The Prodigal Son: I Can Foresee the Future

Hearing this, Li Dongsheng's face suddenly changed.

How could he not understand what Lin Ming meant?

Early stage acquisition and later stage financing are two completely different concepts!

Even if Qingtai Capital now gives 10 billion, it is just the money to acquire 51% of HSBC Shopping's equity!

As long as Li Dongsheng sells this 51% equity, the fate of HSBC Shopping will be completely out of his control.

At that time, as Lin Ming said.

During the B and C rounds of financing, Qingtai Capital only needs to find an excuse not to give funds, and he, Li Dongsheng, will have no way to do anything!

The key is that Qingtai Capital will also write all of this into the financing contract in the early stage of the negotiation, and Li Dongsheng will have no place to sue.

If this situation really happens.

Then Li Dongsheng will "turn around" and face the dilemma he is facing again!

Want to continue to develop HSBC Shopping?

Yes, he can pay for it himself.

Not enough money?

Isn't there still the remaining 49% of the shares?

Just keep selling!

This is the famous ‘Hungry Wolf Agreement’.

It is also a common trick used by many angel investors!

Even if the investors know that there will be such risks, they have no way to deal with it.

Because only the other party has enough money and is willing to give him enough money!

Long-term vision has lost its meaning here.

Under the oppression of money, countless geniuses have died.

Li Dongsheng actually considered these things and was very worried about them.

But when Lin Ming said it, it was another feeling.

He was not a short-sighted person. He really set his sights on how much benefit this 51% stake could bring him.

But his situation was extremely passive. What was the use of considering these things except worrying?

“Can I think that Director Lin is belittling your opponent?” Li Dongsheng suddenly said.

Lin Ming spread his hands: "Whatever you want."

"It's not like I haven't had this worry before, but what's the difference between Phoenix Capital and Qingtai Capital?"

Li Dongsheng said again: "Qingtai Capital can have problems with future financing, but Phoenix Capital won't? Director Lin, do you think you can change my mind with just a few words from you?"

"Then let me put it this way."

Lin Ming sat up straight, his expression becoming serious.

"I won't just give verbal promises, I will write all of this in the contract!"

"Contracts and legal constraints are only made for the weak. Are they really useful for people like you?"

Li Dongsheng said without disguising: "If you regret it at that time, I can indeed sue Phoenix Capital with the contract, but this kind of lawsuit that takes several years to end, you can afford to delay it, I can't!"

"I have never done such a thing, you can go and investigate."

Lin Ming said: "But if you insist on thinking about it, then I have no other way. Every step forward in life is a gamble. At least in my opinion, Mr. Li is not the kind of indecisive and submissive person!"

Li Dongsheng gritted his teeth, as if he wanted to say something, but he swallowed it back.

Having never done it before does not mean that he will not do it in the future!

Li Dongsheng never believed that Lin Ming could have such achievements in such a short time, really just relying on his personal talents!

Society is developing, and it is no longer the era of "individualism".

If you, Lin Ming, were innocent, would Kehua Steel go bankrupt? Lushi International go bankrupt? The chairman of Huihuang Media go bankrupt?

Stop talking nonsense!

Behind this, we still don’t know what kind of terrible and dark means there are!

Compared with these companies, Li Dongsheng really doesn’t know how HSBC Shopping can compare with them.

Even Kehua Steel has gone bankrupt, so isn’t it more than enough for Lin Ming to play with him?

“Mr. Li.”

Lin Ming suddenly lay on the table and leaned his head towards Li Dongsheng.

“Putting aside other things for now, can you tell me, in your mind, how much is HSBC Shopping’s 51% stake worth?”

“Of course the more the better!” Li Dongsheng said subconsciously.

Lin Ming rolled his eyes: “I don’t know the more the better? You wish it was worth one trillion, but can it really be worth one trillion?”

Li Dongsheng grinned.

He had never expected that someone of Lin Ming's level would roll his eyes...

Well, childish.

But Li Dongsheng did not feel disgusted by this. Instead, he was dazed for a moment.

He felt that Lin Ming like this was more suitable for his age and closer to him.

"If you don't want to say it, then just pretend I didn't ask." Lin Ming said again.

Li Dongsheng hesitated.

Finally, he said: "Based on the current situation, 51% of the shares are not even worth 180 million, but in my plan and expectation, the value of these shares in the future will be 10 times of 180 million, or even more! "

"Then let's do this."

Lin Ming said bluntly: "I will use 180 million to acquire 51% of HSBC Shopping's shares, but I will give you 1.8 billion. As for why, I think I don't need to explain it."

"1.8 billion? ! "

Li Dongsheng stood up suddenly, his voice was frighteningly loud.

There were many strange looks from all around.

Unfortunately, Lin Ming was wearing a mask when he came in, and now he had his back to them, so no one recognized Lin Ming.

This can reasonably explain that they think Li Dongsheng is either a fool or a lunatic!

In such a shabby coffee shop, talking about a 1.8 billion project?

Who the hell would believe it!

But Li Dongsheng didn't care about these looks, he just stared at Lin Ming, as if he wanted to determine the authenticity of the 1.8 billion through Lin Ming's expression.

"If Mr. Li feels that this sincerity is not enough, then I will use 360 ​​million to acquire those shares, and at the same time inject 3.6 billion funds into HSBC Shopping. "

Lin Ming's words were shocking, almost making Li Dongsheng faint.

Don't you believe me?

It doesn't matter, I'll give you the money now!

Anyway, it's all about money.

As long as the funds are in place, extra words are pale!

"Mr. Lin didn't lie to me?" Li Dongsheng breathed quickly.

"Of course, I'm serious."

Lin Ming said: "But the extra money will be used for future capital injections, not for you for free."

"I understand!"

Li Dongsheng nodded, excited and didn't know what to do.

"In order to make Mr. Li completely believe, you can give me a bank account, and I will let the finance department transfer the money to you now."

Lin Ming said again: "Mr. Li, don't misunderstand, this is not forcing you, the money can be placed in your account first, it only represents the sincerity of Phoenix Capital. "

"You can continue to negotiate with Qingtai Capital. If Qingtai Capital can offer a higher price or better conditions, Mr. Li can talk to me then."
