My Age of Investment

Chapter 200: Create a personality?

  Chapter 200: Creating a Personality?

  Eberhard got Xia Jingxing’s gaze and started to introduce Musk to "the legendary life of a new generation of stock gods."

  In 2002, the stocks of NetEase were bargained at the bottom, winning 50 times the excess return!

  In 2003, the towing company Amicco, which fell into bankruptcy again, has gained 10 times the income!

   Last month, when Xia Jingxing wanted to invest in Tesla, the two founders questioned financial issues.

  Xia Jingxing asked the two to pay attention to the stock price trends of Netease and Emeco.

  The two also did.

  Compared with each other, Xia Jingxing added a label of “young stock god” in addition to “entrepreneurial rookie” in the eyes of both of them.

  It sounds funny!

  Xia Jingxing used to show the securities assets to them in order to fool the babes and the little dogs on the boat.

  In order not to be threatened by Andrew and Old John in the financing negotiations, he once again showed his financial strength.

  It's the fourth time to get to Musk.

  There is no way!

  He came from a family of ordinary cadres in China. His father is not a business tycoon, and there is no mine at home. He did not appear on the "Forbes Rankings". His age is even more questionable.

  In order to win the trust of business partners, it is necessary to demonstrate strength.

  His biggest asset is now Facebook’s equity, but Facebook has only completed the A round of financing and cannot be turned into money immediately.

  For the money he made from stocks, he also paid taxes legally. He didn't steal it or grabbed it, so he didn't need to hide it.

  When dealing with foreigners, you don’t have to learn the self-effacement of the Chinese.

  If you have the strength, show it to me. Negotiations are easy, and the partners have confidence in you.

as predicted!

  After listening to Musk, although he did not stand in awe, the look in Xia Jingxing's eyes changed.

  No longer put on a spectrum, and began to regard Xia Jingxing as an entrepreneur of equal strength, or a capitalist.

  "Dalun, I didn't expect that besides being a good entrepreneur, you are also so proficient in securities investment."

   Musk gave a thumbs up, admiration from the heart.

  It’s luck to make a huge stock market profit once, and the two times are strength, and the timing of the two investments is so precise that it is breathtaking.

  "Thanks! I just studied more than others."

  I can’t say a few foolish casts, Xia Jingxing can only use "research" as a guise.

  Musk, Tarpening, and Eberhard did not doubt this, and they also felt that it should be the case.

  Without in-depth research, can you earn such an exaggerated rate of return?

  Since Xia Jingxing's strength is okay, Musk can only change his mind and put his idea on other people.

He said in a negotiating tone: "Well, Tarpening and Eberhard, you two will sell me 10% of the shares together. I will talk to SDL and Compass to try to get 8% of their shares. The equity is bought.

  If all goes well, I will inject the remaining $6.4 million into Tesla.

  What do you think of this plan?

  In this way, both of you can recover part of the investment and reduce the risk of starting a business. "

  Speaking of this, Musk paused, gave Xia Jingxing a glance, and calmly said: "Dalun, your share of equity will not be affected too much.

  As for myself, I have invested the most and will bear the greatest investment risk. "

  Xia Jingxing calculated it in his heart. According to the operation proposed by Musk, his equity will be reduced to 31.8%, and Musk’s equity will reach 37.9%, making him the largest shareholder of Tesla in one fell swoop.

  Before he could speak, Tarpening came out and objected first, “No, Eberhard and I together hold only 40% of the shares.

  After selling 10% to you, it will be diluted by capital injection again, and the combined shares of the two people are only in the early 20%.

  The most important thing is that Tesla is not in urgent need of financing.

  If you want to invest in us, it is best to wait until the B round of financing, we will give you priority. "

  Eberhard nodded in agreement with his companion, "Yes, now is not a good time to raise money.

  Why not, you can talk to two venture capital institutions and see if you can buy 8% of their shares. "

   Musk doesn’t understand why this happens?

  Obviously the two had something to do just now, but now they are so resistant to his investment?

  Tapenning and Eberhard felt that they were just too dazzled.

