Chapter 360 Bad Fate

Wang Siming is not as difficult to deal with as Wang Yan imagined.

Especially his ability to control his emotions is incredibly poor.

In business negotiations, everyone should have their own unique tricks. You can tell jokes and brag, but of course I can threaten to leave by flipping the table.

No matter who wins or loses, you must respond normally and you must not lose your composure.

In the end, Wang Siming was fine, his expression fell instantly, and he lost his temper in frustration.

"Fuck! We've been talking for more than a fucking week, and everything has been discussed. There's only one last question left. Now you tell me you don't want to play anymore? Who are you trying to scare?!"

"Mr. Wang, Mr. Wang!"

Mr. Shi hurriedly stopped him and persuaded him angrily: "Calm down, let's talk, let's talk!"

Wang Yan ignored Wang Siming at all and turned to look at Li Yixu: "Brother Xu, it's not that I don't give you face, right? What did you tell me back then?"

Li Yixu looked troubled.

The original deal was for 30 million in cash, but it was officially announced that it would be 80 million, and it would be paid immediately after signing the contract.

Now he suddenly changed his mind and delayed the settlement for 6 months, and only 20 million was settled, which is really unjustifiable.

However, Cat Panda was suddenly short of money. Wang Siming wanted to talk to Wang Yan and change the payment method to find him. Could he not help?

Li Yixu was caught in the middle and looked completely different from the outside.

While he was thinking about what to say, Wang Siming was persuaded by Mr. Shi again.

"Are you talking about nothing? I, Wang Siming, am shameless even if you don't give me such a small amount of face?! I just left my words here. On this condition, we can talk, but we can't talk and get out!"

After hearing this sentence, Mr. Shi's eyes widened in astonishment, and Li Yixu opened his mouth, completely dumbfounded.

Brother, what's going on? !

Why do people get so rough on you? !

Even Wang Yan was stunned for a moment.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Wang Yan would never have imagined that the son of the richest man would be so... indescribable.

In business negotiations, it is normal to fail to reach an agreement. Everything goes smoothly in at most two out of ten negotiations, and problems are bound to occur in the rest.

However, issues are basically equal to disagreements and not equal to quarrels.

Buying and selling cannot be done without benevolence and righteousness, which is the most important business principle that Chinese people pay attention to.

Wang Siming was rude directly. He obviously did not regard Wang Yan as an equal opponent and did not think highly of Wang Yan from the bottom of his heart.

Brother Fugui, would you get used to this?

His face was covered with frost, his temperament became as cold as the winter wind, and he stood up quickly.

He raised the wine glass in his hand and bowed to Li Yixu: "Thank you for your kindness. That's it for today."

Drink all the remaining wine in the cup.

In the rage, the taste of 96 Lafite became more and more complex, bitter, astringent, sour and sweet, and then a long-lost "ding" came in my mind.

Now was not the time to look at rewards. Wang Yan turned around and left without saying a word.

Brother Xizi immediately followed, making Li Yixu so worried that he sighed and strode after him.

"Master Wang, I'll give it to you."

Watching Wang Yan go out, Wang Siming sneered disdainfully, his expression still gloomy.

Mr. Shi was so anxious that his head was sweating. Although he didn't want to offend the prince, the matter was so important that he still endured the fear and spoke.

"Young Master Wang, I completely respect your personal attitude and final decision.

But sitting in this position, I must fulfill my duty and remind you realistically: Our platform really needs Wangting Entertainment!

Lingya can support a category, and the other anchors can fill one-third of the appearance area. Wang Shao... Wang Yan's official funds can greatly increase the turnover data.

If you want to raise funds, you really can’t do it without Wangting Entertainment..."

"I know!"

Wang Siming waved his hands impatiently, raised his right foot and stepped on the edge of the coffee table, and leaned his upper body back on the sofa.

"You will send the signed contract in two days. The 30 million will be paid in one lump sum. The guild's recharge cashback ratio will be increased by 2 points. The cooperation will not be delayed."

"ah?!"

Mr. Shi's eyes widened and he didn't know it at all.

So why are you suffering? !

Lose your temper and pay two more points. Are you rich and willful? !

"I just don't like that stupid thing!"

Wang Siming had a tigerish expression on his face and glared at the titular panda boss with a fierce look in his eyes.

"Spend some money to teach that stupid idiot a lesson, what can you do to me? You just have to sign obediently!

