After Zhang Shaowen left, Guan Huang thought a lot.

The other party's conditions are not ungenerous.

The $15 billion valuation is almost overdrawn for the year ahead.

This also shows the importance that AB Capital attaches to Superman.

As for the requirements such as board seats and voting rights, it is also due.

It is impossible to do good deeds with billions of funds.

According to the Company Law, the board of directors of a limited liability company is 3-13 members, and the board of directors of a company limited by shares is 5-19 members.

If an agreement is reached, AB Capital will hold 6.7% of the shares, which is almost the third largest shareholder, and it is not an exaggeration to ask for a seat.

Of course, it is impossible to negotiate such a thing as investment all at once, especially when such a large amount of money is involved.

Guan Huang did not agree on the spot, and there were many considerations.

The higher the company's valuation, the better.

Be just right.

The lower the valuation, the more shares you have to pay for the same investment, the greater the risk to the entrepreneur, and in serious cases, you may lose control.

Founders who have been kicked out of startups by capital abound.

However, this is not to say that the higher the valuation, the better.

The valuation of the company can go up or down.

The valuation of $15 billion will never come down, and once the company's development is frustrated, the road to financing will be blocked.

If you can't find new funds, in the ever-changing market competition, the end can be imagined.

It is impossible to eat a big fat man in one bite, and the financing needs to be financed round by round, get a sum of money, push the plan forward to a milestone, and then finance a sum of money to achieve the next milestone.

Guan Huang repeatedly weighed in his heart, with a valuation of 15 billion US dollars, can Superman hold up?

If the situation is uncertain next year and the companies continue to entangle, there is a good chance that Superman will not achieve the desired goal.

In the original time and space, although Meituan beat Ele.me to become the No. 1 in the market, Ele.me did not fall.

Didi merged with Kuaidi, but Uber China came in, and it was another vicious battle.

If you want to completely monopolize the market, you have to work hard.

However, it doesn't matter whether you can negotiate or not, let the news out first, on the one hand, to stimulate the morale of the company, on the other hand, to stimulate venture capital, you are not a monolith, there are always people with discernment.

Guan Huang's abacus played very well.

However, before I could expect feedback, I received a call from Zhang Bo first.

"Mr. Guan, I heard that AB Capital is interested in investing in us?"

Guan Huang didn't hide it, "I met a few days ago, and I haven't negotiated yet, but at present, the conditions it gives are the best." ”

Zhang Bo "um" for a moment.

Guan Huang suddenly realized that something was wrong, Zhang Bo never paid attention to financing, and now when he mentions this, I'm afraid it means something, "What's wrong, if you have something to say, don't talk about it, you have an opinion on AB?" ”

When Zhang Bo heard this, he let go, "It's not me, it's Ah King?" ”

Guan Huang was puzzled: "He, what is his opinion?" ”

Zhang Bo explained, "Boss, do you remember what I told you before, Ah King was kicked out of the startup by capital. ”

Guan Huang thought to himself, "It can't be such a coincidence", and said in his mouth, "Is it AB Capital?" ”

Zhang Bo sighed, "It's Zhang Shaowen of AB Capital." ”

Guan Huang had a toothache.

Zhang Bo continued, "I don't know if Ah King will mind this kind of thing, but, boss, you'd better talk to him openly and honestly, the company is in trouble now, I hope he can understand." ”

Guan Huang was silent.

As a genius technician, Ah King is arrogant and sensitive and conceited.

Being kicked out of his company has always been regarded as a great disgrace.

According to the news learned by Guan Huang, the two sides had a showdown at the executive meeting.

To King's surprise, the vast majority of executives, advisors and board members did not support him.

Ah King himself had a hard time accepting this, so he rushed out of the conference room and cried on the way.

Soon, Ah Wang officially resigned and sold all his shares.

Now let him bow his head and choose to cooperate with AB Capital again, which is no less than inserting another knife in the scar.

If you are detached, you will no longer be able to keep the heart of this genius hacker.

The worst is to turn his face on the spot and resign and not do anything.

has both ability and understanding of human feelings, there are not many such people in the world.

The reason why many people think that geniuses are weird guys is because they are really different from ordinary people.

"Does Ah King know about this, and what is his reaction?"

Zhang Bo replied, "I shouldn't know, since I started the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" project, we have been eating and living in the experimental building, and we haven't met once a month. ”

Guan Huang groaned, "Okay, I see." ”

Zhang Bo was a little relieved, "Communicate more, Ah King should understand." ”

He was neither willing to see Ah King leave his job, nor would he sit idly by and watch the company fall into financing difficulties.

Guan Huang: "Don't worry, I'll take care of it." ”

"Uh-huh, if there's anything I need to come forward, you just say."

Guan Huang: "I'll think about it." ”

After hanging up the phone, before he could breathe a sigh of relief, Xia Qixi knocked on the door and came in excitedly, "Honey, the problem is solved?" ”

Guan Huang didn't answer positively, and said with a smile, "You have worked hard this time, I want to reward you well." ”

Xia Qixi was very happy, "Hehe, I didn't do anything, the company is running well, this is called peach and plum, and it is a miracle." ”

Guan Huang asked her to sit beside her, "The news spread quite quickly. ”

Xia Qixi said proudly, "On the way here just now, I received calls from several people in the province, wanting to ask if I can still talk about this group of wall grass." ”

Guan Huang looked at the excited woman and smiled dumbly.

It seems that there is a lot of pressure and anger during this time.

"Doing business, it's not a battle of will, it's still okay to talk."

Xia Qixi was about to speak, when the phone rang, he took it out and looked at it, pouting, "It's Liu Litao." ”

Guan Huang: "Look at what he said?" ”

Xia Qixi connected, "Hey, Mr. Liu." ”

Liu Litao smiled before he could say anything, "Qiqi." Just call me Lao Liu......"

Guan Huang listened to the two of them talking.

Xia Qixi sneered, secretly accusing the other party of seeing the wind and steering the rudder, he was still high up before, thinking that he had the chance to win, but now he still knows how to ask someone to do something, and he blushes or not.

Who knows, Liu Litao actually has the courage to spit on his own face.

She is strong, she is strong, and the bright moon shines on the river.

Not only is the posture very low, a high hat in one mouthful, and even Father Xia took it out as a friendship.

When you encounter this kind of cheekiness, you spit on him, and he also said that your saliva is fragrant, and there is really no good way.

Xia Qixi was quickly defeated, and he no longer held on to his previous mistakes.

However, she did not let go of the follow-up investment and played a tai chi.

Hanging up the phone, Xia Qixi began to express his skills, "Honey, how am I doing?" ”

β€œperfect。”

"Hee-hee."

Guan Huang thought for a while and instructed, "If there are such people in the future, don't talk too much nonsense with them, AB shares, sign if you are willing, and get out if you are not willing to sign." ”

"Okay."
