Chapter 2068 We have to spend money
Is it true that they say the stock price can rise? Why do I feel like this is a fraud?
Looking at Zhou Ming and the others leaving, Hawke and others showed a look of suspicion, because in their opinion, the media meeting just now was clearly Edison taking advantage of them, and they deliberately said that cooperation was just to promote themselves under the banner of their technology, and they were trying to kill themselves!
"We can't just let them go, after all, this is the task that the headquarters has assigned to complete!"
Some people suggested stopping Isabella and other guys and not letting them run away. Some people pointed out that they are just turning against each other and they must give them some color.
"To let those bastards know that we can't deceive at will, even if I die, I will let them die first!"
But some people also hold their last hope: "What if? Wouldn't it be better if the stock price really rises?"
In the chaos, Hawke finally stood up and told everyone to rest assured.
"No matter what, the stock prices of our respective companies are the most important!" Hawke looked at everyone, "And it won't take much time to verify, they can't escape!"
With Hawke's words, everyone quickly took out their phones to call the headquarters or New York to verify the stock price of their own companies, and then the feedback made them all stunned.
Has it increased?
All of them have risen?
"Your remedy this time is very good, but remember it for me and don't do such stupid things again in the future!"
The warning from the headquarters made Hawke and others buzz. They couldn't figure out why Isabella bragged about the cooperation in front of many media, so why did their stock prices rise? Shouldn't it be their Edison who took a big advantage?
How could they know that there are magical assists from New York financial giants such as Piero, and they just feel that the current situation is incredible.
"It seems that this time we have taken advantage of their hot spots. This blood test project really has market prospects!"
After the phone call at the headquarters, Hawke and others couldn't stop wondering.
As for revenge on Isabella and Edison and expose the scam of their blood test project, no one mentioned it again. After all, the stock price now depends on projects that cooperate with Edison. If you expose this now, not only will you cause trouble for yourself, but other pharmaceutical companies will even be unlucky.
If so many pharmaceutical companies really hurt the decline, these companies will definitely create a thousand or one way to die for you.
Damn bastard! That little bitch Isabella must have done it on purpose!
This feeling of hating them to death but not being able to do anything is really heartbreaking and painful!
...
In the suite, Sherlock Holmes and Isabella were very happy.
Westin kept bragging to the father and daughter: "I tell you that Mr. Zhou Ming is the top planning expert in the United States and a capital trader. No matter what project you have in his hands, he can turn decay into magic. In the field of capital, Mr. Zhou Ming has ten thousand ways to kill his opponents! Now those idiots in Hawk must be crazy and have no choice but to do anything to us!"
Zhou Ming sat next to him with a cup of Coke, and Zhou Ming was helpless about Westin's flattery.
In fact, Zhou Ming knew very well that he was not as magical as he said. He just relied on his rebirth advantage and knew which industries or companies would be popular in the future.
, it's just an advance investment.
Just like this one-drop blood test project and Edison Company, if you want to change someone, Zhou Ming may not have a way to do it for him.
After Westing Yitong boasted, the topic gradually fell back into practice, and Sherlock Holmes asked Zhou Ming's company about its next development plan.
From the time he asked this, Sherlock Holmes could be said to be completely convinced by Zhou Ming. He knew very well that if he was himself, he would never be able to do this.
However, Zhou Ming did not answer immediately, but asked Isabella what she planned.
"Are you planning to develop or continue to promote financing?" Zhou Ming asked.
Even Holmes had no idea, and Isabella had no idea. She didn't even understand the difference between these two points.
"I definitely want to develop it, because a drop of blood test project is really cool!" Isabella continued, "but now it seems that our money has been spent."
"It seems we have the only option left."
Zhou Ming smiled and said, in fact, he asked that on purpose. Zhou Ming knew very well that Edison had no other options at all. If he wanted to survive, he had to continue to promote and raise funds until the road was dark.
But Zhou Ming is not good to mention it directly. After all, Isabella is still so young now. God knows if she is a little naive and romantic about young people. However, as a child who grows up in a capital family, Isabella can obviously still recognize the reality.
"I will contact some investment banks in San Francisco or Wall Street as soon as possible." Sherlock Holmes volunteered.
Sherlock Holmes is not stupid. Through this trip to San Diego, he has clearly seen the value of a drop of blood test, so he has changed from the original nature of the game to really planning to build this project.
Of course, Holmes still did not use the real connections at home, but just had normal entrepreneurial contacts.
