Floating Perfume Shop

Xiao Chongyun was amazed: "Our company's formula is worthless, what do you want to do?"

The gangster stood up, did not answer immediately, and looked up and down: "Brother, what is your surname?"

"Miangui's surname is Zhou, Zhou Tianhao."

"Brother Zhou, I think you are an honest man." The gangster dragged him to the back street outside the community, lit a cigarette, and handed him one: "Are you short of money?"

Xiao Chongyun pointed to the coat that he had worn for two years and was a little fuzzy: "It's missing."

"Really short of money?"

Xiao Chongyun said sincerely: "It's really lacking."

This sentence is telling the truth, because looking at the recent increasing sales, he feels that OEM is not an option, and hopes to acquire a production company of his own, so he is particularly short of money.Because of this incident, Xiao Chongyun booked the economy class for Xiaogui recently when he signed a contract on a business trip, without any luggage allowance.

"There is a big boss who has taken a fancy to the formula of your small company, but your boss doesn't sell it." The gangster stretched out five fingers, "If you can get it, this amount."

After Xiao Chongyun returned to the company, he sat on the head of the bed, took this folder, and dug out all the recipes of "Afterlife".Zhang Song said that the Internet in his room was not good, so he insisted on sitting on the sofa in Xiao Chongyun's room with his laptop in his arms, and wrote the proposal.He typed silently for a long time, finally raised his head and asked, "What are you doing?"

Xiao Chongyun took out one of the many files: "Do you still remember the perfume 'loveless'? It was launched when our studio was first established, and it didn't sell very well. Someone asked me to buy this formula yesterday, and it was only 5000 yuan."

"He doesn't know how to do it." Zhang Song said.

"I'm quite ignorant." Xiao Chongyun said sadly, "My incense recipe has arrived, and it only sells for 5000 yuan."

Two days later, he called the gangster who had blocked him at the door and made an appointment to meet behind the newsstand not far from the company.Xiao Chongyun bought a morning newspaper, put a formula in it, and handed it to the gangster: "Tell you, our company is tightly controlled, and the formulas are all locked in the safe. It is very difficult to deal with."

The gangster lit a cigarette for him: "Brother Zhou, look at his name, he is a man of great success."

"No, no." Xiao Chongyun said modestly, "I have asked someone to figure out the name, and they said that the characters are not clean, and the five elements are lacking in mind."

The next morning when Xiao Chongyun got up to eat noodles.After leaving the noodle shop, I saw a gangster in flowery shorts waiting for him by the electric pole outside the shop, carrying a black plastic bag: "Shall we find a place to talk?"

The little gangster took him to a rental room with all kinds of turns and turns.There is only one bed and one TV in the room, and there is a bowl of unfinished instant noodles on the TV cabinet.The gangster walked in and handed him the plastic bag: "Our boss got your formula, and he is very satisfied. How is it, are you satisfied?"

The plastic bag was very heavy. Xiao Chongyun lowered his head and opened it for a glance. Inside were neat stacks of pink RMB, not five thousand, but fifty thousand.He pulled up a small bench and sat in the middle of the room: "Satisfied, very satisfied."

The gangster squatted in front of him: "Brother, what exactly are you doing in this company?"

"Originally it's for perfume." Xiao Chongyun rubbed his nose, "Because my sense of smell is not very good, I went to control the chapter and the safe."

"That's right." The gangster said, "My boss is still interested in an old recipe of yours, but it's a bit difficult to get. If you get it, the price will increase by ten times."

Xiao Chongyun went through all the formulas he had written a few years ago in his mind, but he couldn't think of any perfume that was so valuable.

"December." The gangster said, "You Xiao Zhang always used this perfume to participate in a show, what is it called...perfume newcomer show? Our boss likes this formula very much, can you get it?"

Xiao Chongyun said let me think about it.

He went home and thought about it for a few days, and felt that something was wrong.Xiao Chongyun originally thought that there was some low-level competitor who wanted to counterfeit the work of "Afterlife" and find someone to buy the formula, so he used the worthless formula to contact and find out the details.However, the generosity of the other party's money was beyond his expectation.He instinctively felt that this boss had a lot of background, but he didn't know who this person was and what purpose he had.

The first thing that can be judged is that he is not Zhang Wenshan, because Zhang Wenshan is an extremely picky person.It is impossible that the people he sent had not heard of Zhou Tianhao's name.Besides, if Zhang Wenshan is eyeing the "afterlife", whether he can continue to hide behind the company's back is a question.Furthermore, Loveless is his old work back then, and it didn't sell very well. Even if he got it, it would have no commercial value.Now that the technology is so advanced and such a simple perfume, if you want to imitate it, you can get the formula of the seven-point image from a small laboratory for about 3000 yuan, and you don’t need to spend so much money at all.The other party should just use Loveless to test whether he can really get in touch with the incense prescription information of "afterlife".

What they want is "December".

This is the only perfume with a cycle of scents that has appeared on the market in the past few years.

However, the cyclic incense rank is only valuable in academic research, and does not have a particularly large market prospect.After all, the fragrance should be stable. Who wants the breath on their body to change all the time during a dance.After thinking about it, Xiao Chongyun felt that the matter was not as simple as he thought at first, so he broke the connection with Hua Pants.

Another reason for breaking this connection is because Xiao Chongyun is busy.

"Afterlife" wants to have his own factory, so he has to invest money, and the kid's initial loan is only 20.Xiao Chongyun's idea is to find an investor to solve part of the financial problem.For this, he drove the little devil to one meal after another, went to meetings again and again, and put a long line to catch big fish. Unexpectedly, instead of catching an angel investor, he caught the CEO of Lotus.

