Chapter 945: Reaching Investment Cooperation
Seeing that Mali Tao was looking seriously, Zhang Song did not disturb him. Instead, he picked up the landline phone on the table and called the front desk to have breakfast delivered.
"Look slowly, I asked someone to bring breakfast over, let's eat together."
"No, I've already eaten on the way here. Thank you Mr. Zhang for your kindness." Malitao said without raising his head.
Zhang Song didn't know that Malitao had also stayed up all night, and thought Malitao just got up early.
"When I came to the mainland, I found that many people here are very diligent and get up very early every day. Even the children have to get up very early and go to school at 7 o'clock. It's really incredible."
Ignoring Malitao any more, Zhang Song got up and went to the bathroom to wash up.
He wanted to create an appearance that he didn't really care about.
Soon, the hotel waiter brought breakfast to Zhang Song. After washing, Zhang Song ate breakfast leisurely.
It took Malitao a full hour to read more than thirty pages.
He finally understood why Zhang Song said this was an investment plan tailor-made for him.
In the entire investment plan, Dragon Soul Capital will occupy 80% of Alibaba's equity from the beginning, leaving only 20% of the shares for the founder.
If he wants more shares, he can only complete one strategic goal after another within the specified time as stipulated in the agreement. As long as he completes each set goal and develops the company,
Then you can get a part of the equity from Dragon Soul Capital for free.
For example, if Alibaba's market value is increased to 1 billion, 10% of the equity can be obtained from Dragon Soul Capital.
By listing Alibaba, you can also get 10% of the equity from Dragon Soul Capital.
Every goal is not easy and challenging.
But in exchange, Dragon Soul Capital also offered Malitao an investment amount that he could hardly refuse.
The first-phase investment of 50 million will be used to build Alibaba's new btoc e-commerce platform website, develop a platform for small merchants, and market promotion.
The second phase investment of 500 million Huaxia coins will be used to optimize the transaction process of the online e-commerce platform, build an after-sales system, improve logistics links, expand customer service functions, increase promotion efforts, optimize website functions, user subsidies, etc.
Such a huge amount of investment was something Malitao himself never expected.
It's just that this investment plan also has very strict requirements for him personally.
If Malitao agrees to this investment plan, it will also sign a non-competition agreement with Dragon Soul Capital, which clearly stipulates that Malitao must do its best to run Alibaba.
Once Malitao voluntarily leaves Alibaba, it will not be able to continue to engage in e-commerce work directly or indirectly within the next two years, and it will also need to pay Dragon Soul Capital's sky-high liquidated damages.
In other words, as long as he signed this investment plan, Malitao had only one way to keep moving forward.
When one is prosperous, both are prosperous; when one is lost, both are harmed.
"Mr. Zhang, I want to know, once I sign this investment agreement, whether Dragon Soul Capital will send someone to join the management of Alibaba Tao. I will say some things directly. I don't want anyone to interfere with my decision-making.
There will never be room for two tigers in one mountain here."
Zhang Song heard this and said softly: "To give you such a large amount of funds, we will definitely send a financial staff to Ali Tao to supervise the use of investment funds. Apart from this, we will not send anyone to Ali Tao again.
The management will not have any interference with you."
"You only need to submit regular work summaries to our Dragon Soul Capital in accordance with the requirements in the agreement. However, our Dragon Soul salary retains a veto right to prevent the company from making major decision-making mistakes in the future."
"How about it? It's very relaxed, isn't it? You are the only tiger on the whole mountain."

It only dispatches financial personnel to supervise the use of funds, and does not make any interference in Alibaba's management.
After hearing this, Malitao finally felt relieved.
"Dragon Soul Capital is really different. No wonder there are so many people outside trying to get investment from Dragon Soul Capital," Malitao said.
Entrepreneurs want to get funds from investors, but they don’t want investors to dictate too much.
When investors invest money, they are worried that the entrepreneur will squander it carelessly, and they are also worried that the entrepreneur will have decision-making problems, causing their investment to fail and lose all their money, so they always want to monitor or intervene in the entrepreneur.
This is a natural antagonistic relationship between the two.
Many of the big investment banks outside are notorious for their strong desire for control. It is not uncommon for them to forcibly intervene in companies.
So, later on, many major investment banks even decided on the company's future development path when making investments.
After the investment, what will the money be used for, when to raise secondary financing, what direction will it develop, how to increase the valuation, how to IPO, how to go public to make money, and even the final liquidation and exit, all are planned completely.
"Of course, we at Dragon Soul Capital focus on long-term interests. The better the company develops, the greater its potential, and the greater its future benefits. At this point, our interests are the same as those of the entrepreneurs."
“It’s not our style at Dragon Soul Capital to fish from the marsh,” Zhang Song said.
"How about it? You have already read the investment plan. Do you accept it? I need you to give me an accurate answer now."
Malitao looked down at the investment plan on the table.
"There are several places in this investment plan that I think need to be renegotiated." Malitao looked at Zhang Song and said.
In the entire investment plan, there are many agreed contents and many breach of contract clauses involved, some of which are quite severe.
Malitao wants to fight for it again.
But Zhang Song was never willing to give him such an opportunity. The entire investment agreement was carefully designed, and Dragon Soul Capital's top legal counsel went through it several times before it was finally finalized. How could it be changed so easily?
"There is no room for discussion in this investment plan. You have to know that our Dragon Soul Capital has to spend more than 500 million before and after. This is not gambling, but it is better than gambling. We bet that you can succeed, and you also
You have to show your sincerity, that's all."
Zhang Song directly rejected Malitao's idea and said unceremoniously.
Malitao was silent for a long time, then his heart suddenly changed and he made a decision.
"Okay, I agree!" Malitao said seriously.
Zhang Song is right, Dragon Soul Capital is actually going to spend 550 million to invest in his Alibaba.
Such a large amount of money, invested in any IT company, is enough to push the other company to the position of a first-class Internet company in China.
If you want to get this money, it will be unrealistic if you don't show some attitude.
"Wise choice!" Zhang Song said.
Taking out the gel pen and ink pad, Zhang Song handed them directly to Malitao.
"After signing this agreement, Dragon Soul Capital will first allocate a sum of funds to Alibaba, find a decent office building, and move the company there first, and then we will arrange a grand investment signing ceremony to give
After Ali Tao builds momentum, our financial staff will bring funds to join Ali Tao."
"No problem." Malitao responded directly after hearing this.
Picking up the pen, Malitao began to sign the thirty-plus page investment plan.
Seeing that Malitao had all signed, Zhang Song said: "With the help of our Dragon Soul Capital, I believe that your Alitao will definitely become one of the best e-commerce companies in China."
"For this goal, I will definitely do my best!" Malitao said.
After signing, Malitao felt much more relaxed, and began to look forward to the future in his heart. The first amount of capital was as high as 50 million. He really had to think carefully about how to spend so much money.
First of all, let’s pay the brothers the salary they are owed for several months.
In the past, poverty was so miserable that eight people lived in one room and shared three computers. Now they finally no longer have to live like this.
Malitao is planning to move out of the urban village as soon as possible.
