The person sent by Han Xiaowen to discuss the specific details of the investment arrived soon. Comrade Xu did not show up in person, and Tan Shi led the people to negotiate.
Although Tongdao Xu did not come forward in person, Tan Shi would come to him almost every night to report on the progress of the negotiations.
In one sentence: there are huge differences.
The biggest difference is that the people sent by Han Xiaowen to negotiate and the people led by Tan Shi have huge differences in the overall valuation of the Ximendao Internet Cafe branch.
The people sent by Han Xiaowen believed that if they bought shares, the valuation of the branch of Ximendao Internet Cafe should be calculated based on the investment amount of all branches of the branch to calculate the overall valuation of the company.
This was what the people over there insisted on at the beginning.
Tan Shi had previously been instructed by Tongdao Xu to overestimate the company's valuation.
Therefore, she definitely disagrees with the other party's proposition.
After a few days of wrangling.
The people sent by Han Xiaowen finally gave in.
He said that if the monthly profits of the Ximen Road Internet Cafe branch were indeed outstanding, the valuation of the entire branch could be increased as appropriate.
But...their bottom line is that they can increase their valuation by up to 30%.
Tan Shi said absolutely not.
Let alone 30%, even 300% is unacceptable.
The overall valuation she quoted was 50 million.
Immediately, the representative of the other party was so frightened that he screamed, as if someone had stabbed his anus with a red-hot iron fork.
That night, Tan Shi came to Xu Tongdao to report the matter. When she told him this metaphor, Xu Tongdao was shocked.
At that time, he looked at his cousin Tan Shi with a very strange look.
She is a woman!
She is still an out-and-out beautiful woman. Is it really appropriate to use such a metaphor in front of a man like him?
Even if he is her cousin, she must treat her cousin as a man, right?
The red-hot iron fork...
He knows what it is.
How could children who grew up in rural areas not know this?
In their hometown, every household would use an iron fork to poke the firewood in the fire pit when cooking and lighting a fire. Every time the food was cooked and burned, the front of the iron fork would burn red.
If this is like stabbing someone in the anus...
The sour taste reminded him of Laotan pickled cabbage.
"Hey, Xiaodao, do you think our valuation of 50 million is too high? People over there have said that if the valuation is so high, why don't they invest their own money to open a few Internet cafes? I think
What they said makes sense."
After telling the joke, Tan Shi asked Tongdao Xu seriously this question.
Valuation of 50 million...
It was originally ordered by him, Comrade Xu.
He also knew that the valuation was on the high side, and the other party’s reasons were indeed reasonable.
but……
The truth is also limited.
He smiled and said: "I admit that our valuation is definitely on the high side, but isn't it normal? When it comes to business, who doesn't ask for a high price and then pay back the money after landing?"
Didn’t they initially propose to calculate it based on the original investment amount of our Internet cafes?
It doesn't matter if you continue to talk with them and delay for a few more days!
Anyway, if we delay for one more day, we can earn one more day of money. They are the ones who are anxious.
If they really think it would be more cost-effective for them to open an Internet cafe themselves, then let them do it!
Do you think they are telling the truth?"
Tan Shi frowned, "Do you think they are joking?"
Comrade Xu sneered, "Of course they are not joking, but they are probably talking to scare us. Not to mention how many Internet cafes they have enough funds to open, and whether they have that many manpower, just one thing - they
If you invest in an Internet cafe now, how many good locations can you find? How much competition will you face? Have you ever thought about it?"
Tan Shi nodded slightly, thoughtfully.
"Xiaodao, you mean... it's too late to invest in Internet cafes now? Is it difficult to find a suitable location to open an Internet cafe?"
Xu Tongdao: "Yes and no."
"Han Xiaowen and the others are based in Tianyun City. If they want to invest in an Internet cafe, their first choice will definitely be there, because once they leave Tianyun City, Han Xiaowen may not be able to play well without the support of her brother-in-law Jiang Yiming, and she may not have the confidence.
And where is Tianyun City?
Sister, you haven’t seen our Internet cafe branch over there. I don’t know how fierce the competition among Internet cafes is now. It’s better. There are basically several Internet cafes competing in areas suitable for opening Internet cafes. We are there.
The branches nearby can't even expand at a fast pace, do you think Han Xiaowen and the others can do it?"
Tianyun City is the provincial capital.
There is never a shortage of rich people there.
In the past two years, the popularity of Internet cafes and huge profits have not been noticed by the rich people in Tianyun City?
As far as Xu Tongdao knows, those with strong capital are already building a chain of Internet cafes.
There are more bold people who want to make a fortune. Although they have little capital, they are also rushing to invest in Internet cafes.
Among them are some gangsters who used to open entertainment venues such as game arcades and dance halls.
These people may not have much money, but their methods are shady!
Since the people Han Xiaowen sent to discuss this time proposed that they could invest in opening an Internet cafe themselves, it means that they have thought about the feasibility of this.
But after thinking about the feasibility, Han Xiaowen still sent them over to discuss buying shares in Ximendao Internet Cafe. What was the reason?
If they were really sure that they could make money by opening an Internet cafe in Tianyun City, then why would they bother talking to Comrade Xu about investing in the company? How much more percentage would the valuation be increased?
Of course, the valuation of 50 million is not Tongdao Xu’s bottom line.
As he said himself, the asking price is sky-high.
Waiting for landing there to pay back the money!
He is really sincere about this cooperation.
After giving up some shares and getting a sum of funds, he is still waiting for the funds from Han Xiaowen to buy shares to launch his instant noodles project!
After all, he still doesn't have much spare funds on hand.
If you want to launch new projects, there is a huge funding gap.
If some shares are given to Han Xiaowen this time, he can get a sum of funds as soon as possible and launch the instant noodle project as soon as possible. If the instant noodle project can really succeed as he expected.
From a long-term development point of view, the shares and profits given up by the Internet cafe will definitely be worth it.
…
More than a week later.
The two parties finally reached an agreement on the overall valuation of the Ximen Road Internet Cafe.
Ximen Road Internet Cafe currently has 48 branches with an overall valuation of 28 million.
After that, what needs to be discussed is how much capital Han Xiaowen can invest this time and how many shares of the Ximen Road Internet Cafe it will occupy.
This is another difficult issue to discuss.
Han Xiaowen definitely hopes to contribute less money and take more shares.
Comrade Xu, of course, hopes that they will pay more and take less shares.
The two sides continued to argue.
What surprised Comrade Xu - Han Xiaowen actually said that they could invest 5 million in shares.
This not only shocked Tan Shi, but also surprised Comrade Xu.
That woman can have that much money?
This was only 2001, where did she get so much money?
Could it be that Comrade Xu underestimated this woman before?