After the last farewell in the parking lot, Xiao Chongyun hadn't heard from Zhou Tianhao for a long time.That day he was upstairs, using a newly bought computer without security surveillance, watching a short video of neighboring countries and friendly countries, when he suddenly heard Zhang Song slapping the table downstairs, with a serious tone: "We are not short of money!"

He turned off the computer and went downstairs.

Zhou Tianhao and his two secretaries were drinking coffee on the sofa in the meeting room.The summer wind is slightly warm, and Mr. Zhou of Lotus is wearing a white shirt and black suit very formally. He probably thinks it is very formal, and he also wears a gold and red tie.The fabric of the clothes was very thin, so when he stood up, put his hands on the table, and looked into the kid's eyes, he looked narrow-waisted and long-legged, which was quite eye-catching.

"You are not short of money." Zhou Tianhao asked Zhang Song with a smile, "Then who is the one who is looking for investors all over the world and wants to build their own production line?"

"There is no shortage of money." The kid said.

"Oh, then you dare to say in front of your teacher that you are not short of money?"

Xiao Chongyun just pushed the door open and entered, Zhang Song sat down on his seat: "Let's talk about financing."

Zhou Tianhao raised his head and glanced at Xiao Chongyun: "Senior Xiao, I'm here to discuss business with you again."

The financing plan proposed by Zhou Tianhao is very harsh, ranging from the capital ratio and profit sharing to the specific intervention and decision-making of the "afterlife" operation, every bit of profit has to be squeezed through the teeth.Xiao Chongyun only read the condition once, and wanted to throw the manuscript back, saying that this cooperation cannot be done.

But he couldn't, because apart from Zhou Tianhao, there was really no one else who was willing to invest in this small company.

Business is always discussed at the dinner table, Xiao Chongyun invited Zhou Tianhao to dinner, and ordered a quiet restaurant that was convenient for talking.Amid the candlelight and the sound of the piano, he pointed out the terms of the contract one by one, saying that these were not acceptable.

Zhou Tianhao asked him, which one is not acceptable?

"'Afterlife' must maintain an absolute controlling stake, so our financing share will not exceed 20.00%."

There is a theory of hostile takeovers in enterprises, which means that companies in the same industry use unethical means to maliciously inject capital into competitors, become the major shareholders of the company, and finally obtain the management decision-making power of the other party, strangling an excellent enterprise on the way forward.This is what Xiao Chongyun was wary of.

He pointed to the contract one by one, explaining in soft words, Zhou Tianhao folded his hands, leaned on the table, and listened quietly.Xiao Chongyun finally finished speaking and stopped.He has already asked for the price, and he is waiting for Mr. Zhou to pay back the money.

Zhou Tianhao said: "If you look at the terms so carefully, it seems that you are really short of money. If I don't inject capital as Lotus, and invest personal capital, everything will be as you wish, and the total ratio will not exceed 20.00%. Guaranteed 'afterlife 'Still holding the controlling stake unshakable - what can you give me?"

"Income." Xiao Chongyun explained, "Your personal investment will gain great value, according to our financial statements..."

"This is not what I want. After hearing so much from you, I have only been thinking about one thing." Zhou Tianhao shook his head, "Senior Xiao, your gesture of describing a bright future is very touching. I have been thinking about it since just now. , if I could tear your clothes off now and kiss your half-exposed collarbone, it would be great."

Xiao Chongyun stood up, turned around and was about to leave.

Fang Yi stood up, his arm was grabbed.Zhou Tianhao grabbed his hand very hard, bent his eyes and looked at him, there seemed to be countless smoke and water vapor in his eyes, and he couldn't see the bottom: "I said that we are talking about business, and we will pay back the money on the spot, don't rush away .”

"I happen to be free tomorrow, and I want to watch a movie. If you go with me," he picked up the contract, and casually ticked off a few items on the paper with a pen, "I will make concessions in these places."

The movie Zhou Tianhao chose was a tragedy. The male protagonist fell in love at first sight, and they were about to get married, and the war broke out.The male protagonist fought to the death on the battlefield, and finally returned home alive, only to find that the girl had forgotten him and married someone else.

At the wedding, she was wearing a white wedding dress and asked the man in rags who had trekked back home: "Who are you and where are you from? Poor thing, would you like a glass of wine?"

"Senior," Zhou Tianhao asked Xiao Chongyun in the dark auditorium, "Say, do I want to drink that glass of wine?"

When the movie ended that day, everyone left, but Zhou Tianhao was still sitting in the auditorium, facing the lights that were on and the screen that was off.

"When I was studying at Ji Fangdan Ruoler, I was actually a little gangster. The family was divided and united, and no one cared about me. I formed an underground gang with two almost depraved classmates to deceive this student. Money, copying that junior's homework. Life is so muddled, I never thought that I would be able to graduate."

"At that time, there was a very talented senior." Zhou Tianhao said, "probably similar to your achievements in school at that time. He told me, I am unique and very talented, and I may become an excellent perfumer in the future. He brought I have read a lot of books, and it can be said that my current perfume concept was shaped by him back then."

"Then you met a good man." Xiao Chongyun said.

"Fart. Later, I really made some achievements. I went to him. Do you know what he told me?" Zhou Tianhao stared closely at Xiao Chongyun's eyes. There is a person like me. Let me work hard and make great achievements, so that I may be remembered by him."

"Later, I became the second-in-command of Lotus. I couldn't be regarded as an unknown person, so I went to him again. Guess what he said this time? He said that he had a student who was unique and very talented. To be a good perfumer, let me take care of you."

Zhou Tianhao asked: "Senior, do you think such a person is scum?"
