Lin Qingya was not favored since she was a child. Although her brother was seven or eight years older than her, in her childhood memories, her parents still gave priority to her brother, even in school.
My brother has never been good at studies and has never wanted to go to junior high school. However, his parents tried hard to persuade him to go to a vocational high school or technical school. His grades have been good since he was a child, but his parents are still not willing to go to school. When he was a teenager, Lin Qingya was in trouble. She is already very pretty. My mother's relatives have always said that she should get married after finishing junior high school. Such a beautiful girl should be sent to the south to work to support the family while looking for a partner. With her looks, she will definitely be successful. Find a rich husband.
My father once strongly agreed with this statement and even did not want Lin Qingya to go to high school. Later, Lin Qingya got fifth in the county in the high school entrance examination, which was enough to go to the best middle school in the county. However, a coal high school in the county was willing to exempt her from the three years of high school. Lin Qingya compromised and went to the Coal High School to pay all the tuition and fees for the year, and she also gave her a thousand yuan bonus. This way, she was able to endure the entire three years of high school.
Not to mention college, my family barely provided any living expenses, and I had to rely on myself to support myself.
Three years in high school, four years in college, and three years in work. She almost never told outsiders about the pain she suffered during these ten years. No one knew about it except her best friend Chen Yan.
Lin Qingya, who has never been taken seriously by her family, has given most of her income back to her family after working for three years, but her parents still don't give her enough respect. They rudely throw the burden of raising money on herself and don't care about herself at all. Do you have this ability
Lin Qingya tried to explain to her father: "There is no way I can get so much money now. How about you wait another year or two? Maybe you can get a turn for the better."
Dad said angrily: "One or two years? In a month or two, your brother's partner will become an adult again! Your mother said that if your brother's partner becomes an adult again, she will drink medicine and commit suicide. It's up to you!" "
Lin Qingya cried and said that she really didn't have that much money. Even if she forced herself to death, she wouldn't be able to come up with so much. She didn't say that she had options worth millions. On the one hand, the options were not ready to be cashed out, and on the other hand, she didn't say that she had options worth millions. On the one hand, it was also because she knew in her heart that once she told her, her parents might show up at the company door tomorrow, forcing her to find a way to exchange everything for enough money for her brother's marriage, and then happily go home with the money. Organizing a wedding for my brother.
Unexpectedly, my father actually said: "Then you might as well come back. I'll find someone to find you a rich husband's family. Your Aunt Cao talks to your mother every day, saying that if you go back to our county to find your husband's family, you don't dare to say anything else." , it will definitely be no problem to find a millionaire. When your future husband’s family gives you a big gift, your brother’s marriage will be settled. By then, you and your brother will be able to settle down your marriage, and your mother and I will die. I can rest in peace."
Lin Qingya gave up at that moment. She said that she would definitely not go back, let alone marry according to his arrangement. Lin Qingya's father said, then you can find a way to get me 150,000 yuan so that your brother can arrange this marriage. Otherwise, your mother and I will sever ties with you, and you can live your good life alone in Yanjing. Our life and death have nothing to do with you. Maybe one day your mother and I will drink pesticides and die together. At that time, our house can be used by your brother to get married, and my work can also provide some funeral expenses, which can barely make up the betrothal gift. "
Lin Qingya was so heartbroken that she just calmed down and said, "Don't say anything. I'll find a way to get the money for you. Don't come to me again for family matters in the future. When you and mom get older, I'll go out." I will give you the money to support you in your old age, and I won’t care about anything else. If this happens again, don’t come to me.”
Lin Qingya's father said, "Okay, you can take out 150,000 yuan, and your mother and I won't even need you to cry when we die."
Lin Qingya said angrily: "I will give you two hundred thousand, and I will even have enough money for my brother to have a baby later!"
In the past few days, Lin Qingya has been thinking about how to get 200,000 to give to her family. Later, she thought about it. The company is developing so smoothly now. If it raises Series B, she will just cash out the options at that point, even though she knows it. There was more room for appreciation, but she couldn't wait to use 200,000 to solve the biggest problem in her heart. This was her inner demon. If she didn't get over it, she would never be at peace.
Li Mu didn't know these things. He just felt that in his impression, Lin Qingya was a person with a long-term vision. She should be able to see the future development space of Makino Technology. Now is just a prelude. The real punch is yet to come. Not typed.
Apart from anything else, if Happy Farm can raise YY, Li Mu will be confident that the company's valuation will be in the order of billions, and then take the opportunity to launch a few products to assist it, and it will basically be invincible in the country. To achieve this step how long it takes? Maybe it was the whole year of 2002.
