Rebirth: Dominate The World, Starting From The School Network

Chapter 139 Make Things Clear And Compromise With Each Other

"Director Lu, if you can't give us a reasonable explanation, then we really need to think carefully about this financing." Huang Xing from Shenzhen Venture Capital said.

Lu Yi's words just now shocked him.

The capital of Shenzhen Venture Capital cannot compare with top international investment banks such as Goldman Sachs and Morgan, just like the difference between a small fish and a blue whale.

Investing in future technology yourself is to be optimistic about the huge returns that will come after the future technology is listed on the market.

But if Future Technology really has a big internal problem now, and the founders all cash out and run away, leaving an empty shell and a mess, then the tens of millions and hundreds of millions they invested will really be in vain.

Top investment banks such as Goldman Sachs and Morgan can afford the losses, but Shenzhen Venture Capital will be severely damaged.

Even after Lu Yi said those words, the idea of ​​early divestment came to his mind.

Lu Yi also knew that what he just said would definitely cause these people to have wild thoughts.

"You don't need to think wildly. The current operating situation of Future Technology is very healthy and there are no problems. I am transferring 10% of the equity to you, not to cash out and run away." Lu Yi said.

But obviously, this reason cannot yet dispel everyone's doubts.

Xiong Xiaoge of Sequoia Capital said: "Mr. Lu, since the operation of Future Technology is very healthy and there are no problems, why do you want to transfer the equity to cash out? Please give us a clear reason instead of being vague and secretive. .”

Lu Yi said: "Well, in this case, then I will give you a clear reason, because I want to enter the field of information and communication technology (ICT). If you promise me to invest the company's money in the field of ICT, then I You can directly raise 20% of the equity instead of transferring it.

There is no way to hide this matter.

After all, there were a lot of eyes staring at him.

I have made it clear now that I am ready to explore other industries. Do you want to follow?

Although Future Technology's products are involved in different fields, these fields all belong to the Internet industry.

But now he wants to enter the ICT industry, which is completely different from the Internet.

so.

Although Lu Yi really didn't want these people to get more benefits from him, he believed that even if he made his words clear, these people would never be willing to play in the ICT industry with him.

No.

The person in charge of IDG jumped right in.

"What? The company is entering the ICT field? With all due respect, Mr. Lu, there is no doubt that you have made great achievements in the Internet field, but I don't think you can still achieve the same achievements in the ICT field."

Others echoed.

"Seller, Mr. Lu, your idea is so crazy! We all admit that you are an Internet genius, but there is no way you can be successful in the ict field."

"I don't agree with the company entering the ict industry. If you insist on going to the ict industry, then I will have no choice but to divest."

Everyone present was shocked by Lu Yi's words.

The response was overwhelming.

If Lu Yi wants to enter other areas of the Internet to play, they will never do this.

Because Lu Yi has never done it before.

Jisou search engine is the best example.

At that time, they were also worried that Lu Yi had messed up, but it turned out that Jisou search engine was successful.

But things are different now.

Lu Yi is planning to play across industries, and it is also a very money-burning ICT industry. They have no confidence in Lu Yi at all.

Lu Yi shrugged and said: "So, I will transfer 10% of my equity to you. I will spend my own money to play ict, and you will not suffer any losses.

All right.

At this time, they finally understood why Lu Yi wanted to divide 20% of the equity into two different ways to sell it.

They thought Lu Yi wanted to cash out before the IPO, but it turned out that he wanted to use the money to play in the ICT industry.

The ICT industry burns more money than the Internet, and even if it burns billions or tens of billions, it may not make a splash.

Let them use their own money to gamble with Lu Yi in the ICT industry. They will never do it.

They would rather invest money in Ericsson, Huachang, and IBM than bet on Lu Yi.

"So everyone, now I want to transfer 10% of the equity to you. Do you agree?" Lu Yi asked with his legs crossed.

I cash out and use my own money to play, you can't stop me.

Paulson, Morgan and others looked at each other, exchanged opinions, and finally formed a consensus.

Paulson said: "Okay, Mr. Lu, we agree with your proposal. But here, we have a proposal, and you must agree.

"Say." Lu Yi said.

0...Please give me flowers...0

Paulson said: "In the beginning, the investors agreed with your opinion and signed the "Shareholders Agreement", proposing that there would be no board of directors and supervisory board for the time being. But now that there are more and more shareholders of Future Technology, we think it is necessary to establish one. The Board of Directors and the Supervisory Board.”

In fact, according to the future technology situation, the establishment of a board of directors and a board of supervisors should have been long ago.

However, at the very beginning, three angel-round institutions, Softwin, IDG and Shenzhen Venture Capital, signed a "Shareholders Agreement" with Lu Yi and agreed to Lu Yi's decision not to have a board of directors and a board of supervisors for the time being.

Although new institutions have joined later, and there are more and more shareholders of Future Technology, the accounting department is transparent because the Financial Department of Future Technology sends financial lists to each shareholder every month.

so.

0

Until now, they have not taken the initiative to establish a board of directors and a board of supervisors.

But today, Lu Yi announced that he was going to enter the ICT industry, which really scared them.

You can use your own money to play with it, but it must not affect our interests.

This incident also gave them a wake-up call.

That's because Lu Yi has too much power.

A board of directors and a board of supervisors must be established to supervise the company's operations.

if not.

One day Lu Yi suddenly had a brain attack and decided to enter a certain industry, but they had no idea about it. Once they knew it, it would be a foregone conclusion, so what's the use?

The board of directors and the board of supervisors can play the role of supervision and suggestions.

Although they know that even voting cannot stop Lu Yi's decision.

Because Lu Yi holds the company's veto power, he has absolute control over the company.

But at least, they can know the news in advance.

If Lu Yi wants to enter a new field, he needs to hold a meeting to discuss it!

Because the board of directors is the company’s highest decision-making body!

"Can!"

Lu Yi agreed directly without even thinking about it.

after all.

According to the current situation of the company, in fact, when conducting angel round financing, it is time to establish a board of directors and a board of supervisors, because the company has more than one shareholder.

"But the condition is that I need the right to nominate more than half of the company's board of directors seats. This is non-negotiable." Lu Yi added.

The heads of the institutions present discussed and finally agreed to Lu Yi's request and decided to set up 13 director seats. .
