104. East Wall West Wall

"You drank last night?" Xia Qing saw that I packed up and was about to drive, so she hurriedly stopped me and asked, seeing that I nodded slightly, so I didn't say a word and took my car keys out, lit a fire and got into the car, I didn't say anything, and sat in the passenger seat without saying a word.

Stirred by the cold water just now, the person was much more awake, but the temples on both sides were still faintly swollen and painful, as if someone had knocked it in with a small hammer.

Seeing that I looked haggard, Xia Qing said while driving: "You hurry up and squint for a while!" Don't wait for a while to talk to Sister Miao, you're so listless! ”

I nodded and closed my eyes. Unknown classical music flowed quietly in the car like water, and my mind was chaotic, thinking about what Xiaobai said to me last night, and everything between us, I fell asleep again.

A shrill horn sounded from outside the car, and I don't know how long it took for me to wake up from my chaotic dream, and when I suddenly sat up, I saw Xia Qing sitting in the driver's seat staring at me intently.

Seeing that I woke up suddenly, looking at each other, Xia Qing's face turned crimson for a while, then turned her head with a cough and said coldly: "Sister Miao just sent a message saying that she was going to be late for a while, will you sleep for a while?" ”

I rubbed my eyes, the back of my head and temples were still a little swollen, but they were much more comfortable than before.

"I'm fine." I straightened up, breathed a sigh of relief, rolled down the window, looked out the window, and said.

"Xiaobai said something to me when he left......" After a long silence, Xia Qing suddenly held her chin and said thoughtfully.

"What did Xiaobai say?"

Without waiting for Xia Qing to answer, the phone rang, it was Sister Miao calling, Xia Qing answered the phone and said, "Let's go, Sister Miao will be here soon." ”

As he spoke, he got out of the car by himself, and when he saw me sitting in the car, he was stunned, so he said, "Don't be in a daze, let's go!" ”

"What did Xiaobai say to you when he left?" I asked again.

"She told you to take care of yourself." After Xia Qing finished speaking, she turned around and left.

I guess this shouldn't be what Xiaobai said to Xia Qing, but does it matter what he said? I picked up my phone and wanted to call Xiaobai, but after a few hesitations, I still didn't press the familiar number.

Perhaps, time is the best antidote!

I silently recited this sentence in my heart, I don't know where I saw it, and followed in the footsteps of Xia Qing.

……

Sister Miao arrived a few minutes late, and when she saw that Xia Qing and I had already ordered something and sat down, she said with some apologies on her face: "I went to the park to pick up Xiao Zhao just now, but I didn't expect to encounter a traffic jam again, sorry, sorry!" ”

She greeted Xia Qing, then nodded and smiled with me, and after Xia Qing sat down in the private room specially set, she immediately motioned Zhao Xiaolong to turn on the computer.

Seeing this, Zhao Xiaolong neatly opened the computer, opened the project ppt, and introduced it to Xia Qing with a little shyness: "First of all, I still want to thank Mr. Gao, this new demo is ......based on some opinions and suggestions put forward after meeting with Mr. Gao two days ago."

I've seen most of this demo last time, so I smiled at Zhao Xiaolong disappretently, and then listened to his introduction.

"The proposed name of our project is 'Ten Thousand Rooms', which is the poem that Du Fu indicated, hoping that users can live in a satisfactory house through our app......

As Zhao Xiaolong spoke, he raised his head from time to time to look at everyone's expressions, and seeing that everyone didn't ask too many questions, he was a little calmer in his heart, and he spoke more fluently.

Twenty minutes later, after Zhao Xiaolong finished speaking, Sister Miao immediately asked Xia Qing, "Tianqing, what do you think of this project?" ”

Xia Qing thought for a while and said with a smile: "Sister Miao, Gao Chao also told me about it before, and there were still some doubts at that time, but I think it is still very clear when I listen to Xiaolong today." In particular, the name of '10 million rooms' is very good, and the project positioning is relatively clear, I feel that this project should be ahead of its opponents in terms of technology, and the key to success or failure should be in operation and maintenance......"

After listening to what Xia Qing said, Sister Miao asked, "By the way, Xiao Gao, have you contacted Mengmeng?" Is there any intention on her side to come over and do it together? ”

"Moe?" Xia Qing turned her head to look at me with some confusion and said, I thought to myself, why did Xia Qing look at me like this? But thinking of what happened with Xiang Mengmeng that night, my heart is still a little unnatural.

"Sister Miao, I talked to Xiang Mengmeng over there, but she still seems to have some concerns because of family matters, I'll call her after chatting later."

Sister Miao said: "In the past two days, I have also consulted a few friends in the industry, and they all feel that the project itself, whether it is creativity or ideas, is OK, but it is the same as Tianqing said." The success of this project depends on two things: the first is operation, and the second is funding. Speaking of funds, I also told Xiao Gao last time, I hope your company can also join in, what do you mean? ”

"Sister Miao, of course we are happy for a small company like ours to follow Sister Miao to do things together. It's just that in terms of funding, we probably don't have a lot of money to mobilize right now. I just heard about the funding plan of Xiaolong's side, and the funds needed to start the project, and we should be able to intervene. But if the later ......"

