Chapter 303: Embarrassed

A letter of intent from JAFCO Asia made Kangsheng excited from top to bottom.

The changes are significant, programmers are in high spirits, and the progress of R&D is significantly accelerated.

Because there are clear share incentive clauses in that agreement, although it is held by the major shareholders, it has nothing to do with them for the time being, but no one can say about the Internet, in case Kangsheng is acquired one day, it is certain to take a huge red envelope, after all, there is a precedent for ChinaRen there.

No matter how pure a person is, there are times when he is dazzled by interests.

Chen Qiaoshan knows that this formal Term sheet is essentially a piece of paper.

Even if both parties have signed the pledge, it is not very binding, financing is a very serious matter, and the letter of intent is not of much practical significance except for the confidentiality clause that is legally binding.

Chen Qiaoshan does not doubt the sincerity of JAFCO Asia, but in business, Kangsheng currently has the initiative, and there is no need to be too eager for investors.

Dai Zhikang was a little breathless, and took the initiative to find him while he was free. "Dashan, what should we do now?"

Chen Qiaoshan was browsing the news at major portals, and when he heard his question, he said with a smile: "You are the big boss, tell me your opinion first." ”

Dai Zhikang is a little uncomfortable, he is a major shareholder, but he is only responsible for software development, while Chen Qiaoshan is more like a product manager, whether it is the performance requirements of the software, or product positioning and marketing, Chen Qiaoshan is basically taking the idea.

The effect is obvious, since the addition of Chen Qiaoshan, Kangsheng's transformation has been very successful, although it has not been able to open up the situation for the time being, but it can be selected by the dream official, which in itself shows that Discuz has been recognized by the market.

Dai Zhikang felt a little uncertain, maybe he was more suitable to be a programmer, fortunately, this was his interest, he didn't resist this idea very much, after pondering for a while, he looked at the time and proposed: "It's almost time for dinner, let's find a place to talk." ”

"Where are you going?" Chen Qiaoshan was a little curious.

Dai Zhikang said: "The intersection has newly opened a Cangzhou hot pot chicken, it looks very hot, let's go, I'll have a treat, let's have two drinks." ”

Chen Qiaoshan knew that the store had just opened a few days ago, and when it opened, the flower baskets were almost piled up on the street, and it was very noisy, "Come on, why don't you call Sister Xiaoyu too?"

Dai Zhikang hesitated slightly, but still said, "Forget it, let's just do it today." ”

Chen Qiaoshan originally wanted to call Yan Xiaoqin, she will go back to Dengzhou tomorrow, she usually doesn't feel very much, when she thought that the two were going to be separated for a while, Chen Qiaoshan suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, unconsciously, he was used to Yan Xiaoqin's existence.

"Where are you going?" Unfortunately, the two were just about to go out when they happened to bump into Xu Xiaoyu.

Dai Zhikang glanced at his girlfriend and said, "I'm a little free today, I'll invite Dashan out for a drink, so you don't have to wait for me at noon." ”

Xu Xiaoyu knew that these two people must have something to talk about, as for what to talk about, there is no need to ask, there are outsiders, she doesn't have much to say, just told Dai Zhikang: "There is still something to be busy in the afternoon, you drink less wine." ”

……

The newly opened hot pot restaurant is opposite Zhonggang Square, adjacent to the electronic market, the dock is really good, just arrived at the meal, there are not many customers in the store, and the two did not pick, and they found a table to sit down at random.

After reading the menu, Chen Qiaoshan found that this restaurant is not a common red and white pot in later generations, but an old-fashioned copper hot pot.

Dai Zhikang didn't think about eating, Chen Qiaoshan had full control, ordered a double serving of hot pot chicken, a few vegetable balls with side dishes, and asked for two bottles of Yanjing, so he gave up.

When the waiter went down, Dai Zhikang took the initiative to speak: "I haven't found a suitable opportunity, just the two of us today, and there are no outsiders, what do you think about the matter of buying shares?"

