Chapter 468 Prototype Please subscribe and vote monthly. Thanks. Sun Zesheng initiated the establishment of Youmeng Venture Capital, and the favorable conditions it offered far exceeded the expectations of the participants. Controlling rights were not their biggest concern. What moved them most was Sun Zesheng's promise to take them with him. Make money together. What is the purpose of doing business? It's not just about making money, a successful businessman is destined to aim at making high profits. Li Zifeng and Yin Chendi were willing to purchase the equity of Meixiang Electric from Sun Zesheng at a price that exceeded their psychological bottom line. A very important purpose was to obtain the right to do business with Sun Zesheng, so that they could share the benefits of Sun Zesheng's unique vision. Come the benefits. After Yin Chendi expressed her willingness to invest 2 billion, George Smith, Li Zifeng and the directors of Jinan Bank all expressed their willingness to invest varying amounts of funds. The least among them invested 100 million, and the most reached 500 million. 100 million, the person who invested the most was not George Smith, but Li Zifeng. ¡°If all the investments from these people are added up, the total amount exceeds 10 billion, reaching 13.4 billion. After Sun Zesheng and others expressed their opinions, he said: "I can't let you be the best and personally invest 8 billion." Li Zifeng and others couldn't help but feel disappointed and have an expected complicated thought. What is disappointing is that Sun Zesheng was not able to pull Sun Zesheng from the position of leading Umeng Ventures. It was expected that Sun Zesheng would not take the initiative to give up the controlling stake. Strictly speaking, Sun Zesheng really did not seek to obtain a controlling stake in Umeng Venture Capital. He decided from the beginning to take out all the remaining money he earned from selling Meixiang Electrical Appliances. If someone really invests more than him, he is willing to take a back seat. Sun Zesheng wants to attract more powerful and influential allies in the business world through Youmeng Venture Capital, and it does not necessarily have to be decided through holding shares. He could have infiltrated his ideas into the process of initiating the establishment of Umeng Venture Capital and leading the formulation of the basic rules of Umeng Venture Capital. And in such a company. It¡¯s not that whoever holds the controlling stake is the one who can dominate Umeng Venture Capital¡¯s trends. Like him, even if he did not obtain a controlling stake, because of his influence outside Umeng Ventures, he had an unrivaled voice within Umeng Ventures. After determining the amount of investment from each person or company, Sun Zesheng took out a few folders and distributed them to everyone attending the meeting, "Everyone, this is the draft charter of Umeng Venture Capital that I drafted. Please take it back and read it carefully." Take a look. A week later, we will hold a second meeting here to revise the draft charter and strive to satisfy everyone. In addition, I would like to reiterate that if you think Umeng Venture Capital is more promising, In principle, there is no problem if we continue to inject capital into it, and there should be no obstacles to withdrawing from Umeng Venture Capital. But after withdrawing, we will no longer be able to join." After everyone received the draft charter, they all asked. Sun Zesheng said goodbye, they all needed to go back. Carefully study the articles of association of Umeng Venture Capital. After all, it is related to their vital interests and cannot be careless. George Smith stayed at the end and rushed to Sun Zesheng. He looked at Sun Zesheng with some dissatisfaction, "Dear Sun, the establishment of Umeng Venture Capital. Why didn't you say hello to me in advance? Also, should Umeng Venture Capital be involved in the establishment of overseas space companies? Tell me? Didn¡¯t we agree that you and I would do this together? Do you have no confidence in yourself, or do you doubt my sincerity? " Sun Zesheng smiled and said, "That¡¯s just what you said. It's a bit exaggerated. Our friendship started when we ate dumplings made by my mother. I forgot who you are, and I can't forget you. " George Smith said: "Dear Sun, don't say it so nicely, if you really mean it. If it were me, there wouldn't be today's meeting. Would you at least say hello to me in advance?" Sun Zesheng smiled and said, "Mr. Smith, don't worry, I just said you would allow Umeng Venture Capital to invest. Overseas space companies have not said that we cannot start a new one and build another space company that has nothing to do with Umeng Ventures. There are so many on earth, how can we only build one outside China? Three, three or four, right? The funds that Umeng Venture Capital can raise are limited and it cannot build too many space companies. What's more, since it is venture capital, it can only be done by spreading the investment out and not putting it in one basket. To ensure the safety of funds to the greatest extent, Umeng Ventures may not be able to fully hold even a space company. Allowing it to invest in overseas space companies will not affect our commitment. You said. , is this the truth? " George Smith pondered for a moment, then pressed his chest and said: "Okay, I admit that what you said is very reasonable.reason. However, you didn't greet me in advance, which makes me somewhat uncomfortable here. " Sun Zesheng put his arm around George Smith's shoulders, "How can you be uncomfortable? Mr. Smith, I am preparing to ask Wuhan Yang to discuss with you in detail the establishment of a subsidiary of Future Light Company in Thailand. Just now, I didn¡¯t say that I wanted Umeng Venture Capital to get involved in the establishment of this subsidiary, right? Such great benefits are all reserved for you. " George Smith is still of great use to Sun Zesheng. The customer resources, channels and so on in his hands are all what Sun Zesheng needs, so he chose to appease George Smith rather than treat him forcefully. From another From a perspective, if Sun Zesheng wants to have more allies in the business world, he