Chapter 213 Activating the direction of future investment
If Xu Renshan remembered correctly, the person who stood up to greet him was Zeng Fengqi, a classmate in the business management class, a very low-key ordinary young woman.
Well, he has an average appearance and figure.
If he hadn't been the temporary squad leader and read the other party's information yesterday and checked it carefully, Xu Renshan might not have remembered the other party's name.
"Monitor, are you the husband of the division commander?"
When she saw the handsome squad leader, Zeng Fengqi, who was in the small box, stood up quickly and asked in surprise.
"Hello, classmate Zeng."
After shaking hands with the other party, Xu Renshan sat next to his wife and asked curiously: "Yuxuan, how do you know each other?"
"When Director Zeng was working at Ali Group, he happened to be responsible for the sales consultant of our Jingjing Clothing and Xue Yuxuan in TB Mall. I didn't expect that Director Zeng was in the same class as you."
Speaking of this matter, Shi Yuxuan also felt that everyone was quite destined.
Before her husband came, she felt that the world was a little small when she heard that Zeng Fengqi had applied for this year's MBA business management class at Jiangsu University.
"I didn't expect such a coincidence."
After discovering that her squad leader and the beautiful CEO were a couple, Zeng Fengqi smiled a lot more and felt that she was much more likely to get investment this time.
"Mr. Zeng has resigned from Ali Group to start his own business. He is planning to build an e-commerce website focusing on women's fashion. He asked me if I am willing to invest."
After sitting down, Shi Yuxuan briefly explained the reason for the other party's appearance.
The reason why Shi Yuxuan asked her husband to come with her was because she wanted to listen to her husband's opinion.
As a couple, there are some things that cannot be discussed.
"I heard that the salary at Ali Group is quite high. Why is Mr. Zeng thinking about quitting his job and starting a business?"
After taking a sip of warm water, Xu Renshan smiled and asked about the original intention of starting a business.
Compared with starting a business with an uncertain future, he feels that being a senior executive in a promising large private enterprise is a good choice.
If it were you in your previous life, you would most likely choose a comfortable life where you don't have to worry about an uncertain future.
"It's better to work for others than to work for yourself."
Speaking of this, Zeng Fengqi answered very calmly.
As a young person with ideals, she didn't want to lose her will to start her own business at the age when she was most capable of working hard.
If in a few years she has a family and children, she may not have such courage.
"It's very ideal. Can Mr. Zeng tell you about the idea of that e-commerce website?"
After giving his wife some food and giving her a reason to like it, Xu Renshan casually asked about the model of the e-commerce website.
Regarding this, Xu Renshan felt that his wife really did the right thing by letting him refer to it.
After all, for a prophet who has been a prophet for more than ten years, the website model that he has rarely heard of is basically out of date.
"We plan to start building a sharing community model, guide fashion trends, and then use existing resources to establish a shopping guide platform to link to the major online shopping platforms."
Regarding this point, Zeng Fengqi, who was well prepared, skillfully explained the model she had developed.
She is not worried that the other party will plagiarize her ideas. First of all, she knows the character of this beautiful CEO, and they now have several similar websites.
However, Zeng Fengqi's own advantage is that she has worked for Ali Group for many years and has several colleagues who started businesses together, so she has rich experience and connections.
The reason why she chose to invest in this beautiful CEO was because Zeng Fengqi heard that Jingjing Clothing was not doing well in brand promotion in China and was planning to transform. This idea of hers could just help the other party.
Moreover, Zeng Fengqi knew very well that the master's net worth was quite high.
"I remember that there seems to be a website called Meilishuo that is very similar to the model you mentioned."
After listening to the other party's story, Xu Renshan's memories began to overlap with a website a few years ago in his previous life, which seemed to be promising.
However, before he suggested to his wife to set up a cross-border e-commerce website, Xu Renshan had searched for a beautiful website on the Internet, which was a company that could still be active in the live streaming shopping guide market ten years later.
Of course, what impressed him most was that in his previous life, his second nurse girlfriend had bought a lot of things on a shopping guide website and said that it was a company listed on the New York Stock Exchange in North America with billions of dollars.
Market value.
This type of shopping website platform is still very promising.
"Yes, the model of Meilishuo website is somewhat similar to what I mentioned, but it is very different. In addition, I have three colleagues from Ali Group who will also participate."
Hearing the young and handsome squad leader say the key words, Zeng Fengqi was a little surprised and admired, and also pointed out her own advantages.
No wonder he became the husband of this beautiful CEO with a net worth of billions. This monitor is still very good. It can only be said that excellent people and excellent talents will come together.
"That is to say, in addition to yourself, there are three former colleagues and partners?"
"Yes."
"Then how much investment do you need and how many shares can you give?"
Tapping his fingers on the table, Xu Renshan asked a very crucial question.
There are four people in the founding team. As an investor, his wife may not receive too many shares.
Investment definitely requires a return, and it must be compared with the risk output.
"20 million, 40% of the shares."
After telling this data, Zeng Fengqi waited for the other party to bargain.
The bottom line she discussed with several colleagues was around 12 million. It was normal to offer a high price first during negotiations.
"25 million, 49% shares."
Without any intention of bargaining, Xu Renshan, who was a little surprised that the other party offered two-fifths of the equity, directly added 5 million to the 100-percent investment amount proposed by the other party.
If you want to invest in this kind of website, you have to make it bigger and stronger, and the initial investment is definitely indispensable.
The reason for adding 9% more shares is to reduce the cost of additional investment in the future. The money increased in the early stage can be saved several times later.
""
Still preparing to wait for the other party's counter-offer, Zeng Fengqi almost spit out her tea after listening to the squad leader's words.
This is a bit too refreshing.
Immediately, Zeng Fengqi's eyes focused on the face of the beautiful CEO who said little, wondering whether the squad leader had the final say.
"My husband's opinion is my opinion."
Knowing what the other party meant when he looked at her, Shi Yuxuan smiled and emphasized her husband's right to speak.
It’s just an investment of 25 million, not a big investment.
In order to build a cross-border e-commerce platform, she invested 100 million in the early stage to acquire shares of a certain company, but has not yet seen any profits.
"Okay, I agree to this condition."
Seeing that the beautiful CEO had no objections, Zeng Fengqi naturally agreed.
Although the other party demanded 49% of the shares, it did not exceed their bottom line. Their management team still owned 51% of the relative holdings.
Moreover, as the website develops in the future, with successive rounds of investment, the other party's shares will be gradually reduced, so there is nothing to worry about.
"It's a pleasure to work with you. Has Mr. Zeng figured out what the new website will be called?"
Signing to the tea in his hand, Xu Renshan smiled and asked about the name of the website.
"A few of our partners discussed it before and planned to call it 'Phoenix Street'."
Speaking of this name, Zeng Fengqi replied with a smile.
Naming the website must be the job of their founding team. Of course, they can also listen to the opinions of big investors.
"The phoenix flies, its feathers flutter, it's a good name."
Hearing the name, Xu Renshan was surprised and raised his eyebrows, confirming the other party's creativity.
He never expected that the website he was investing in now would be the same shopping website that would be listed on the New York Stock Exchange a few years later. This was a bit of luck.
Originally, Xu Renshan wanted to use the Phoenix Street routines he knew. It seemed that he had done it many times. He only needed to instill some concepts into these founders occasionally.
But one thing he seemed to remember was that after the two traffic kings of TB Mall and Douyin Video began to enter online live shopping, the market value of Phoenix Street, which was left behind, plummeted by 90%.
If a king hesitates, he will be defeated by diamonds later.
Well, before that time, you can let your wife cash out her shares and leave the market.
Chapter completed!
