Chapter 459 Investment Banks Attack
"Mr. Yi, what's wrong with you?"
"Why are you so enthusiastic all of a sudden?"
Seeing Chen Fangyi's enthusiastic look, Huang Xu hesitated for a moment, wondering what was going on with him today.
Chen Fangyi looked at Huang Xu's hesitant expression and replied with a smile.
"Of course I haven't seen you for a long time, Mr. Xu. I'm so happy to see you!"
"Come here and try my new tea."
"This is the best white silver needle that I finally bought. It is very rare to find it."
With that said, he came to the tea table and sat down, and then called Huang Xu and Huang Chao at the door to come and sit down.
Then he skillfully started making tea, and then poured a cup for Huang and Xu.
"Here, try it and see how it tastes."
"Thank you Mr. Yi."
Looking at the apricot-yellow tea soup in front of him, Huang Xu also tapped his fingers to express his gratitude, and then picked up the tea cup.
After tasting it carefully, Huang Xu nodded with satisfaction.
"The taste is mellow, the aroma is fragrant, the aftertaste is sweet, fresh and refreshing, it is indeed a good tea!"
"Mr. Xu knows better!"
Chen Fangyi also seemed relatively happy when he heard Huang Xu's evaluation.
As a southerner, and a southerner who likes to drink tea, I will basically be happy when I meet someone who understands my tea.
And the most important thing is that Huang Xu can still get to the point, he really understands tea, and he is not just talking politely, which makes him even happier.
In fact, it’s not just tea, there are many hobbies that are the same.
As long as you meet someone who is knowledgeable or relatively knowledgeable, you will be very happy.
But after feeling happy, Chen Fangyi changed the topic and complained directly to Huang Chao next to him.
“It’s not like some people who don’t understand how to drink it, so they say the tea is not good and has a strange smell.”
"Uh~~~~"
Hearing Chen Fangyi's complaints, a hint of embarrassment suddenly appeared on Huang Chao's face next to him.
However, he didn't mean to refute, he just lowered his head and drank the tea in front of him in one gulp.
There was no way. When he tasted this tea for the first time, he was not used to drinking fermented tea and didn't know much about it, so he commented that it didn't taste good and he didn't like it.
Then this matter was remembered by Chen Fangyi.
And because of this incident, it was not the first time that he complained about himself.
Huang Xu looked at the familiar complaints between the two and smiled and shook his head without saying anything else.
After spending a few minutes briefly communicating with Chen Fangyi about the varieties and origins of tea, we started today's main topic.
First, Chen Fangyi, as the general manager of the company, briefly summarized the changes and achievements of the company during this period.
"At present, after four months of development, the company already has fifty-six employees, and the company has also refined its responsibilities and established it"
"Then there is the number of registered users. There are now more than 62 million registered users, occupying ."
"."
After giving a simple and orderly report on the company's current situation, Chen Fangyi finally made a summary.
"In general, the company has firmly established itself as the top spot in the country in terms of women's health management software."
“And there is no one on the market that can compete with us.”
"Thank you for your hard work, President Yi!"
Although he had already heard it once, Huang Xu was still very attentive when he listened to Chen Fangyi's report again.
And after Chen Fangyi finished his report, he did not hesitate to praise him.
"If Mr. Youyi hadn't been here to take care of the overall situation and personally handle every detail, the company would not have achieved its current results."
"That's an exaggeration, Mr. Xu."
Chen Fangyi waved his hands repeatedly when facing Huang Xu's praise.
"How old is Mr. Changxu? To put it bluntly, he just has a little more management experience."
"To say that the person who has made the greatest contribution must be Mr. Xu."
"If President Xu had not done a good job in the early planning and guided the road correctly, then whatever we are doing would not be as high as it is now."
"."
"."
While Huang Xu and Chen Fangyi were complimenting each other back and forth, Huang Chao, who was watching from the side, was sitting quietly without any intention of disturbing them.
He looked at the two of them quietly, and there were so many thoughts in his heart as you complimented me and I responded to you.
"I didn't expect that the two of them have such a side."
"Especially Chen Fangyi, if the people below see him like this when facing Huang Xu, their jaws will definitely drop."
