"… I'll invest five million first."
This sentence was said casually, as if he had spent 500 yuan to buy a bicycle instead of 5 million yuan to invest in a company.
This was the first time Lu Zhou saw such a willful investor.
He did not look at BP, he did not look at PowerPoint, he did not even ask about the business model. He just threw five million without even frowning …
The things that Mrs. Yang taught him were completely useless.
Once again, poverty limited his imagination.
This Liu Wanshan was also a swift and decisive person. He couldn't even be bothered to wait for a day. He casually waved his hand and signaled his secretary to come over. He took Lu Zhou to the hotel manager's office to borrow a computer and printer. He then printed out the letter of intent on the spot.
This kind of contract had a template. He just had to follow the template and modify the key parts.
According to the agreement between Lu Zhou and CEO Liu, Zhongshan New Materials would invest five million yuan in Campus Assistant and obtain 20% of Campus Assistant's shares.
Of course, the five million yuan would not be transferred in one go.
According to the usual financing practice, the two parties would first sign an equity transfer agreement. Then, Zhongshan New Materials would transfer the first half million yuan to Campus Assistant's account. Then, the first half of each month would be paid in ten installments.
This method of paying in installments was mainly to protect the rights and interests of investors. It prevented entrepreneurs from abusing investment funds or causing legal problems due to extreme behavior.
However, on the other hand, if the investor refused to fulfill the financing agreement in the future and delayed the payment for more than a month, it would be a so-called "withdrawal". The investor's equity would also be taken back. As for the money that had already been invested, it would depend on the startup's integrity and ability to pay.
Of course, this was usually not the case.
The letter of intent was signed tonight. As for the specific agreement on equity change and financing, it would be completed within three days. Zhongshan New Materials would then send someone to the school to sign the contract.
The five million yuan investment letter of intent was signed just like that.
Lu Zhou did some calculations. It had only been less than an hour since the start of the battle …
Because the transfer was done through the VIP channel, he quickly received a remittance text from ICBC.
A total of five hundred thousand yuan.
Lu Zhou put the pen on the table and could not help but ask, "Are you not going to look at our business plan?"
Liu Wanshan laughed and waved his hand. "What's the point of looking at that thing? BP？ PPT？ Those are all tricks to fool people. How can I not know how to do it after so many years of doing business? No matter how good the project is, it will still fail in the hands of trash. I don't invest in projects, I'm just an investor. I think you're a talent with investment value. Of course, I can't rule out the possibility that I'm wrong. But it doesn't matter. Even if I'm wrong, I can just withdraw my investment. How can I lose a car? "
Lu Zhou was speechless for a while after hearing this big shot's willful answer.
Perhaps this was the "face" of the rich?
He thought about how Fat Wu and Yuan Liwei had been running around for half a month for the two million yuan, but no investment institution was optimistic about their project. They even threw BP into the trash can in front of them. As for Lu Zhou, they just casually chatted for a while, and the five million yuan was already settled …
For a moment, Lu Zhou had an indescribable feeling in his heart.
Then, Liu Wanshan chatted with Professor Lee for a while before he went somewhere else. After all, the general manager of Jinling Construction Material was still standing in the hall. At this celebratory moment, he couldn't just leave his partner aside.
Professor Li Rongen looked at Lu Zhou, who was still immersed in the five million yuan. He smiled and said, "What, surprised?"
Lu Zhou nodded slowly.
"It's only five million, what's so surprising about it?" Professor Li Rongen smiled and said, "If you help me with two more projects, not to mention the angel round, believe it or not, I can also help you with the A round."
Professor Lee Yong-eun looked at Lu Zhou's disbelieving face and did not say anything. He just smiled and went somewhere else.
The entire celebration banquet was filled with delicacies, but Lu Zhou did not taste anything.
The project that they had been working on for a year finally produced results. Everyone was so happy that they forgot everything else. Whether it was the researchers or the entrepreneurs and company executives at the next table, everyone frequently toasted each other and celebrated.
Several research monks and PhD students in the project team took turns toasting. Lu Zhou, who was not used to this kind of banquet, was a little dizzy after a few rounds.
Before, Lu Zhou always thought that his alcohol tolerance was good. However, he realized that it was because the other three animals in his dorm were too weak. Every time Liu Rui took a break, the others would not be able to drink anymore. This gave him the illusion that he had a high alcohol tolerance.
Fortunately, he was not the first one to fall.
Brother Qian, whose face was red from drinking, slumped on the table.
Seeing that one person had already taken a break, everyone calmed down a little.
The party didn't disperse until eight o 'clock.
After the banquet, Chairman Liu sent two drivers to send Lu Zhou and the others back to school.
Liu Bo said goodbye to Lu Zhou and carried the drunk Brother Qian back to the dorm.
Lu Zhou walked alone on the path of the parasol tree. He felt the cold night breeze and listened to the faint singing from the stadium. Lu Zhou's drunkenness finally dissipated a little.
He stood under the parasol tree for a while. He shook his head and took out his phone from his pocket. He then called Fat Wu.
"Hello? What's up? "
The other end of the phone was very noisy. It sounded like someone was at the subway station.
Lu Zhou was ashamed. At the critical moment of the "Twelve Arhats becoming Seven Calabash Brothers", the two generals were working hard, and there was also a programmer who stayed up all night. On the other hand, the founder was slacking off on his own project and did not contribute to the team at all.
However …
It seemed like he was the MVP.
"It's done."
When Fat Wu heard Lu Zhou's words, he asked, "What's done?"
"Zhongshan New Materials had invested 5 million RMB in us."
The other end of the phone was dead silent.
After a while, Fat Wu coughed.
"How much? It was a bit noisy … I didn't hear it clearly. "
"Five million."
Fat Wu sucked in a cold breath.
Five million yuan!
To be able to fuse five million Angel Wheels meant that he had met a benefactor.
According to their original plan, it would be considered good if they could fuse two million Angel Wheels. They planned to spend 200,000 yuan a month on promotion and reach six million users by next summer vacation. Then, they would start the second round and fool venture capital and funds …
In the end, they reached five million yuan.
Lu Zhou coughed and broke the silence, "Say something, I'm a bit embarrassed if you don't say anything."
Leaning against a pillar in the subway station, Fatty Wu stretched out his trembling fingers and took out a cigarette. At this time, Fatty Wu noticed the non-smoking sign and stuffed the cigarette box back into his pocket. He laughed dryly and said, "What did you say? I don't want to say anything, I just want to find a place to smoke and calm down. "
Lu Zhou: "Where's Yuan Liwei?"
Fat Wu: "I split up with him, he should be outside right now … I'll call him and tell him to go back to school. Oh yeah, did you sign the contract? Or is it just a letter of intent? "
Lu Zhou took a deep breath and said, "It's a letter of intent, but the other party is very sincere. I've already received 500,000 yuan in advance. The contract will be officially signed in three days. There's a meeting tomorrow night, help me borrow a classroom. "
Fat Wu controlled his breathing and said, "Okay, do you want me to notify the group?"
"I'll do it," said Lu Zhou. He paused for a second and said, "It's more dignified to make a phone call."
Lu Zhou took the letter of intent and went straight back to his dorm. On the way back, he called Yuan Liwei, Rong Hai … and his friends from the Campus Assistant Club. He congratulated each other and told them about the meeting tomorrow.
Five million yuan in financing.
What did this mean for a group of students with entrepreneurial dreams?
It meant the entire world …
In a sense, Lu Zhou felt like he had changed the lives of at least eight people.
He didn't know if this was a good thing or not. If it wasn't for him, maybe their university life would have been different.
