Mr. Liu has also been worrying about funding recently.

Although they have worked hard to make a budget, there is still not enough money.

So where the money comes from is a very tangled question.

I have already received a sum of money from Tengda, but I haven't made any results, so I'm a little embarrassed to ask for it again.

But if you don't get money from Tengda, it's harder to get money elsewhere.

As a result, he didn't expect that when he was entangled, He Desheng took the initiative to come to the door to chase after him, which was really heartwarming!

This means that Tengda is optimistic about this project, whether it is in terms of funds or confidence, it has given everyone a shot in the arm.

Therefore, Mr. Liu was deeply moved and thanked He Desheng for his kindness.

He Desheng smiled: "Oh, there's no need to thank me in particular, I just follow Mr. Pei's rules." ”

Mr. Liu on the other side of the phone hurriedly said: "Understood, in short, thank you so much!" Thank you Mr. Pei and Mr. He for their support and trust in our company! ”

"My staff and I will definitely work harder!"

He Desheng called two other small companies that had no hope of making a profit and wanted to pursue investment, and these companies were all overjoyed and moved.

Because in their opinion, Tengda and Dream Ventures' behavior is really heartwarming!

Although the situation of these small companies is different, and the probability of success of the project is also high and low, the vast majority of people really want to make the project happen.

Because the finances of these companies are under the supervision of Tengda, they can't make anything boring, and everyone's interests are the same. If the project can be successful, it is not only the investors who will make money, but also the company owner and all employees.

And in this situation of shortage of funds, Tengda's generosity again is of course a very touching thing.

In the end, He Desheng dialed Meng Chang's phone.

"Hello? Mr. He! Meng Chang's enthusiastic voice rang on the other side of the phone.

He Desheng couldn't help but sigh, in the eyes of others, Meng Chang is really a perfect entrepreneur and a perfect entrepreneur.

Excellent personal image, good eloquence, contagious speech, strong execution, long-term vision, and always energetic, no matter at all times, will put 100% of the energy into the work......

These advantages are all concentrated in one person, and even if there is a small flaw, most investors will subconsciously ignore it.

He Desheng said: "Mr. Meng, congratulations, Mr. Pei decided to invest another six million in the cold-faced girl." ”

On the other end of the phone, Meng Chang was stunned for a moment, and then ecstatic.

Finally!

Finally got Mr. Pei's chase!

Since the establishment of the brand of cold noodle girl, Meng Chang has also taken great pains, from the very beginning of the PPT, to the later press conference, to the recent stores and various marketing events......

I have done so much just to impress investors!

Among all these investors, Meng Chang is most concerned about Mr. Pei. Because Pei is always a genius investor, as long as he can get Mr. Pei's investment, and then take other people's investment, it is a matter of hand!

In fact, so far, many investors have approached Meng Chang in private and want to invest in the cold-faced girl.

But Meng Chang did not agree.

Because the conditions of these investors are too harsh in his opinion.

Some require too many shares, some require the signing of a VAM agreement, and some require the signing of investment terms, such as agreements such as the investor's right of first refusal to sell and restrictions on the transfer of the founder's shares.

The so-called right of first refusal means that the investor and the founder agree that if a third party buys equity from the founder, the investor has the right of first refusal under the same conditions; On the other hand, the equity transfer restriction means that the founders are not allowed to sell their shares before a certain stage of the company (such as before the IPO or M&A).

In layman's terms, it is to restrict founders from selling shares for cash.

This is actually a very common phenomenon, because for investors, investing in a project is investing in people, if the company has invested money and pushed up the company's valuation, but the founder has cashed out and left the company, how to ensure that the company continues to develop rapidly?

Of course, investors hope that the founders will always live a tight and hard life, so that they can go all out to start a business and make money for investors.

And for Meng Chang, this is of course an unacceptable condition.

The purpose of my efforts is to cash out, but you won't let me cash out, so is that okay?

Could it be that I really gave you a lifetime of hard work?

Therefore, Meng Chang did not accept this condition, but was waiting for an opportunity, waiting for an opportunity to increase his right to speak.

If the company's development is too fast, it is a piece of fragrant bait, and countless investors want to get a piece of the pie, then there will naturally be investors rushing to invest, and Meng Chang will no longer need to sign these restrictive terms.

And Mr. Pei's pursuit is a good opportunity.

Because Mr. Pei is the vane of investment in the eyes of many people, Mr. Pei chased the cold-faced girl for 6 million, which is a clear signal, someone will definitely follow, and will sign some looser terms.

This is a key step for Meng Chang!

