146 The Angel Investor Has Something To Ask!
Everyone was not far from giving up, but Xie Yan had completely lost his confidence after seeing Ai Tingya’s project.
“I’ve already thought about this. If I give the company to my father, everyone can still get some money.” Xie Yan felt a lump in his throat. “I can’t let you guys work for a while and not get a single cent.”
Xie Yan’s words made everyone fall silent.
Who would want to lie flat? Moreover, Xie Yan was telling the truth. They had really suffered losses for a long time.
!!Among the dozen or so people standing in the office, even though there were differences in ability, they could easily find a part-time job with their reputation as a famous school.
They had been with Xie Yan for half a year. They had often stayed up late at night but it did not matter if they could not get a single cent.
Everyone knew that it was not easy to start a business after all. They did not walk on the path of prosperity from the beginning.
The saddest thing was that they had no other choice. Encouragement at such a time was also a form of self-deception.
Xie Yan looked up at the silent crowd and gradually fell into despair.
He looked at the bespectacled boy who was encouraging him and said, “To be honest, if there’s a way to make the company persist, I’ll definitely try it. I’ll do anything as long as it can revive the company.”
The boy lowered his head and did not speak. His eyes were red as he took off his eyes and covered them stubbornly.
Knock-
Knock, knock-
The knock on the door interrupted the heavy atmosphere in the room. Xie Yan took two deep breaths, adjusted his emotions, and opened the door.
Luo Feng stood at the door and waved at him with a smile. “Hello, Student Xie Yan. We met just now.”
Xie Yan’s head buzzed when he saw that it was Luo Feng standing outside. He was as surprised as an airdrop bomb. F*ck, why did he come knocking on his door! Even though he said that he was willing to do anything for the company, but… This… This was too ridiculous.
He felt that he needed enough time to build his mental foundation.
“Is it convenient for me to enter?” Luo Feng seemed to be very proactive. Without waiting for Xie Yan to speak, he walked into the office. “Aiya, are you in a meeting?”
Luo Feng looked at the dozen or so people standing in the office as punishment. Their eyes were red, and they looked gloomy. The atmosphere in the room was very gloomy. Everyone lowered their heads and did not speak.
“Um… um… Why are you looking for me?” Xie Yan avoided his eyes and stuttered.
Luo Feng was very strange. He did not look terrifying. Why did Xie Yan feel like he was looking at a plague when he saw him? He felt very unwilling.
“I’m here to take a look at your company.” Luo Feng smiled.
After separating from Ai Tingya, he did not know what he was going to do and ate a bun in the canteen. Luo Feng thought that since he had nothing to do, he might as well ask around about Xie Yan and invest in it as soon as possible.
When Xie Yan heard that Luo Feng was interested in his company, he deduced that he was interested in him, he became even more flustered.
“Why… Why are you here to look at my company?” Xie Yan said fearfully.
Luo Feng coughed lightly and said very formally, “I’m sorry, let me introduce myself. My name is Luo Feng. I’m an angel investor. I’m very interested in your company.”
Xie Yan blurted out, “Ain’t you Ai Tingya’s boyfriend.”
Luo Feng was a little surprised. Why was Xie Yan’s first reaction like that and not asking about investments?
He said, “These two identities don’t conflict.”
Luo Feng was secretly delighted. They should get to the main topic now. He had already made it so clear.
Other than Xie Yan, the others were indeed stunned by Luo Feng’s identity. They would never have dreamed that a silent and nameless company like theirs would one day be found by investors, especially at night.
However, this investor looked so young, and why did Xie Yan seem to know him?
Xie Yan was stunned for a moment before he caught the main point and said happily, “In that case, you want to invest in our company. Do you also think our website has a lot of prospects?”
Ai Tingya had been listening at the side when Zhu Qiao analyzed the website after all.
Xie Yan thought that Luo Feng was so proactive because Ai Tingya had told him about the office conversation.
If Luo Feng could really invest more, Xie Yan would not have to go back and lower his voice to his father!
“Hmm… Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?” Luo Feng made an unfathomable expression.
“Of course I want to know the truth. Just tell us. We need opinions to perfect the website.” At this moment, Xie Yan was very humble. Not only could Luo Feng save them, but just listening to Ai Tingya’s words had already displayed Luo Feng’s unique business vision.
The opinions he gave alone were comparable to hundreds of users of the website.
Luo Feng’s face was filled with ‘you asked me to say it’. He said, “To be honest, your current website is worthless!”
He took advantage of the meal to briefly experience it on the website. It would be very outstanding if he only regarded the website as a product of university homework.
However, from a business perspective, Xie Yan’s website was really terrible. Having technology was one thing, but whether he could earn money was another.
As soon as he finished speaking, the boy in glasses stepped out angrily and slammed the table. “What right do you have to say that our website is worthless!”
The others also had anger on their faces. They did not have a good first impression of Luo Feng.
They were all outstanding students who had fought their way through the college entrance examination. Each of them had their own small pride. This website was their output.
Anyone would be angry if a stranger who did not know much about it pointed fingers at them.
Luo Feng asked unhurriedly, “Then I want to ask why you created the website. Are you trying to show off your skills?”
His gaze shifted to Xie Yan.
Xie Yan thought for a moment and said very solemnly, “At that time, I had this idea because I saw the Seniors’ second-hand market. Every graduation season, many school leavers take out things they don’t need and sell them at a cheap price. However, they sold things earlier than the new students enrolled, so I thought we could integrate an online market and link them together earlier.”
Luo Feng had also seen the news of the school choosing not to release it.
When graduates sold things, it was usually the students two grades lower who went to support them. The new students who wanted to buy things the most had yet to enroll. There were also graduates selling books on the forum, but the posts sank very quickly.
To be honest, Xie Yan was very observant and had ideas.
However, Luo Feng would not show mercy just because of these two points. “Firstly, do you know how many such websites there are in the country? Let’s not talk about anything else. I know of two universities nearby. They were founded earlier than you and have more users than you.”
“What do you think is your competitiveness compared to them?”
