Chapter 137: Preparations for War

After finishing this "single dollar" public welfare activity, the casual takeaway network is also full of harvest, and the next imminent thing is naturally the battle with the hungry.

"Are you going to be tough with Hungry this time?" Li Jianguo's tone could not hide his excitement.

Lin Yi had always been very restrained about Hungryme before, and he was unwilling to have any head-on conflict with Zhang Xuhao, but this time Hungryme was treacherous and engaged in the secret Chen Cang during the cooperation between the two sides, so it can be said that there is no room for retreat.

Another reason is that according to the development plan listed by Lin Yi and them before, among the big cities with the largest concentration of universities and college students in the country, only Shencheng has not been won.

Lin Yi's previous restraint was to preserve his strength and grasp the main contradiction, but he was not afraid of the menacing Zhang Xuhao.

"How much money do we have now?"

The amount of ammunition is important, and he can be sure that the battle of Shencheng will not be peaceful.

"The company itself has no savings, and there is still a small half of the $1 million that Liu Jianni took from her."

Don't look at the fact that one million orders have been generated in the past month, theoretically there is a profit of one million, but profit and cash flow are not the same thing.

As a result of their expanding relationships during this period, their cash has actually been decreasing.

As for their own profitability, it sounds like they are very profitable, but a month ago they were far from that large, and they have just donated the last month.

It didn't sound like a good time, but Lin Yi knew that there would never be a perfect time waiting for him when all the conditions were in place.

"But it's not much better if you're hungry, they got $3 million in January, two months before we did. In March, he spent money to fight with us in the capital, and at the same time entered the three cities of Gusu, Bingcheng, and Rongcheng."

"Later, they followed our footsteps and entered the five cities of Jiangcheng, Rongcheng, Yuzhou, Shangdu and Chang'an on a small scale, and during this period, they also held a charity activity with us and donated 3 million."

"In terms of fixed costs, their expenses are much larger than ours, because we are still rubbing the college's servers, and the labor costs are all student prices, which has almost made the ultimate in saving money."

"As for how many bullets they have, we'll have to try to find out."

When he said this, he decided to enter Shencheng, Li Moyan was not as happy as Li Jianguo, she calmly asked, "Shall we make more preparations?"

Lin Yi, what can they do to prepare?

The next morning, Lin Yi came to the gold master's father again, no, it should be the office of the gold owner's mother Liu Jianni, this time it was not the coffee that the female secretary made for him, Liu Jianni mixed a cup of hand-poured coffee in front of him and put it in front of him.

"It's good coffee this time, too."

There is no need to lie about this kind of thing as Liu Jianni, since she said that it is a good coffee Lin Yi believes it, but this time he told the truth:

"Actually, I can't drink it at all, and I even think that the cup of instant coffee is better when I first came, because it's more bitter."

Liu Jianni didn't laugh at him for burning the piano and cooking the crane, she knew that this was a sign that the relationship between the two had become closer. ….

"Boss Lin has been making a lot of noise recently, so he should go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, I don't know if I have anything to serve you?"

It's always very pleasant to talk to smart people, and Lin Yi didn't care about the ridicule in her words, because she should still be the most inconspicuous in Liu Jianni's investment target.

So he didn't say nonsense: "I need money."

Jianni Liu sat back in the office chair, leaned back on the back of the chair, crossed her hands with a very serious expression, this is how she talked about business.

"I remember that the $1 million I gave before was not spent yet, and now it's just over two months until March? Your ability to spend money is one of the best I've seen among entrepreneurs."

Lin Yi said not very modestly: "Mr. Liu may still underestimate me, just because this little money is not enough for me to spend, so

I'm coming for you again."

"What about the use?"

Lin Yi didn't hide it, now he is not as wary of Liu Jianni as he was at the beginning, and at present, the two of them can be said to be grasshoppers in the same boat.

"We plan to enter Shencheng in the near future, although it has not happened yet, but a big battle can be expected, and we must prepare early."

Liu Jianni pondered for a moment: "I remember that before I gave you that $1 million, you once said that you could go separately to grab the money, why do you have to fight with Hungry for a while, and now you have changed your mind?"

Lin Yi raised two fingers: "First, my attitude has not changed, but you know very well how important this place is in Shencheng, this is a battleground, and if I don't go, it means that I am afraid of him."

"Second, I have already said before that during the cooperation between the two sides of our public welfare activities, they also secretly laid out the city we occupied, which shows that Eleme has no sincerity for peace at all, even if I don't do it, Zhang Xuhao will soon come to the door."

"So, now it's time to send it."

In terms of necessity, Liu Jianni did not question his judgment anymore, and recognized this premise, but still put forward her own opinions.

"From a venture capital perspective, your last round of funding is just over two months past and you're looking for the next round, which is a bad impression for investors."

"Because usually there are only two explanations for this situation, one is that you did not raise enough in the last round of financing, which means that there is a problem with your business planning ability or industry prospect judgment; The second is that you are spending money indiscriminately, which means that you have cheated investors."

"According to your current profitability, you can get at least 1 million yuan by waiting for an extra month. To say something to praise you, I was taken aback when other friends came to ask me, and I even asked for your accounts to be seen before I dared to reply to them."

"So my suggestion is, can we postpone the financing plan until at least the second half of the year?"

Lin Yi spread his hands directly: "I remember that I asked for $3 million before, but I only got a third of it."

What he meant was that the last round of financing was indeed not enough, but he was very clear about the situation at the time, and he was not complaining about Liu Jianni.

"Mr. Liu, no one understands the importance of time better than you venture capitalists, even if I can wait, can Zhang Xuhao let me wait?"

Liu Jianni used to staring at the other party's eyes when negotiating, this was to observe his true attitude, and now her judgment was that Lin Yi had made up her mind.

In this case, she no longer persuaded her, but put herself in a correct position and began to talk about this matter:

"First of all, I want to tell you that the exit method of this investment you provided before does not include fighting with Hungry to the death."

"Of course, the situation of entrepreneurship is changing rapidly, and considering that you and your team have performed very well in the past two months, I respect your decision-making power on the direction of the business direction of Casual Takeaway."

"But generally speaking, the same venture capital firm will not lead the same startup company over and over again, partly to diversify the risk, and on the other hand, to attract friends by attracting investment."

"So what I mean is that in your next round of financing, I will no longer play the role of lead investor, at most I will just make sure that the equity is not diluted and do a little co-investment."

"Of course, for the sake of my 1 million, I will try my best to help you facilitate this round of financing."
