Chapter 377: R&D Results
In the next few years, all kinds of Internet companies will spring up like mushrooms after a rain, and Zheng Yan feels that he needs to make some preparations and become one of the shareholders of these companies as soon as they are established.
However, Zheng Yan also understands that this kind of thing cannot be achieved overnight, and he only knows which companies have investment value, but he is not clear about the specific time when the company was established, at least not every company.
In order to have a reasonable solution and use an acceptable method to complete these investments, Zheng Yan racked his brains, but there was still no perfect solution.
"Xiaoyan, someone is looking for you. ”
It's a new day, Zheng Yan is also lying in bed, but this time it was not Zheng Ruoxue who called him to get up, but his mother Tang Qian.
"Got it, here it is. ”
In the whole port city, Zheng Yan has many friends, but there are not many people who come to the house to look for him, especially even fewer who come so early, although he feels strange in his heart, Zheng Yan still starts to get up and wash.
"Boss, I'm really curious how you got to where you are now, with your lazy character. ”
Xie Xin, who was waiting in the living room, couldn't help but complain when he saw Zheng Yan, who was late. However, it can be seen that Xie Xin is in a good mood, because he usually doesn't make such jokes with Zheng Yan at all.
"Why, is there no money in the lab? Even if there is no money, you don't have to come early in the morning to disturb people's dreams. ”
It's rare that her daughter didn't harass herself, but she still couldn't sleep until she woke up naturally, Zheng Yan's heart was very unhappy.
Xie Xin, one of the earliest employees of 4510 Technology Company, is responsible for the research and development of the Gangcheng laboratory. When the 4510 software business was merged with Oracle, Zheng Yan deliberately spun off this department.
It's just that in the past few years, Zheng Yan has invested a lot of money in the laboratory, but there is not a decent product. Fortunately, Zheng Yan also understood that the information he had was a little advanced, and it was difficult to achieve it, so he didn't give up.
"Boss, can't I come to your house except for asking for money?" Xie Xin said pretending to be aggrieved.
"Well, don't pretend to be pathetic. Think about it yourself, in the past few years, you have taken the initiative to find me a few times, and how many times has it not been related to money?"
Xie Xin also understands that in the past few years, aside from the R&D expenses, Zheng Yan's salary is a large amount, but the laboratory has no output. Ask yourself, if it were me, I'm afraid I would have given up a long time ago.
However, Xie Xin's review only stayed in his heart for a few seconds, and then he said quite proudly: "Okay boss, I admit that the past work of the laboratory is indeed difficult to satisfy, but today I have brought good news." After a few years of development assignments, we finally completed one last night. ”
Zheng Yan realized that today's Xie Xin is a little different from the past, at least he didn't come empty-handed, and this time he also brought a laptop.
Zheng Yan is very clear about Xie Xin's development task, no matter which one is completed, he can build an Internet company with a market value of hundreds of millions of dollars in a short period of time.
Although Zheng Yan was excited, he still pretended to be indifferent, and said, "Yes, it's good news, you can not blame me for disturbing my sleep today." Tell me about the specific situation, and if I am satisfied, I will consider giving you some bonuses at my discretion. ”
"Boss, although I'm pretty sure you'll understand if I say it, I think it's better to have two computers in order to better show the effect of the product. ”
Originally, Xie Xin just came to report on his work, but with the reward, it is different, and he naturally wants to show the most perfect side of the product.
"Let's go, go to the study, I have a computer there. ”
Zheng Yan regarded the Internet as the foundation of the later period, and naturally there will be no shortage of computers at home, and there are computers of various brands.
After entering the study, Xie Xin began to start the computer and install the software. And Zheng Yan just watched from the sidelines and didn't speak, but Zheng Yan already had a general understanding of the product.
"Boss, this is the instant messaging software you asked us to develop, and it is already usable. However, due to the constraints of the conditions, it is not up to your original requirements, and you can now communicate with text, voice communication and video calls. ”
In addition, simple picture and file transfer can also be satisfied, but it will take time to provide users with communication, social networking, travel, entertainment and other needs including search, entertainment, health, financial management, automobiles, fashion, etc. ”
"It's like this, as long as both parties add friends..."
After Xie Xin summarized the functions of the product as a whole, he began to explain one function after another. Xie Xin explained very hard and passionately, but Zheng Yan didn't listen to it at all.
In this world, if you want to talk about the understanding of instant messaging software, no one can compare to Zheng Yan. For Zheng Yan, these functions at the moment are enough, at least they can be listed, and the most important thing at the moment is how to bring the product to the market.
If you want to put it in the 4510 technology company, this is of course the best choice, but Zheng Yan also understands that the domestic conditions are not mature now, there are very few people who have computers, and there are even fewer people who have a Unicom network. In addition, if it is promoted abroad, with more and more personal information involved, it is difficult for a Chinese company to maintain the market it occupies, and sooner or later it will be eliminated, and some gains outweigh the losses.
If you set up a new company abroad, you will have to face the situation that no one is available, and there is also the problem of enterprise attributes. Zheng Yan thought for a while, it is necessary to re-establish the company, and now the question is who to pull in the partnership, but he himself will definitely not work.
"Boss, what do you think, do you want to bring it to market now, or wait until we get it right?"
Xie Xin suddenly spoke up, interrupting Zheng Yan's fugue outside the world.
"There is no rush to go public, now that the product has been formed, you just need to continue to improve the functions. In addition, the application of various patents must be timely, and there are many "patent trolls", and I don't have the time to deal with all kinds of lawsuits. ”
Since Zheng Yan started his business, he has always taken patent applications very seriously, because Zheng Yan knows very well that there are too many companies that suffer losses in this regard, and as a reborn person, if he suffers losses in this regard, he will be too sorry for his identity as a reborn person.
