The leisurely life of rebirth

The other two investors didn't care when they saw Ye Shengde talking and laughing with the original shareholders.

Especially the red shirts and the others are also very wealthy.

Basically, they will not be rejected.

Investors are begging them, but they are begging investors.

Long-term success creates arrogance.

Gao Yuan, Sequoia’s representative for this investment. He is not very optimistic about the drone project.

There is no successful precedent abroad.

There are also different concepts and different schools in China.

Especially since the amount of investment this time is not large and it has to be divided among three companies, it is indeed a bit unhappy.

However, this early stage was not arranged by himself. If something happened temporarily, he would send him over by himself to go through the motions.

"Okay, everyone is here, Mr. Wang, let's get started." Gao Yuan said somewhat unhappily.

There are many more. Entrepreneurs want to see themselves, so there is no time to waste here.

Zhou You nodded: "Yes, start early and finish early."

Seeing that everyone is here, several investors have similar opinions.

Wang Tao smiled with a smile on his face: "Okay, let's start."

"First of all, I welcome all investors to DJI. Since its establishment, it has received your attention and recognition."

"I will report again to all investors the basic situation and development speed of our company."

"..."

Some of the investors sitting here listened very carefully, such as Zhou You and Ye Shengde.

Zhou You was not clear on many details, so he took this opportunity to listen.

Where is Ye Shengde? This is because Zhou You has come here and still takes it so seriously, so I must take it even more seriously.

After all, ever since we started dealing with each other, my traveling vision has really been verified by time.

If you were still hesitant before coming, then after seeing Zhou You, you will definitely get it this time.

On the other hand, Gao Yuan was a little careless, still playing with his phone and replying to messages.

There are too many small companies, how many can grow?

Most of them are short-lived and disappear.

Even though Sequoia has invested in so many companies and has so many successes, there are also more failures. If it fails, it will not be worth remembering.

Just when Wang Tao was speaking impassionedly, Gao Yuan interrupted him: "Mr. Wang, let's get straight to the point. These things are included in the preliminary research materials."

Zhou You glanced at Gao Yuan and said nothing.

He looked at Wang Tao again.

I found that Wang Tao was already a little unhappy.

How many people who are willing to start a business are not confident and ambitious in themselves?

Was this one of the motivations behind Wang Tao's investment auction later?

It seems that during this period of investment, I was bullied by investors a lot.

But now we are under the roof and have to bow our heads.

Although Wang Tao was not happy, he still said with a smile: "Okay, then I won't waste the precious time of all investors."

"This time it is expected to raise US$3 million, with a subscription share of 000%."

As soon as he finished speaking, Gao Yuan raised another objection.

"Your valuation is too high. Based on your stubbornness, it's 4 million US dollars. Mr. Wang, do you think it's worth it?"

Ye Shengde felt a little strange. Generally speaking, at this step, there will basically be no big problems because there have been many previous communications.

Why do you feel that the smell of gunpowder is a bit strong this time?

"Mr. Gao, maybe you weren't the one who contacted me in the early stage. This is also the valuation given by your investment after many iterations."

"I also think this valuation is unreasonable because it is too low."

Wang Tao was a little tougher this time.

What does it mean to raise objections over and over again?

Gao Yuan was also very tough: "I came here temporarily on behalf of my colleagues today, but I also read the preliminary information."

"To be honest, there are several companies of the same type across the country, but their valuations are always far lower than yours."

"I think this is why your company is willing to invest in me. Currently, in the field of drones, I believe we are still at the forefront." Wang Tao refused to give in. This was his bottom line.

"Do the other investors have different opinions?" Zhou You, as a shareholder, naturally has to protect his own rights and interests.

Ye Shengde shook his head: "I think this valuation is very reasonable, even a little low. We Penguins have no objection. The only opinion is, can we invest more?"

Just kidding, don't blame others for your blindness.

You are worth billions when you travel around, why are you a wage earner?

He didn't recognize his status clearly and acted as if he thought he was Sequoia Capital.

They are just workers under the company.

Zhou You smiled at Ye Shengde: "Mr. Ye, this is what I want to say. It's only 3 million US dollars, about 000 million yuan, why do you need financing? I can just invest!"

After saying this, the conference room fell silent.

2 million in cash is invested as soon as possible. Where does this come from?