Don't mention that stupid thing in front of me from now on. It's so big that I don't even understand. What do you do for food? !

You can do it, but you can't do it! There are many people who want to take your place! "

This was not the first time that Mr. Shi had been sprayed, so his mood was pretty good.

What really made his heart palpitate was the sentence "Don't mention Wang Yan in front of me in the future."

Mr. Shi, who was as smart as a human being, immediately understood where the problem lay.

In recent times, whenever Wang Yan is mentioned, both himself and Li Yixu are full of praise.

The true appreciation in my heart is on the one hand, but the main purpose is to make Prince Wang take him seriously, repair the relationship with Wang Yan, and cooperate sincerely.

The result was counterproductive.

The reason for today's conflict is clearly there——

The prince was jealous.

On the one hand, the Internet is full of people calling for my husband, saying that I want to give birth to a monkey for you.

On the other hand, no one is optimistic about the prince's business vision and ability. Excluding those who are envious of his family background, the remaining voices are all doubts.

What about sensationalizing, what about being fucked by me, what about being a good dad...

Even those girls who want to be Mrs. Wang don't really recognize Mr. Wang's personal abilities.

Everyone gets angry.

When your heart is blocked, you praise another business genius every day. What's wrong, I haven't given you enough rice?

The compliments from Mr. Shi and others seriously aroused Prince Wang's resentment and the urge to do something else.

As a result, there was no arm-wrestling in the face-to-face fight today!

His image, temperament, and speech were all basically beaten down. Especially when the phrase "cooperation and making friends require fate" came out, it really disgusted Wang Siming to death.

The Chinese language is broad and profound. In many cases, a sentence with a specific meaning can be interpreted in any way.

Judging from the context at the time and past interactions, it was a very high-profile statement.

Wang Siming once took the initiative to call Wang Yan and extended an olive branch in the manner of a polite corporal.

The meaning is probably: I think you are okay, I will give you a chance to hang out with me.

In the end, Wang Yan ignored him and declined.

Then the little guy at the beginning became more and more successful, and recently he has gained a decisive position in the live broadcast industry. If he wants to develop his own platform, he even has to ask for help.

Is Wang Siming feeling uncomfortable?

It's inevitable, don't even think about it.

Then Wang Yan used one sentence to use his previous experience of "failed to make friends due to lack of fate" as a hammer and took the opportunity to hit Wang Siming. How can the eldest son not be disgusted?

The full meaning of that sentence in Wang Siming's ears was——

As for making friends, we are not destined to be together. As for cooperation, we are not sure yet. If you don't show your attitude to make me happy, it's very likely that we won't be able to cooperate.

That's too much!

I am a top-notch second-generation person, and I condescend to make friends with you. Are you pretending to be stupid? !

Wang Siming was almost furious at the time, but the breadth and depth of the Chinese language is reflected here.

The sentence itself didn't carry any thorns at all, and the person said it with a smile, as if they were chatting and joking, and there was no fault at all.

Under normal circumstances, the only way to retaliate is to hit back with a sharp attack, causing the opponent to suffer a heavy loss.

But where is it so easy?

Anyway, Prince Wang is not at that level, and he knows it well.

Then you can only hold it in.

After holding it in for a long time, the more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Then he told jokes and tried to make a big deal, but the "silly beep" refused to respond, and finally threatened to cancel the cooperation. Mr. Wang finally exploded.

It was only after I was happy that I realized that my family really lacked each other.

What to do?

Give me some more benefits and bring them back!

In Prince Wang's mind, if I scold you, you have to endure it. When the anger passes, I may compensate you depending on the situation.

Judging from past experience, no one really dares to fall out with Prince Yida.

Traveling thousands of miles just for money, who would have trouble with money? !

The logic seems to be okay, but after all, there are some people in this world who are unwilling to wrong themselves for money.

For example, Wang Yan.

What is money?

It's something you can just breathe, it's not worth mentioning.

Don't give me chicken soup with some small goals, you don't want to hear it.

However, Li Yixu could not understand Wang Yan's confidence and was still trying to use money to impress Wang Yan.

"Young Master Wang, Siming's temper is really bad. As the intermediary, I am deeply sorry. My brother can't forgive you today. I'll make up for it later."

But you really don’t need to be familiar with him. Let me tell you the bottom line: 30 million can be paid in one lump sum, which can be fully recovered from Cat Panda’s account.

