Chapter 8: Do whatever you want

Lao Zhu failed to chase Dai Wei back.

Although he called again and again, saying that he was still trying to do Dai Wei's work, and then would continue to contact Wanli Travel, the experienced Liu Jianni pointed out sharply:

"They must be hooking up with other investors and using us as spare tires."

Lin Yi said lightly: "He uses us as a spare tire, and it depends on whether we are willing to continue to take his plate." ”

"In this market, whether it is red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple for shared bicycles, even if I vote for a gourd brother, I will not consider the small yellow car again."

Are you afraid that you won't have a place to spend your money?

Liu Jianni was very competent, and immediately found him another player with comparable strength on this track, and there were two people who came.

This time it's orange.

"Mr. Lin, I have been looking up for a long time, I am Hu Weiwei of mobike, and you yourself are younger and more handsome than what you see in the media."

"Wang Xiaofeng, CEO of Mobike."

The pair was obviously much more enthusiastic, and they still shook hands with both hands when they shook hands with Lin Yi.

Lin Yi didn't care about this false name, but it seemed that compared to someone's attitude, the performance of these two should be normal.

"It's good to call me Lin Yi."

"Then we will be disrespectful, Lin Yi doesn't blame me for deliberately using close words, we still seem to be half a fellow countryman."

Hu Weiwei is also a native of Zhijiang, her hometown is Dongyang, and the famous Hengdian Film and Television City is located in this small county-level city.

But she said that half of the countrymen didn't talk about it from here.

"I studied in Lin'an, so it's my second hometown, maybe we used to meet on the street when we didn't know each other."

Hu Weiwei studied at the City College of Zhijiang University, and he may think that he is a big student when he doesn't know how to do it, but it is actually an independent college affiliated to it.

The relationship with it is roughly equivalent to "P big" and "P big blue bird".

This kind of commotion is not so unique, outsiders don't misunderstand and don't say it, it can't be deceived locally, so she didn't deliberately emphasize it.

The two had a friendship, and then another person named Wang Xiaofeng introduced himself: "I also have a relationship with us who travel thousands of miles. ”

"Before coming to Mobike, I used to be the general manager of Uber in the Shanghai area, but I left in 2014, not in time for Kalanick's crazy money fight."

The rivers and lakes are so small.

Lin Yi was also very face-saving: "Then thank you for your mercy." ”

The two sides chatted politely for a while before getting to the point, and Lin Yi asked them to introduce the origin and development of mobike.

The first to speak was Hu Weiwei: "To tell you the truth, I have been a reporter for ten years after graduation, mainly in the direction of automobiles, so I am more familiar with Li Bing of Yiche." ”

"Later, I accidentally proposed the idea of sharing bicycles to him, although he was optimistic but he didn't want to do it himself, and offered me to implement it, just gave an angel investment, and I just chased the duck to the shelves and became a monk halfway."

"Fortunately, the direction of bicycle sharing has been recognized by investors, and we got financing last year."

"As the company grew, I felt that my management experience was limited, and at this time, Xiaofeng joined our team and took on the position of CEO."

When she introduced this, Wang Xiaofeng paid a timely greeting.

Lin Yi roughly understood based on his own experience that the relationship between them was roughly equivalent to the relationship between Chen Weixing and Lu Chuanwei back then.

"Since the beginning of this year, bike sharing has received more attention, in fact, we have done two rounds of financing in a row last month."

"But when we heard the news of Wanli Travel, we rushed over immediately, because no one in the field of travel will ignore your influence, and we are deeply honored to receive this invitation."

"If we can join forces with Wanli Travel, I believe it will be a great boost for both of us."

Hu Weiwei introduced the basic situation, and then handed over the right to speak to Wang Xiaofeng, who was in charge of the company's business part.

Obviously, there are three key roles in the mobike team.

Hu Weiwei is the founder.

Wang Xiaofeng is the CEO, and he is now the top decision-maker and de facto leader at the internal level and business management level.

There is another person who did not show up today, but held the key position of chairman of mobike, that is, Li Bing, the nobleman of Hu Weiwei.

It sounds a bit complicated for a start-up company, and it doesn't seem to be as neat as Dai Wei's words on the side of the little yellow car.

Lin Yi didn't need to dwell on that, he straightforwardly laid out the exact same conditions that he had provided for the little yellow car.

"We can give $100 million."

This sentence made Hu Weiwei and Wang Xiaofeng's eyes light up, but they knew that he would have something to do, so they continued to listen quietly.

"We have two requirements, the first point is that Wanli Travel will send you a financial director, and the use of large amounts of funds needs to be approved."

The two of them glanced at each other, and Wang Xiaofeng replied: "No problem, but you can't interfere with the company's normal business operations, and this must be implemented in the contract." ”

Lin Yi expressed his approval, and then stretched out a second finger.

"Second, we require a director to have a veto power on major matters that should be discussed by the board, and that this right is the only one."

Hu Weiwei replied: "We need to discuss this matter. ”

It seems that they need off-the-counter guidance, which may represent the degree of control that these two people have over the company.

Lin Yi decided to put a little more pressure on them: "I can borrow you a conference room, but you have to give us an answer before you leave today." ”

The two solemnly agreed.

While Hu Weiwei and Wang Xiaofeng were having a small meeting and making a cautious phone call, Lin Yi and Liu Jianni, who were waiting on the other side, were also discussing the team they met today.

"It seems that Li Bing's position in the team is still very important, and he played a key role in the early financing of mobike."

Li Bing debuted very early, but not many people know about his initial entrepreneurial experience, which is not the same as those elders of BAT.

But he is currently working on a project that has become quite famous, and it is the most vocal of the so-called "new car-making forces".

Lin Yi said honestly: "I actually don't care about the division of labor between the three of them, and don't look at me for this and that, I really don't plan to meddle in the shared bicycle thing." ”

Liu Jianni thought to herself, Lin Yi was really not optimistic about this industry.

"So why did you choose this team? If you compare it from the founder's point of view, Dai Wei of the little yellow car looks far above this Hu Weiwei. ”

Lin Yi said seriously: "Hu Weiwei's background is average, and the management of mobike seems to be scattered, which is not something I care about. ”

"Dai Wei's background is very good, and his family background is good, so his temper is so big, he dares to blow up his hair in front of him."

"Jenny, I don't want these things because I want to do something in this industry, just to stop them from doing whatever they want."
