American Fortune Life - Chapter 1984
Times create heroes, and heroes create times.
The difference between a hero and a lunatic or two is that there is a tendency behind the hero, while a lunatic and a second don’t. The so-called “the current situation creates a hero.” Therefore, there is still a feeling in the world that “the world and the world help each other, and the heroes are not free.”
“Now there is an opinion that prevails. Americans are too savvy. The so-called capital contribution is symbolic. Not to mention more than 50%, it is more than 30% …”
Li Xiaoying withdrew her thoughts, looked at Andy who was frowning and looked at the documents in her hand, and smiled slightly, as she packed the documents spread out on the table, she said softly.
“Why, do they want to learn the foot basin Disney mode? Oh, yes, if we don’t have a penny in the world, let alone 30%, give me 20%!”
Andy said with a sneer, without looking at Yu Yu in the slightest, and threw the documents in his hand to the table, turning on the vomit mode.
And Li Xiaoying shook her head and sighed, saying rather helplessly: “Hey, I don’t know what they think …”
Looking at Li Xiaoying who shook his head and couldn’t help laughing, Andy raised his eyebrows with sneer. “Our cooperation, but the real capital investment, is not the so-called full capital, and then from the project design costs, management costs, designated equipment procurement costs, The symbolic contribution that was offset from the franchise fees, and sure enough, it is not a business to catch up, do you really think that this project is for them? “
From what documents Andy has seen the ideas of the Beijing partners, they want absolute control, management and financial rights, while the global party does not have even a third of the voting rights in project management, no The right to make a decision is only the subordinate right, that is, the management of Beijing Universal Studios. The financial side of the Beijing side is absolutely dominant and cannot be shaken!
This is undoubtedly whimsical, and whimsical for Andy.
“That being the case, let ’s go back to our own homes, find our own moms, and wash and sleep!” Andy was really smirked. Is Universal Studios more bullied than Disney?
Li Xiaoying frowned and looked at the smirk expression on Andy’s face. After groaning, she said softly: “Perhaps it is the best way to temporarily stop the negotiation. Cooling down for a while can also calm the other side. Thinking about this cooperation, this project is too hot and attention-grabbing in the current capital of Beijing. “
“Oh? Aren’t you worried that the termination of negotiations would put the project on the shelf?” Andy asked with a raised eyebrow when he heard what Li Xiaoying said.
“In the beginning I did have this kind of worry. After all, this is Beijing. Its status is not comparable to that of magic. However, it seems that the stone you dropped has caused ripples, even on our side. Suspended temporarily, many people here will also find ways to promote the implementation of this project. Many things in the heavenly dynasty are difficult to say clearly … “
Li Xiaoying didn’t understand it too much, and Andy nodded thoughtfully, and then smiled: “I was really hesitant at first, and I was going to use some means to force the other side. Now it seems that even if I don’t want to It wo n’t work, let them go to the United States to talk to you! ”
“Snapped!”
Andy patted his hands, got up from the chair, picked up Li Xiaoying, a princess hugged, and walked to the bedroom, laughing, and said, “Stop these bad things, let’s go to sleep!”
“Going to the shower. The smell of perfume mixed with it, smoked to death …”
“Oh, wash together”
A gust of wind and rain came in the evening to wash away all the light. Regardless of Sheng Sheng, but a little makeup on Linghua …
“Notify the other party, please clean up and return to the United States today!”
The next morning, refreshing Andy called before breakfast and called the head of the Universal Studios negotiating team directly. Now that you have decided to show your attitude, do n’t let the water go, just leave the other side for a while.
“Where is Jeju Island?” Andy groaned a little when he heard his inquiries. “Let them formally inspect and disclose some news about the negotiations between the heavens and the side, and let them stimulate the Beijing side for us.”
“Understood the boss, I will inform the other party …”
Hanging up the phone, Andy looked back at Li Xiaoying, who was wearing a set of pure black, full of fashion elements, and broke the simple and monotonous sense of ol in summer. The irregular top and dovetail style were simple and elegant, and she looked elegant in the walk. With a pair of micro-flared trousers, the overall look is free and easy, showing the capable field of a professional woman.