This question was very direct, a bit unexpected by Chen Qiaoshan, since he had said this, he did not hide his intentions, and repeated what he said to Liu Chang.

"What, push Discuz to the foreign market now?" Dai Zhikang was taken aback, he was confident in the software he developed, and he would definitely be able to occupy the domestic forum software market, but he was not very sure of the foreign market, he didn't have that ambition, and he didn't even have the idea of going out.

From the current Internet landscape, LAMP is currently the most important website solution, Dz is still very weak, want to get a piece of the pie, the difficulty is not ordinary, especially this is a forum software developed by Chinese, want to go out, difficult.

Chen Qiaoshan said: "The foreign market is not Longtan Tiger's Den, didn't Kangsheng have foreign users before, how do you know if it works if you don't try?"

Dai Zhikang is obviously a little lacking in confidence, "There are no strong opponents in China for the time being, and it is difficult to say abroad, we are relatively lagging behind in starting, and Discuz still has a lot of technical flaws." ”

Chen Qiaoshan scratched his head a little, this guy in front of him is a real industry master, but everyone has a period of confusion, and Dai Zhikang is no exception.

"Do you know phpind?"

Dai Zhikang was a little confused, "This is a new forum software?"

Chen Qiaoshan explained: "It used to be called ofstar, you should know it, it just changed its name a few days ago. ”

"Do you know ofstar?" Dai Zhikang was taken aback, this is a php plus texdb forum system, although the reputation is not obvious, but after all, it is the same industry software, he has also learned in detail, the other party is even stronger than Dz in terms of overload technology and low-level data stability.

Chen Qiaoshan smiled in his heart, this is Dz's biggest competitor in the past, he has been paying attention to the other party's dynamics, fortunately, phpind has not yet launched a forum-based content management system, and it has not posed a threat to Kangsheng for the time being. "Although I don't understand technology, but I am very sensitive to the market, not long ago, I asked Brother Wang to test all the forum software on the market. ”

Dai Zhikang hurriedly asked, "What is the result?"

"In terms of performance, after Discuz, phpind should be in second place, and although this is a new software, it has a lot of potential. Chen Qiaoshan didn't hide it, although he didn't know p very well, but he could fight against Dz for six or seven years, and he couldn't be weaker.

Dai Zhikang was a little surprised, he didn't expect Chen Qiaoshan to do so much work in private, no wonder the suggestions put forward were very targeted, "In this case, shouldn't we focus more on accelerating soft research and development, isn't it inappropriate to go out at this time?"

Chen Qiaoshan said with a smile: "R&D is your business, I am responsible for the market, what we lack now is not money, but experience, Zhou Zhengning They will definitely be able to help in this regard." ”

Although JAFCO Asia is only an Asian venture capital fund, its power is extraordinary, and the reason why 3721 is connected with Microsoft is said to be because of JAFCO's matchmaking.

"Do you mean to accept their shares?" Dai Zhikang glanced at the hot pot in front of him, but he didn't have any appetite, on the contrary, he was even faintly anxious, and his attention was all focused on Chen Qiaoshan.

Chen Qiaoshan nodded and said, "As long as they promise to help us establish overseas promotion channels, I tend to accept their shares." ”

Dai Zhikang was silent, he was a little worried, if according to the requirements of the letter of intent, after a round of share dilution, plus 5% of the nominee shares, his shareholding ratio is just over half, and he still controls Kangsheng, but the problem is that there is still a VAM agreement.

Dai Zhikang knows in his heart that as far as the current trend continues, there is no need to wait until the end of the year, Kangsheng may be profitable, maybe in less than two years, Kangsheng will become Chen Qiaoshan's bag, and he only has only 10% of the shares, which is unacceptable in any case.

It is normal for the equity to be diluted, but it is obvious that it will lose control so quickly, which is obviously beyond Dai Zhikang's expectations, the VAM agreement has long been signed and pledged, and Chen Qiaoshan has invested real money during this time, and he really can't say anything.
