Shen Ya was unwilling to be defeated by this woman and tried his best to minimize the amount of shares that would be lost.
"Fifty million to exchange for 25% of the shares, Mr. Chen, Mr. Lan, I think this price is more appropriate."
Although Chen Ze saved his daughter today, he must separate emotion from business acumen; one cannot let emotions dictate business decisions.
Therefore, minimizing the amount of shares that can be released means that he can earn more money in the future.
Chen Ze, meanwhile, continued drinking his tea as if it were none of his business.
Lan Shuiyao parted her lips slightly and said firmly, "President Shen, the offer of 30% of the shares for 50 million is based on the current operating status of your company. So if you only want to exchange for 25% of the shares, then we will invest less money."
Shen Ya sighed inwardly. This woman was truly a formidable negotiator, but in order to obtain more funds, he had no choice but to compromise and accept Lan Shuiyao's proposal.
"President Lan, I never expected that you, a woman, would be such a skilled negotiator. I admire you greatly."
Lan Shuiyao smiled elegantly: "President Shen, does that mean you agree to our proposal?"
Shen Ya spread his hands and said, "There's nothing we can do. The company is currently short of funds. If there's no fresh blood injected, the company's cash flow will break down by the end of the month."
"Mr. Shen, our company will not only invest money, but also provide you with strategic guidance for your company's development and help you with your loan needs."
There was also a need for loans. Upon hearing this, Shen Ya's eyes lit up. It seemed that investing with them was the right decision.
Shen Ya extended his hand and said, "President Lan, I wish us a pleasant cooperation!"
Lan Shuiyao extended her slender hand and shook hands with Shen Ya: "It's a pleasure to cooperate with you, President Shen. Our investment is definitely more cost-effective than you taking out a bank loan."
Then, Shen Ya shook hands with Chen Ze again. Soon, the secretary brought over the printed contract and placed it in front of them.
The two of them signed and stamped the contract together, and after signing, everyone's faces were filled with smiles.
Chen Ze handed the car keys to Shen Qianqian and instructed, "Go and get the laptop bag from the hood of my car."
Shen Qianqian responded and jogged to get her laptop bag. After getting the bag, Chen Ze took out his laptop, inserted his online banking card, and prepared to transfer money to his Vipshop account.
But Shen Ya interrupted him, saying, "President Chen, please lend me another 50 million. I'm afraid 50 million might not be enough."
"Can."
Chen Ze looked up at Lan Shuiyao: "President Lan, go print out a loan certificate and bring it back for President Chen to sign."
"Okay, boss."
Not long after, Lan Shuiyao handed the loan certificate to Shen Ya for signature.
Shen Ya glanced at the loan agreement; the interest rate was only 0.3%. He felt a surge of emotion. During this time, he had been going back and forth between the four major banks, begging like a grandson, enduring many twists and turns and being looked down upon. Only he knew the bitterness he had felt.
He quickly signed his name and handed it to Lan Shuiyao.
Chen Ze did not hesitate for long and immediately transferred 100 million yuan to his company.
Soon, the servants brought over the delicious dishes one by one and gently placed them on the table.
A fragrant aroma wafted over, and Chen Ze's stomach, to his dismay, began to rumble loudly.
"Pfft."
The two girls present laughed.
Chen Ze awkwardly explained, "I like to exercise, so I get hungry quickly."
Shen Ya smiled and said, "President Chen, I like sports just like you, especially morning runs. Come on, let's all sit down and have lunch together."
Everyone took their seats, and Shen Ya was the first to pick up her chopsticks: "Eat up, don't be shy, make yourself at home."
Shen Qianqian placed a piece of Dongpo pork on Chen Ze's plate and said with a smile, "Chen Ze, thank you so much for today. Without you, my future days might have been filled with darkness."
"No need to thank me. I just happened to be passing by and happened to be there. Anyone else would have helped."
The meal lasted half an hour. After they were full and satisfied, Chen Ze drove Lan Shuiyao away from Villa No. 5 in a Bugatti supercar.
Shen Ya and her father waved goodbye at the gate.
On the way, Lan Shuiyao asked Chen Ze curiously, "Boss, why did you lend President Shen so much money so easily?"
He couldn't possibly tell Lan Shuiyao that Vipshop would grow into a multi-billion dollar conglomerate in the future.
Chen Ze smiled slightly and explained, "First of all, I think Shen Ya is a capable person; he's just facing temporary difficulties. Besides, this is also a kind of investment for us. If he succeeds in the future, the returns will be substantial."
Lan Shuiyao nodded thoughtfully.
Then, Chen Ze continued, "Secondly, he's working on the brand reselling section, which is currently unavailable. If he can perfect this brand, I believe Vipshop will definitely become a commercial behemoth in the future."
Lan Shuiyao shook her head, puzzled. "But according to my preliminary investigation, their company is not doing very well at present. They are also being suppressed by Taobao and JD.com, and their situation is very difficult."
"That's because Shen Ya is too ambitious. You should find out that he's not only doing clothing brand reselling, but also selling electronics, cosmetics, and daily necessities. These things touch on the interests of Taobao and JD.com, so it's no wonder he's being suppressed."
"Should we remind him to focus on one or two brand reselling services? Wouldn't that help Vipshop accelerate its development?"
"No need. Shen Ya is a smart man. He should realize this soon. Let's just let him develop on his own."
"However, our company currently has investments in several real estate companies, including LeiYun power banks, Xiangya which produces mobile phone batteries and electric vehicle batteries, and especially BaiTu Company which produces electric vehicles. You should visit them often."
