Looking at the girl in front of him, Lü Chunping smiled and joked, "What? Do you want to invest?"
He was just joking with the other party, after all, he couldn't possibly get investment from a teenager, and he had no such intention at all.
However, Yuan Mengge nodded: "Sure, I'll provide the money and you provide the labor. Do you think you'll want to kick me out just because I only provide money and not any labor after you get rich?"
She knew that many founders of large companies cherished the businesses they had built from scratch.
I don't want anyone to touch the fruits of my hard work.
This feeling of possessiveness becomes even stronger, especially as one's career grows larger.
She didn't know the boss's character either, after all, they used to be from two different circles and didn't know each other.
Yuan Mengge's words made Lü Chunping pause for a moment, then he laughed and said, "How could that be? I'm the kind of person who repays kindness, and we always sign contracts, which are legally binding. It's not something you can just kick out whenever you want."
He thought the girl was just joking with him, so he didn't take it to heart.
Although his career has been stagnant lately and he's feeling down, he wasn't angry that Yuan Mengge, a young girl, struck up a conversation with him so casually, which shows he's quite well-mannered.
Yuan Mengge looked at him and said, "To give you an example, if I give you 500,000 yuan as start-up capital, how much brand dividends and group stock do you plan to give me when your company grows bigger?"
If an ordinary person were to give him 500,000 yuan, they would become the boss and have the other person work for them.
But she knew that Lü Chunping was not willing to work for others, so no matter how hard or tiring it was, he wanted to start his own business.
I only contribute money, while he contributes his business acumen, manpower, energy, and dedication.
Yuan Mengge didn't want to take advantage of him for nothing. She was giving him 500,000 yuan now, and in ten years he could build a company with an annual profit of tens of millions.
Upon hearing her mention brand dividends and group shares, Lü Chunping thoughtfully said, "If it were me, I would split it 50/50. If you only contribute money but nothing else—no manpower, no effort, no strategy—then I can only give you 50%. After all, although I didn't contribute money, I did contribute quite a bit, right?"
Moreover, a brand? A group? Compared to his current small workshop, that's still a distant goal.
After hearing his words, Yuan Mengge nodded: "Okay, I'll pay for it. Can you draft the contract this afternoon? The money will be in my account once the contract is signed."
After hearing her words, Lü Chunping looked at her with some confusion and asked, "What money? What contract?"
Wasn't he just joking? Could this girl be teasing him?
At this moment, Li Xue'e also sat down, observing Lü Chunping's expression up close.
She asked Yuan Mengge in a low voice, "Is he the person you're looking for?"
And she's asking for 500,000 right off the bat? 500,000? Where did this girl get so much money?
Li Xue'e looked at her with a face full of question marks.
Yuan Mengge nodded.
She looked at Lü Chunping and said, "I'm not joking, my intuition is very accurate. I feel that you will definitely succeed in the future, so I want to get a share of the pie in advance and reserve a piece of your future career plan."
Hearing her say that she would definitely succeed in the future made Lü Chunping very happy.
He didn't take the rest of the words seriously, and simply said, "Thank you for your kind words, and I hope they come true."
Seeing that he clearly didn't believe her, Yuan Mengge said, "I'm telling the truth. I'll invest in you. I'm not lying to you. Don't disbelieve me."
Lu Chunping looked at her, both amused and exasperated: "Then tell me, where did you get so much money? Are you a rich girl? You don't seem like it."
If someone her age could actually come up with hundreds of thousands of dollars at once, she must be a young lady from a wealthy family, right?
He'd seen it all before; girls from those families were always dressed beautifully, wearing expensive clothes, riding in luxury cars, and eating at upscale restaurants.
Unlike her, who was dressed plainly and sat in this small fast food restaurant eating just like him, she didn't look like a rich girl at all.
Yuan Mengge said to him earnestly, "Although I am not from a wealthy family, I do have the money, and I would like to invest in your business."
Back then, Lü Chunping earned hundreds of thousands of yuan in just two years with only 30,000 yuan in start-up capital.
He has a very good business sense.
Moreover, they have achieved success in the food industry.
The four major sectors in China—clothing, food, housing, and transportation—are all traditional, established industries, resulting in fierce competition.
Unlike the emerging electronics industry in recent years, which has less competition and good luck.
“Actually, I came to Wenlan City specifically to find you,” Yuan Mengge added.
Seeing that she sounded genuine and that she had come specifically to see him, Lü Chunping couldn't help but ask in surprise, "You... came specifically to see me?"
At this moment, Li Xue'e nodded and chimed in, "Yes, we came here to find you. We spent a long time wandering around the coconut grove this morning. We heard you like going there, right?"
Lu Chunping hesitated for a moment, then looked puzzled: "I do like going to that place... but you came looking for me? Is that true? How do you know me?"
Yuan Mengge nodded: "It's true. I've prepared the money, it's just a matter of whether you believe me or not."
Lu Chunping looked at her suspiciously: "Why are you looking for me? We shouldn't know each other, right?"
He is indeed short of money, and he is the one who goes to others for help. Most people reject him outright when they hear that he is looking for investment.
Some didn't directly refuse, but after learning about it, they said they'd think about it and then disappeared without a trace.
Now suddenly a stranger contacts him, saying he wants to invest in him.
He was happy that someone would come to him, but it would be a different story if the person was a teenager.
Yuan Mengge said, "I overheard someone mentioning you. You've been borrowing money for a while now, and the news has spread. Although most people just say it as a joke, I've done some research on you, and I think you're quite capable."
Upon hearing these words, Lü Chunping's resolve wavered.
But when I saw Yuan Mengge's face, I felt like I must be crazy to believe a child.
Seeing that the other person was hesitant, Yuan Mengge took out a notebook from her schoolbag and wrote down her school, class, and name on the paper.
He said, "Think about it. If you need this money, come find me."
