Chapter 414: The Risks of Human Nature

A few days before there was a move in the goose factory.

Huangfu returned to Zhonghai, and now it is actually close to the final exam week in January, but after Ele.me's entrepreneurial momentum is getting bigger and bigger, he doesn't care so much about learning, for him, studying is originally to make money.

As soon as he got off the plane, he rushed to the company.

Ele.me's early strategy has never been bold enough, or rather, it has no money.

When takeaway was surging, it was when the subsidy exploded, and many people in the city had the impression at that stage: 2 yuan for a bowl of red swept beef noodles, 4 yuan for a plate of vegetable salad.

The two companies are competing to burn money like crazy.

If Wen Xiaoguang is willing to support them through WeChat, then speeding up Ele.me will be his interest appeal.

It's too slow, after all.

Because Huangfu has done some major things in the first round of financing, because he understands takeaway, and because of his special relationship with Wen Xiaoguang, although he is young, he is already one of the most important people in the company's team.

After appearing in the company, it is quite normal for others to call Huangfu Manager.

"I'm looking for Mr. Zhang, is he there?" asked a colleague.

"Yes, he's been waiting for you. ”

Important information has already been said on the phone, and Wen Xiaoguang agreed to let WeChat help Ele.me divert traffic.

This is great news.

in the office.

Zhang Xuhao made no secret of his happiness, he walked over and patted Huangfu on the shoulder!

"Good work, hard work, I knew you would definitely bring me good news! Come, tell me the details!"

Huangfu is also hard to hide his excitement, "I brought you the picture, this is what Wen Xiaoguang mentioned when he talked to me, they are making some changes to WeChat internally, these pictures are concepts, and they may be a little different in the end, but the direction is right." ”

Huangfu took it out of his bag, a file bag, which was particularly well protected.

Zhang Xuhao was puzzled: "What is it?"

"It's where the link to Ele.me will be on WeChat. ”

"Where will we be?!" Zhang Xuhao's heart instantly twitched.

It's the same as writing a book with a good recommendation slot, and this kind of 'position' can even be clearly priced.

Just like the goose factory gave Jingdong a position on the 'discovery' page, if you take 15% of the shares, you are naturally willing to give a good position.

Wen Xiaoguang gave two choices, and what they wanted most was naturally to add the option of takeout directly on the first-level page, that is, under the discovery page, the circle of friends and nearby people.

For users, if you don't need this thing, it doesn't affect you, the core of the chat is [it won't bother you], no ads, no traffic.

If you open it and find it useful, you will naturally find WeChat really convenient. Jumping to the interface of Ele.me, including UI design, these are not their job content.

Obviously, this is the best, how many people will open the circle of friends every day, which makes Zhang Xuhao dare not imagine.

"But there are conditions. ”

The Emperor's voice interrupted his fantasies in excitement.

Yes, conditionally, such a good location. What can you give me?

We're all merchants.

Huangfu said simply: "The value of this position naturally does not need to be mentioned...... I have also been in contact with Mr. Li of Weituo, and their condition is that the company has 15% of the equity, and will send directors to help the company develop. ”

Wen Xiaoguang, as a later person, of course knows that Ele.me is very promising, and it will be sold for nearly 10 billion US dollars in the future, but Li Wenbo doesn't know, spending so much money to get a director to represent the interests of Weituo, this is too normal, and he didn't send any professional managers to manage this company, which is already what he thinks is 'not too much', you think about Google, investors don't worry about the two founders, and they will directly get you a CEO, and if you don't accept it, you have to accept it.

After hearing this, Zhang Xuhao fell into uneasiness.

Frowning and thinking about it, he unconsciously glanced at Huangfu from the corner of his eye...... He's a good friend of Wen Xiaoguang.

"In this way, the shares represented by Wen Xiaoguang account for as much as 35%, and there must be a number of directors......" There is a sentence, he didn't have a good question, what is Wen Xiaoguang going to do?

It is said that I also wanted to make takeout before, but now I also have a mind?

The emperor is not easy to say anything, this decision is actually to ...... himself doesn't say that you are committed to marrying, but that's basically what it means.

Dependent on business, dependent on capital, the independence of the company will definitely be damaged to some extent.

If it was Wen Xiaoguang, a good man, he would not have done this kind of thing, but after working in the company for a long time, he understood that here you take one step back and others are allowed to take two steps, everyone is for the sake of profit, when it is time to take it, no one will think about it, he even wants to take more.

Weakness is suicide.

And he does have his own purpose, WeChat wants to build an ecology, he doesn't worry about having no influence on important partners, not to mention anything else, in case, one day these guys are a little unhappy or a little contradictory because of something, what if people go to Tengxun?

Is it possible?

It's unlikely, but what if it happens?

There are many bark trees in this world, and shameless people grab a handful.

You see, Apple's control over suppliers has basically reached the point where it can't be increased.

Seeing that the boss didn't speak, Huangfu said again: "Xiaoguang also gave a second choice. ”

Zhang Xuhao is not as happy as he was just now, in the process of starting a business, there are too many painful choices, hey. It's not easy to start a business, it's really not about fun.

"They plan to add the function of the wallet to WeChat, and after clicking in, a secondary page will appear, and at the bottom of the secondary page, they can do a third-party service, and the entrance of Ele.me is placed here. Correspondingly, they reduced their share claims by only 10%, and made up another $500,000. ”

Of course, the directors should still be dispatched.

As for giving money, Wen Xiaoguang will also hope that they will cooperate with WeChat sooner. So the money, if you give it, you give it.

"How much worse will the second-level page be than the first-level page?" Zhang Xuhao asked.

Huangfu was uncomfortable, "Mr. Zhang, these things are all brand new, even they can't predict it themselves, and even whether the wallet function will be successful is another matter." ”

Moaned for a few seconds.

Mr. Zhang still asked, "What does he think about being hungry?"

"We haven't talked about it like this, but Mr. Zhang, if you think about it from another angle, he also has to be responsible for WeChat, and I can guarantee that Wen Xiaoguang will never have any thoughts about our business, if there is, there is no need for him not to choose it in the first place. ”

People change, maybe.

"I'll go to Beijin. He wanted to make sure with a closer look.

Huangfu agreed with both hands, "Okay." I made an appointment with him. ”

That night, he flew to Beijin, it was already more than 12 o'clock, Wen Xiaoguang still saw him, and Zhang Xuhao walked behind him in the corridor of the building in the heat of the city at night.

"How should WeChat correctly use its own traffic advantage, this is a big proposition, Huangfu was the first to come, but not the first to mention to me, in the end I only chose you, do you know why?"

"I don't know, Mr. Wen, you said. ”

Wen Xiaoguang said: "When we add something, we need to consider whether it will increase the burden on users or increase the service, and I think the latter is more than the former at the takeaway entrance, so I agreed." We do not pursue mergers and acquisitions, which conflicts with WeChat's concept of 'empowerment', but ...... Mr. Zhang, you have been in charge of a company for so long, what do you think is the foundation of governing the company?"

"What is it?" Zhang Xuhao shook his head, in front of this 19-year-old man, his mind could only follow behind.

"It's a risk to human nature. Wen Xiaoguang spoke slowly, if there is no merger and acquisition, there is no influence, not to mention any unexpected vicious time, it is not acceptable just to go back to the goose factory.

Human nature cannot be tested, let alone guarded against. In other words, failure to guard is a test of human nature.

Zhang Xuhao didn't know what to say, but he felt that Wen Xiaoguang was becoming more and more like a big man in people's mouths, whether it was words, thinking, temperament, or the toughness embodied in all of them.
