Chapter 175: Don't waste other people's time, don't take advantage of other people's intelligence
Danny had always heard that Aimee's business was doing well, and when he came to her company, he was a little disappointed: after so many years, why is the office still so small and there don't seem to be many people? Her Brennan has seen so many excellent entrepreneurs, why is she so tolerant of her wife? Is it really just to make her happy?
"Aimee, how much turnover can your company do in a year?" As soon as Danny sat down, he asked straight to the heart.
"It's almost gone now, and I'm counting on making up for some from e-commerce." Aimee also answered bloodily.
"So what have you been busy with all these years? Didn't I hear that your business is doing well? What is the standard for a good person? After Danny finished speaking, he immediately realized that he had come here, and the time on the road could not be wasted, anyway, this Aimee must have resources, just to see who has the ability to dig it out, or find a way to find a business breakthrough.
"Then you'll have to ask someone who is okay with you. My own assessment is that you have done okay before, and you are not at the right time, and you are at the time when you are planting your heels and trying to get up. "Danny is familiar with and admires Aimee, who is so confident, calm, and quick to get up, good posture, and smooth movements.
"That's okay, if you fall, you will fall, but the experience of the previous few years, if you comb it well, you can also use it to package. Your current e-commerce is installed in a new company, and I will help you find a VC! ”
(Author's note: VC–VentureCapital)
"Danny, I know you're not someone willing to waste your time, and so am I. In order to make the possible cooperation between the two of us more efficient, can we set clear goals together, such as the amount of financing, valuation, target institutions, and stop loss points in time? ”
"In addition, I will definitely not give you a high upfront consultant fee, I can only help me raise the money before I pay you."
"If you can accept these conditions, we will discuss them in further detail. If you don't think it's okay, then I won't delay you. I know that time is the most expensive thing to do. ”
"Aimee, I just like to talk to someone as straightforward as you, every second counts. Yes, we can set our goals today. As for the payment method, I am indeed very realistic, if I change someone else and do not pay the consulting fee in advance, I will definitely not say a word more. However, for you, of course, I don't bargain, I will do what you ask. ”
"I brought all the contracts, why don't I sign them today?" This is Danny, who can sign a contract a second earlier and never say a word more. This is Aimee, do not set the preconditions, and never take advantage of other people's intelligence.
Danny listed 20 target VCs, although Aimee did not know much about this circle, but there were many institutions that sat in her store waiting for her and chased investments, and at that time she began to pay attention to this industry, and when she was invited by these institutions to participate in events or annual meetings, she would also have a learning attitude to learn and gain a long experience. She said to Danny: "In this way, you can help me choose ten of these 20 VCs that have invested in e-commerce and you think are the top VCs, and I will listen to you and meet with them." After the ten families meet, if there is no suitable for each other, we will stop and stop talking about this matter, do you think it's okay? ”
Aimee thought: After meeting ten companies, what should e-commerce do, I should also learn a rough idea from them.
Danny thought: After seeing the time, I also know whether you can get money in this case.
So it hit it off. Danny believes that compared with so many so-called independent B2C e-commerce founders who have received investment now, Aimee's qualifications are really at the level, and the certainty of financing money is still very large.
"You must cooperate with me, don't be too individual, don't see this or that." He told Aimee.
"Don't worry, I'm not so ignorant, I understand that you are my agent now, and I have to listen to your arrangement." Aimee's analogy is apt.
"Look at Lei lifelike, how famous she is, I arranged for her to meet with investors, and she also fully cooperated. I was also worthy of her and raised a lot of money for her. Look at it, her film and television company will definitely become a dark horse in the industry! ”
"I'm already arranging for her company to invest in Zhou Yijian's studio. On the surface, it seems to have nothing to do with it, but in fact, Zhou Yijian can build momentum for her company's works and artists. Where can an artist leave the paparazzi? It's a symbiotic relationship. Have you noticed that there has been a lot of news about Lei Xuxu lately? Her image is also more positive than before? This is all the credit of Zhou Yijian! ”
Danny is really a treasure when it comes to the entertainment industry now.
"It's not just Lei Xuxu, I also asked Zhou Yijian to help Du Jifei position herself and send some news that is conducive to building her image. Du Jifei's identity is different from Lei Xuxu, and he cannot be completely operated as an artist, and his methods are more exquisite. Du Jifei is a customer, but I introduced it to Zhou Yijian, and Mi Weichun paid for it. Lao Mi sent this to his wife, which is much more effective than sending jewelry bags! ”
Danny eats this very well. Aimee also knows that for Fei Fei, a positive personal brand image is her most valuable asset.
"Danny, Lei Xuxu and Du Jifei are all successful women with a very good foundation, you use your professionalism and wisdom to help them further optimize and improve their personal image, and the results are immediate, which is really amazing! He is worthy of a person with a good brain, and he will become whatever he does! Aimee has reservations about Danny as a person, but has always been very supportive of his business instincts and responsiveness.
"I'm helping you now, too! If you get the investment and have to put on a show, I can also make you a commercial star, and there are people chasing you for a group photo and asking for autographs when you walk on the road. Titles like "Beauty President" were already running through Danny's head.
"Oh, forget it, I'm not going to do this. You also know that the people from our excellent family have received too much education that does not allow personal heroism in the past, so let's be low-key and do things in a high-profile manner! ”
"You're a person with energy, why are you hiding yourself?" Danny's question is something Aimee hasn't thought about all along.
Danny is not the only one who thinks Aimee has energy.
Shi Jianqi has been looking for someone who can help him get through the relationship with Guokang's headquarters. After thinking about it, I thought of the old leader - although Zheng Min was transferred to Shanghai, he was also in Guokang's system, maybe he had a way? After getting through the phone, what Zheng Min said to him surprised him greatly: "Don't you know that Xiao Ning, who used to be in your platinum boat, is Ning Qian, and has a good relationship with the high-level of Guokang?" ”
"Who? Xiao Ning? Is it? I don't really know. "Very much to Shi Jianqi's surprise, Ning Qian has already left this system.
"Do you have any connection with Ning Qian?" Zheng Min asked curiously.
