Chapter 232: Melon Field and Plums
Two years ago, Li Kejia introduced Tang Zifeng as a strategic partner of New Jingwei Company. Tang Zifeng invested 100,000 yuan in the name of Feihai Company and obtained 40% of the equity of Xinjingwei Company. In the past two years, Li Kejia has repeatedly asked Tang Zifeng to give advice to the company, without any sense of apology, because Tang Zifeng himself is also a shareholder of the company, and Tang Zifeng is actually doing things for himself.
With the company's business booming, Tang Zifeng's investment has been rewarded dozens of times. Of course, this kind of return has so far only remained on the books, because the company has not paid dividends to date.
According to Li Kejia's idea, once Huaxia CAD can drive Tuao CAD out of the Chinese market, the business scale of the new Jingwei company will be more than ten times larger than now, and the company's value can easily exceed 100 million yuan. At that time, 40% of the equity is equivalent to more than 40 million, and Tang Zifeng's investment is not an exaggeration to describe it with a million profits.
Li Kejia believes that Tang Zifeng will definitely have a way, and he will definitely go all out to deal with Tuo CAD, because doing so will maximize the appreciation of his own investment. But who would have thought that Tang Zifeng agreed to make a move on Tuao, but the prior arrangement was to transfer his equity to the Canglong Research Institute, which was completely beyond Li Kejia's imagination.
"Melon fields and plums. ”
Facing Li Kejia's stunned expression, Tang Zifeng pretended to be helpless and said.
Tang Zifeng invested in the new Jingwei company back then, with the mentality of the next idle chess. He didn't know if Huaxia CAD could defeat Tuo CAD, or if it was like the national software companies he knew in his previous life, it failed miserably in the competition with foreign companies, and finally the grave was miserable. The investment of 100,000 yuan is not a big deal for him, and he has the right to support Zhao Yuntao and Liu Xiaohan, the two bitter code farmers.
What he didn't expect was that the new Jingwei company survived with the help of supporting software for wood carving machine tools, and upgraded Huaxia CAD to version 4.0 in one fell swoop, and functionally had the power to fight with Tuao CAD, and the price was negligible. Think about it, many companies buy Huaxia CAD just to use the matching templates it provides, you can imagine how low the price of the software is.
In this case, Tang Zifeng is confident enough to help Huaxia CAD achieve a counterattack on Tuo. Once the counterattack is successful, the new Jingwei company will become a monopolist in the domestic CAD market in one fell swoop, and there is no doubt that the company's value will exceed 100 million. Tang Zifeng's valuation of the company's future is no different from Li Kejia.
To say that Tang Zifeng is not interested in such a profit is a lie. But he deeply knows that this money is not something he can worry about, because the promotion of CAD software is too closely related to his position, and if he gets hundreds of times the return from the development of the new Jingwei company, he will be very free from the accusation of abusing power for personal gain.
Previously, Tang Zifeng arranged for Canglong Research Institute to help Xinjingwei Company do CAD testing, because it did not involve interests, and others could not say anything. Now he has to use the power in his hands to squeeze out Tuo in order to put the new Jingwei company in power, this is another matter, and everyone will suspect that his motive for this move is to increase the value of his shares.
"In the next step, I will go to the Ministry of Machinery to lobby and use the influence of the Canglong Research Institute, which is directly related to my work. If the new Jingwei company has my shares, the leaders will first ask me to avoid it, how can I be allowed to jump up and down. Tang Zifeng said.
Li Kejia naturally understands these routines, she frowned and said, "This is too unfair to you." Zifeng, even if Feihai Company wants to withdraw its shares, it doesn't have to be transferred to the Canglong Research Institute, right? I'll help you find two reliable people to hold shares on your behalf, and then return the shares to you when the opportunity is ripe in the future, what do you think?"
Tang Zifeng shook his head and said, "There's no need for this. The money is inexhaustible, and I am very pleased to see our own CAD development and squeeze out foreign software. I just invested 100,000 yuan in the past, and when the time comes, you will pay me back 100,000 yuan, well, add some interest or something, my investment is not a loss, and it is worth it. ”
"I can't imagine that our department can still cultivate a student with patriotic enthusiasm like you. Li Kejia looked at Tang Zifeng and said half-jokingly and half-seriously.
Tang Zifeng pretended to be serious and said: "Senior Li Kejia, you have to be responsible when you speak, why can't our department cultivate students with patriotic enthusiasm?"
"Uh-huh, that's right, aren't you an alumnus of Tang?" Li Kejia said. She didn't bother to discuss the issue of patriotic enthusiasm with Tang Zifeng, but asked: "The 40% equity belongs to Feihai Company, you have half of it, and Wang Zijie has half of it." It's just your own 20% to quit, can Wang Zijie's 20% still be retained?"
