I'm in the county town, and you say I'm a big shot?

Chapter 138 "You really have a friend named Bai Ou?!"

"I made this from stock and futures trading," Fang Qingye said slowly. This was the first sentence he had said since the morning negotiations.

"If necessary, I can provide you with the operation records of my account."

"Oh, please don't mind." Lu Di said quickly, "Mr. Fang, since we are cooperating, we need to understand each other."

"understand,"

"Mr. Lu, can we start formal negotiations now?" Bai Ou said.

"Okay." Lu Di nodded. "But I have to put forward a condition first. No matter how much you invest, you cannot ask for dividends from Dajiang within five years! This is the premise of our cooperation!"

"Sure!" Bai Ou answered decisively.

This surprised Lu Di a little.

When negotiating with other bosses, everything else was fine, but as soon as this issue was mentioned, disagreements arose. Neither side gave in and the negotiation ended in a bad mood.

I didn’t expect the girl to agree so readily?

He glanced at Fang Qingye, who was leisurely drinking tea beside him, with a puzzled look.

Fang Qingye felt his gaze and smiled: "Boss Bai's opinion is my opinion."

Lu Di was relieved, it seemed that it could really be done.

"That's OK! Tell me your conditions." he said again.

"We first need to know your company's valuation, and then we can give you the specific investment amount," said Bai Ou.

"We asked someone to do a valuation, and it was about 4 million yuan."

"Four hundred million?" Bai Ou frowned slightly. "Your revenue last year was only six million, barely breaking even, and yet you're valued at four hundred million?!"

"Mr. Bai also said this morning that we are a high-tech company and cannot be measured by the valuation of ordinary companies." Lu Di said with a hint of cunning in his eyes.

"Mr. Lu, I would like to see your company's financial data for the past two years." Bai Ou changed his angle.

"Okay." Lu Di agreed readily and immediately took out a file bag in a manila envelope from the drawer and handed it to Bai Ou.

"You two can go to my conference room next door and take a look at it first. If you have any questions, you can always come to me." Lu Di said.

So the two of them moved and went to the next meeting room. Bai Ou picked up the report and looked at it carefully.

They were all various financial statements, and Bai Ou read them very carefully.

These were not difficult for Fang Qingye. Working in a bank, he often dealt with businesses, and the first thing he had to do was to be able to read various financial statements. But when he saw that Baiou didn't seem to be flipping through them randomly, he asked curiously, "Can you understand this, too?"

The girl gave him a cold look.

"I'm studying business and civil law. If I can't even understand financial statements, how can I even talk about suing?!"

"Very good, very good." Fang Qingye immediately picked up the teacup and took a sip with satisfaction.

I can continue to be a lazy guy.

"Ye Zi, to be honest, the other party's financial statements are nothing to look at." Bai Ou closed the materials and looked at Fang Qingye. "It can only show whether the company's financial management is formal. For a growing company like this, the first thing to look at is the team, and the second is their technology. I don't understand either of them."

"There's no problem with the team. Wang Tao is the core of the entire team, and Lu Di is his best partner. As long as these two people cooperate with each other and there are no problems, there will be no problem with his team." Fang Qingye took a sip of tea and said lightly.

"As for technology, from what I've read about the company online, it's definitely leading the way."

"Okay, that's the company's valuation, which involves our share of the shares." Bai Ou continued, "How many billions do you think their company is valued at?"

"Given their current situation, 2 to 3 million is enough," Fang Qingye said.

"Okay! Then I'll negotiate based on the 2 million goal!"

Half an hour later, the two returned to the land office next door.

Bai Ou got straight to the point and said, "Mr. Lu, I think your company's valuation is too high."

"Why? To be honest, I've already contacted several investment companies, and none of them have raised any objections to our valuation."

Believe your lies!

Bai Ou grumbled inwardly, but her expression remained unchanged. "Mr. Lu, general corporate valuation methods include the price-to-earnings ratio method, the discounted cash flow method, and the asset-based approach. Your company is a startup, and there is considerable uncertainty about its future development, so the discounted cash flow method is more suitable."

Bai Ou talked a lot and left Lu Di stunned.

Aren’t you studying law?

