157: Chapter 60 Does She Have High Expectations for ?
No matter how tender and sweet the conversations are between entrepreneurs and investors, when it cos to forking out money, it’s all just bubbles.
Money and benefits are the most critical statents.
All other words are empty.
Cheng Daqi’s various tricks, deceits, performances, and entanglents have all been used, and Temir is not unaware of what a bastard he is.
This man has courage, but it’s the kind of courage that relies on using others to stab with a knife.
This man is steadfast, but his steadfastness exists only where there are benefits.
This man is sincere, but he uses sincerity as a weapon, and his thods are quite unscrupulous.
The more she thought about it, the more frustrated Temir beca, rubbing her hair irritably.
“Alright, stop looking at , I don’t know how much to invest either.”
As she said this, the dark-haired rich lady paused and with a haunting tone added,
“Cheng, until now I haven’t seen even a single page of a business plan or anything else from you, do you know your actions are the sa as fraud?
No, you’re even worse than a fraudster, at least a fraudster performs a complete act when deceiving others…
only Lisa, that big fool, would agree so quickly.
You at least ought to let know how much money your company really needs, right?”
Feeling awkward, Cheng Daqi touched his chin and replied,
“Eight hundred thousand, I guess.
I need to hire a professional photographer in Arica, and a few other employees.
The cost of hiring in Arica is not low, a team of five people, their salaries might well exceed sixty thousand a month.
Then there’s equipnt purchase, office leasing, all the costs together, at least seventy to eighty thousand a month.
Eight hundred thousand, that should be enough for this subsidiary to burn through in ten months.”
Cheng Daqi was very sly, he hadn’t yet made any specific commitnts about the company’s future profit prospects.
In his plan, Shanhaiguan dia’s Arican subsidiary wasn’t created to make money.
He needed this company to gather enough influencers, and then promote his ace plan.
Enthusiastic Hua Country youth Cheng Daqi, worried himself sick for the fertility cause of the Arican people.
But he certainly wouldn’t scam his own friends.
The subsidiary might not be profitable, but in the future, it could go public or be sold off together with the parent company, ensuring Lisa and Temir’s investnts would make a huge profit.
The sale wouldn’t affect the promotion of the ace plan, it would be enough to put people in mid-level managent positions who agree with the ace plan philosophy.
“Hiring five people, monthly salary of sixty thousand?
Have you gone mad, or have I, are Arican dollars so worthless now?”
As an experienced capitalist, Temir was well aware of the cost of hiring in Arica.
Twelve thousand a month for one person, she could easily drive a bus to top universities and recruit batch after batch of employees!
The cost of labor on the West Coast is not low, but your asking price is outrageous.
The so-called subsidiary hasn’t even been established, and the existing parent company is just a small workshop that’s just started.
Cheng, don’t be too excessive!
“Shouldn’t I, as the general manager of the subsidiary, also draw a salary?”
Cheng Daqi replied with confidence, feeling that his capabilities should be properly respected.
“How much do you want to take each month?”
Both the dark-haired rich lady and Lisa were curious as to how much this shaless bastard would dare to pay himself.
“Twenty thousand a month, that should still be reasonable, right?”
The shaless general manager had no awareness that his high salary would break the investors’ defense, Cheng Daqi really didn’t realize that twenty thousand dollars would shock his two investors.
“Scumbag!”
Temir burst out, admitting she had underestimated Cheng Daqi’s shalessness.
“Cheng, my understanding is, shouldn’t startup companies be tight-fisted and strive for their cause?
Salaries can completely wait until the business grows bigger in the future, right?”
Lisa began to doubt if it was her thinking that was flawed.
Cheng Daqi’s demands were just too outrageous.
The investors put in eight hundred thousand dollars, not an excessive sum, but you should show them so basic respect, right?
You want to take a monthly salary of twenty thousand dollars for yourself, and will you then follow the path of public funds embezzlent, squandering the company’s money in other areas?
“Twenty thousand dollars might sound like a lot, but actually, to , it’s just a small number, however, if you find it unacceptable, then let’s set it at two thousand a month.”
Cheng Daqi really didn’t care about such a small amount of money.
If the investors had objections, he’d reduce it tenfold.
Two thousand a month, even slaves are paid more than that.
That was his sincerity.
Cheng Daqi wasn’t short of money, or rather, he wouldn’t be short of money in the future.
Shanhaiguan back in his ho country was the real money maker, plus, he had PLAN B, which was Li Haiping’s side project.
Even if both of those fell through, he still had the advantage of future information, and there were opportunities in other industries to try to seize.
Salaries are not important.
“Cheng, there’s no need to go so low, let it be ten thousand a month, Mi’er, what do you think?”
As Cheng Daqi’s first partner and good friend, Lisa still had a high opinion of Cheng Daqi; she thought two thousand dollars was too low.
Temir was on the verge of exploding with anger.
“You are an idiot, he has nothing, just a glib tongue, wants eighty thousand and a high salary, ha!”
The dark-haired rich lady was in full business mode, her tone extrely sharp.
“You’re doing MCN.
Do you have any special competitive advantage in Arica?
Or are you saying you can debut directly in Holy Valley and hang the earnings on the subsidiary’s na?
I trust you, so I asked how much you need to raise, but what about your attitude?
Cheng, your current attitude is: you want to get sothing for nothing, and also hope that Lisa and I trust you unconditionally!”
Cheng Daqi was silenced by the dark-haired rich lady’s words, realizing he might have made the situation a bit too complicated.