must change his original strong attitude when talking about business. Otherwise, even if the other party becomes a partner with him, they will still feel uncomfortable. , when to be strong and when to show weakness, these Sun Zesheng has his own measure, and will not give up the benefits he deserves for the so-called win over allies. George Smith is not really angry, just like Sun Zesheng does not want to lose him. , and he didn¡¯t want to lose his cooperation with Sun Zesheng. When he saw Sun Zesheng handing him a ladder, he got off the donkey and didn¡¯t continue to argue. The negotiation between George Smith and Wuhan Yang went smoothly, and both parties agreed to send a ladder. The joint inspection team went to Thailand to inspect the Thai and even the entire Southeast Asian market to make preliminary preparations for the establishment of Future Light Thailand. As for the distribution of interests in the Thai company, the two parties also reached an agreement based on the final decision. According to the inspection results, both parties will invest the same amount, and Future Light Company will hold 10% more equity than George Smith. The business method of Future Light Thailand Company will be to import semi-finished products from China's Future Light Company. , and then the Thai company will localize it and sell it. The profits earned will be distributed according to the equity ratio. George Smith has been negotiating with Wuhan Yang for several days, but he is very busy thinking about it in the future. Sharing the benefits brought by the company's multiple series of cosmetics, no matter how hard and tiring it is, it is still rewarding. The main reason why Sun Zesheng is willing to let George Smith get involved is that he is not familiar with overseas markets and needs to be involved. There is a person who is familiar with overseas markets to share market risks with him. In addition, it is to prepare for entering the European and American markets in the near future. George Smith is an authentic American businessman and knows the American market better than Sun Zesheng and his subordinates. If Sun Zesheng¡¯s company wants to enter the U.S. market, he must have a trustworthy person who can frankly tell him the taboos, precautions, etc. before and after entering the U.S. market. George Smith is undoubtedly a very suitable candidate. A week later, Sun Zesheng, George Smith, Li Zifeng and others gathered in the business conference room of Jinan Hotel. This time the discussion was much more intense than the last time. , almost everyone has put forward their own suggestions for modifications to the draft charter of Umeng Venture Capital. These modifications mainly focus on the rights and obligations of members, and the rights are mainly focused on the threshold for membership and withdrawal. Able to win over more allies. In the draft charter, the threshold for membership units to join and withdraw is set relatively low. His purpose in engaging in Umeng Venture Capital was not to make money, but more to form a community of interests. But member units such as the American Time Foundation and H Private Equity Fund. Their main purpose is to make money. Who would do anything without any benefit? There is an obvious conflict between Sun Zesheng¡¯s purpose and the purpose of other member companies. It is not difficult to understand that they require modification of relevant terms. Sun Zesheng¡¯s initial design was based on the principle of low threshold. ??To be more specific, if any enterprise or company is willing to join Umeng Ventures, they can apply at any time and sign a statement that they are willing to abide by the articles of association of Umeng Ventures and become a member. As for withdrawal, it is even simpler, that is, no matter which member unit it is, it can apply for withdrawal at any time, and as long as the application is made, it will be deemed to have withdrawn from Umeng Venture Capital. The only clause in the draft articles of association drafted by Sun Zesheng that can be considered harsh is what he told Li Zifeng and others a week ago. As long as he withdraws from Umeng Venture Capital, he will lose the qualification to join Umeng Venture Capital again. Regarding the rights owned by member units, Li Zifeng, Yin Chendi and others unanimously expressed their request for modification. After a heated discussion, major changes were made to the final clause. Members of the American Time Foundation represented by Sun Zesheng, George Smith, and Li ZifengOne of the founders of Umeng Ventures. Any subsequent company that wants to join Umeng Ventures must be recommended by at least one founder. After that, the recommended unit needs to be voted on, and more than half of the founders must Only the recommended units can join if the founder agrees and more than two-thirds of the equity shares agree. As for exit, the exit terms proposed by Sun Zesheng have basically been retained. However, participants had a fierce dispute over whether member units after the launch could join again. After arguing for a long time, we finally reached a compromise plan. After the member unit withdraws, it can join Umeng Ventures again. However, when joining again, it needs to be recommended by no less than three founders and more than three points. Only when two-thirds of the founders agree and more than four-fifths of the equity shareholders agree can the membership unit be regained. If you apply to join after the founder withdraws, you will permanently lose the qualification of the founder. This clause is extremely harsh and severe, which means that after withdrawing from Umeng Ventures, if you want to join again, the difficulty will increase by n times, and there is almost no hope of success. Participants also had a heated discussion on the obligations of member units in the draft charter proposed by Sun Zesheng. Li Zifeng and others are business elites who have been in the business world for many years. Sun Zesheng's intention was revealed in the article. Even if they can't completely guess it, they can still guess that it's close to each other. They did not object to the clause of mutual support and support, but they unanimously requested that a clause