Of course, ordinary entrepreneurs hope to be like Chen Zhu. In addition to having the final say in the company, they must also hold more than 50% of the shares.

However, there are many twists and turns in the entrepreneurial process, and sometimes you have to bring in various partners to bear risks, which will inevitably dilute the equity.

Therefore, most entrepreneurs do not have an absolute requirement for "50%".

Just settle for the next best thing and just have the final say.

How to make the final say yourself?

That is, it is enough to hold the most shares relatively.

Wang Haibin has not yet experienced such things as "brothers fighting against each other", so he always ties his own interests to those of his two friends.

This is what he thinks now. Since Taomi Technology can bring in one investor, it can also bring in a second investor.

Tencent, where I worked before, has gone through several angel rounds, with countless domestic and foreign investment institutions, and the cross-shareholding is also very strong.

After hearing Wei Zhen's words just now, Wang Haibin suddenly had a bold idea. If Su Hui and Ms. Song were allowed to enter the venue at the same time, would something like this happen:

Looking back, I saw that the price offered by Ms. Song was so high. Will I apply for more funds from the school?

When Ms. Song sees that she only requires 30% of the shares retroactively, will she consider withdrawing her overbearing requirement of 51%?

Wang Haibin told Wei Zhen and Chen Yunpeng what he was thinking, but they were essentially novices in the shopping mall and were somewhat undecided about this decision.

But now we are in a dilemma. Rather than fussing over this pointlessly, we might as well give it a try.

"No matter what happens, we can only accept the retroactive price of 600,000 yuan."

Wang Haibin raised his head and said to Wei Zhen.

This was meant to comfort him, and it was also equivalent to giving everyone a reassurance. In short, there was still a way out.

Wei Zhen grinned: "Actually, I also think Suhui's bid is a bit low compared to Ms. Song's. I hope they can add more."

"Lao Wang, if two investors are introduced, what proportion should we account for?"

At this time, Chen Yunpeng thought for a while and asked.

"If there are three companies, based on each company's 33.33%, we must account for at least 35%."

Wang Haibin came up with the answer after a simple calculation.

"Let's go with 40%. It would be better if it could be 50%."

Chen Yunpeng has a more stable personality, and I feel that the more people he has, the safer he is.

However, 50% is more of an extravagant hope. Retroactively requires 30% of the shares. With Ms. Song’s strong negotiating attitude in the morning negotiation, it is impossible to get lower than retroactively.

Of course, she may also get angry and quit the investment game.

Fortunately, there is a retroactive guarantee. If the price is lower, let’s lower it. In short, let’s launch the game “Moore Manor” first.

But to make this request suddenly now seems to lack the spirit of contract.

After all, Sui Hui and Ms. Song both thought they were the only institution making investments.

Especially looking back, both Wang Haibin and Wei Zhen felt a little guilty. They were so kind to us, but they ended up playing tricks on each other.

"It's like falling in love with two people."

Wei Zhen played with the phone with a cracked screen, and his tone was a little low.

"As I said before, since we all choose to start a business, sometimes we have to be a little selfish."

Wang Haibin forced himself to calm down, and then returned to the room to prepare information.

"Lao Wang is right. At worst, we will work harder in the future and make more money so that we can pay more dividends back to the company."

Chen Yunpeng also patted Wei Zhen on the shoulder and comforted him.

…

Around 10 a.m. the next day, Wang Haibin estimated that both Professor Zeng and Ms. Song were awake.

Only then did he call them respectively, and "embarrassingly" revealed that there was another institution willing to invest.

The reactions from both parties were predictably unhappy.

Even a middle-aged professor who always seemed so good-tempered suddenly turned cold.

Ms. Song hung up the phone directly. Wang Haibin had no choice but to call again. It turned out that the female assistant named "Cong" answered the call.

People directly accused Taomi of not keeping his word and engaging in such a little trick as "the snipe and the clam fight against each other and the fishermen benefit".

Wang Haibin could only bow and apologize, saying that the other company was called Suhui Technology.

Not only is it a company in Guangzhou, but its boss is also a university professor and technology guru.

If we are really in trouble, can the three of us sit together first, just like friends, and not talk about cooperation, but just talk about the future and prospects of web games.

This reason is a bit like the hypocritical rhetoric of entrepreneurs.

Can two competing investment institutions sit together and talk about the future of the industry in a harmonious manner?

I'm afraid we might start arguing while chatting, which would just fall into Wang Haibin's intention of "selling at a price".

However, this situation is staged from beginning to end. From this point of view, the politicians may be more hypocritical.

Zeng Kun and Song Shiwei both hesitated for a while at first and did not immediately agree to Wang Haibin's request.

It wasn't until Wang Haibin started talking on the phone that the phone was full of good words, that both parties expressed their willingness to give Mr. Wang some face and just sit down for a while in the afternoon.

But Ms. Song requested that the chat could be done, but the location would be at CITIC Tower, and she was too lazy to run around.

This is in line with Ms. Song's "arrogant and noble" persona, but it just means that she has to go back to technology.

Therefore, Wang Haibin could only contact Professor Zeng again and ask him to drive to CITIC Tower.

"Mr. Wang."

Professor Zeng was silent for a moment, and a slightly older voice sounded in the receiver.

"We can't push ourselves too far over and over again. Do you think we are a small company, so we have repeatedly squeezed our bottom line?"

There was a hint of anger in Zeng Kun's calm tone.

"No, no."

Wang Haibin was really frightened.

Backdating is a "spare tire" to guarantee the bottom line. If they are really angry, it will probably turn out to be "all water in a bamboo basket".

"How about I discuss it with Ms. Song again?"

Wang Haibin quickly said: "Should we change the meeting venue to CUHK?"

"Need not."

Professor Zeng said as if he understood: "That will make things difficult for you, so why bother? Let Chen...Zhang Guangfeng go there in my place."

"Aren't you coming?"

Wang Haibin asked in surprise, if Mr. Zeng hadn't arrived, many decisions that needed to be made would not have been made on the spot.

"There are things at school that I can't spare in the afternoon."

Professor Zeng asked back: "If the time can be changed, then I can go there in person."

"That, that..."

Wang Haibin hesitated: "Let Guang Feng come over. I can call you to report anything."

Just kidding, I finally got this opportunity, can the three companies still get it together another day?

Regardless of Zhang Guangfeng, we all went to the club together as "comrades" and are about the same age, so it may be easier to communicate on some matters.

…

At around two o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Zhu arrived at the CITIC Building near Guangzhou East Railway Station on time.

Wang Haibin, Wei Zhen and Chen Yunpeng were already waiting at the door, acting as if they were the owners.

In fact, this round was indeed saved by them.

Chen Zhu got out of the car and walked over to say hello to them, then asked casually: "Ms. Song hasn't arrived yet?"

"No."

Wei Zhen shook his head and threw a Liqun stick.

Chen Zhu smiled and waved his hands, indicating that he did not smoke.

"Guangfeng, let me briefly introduce you to Ms. Song..."

Wang Haibin felt that it was necessary to give Chen Zhu some advice in order to avoid making Ms. Song unhappy and causing any disputes.

"oh?"

Chen Zhu thought it was interesting. It turns out that I still need help from others to introduce Sister Sweet.

"Ms. Song's family situation is very good."

Wang Haibin gestured: "I'm wearing Chanel, I'm wearing Cartier, and I'm carrying LV."