Sister Miao didn't wait for Xia Qing to finish speaking, and then said: "If the follow-up capital demand is relatively large, we will find a way together at that time, as long as you think this project is still worth investing, sister, I am still looking forward to doing something with you!" ”

"Thank you, Sister Miao, for looking up to me so much!" Xia Qing said with a smile.

"Okay, don't say so many polite words, Xiaolong, you can talk about the financial aspect."

After Sister Miao finished speaking, Zhao Xiaolong opened another PPT, which was about the company's financing, valuation, and arrangements and plans after the funds were in place.

According to Zhao Xiaolong's introduction, the valuation of the project within a year after the launch of the project was 22 million, and Zhao Xiaolong's team held 51% of the shares, and the capital accounted for 49% of the shares.

Although Zhao Xiaolong is a dry stock that does not account for a penny, the shares given to the capital are also non-dilutable shares.

That is to say, if the valuation of the "10 million" project is officially launched, if the valuation increases by 10 times, the money invested by the investor will also increase by 10 times.

And after reading Zhao Xiaolong's introduction on the funding arrangement, in addition to the necessary personnel team, office and server and other necessary expenses, the rest of the funds are planned to be used for promotion, operation and maintenance after the app is launched.

Zhao Xiaolong's monthly salary for himself is actually 8k, which means that it is not even 100,000 a year! You must know that Zhao Xiaolong is a penguin, and a product manager with a level of seniority like him over there will need three or five hundred thousand a year.

"Tianqing, I am very optimistic about this project, so I decided to take the lion's share, 29% on my side, and 20% on you and Xiaogao's side?" Sister Miao asked politely after listening to Zhao Xiaolong.

"Okay." Xia Qing nodded.

"Then it's decided!" Sister Miao smiled and said, "In terms of the agreement, I asked Xiaolong to draw it up, is it okay to contact Xiao Gao directly?" ”

After Xia Qing and I listened, we both nodded, and then touched our glasses with tea instead of wine, and the matter was basically finalized!

I estimated in my heart that the valuation of 22 million, that is to say, we need to invest less than 9 million in the early stage, since this share is a non-dilutable share, I look forward to this project can get a share of the hot property market.

In this way, even if there is a new investor entering, we can cash out at a high premium and leave, just like we invested in Zhao Xiaoya's Sinan Technology.

Even Zhao Xiaoya's Sinan Technology can get a five-fold premium, and if the current "tens of millions" project is operated properly, its potential is much greater than that of Sinan Technology.

Seeing that Xia Qing simply agreed to it, Sister Miao said happily: "I've known Tianqing for ten years, I was still a little girl at that time, and I have grown into a big girl in just a few years, not only is she good-looking, but she is also very similar to your father in business!" It's neat, and it's not muddy at all! It's a pity that Uncle Mingyuan left a little early......"

Hearing Sister Miao talk about her father, Xia Qing's eyes instantly turned red, and tears began to roll in her eyes.

Seeing the sad thing that evoked Xia Qing, Sister Miao seemed a little reluctant not to hurry up and comfort her.

Xia Qing smiled, said sorry, took a tissue from me, wiped the tears rolling down her cheeks, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Sister Miao, I heard that Gao Chao said that there are some not very good rumors about Mingyuan over there?" ”

"I just wanted to tell you about it, I also told Gao Chao about it last time." Sister Miao paused, straightened the hair that slipped on her ears and said, "I thought you knew, it was the last time I talked to Xiao Gao, and I realized that you came out of the group completely." ”

Xia Qing said a little embarrassedly: "Things at home are complicated, so I haven't told too many people, and I've been busy with the new company's affairs recently, so I haven't paid much attention to the things on Mingyuan's side." ”

Sister Miao nodded and said, "I understand, I've probably heard about it, your brother and your little mother have indeed done a little bit." But fortunately, there are mostly discerning people, and you don't have to mind too much, there are some things that should be yours and no one can snatch them. ”

"Sister Miao, I didn't think about it that much, anyway, my father is no longer here, what's the point of fighting for those? It's just ...... "It's sunny in the summer, and I want to stop talking."

"It's just that you still can't put it down, right? Mingyuan Group's surname is Xia, and it is a business founded by your father Xia Mingyuan, you can't watch it be destroyed, right? ”

Xia Qing listened to Sister Miao's words, nodded silently, and then began to gently wipe the corners of her eyes again.

"Actually, the solution is not to say that there is none, but after all, it is still a little tricky when it comes to such a large enterprise. However, during this period of time, it has been rumored in the circle that Mingyuan has begun to sell some of his assets in order to raise money these days. Sister Miao said solemnly.

"There's no way around it." Xia Qing said.

"This may just be a solution to the urgent need, tearing down the east wall to make up the west wall, listening to a few friends of the bank, now the four major state-owned banks in Longcheng and several joint venture banks have been meeting in series." Sister Miao said.

"Are they going to join forces with Mingyuan Group to force debts?" I couldn't help but ask curiously, Mingyuan's matter actually forced the banks to start an alliance, which shows that the matter is already quite serious.

"The thinking between banks is not very unified now, because Mingyuan owes more and less, how much and less, and the collateral is also good and ......bad," Sister Miao said slowly, and then changed her words: "However, several banks are now forcing Mingyuan Group to change the board of directors and management." ”