“My dear, you are dressed up and you don’t have any accessories on your neck.”
“Here I didn’t bring it. I will have a meeting in the morning. I won’t come back for lunch at noon. I will go to Jingxi.” A white pearl necklace dangled from Li Xiaoying’s hands, and then she was stuffed into one picked up from the sofa In white handbag.
“By the way, how is Jingxi now?” Andy stretched his arm around Li Xiaoying’s shoulder and asked as he walked towards the restaurant.
“The development is rapid. Since the monthly sales of Jingxi Mall exceeded 200 million yuan in March, becoming the first and only b2c e-commerce company in China with monthly sales exceeding 200 million yuan, its sales in the second quarter reached 840 million. Yuan, accounting for 28.8% of China’s b2c e-commerce market. Sales in June exceeded 370 million yuan, which is the same as the annual sales in 2007, and single-day sales exceeded 30 million yuan. At the same time, daily order processing capacity exceeded 20,000 orders. . “
Hearing Li Xiaoying’s introduction, Andy smashed a few mouths with a smile and said, “Jingxi is about to rise.”
“It is true, but Liu Qiangxi is not burning too fast. He has invested too much in Jingxi Logistics and is constantly expanding. He is burning money for the market. I do n’t think it will take long for him to continue financing. Li Xiaoying sat on the chair behind which Andy removed for her, said thank you, and reported to Andy Hui.
“In the Internet era, traditional business has been changed. Loss is no longer an issue. The important thing is whether the company has value and prospects. It does n’t matter if you burn money for the market, even if you have been losing money, as long as its market value continues to rise, revenue If it grows, the cash flow will be healthy.
You should be clearer. After the cash flow reaches a certain scale, through capital operation, as long as there is a continuous flow of funds in your hand, the company will never fail.
However, you must keep in mind that at any time, you must keep an eye on Jingxi Logistics, and you must ensure that Jingxi Logistics has our shares. I find that these entrepreneurs in the Tianchao have a good hand to get rid of the shell! “
Andy doesn’t care about the problem of burning money in Jingxi. How can an Internet company not burn money? The key is to burn it. Liu Qiangxi burned very successfully, then continue to burn it. At the same time, he also reminded Li Xiaoying Pay more attention to Jingxi Logistics.
Self-built logistics is actually very risky, because the investment is indeed relatively large, but the advantages of self-built logistics compared to outsourced third parties are self-evident. The current fast and convenient logistics in Jingxi is unmatched by other e-commerce companies. Yes, what Jingxi is doing is a strategic layout. The Internet industry must first make a good layout to seize the market. Only with stable and strong traffic can profit be discussed, but this is a long-term process.
As a businessman, to be honest, Liu Qiangxi’s strategic layout is believed to be elusive for many people, but there are still many people who believe him.
“I know. As the largest shareholder, I will not allow him to forcibly divide the logistics of Jingxi!” Li Xiaoying said with a serious expression.
“Hehe, that’s the best, but you also have to be careful about the size of his C2 round of financing. He will definitely introduce new shareholders to check and balance the board of directors. Began to stage … “Andy smiled at Li Xiaoying.
Li Xiaoying was also quite helpless and shook her head. There was no way. The difference between the venture capital and the founder is okay. After all, it can be resolved by compromise, but if there is an irreconcilable conflict of interests, it will definitely be a lose-lose disaster.
In the United States, people often think of venture capital as vulture capital, steam capital, or blood-sucking capital. On the one hand, venture capital is a good entrepreneurial tool, but on the other hand, it also causes pain to many entrepreneurs. If your company’s development is very stable, everything will look smooth, but when you diverge from the concept of product development, talent recruitment, marketing and other venture capitalists, the beautiful bubble will burst.
So, make sure that the startup goals of the startup company are consistent with the investment goals of the venture capital. If there are differences, either convince the venture capitalist or be persuaded. Only if the goals of both sides of the venture capital are consistent, can we avoid possible “disasters”.