We can't afford to have trouble with money, right? "

It was not convenient for Wang Yan to complain, but Wang Yunxi was not polite.

"Master Li, what's that thing in there? Who are you pretending to be insignificant when you change your mind just before signing the contract? Why can't our Wangting Entertainment survive without Cat and Bear?"

Although it was not Li Yixu's fault, Wang Yunxi's fierce confrontation still made Mr. Li's face burning.

Seeing that Wang Yan remained silent, with a mocking expression on his face and a distant smile, Li Yixu began to weigh the pros and cons.

He muttered for about two seconds, then gritted his teeth and poured out something solid.

“I really didn’t expect that Siming would explode directly, but looking back, I may know part of the reason.

Let me state in advance that I am not trying to find reasons for Wang Siming. There are indeed some off-site factors involved.

Cat Panda was launched in September, and it has been three months since it was launched, and it has been full of accidents.

Bugs appear on the platform every day, the interface is unfriendly, the gift system is not perfect, the operation ideas lack incentives for players, and less than half of the target anchors are poached...

It can be said that there are problems in all aspects.

We started off with a pair of king bombers, but today, we see that they are much worse than expected, which is really annoying.

The most uncomfortable thing is that Siming was seeking financing, but suddenly a thunderstorm occurred two days ago——

Part of Panda's operations involves using power for personal gain and secretly poaching corners of the platform.

A relatively minor problem that has been verified is the private sale of Panda Coins, using the early preferential policies to give excessive discounts to certain guilds, and then sharing the profits with the guilds privately.

There are also hidden rules for female anchors, those who receive black money from guilds and are treated with double standards, those who forcibly charge anchors advertising fees, and so on.

Seeing that daily activity, retention, conversion, recharge and other data are all declining, several financing institutions that were originally interested have now turned to wait and see.

If nothing else, it will be difficult to raise this money.

There is no other way now. Siming plans to sign a guarantee agreement with those institutions and add a repurchase commitment clause.

Do you understand what that means? "

Wang Yan is planning to go public on NASDAQ and cut off overseas leeks, so how could he not understand?

“It played as expected.”

Mr. Wang nodded calmly and asked the key question: "How much interest rate do you plan to give?"

Li Yixu looked around and hesitated to speak. After a moment, he gritted his teeth and spoke.

"The first round is used to support the valuation, with a target of 500 million to 1 billion, and an annual interest rate of 12%. It lasts for three years. When it expires, regardless of whether it can be listed on the market, the repurchase agreement will automatically start."

Wang Yan sneered disdainfully: "12%? It's not low. Unfortunately, VCs are not that easy to fool. There are so many potential projects on the market. Who has the patience to invest in a fixed-income project?"

Li Yixu nodded: "So we still need a lead investor."

Wang Yan asked abruptly: "So Mr. Wang plans to exchange Yida's resources for it?"

Li Yixu was stunned, surprised by Wang Yan's keenness and professionalism. The expression on his face at that moment revealed the truth.

He sighed: "Young Master Wang knows so much, I can't hide it from you... Siming does have that plan."

Wang Siming's entire calculation may be a bit convoluted to explain.

Stroke little by little.

First, there is the purpose of financing.

Normal financing is when a company lacks development funds, exchanges equity for cash, expands operations, and distributes future profits to investors.

The above is the normal way to play.

Another way is to cut leeks.

Financing is still needed, but the purpose is bragging rights.

Find an affiliated company, raise say 500 million, and only take a small part of the equity, say 20%.

In an instant, a company that might have been worth only 100 million was instantly valued at 2.5 billion by VCs.

what's next?

Let’s brag happily together and then look for the second round of financing.

At this time, it is still possible that he is a scapegoat, or he may actually be taken advantage of.

Anyway, just keep blowing it all the way until there is a successor or it goes public.

After three or four rounds, the valuation has been blown up to one or two billion. If someone takes over and directly acquires the company, everyone will be happy.

If not, A-shares are listed, investment institutions withdraw, and then shareholders cash out, it will still be perfect.

The worst thing is that you can’t do both, what should you do?

Let's all pay for it together.

Investment institutions that are not half-brained definitely don’t want to lose money, so what should we do?

Brag cautiously, patiently select beautiful heifers, and look for unicorns that can be speculated to invest.

