The food is delicious.
Sun Dasheng ate a bit more.
His eating manners made Shen Hui's heart sink even more.
This... alright, the man is here to eat.
No more expectations then.
The bank manager's face didn't look too pleased either.
This person seemed not to understand the rules, didn't drink, and didn't touch the female employee brought to accompany him. Does this look like someone who wants to discuss business?
Admittedly, there are quite a few top beauties in the bank.
To secure tonight's cooperation, the bank manager didn't hesitate to bring out the branch's top beauty, Yan Qianqian, and placed her beside Sun Dasheng, pouring tea and serving wine for him.
Unfortunately, the other party didn't seem to care at all.
Just focused on eating and drinking.
Yan Qianqian felt slightly relieved looking at the well-behaved man beside her.
She was reluctant to do the task assigned by her boss.
But he was the boss and usually took good care of her.
Having just a few years in the bank, she had been moved from the most monotonous counter work to the relaxing investment and wealth management department.
So, she finally agreed to the appointment.
However, tonight was not only beyond her boss's expectations but also beyond her own.
Unexpectedly, the man in front of her turned out to be so proper.
If the currently chow-down Sun Dasheng knew her thoughts, he'd probably laugh his head off.
After eating and drinking his fill, he wiped his mouth.
Sun Dasheng stood up.
Everyone at the table looked at him.
Some were surprised, some were displeased.
"President Sun, is there something urgent?" After all, they were all seasoned players; despite their displeasure, their facial expressions were well managed.
After all, the best actors are in government departments.
Look at this performance, completely seamless acting.
Swearing inside, smiling on the outside.
Sun Dasheng laughed as he walked to Shen Hui, stretching his hand out in Shen Hui's surprised gaze, "I've done my homework on your company before coming, there's nothing much to say at the dinner table, I came to see what kind of person President Shen is to decide whether to invest.
Now it seems, President Shen, you remain calm in critical moments, you're someone who can achieve great things.
I'm happy to invest in a person like you, so let's hope for a pleasant cooperation."
Huh?
What's he talking about?
Even though Shen Hui had seen many big occasions.
But today's act by the other party was still beyond his experience.
He never expected today's cooperation to succeed.
Especially the other party didn't speak a word at the table, didn't engage in any topic, just focused on eating silently.
More like a hungry ghost who hasn't eaten in days than an investor assessing an investment?
But such a hungry ghost, the first thing after eating was: pleasant cooperation.
Could he not be confused?
Ginger's still spicier with age; the bank manager reacted quickly and promptly reminded, "Little Shen, hurry and shake hands with President Sun."
"Oh, oh, President Sun, sorry for the oversight." Shen Hui quickly stood up and grasped the other's hand, using both hands to show his excitement, holding it tightly.
Just when he was about to speak, the bank manager spoke again: "Since we've reached a preliminary intention, let's change locations for a good talk, it's too chaotic here."
"Alright then, manager you can set the place."
Sun Dasheng didn't mind this at all.
Tonight's second session.
Was in a tea room.
Called a tea room, but it had massage and pedicure services too.
And it was much more upscale than those clubs.
The upscale meant more than just décor.
It was also because there were very few people, offering strong privacy.
The service staff were very qualified, whether in terms of appearance, knowledge, or skills.
The second session left with only three people.
Everyone else was sent home.
Yan Qianqian felt a bit reluctant to leave.
Brought her here reluctantly, unexpectedly felt a bit unwilling to leave, it's quite a strange thing.
She kept looking at Sun Dasheng, in the end even secretly asked for his WeChat.
The beautiful woman naturally had a priority friend spot in Sun Dasheng's circle.
Tea room.
The three drank tea, listened to music, and had foot baths.
Chatting and laughing.
But talking about some fun life stories.
And some dirty jokes.
Arranged the projects.
Asked for a quiet room.
Began formal negotiations on the investment matter.
Currently, Weima is valued at 17 billion.
Sun Dasheng accepted this.
Now the question is: How much more funding is needed to revitalize this mess?