How come you are so familiar with investment?
"Mr. Lu, after a comprehensive evaluation based on factors such as drone industry trends, market prospects, and the capabilities of our entrepreneurial team, I believe a valuation between 1.5 million and 1.8 million is appropriate. To demonstrate our sincerity, we can proceed with a valuation of 1.8 million."

Bai Ou gave his own conclusion.

Lu Di frowned when he heard this.

I asked for a high price, and you really want to pay me back?
The price cut is too harsh!

"1.8 million is definitely not possible!" Lu Di refused: "At least 3 million!" "3 million is still too high." Bai Ou frowned slightly.

After some fierce bargaining, the two finally settled on 2.3 million yuan.

At this time, Bai Ou looked at Fang Qingye.

Fang Qingye nodded slightly.

"Alright then! Mr. Lu, we'll use your company's valuation of 2.3, so our investment will be 2300 million, representing 10% of the total shares."

This investment amount is quite appropriate.

Lu Di nodded.

This was also what he and Wang Tao had discussed.

As the founder of a company, you must hold absolute shares!

Of course, this is just a preliminary intention, and there are still a lot of specific details to discuss.

The negotiations continued the next day, and only a rough draft was produced by the afternoon.

"Mr. Bai, we need to discuss this further before we can proceed to the next round of negotiations," Lu Di said.

Bai Ou and Fang Qingye were not surprised by Lu Di's attitude. After all, it was an investment of tens of millions. How could it be settled in one negotiation?

Bai Ou immediately stated: "Yes, but please be quick."

"Will do."

It was already four o'clock in the afternoon when the two left the office building of Dajiang Company.

"Bai Ou, why don't you take a day off and stay one more day? I'll accompany you around tomorrow and we'll be back tomorrow night."

Fang Qingye felt a little guilty.

I agreed to bring the girl to Pengcheng for fun, but ended up spending the entire two days at the negotiation table.

But Bai Ou disagreed: "I have classes tomorrow morning, and I still need to go to Pengcheng. When the next negotiation is successful, we can have a good two days!"

"Okay, I won't break my promise next time!"

In the evening, the two flew back to Shanghai. Fang Qingye retrieved his car in the parking lot and drove the girl back to school.

"Ye Zi, do you want to rush back to Nanxin now, or stay overnight and leave tomorrow morning?" Bai Ou asked.

"It's too late. Let's go tomorrow morning. I'll talk to our President Xia." Fang Qingye said.

"Okay, bye then!" The girl smiled and took her suitcase from the back of the car.

"I'll help you." Fang Qingye hurriedly helped to take it out. He wanted to help carry it upstairs but was politely refused by Bai Ou.

"No need. It's so late. Our roommates are all asleep. It's inconvenient for you to go in."

"Okay, you should rest early too."

After watching the girl carry the suitcase upstairs, Fang Qingye got into the car and left a message to Xia He on QQ, saying that he would rush back to Nanxin tomorrow morning and would be late for work.

The other party responded instantly.

"Okay, don't travel at night. Safety first. Have you finished your business?"

"It's not completely done yet. I'll tell you when I get back."

"Ok."

The next morning, Fang Qingye drove back to Nanxin. After work in the afternoon, Xia He came to his office, seeming a little impatient.

"What on earth are you busy doing in Pengcheng? You've been so secretive. Isn't it time to tell me now?"

"I have a friend in Pengcheng who opened a drone research and development company. I want to invest in it." Fang Qingye briefly recounted the whole story, with a slight modification of course, directly changing the investment of more than 2300 million to 23.

Directly reduce it by 100 times.

Xia He said "oh".

In principle, employees of Bank of Oriental are not allowed to invest in enterprises, but the management is not strict. As long as the enterprise you invest in does not have any conflicts of interest with Bank of Oriental, or in other words, do not use your position and power in the bank to profit for the enterprise you invest in.

It is obvious that Fang Qingye's investment is not of this type.

A question suddenly occurred to her. "Xiao Fang, you said you found a friend and registered a company in his name. You have to be careful not to let your friend siphon off your funds."

"Don't worry, she won't. She is my childhood friend, her name is Baiou." Fang Qingye said with a smile.

"What? White lotus root?!" Xia He was stunned.

"You really have a friend named Bai Ou?!"