Gao Yuan was a little silent. He had done well in a year, and his annual salary was one million, which was already more than most people.

It will take 2 years to save 20 million in cash without food or drink.

Wang Tao was very happy to see Zhou You being so supportive. This would require the original investors to be tough.

Then he introduced to those present: "Mr. Zhou is an angel investor in our company. He invested 1 million two years ago and has helped us many times during our development process."

"I have invested in many companies and have achieved good results so far. I have also invested in a number of hit movies in the entertainment industry and have made a lot of profits."

"This financing week is always opposed because the amount is too small and he can invest it all himself."

Zhou You smiled at Gao Yuan: "Brother Ye, we have dealt with each other before. He knows my way of doing things. If he likes it, he will invest. What we are seeking is dozens or hundreds of times of profits. Because this little money can only make a profit." Contradictions only show that our structure is too low."

Gao Yuan's face turned a little red, and he didn't know how to refute for a while.

Judging from Penguin Lao Ye's attitude, he is also very polite to Zhou You.

I feel a little unsure, not knowing what the trump card is this month. After all, Penguin is also a giant in China.

In the capital market, money talks. If you have money, you are the boss. If others have more money than you, you are still the boss. You are just a wage earner and don’t have much decision-making power.

He said in a low voice: "I came here temporarily, and many situations are not very clear. Let's do this. I will report to the headquarters now."

His attitude suddenly became much more polite.

Wang Tao nodded: "Mr. Gao, please hurry up. Mr. Zhou is only free today. He has to invest in another company soon and his time is limited."

Who doesn’t know how to pull the banner and pull the tiger’s skin?

Zhou You glanced at everyone present and continued: "Lao Wang, I'm not joking with you. As long as you are short of money, tell me, hundreds of millions in cash is still no problem."

In one sentence, Wang Tao was moved so much.

I wish I wasn’t a girl!

Ye Shengde was a little anxious.

"Mr. Wang, we have agreed that we Penguins can also provide a lot of resources."

I missed it last time, and I missed it again this time. It’s really hard to do business when I go back.

As he said that, he handed Zhou Yougong his hands: "Mr. Zhou, please do me a favor. We will have many opportunities to cooperate in the future." Looking at this situation, Wang Tao didn't understand.

No wonder Zhou You can make it big. This kind of confidence is not something ordinary people have.

This time, if Zhou You hadn't come, he might have been tricked.

Damn vampires.

Zhou Youkan is in another investment company and has been sitting quietly and watching the storm. I don’t know what he is thinking. Are you planning to take advantage?

"Mr. Huang, what does your company say? Has there been any change?" Zhou You asked.

Mr. Huang looked very mature and dressed very maturely. He wore a beaded necklace and had been playing with one hand while they were arguing.

"I don't have any objections. I'll vote if I think it's worth it. I don't care if it's tens of millions."

Two of the three companies have already approved their plan, so it doesn't matter if only one is left.

While several people were chatting.

The conference room door creaked.

Gao Yuan's demeanor returned to normal. After communicating with the headquarters, the headquarters believed that it could be postponed. The ratio was indeed a bit high and further investigation was needed.

With the support of the headquarters, there is no need to look at their faces.

"Mr. Wang, I'm really sorry. I'm afraid we won't be able to confirm the investment share today. Our headquarters needs further investigation." Gao Yuan said this with high spirits.

You are awesome, I just don’t vote.

When I was communicating with the headquarters just now, my bias was still very obvious, and the implication behind my words was that they were unreliable.

Wang Tao is also very calm.

If you don’t vote, don’t vote.

The worst case scenario is to give up some of the shares to Zhou You.

This time I gave it willingly. Who can let others do things in a grand manner?

"Okay, Mr. Gao, let's work together if we have the opportunity in the future. This time the share has been determined." Wang Tao said neither humble nor overbearing.

Hear this.

Ye Shengde was overjoyed: "Mr. Wang, I can make additional investment!"

Mr. Huang said with a smile, his meaning was very clear, I will still follow the original proportion, and I don’t care about the rest.

Wang Tao shook his head: "Thank you, Mr. Ye, for your trust, but we, Mr. Zhou, have priority investment rights. This is what we discussed at the beginning."