If the company's data and prospects are not good, and you want to recruit people to brag about it, you have to take a wrong approach -

Buyback Terms.

Agreement: At a certain time in a certain year, the company will buy back the equity I invested at a price that has been negotiated in advance.

It is equivalent to a protective cover to reassure investment institutions.

Under normal circumstances, repurchase agreements in the field of investment and financing are profit sharing, but the guaranteed floor price is low.

The following is an example -

With a normal listing, investment institutions can withdraw according to the market price and walk away with huge profits.

After failing to go public, the investment institutions were repurchased and received the money they invested that year at an annual interest rate of about 4%, which is just as much as the bank deposit interest rate.

If the project is relatively good, it may even be possible to repurchase it at the original price without paying a penny more in interest.

You can talk about everything.

But if the project is not good enough, the guaranteed price will be raised accordingly.

The risks people take are greater, which is reasonable.

Wang Siming's plan is to give a fixed minimum price. Regardless of whether there is a takeover or how high the market value is, the shill for the first round of financing will only have a fixed income of 12%.

What does such a special clause mean?

While the outside world has concerns, Wang Siming himself is confident.

So how to boost the confidence of the outside world?

Find a lead investor with enough weight.

Either it is top investors like Xu Xin and Zhang Lei, or Internet hooligans like Alibaba and Tongxun. No matter who comes forward to endorse, investors will flock to it.

Just looking at the internal problems Li Yixu revealed about Cat Panda, those top investors would definitely look down on it.

So what can Prince Wang do?

Use the background at home to change it!

After thinking about this, Wang Yan had completely confirmed what Wang Siming wanted to do.

I just read the book "33 Days to Prevent Financial Fraud" some time ago. The content was a bit repetitive, but the cases were interesting.

By combining his professional knowledge in the two fields of finance and psychology, Wang Siming's abacus suddenly became clear.

From the very beginning, Mao Xiong was established to harvest leeks on the market.

There is one thing to say, Prince Wang's vision is indeed not bad, and he did not stand in such a high position in vain.

In the live broadcast industry, at least two to three listed companies will inevitably be born.

At this moment, the industry is still in its infancy, and there is not much competition pressure. It can be said to be the best time to enter the market.

Doing well enough, going public in three years, and earning billions is not a dream.

The problem is, "good enough" is a broad concept that encompasses too much.

At the very least, there should be someone to help and no one to cause trouble, right?

Thinking of this, Mr. Wang's eyes suddenly lit up.

Prince Wang, come and let me help you!

With a deep smile, Wang Yan nodded to Li Yixu: "Brother Xu, thank you for reminding me, but I don't plan to take advantage of the 12% advantage. It's boring."

The reason why Li Yixu mentioned this was mainly to show his goodwill and to give Wang Yan a chance to enter the scene.

In Young Master Li's eyes, it was a sure-profit deal.

With Yida at the back, no matter how bad Panda does, the investment will be profitable.

The three-year fixed income with an annual interest rate of 12% is top-notch among asset securitization projects.

You know, the higher the interest rate, the greater the risk. The bank's guaranteed financial management is basically about 6% per annum, which is double the difference.

Li Yixu was not disappointed, as long as he expressed his intention.

As long as Wang Yan appreciates it, then today's conflict will be considered as getting rid of him.

Finally, he shook hands with Wang Yan and said: "You can think about cooperation after you go back. People belong to others and money belongs to money. Don't get angry with yourself."

"Okay, I'll think about it again."

Wang Yan said perfunctorily and watched the other party go back to the room.

Wang Yunxi immediately asked: "Xiaoyan, if it is really a one-time payment, will we sign it or not?"

"Haha!" Mr. Wang sneered, "Am I the kind of person who gets slapped on the left cheek and then slaps the other cheek on top?"

"What should we do?"

Wang Yunxi felt a little worried.

"The money is second best, but even if we don't cooperate, we can't do anything to Wang Siming. He has to hold back his tone no matter what..."

"Hold it in?"

Wang Yan smiled and turned towards the door without explaining anything.

I have to hold it in.

Hold back a big move.

To be the mastermind behind the live broadcast industry, you must be both kind and powerful.

I was in need of a powerful monkey, and you came to my door. Isn’t it a rare fate?

Bad fate.

Adjust the status and try to update as much as possible in December. Thank you all for your unwavering support, I love you.
