After Bai Jingfei left, Guan Huang thought a lot.

Due to the pressure on the whole line, the pressure of first-line sales is very high, and there is not much he can do.

Guarantee logistics and lead by example.

The general clerk is 996, and he himself is 711.

However, this is not enough.

Time, for startups, is always lacking.

Many people think that entrepreneurship is to command their subordinates to work hard, and they just brag about it, and Bubble Girl.

In reality, the opposite is true.

Busy, I don't even have time to be soaked by girls.

Guan Huang read the biography of Iron Man in Silicon Valley before his rebirth, Musk often spends more than 100 hours a week at work, that is, 16.7 hours a day, and in an emergency, often more than 120 hours a week.

At the time, I thought it was an exaggeration.

After all, 120 hours, non-human!

The average person feels pain when they work more than 80 hours a week (twice as many hours as a normal person).

The longer the time, the more painful it becomes.

At this time, it is not a simple chicken blood that can impress.

However, when it was his turn, he suddenly discovered that it was not impossible to work seventeen or eight hours a day, seven days a week.

How bold is man, how fruitful is the earth.

For Superman and Vulcan employees, working 60 hours a week is a common thing.

If there is a big promotion or a temporary important project, the technical department's level of hard work is almost 100 hours.

When he was working on the logistics system before, Zuo Fan led the team and lived in the hotel for a month, in addition to eating, drinking, and sleeping, he was writing code and sprinting projects.

In the most urgent time, they don't distinguish between work and work times, and when they can't hold on, they lie down on the carpet under the table for a while, wake up and get up to continue working.

Guan Huang was even thinking that if he hadn't talked about a girlfriend before, he would definitely be single.

There is no time!

Put your heart and soul into it.

What is drunk, what is luxurious, what is beautiful......

Not at all!

There are just tons of reports, constant problems, and crashing system bugs......

Since this path has been chosen, there is only one path that goes dark.

Collecting his thoughts, Guan Huang was about to get up and leave.

Huang Zhaoyou came to the door to report work and financial early warning.

The company is running out of money again.

I just borrowed 10 million yuan from the bank, because I have to use more than half of the investment in the construction of the computer room and customer service center, plus the ten cities are opened at the same time, there is very little left.

If no new funds can be found, the company will not survive until the end of the year.

Guan Huang beckoned the other party to sit down, "Lao Huang, don't worry, the company will start a new round of financing immediately." ”

Huang Zhaoyou breathed a sigh of relief, "We have talked about cooperation"

Guan Huang: "Almost, the company's valuation is 200 million, and the financing is 5 million US dollars, which is about 30 million." ”

Superman's shares are, Ma Jun 10%, Xia Qixi's Rose Fund 5%, and his side accounts for 85%.

This time the financing was 30 million, Xia Qixi followed the investment of 2 million US dollars, and he solved the rest of the funds.

The final stake may be changed to: 85% on his side (divided into three shares: Individual, Tianhe and Vulcan), 6.7% for Ma Jun, and 8.3% for Rose Fund.

Although there are different opinions about Vulcan's rapid expansion, and the valuation is too high (several times over), people are suspicious.

However, Guan Huang was willing to invest all his net worth, and Xia Qixi didn't say anything more after a little consultation.

For start-up companies, they can't use common sense to figure it out, let alone use the existing system to restrain them.

It can even be said that if you choose him, you have embarked on a path of no return, and if you want to be rewarded, there is only one way except not to add to the chaos: pray for luck.

Huang Zhaoyou relaxed, "What are the few of them?"

Guan Huang: "It's all some financial investment, which is not very helpful to us at the moment. ”

Huang Zhaoyou was a little disappointed, he was an old man in the workplace, and naturally knew that financial investments were basically short-term and not interested in the control of the company.

However, apart from money, it does not provide much help for the development of the company.

Startups are also particular about taking money.

Take a friend's money, trust is the key, you can't lose money, in case you lose money, even friends don't have to do it.

Taking entrepreneurs' money, they get not only money, but also resources and help, but they are usually "strong" and have a strong desire to control.

It is the coolest to take the money of the local tyrants, the local tyrants do not know how to operate, but they are rich, there is more money and less things, and the degree of freedom is high. However, the local tyrants were so poor that they had nothing but money left.

Take the money of strategic investors, they can help obtain customers, talents, upstream and downstream resources, but the money invested in the war comes with "constraints", and you are just a chess piece in the chessboard.

Take the money of financial investors, financial investors, who are not interested in controlling the company, just want to get huge financial returns, but they are also relatively short-sighted.

Guan Huang: "For us now, getting the money is the best result. ”

Huang Zhao thought to himself, for the superman in front of him, it would be good to be rich.

How can there be capital to pick and choose.

Guan Huang: "The arrival of 30 million should be able to help us last until the end of November." ”

Huang Zhaoyou calculated for a moment and nodded, "Yes." ”

Guan Huang: "However, if you want to complete the goal of 200 city stations, 30 million is far from enough. ”

Huang Zhaoyou agreed with this judgment, "At least 50 million more funds." ”

Scale expansion, tissue fission, it sounds beautiful, it's all backed up by money.

Superman has traveled all the way, moving at great speed.

Starting from Haicheng to opening stations in five cities,

10 city expansion,

Fifteen cities radical,

Twenty cities swelled,

and even thirty cities today.

In terms of quantity and scale, it has surpassed the industry boss and starved the company, riding the dust and rushing forward.

It's all about throwing money.

Without money, the existing speed will immediately stagnate, and in a more serious case, it will even cause a chain reaction.

For startups, it's all about energy.

If the strength is exhausted, the company will collapse.

Guan Huang thought about it, with the popularity of the mask, 50 million funds could barely be raised.

Of course, there is a need for financial leverage.

"I'll solve the money thing, it shouldn't be a big problem."

Huang Zhaoyou looked at the boss's confident expression, so he didn't think much about it.

Benchmark the hungry company, the current superman, even if Guan Huang does not invest himself, he can find venture capital.

Of course, the conditions will be much worse.

After all, in the early days of entrepreneurship, in the face of venture capital, most companies were in a weak position and could not afford to stand upright.

Why do many people say that it doesn't matter the nature of the money, take it if you have it, it doesn't matter how much the valuation is, it doesn't matter if the investor is famous or not, and it doesn't matter if the conditions are harsh or not.

Here's the point.

The startup company is in a disadvantaged position at the beginning, and if you want to talk about the conditions, no one will take care of you, and survival is the most important thing.

If you want to turn over and be the master, that's after the C round.
