Chapter 280: First Successful Financing, With Love
The greatest tradition of the Lin family is perseverance. Lin Hualei pursues the same as Shannan, and so does Father Lin's pursuit of investment opportunities for good projects.
"Nantong, I know that you have your considerations, and Lei Lei also told me about this, so you see this, I know that you want to make a public welfare project, and our capital comes in, not to change the public welfare nature of the platform, but to hope that its public welfare performance will be more prominent. Now that you're just starting out, it seems that you can do it with a few people, but have you ever thought about how a project can be done for a long time without financial support? The strength of a few of you alone is still very small, and you will miss a lot of opportunities because of the cost of time. Not to mention anything else, just say that after you go online in China, you must first solve the problem of resource content, which must be a lot of money, right? “
Dad Lin started his persuasion work on the sofa in the living room of Shanantong again. He wore a dressy black athleisure suit, and a few years ago he had been bald, and he had simply shaved his head from then on, but now the top of his bare head was shining, and his eyes were full of earnestness.
"Indeed, Nantong, the technical operation and maintenance personnel we need now are our own people, everyone does it with enthusiasm, but soon after the workload is large, even if we continue to pay part-time personnel, but the new personnel still have to talk about remuneration, and the platform is free at the beginning, content sharing, when the number of users is not large, the amount of advertising can not come up for a while, how to solve the need for funds? What's more, the aggregation, uploading, and editing of content resources require a large number of personnel, and funds must be considered in advance. “
Lin Ming also analyzed beside him.
"Dad, it's not that we don't need capital, but we're worried that when the capital comes in, it will change the original intention of the platform when it can't be controlled. If everyone can feel that it is appropriate, they will sign the problems they are worried about and consider into the agreement, and they will be relieved in black and white. “
Lin Hualei knew what Shannan was worried about, so she helped him say some words.
"Well, a couple of my friends and I have been informed about this, and they're all very interested, so we thought, if we vote, we'd better do it, uh, do it solidly. In this round of investment, we want to invest a total of 1 million, accounting for 20% of the shares, do not interfere with your management, the accounting can be done by Lei Lei, or your team can distribute it freely, just send us a financial report every month, what do you think? “
Dad Lin succinctly stated the investment plan.
He calculated in his heart that four or five of them jointly invested 1 million, and the average amount of money on each person's head was actually two or three hundred thousand, which was equivalent to Lin Hualei staying for one more year to study, not to mention, from what he knew, when they withdrew in the future, the valuation would be high, and they would definitely not lose.
Shannan naturally knew the small account that Father Lin had calculated in his heart, and he didn't want him to invest, but he was thinking about whether to wait more to find a more suitable investor. But now that he has turned to China, foreign capital is not easy to enter, and he doesn't know many domestic investors, and the angel round is mainly about investment teams and ideas, and most of them are generally relatives and friends, and he has some activities in his heart.
"In addition to funds, we still have some resources in China, as long as your user volume reaches a certain level, advertising and resource content come in, we can help introduce it."
Father Lin saw that Sha Nantong's face was a little moved, so he added.
"So, let's confirm with you after a few days of team discussions, what do you think?"
Shannan finally opened his mouth. He doesn't make up his mind easily about any major event, but once it's decided, he almost doesn't change it, it's his habit.
"Good, good, good. You discuss, you discuss. I happen to be here for the past few days, and if you have anything to know, come to me, and I will know everything. ”
Dad Lin is absolutely 100% sincere for his daughter and for the good project in front of him.
After three days of discussion, Sha Nantong, Yun Feng and several other team members believed that the initial risk was high, and if there was money to invest, they should actively consider it, and it would be good to have constraints and regulations on the investment agreement.
In the end, they accepted the investment of Daddy Lin, and Daddy Lin also said what he said and signed the investment agreement issued by them, which clearly stipulates that investors do not interfere with the technology, management and operation and maintenance of the platform, but can recommend talents and introduce resources according to the needs of the platform's operation, and have the right to know the financial expenditure and income of the platform, and the company's phased strategic development plan, including the financing plan, can be informed in the form of a meeting or in writing.
The investment of 1 million will be invested in three stages, the first investment of 300,000 yuan will be the last day of the end of this month, and the first batch of resource content will be launched three months later, the second phase will invest 300,000, and the first batch of users will exceed 10,000 for the third stage, with an investment of 400,000. In this way, after the completion of the third phase of investment, the platform is basically on the right track, and the valuation has naturally increased.
On the day the funds arrived, everyone was very happy, although it was an investment made by Lin Hualei's father, but after all, it was an investment of real money, which showed that the platform was still very valuable, and Sha Nantong and Yun Feng couldn't wait to hug each other countless times on the phone to celebrate this first success.
"But after this large amount of money, you need to invest more, can you keep your energy busy?"
Yun Feng asked on the other end of the phone. She seems to have seen that the Shidao platform has helped tens of thousands of teachers, but she is also worried that everyone is part-time and will go all out.
"It's okay, it's okay now, you will come to Guangzhou after I return to China next year, I will stay in Jiajia Baby, and you will be responsible for teaching and research."
Shannan said with a smile on the other end of the phone.
"Me? I don't understand technology, management, or platform operation, so how can I be responsible? ”
Yun Feng said in a low voice over there.
"Hehe, it's okay, with me, I'll teach you."
Shanan's eyes were closed and he could imagine his girl's expression of asking for help at the moment, which made him feel very satisfied.
He hoped that all the firsts in her life since he met her would be given to her by him. It's like, her first kiss, her first drink, her first drunkenness, her first civilized cohabitation, her first coming-of-age ceremony...... Until now he and her first venture, he is also going to make her the first CEO in her life.
"Okay, then do you want to guide me and listen to me?"
She asked coquettishly over there.
"Hmm. May I? ”
He asked with a smile, and she could hear the warmth of his smile on the phone.
"Yes, but whoever has the right to listen to whom."
Yun Feng's voice was like a milk swallow murmuring through the telephone line, tickling his ears, making his reply can't help but be as tender as hot spring water:
"Good. Your words are very reasonable now, and I will listen to you. ”
"Well, then it's time for you to sleep. Go ahead, or I'll be worried about you, and I'll lose sleep again at night. ”
The voice of the milk swallow suddenly seemed like a splashing mountain spring, warm and crisp, which made him reluctant to give up, and he had to do what she said, hung up the phone, and turned over and over for a while before he smiled and fell asleep in the aftertaste of her voice.
The love and career between him and her are finally like a mother's tree, where children and mothers are born together, and they begin to grow upward.