Because his money burns quickly, if he runs out of money halfway through, he will fall into a very embarrassing situation.

Fortunately, Mr. Pei made a move!

Meng Chang forcibly suppressed the joy in his heart: "Thank you Mr. He, thank you Mr. Pei, I will definitely ......"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by He Desheng: "Don't worry, Pei is always conditional." ”

"The condition is that you must keep the matter of Tengda's pursuit of six million absolutely confidential and not disclose any information to the outside world. This is a confidentiality clause in the investment agreement and cannot be violated. ”

Meng Chang: "? ”

His mood was originally in a state of ecstasy, and when he heard this, it was like being hit in the head, and he was knocked unconscious.

Secrecy?

Why?

Meng Chang was puzzled.

If it is another investor, the founder will generally be restricted from selling shares to cash out. And Meng Chang boldly judged that Mr. Pei would not do this, because Mr. Pei never seemed to have arranged similar terms when investing.

That's why he attaches so much importance to Mr. Pei's investment.

It turns out that his speculation is right, Mr. Pei did not propose similar restrictions, but he never expected that Mr. Pei would have requirements for confidentiality!

This can be regarded as hitting Meng Chang's soft underbelly, not fatal, but very uncomfortable!

Does Meng Chang need this money? Of course it is. But his purpose is not just to let the cold noodle girl burn an extra month or two, but to leverage more investors' funds and push up the company's valuation.

In other words, this matter must be communicated to the investor in order to be valuable.

Otherwise, it's just a dry six million, which is nothing more than letting the cold-faced girl burn money for a while longer.

However, Meng Chang had no reason not to accept the money.

Because Mr. Pei's money does not restrict the founder from selling shares to cash out, it is much better than the conditions given by other investors.

Besides, the façade of the cold-faced girl still has to continue to hold on, the money still has to continue to burn, the capital chain can't be broken, and once the scene is broken, it won't be able to sing.

Therefore, this money is just stuck in a position a little higher than Meng Chang's psychological bottom line, and it is a pity to abandon it, and it is tasteless to eat.

On the other end of the phone, He Desheng asked, "Is there any problem?" ”

Meng Chang quickly reacted and hurriedly said, "No problem! ”

He Desheng didn't say much, just encouraged him to work harder, and hung up the phone.

Meng Chang let out a long breath, a trace of worry appeared on his face.

After several previous experiences, Meng Chang already knew very well that it was pointless to bargain on this kind of issue, and Mr. Pei was such a character who said the same, and it was impossible to give him a chance to bargain.

If you don't take this money now, I'm afraid you won't be able to get it in the future, and it's more comfortable to hold this money than other money that restricts the sale of shares.

Meng Chang couldn't help but sigh, Mr. Pei is indeed unfathomable, from dealing with him to the present, Mr. Pei's every action seems to make him very uncomfortable!

At the beginning, when Meng Chang got the investment, he had to accept Tengda to assign finance; Now the second investment must be kept secret.

If you give a score to satisfaction, then Meng Chang's satisfaction is around 60 every time.

If this score is a little lower, Meng Chang may give up, and there will be no brand of cold noodle girl at all.

Mr. Pei can just card this with the score, step on Meng Chang's psychological bottom line, and let him start a business, but he always makes some restrictions in some seemingly inconsequential places, which makes Meng Chang very uncomfortable.

What worries Meng Chang the most now is that he doesn't know if his thoughts have been seen through by Mr. Pei?

Are these restrictions imposed by Mr. Pei on himself aimed at himself or for all investors?

Meng Chang knew very well that at the last press conference, Mr. Pei sent Mr. Ma to beat himself, this kind of master trick is like playing Tai Chi, stopping at each other's points, and will never go too far, but will definitely not scratch the boots.

Mr. Pei's series of behaviors made Meng Chang feel like an extremely calm wolf, following him from afar.

It seems careless, but it makes people's hearts hairy.

It is possible that this wolf just happened to pass by and would not hurt him, but it was also possible that he would suddenly accelerate and jump out in the next second, directly knocking him to the ground and biting his throat.

Mr. Pei's method of detachment has always kept a certain distance from Meng Chang, neither infringing on his core interests, nor giving up the threat to him.

There are some chilling feelings, but I always have self-doubt, I don't know if it's a delusion.

It's contradictory.

But at this point, Meng Chang felt that he was only one step away from success, and there was no reason to give up.

Thinking of this, Meng Chang calmed down and made up his mind to continue to implement the original plan.

Although Mr. Pei made some restrictions on him, he did not completely restrict death, and still retained some maneuverable space. Meng Chang felt that he could operate it again.
