Chapter 223: Cheng Mo saved trouble
Of course, Cheng Yu and Guanlu will not be in a hurry, the other party's psychological price is high, so let's talk slowly, if it is really as they said, investors are lining up to give them money, they probably will not consider Great Expectations, a small company that has just been established for a long time.
The conditions for this project are indeed good in all aspects, but the entrepreneurial team's overconfidence in their own project should make them negotiate with many investment companies to break down.
At that stage, their own funds were relatively sufficient, and there were only three people in the main creators of this team, all of whom came down from the positions of executives of other companies and brought their own funds. So they've been in no hurry.
But now, their funds are obviously not so abundant, and they must have offended many people due to their high posture before, so Cheng Yu ushered in this opportunity.
The three of them did not show any impatience in the face of Cheng Yu and Guanlu, but their posture was not high.
Cheng Yu and Guan Lu privately talked about that it is normal for this team to be more mature in all aspects because it is a senior executive's resignation and entrepreneurship with its own funds, but this will also make them think highly of themselves, and their attitude towards investors will be a bit like Jiang Taigong's fishing.
Investors basically don't like this kind of entrepreneurial team with too high attitude, unless, their project is really similar to the kind of must-die, but the problem is that even if it has to die, it has faced the embarrassing situation of not being able to raise capital back then.
Basically, entrepreneurial companies with a relatively high profile will only be popular after the B round, when the entire project has shown an irrepressible rapid development, and in that case, no one will mind your posture.
But this kind of company that is still looking for an angel round, or at least a pre-A round, is really not suitable for a high profile.
This is a mistake that this company has made in the first round of financing, and Cheng Yu will certainly not let go of this easily, and he and Guan Lu have a patient and slow talk.
ended this round of meetings relatively successfully, and the other party wanted to stay with Cheng Yu and Guan Lu for lunch, but Cheng Yu directly refused.
"Forget about eating, it will definitely be common in the future, and we will eat together when we enter a more substantive negotiation stage. Today we still have a few projects to meet, the newly established company, there are more projects in the early stage, so I won't bother. ”
In addition to the real reason, Cheng Yu also wants to tell the other party that we are a newly established company after all, with limited funds, but we are not too short of projects. So, weigh your offer for yourself.
This is a simple negotiation technique, which belongs to the tilting of posture.
The other party didn't want to keep much, so he politely sent the three of them to the door and watched them drive away.
The project of the second company is about great expectations, and the three of them rushed to the company non-stop, which is not bad, they almost just arrived at the office, and they only had time to drink a sip of water, and the other party's people have already come to the door.
However, the company where the project is located made Cheng Yu and the pipeline a little dissatisfied, and they only sent a vice president of the technical department to come, clearly showing that they have little confidence in the great future.
The cooperation must be based on the full trust of both parties, and it took only 20 minutes for Cheng Yu to show a lack of interest, and the meeting ended.
At noon, they had a simple meal in the park, and the three of them rested in the company for a while, and ushered in the project meeting object in the afternoon.
When it was close to four o'clock, several projects had been completed, and the three of them had a brief meeting to summarize yesterday's companies and today's projects.
Regarding Cheng Yu's judgment, that is, the previous day's project was basically in the stage before abandonment, there was no doubt about the pipeline, and he also agreed with Cheng Yu's decision to hand over these projects to Tan Wulian to practice.
As for today's project, the two discussed for a long time before finally deciding that the first project in the morning should be the most important object, but they could not rush it, but also handed it over to Tan Wulian for follow-up and sharpened the other party's patience.
Tan Wulian was a little apprehensive about this, after all, Cheng Yu and the pipeline meant that this project was the most important one of the several projects discussed today.
"Mr. Cheng, Mr. Guan, I'm worried that I can't do it. And the other party is relatively strong, and the asking price is also very firm, I'm afraid that if you let me deal with it, they will think that we don't pay enough attention to them......"
Cheng Yu waved his hand, and the pipe explained: "I just want to give them this impression." You can go with confidence, just be modest, and let them understand that we are not in a hurry, and it is they who are in a hurry. As for whether they are valued or not, you don't have to worry about it, if they are really valued by many investment companies as they say, it will not be our turn to talk to them. Learn to negotiate with Buddhism, don't be in a hurry. ”
The pipeline said so, and Tan Wulian could only reluctantly agree.
In the afternoon, I met several companies, and one of them was quite mature, and Cheng Yu and Guanlu planned to find a time to meet Shen Zhiqiu in the evening, because this project already has a model in the United States, and it is still a relatively new project in China. They wanted to see Shen Zhiqiu's opinion.
If Shen Zhiqiu also thinks it's worth following up, then you can give it a try.
Tan Wulian looked at the time, and at half past four, he said, "Two bosses, if there is nothing wrong, I will go back first." ”
"Isn't it a holiday today, why are you in such a hurry to go back?"
"I'm alone in Wudong, so what's the fake, I think I'll leave first if there's nothing to do. ”
"Don't go, you're tired today, and you don't have overtime pay, I'll invite you to dinner in the evening. ”
Tan Wulian didn't say anything, exited Cheng Yu's office, went to his desk, and sorted out the information he got today.
And the pipe said with a smile: "I'll just say that you are in a good state today, don't just say that I have a happy event, you can also tell me, do you also have a happy event?"
Seeing the narrow expression of the pipe, Cheng Yu knew that this kid must have gotten the rumor that Cheng Yu and Du Xiaoyu seemed to have a public relationship last night through some channels.
"I'll hide it from others, but I won't hide it from you, and you know what it's going on from the beginning. I'm really in good shape today, but it's not because of Du Xiaoyu, I still have an agreement relationship with her. I'm happy because someone gave me 22% of the shares of a club......"
Without waiting for the pipeline to ask carefully, Cheng Yu's phone rang, and when he took it out, he saw that it was Cheng Mo.
"It's really said that Cao Cao Cao is here, and the shares are estimated to be done. ”
Cheng Yu answered the phone with a smile: "Cheng Mo, I'm Cheng Yu." ”
"The share transfer agreement is ready for you, when are you free, let's sign it?"
Originally, Cheng Yu thought that as long as Cheng Mo's agreement was ready, he would sign it immediately, after all, it was related to the timing of the completion of the task, of course, the sooner the better.
It's just a small accident last night, which made him know that the task has been completed, and even he has submitted the task, which means that it doesn't matter whether he signs this agreement or not, the important thing is that the other party will never regret it, and the system has recognized the existence of this agreement. Even from a systems perspective, it will definitely ensure that nothing happens to this agreement.
So, Cheng Yu said: "Don't worry, find a time, I met with several companies today, and I still have a lot of information to deal with." Aren't you going to my house for dinner today? Give the agreement to my mother, and I'll get it from her. ”
When Cheng Mo heard this, he was obviously a little excited, he was still discussing with Cheng Ran, how to tell Cheng Guangnian about Cheng Yu's takeover of the club's shares quietly, which would save trouble.