  They have been short of money for too long, and every time they see a new investor appear, they can’t wait to get the other party into the group.

  Xia Jingxing just proposed a capital increase plan, which awakened them. At this stage, it is not a good financing opportunity, especially large financing, which will overdraft a lot of hidden benefits in the future.

   And the twenty-year-old man beside him is also a rich man, and he promised them a guaranteed investment of 84 million U.S. dollars. They shouldn't be too eager to raise funds.

   Musk frowned, eight points of shares can not fill his appetite.

  If he wants to invest in Tesla, he must take the position of the major shareholder and completely control the company.

  Xia Jingxing smiled, as long as Eberhard and Tarpening don’t let go, Musk shouldn’t control Tesla.

  At the beginning, he gave the two founders a good foundation and promised to invest a total of 84 million U.S. dollars in the next five years. The purpose is to stabilize the two and prevent one day Musk from coming to the door and the two founders defect.

  Now Musk has really come to his door, and he has invested 10 million US dollars.

  The two founders were really moved just now, but now they have been "beaten" to wake up.

  The two really wanted to join Musk.

  But I was reminded by Xia Jingxing that there should be a limit. First of all, I must ensure that my equity cannot be greatly diluted, at least not now.

  It’s been diluted a lot now. It’s a loss. The 7.5 million dollars on the account has not been spent yet, and the prototype has not been built. Too much financing is a waste.

  They feel that if they have to accept Musk’s investment now, they can’t "sacrifice" themselves.

  If you want to sacrifice, you have to sacrifice two venture capital companies, SDL and Compass.

  The two venture capital companies are small funds, and they are not particularly optimistic about Tesla. They each invested $600,000 in the company.

  If Musk, a billionaire, replaces two venture capital institutions as new shareholders, plus the guaranteed investment Xia Jingxing promised to them, then the company will really not be short of money in the future, just make it hard!

  I have to say that Eberhard and Tarpening’s abacus is very good.

  But soon they were disappointed.

   Musk shook his head, "Forget it, only 8% of the shares, too little."

   glanced at the three of them, Musk said in a deep voice: "I might choose to start an electric car company by myself!"

  Tapening and Eberhard were stunned. They didn't expect Musk to be so optimistic about the electric vehicle industry. If the investment failed, they would roll up their sleeves and go out.

  Xia Jingxing was a bit complicated in her heart.

  Through these conversations, he almost touched Musk's bottom line-the largest shareholder, chairman, and control.

  To satisfy the other party, unless you give up part of the equity, it will not be able to fill Musk's appetite.

  The opinions of the two Tesla founders can basically be ignored.

  If he agrees to Musk's entry, the two probably won't be too opposed.

  Let Musk enter the field?

  This is a dilemma.

  Let Musk in, and he can only be a financial investment shareholder with peace of mind, and the share ratio cannot be too high, otherwise Musk will definitely eliminate the threat.

   Can not let Musk enter, can Tesla still reach the height of the previous life?

  It is undeniable that Musk has made a lot of contributions to Tesla.

  Through a series of marketing, Musk starred in Marvel movies and created the "Iron Man" character set, making him famous all over the world.

   Tesla’s main products at the beginning were all mid-to-high-end routes, while Musk used his reputation and other companies’ black technology products to help Tesla do brand marketing.

The owner bought a Tesla, as if he had acquired the most cutting-edge high-tech products. Not only did he narrow the distance with his idols, he also supported Musk’s SpaceX with practical actions, which made it possible for humans to explore outer space. contribute.

  It's so strange, buying a Tesla, there are so many inner dramas and sense of superiority.

   But if Musk is not allowed to enter the field, can you go up?

  To create awesome personal settings, various black technology companies are set up, legendary life is added, I speak for myself...

  The reason why Musk is so influential is that there are marketing companies behind it. This is for sure, and he can also find it.

  This is like packaging a star, it must have a basic foundation, otherwise it is not easy to pack.

  To get a basic foundation...

  Is it possible that I also use spacecraft, rockets, brain-computer interface companies...

  Full arrangement?
