Chapter 346: This is going too smoothly
The question is too direct, so it is difficult to answer.
Li Yan decided to answer the question with a question, "R&D is a bottomless pit, but in the future, I can rely on phased results to raise financing. The question is what New Taipei can provide me. If the early technical support is in place, I believe that the start-up funds There won’t be a big gap.”
Deputy Mayor Ren raised his eyebrows and glanced at Director Zuo.
Director Zuo showed a proud expression, "You see what I said is right?"
"Mr. Ni," Ren Jiangfeng asked with a smile, "can you provide Li Yan with some technical support for system research and development? What are the financial requirements?"
Academician Ni took a slow sip of water. "It's a cooperative research, we each get what we need."
"Thank you." Ren Jiangfeng looked at Li Yan again, "Li Yan, I very much welcome you to register your company in New Taipei, and promise on behalf of New Taipei that you will We will give you sufficient support in terms of policies. If you need coordination, you can contact us at any time. We will also provide you with certain financial subsidies, so it is best for you to give us a specific start-up capital requirement.”
The purpose of these two words is to explain that the system research and development already has academician-level teamwork, and they don’t need any capital investment. Li Yan himself said that he can use staged results to finance later, so what is the use of money now?
New Taipei City is very sincere in giving you policies, resource coordination, and financial subsidies.
If you come up with an exaggerated financial requirement, it means that we are not cooperating.
Li Yan didn’t want to reveal his demand card first, because naturally the more the better.
New Taipei City does not want to show its trump cards. Of course, they hope that Li Yan will find more corporate investments.
Li Yan understood this very early, from the time he communicated with Zuo Yuming.
Why should New Taipei support him? It is meaningless to talk about idealism and feelings at this time. We have to talk about interests. Only when Li Yan's project is beneficial to the government will the government be willing to invest. This is the fundamental logic.
As the business card of New Taipei and a celebrity in Linjiang, Li Yan has developed a concept phone that has attracted much attention.
It is absolutely unjustifiable that New Taipei City does not support it.
What’s more, Li Yan chose New Taipei as the place of registration.
Whether mobile phones can be successful or not, the policy support and attitudes provided are in place, which is a good promotional material.
Once the mobile phone is successful, the benefits it will bring to New Taipei and even Linjiang will be unimaginable.
But if the phone fails, the government will only gain propaganda fodder.
The money lost may be criticized by some caring people.
The most important thing is that a private company led by a fifteen-year-old boy is developing mobile phones... This project is incomparable with various infrastructure projects that have immediate results.
I have never seen it before and have no reference.
Even if you look for state-owned enterprises to invest, they may not be happy.
There is also the possibility that Li Yan would cross the river and demolish the bridge and move to Shangjing after getting his stuff done.
No matter how much you support Li Yan emotionally, when it comes time to analyze your work rationally, you still have to be ruthless.
Chuangzu has experience in mobile phone research and development.
But Chuangzu is not sure about the self-developed system.
Who knows how long it will take for the "early investment" to be completed.
Therefore, it is a safer option to let private companies bear this risk and the government to take the lead.
The pressure finally came back to Li Yan, and he had to come up with a specific number.
Li Yan took a deep breath and raised a finger.
Someone in the back row suddenly said: "One hundred million? That's way more than expected."
Li Yan was stunned.
The man stood up and walked around the table towards Li Yan without caring about the others.
He is tall and strong. He looks to be in his thirties, and his hair is already a little gray.
"We can only give you one-third. Do you see enough?"
Ah?
Li Yan was embarrassed to say that she actually wanted 10 million.
This figure is naturally a drop in the bucket for serious mobile phone research and development, but it is good as a start-up capital. Li Yan originally wanted to raise this request to test the government's reaction.
Thirty million? Or private investment?
Although Li Yan herself wanted to ask, "Are you too confident in me?"
"Mr. Han," Deputy Mayor Ren obviously didn't expect it. With such a result, 30 million is actually nothing for a project decided at a meeting in the city, but it is definitely not feasible to invest in a private company with only a semi-finished prototype. "Sure enough, I care about Linjiang!"< br>
The companies that came today are basically from the technology industry. Li Yan knows most of them, but this one, Mr. Han, is relatively unfamiliar.
Seeing Li Yan's confused look, Vice Mayor Ren introduced: "Han Zheng, the general manager of Ligao Intelligent Industry Co., Ltd."
"Hello, Mr. Han," Li Yan stretched out his hand, "Your What you mean is to invest 30 million in the future intelligent Jiaolong mobile phone research and development project?”
“Thirty-three million three hundred and three million.” Han Zheng smiled, “One third. ”
Li Yan didn’t dare to laugh. This level of capital injection is actually not unavailable. On the way to the meeting, I listened to Huang Zhan’s talk. In Linjiang alone, he wanted to “buy tens of millions of future smart phones.” There are several companies.
Li Gao Wisdom Li Yan has never understood it. Anyway, it is definitely not a company that specializes in technology products. If it suddenly spends a lot of money, it is most likely thinking about "is buying half of your company's shares enough?"
