"Hey, Dong, this is the good dish I just mentioned." Anita stood at the table between the two of them at some point and placed a small plate of Kung Pao Chicken lightly on the table, "I recommend it to you and your Give it a try, friend.”
Hearing someone speaking German to Dong Qiangqiang, Duanmu subconsciously looked up. After seeing Anita's appearance, he quickly wiped his mouth with a napkin, and then neatly completed the action of handing over the business card while standing up. "Hello, my name is Duanmu Xinghao. Nice to meet you!"
"Oh, hello! Anita." Anita stretched out her hand to take the business card flattered, "Sorry, I don't have one." Her eyes smiled into two small crescents, "I wish you all a good appetite tonight! Bye. "
After walking out a few meters, Anita looked back at Dong Qiangqiang's table, as if checking whether the two of them had eaten.
Looking at the other party's curling figure, Duanmu waved to her and asked Dong Qiangqiang curiously: "What does this woman do?"
"The lower-class workers who have fallen into the streets." Dong Qiangqiang was surprised that Anita would bring food here. He knew that with Duanmu's temper, he would definitely get to the bottom of it, so he simply said it.
Although Duanmu had not been in Hamburg for a long time, he had heard of the name of the red light district. He immediately understood what Dong Qiangqiang was referring to, nodded and sighed: "I have to say that you are still wild, and you can recognize it by all three religions. Real ability. Real ability."
"Don't get it wrong, I met her when I was a tour guide leading a tour group." Dong Qiangqiang said angrily.
Anita's appearance broke the previous awkwardness. The two chatted with each other for a few words, and the atmosphere gradually recovered.
Dong Qiangqiang originally planned to cut the knot quickly and spend half an hour to forty minutes eating and talking. Seeing that Duanmu didn't talk much at this time, he knew that he still insisted on his own idea and said: "I can understand what you said about a higher valuation being beneficial. The next round of financing and more funds will help invest in different stocks, but compared to you, my ability to take risks is indeed limited. If you insist on choosing Blacksburg, I don’t want to hold you back. I will return the shares to the company, and that stock The software has been used as part of the shares before, but you may need that software for financing, so you can keep the copyright and just give me the money that belongs to me. This will be convenient for everyone. Do you think this is okay? "
After hearing this, Duanmu smiled bitterly and shook his head: "If you withdraw your shares, not only may I not be able to get Black Castle's money, but I may not even be able to get the old man's money."
"Why?" Dong Qiangqiang was puzzled, "You are the major shareholder and have the greatest impact on this company. Why will my withdrawal of shares affect you?"
"You may have forgotten, because these three companies have mentioned that they want to invest in a company with a team instead of a mere commander." Duanmu sighed, "The company has no business in the first place. If you leave again, this matter will It’s definitely yellow.”
Dong Qiangqiang thought to himself: If we want to retreat but won’t give in, and we can’t afford to pay, then the only option left is Upward Venture Capital. But Upward Venture Capital is not unconditional. Tom made it very clear that if Duanmu wants to get their 200,000, he has to work full-time.
"Then can you work full-time?" Dong Qiangqiang asked, which is equivalent to knowing whether Duanmu is willing to take the money from Upward Venture Capital.
"It's absolutely impossible to work full-time." Duanmu's answer was decisive.
"Why?"
"Because whether you are short selling or buying put options, it is not as simple as sitting in the office and looking through financial reports and calculating numbers. Instead, you have to go deep into the company being shorted to understand the situation first-hand. Even if you can't get into the other company. , and also need to find ways to understand more internal situations. My current company has dedicated personnel to collect information on listed companies in the United States. If I can stay in the company, I will have the opportunity to gain access to more information, which is very important to our company. The advantages outweigh the disadvantages. The old man and Heibao both know this truth, so they did not force me to leave my job before starting a business. The reason Shang made such a request was probably because he was afraid that I would have a conflict of interest with my current company. Although this request is reasonable, it is definitely not the best choice for us who are just starting out. If I can't choose Black Castle, then I would rather choose the old man than try to rise."
Duanmu did not hesitate to block this road, and it seemed to make sense. Dong Qiangqiang didn't know what else he could say. He felt that he had already made it clear what he needed to say.
Duanmu seemed to have expected that Dong Qiangqiang would be silent, and said again unhurriedly: "I know you are risk-averse, so do you think this is okay? If the bet fails, I will personally bear the principal and interest debt of 500,000 euros. This can exchange for your Do you want to stay?" Duanmu's tone was very firm, "After all, if you leave the company, then I will be the only one left in the company. If Black Castle can still invest 500,000 in me by then, I will bear the consequences alone. If you stay now, But it doesn’t make any difference if I bear the interest of 500,000 euros alone.”
Dong Qiangqiang took a breath after hearing this. Duanmu's decision surprised and shocked him. "I don't understand. Our investment styles and concepts are obviously completely different. Why do we have to be tied together? Even if I retire from the company, you can definitely bring in another like-minded person to form a new team."
"It's really not difficult to find another person. What's difficult is that I need to spend time and money to verify whether I can trust him. You know that trust between people takes time to cultivate, and what we have to do is to communicate with a lot of people. When it comes to dealing with money, if I find someone I don’t understand as a partner, I’m not sure whether his humanity can withstand the test of money. I can’t do business while also guarding against my partner stabbing me in the back. ." Duanmu spoke in a calm tone, as if he had already considered this method.
"Then how can you be sure that my humanity is okay?" Dong Qiangqiang asked, "I have never been tested by a lot of money before. Even I don't know if my humanity can withstand the temptation of money."
"Although you haven't been tested by the temptation of a lot of money, I have seen your attitude when your friends face danger." Duanmu took a sip of pear juice, "And in the backyard of the Scarecrow Winery, you helped me steer away. The wild boar. Lao Bai was kidnapped, and the person you raised money to ransom came back injured. After Lu Wei went to prison, you were the only one who visited her from time to time. Lei Lanting was short of deposit as a tour guide, so you gave up your watch To raise money for me. I believe you may have done a lot of things that I don't know, but it is enough for me to know these things, because these things are enough for me to believe that your humanity is kind. If one day I also No matter what happens, I know that I still have people I can trust. This is my greatest comfort and hope. What if, I mean what if one day you are tempted by money, then I will admit it. After all, there are people around me now. I couldn’t find anyone else more suitable than you.”
"If you don't mind that I put a villain first and then a gentleman," Dong Qiangqiang asked tentatively, "can you write down the suggestion you just made in black and white?"
"No problem. I'll have a lawyer verify it before you sign the investment agreement. Are you relieved?" Duanmu asked.
Duanmu had already talked to this extent, and Dong Qiangqiang was too embarrassed to keep nagging. He raised his glass: "I hope everything goes well for us."
"Do you think I'm stupid and bold?" Duanmu suddenly asked after drinking the pear juice.
"That's not the case," Dong Qiangqiang said truthfully, "I just feel incredible that you trust me so much. You know, sometimes people don't trust themselves."
"Maybe I don't believe you, but I believe in my own judgment." Duanmu smiled secretly, "But you must have said something wrong just now. We will only make money this year and not lose money. When the money from Black Castle comes in, you will knew."