Shen Hui gave a number without thinking: at least 10 billion.
This number was arrived at after many nights of review by him and his colleagues post-bankruptcy.
After speaking, he looked at Sun Dasheng in front of him with great anticipation.
He was afraid that the other party would be intimidated by this figure.
Although he had learned from the bank manager beforehand, that the person in front had enough financial resources.
But financial resources do not equate to investment.
No one would invest all their life's savings into a project with unknown returns.
He mentioned this figure, not expecting the other party to cover it all.
As long as the other party could contribute a portion, even a small part, he could use this contract to 'persuade' other investment companies.
The scene quieted down.
Only the sound of Sun Dasheng's fingers tapping on the table could be heard.
The tapping sound was like a heavy hammer, pounding on Shen Hui's heart.
Just as he was almost unable to bear it, the other party spoke: "If I cover it all, how much equity can you give me?"
"What did you say?" Shen Hui's voice was somewhat dry.
He immediately realized his retort was impolite and quickly amended, "You mean, you're willing to cover this entire ten-billion gap?"
"That's what I mean." Sun Dasheng nodded, indicating he didn't mishear.
The bank manager on the side leisurely drank his tea without giving an opinion.
Because his task was already complete.
But when he heard Sun Dasheng say he'd foot the entire ten billion bill, he was still surprised, quickly taking another sip to cover his shock.
"Xiao Shen, since President Sun has asked like this, just answer him honestly. How much equity can your company offer?"
These words contained subtlety.
It must be noted that directly purchasing equity from shareholders and obtaining it through financing are two different things.
Buying equity means a shareholder reshuffle; many occupying positions without doing much could be cleared out.
To be replaced by more capable ones.
Ah...
Yes!
Why not take this opportunity to kick out the disagreeable shareholders in the company?
The bank manager's words opened a new line of thinking for Shen Hui.
Not that he wasn't aware of such maneuvers.
Such operations are commonplace in startups.
It's just that he had been busy seeking financing recently and hadn't thought someone would be willing to shell out a billion in one go.
So he hadn't considered it in that direction.
"Indeed, some shareholders want to exit, but this matter can't be handled by me personally, would need to trouble you, bank manager, to step in." Shen Hui poured him a cup of tea.
"Haha... we're all on the same side, such a small matter, don't mention trouble, we'll have the bank handle it.
Just as some of your company's shareholders still owe loans from our bank.
At that time, just press them a bit, and they'll likely loosen up."
"Then I'll leave it to you, bank manager."
"President Sun, how do you feel?" Shen Hui didn't even notice that he unconsciously addressed Sun Dasheng with respect.
"Sure, I'm not in a hurry, once the negotiations are done, the equity transfer agreement can be signed directly at our company.
Bank manager, you know our company's location, right?"
"Yes, yes... alright, let's do it this way."
With the matter settled, everyone was pleased.
To start the next project.
A massage, to relax and loosen up.
After the massage, everyone felt much more refreshed.
Then they each departed.
He didn't wait long.
The second week, at the beginning of October.
Starlight Building rooftop.
Keno Capital.
Seeing off the last group of people.
Investment department manager Wang Hai arrived at the office to report:
"Director Sun, we have acquired 58.82% of Weima Automobile's shares, at a cost of a full ten billion.
Here are the investment documents.
Please sign, and once we've completed the payment, these contracts will take effect."
"Alright! Give it to me." Sun Dasheng took the thick stack of documents.
Swipe, swipe, swipe...
After signing.
Weima Automobile, once a pioneer of new energy vehicles.
Will it be able to shine again?
Sun Dasheng didn't know.
But he did know, this would not be a loss.
Because he's not like ordinary investors.
He has a system.
Even if there's loss and a need for bankruptcy restructuring again.
He can still gain abundant system experience.
And because of this major strategic investment by Keno Capital.
It quickly hit the news hot list, and in a very forward position.
Sun Dasheng, an unknown name, suddenly appeared in the public eye.
Because he is the head of this investment company.
Online, he's called: Dumb with lots of money!