"Mr. Han, Ligao Wisdom is..."
"Property management, business management consulting, investment consulting, market research, information system integration..."
No matter how you hear this, it is nothing like today Doesn't it matter too much?
Mr. Han suddenly patted Li Yan on the shoulder, "We have a lot of business, and we also sell surveillance and security equipment, digital products, and communication equipment."
Oh... this is somewhat related. .
"There is also the technical development of Internet technology."
Li Yan was stunned, brother, are you a little complicated?
"Our company is mainly engaged in smart housekeeping business in residential areas, and it has nothing to do with mobile phones." Mr. Han sat directly next to Li Yan, looking a little too enthusiastic, "Li Yan, We always support potential projects in Linjiang.”
Is it coming? What's the cost?
Then Han Zheng looked at Li Yan, and his smile made Li Yan feel proud for a time.
No, brother, tell me, what’s the price?
Don’t give me a hand of gods picking grapes when it’s time to sign the agreement!
Director Chen of the New Taipei Science and Technology Bureau coughed, "Mr. Han, Li Yan is waiting to hear your terms."
Han Zheng then reacted - it was not like acting, but Awesome businessmen are also great actors, no matter how genuine they are, you can’t believe them.
I saw Mr. Han patting his forehead and said, "Look at me, the conditions are very simple. The sales profit of this mobile phone in one year after it is officially launched must be 20% higher."
Look, they really want shares. Although it is only 20%, they will definitely have a way to play capital games with me in the future, and then...
Wait?
Profit?
Or within one year after listing? Have you limited yourself?
What if the mobile phone didn’t come out? What if it fails after going public? That's not 33 million wasted.
However, if mobile phones can be developed, even if only one million units are sold, and the price is two thousand, the sales will be two billion, and 20% of two billion is four hundred million...
< br>No, Mr. Han is not talking about sales, but sales profits!
Profit is something...it's hard to say.
Is it such an ancient, confident and trustworthy investment plan?
Li Yan was completely stunned. Not only him, but the bosses in the two rows opposite also stopped whispering.
The scene was a little funny for a while.
"Are you sure, Mr. Han?" Ren Jiangfeng couldn't help but ask.
It sounds like nonsense, but it still makes sense for him to say it on this occasion: Are there any restrictions?
This is also what Li Yan is worried about. If the profit has a limited amount of time, that is another matter. "Of course, I know what everyone is thinking. We really only want to pay dividends. And we can bear the risk of Li Yan's business failure. Even if this mobile phone is not built, it will only burn money and make no money. Our 33 million will be wasted. Then No problem.”
Brother Han, you are more confident than me.
“The essence of venture capital is to create greater value by supporting disruptive innovative technologies to promote technological progress and industry changes, and ultimately gain ‘knowledge value’, ‘social value’ and ‘economic value’. "
After Mr. Han finished speaking, he patted Li Yan on the shoulder again.
There is still that special look of pride, which makes Li Yan very baffled.
Ren Jiangfeng took the lead in applauding, "You are a huge angel investment, Li Yan. Mr. Han has always been concerned about the development of Linjiang. He is a person with great feelings and ideals. He is not an ordinary businessman. He has a big pattern." , high vision.”
Han Zheng laughed so hard that his shoulders shook, "Mayor Ren is ridiculous, I am just a little willful. The charm of venture capital lies in looking for innovations that are uncertain but may be very disruptive."
" said Well done!" Zuo Yuming cheered.
Li Yan is still stuck in a special emotion that she hasn't come out of - it's so fake, damn it.
Going too smoothly can cause some worry.
What kind of company, what kind of boss, what kind of net worth, how can you not treat more than 30 million as money?
It's not impossible to not have shares but to get profit dividends, especially in China, where many people are unwilling to wait, and free money is the right way to go.
But in the early days of a start-up company, there are no restrictions on giving such a huge "start-up capital" and then waiting for uncertain dividends. It can only be said to be charity.
Unfamiliar businessmen take the initiative to do charity. Has my charm, Mr. Li, reached this level?
If you are a fair-skinned and beautiful rich boss, Li Yan can still suspect that you are trying to get her.
Mr. Han, you don’t have any special hobbies, right?
The big guys in the two rows over there actually didn't feel very calm either.
What is Han Zheng thinking? Ren Jiangfeng couldn't help but think in his mind that the New Taipei City Government was happy to see large investments, but they didn't want to see charity.
I originally thought that the city government would spend two to three million today and mobilize major enterprises in New Taipei to raise some funds to provide Li Yan with a few million start-up capital. If he loses, he will lose.
To be able to build something, big investment must be done through several rounds of financing. It doesn’t matter how it develops in the future. Anyway, the registered address is in New Taipei.
It’s good now. Han Zheng suddenly gave 33 million to support Li Yan. Where is my New Taipei City?
Li Yan also thought that he would achieve his goal today by focusing on start-up capital, making necessary upfront expenditures, and letting potential partners see the background of government endorsement.
