When Rao Zhenghai left the Lida Building and returned to the hotel, he was still in a daze.
Back then, when he was asked to use Sheng Hai's funds to invest in a mere internet celebrity's company, he was extremely against it.
However, the higher-ups were too determined and more or less revealed to him that the owner of Tianguang Brokerage, Chen Guang, was an extraordinary person. It would be a miracle if he could be roped in with money.
Otherwise, the price he would have to pay would be unimaginably heavy. At the very least, he would have to take out power that was close to the Hall of Treasure to satisfy him.
At that time, Rao Zhenghai was shocked and finally agreed to this seemingly unreasonable request.
He felt sorry for himself. Other people who played with the internet celebrity economy were actually playing with capital bubbles.
They would easily blow up the bubble, but in reality, the amount of money that was actually taken out might not be that much. It might not even be their own money.
Who would be like him, taking out such a huge amount of real money to give money to others?
Before coming here, he had also done a very detailed assessment of Chen Guang's company.
It was undeniable that although Tianguang Brokerage had only been established for less than half a year, and they were always doing things that were unreliable, their profitability was indeed terrifying.
It was indeed a miracle that this company could accomplish such a feat with such a small size.
Chen Guang himself was considered a genius in the business world. Every time people thought that he was going to lose money, he ended up making a lot of money.
It was said that every time he did an event, he would say to the public that he didn't want to make money and that he didn't want to make money at all. However, he didn't lack money.
Just based on the terrifying profitability of Tianguang Brokerage, the company's valuation was indeed much higher than its cash flow.
From the professional perspective of Rao Zhenghai and his team, a valuation of 2 billion to 3 billion was acceptable. If it was more than 3 billion, anyone who wanted to invest in it would be a fool with too much money.
However, even if he was valued at two billion and invested in cash, he would have to sign a VAM agreement that would make at least eight hundred million to one billion in five years. If he couldn't achieve the profit target, Chen Guang would have to pay for it out of his own pocket or buy back the shares.
That was the normal value of Tianguang Brokerage.
It was undeniable that Chen Guang's ability to make money was very strong, but his company had only been established for a short period of time. Other than hosting events, his profit model was not clear enough, and he did not have any ability to make money.
Apart from Chen Guang himself, there was nothing else.
The reason why Tianguang Agency could develop so smoothly was largely due to Chen Guang's individual performance and luck.
There were still many uncertainties in this start-up company, which indirectly pulled down its market value.
Therefore, in Rao Zhenghai's heart, his valuation and asking price were no different from that of a child giving away money.
But he was rejected!
After Chen Guang sent Rao Zhenghai off, he called Yue Hong and a few other middle-level leaders to his office and told them about what he had just discussed with Rao Zhenghai.
As Tang Xiaokai's confidant in the Tang Jie Foundation, Yue Hong quickly guessed the truth.
Although he did not know the reason, there was no doubt that someone in Beijing wanted to give him money for free.
This time, it was even more outrageous than the last time. The Tang Jie Fund had paid for the bill the last time, but this time, the Rising Sea Insurance Company, which was in charge of paying the bill, had directly increased the amount by nearly ten times!
'Is our Mr. Chen the descendant of the previous emperor?
'Is this a recruitment fee?
'This is ridiculous!'
However, Yue Hong did not find it strange that Chen Guang did not immediately agree to Rising Sea's Mr. Rao's request. There must be some reasons that people of his level did not have the right to know.
However, Fang Tianyu, Lu Xiaoliang, and Su Li were completely dumbfounded.
Rao Zhenghai, who was giving the money, might not be fully awake and was sleepwalking. Or perhaps, there was something wrong with his brain.
'However, our Mr. Chen is not inferior to Mr. Rao at all. They're on par with each other!'
"Mr. Chen, you can't do that! I … I don't understand! "
Fang Tianyu was dumbfounded.
Lu Xiaoliang nearly jumped up. "Mr. Chen, I know I shouldn't say much about this, but I still don't understand. Rising Sea only wants five percent of the shares, but they're giving one billion in cash. If this is true, there's no reason for them to reject it!"
Su Li said from his professional point of view, "Although our company's financial situation is very good now, and there are no signs of needing financing in the short term, it's never a bad thing to have more money. Plus, it's one billion! Oh my god. "
Su Li, who usually did not speak nonsense, could not help but add "oh my god" this time. Although he looked calm on the surface, he could not hide his emotions.
Chen Guang had wanted to ask for their opinions, but seeing this, he knew that there was no need for him to say anything.
They could not give the answer they wanted. In fact, they could not even understand the hesitation in their hearts.
'I should have asked someone else.'
They did not know that he was once the director of the General Bureau and could not consider the whole picture.
"Forget it, don't worry about this first. How's the discussion for the play going?"
