The leisurely life of rebirth

Chapter 56 Everyone is happy
"Mr. Zhou, I started the company in 2006. It has been 5 years now. From scratch, it is not easy for us to get to where we are today step by step. Some companies have contacted us, but to be honest, we have not achieved anything. Consistent, some conditions are indeed more stringent.”

Having said this, Wang Tao looked at Zhou You seriously
"The decision-making power must be mine."

When Zhou You saw Wang Tao's serious look, he wanted to laugh in his heart. You asked me to take care of it, but I still don't care. I don't worry about that.

"It's like this, Mr. Wang, I'm not that kind of professional investor. I mainly focus on film and television and documentaries, and I have no interest in company operations."

Hearing this, Wang Tao breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank you, Mr. Zhou, for your understanding. After all, this company is like my child. I raised him single-handedly. I don't want to end up with someone else's surname," Wang Tao joked.

"Just tell me the amount, and I'll see if it's appropriate." At this point, Zhou You also straightened his posture.

"Based on our company's turnover and future development prospects, our company's initial valuation is 5 million." At this point, Wang Tao blushed slightly. After all, it is a bit ridiculous for a company that is about to close down to say that its market value is 000 million.

Zhou You couldn't help but laugh, thinking that if I hadn't known that your future market value would be over [-] billion, I would have thought you were bragging when I heard what you said.

However, no matter how much we discuss business, after traveling around, we can't just quote him any price.

So he stopped talking and stared at them thinking about things.

There was a long silence, when the atmosphere became increasingly awkward.

Zhou You said, "How much are you planning to raise this time?"

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the entire office became lively again. Just when everyone thought the talk was about to collapse, things took a turn for the worse.

"We currently plan to raise 500 million yuan initially, which should be able to alleviate our current difficulties. However, if you want to invest more, we will definitely welcome you." Wang Tao laughed there.
Zhou You also laughed

"Okay, I'll invest 1 million."

Wang Tao was so excited that he almost stood up. Others in the office also looked in disbelief. This is equivalent to if you develop a game and the company is about to go bankrupt. Suddenly someone comes over and says, I will give you 1 million. continue doing.

"But I have a premise. I don't know, you might accept it," Zhou You said immediately.

"You said, we will try our best to cooperate if we can."

"This 1 million is divided into two parts, one part is 000 million, accounting for 500% of the shares. There are no restrictions. You can do it according to your needs. Even if the later financing is diluted, follow this process." Zhou You took a sip of water
"But for the remaining 500 million, I hope to hold 10% of the shares, and these shares will not be diluted by normal financing, and enjoy the same conditions and treatment as Mr. Wang." Zhou You does not know the investment policy, but as long as it follows Wang Tao's standards If you come, you won't suffer too much.

After hearing this, everyone in the office calmed down.

After all, shares that can be diluted and shares that are not normally diluted are two completely different concepts.

If they raise hundreds of millions or billions later, regardless of market value, then Zhou You will always enjoy the same treatment as Wang Tao.

Seeing their silence, Zhou You said, "Well, this condition is indeed a bit harsh. Well, you can go out and discuss it for a while and give me an answer later."

"Mr. Zhou, this condition is indeed a bit sudden. Let's go out to discuss it and give you an answer later." After Wang Tao finished speaking, several founders went out.

Several of them came to the small office to discuss together.
"I don't think the problem is big. After all, it's hard to say whether our company will be able to do it in the future. We have to overcome the current difficulties first," said the vice president.
"To be honest, I didn't even expect that he could invest 1 million. After all, to be honest, I didn't know what to do." This is what the technical director said.
"Then we will deduct a total of 20% of the shares from everyone's shares in proportion. Since everyone has no objections, then we will go back and continue talking with him." Wang Tao made the final decision. Zhou You sat in the conference room, also very nervous. After all, He is not a professional investor and has never invested. He only knows the general situation of investment. It is unknown whether they will accept this.

However, he really couldn't think of a better way. Otherwise, if billions of dollars were raised in the later stage, he wouldn't have enough money to participate. He might as well give it a try in the initial stage.

If it works, it's fine. If it doesn't, he won't lose.

At worst, he will just cash out and leave in the later stage.

After sitting for a while, a few of them came in again. Seeing that they looked more relaxed, Zhou You knew that the matter was stable.

Sure enough, Wang Tao said with a smile on his face

"We agree with Mr. Zhou's opinion, but we also hope that Mr. Zhou will fulfill his promise and not interfere with operations and technology."

Zhou You laughed happily
"Don't worry about this. I have invested in so many projects and never intervened, and I can also integrate resource projects. If you can make a technological breakthrough in the near future, I can cooperate with CCTV and let them use your latest technology in the documentaries they shoot. technology and equipment, which is equivalent to advertising in disguise.”

"Also, I have invested in a few movies. I can also insert some of your equipment into the movie screens to gain better visibility."

Now they are even happier. These days, the wine market is also afraid of being in a dark alley, and many products with good technology and high level are not interested in it.

Those who make products must not only be able to make them, but also be good at promoting them. However, they are all technical geeks. They don’t know these things and have no connections.

At this time, Zhou You realized that he really needed to set up an investment company. At least he had someone to go through the procedures for him, so that he would not be blinded. It would not be good if he encountered any legal issues or tax evasion. .

I’m not sure about this aspect, but this time I definitely have to decide on the investment first.

The two parties have initially drawn up an investment agreement. Zhou You has invested so much and is relatively familiar with it. He sees that the key points are written in the agreement.

Zhou You paid 500 million on the same day. For the remaining 500 million, Zhou You needed legal counsel to further verify whether there were any loopholes in the document and see if the agreement needed to be supplemented first.

Let’s wait until everything is completely omitted. After all, the return is indeed relatively large.

Preliminary estimates include at least 20 billion in revenue, which does not include annual dividends and revenue growth in the future.

After signing the agreement, the funds arrive. This efficiency also creates history in the investment market.

It also shocked Wang Tao and others.

They were also shocked especially when they heard that Zhouyou had invested in several more documentaries and would continue to invest in documentaries in the future.

Zhou You was relieved. The most critical layout had been completed, and the rest was basically harvest time.

Originally, I had to take a flight back on the day of the tour because Shenzhen was really boring and there was not much to see.

However, Wang Tao and others disagreed. It is rare to meet such a free and easy investor. If we don't build a good relationship quickly, what if we need investment again in the future?
