"Original IP, original IP..."
On the subway back to the company, Cai Haoyu recalled the conversation at the airport cafe in the afternoon and kept mumbling the new terms he just heard today.
They didn't stay at the airport for long. After a brief chat, the three of them took a taxi to take Amamiya to the hotel she booked. Of course, Amamiya paid for the fare.
Amamiya Sugagi gave the three people a printout of her proposed investment term sheet and asked them to go back and study it carefully. She will visit her home tomorrow for formal discussions.
This is a relatively preliminary draft. It only lists the terms proposed by Amamiya Shiori. In many places, she deliberately opened her mouth to lower the psychological expectations of the three of them, so that there would be more room for negotiation.
For example, investing 2 million yuan to purchase 30% of MiHoYo's equity would have been impossible for them to accept when MiHoYo was unable to attract investment in its early days.
Even though MiHoYo is now a small company on the verge of death, the three founders are very ambitious. At the same time, the graduate students and brothers who graduated from Jiaotong University went to the Goose Farm and Pig Farm to earn high salaries and eat well, but they shrank in a small Why eat instant noodles in a residential building? It’s not because I believe that my idea will definitely succeed.
"How's it going?" Luo Yuhao asked Liu Wei from a corner of the subway car.
"How about what?" Liu Wei asked subconsciously.
"Miss Amamiya Shiori."
"Uh, what do you want to ask about?"
"What else could it be?" Luo Yuhao looked like a fool, "Do you think she is reliable or unreliable?"
"Oh, this," Liu Wei scratched his head, "I never thought that an investor would be like this. He has not graduated from college, and he is even an idol."
"How should I put it? The more I think about it, the more absurd it becomes. It feels like I can add it to the game by changing the character."
"Lao Cai, where are you?" Luo Yuhao asked Cai Haoyu.
"Uh, what?" Cai Haoyu looked up blankly.
"How do you feel about this Amamiya Shiori? Is it reliable or unreliable?"
"Well...how should I put it? It feels quite reliable. The intention is written in a decent way and what I say has some insights. As for the person, it matches the information on the Internet." Cai Haoyu paused and said.
"Is it possible that this is a cross-border fraud? A specially written webpage has compiled so much news. Look, she speaks Chinese so well. Have you ever seen a Japanese person who speaks Chinese so well? Yano Koji's Mandarin is far inferior to hers Bar!"
Koji Yano is a familiar face in anti-war dramas. He also served as the host of a toilet platform variety show for a period of time. His Chinese is already very good, but he is still far from Amamiya Shiori. Amamiya Shiori's spoken Chinese level is beyond that of many foreigners who say they "speak Chinese very well".
"Transnational fraud? It doesn't feel like it. She contacted us months in advance, flew here from Tokyo, and wrote a letter of intent. If she was really a liar, she would have been kicked out by the fraud gang long ago." Cai Haoyu retorted.
"Yes, the current telecommunications fraud is mainly carried out by the WW gang through text messages and group calls, right? You can hear the WW accent right away. If she is really a liar, such a time-consuming and labor-intensive fraud is too inefficient. Yes." Liu Wei agreed.
"What's more, what value do we have to be deceived now? It's not a listed company, and it requires a lot of trouble from scammers." Cai Haoyu added, "Don't worry, we have nothing worth being deceived. On the contrary, today It’s not a bad thing to cheat someone into drinking a few cups of coffee!”
"Oh, okay, I can only believe it." Luo Yuhao sighed, "But I always feel that there is still something wrong, it's weird. Think about it, we looked for investment for so long, but in the end only Boss Song invested in us One million. Later, we didn’t think about soliciting investment or publicity. Why did a foreign investor suddenly send us warmth when we were in the most difficult time? It’s pie in the sky, there must be something wrong behind it!”
"What's the question? Can you give me some options?" Cai Haoyu asked.
"Uh - I can't think of it." Luo Yuhao was asked, "But that doesn't mean there's no problem."
"Hey, Lao Luo, don't think that others are so sinister. Can't they just be optimistic about our MiHoYo?" Liu Wei has been writing programs, fixing bugs, and working as a customer service girl in the past few months. Tired and miserable, whoever invests at this time is an angel in his eyes.
"It's not impossible to have foreign investors. Think about it, when Alibaba was first established, it took Son's investment of US$20 million!" Cai Haoyu gave an example.
"But that was Ma Yun who took the initiative to find Masayoshi Son. We are completely reversed. It's weird no matter how you look at it." Luo Yuhao is currently an accountant in MiHoYo, so he is relatively sensitive to funds. "Although it is good to provide help in times of need, you must also be wary of the conditions behind it. What if there is a trap?"
"Here~ the conditions and traps are all here." Cai Haoyu handed the folder of the letter of intent to Luo Yuhao, "Go back and take a good look at it together."
"We can't do it alone. We need to find a lawyer." Luo Yuhao put the documents into his backpack.
"Lawyer," Cai Haoyu raised his head helplessly and looked at the ceiling of the carriage. Lawyer consultation is another expense. Life has become increasingly tight recently, and this investment is best achieved if the conditions are within their acceptable range.
While the three of them were taking the subway back to the company with excitement and anxiety, Amamiya Sugawara was lying on the hotel bed and had just finished the call with Mai Shiraishi.
After not seeing each other for a long time, Shiraishi Mai impatiently called Amamiya Souri to express her condolences during her work break. Is it going to be hot in Shanghai? Did you bring an umbrella? Have you checked into the hotel soon? Is the environment good? At one moment, I was worried that Amamiya Shiori would not be used to the food in Shanghai. At another time, I was worried about what to do if Amamiya Shiori got into trouble when she was alone in a foreign country and did not understand the language.
Amamiya Shiori patiently explained to her one by one.
The temperature in Shanghai is okay, not the hottest; I brought my parasol; I checked into the hotel; the environment is okay, a four-star hotel; not all Chinese food is spicy, there are also sour, sweet, salty and fresh. , it’s just that Sichuan food is relatively famous, which gives people the stereotype that all Chinese food is spicy; I am proficient in Japanese, Chinese and English, but I can’t understand the Shanghainese dialect of the locals, but otherwise I’m fine.
It didn’t take long for the conversation to turn into conversations about missing each other, saying, “I miss you, when will you come back, I really want to eat your cooking and so on.”
"Ah, I'm sorry, Xiaozhi, work has to start again!" Mai Shiraishi said when she heard the manager's shout from the distance.
"It's okay, Mai, go ahead and do your work first, and call me later in the evening. Mua~" Amamiya Soi blew a kiss to the phone.
Mai Shiraishi looked around nervously. There was no one around, so she cautiously approached the phone like a thief, "mua~"
Then quickly hang up the phone.