Chen Guang had a general understanding of the live broadcast of the play and the sponsorship. The live broadcast was still Bamboo, but the live broadcast on TV had become the Mango Channel that he used to dislike.
On account of their high price and willingness to pay, since the contract had already been signed, he would forget about it this time.
The sponsorship was not as good as he had imagined. He only managed to get a total of two companies, which did not even add up to ten million.
On one hand, it was not convenient to insert advertisements in the live broadcast of the play. On the other hand, the frequency of his activities was a little too high.
The bosses were almost out of money. Now that his net worth had reached a certain level, sometimes, he would rather not accept the offer than to lower the price easily.
In layman's terms, lowering the price would harm his status, which was not beneficial to his long-term profits.
Sitting in the car, Chen Guang racked his brains. Who should he talk to about this?
He also wanted Rao Zhenghai's money. That was one billion. He had no qualms about taking it.
However, he also felt uncomfortable. He always felt that the value of his company in the future might not only stop at the level of 20 billion yuan. In this way, it was still possible that Rao Zhenghai and his Rising Sea Insurance Company would make money, so he was not very happy.
He could not help but complain in his heart, 'These old men are so unreasonable. If they want to give me money, they can just give me money. Why do they have to target my shares?'
Although five percent was not much, no matter how small a mosquito's leg was, it was still meat. In the future, the mosquito would mutate and become a huge steak.
Moreover, once he took the money, it meant that he had accepted their goodwill, and he would be tied to these people again.
He was really quite annoying.
However, it seemed like as long as Xin Qin and Wu Miaowan were still in the Guangding General Administration, he would not be able to escape as the retired general director.
No matter how resolute he sounded, if the two little lolis were in trouble, could he not care less?
It seemed like it did not matter whether he took the money or not.
Unknowingly, as his thoughts ran wild, he thought of a rather reliable candidate.
She was an expert, knew the ways of doing business, and knew his special identity. Most importantly, he had not seen her for some time, and he missed her from time to time.
Yes, the candidate was Lu Fei.
As soon as he called, he was elated. What a coincidence. Lu Fei had just returned from the neighboring Wutuo Town yesterday, and she was about to look for him.
After meeting Lu Fei at a cafe, Chen Guang went out excitedly.
When he arrived at the private room, Lu Fei was already waiting for him inside.
"I saw that you usually drink tea, so I didn't order coffee for you. When I just came over, I brought a packet of Longjing tea from my father's friend. You can drink it yourself."
Chen Guang took the tea box from Lu Fei, carefully grabbed a small handful from inside, and threw it into the Tongtian Holy Grail. Then, he happily made a pot of water. His nose was full of the fresh and tranquil tea fragrance.
"Longjing tea is such a good thing. What do you mean by drink it yourself? I even drink Humao Feng tea!"
"Didn't you just call to ask me something? Say it. "
Lu Fei took a sip of coffee, rested her chin on her elbow, and looked at Chen Guang with her head tilted.
Chen Guang was not the same as the people in her circle.
Just like this Longjing tea, it was a good thing, but she would never take it out of her house for others to drink. Other people might have their own channels to get it, but they would never be like Chen Guang. He was clearly worth hundreds of millions and had a high position of power, but he still looked so precious and happy.
Lu Fei felt that Chen Guang was not pretending to be happy to please her, but he was really happy.
As for others, even Zhong Bai and Wang Qing, who had a particularly good relationship with each other, would never be happy for such a small thing. They were used to that kind of extravagant life.
Even if they also showed such cheerful expressions, it was most likely to be to make her happy.
Lu Fei felt that Chen Guang was particularly real, but at the same time, particularly mysterious.
His driving skills were the first thing that attracted her, but after knowing him for a long time, Lu Fei found that Chen Guang seemed to be omnipotent. Later, she learned that he was a living magician in his previous life.
His entire body was filled with a sense of mystery and indescribable charm.
But the rarest thing about him was that no matter how his status changed, he maintained a rare heart.
You wouldn't be able to find such a man even if you searched for a lantern.
"Why are you distracted? I'm done! "
Chen Guang patted her on the shoulder.
Lu Fei came back to her senses, ran her fingers through her hair in embarrassment, and grinned. "I'm sorry, I was fascinated by you."
Chen Guang: "…"
I'll give you 118 points for this reason of being in a daze!
The full score is 100 points, and the extra 18 points will be divided into three sixes.
He repeated it to Lu Fei again.
This time, Lu Fei listened carefully.
She was not in a hurry to answer Chen Guang, but used her fingers to play with the spoon in the coffee cup.
Chen Guang did not rush her, and blew on his tea.
Five minutes passed.
Ten minutes passed.
Fifteen minutes …
Okay, almost.
Lu Fei suddenly looked up at Chen Guang. "I'll take it."
Chen Guang nodded. "Okay!"
