If it is to write code, although Lin Yi does not dare to say how superb his level is, he can at least get started with two strokes.

He can't help with building cars.

Good management is that professional people do professional things and perform their duties. After sending Shao Yu away, Lin Yi went to do another thing.

Jiaocheng, located in the northeast of Minnan Province, was the second-to-last province in terms of GDP in 2016, and was originally an obscure third-tier city.

In a few years, there will be a company named after the city, which will give it a strong presence in front of the people of the whole country.

At least in front of the stockholders.

Lin Yi felt quite peculiar when he came here, because in China, you rarely see a large company willing to nest in a small city.

Now, of course, it doesn't seem to be that conspicuous.

"Boss Lin, it is said on the Internet that you are the richest man born in the 90s, handsome and dashing, and you really deserve your reputation when you see it today."

"Boss Zeng is making fun of me, just call me Lin Yi."

Lin Yijian's former boss is no longer young, strictly speaking, he is starting a business, but this is not his first career.

He has been deeply involved in the lithium battery industry for many years, mainly made mobile phone batteries, entered the Apple supply chain, and now started a new power battery, and is the leader in China and BYD, which is self-produced and sold.

Power battery is the most important component of electric vehicles, and it also accounts for a large part of the cost of the whole vehicle.

The reason why Lin Yi came to see him was because the industry leader was currently seeking a round of equity financing, which was a rare opportunity.

The two sides got to know each other, and Boss Zeng asked with a smile: "I don't know why Lin Yi made a special trip to our small place this time?" ”

Lin Yi got straight to the point: "Wanli Travel has decided to enter the new energy automobile industry, this matter must have been heard by the boss?" ”

】

The other party nodded and said: "Of course, you Wanli Travel is now the head of the new Big Three, and your every move is eye-catching." Recently, it has been rumored that the poaching skills from the automakers are amazing, and the industry has praised you for your great courage. ”

The efficiency of traveling thousands of miles is very high, and the large-scale digging of people cannot be hidden, and they have no intention of sneaking around, so they simply make a big splash.

So the fact that they want to build a car is now known to passers-by, and Lin Yi also specially appeased some investors who questioned it.

There is everything that is said outside, and it does not affect their step-by-step order.

Lin Yi is still self-aware: "What kind of courage is very strong, I'm afraid it means that I don't know the sky is high when I'm young, right?" ”

Boss Zeng smiled but said nothing.

The boss of the industry has a somewhat complicated mentality towards Lin Yi and them engaging in the Internet like this, envying them for making money easily, but also despising them for having no technical content.

Lin Yi finally said what he meant: "It is precisely because of this that we choose the best partners, especially industry leaders like Boss Zeng." ”

"To tell you the truth, I came today because Wanli Travel is very interested in your company's latest round of financing, and I believe that Boss Zeng has seen my sincerity."

To talk about financing, you don't have to come to them, Lin Yi personally visited them to see his sincerity.

Boss Zeng really felt that Lin Yi was a young layman, and whether he could build a car on a whim or not depends on whether it can be done.

However, Wanli Travel is now in the limelight, and it doesn't seem to be a bad thing to let it join its own shareholders' meeting to at least open up its popularity.

"I wonder how you're going to work together?"

"I know that you intend to seek 8 billion yuan in financing at a valuation of 80 billion yuan this round, and we want half of it."

Of course, Lin Yi came to the door in person, but he had to open his mouth halfway, not only did he have a good breath, but his appetite was quite big.

Boss Zeng was noncommittal for the time being, and asked, "There must be some other conditions, right?" ”

Lin nodded and said: "The reason why we want to form a close alliance with your company through shareholding is that we hope to get your spare help in business." ”

"We want to make sure we get your most advanced technology, the highest priority production capacity guarantee, and the best price when it comes to building cars."

Lin Yi's words are half-true, and he really wants to negotiate some exchange conditions, but even if he can build a car, it is uncertain how much production capacity he can use, which is a boast.

Boss Zeng was not surprised by Lin Yi's appeal, he thought about it a little and gave this reply:

"Lin Yi, first of all, I am grateful for your optimism and support for the company, as a power battery supplier, I am also very happy to see you join the wave of new energy vehicles."

"On behalf of the entire industry, I welcome you."

"I'm afraid I can't fully agree with the plan you just proposed, because the company's financing amount in this round is only 8 billion, which is not high."

"Before you, I have promised a few companions who have already had good cooperation experience before, and even negotiated with them to ask for less in order to introduce more new friends."

"If your family takes half of the 8 billion, then I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to explain it to other old friends and new friends."

Lin Yi had expected this.

The valuation level of the other party's round of financing is actually not low, reaching 80 billion after the investment, you must know that their valuation was only 23 billion a few months ago, even so Lin Yi did not plan to bargain.

Although the other party is not the famous King Ning now, before the shareholders found out that it was killing all sides in A-shares, the capital with a keen sense of smell had already harvested several rounds.

Its shares are highly sought-after.

The friends who have booked shares that Boss Zeng said are not ordinary people, for example, there is a fund under Majack who once promised to sponsor Lin Yi.

If Lin Yi did not come over today on behalf of the "head of the new three", but as a passer-by, then even if he came to the door with billions of cash, he might not be able to get a little precious share.

"Understand, you can tell us how much you can give us, right?"

"Since I saw you today, I was planning to make you Lin Yi, a friend, and it just so happened that you were so refreshing, so I will say it directly."

Boss Zeng stretched out two fingers, "I can find a way to give you a quota of 2 billion, and there is no more." ”

2 billion, only 300 million US dollars, less hatred and less hatred!

Lin Yi knew in his heart that there was only so much this time, but he still had to complain a few words, and Boss Zeng smiled and promised that he would give priority to him in the next financing.

Relying on this verbal promise, Lin Yi increased his holdings twice in a row after that, and when Ningwang IPO, his shares crossed the threshold of 5%.

That's another story.

They then discussed for a while the other conditions that Lin Yi had just proposed, but they were basically intentional, because there was no sign of the car building, and they couldn't place an order for the other party now.

Lin Yi is still satisfied with the harvest of this trip.

Standing at the end of 2016, there are not many opportunities left for Lin Yi to play the role of a "prophet".

With this investment foundation, even if the road of car manufacturing is not smooth, the appreciation of the stock price alone will not be lost.