"Thanks to Mr. Zhou's timely investment, we were able to succeed in research and development and step by step to where we are today. Unexpectedly, Mr. Zhou still supports us as always."

"Reciprocate the favor, and we also hope that Mr. Zhou can continue to help us in the future."

Zhou You laughed loudly, pointed at Wang Tao and said, "Mr. Wang's words are really beautiful. You should give me face by asking me to invest."

"But it doesn't matter, who makes me like it."

"Next year I will give you a big gift, which will save you millions in publicity expenses."

Wang Tao was very excited when he heard this. Their product has become popular in the drone circle, but it has not broken out yet.

To break through the circle, you need timing, not just throwing money at it.

This invitation to Zhou Youlai also hopes to use his status in the entertainment industry to further promote their drones.

"I don't know if Mr. Zhou is talking about Wang Banbi and Zhang De's wedding next year."

Nowadays, everyone likes to eat melon in the entertainment industry. Every time they eat melon, it is for the whole people. It is perfect for publicity.

Zhou You nodded and said cautiously: "This is just one of them. I have planned many movies, TV series, and variety shows next year. By then, you can all show the use of drones in them."

Wang Tao couldn't help but walked up to Zhou You: "Mr. Zhou, what you said is serious. We can no longer be the petty quarrels we used to have. I will create a special team to coordinate with these programs to ensure success."

"Okay, no problem." Next year will be a harvest year and one of the beginnings of the big curtain.

The scene Gao Yuan imagined did not appear. In his understanding, as long as Sequoia didn't vote this time, no one else would either.

After all these years, I never expected to meet Leng Tou Qing again.

Don't give any face to Sequoia.

The remaining people are now directly ignoring themselves, and investors are directly rejecting their investment.

However, I and the headquarters came up with a temporary delay and never said that I would not vote.

Now I am neither advancing nor retreating.

After sitting there for a few minutes, I realized that no one was really paying attention to me, so I could only stand up angrily, without even saying hello, and pushed the chair back with a squeaking sound.

After walking out of the door, he fell hard.

Zhou You was shocked.

"Has Sequoia become so arrogant now?" A young wage earner can actually show off his expression casually.

Ye Shengde was not surprised: "Yes, with seniority and wealth, he naturally has great capital."

Mr. Huang still smiled and said nothing. I am here to make money. As long as I can make money, nothing else matters.

Wang Tao shrugged, feeling helpless.

"Okay, I'll give you Sequoia's share, and the rest will go through the process directly." Zhou You didn't want to waste any more time.

Anyway, you are making money, and you can also deepen your relationship.

Later, DJI's business spread all over the world, and even involved small-scale military battles.

The strength is evident.

The most important thing is that you can establish a line with the military in various places. If something happens in the future, the priority of rescue will be higher than others.

Money really isn't the most important thing.

The connections, channels, and other invisible benefits behind it are the most important thing.

Wang Tao is also very happy. The share ratio is reduced and the funds are increased. Why not do it.

It doesn’t matter who you take money from, you will spend it on yourself in the end anyway.

Originally, I was afraid that having too many shares in Zhouyou would affect my decision-making, but I found out that I was overthinking it, and that others really didn't care and didn't want to worry about it.

There is no comparison, I just worry about my life.

In the end, each company invested 10 million U.S. dollars, and Zhouyou got a little more, because Wang Tao also took into account the subsequent resources provided.

In this way, after calculation, Zhouyou's shareholding ratio has reached 20%.

Zhou You couldn't help but laugh: "Mr. Wang, I found out that I worked for you for two years. I paid tens of millions more, but the result was still 20%."

Wang Tao also didn't expect such a situation to arise, and scratched his head, feeling slightly embarrassed.

"Well, the market value is different. Mr. Zhou still makes money. He still makes money."

"Haha, I'm not kidding you anymore. I'll give you a contact number. You can contact her with the team and I'll say hello. It's a win-win situation, why not do it." Zhou You regarded Yang Mi as a tool again. .

However, thinking about it, Yang Mi should be happier.

Originally he was just a small star in the entertainment industry, but now he has gradually contacted a big company in the future. What's wrong with him?

Not to mention, Yang Mi has already tasted the benefits.

Today's headlines really can't recruit any dirt on her.

When Douyin becomes popular in the future, Yang Mi can also pretend to be a little boss. (End of chapter)