Tang Zifeng said: "Wang Zijie and I have always advanced and retreated together, and if I withdraw my shares, Wang Zijie will naturally have to retreat." The leaders of the ministry know about the cooperation between me and Wang Zijie to start a company. If Wang Zijie has equity in the new Jingwei company, doesn't that mean that I also have equity?"
"Then does Wang Zijie agree?" asked Li Kejia.
Tang Zifeng said with a smile: "His goal now is to become a well-known scholar, and money is already something outside his body for him, so how can he care about your equity." I discussed this matter with Wang Zijie, and he didn't have any opinions. ”
Last year, Tang Zifeng and Wang Zijie discussed taking the parents of both families to Beijing and taking over the daily management of Feihai Company. Wang Zijie began to study for graduate school on the job, and devoted his main energy to scientific research, preparing to become a well-known scholar in China before the age of 40, as Tang Zifeng planned for him.
Wang Zijie has a shortcut to do scientific research that no one else has, that is, spending money to buy results. Don't get me wrong, he doesn't really spend money to take other people's results as his own, but to take a stake in other people's research, so that he can have the opportunity to participate in those high-level research, which not only improves his scientific research ability, but also expands his popularity in the academic circle.
Scholars in the 90s were very pitiful, and the government's research funding projects were very few and the amount of funding was very low. Some top economists can only apply for a project for 30,000 or 50,000 yuan, and they want to go out to do research or buy some library materials. Scholars' salaries are low, and one of the purposes of applying for a project is to squeeze a little out of the project fee to subsidize the family, such as reimbursement for the cost of groceries, so that the money that can really be used for scientific research is even more insufficient.
Wang Zijie is also staying in the academic circle, how can he not know this situation. In the name of being able to get "sponsorship", he found the big-name scholars in the school to cooperate. The project fee applied for was 50,000 yuan, and he dared to pull in another 100,000 yuan of "sponsorship". As for the source of the sponsorship fee, he refused to say, and people were very smart not to ask. Of course, the big names can't imagine that Wang Zijie is using his own money to "sponsor" these scientific researches, they only think that Wang Zijie has a very hard "relationship" and can get money from the company, which is of course a rare ability.
With money, big-name scholars can recruit more assistants to help, and they don't have to pick and choose where to do research. With more people and more data, it's easier to come up with high-level results. Drinking water and thinking about the source, while the big names have gained many academic honors, can they not give Wang Zijie some returns?
In the article, Wang Zijie was signed as a second author, and when the upper ministry and commission held a meeting, Wang Zijie was asked to sit next to him, and he found an opportunity to introduce "Zijie is my right-hand man" to the leaders or other scholars.
Of course, the reason why big names can become big names also has some academic skills. Wang Zijie was able to mingle with these people, and he also learned a lot of experience, and when it came time for him to do scientific research independently, he was no longer at a loss, but he was able to do it with ease.
Scientific research is a thing that people outside the door think is very mysterious, but in fact, when they enter the door, they know that it is just a skilled job. For example, when doing statistical analysis, some novices are blind when they encounter missing data and don't know what to do. Experienced scholars can directly interpolate a value, such as 4.8, or 5.2, as long as they look at it, and then calculate it according to the interpolated value, and the final result is not much different from the real situation.
The reason for this is that experienced scholars can estimate the approximate distribution of the data, and the value inserted is not the true value, but the difference from the true value is acceptable. In addition, having an erroneous value in the middle of thousands of records does not affect the results of statistical inference. As everyone knows, in a large-scale survey, the false numbers caused by the cheating of interviewers are not the only ones.
Interviewers can make up it, but why can't you? Interviewers are blind editors, but we have scientific basis for editing. This is the bull's explanation of the interpolation problem.
You don't have any experience in this area, do you dare to say this?
In just one year, Wang Zijie has become a rising star in the domestic economic circle, and he has two years to graduate from his master's degree, but several domestic economists have extended an olive branch to him, asking him to apply for his doctorate. Wang Zijie once boasted to Tang Zifeng in private, saying that he would definitely be rated as a professor before the age of 35, and his current goal is to win the Nobel Prize in Economics before the age of 50.
Wang Zijie, who has such a lofty ideal, will still care about the 20% equity of the new Jingwei company. When Tang Zifeng told him about this, he just waved his hand arrogantly, claiming that what he was thinking about now were big projects of more than 200 billion yuan, such as the Three Gorges Project, the revitalization of Northeast China, and the affairs of a small company, just be handled by a layman like Tang Zifeng.
Of course, the more important reason is that Feihai's business performance in the past two years is really good, with tens of millions of dividends a year, and Wang Zijie has a wealth of tens of millions, which can be so fresh and refined.
Well, the same goes for Tang Zifeng......