be added, that is, when helping other member units, the member units that lend a helping hand can do what they can, and this "quantity" The power lies with the member units themselves. Other member units cannot interfere. ¡°As a result, Sun Zesheng¡¯s intention to initiate the establishment of Youmeng Venture Capital has been weakened to a considerable extent, but this matter cannot be rushed. Umeng Venture Capital is originally a very loose organization. It's like several people opening a company together. If they get along, they work together. If they don't, they break up. There is still a long way to go before we can unite them all, and more efforts are needed from Sun Zesheng, the initiator and controller. But one thing is for sure. Sun Zesheng consciously created a Umeng Venture Capital. This is a very crucial step in his growth into a powerful businessman. The establishment of Umeng Venture Capital indicates that it already has the prototype of a power business. With the establishment of Umeng Venture Capital, there is the matter of setting up space companies overseas. It had to be put on the agenda. The location of the first overseas space company has become a hot spot of controversy. Sun Zesheng didn't care too much about this aspect, he simply left it alone. It was left to Li Zifeng and George Smith to handle the matter. The two Americans quickly organized an inspection group to inspect the world in a decent manner. Sun Zesheng was not idle either. News came from the Special Administrative Region City. After long discussions and arguments, the Special Administrative Region City decided to join forces with Sun Zesheng to fundamentally solve the water shortage situation in the Special Administrative Region City. The SAR Municipal Government has agreed to package municipal water supply, pollution control and other tasks to Sun Zesheng. The SAR Municipal Government notified Sun Zesheng to sign a contract with them. After Sun Zesheng received the news, he immediately took Song Jiayi, Zheng Kunming and others to the Special Economic Zone City to prepare to sign a contract with the Special Economic Zone City. This is the first order Sun Zesheng has received in China. It is the first step for him to participate in the transformation of China's environment and penetrate into the lives of every resident. For him, it is very important and he cannot but treat it carefully. Sun Zesheng and the others took a plane from Yanjing and flew directly to the Special Economic Zone City. Deng Zhujun, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee of Southern Guangdong Province, and Wang Liansheng, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee of the Special Administrative Region City, personally welcomed Sun Zesheng and his party at the Special Administrative Region Airport. The contract was signed very smoothly. Starting from January 1 next year, the SAR Municipal Government will officially hand over the work item by item to Sun Zesheng's people. Sun Zesheng needs to abide by several commitments. The first is to ensure the industrial and agricultural water, residential water, commercial water, landscape water, etc. in the special zone city. Second, within three years, the price of residential water and agricultural water cannot be increased within three years. , if prices are to be increased in the future, citizen hearings must be held. Industrial and commercial water prices cannot be increased within one year. If prices are to be increased in the future, corresponding hearings must also be held. Third, the sewage treatment and other work in the special zone city must be carried out promptly. Fourth, the phenomenon of seawater seepage in the coastal map of the special zone city must be solved by every possible means. Although Sun Zesheng has a lot of promises to keep, he still makes a lot of money from the contract he reached with the Special Administrative Region City. What he uses is seawater. The seawater desalination equipment of Qingshui Water is very mature. The cost of seawater desalination is not high at all. If the treated seawater is sold to various users in the special zone city, the profit will at least double. Even several times. The annual water consumption in the special zone city is an astronomical figure. Multiplying the two, the amount is quite considerable. As for sewage treatment and so on?, like seawater desalination, the cost is not much. The treated sewage can also be used as drinking water or something, and fed back to the residents of the special zone city. After the contract was signed, Zheng Kunming immediately followed Sun Zesheng¡¯s instructions and began to dispatch engineering teams to the special zone city. It¡¯s not that the Special Administrative Region City doesn¡¯t give any benefits to Sun Zesheng. First of all, the subsidies and subsidies that the Special Administrative Region Municipal Government gives to the Special Administrative Region City¡¯s sewage treatment plants, water plants, landfills, etc. every year will be given to Sun Zesheng in the future. It's just that these subsidies and subsidies will not increase at all within three years. After three years, whether they will be increased or even canceled depends on the actual situation. ??Furthermore, the SAR Municipal Government agreed to hand over a piece of land with an area of ??more than 100 acres to Sun Zesheng at half the market price for Qingshui Water to build a seawater desalination plant. The seawater desalination equipment that Zheng Kunming wants to build is on this land. According to Sun Zesheng, the first phase of the project is directly a super large equipment that can process one million tons of seawater per day. In the second phase, the equipment will be used to process 10 million tons of seawater per day. After that, we need to check whether it is the third phase of the project based on actual needs. According to calculations, as long as the first and second phases of construction are completed, the daily water needs of the special zone city can basically be met. As for the treatment of various pollutions, Sun Zesheng has designed a package of solutions. After the contract was signed, he began to implement these plans.
