Chapter 486: Chapter 271: Passing By_3 Chapter 486: Chapter 271: Passing By_3 Shen Yuyan was stunned.
After knowing Guo Liyuan for so many years, it was the first time she saw her this excited.
From what she knew, Mortals, rooted in the short drama market, had already secured two term sheets, and normal financing shouldn’t make her this excited, should it?
Instinct told her there must be some change involved.
She opened Xu Qing’s chat window.
Immediately, a photo caught her eye, and Shen Yuyan’s gaze slightly lost focus.
Tang Song sat at the center of the conference table, wearing a white shirt, looking handsome and confident, his body radiating strong self-assurance.
On either side of him were men and women of calm demeanor.
The men’s suits were crisp, the women’s suits were elegant and sharp.
Their eyes showed shrewdness and decisiveness, full of presence.
After reading Xu Qing’s message, the corner of Shen Yuyan’s eyes twitched.
Industry analysts, financial analysts, legal advisors, data analysts, operations management experts…
This… was this Tang Song’s investment team?
Compared to his setup, Win-win Technology seemed a bit too amateurish.
But how could this be?
Where had he found these people? Did he hire a specialized consulting service company?
Soon, a woman to the left of Tang Song caught her attention.
Shen Yuyan was just about to send a message to ask her best friend for some financing details.
[Qingqing: “Yanyan, it’s so frustrating, that Lin Muxue really is a big green tea, wait till you’re back, I have a lot to rant about with you!”]
[Qingqing: “The financing for Mortals went very smoothly, but our company proposed some amendments, we just finished negotiating, and the formal signing of the term sheet is scheduled for this afternoon, I’ll send you the signing photos later. “]
Shen Yuyan immediately replied, “I received the message from Liyuan, just relax and wait for your 2% equity incentive. Are you at the scene? What’s the final company valuation? How much did Tang Song invest?”
[Qingqing: “You might not believe me when I say this, but I was also shocked, the pre-financing valuation of Mortals actually reached 40 million yuan!”]
The valuation of the term sheets Mortals had received previously was between 30 and 35 million yuan, of course, because the investment institutions significantly reduced it.
But unexpectedly, Tang Song was generous, giving a high price of 40 million yuan, no wonder Guo Liyuan was so excited.
[Qingqing: “Besides, Tang Song personally invested 24 million yuan, holding 38% of shares, post-investment…”]
Seeing the number 24 million, Shen Yuyan’s face suddenly froze.
She swiped her finger across the screen, repeating to ensure she had not misread.
Her heart violently twitched.
24 million? Giving out 24 million in cash all at once? How could that be possible!?
Even those billionaires couldn’t pull out such a large amount of cash at once, their assets were more in shares, industries.
Taking a deep breath, she typed shakily, “Is this money supposed to be injected in multiple installments? Are there any rigid performance requirements?”
[Qingqing: “No, after the DD (due diligence) ends, we’ll sign the investment agreement, all to be paid within a week. You didn’t see the expressions of our big boss and Liyuan, they almost wanted to kneel to Tang Song and call him ‘appreciative of herself.'”]
[Qingqing: “Got to go, Lin Muxue is calling me to have dinner with Tang Song.”]
Shen Yuyan stood still, her face growing increasingly pale.
The screen of the phone gradually darkened.
“Yuyan, what are you daydreaming about here?” Hou Shaoyuan, his face slightly flushed, stepped over and handed her a glass of wine, “Here’s a toast to us, as the seed investors of Youjie Housekeeping, I’ve watched it thrive under your management, may we continue to work together and achieve great success!”
Shen Yuyan silently took the glass, but did not clink glasses with him.
Her lips pressed against the rim of the glass, she tipped her head back forcefully.
“Glug glug—” she downed half the glass of champagne in one go.
An increasingly tipsy Hou Shaoyuan quickly showed concern, “What’s wrong, Yuyan? Are you okay?”
“I’m fine.” Shen Yuyan pursed her lips, her eyes flickering with indescribable emotions.
Guo Liuyuan, her once inconspicuous classmate with her company now valued at 64 million yuan, had far outpaced her.
Even more unbearable for her was the implication behind Tang Song’s 24 million investment.
Now that Youjie Housekeeping had signed the TS, even if she wanted to back out,
the other partners wouldn’t agree, nor would Tang Song invest in her anymore.
After all, he had clearly stated that if the founding team didn’t get along, he absolutely would not invest.
She suddenly realized where that unease during her confrontation with Tang Song in the restaurant at North City Garden had come from.
It was intuition warning her.
A truly life-changing opportunity, an opportunity she had long dreamed of, had just passed her by.
Now, outside the window, the blue sky and white clouds of Imperial City seemed especially harsh.
Shen Yuyan’s eyes gradually reddened.