Suddenly with this money, he doesn’t need to use promising shares as a bargaining chip to recruit start-up teams, and there is nothing wrong with directly hiring them with high salaries.
Moreover, Han Zheng’s investment was not exchanged for shares, which can be regarded as reducing the investment costs of subsequent investors and will not dampen their desire to invest to a certain extent.
Could it be that Mr. Li’s real problem after his rebirth was his luck?
The editor paid attention to the novel, and at the most critical moment, a golden alliance came; now, Mr. Han came to the mobile phone.
Li Yan uses his ability to produce good enough results, and then someone will send money to his door?
It seems that he didn’t obey the destiny by doing his best, but he did his best to trigger the destiny!
But he calmed down again. All actions must have cause and effect and should not be attributed to luck.
Han Zheng has made such a statement. Naturally, the Provincial Department of Science and Technology, New Taipei City and major industry associations can't sit still. They have all given some support more or less, some are more vague and some are more practical.
But with the 30 million from Han Zheng, at least Li Yan can do the preliminary work with peace of mind, which is enough.
Let’s wait for the system to work out all kinds of other messy things.
At the end of the meeting, there were only four people left. Li Yan discussed the specific matters of the investment with Han Zheng in front of Zuo Yuming and Ren Jiangfeng.
The result is surprisingly simple. Ligao Wisdom will transfer the money directly to Future Smart’s company account.
"What kind of regulatory agency is not needed? What kind of fund operation or something like that?" Li Yan was stunned for the Nth time today.
“Young man,” Han Zheng laughed loudly, “I heard that you are very confident.”
"I am confident. I can guarantee that your investment will definitely make you money."
"Then you just think that businessmen are only interested in profit?"
"No, you can't say that." Li Yan smiled awkwardly, "Identity is identity, and individuals are individuals. Although from a group perspective, identity labels will have some common characteristics, it is best to put aside stereotypes when communicating with individuals."
" Left Hall, Mayor Ren, look at this fifteen-year-old man, wow.”
Then the meeting entered into the routine praise of Li Yan, but after all, the standards were relatively high, and Mayor Ren was very busy. , as soon as Li Yan reached the critical point where Li Yan went from being comfortable to feeling uncomfortable, the meeting broke up.
In the building, Ren Jiangfeng took Han Zheng to his office.
"Old Han, is this money an investment in your name or is it from Ligao Wisdom?"
Han Zheng took a deep breath and sat directly on the sofa, "It's all from Ligao Wisdom. To be fair, how could it be my personal opinion?”
“You are really optimistic about it?”
“To be honest, I don’t understand.” Han Zheng shrugged, “This is the boss’s. I am actually here to implement the request.”
"...Sure enough." Ren Jiangfeng patted his forehead, "Li Gao Zhi is indeed the most suitable, and he did take the trouble."
"So I said 30 million is not a problem, Li Gao is not a problem. This confidence." Han Zheng yawned, "I came back from Bazhou specially. I originally thought that I would just hand it over to the person in charge of the South China area, or the director of our finance department, he asked me to come here specially. "
< br>“It’s very important.”
“He originally prepared 50 million, but I said it depends on Li Yan’s actual needs. If he only needs a few million, rushing to give him 50 million is too much. ."
"Your words about one hundred million are so scary." Ren Jiangfeng also sat on the office chair and started drinking tea.
"He wants 10 million. If he really says it, won't I just be rushing to send money again?"
"Then isn't that what you did in the end?"
"It's not me, it's the boss." Mr. Han shrugged.
"Yi Li is still particularly interested in Linjiang."
"If you praise me, give it all to the boss." Mr. Han laughed.
Ren Jiangfeng was silent for a long time, "Old Han, next time you have such a decision, please let me know first."
"What," Han Zheng had already started to close his eyes to rest, "New Taipei City can support such an awesome person." Is it so difficult to give millions to a project?”
“I’m not as happy with the money as you are. I have to report the situation later.”
Li Yan walked out of the compound. Got in Huang Zhan's car.
“Thirty million, is that enough?” Huang Zhan said with a smile.
"Boss Huang, do you want to add another 30 million?"
"I'm not as wealthy as them, but this is probably not a wealthy thing..." Huang Zhan asked the driver to drive, "Are you going to use your high salary? Recruit people or share shares? "
"Let's talk about it, I'm very demanding," Li Yanxiao.
After all, my next step is to break through the 60% limit and explore the mysterious first-level skills. Once that day comes, I will be a nuclear weapon and become an army by myself!
“Where is Mr. Han?”
"He followed Mayor Ren and Director Zuo upstairs and didn't know what to do."
"Why don't you follow along and gossip?" Huang Zhan teased, "Mr. Li."
The appearance of the title Mr. Li from Huang Zhan's mouth really made Li Yan shiver.
"Mr. Li is my dad, I'm just a junior high school student."
Li Yan felt the car shake. It seemed that the master had just tried hard to manage his emotions.
