The Black Card

() The other side listened to Shi Lei's words, and immediately hesitated. He pondered for a while, trying to understand the whole content of Shi Lei's sentence.

In fact, there is not much content, but Shi Lei wants to dig this company domestically, so that their technology and domestic technology form a whole bucket.

This idea is not because the other party proposed that Shi Lei could invest in the sole proprietorship, but that Shi Lei had already thought about it before coming to them, but the other party asked for it, and it seemed more logical for Shi Lei to make this request again.

This company was founded by four Stanford students who stayed at Stanford for a year as a post-doctoral student after graduating from their doctorate, and the technology was born.

Then he found Angel Cast and left Stanford to start this company.

The four students are all of the type who graduated with a full award and graduated with a PhD degree. Their families are very ordinary. It would be impossible to create this company without the conditions of postdoctoral research given by Stanford. Because of this, they have a unified understanding at the beginning of the business, hoping that the company's equity composition can be simpler.

When they accepted the angel vote, they also took this into consideration. The person who invested in them had an oral promise that he was willing to continue investing in their A round. However, I don't know why. When they needed to make a round A financing, they found the investor, but the other party refused to continue investing. They had to look back into the investment circle.

Coincidentally, Shi Lei happened to know the investor, and Shi Lei believed he was able to persuade the investor to allow the company to change course and leave the United States to settle in Huaxia.

That's why Shi Lei has this problem now.

But after all, this is a question about the future survival of the company. For Shi Lei, what can be talked about is the best, and if it is not done, there will be no loss.

But listening to each other's ears was like thunder.

After pondering for a long time, the CFO said, "Mr. Shi, how can you ... uh, forgive me, this request is a bit strange."

Shi Lei smiled slightly: "I don't want to conceal anything, I am a Huaxia person, and we have always been weak in microprocessors. Your technology is innovative, but for the United States, please forgive me and not count What a special breakthrough. So people who follow you must have it, but it is just a regular investment. I checked that your technology can complement each other's technologies from many companies in China, which will make your technology become More complete, and I believe that the companies over China are very willing to share resources with you. This is a win-win situation. Therefore, I sincerely send you an invitation and hope that you can leave the United States and go to China . And what I can promise is that I will invest in Round B, Round C and Round B. As long as you are willing, I can invest in sole investment ... "

The CFO quickly waved his hand and said, "Mr. Shi, I can understand what you mean. However, although we have not made any personal equity division within the company for the time being, after all, we have also gone through the angel round, so It is almost impossible for angel investors alone to completely transfer this company to Huaxia. Not to mention things like technology output. "

"The investor of the angel round is Mr. Jackman? Frith? I and he are very familiar. If you know more about me, you will find that the house where I live now is what Mr. Frith sold to Mine. If your concern is really only Mr. Frith, then leave it to me to persuade him. "

The CFO lifted his head, he took a deep look at Shi Lei, and he finally realized that Shi Lei's request was not a whimsy, but a plot.

So far, Shi Lei has stated all the conditions that he can give, and also the requirements. However, this requirement is by no means the CFO's independent decision. There are no obstacles to negotiations between the two sides, except for this.

Therefore, he does not feel the need for this negotiation to continue. What he needs to do is go back to negotiate with the three other founders and then make a decision. Do you agree or disagree before you can proceed to the next negotiation.

Therefore, he looked at Shi Lei again, and said, "Mr. Shi, I'm sorry, but today's negotiations may only end there. I personally have no objection to leaving the United States. If you can really convince Mr. Frith, I think you should There are ways to solve the problem of technical output. I understand your request, but I need to discuss it with my partners. "

Shi Lei nodded and said, "Three days, I hope you don't discuss more than three days."

"No, one day, I will contact Mr. Shi within 24 hours. However, at that time, Mr. Shi may be invited to visit our company. This kind of decision is about the future of the company, whether or not it can reach Mr. Shi. Requirements, we must all be four together. "

Shi Lei nodded, and the enthusiast in science and engineering was really popular. The problem that can be solved with one line of code will never drag into three lines.

"Then hope we can reach a consensus."

The two shake hands and say goodbye.

Later, Shi Lei contacted another company. The other party insisted on a valuation of 90 million yuan. Shi Lei believed that he could only give the best valuation of 80 million yuan, so this negotiation can't be too frustrating. Too pleasant.

Of course, neither side said anything, but only said that both sides would consider it again.

Wandering to Jackman's new home.

It's a new home, but it's actually been a year.

When the housekeeper saw that it was Shi Lei, he did not notify Jackman at all, and opened the door directly to him, and then informed Jackman that Shi Lei was here.

Jackman came out to greet him personally, and Da Lao Yuan said, "Mr. Shi, if you don't come to me, I will go to you. Rogers is dead, but our money is still unknown."

Shi Lei smiled and hugged Jackman. He said: "I really can't help it. The situation was far more dangerous than Mr. Frith imagined. I almost couldn't see you alive again."

"For this matter, I was impeached by many people in the consortium. I have lost the position of chairman of the consortium, and in order to quell the anger of shareholders and track down the losses caused by the fall of Rogers, I took 80% of it alone. In one year, I sold the house to you, and I managed to take it easy. Because I paid 80% of the cost, I was poor again. "

Being poor is of course nonsense ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ However, Shi Lei also immediately understood why Jackman had promised to continue to invest in that company's Series A, but now he said nothing.

"It looks like it really has something to do with me. Although I don't know that, but now that I know it, I think I should probably give Mr. Fries some compensation."

"Compensation?" Jackman frowned clearly.

It's all a thousand-year-old fox demon. Don't tell anyone about Liao Zhai. Of course, Jackman knows that Shi Lei is not going to give him a sum of money directly, but there is a project that seeks cooperation with him.

"Go ahead and talk." Jackman invited Shi Lei into the room. After the guest host took the seat, he asked the servant to bring a bottle of wine and pour a glass each.

"What can Mr. Shi take care of me?"

"It's impossible to talk about care. There is an investment that wants to talk to Mr. Fris."

Jackman's face suddenly appeared with a bitter smile, he sighed deeply, and there was no food left in his heart.
