Chapter 6 Investors who are stupid and have a lot of money

Zhou Fan's profound professional knowledge and unbridled business ideas deeply impressed the founding team of Hungry, and the feeling of seeing each other late arose.

"Listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years, to be honest, our understanding of the food delivery industry is far less than yours." Zhang Xu was both emotional and ashamed.

Compared with professionals, people take one step at a time and look at ten steps, and their team is extremely superficial and short-sighted.

Zhang Xu feels that now that he is hungry, he lacks an entrepreneurial mentor like Zhou Fan to clear the clouds and fog ahead for them and point out the way forward.

"Mr. Zhang is too modest." Zhou Fan smiled faintly, showing off in front of the future industry bosses, and it was inevitable that he was a little proud in his heart.

Fortunately, I have used several takeaway platforms in my previous life, and the advantages and disadvantages of each platform are basically clear.

"It's rare to have a like-minded investor, originally we didn't plan to raise money so quickly, but Mr. Zhou is different from other investors, please give us a few minutes to discuss." Zhang Xu got up and said.

"This is as it should be, whether you accept my investment or not, everyone is a friend, and I am honored to meet four aspiring young people." Zhou Fan's words were sincere, which made Zhang Xu and others more favorable.

There was no special conference room, so the four of them had to go out into the corridor and discuss in whispers.

"What do you think of Mr. Zhou's investment intention?" Zhang Xu looked at the other three partners.

"I'm okay with that."

"I agree."

"I agree."

Out of admiration for Zhou Fan, no one objected to the investment, and there was controversy over how much stake should be appropriate.

Zhang Xu has always been cautious about financing, and later mentioned in a speech that financing is to sell your flesh and blood.

As he himself said, he didn't think about introducing external funds so quickly at first, but it was Zhou Fan's eloquence that moved him.

It was discussed for five or six minutes, and the four of them gave answers.

"Mr. Zhou, after discussion, we unanimously agreed to accept your investment, but the investment amount was reduced to 3 million, accounting for 20% of the shares, are you satisfied with this result?" Zhang Xu asked apprehensively.

Investing 3 million, but only 20% of the shares, shows that the valuation has reached 15 million, and the current hungry bar is far from worth this price.

In fact, Hungry Bar in 09 is just a grass platform, not to mention other districts, even in Nanpu District, it has not been able to fully occupy the market.

As early as 2007, a food delivery platform called Xiaoyezi was established, covering most of Haicheng, and if Hungry wants to develop and grow, it must defeat this powerful opponent.

Zhang Xu himself lacked the belief of victory, and he didn't dare to expect Zhou Fan to have confidence in being hungry, so he was mentally prepared for financing failure.

Under the gaze of four scorching eyes, Zhou Fan said in a deep voice: "I'm not satisfied. ”

"......Sure enough," Zhang Xu sighed silently in his heart, and said with a wry smile of disappointment: "Considering the future development of Hungry, we can't give up too many shares in the start-up period, I'm really sorry." ”

"We can talk about shares slowly, and such an important matter as investment cannot be discussed in a few words." The Kang family played a round.

"No, you misunderstood, I'm very satisfied with the proportion of shares, but I am dissatisfied that you see yourself too cheaply, and the investment amount remains the same, which is still five million." Zhou Fan said loudly.

The four founders were momentarily stunned.

The first time I met this kind of person, a stupid investor with a lot of money, did not ask for more shares, but took the initiative to increase the amount of investment, too much money and nowhere to spend?

"Mr. Zhou, do you really want to exchange five million for 20% of the hungry shares?" Zhang Xu's eyes widened in disbelief and asked again.

In this way, the valuation of Hungry Bar is 25 million!

Thinking of this number, the four of them all breathed at the same time.

"I'm not optimistic about hunger, but the fighting spirit of the four of you, I believe that in the near future, hungry will go out of Nanpu under your leadership, out of Haicheng, and all over Shenzhou."

Zhou Fan's words were like a shot in the arm, which made Zhang Xu's four people boil with blood and their hearts surging.

The person who dies for his confidant, what is a confidant, this is a confidant!

How did they know that Zhou Fan's heart was happy at this moment, and he got 20% of the shares for five million, which was simply a double profit.

Even if the shares are diluted without additional investment in the future, this investment can still bring a hundredfold return.

You know, in 2018, Hungry Bar was acquired by Ali's father, with a valuation of 9.5 billion US dollars!

The reason why he was willing to spend an extra two million was mainly to win the trust of Zhang Xu and the others.

Zhou Fan doesn't plan to do a hammer deal, lay a good emotional foundation, and if he needs financing in the future, the first thing to consider is himself.

Of course, under the influence of rebirth, the fate of the hungry bar in this life has changed, but it must have changed for the better.

Just relying on the previous high-minded talk, Zhang Xu and the others can avoid many detours.

Especially in the transition period of this era, with correct guidance and huge capital investment, Hungry has the advantage of layout in advance, step by step.

As long as the grand strategy does not make mistakes, at least in the next ten years, Hungry Bar will firmly occupy the leading position in the food delivery industry.

After signing the investment agreement, Zhou Fan transferred the money on the spot, and his boldness made the founding team feel more at ease.

Backed by such a big financier, the pace of expansion is no longer limited by funds, the development time is greatly shortened, and the future is bright!

After talking about business, it was already past lunchtime, and the conversation was too hi and forgot the time.

Zhou Fan patted his forehead in annoyance, and it was estimated that he would inevitably be scolded when he went back.

Zhang Xu was still unsatisfied, and pulled him to the food stall downstairs to eat barbecue.

Anyway, it's too late to rush home now, Zhou Fan sent a text message to Lin Xin'er, and simply let go out and sacrifice his life to accompany the gentleman.

Everyone chatted happily while eating, and Zhou Fan continued to instill some ideas into them, which subtly formed an influence.

In the eyes of Zhang Xu and the four of them, this big donor can not only provide funds, but also put forward suggestions with more commercial value.

The meal lasted for more than an hour, and it was evening when he got home, and Zhou Fan was nervous.

There is no one in the house, those who should go to work go to work, those who should play mahjong go to play mahjong, and the made up rhetoric does not come in handy.

After taking a shower and doing housework for a while, the mobile phone rang and the word "Kong Shun" was displayed on the screen.

Seeing this name, a round face appeared in Zhou Fan's mind.
