talking about?"
Stella was still smiling. The group of four over there was so frightened by her that they packed up their documents and brochures and fled, and she smiled even more happily when she saw this.
"Miss Qin, isn't it a little bad for you to interrupt people like this and make them angry?" Yu Xiaochun sent the four away with an embarrassed smile, and turned around to condemn Stella and said.
"Will it? I feel like I've saved you time, and you should thank me. ”
"Thanks? What if there is a chance to cooperate in the future..."
"There is no such thing as a case." Stella categorically interrupts Yu Koharu. The conference room was cold for a few seconds, only to hear her say again: "I do have something urgent to find Yang Yiming." That's why I can't listen to their bragging. ”
"Looking for me in a hurry?" Yang Yiming couldn't think of anything that would find him with this arrogant landlady who had only met once.
"A big deal."
"What's the big deal."
"I'm going to ask you for a time."
"When?"
"That's right, time." Stella and Yang Yiming's conversation was like a code word, and it wasn't until she turned to Yu Xiaochun that people finally understood: "Help me get out of Yang Yiming's schedule in an empty time." ”
"Empty time? When? Why? You know, we've got a full schedule..."
What Yu Xiaochun said is true. The intensity of the activities arranged by Yang Yiming in the offseason is no less than that on the game day.
"I'll let you know a week in advance."
"A week?! I made my plans two months in advance..."
"The plan can't catch up with the change - that's why I remind you now, anyway, when I confirm it, I'll let you know as soon as possible, and I will definitely notify you as soon as possible!"
"Then I need to know..."
"Know? Don't know, it's definitely a good thing for Yiming anyway..."Stella seemed to be unwilling to explain more, and hung up the phone in a hurry.
“No!”
"What?"
Yu Xiaochun actually resolutely refused in English directly, this is probably a situation that Stella, who has always been high and accustomed to giving orders, did not expect at all. As if she couldn't believe her ears, she asked rhetorically.
"I said no.
"You said no to me? Why? ”
"Because I am Yang Yiming's agent. If you still want to make an appointment with him, I must know the subject of the matter! ”
A half-minute silent standoff.
The end of this confrontation was actually won by Yu Xiaochun.
Stella Qin waved her hand, as if pretending to send away an unreasonable madman (in fact, anyone with a discerning eye could see that she was just giving herself a step down), and then said in a relaxed tone:
"I'm going to take the lead in organizing a warm-up game between the Chinese men's basketball team and the American Dream Team, how about it, are you interested?"
Playing against a dream team?
It goes without saying that of course I'm interested! Do you need to ask more?!
But Stella didn't give Yang Yiming and Yu Xiaochun a chance to answer affirmatively interested, and the video connection was cut off directly. Just one sentence:
"Then get ready, wait for me to let you know."
This powerful woman finally won!