But Zhou Ming shook his head and rejected Holmes's idea, which made him very puzzled. Isn't he going to raise funds? Why not let him contact those investment banks?
"Mr. Zhou Ming, please rest assured. Even if we raise funds and come in, we will give priority to guaranteeing your equity in Edison, Mr. Zhou Ming!" Sherlock Holmes thought Zhou Ming was worried that other capitals would reduce his voice.
Zhou Ming shook his head and said he didn't have this idea: "I think what we need to do now is to give priority to donating laboratories in various universities."
When he heard Zhou Ming's plan, not only Sherlock Holmes and Isabella, but even Westin glared at him because Edison's company account had no money, otherwise Sherlock Holmes would not have taken out his credit card to swipe the renewal of the exhibition center before.
Although he later sacked 300,000 yuan from Peters, he didn't have much left after paying the relevant fees from Columbus TV. You should know that public opinion is a beast of money! Even the money for hiring a film crew in Los Angeles and going to pharmaceutical companies such as Ruihui to shoot videos was paid by Zhou Ming and Westing.
In this way, now you still have to donate to the university's laboratory?
"You don't have to stare so wide. I know the current Edison account situation. We can send the second and third batches of funds in advance." Zhou Ming then added, "Of course, we have to deduct the photography fee we paid before."
Sherlock Holmes shook his head and said that he didn't mean that: "I mean we shouldn't introduce it first now."
Does his funds enter? Do he still need to spend money?"
Zhou Ming did not answer, but asked him back: "Mr. Sherlock Holmes, which one do you think is more favored by capital if you lack money or a company that does not lack money?"
Forehead!
Holmes choked at that time, and he had no idea how to answer.
"Don't you know how to answer? Then I'll tell you, it's definitely a company that is not short of money." Zhou Ming told him.
This answer may sound a bit counterintuitive, but that's the case, because companies that are short of money often lack both creativity and market, and even have strong relationships.
It is precisely this reason that most angel investments are often less than 100,000 US dollars, or even 10,000 US dollars or even thousands of US dollars. In the final analysis, it is investors' distrust, thinking that such investment is extremely risky and not worth their investment.
But even the $20,000 US dollars often comes with a lot of additional conditions, which is also for investors to stop losses in time.
It is very interesting to have a startup company that is not short of money. There is always a strong one in creativity, market or background relationships. Such a startup company is the most favored by investors: because it is not so easy to fail!
Of course, it is far from enough to just do this. Zhou Ming continued: "The most important thing is that through this public opinion manipulation, we have already put out Edison's advertisements. Investment banks that should know must know. What we need now is to compete with them for patience."
Zhou Ming sat upright and looked at Sherlock Holmes opposite: "If we were looking for investment banks at this time, we would indeed be able to raise a lot of financing, but at the same time, there would definitely be many various conditions. This is not what Edison wants now!"
Holmes shivered unconsciously, then nodded repeatedly: "I understand, let's do everything as Mr. Zhou Ming."
Zhou Ming then smiled, and then Zhou Ming discussed with Sherlock Holmes and Isabella the donated laboratory.
Zhou Ming is not familiar with this, but Zhou Ming’s requirements are just two points: famous and authoritative!
As long as these two points are reached, donating to any university or laboratory.
Finally, after repeated discussions between Sherlock Holmes and Isabella, the laboratories of two universities, Stanford and Hawkings, were determined.
The reason is simple. Needless to say, Stanford is Isabella's alma mater, and Hawkings University is the top medical subject in the United States. Donating to the medical laboratory of Hawkings University can achieve a good publicity effect: Look! I can cooperate with Hawkings University in donating, can't I still invest?
After getting the answer, Zhou Ming made a very readily decision and it was them.
After the discussion, Holmes and Isabella and his daughter soon returned to their rooms to rest. Zhou Ming and Westin were left. Westin could no longer help asking Zhou Ming: Is this really OK?
Zhou Ming smiled and knew that this guy had wanted to ask this question for a long time.
"Mr. Zhou Ming, I have no other meaning. Of course, I trust your investment planning very much, but I am worried about time. After all, the guys in Pittsburgh are still watching us, and we need to get results as soon as possible." Westing said.
Zhou Ming patted Westin on the shoulder and told him: "Of course I understand this too. In fact, what I am doing now is a plan to speed up the progress as much as possible."
Westin took a deep breath and finally nodded vigorously.
