Chapter 374: Six Minutes
Two hours later, Yamada Mirai once again walked into the president’s office. She took the initiative to remind, “Chairman, it’s time.”
Masayoshi Kishimoto picked up his cell phone from the side and looked at the time, and sure enough, two hours had passed. He unfolded his arms and stretched, “Then you should ask Ma-san to come in!”
Yamada Mirai understood and turned to walk out. In a short amount of time, she led an unattractive, short and slim man in.
Masayoshi Kishimoto raised his right hand to gesture for the other to sit down. He did not offer any courtesies or pleasantries, nor did he offer a personal explanation for making the other man wait for two hours downstairs at the company.
In his own mind, it was all superfluous nonsense. Things were as clear as a tick on a bald man’s head. The other party needs money, and he can give him money.
Financing was, to put it plainly, asking for money. It’s not even an easy thing for a real son to ask his real father for money. The larger the amount, the higher the degree of difficulty. Not to mention this kind of relationship between strangers who only talk about interests.
Masayoshi Kishimoto opened the door and said, ”According to international practice, when it comes to this kind of situation, you are usually given ten minutes. However, I will only give you six minutes to say your own business model of the project you need to finance.”
“Six minutes is enough.” Ma Yun decisively said.
Masayoshi Kishimoto held his cell phone in his right hand and tapped the timer on its attached function, “Then, you will begin!”
Ma Yun’s butt that had just sat down left the couch again and stood up facing him was eloquent. Before coming here, he had long been fully prepared.
Individuals behind closed doors at home do not know how many times to practice over and over again. In addition, his experience of failure in pulling in venture capital was quite rich, so he was able to summarize a lot of things from it to make a practical amendment to the financing plan.
At this moment, Kishimoto Masayoshi was listening attentively to the other party’s endless explanation on the one hand, and thinking of other things in his heart on the other.
On the matter of fact, if Jack Ma hadn’t achieved great success in his future endeavors, there wouldn’t be many people who would know of his existence, and there wouldn’t be the title of Papa Ma, which would only be one of the representatives of the short and poor people.
As for the classic quotes after Ma’s success, I’m afraid that he is not alone in his insights and experience, but his side of the copywriting group of people brainstorming credit.
Ma Yun suddenly from the gushing among is stopped. He indicated that he had personally finished saying what needed to be said.
Masayoshi Kishimoto pressed the pause button on the time, and after another glance at the time, it was indeed no more than six minutes. He straightened out, “How much do you need to finance?”
“Twenty million dollars.” Ma Yun blurted out without any hesitation.
Justice Kishimoto saw his dryness, and it was not just a figure casually stated, but the final result that had long been carefully calculated by him and his team members n times.
“Okay. However, I want 40% of your company’s shares.” Masayoshi Kishimoto’s right palm first extended five fingers, then bent his thumb back and said.
Ma Yun was also not at all surprised that the other party had made such a request. Before he came here, he had likewise discussed with his team members over and over again, and only then did he make N kinds of guesses, as well as formulate N kinds of countermeasures.
For example, hard gold group to carry an absolute holding, how to do? Agree, or not. If the other party does not carry out an absolute holding, then what is the acceptable range of shares?
What would be the bottom line for them to make concessions? Even if the two sides for a bargaining and bargaining, also have to come up with can convince the other party to compromise and concessions of strong support points.
“You actually do not absolutely hold?” Ma Yun was surprised instead and said.
“No, there is no need for this one. My principle is, since it is doing investment, then it will not be absolute holding and too much interference.
I want to do industry, then will not do investment, will maximize the realization of absolute control. I opened the price and conditions for you, not only not harsh, but also more favorable.
How bad is the current environment, I do not need to say more, you also know. As for what the future is like, what has not happened is making guesses.
I’m not going to lie, before I met you, I met more than 20 entrepreneurs from mainland China. There is no lack of e-commerce companies of your nature.
They all have the same purpose as you, and need to make relevant financing. The only difference is that the amount of your financing is not the same.
In fact, for the investor, you need to finance the amount of money is actually not too important, but the important thing is that you bring the project whether in the future there is the potential for development, whether it can bring me the possibility of lucrative returns.
In particular, whether the innovation of the business model can impress me. The reason why I decided to invest in you is that your business model impressed me.
You look at the long term and don’t focus on the small profits in front of you. Instead of charging a fee for buyers, you first build up the number of members associated with your website.
With the popularity of the gathering place, then naturally there will be no less sellers into the site to sell things. Then, then from the seller’s head to obtain profits.
After all, the location of the stall will directly affect how much sales. This wants a good location, then necessarily have to pay the corresponding price.
To put it bluntly, is the stall fee to give some more. I see, that are from the buyer’s head will also be a proportion of the charges.
In addition to paying the seller, you have to pay an additional fee. Have you ever seen that when you buy something in a mall? According to this logic, you have to pay the salesperson a service fee.
This is not an innovation in the business model at all, but a practice of fishing to the wind. Perhaps, at the beginning, people think that online shopping is new and will put up with it.
Once the time is long, I am afraid that people will not recognize such a way of selling with extra charges. Whether it’s wholesale or retail, the only way to win is to make it comfortable and convenient for the buyer.
This business model of yours is able to think more from the buyer’s point of view, it’s really good.” Masayoshi Kishimoto said in a serious manner.
“This one business model of mine will make the profit-making time longer.” Ma Yun certainly understood the significant shortcomings that existed above his proposed business model.
The reason why people do not dare to use, not that they did not think about it, but more or less worried about financing above not only will not impress investors, but also make each other dissatisfied, after all, is to make money, not lose money to earn sentiment.
“What does it matter if we wait some more time? Thick and thin.” Masayoshi Kishimoto spread his hands towards him, expressing an attitude that he could wait and said.