"Mr. Chen, who usually has a dark face and is unsmiling, actually does this."
"And Huang Xu, why didn't I realize that he actually knows these things?"
"The little kid who used to run behind me has really grown up now!"
Just when Huang Chao was watching the two of them being polite to each other, with a lot of thoughts in his heart, Chen Fangyi and Huang Xu finally stopped after two or three minutes of arguing.
At the same time, he raised his glass and took a sip of tea to moisturize his dry mouth and tongue, and then returned to the next topic.
"Mr. Xu, someone from an investment bank contacted me a few days ago."
"Oh, which company is it?"
Huang Xu didn't feel surprised when he heard the news.
Although Meiyou Software has only been established for half a year now, and there are no profitable projects.
But with such a large user base, people from investment banks will definitely not let it go after seeing it.
Maybe they still don't quite understand that users in the Internet era are the essence of wealth, but when they see such a hot company, they will definitely get involved.
It doesn’t matter if he has dates or not, let’s hit him with a stick first.
However, Huang Xu's nonchalant attitude made Chen Fangyi stunned for a few seconds.
Looking at Huang Xu's calm appearance, he recalled how excited he was when he got the call from the investment bank last year, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
"The waves ahead beat the waves behind, and a hero emerges from the youth!"
However, he was surprised, and he quickly regained his composure, and then started to explain to Huang Xu.
"There are currently two companies that have contacted me, namely Xianfeng Huaxing and ZhenFund."
"Are Xianfeng Huaxing and ZhenFund?"
Listening to this strange yet familiar name, Huang Xu slowly began to recall it from the depths of his memory.
He remembered that when he was investigating Chen Fangyi, he seemed to have seen the names of these two investment institutions.
Huang Xu, who was blessed by the rebirth buff, quickly recalled the information he had seen before.
These two companies are the same companies that invested in Chen Fangyi’s rebate network last year.
And although these two companies are domestic investment banks, their background and strength cannot be underestimated.
Although Xianfeng Huaxing has only been established for three years, it has already invested in many companies thanks to Huaxing Capital.
For example, Jumei Youpin, which will be listed on the New York Stock Exchange next year, was successfully invested less than three months after its establishment.
And they are expected to get hundreds of times return on this investment.
Another Zhen Fund, although it does not have a big backer like China Renaissance, was founded by Xu Xiaoping, who withdrew from New Oriental after its listing, and Wang Qiang.
There are countless companies invested in, and many have gone public.
Even many software and companies that Huang Xu was familiar with in later generations have his presence behind them. Now that he is being targeted by these two companies, Huang Xu doesn't know whether it is a blessing or a curse.
In the future, as the company develops, it will definitely receive investment or be directly acquired.
But that's later.
Now Huang Xu definitely doesn't want to accept investment, or doesn't want to accept their investment.
His target customers are those major Internet companies, preferably the top ones.
But the most important thing now is what Chen Fangyi thinks.
So after thinking for a while, he asked Chen Fangyi, who was concentrating on making tea.
"So what is Mr. Yi thinking now?"
"Accept their investment? Get two partners?"
"Still."
"No, I don't have any ideas now."
"It's just that an investment bank called me. I definitely want to report it to Mr. Xu."
"Whether or not to accept investment depends on Mr. Xu's thoughts."
Facing Huang Xu's problem, Chen Fangyi decisively removed himself from the middle and threw the problem back to Huang Xu.
Although he had only worked with Huang Xu for half a year and Huang Xu was several years younger than him, he still trusted Huang Xu very much.
Maybe it's because the cooperation in the past six months has been quite pleasant, and he doesn't want to lose Huang Xu as a partner.
It may also be because, before cooperating with Huang Xu, he admired Huang Xu's series of development plans and control of the future.
Of course, it may also be because Huang Xu is the company's major shareholder.
In short, he didn't want his own ideas to affect Huang Xu's decision-making.
However, his behavior completely gave Huang Xu a headache.
Originally, you only needed to consider how to persuade the other party, but now you have a lot more to consider.
Therefore, he did not answer immediately, but fell into deep thought.
After thinking quietly for a while, he raised his head, looked at Chen Fangyi and asked.
"Mr. Yi, is there anything missing in our company's current development?"
