Chapter 222 Headwind

Sunshine Bicycle did not have only one venture capital company to make strategic investment in its A-round financing. It must be known that this project involving hundreds of millions of dollars also has very large risks.

We must know that money can never be earned, but investment losses are bottomless pits. Who knows that in the event of a black swan event, the investment will be lost.

Venture capital companies will also consider it, and need to share these risks equally.

Moreover, it is difficult for a company to take out such a large amount of funds at once.

Therefore, the A round of financing is actually led by several large venture capital companies, plus individual small companies in the form of drinking soup to form a consortium to carry out financing cooperation for Sunshine Bicycle.

Each company owns the shares of Sunshine Bicycle Technology Co., Ltd., and this share has a corresponding right to speak.

After two rounds of financing, the division of shares within Sunshine Bicycle has actually become much more complicated, but the consortium formed by the companies that came in after the A round of financing is definitely the largest group of shares.

Although it does not directly exceed half of the shares of Yangguan Bicycle Technology Co., Ltd., but with the shares of Zhang Chengtian, Chen Guangyi and Li Lingao, more than half is more than enough.

It is not easy to win the consent of so many companies. As long as one or two companies fail to win, Song Gangyi can easily win.

Therefore, Chen Guangyi flinched after he regained his senses. He was the least willing among the three people to get this far. He just wanted to teach Song Gangyi a lesson at the beginning, and at the same time felt that going this way seemed to be against him. It is very advantageous to acquiesce in this thing happening like this.

But thinking about it now, things don't seem to be able to develop according to their own wishes. If they fail to rebel successfully, what awaits them is Song Gangyi's endless anger and revenge, which will actually damage Chen Guangyi's interests.

So Chen Guangyi had the intention of retreating, and in fact, Li Linggao, who was the most irritating, now heard what Chen Guangyi said, and after hearing the meaning of retreat in Chen Guangyi's mouth, he also retreated in his heart.

Li Ling Gao Mang is a bit reckless, but he is definitely an idiot.

Even if he has the advantage of having more places and a slightly lower score in the province's colleges and universities, he is still admitted to Yangcheng University of Technology with his strength. At any rate, he is a high-achieving student with a 985 and his IQ is above the average level.

Now that things are obviously going in a direction that is not good for him, then he won't be so hard-headed that he has to hit the wall.

Temporarily backing down and avoiding the edge is the choice of a normal person, and it's not like Li Linggao can't.

"Don't worry, Shanren has his own plan."

"I've already thought of what you guys are thinking of. If this is really the case, then when Song Gangyi said that the shareholders' meeting would be launched, I would have firmly opposed it."

Seeing the retreat of the two, Zhang Chengtian shook his head and said, smiling condescendingly while speaking.

"Then you're saying that things have turned around?" Li Linggao's eyes lit up and he asked hastily.

"Unless you can get all the support from these companies, I won't go anyway." Chen Guangyi said a little timidly.

"Of course I have a certain guarantee, so I have the confidence to continue doing this."

Zhang Chengtian looked like he was holding a wisdom pearl.

When he saw Li Linggao and Chen Guangyi being confused and kept in the dark, he felt very refreshed in his heart, and a sense of superiority overwhelmed by IQ emerged leisurely.

'Is this how Song Gangyi felt before? '

'Sneaking up behind our backs and making some small moves without letting us know, he will still feel superior to others when he sees us in the dark, right? '

’ It’s intoxicating, but now it’s up to me to break that membrane and let me take control. '

Zhang Chengtian thought to himself.

"Oh, Chengtian, Brother Tian, ​​Grandpa Tian, ​​why don't you just tell me what's going on? Otherwise, we wouldn't have rushed with you." Li Linggao asked with the attitude of begging grandpa to sue grandma.

Zhang Chengtian pretended to be coercive for a while before slowly revealing his mystery.

It turned out that when negotiating and communicating with these companies for the A round of financing, Zhang Chengtian established a good relationship with the principals of these companies in private, and played the emotional card without anyone knowing.

In fact, just like Song Gangyi’s free sharing of Yangli Bicycle’s internal information and data to Future Bicycle to help Future Bicycle’s development and financing, Zhang Chengtian also disclosed some internal information of Sunshine Bicycle to the other company. It also caused Sunshine Bicycle to be in a headwind state during the A-round financing process.

Several other people felt that Sunshine Bicycle was being watched by the other party as if they were not wearing clothes, and the company's psychological bottom line seemed to be seen through by the other party, which made the whole negotiation trend very unfavorable to Sunshine Bicycle.

If it wasn't for Song Gangyi's brilliant strokes and forcefully demanding that the other party give the result as soon as possible, which was like an act of overturning the table, forcing them to get more financing, then Sunshine Bicycle might really be restricted by the other party everywhere.

The purpose of Zhang Chengtian's doing this is also very simple, which is to get the other party's support for him.

Although the other party paid more money in the end, it was actually beneficial to Sunshine Bicycle and the venture capital company. After all, if Sunshine Bicycle hadn’t seen a very good prospect, holding a gun to their heads would not be enough. Would not give this much money for investment.

It is precisely because they are profitable that they invest so much money. They have been keeping prices down before but still have a very firm investment intention precisely because they are optimistic about the company's prospects.

After completing the A round of financing, Zhang Chengtian continued to maintain the personal relationship between the two parties on the basis of the good relationship established by the previous contact, and finally gained the trust of the other party.

Of course, Zhang Chengtian would not be so stupid as to say the dark things, but he just said that he had contacted several companies in advance, and now the other party is very supportive of his opinion, as long as Li Linggao and Chen Guangyi's approval votes are added, then it will be possible. More than half of them eventually achieved his goal.

"No, you said that you have established a good relationship with them, so I don't understand the support of the other party."

"You must know that the world of adults only cares about interests, not affection. Interests are omnipotent. Otherwise, why should people follow you?"

Chen Guangyi was actually very upset, because it looked like Song Gangyi and Zhang Chengtian were doing some tricks behind their backs to hide the truth from others.But he pressed his tongue first and asked his doubts.

"Of course it needs to be beneficial. It's actually very simple. I promise them to find a way to squeeze out Biyuntian Investment Co., Ltd., and the remaining shares will be redistributed."

Zhang Chengtian said with a smile.