So if you sell shares at this time, you will definitely lose money to the point of tears. Can Lin Qingya not see that
Li Mu then asked her: "Are you encountering any financial difficulties? Are you in a hurry for money?"
Lin Qingya said awkwardly: "There is something going on at home, and I am very anxious for money."
Li Mu nodded and said almost without thinking: "Just tell me the number, and I'll lend it to you first."
Lin Qingya hurriedly waved her hand and said: "No, no, Mr. Li, when the company raises Series B, I will cash out the options and all problems will be solved."
Li Mu said: "If you really want to cash out, I can find a way to get three million in cash right now to take your one-point option back into my own hands, but you have to understand in your heart that it doesn't matter whether it's three million or five million. Well, you are the one who suffers in the end, not me."
"I know..." Lin Qingya lowered her eyelids and whispered: "Actually, you can trust me so much and promise me a one-point option before I come to Makino Technology. I am already very satisfied. Let alone three million. I got lucky to get one million, otherwise with my situation, I wouldn’t have been able to earn so much money even if I worked for another ten years.”
Li Mu frowned and said, "You are usually so confident, why have you become so petty today?"
Lin Qingya hesitated again and again, hesitating: "I...I...", but she didn't say the reason for a long time.
Li Mu simply pulled over the car to the side of the road, flashed his eyes, looked sideways at Lin Qingya, and said in a serious and unquestionable tone: "I can't watch you being stupid, your options are held by me on your behalf. , so let me make it clear to you now, I will not allow you to cash out the options before the C round. Don’t even think about it. If you are short of money, you can find a way, but smart people will not use such a stupid method as killing the goose to obtain the eggs!"
Lin Qingya didn't expect to be scolded by a boy who was five or six years younger than her. She was so scolded that she blushed and had no way to refute. She couldn't control it all of a sudden, her eyes were hot and tears were already welling up in her eyes.
Li Mu realized that what he said was a bit harsh, so he changed a slightly gentler tone and continued: "If you encounter any problems and need money to solve them, tell me, I can solve them personally, and I will help you solve them; if I It can't be solved privately, no problem. We will have money after the B round. Then we can lend you money from the company's account. But you don't tell the whole story when things happen, and you even want to give up the options in the B round. The method of cashing out is so disappointing. Is this still the Lin Qingya in my impression? Is this still the beautiful VP of my company? I still hope that you will use your vision and ability to support me half of the company. Get up, are you going to make me doubt my own vision?"
Although his tone was a little gentler, Li Mu's words were still a sharp attack on Lin Qingya's fragile psychological defense, so much so that Lin Qingya couldn't hold back and burst into tears instantly. This made Li Mu feel a little confused and hurriedly left. He took out a tissue from the glove box and handed it over, apologizing and asking her what happened.
Lin Qingya's psychological defense collapsed, and her negative emotions were released. She urgently needed someone to listen and help her process and digest them, so she briefly recounted all the sad past events in her family over the years.
After hearing this, Li Mu was not shocked at all. He had seen a lot of the older generation's preference for boys over girls. He had even heard of marriage exchange. Each party had children, marrying their daughters to the other's son so that they could live together. They can continue the family lineage, and the woman must make sacrifices even if she is not willing.
Although Li Mu also thought that Lin Qingya's parents were too much, he couldn't say such things, and there was no need to say them. He just patted Lin Qingya's back gently, comforting her to stop crying, and said: "Two hundred thousand, right? I'll have someone pay it to your account tomorrow, and you can pay me back after you cash out your options after the company's C round or even D or E round."
After finishing speaking, Li Mu added: "If the cash-out value of the option is less than 30 million, don't think about cashing out."
Lin Qingya said hurriedly: "Mr. Li, I..."
Li Mu immediately interrupted her and said: "Don't give 200,000 yuan back at once. It will spoil them. Give them 150,000 yuan first so that your brother can get married. The remaining 50,000 yuan will be settled with your family. What?" When your brother has a child, you will naturally give him the money, but before the child is born, no one can ask for it. If you ask, you will not give the money. You must be strong so that they dare not disobey. "
Lin Qingya's red eyes looked at Li Mu. She originally wanted to refuse, but at this moment she could no longer refuse. Although Li Mu's words were domineering, she was extremely moved. She even felt that the boy next to her could actually release some energy from his body. With such a strong sense of security, at this moment, she even felt a little childishly that the boy in front of her was like the prince charming in the fairy tale who saved people from fire and water, even though her role might be just one of his servants and not His Cinderella still couldn't stop her girlish heart from giving everything she had to him.
Lin Qingya felt that the best man in the world might not be more than this.