"Money, our company is in urgent need of money now."
When Chen Fangyi faced Huang Xu's question, he answered it directly and began to explain without waiting for Huang Xu to ask the question.
"The biggest limitation to the company's development now is that there is no money in the account."
"Although our software is just a simple menstrual period calculator, it basically does not have many online services and does not require too many servers."
"But with a base of more than 60 million, the price of renting a server will not be too small."
"And once you start your plan, these demands will rise sharply."
"There is also the matter of making sanitary products as you mentioned earlier, which also requires a large amount of capital investment."
"Finally, as the company expands, we need new office space, and the monthly salary expenses are not a small sum."
"There is not much money left in the company's account now."
"Well, I understand."
After listening to Chen Fangyi's story, Huang Xu nodded, indicating that he understood.
In the early days of a company, lack of money can be said to be a common problem in the industry.
But the company is short of money, which does not mean that the two of them are short of money.
Not to mention that I have a large deposit from more than 400 franchise stores in my Korean company account, which I can call at any time.
Just say that his current personal assets are not a small amount.
The franchise fees paid by those stores, as well as commissions on decoration equipment, as well as commissions on various materials they received each month, made Huang Xu directly into the wealthy class.
As for Chen Fangyi, even though Meiyou only has input and no output, he has a cash cow like the rebate network to replenish his blood.
The model of Fangli.com is actually somewhat similar to Huang Xu’s chain franchise, relying on transaction commissions.
Thanks to this, although Chen Fangyi is not as rich as himself, he is definitely not considered a poor person.
So Huang Xu said to Chen Fangyi very calmly.
"Mr. Yi, the shortage of funds is not a big problem for us, right?"
"Neither of us are short of money. If we don't have enough, let's invest some money."
“When the time comes, invest in proportion to the shares, so you don’t have to worry about your shares being diluted.”
"If it's not convenient for Yi Zong to have funds, I can lend you some first."
"No need for this, I still have some savings."
Chen Fangyi shook his head and directly rejected Huang Xu's idea.
Just like Huang Xu said, although he is not as rich as Huang Xu, he is still relatively wealthy, and there is no problem in investing some more.
And to be honest, he doesn't really want to accept investment from investment banks now.
According to the current situation of the company, even if investment banks invest, the company's valuation will not be too high.
On the contrary, if we wait until the company's subsequent online shopping projects are launched, the company's valuation will be qualitatively improved.
The reason why he brought it up this time was not only because he didn't want to conceal information and create a gap between the two, but also to test Huang Xu's idea again.
Fortunately, Huang Xu did not disappoint him.
So he then said directly to Huang Xu.
"Then Mr. Xu, let's put the financing aside for now and then invest some funds?"
"Well, put in some more."
"If we introduce investment banks now, I always feel that we will lose a lot."
Although he had agreed, Huang Xu was still a little surprised when he looked at Chen Fangyi.
He didn't expect that he would be shot falsely by Chen Fangyi.
But he didn't feel angry, instead he was a little happy.
It will definitely be beneficial to the development of the company if the two bosses can unite their fronts and ideas.
Then the two began to discuss the amount of investment again.
It is necessary to ensure that the money invested this time is sufficient for the company's subsequent development, and it is also necessary to ensure that Chen Fangyi and Huang Xu's capital flow can support them.
In the end, it was decided that the two of them would invest a total of 20 million soft sister coins for the development of the company.
As for why they invested so much, it was naturally because the two of them wanted to do something big.
They plan to prepare millions of 1-cent sanitary product gift packages for these registered female users.
Let these registered female users become the first batch of experience centers to launch menstrual products authorized by their company.
And this requires more than 10 million yuan of capital.
However, the benefits of such a large price are also obvious.
If you want to snap up these gift packages, you need to bind your bank card or payment information.
Moreover, these sanitary products are carefully selected by them as high-quality products that are essential for women during their menstrual period.
Once they experience it, someone will buy their subsequent products at regular prices.
Then their online shopping project can take the first step to success.
It can even be said that it will skip the initial accumulation and become a well-known shopping website that professionally serves women.
It can be said that apart from the slightly larger investment, there are no disadvantages.
