Chapter 396: Sudden Business Opportunity

(PS: Dear friends, the ban on the previous chapter that was sealed was lifted.) )

Li Fan casually wore a T-shirt, pulled on his slippers and yawned and walked out of the bedroom, but turned back after a while.

Put on socks and sneakers, Li Fan went to the water room to flush his face again, and then left the dormitory building.

After all, it's an unfamiliar senior, so you still have to pay attention to your clothes.

Professor Cheng of the School of Economics, Li Fan has had several encounters. Professor Cheng is very young, only 30 years old to become a professor at Beijing University, thin and energetic, and is also very popular with students at Beijing University.

What's the matter with him? And he deliberately emphasized that it is a major matter!

Li Fan was thinking nonsense, and he was about to arrive at the north gate of the school, when Professor Cheng's phone called again, saying that the teahouse had been changed to a family banquet, and Li Fan was invited to his home in the nearby Wansheng community as a guest.

Hey, why did you change your mind temporarily?

Li Fan, who was confused, didn't ask much, so he had to turn back to the downstairs of the bedroom and drive to Wansheng Community, which was about two kilometers away.

This Wansheng community is an old community. The old community has an advantage, complete facilities, dense foliage, birds and flowers, of course, the disadvantage is that the property is relatively slack, and the garbage in the community is often not cleaned up in time.

Li Fan parked the car downstairs, sniffed the rich fragrance of flowers, and walked into the unit door.

The door of 602 was hidden, and there were bursts of laughter and conversation inside, Li Fan raised his hand and knocked gently, the sound inside suddenly stopped, and there was a sound of hurried footsteps.

"Yo, Xiao Fan is here, come into the house!" Professor Cheng stretched out his hand to Li Fan with great enthusiasm.

Li Fan smiled and responded, his eyes swept away, and there were 1 man and 1 woman in the living room.

The woman is twenty-eight or nine, with a good appearance, and she is wearing an apron to greet Li Fan. Obviously, this is Professor Cheng's wife.

As for the slightly wooden man with thick glasses, Li Fan didn't know him at all.

"Hello, Li Fan, I'm Song Hang. The man with glasses also quickly got up and walked over.

Li Fan smiled: "Hello!"

Professor Cheng said: "Song Hang is a professor in the Department of Computer Science of Chenhua University, and he is a great expert in the field of computer Internet. ”

Li Fan exclaimed: "Yo, so young, so powerful!"

Song Hang smiled shyly, "Not as powerful as your Teacher Li!"

"Don't tease me, I dare to call a teacher in front of the two of you!"

"You sit down first, I'll serve the food!" Professor Cheng walked quickly to the kitchen.

"I just came here to eat, but how fast is this dish?"

Cheng Yong's wife, who was holding a shovel, poked her head out and said, "The takeaway we ordered is just hot." ”

Li Fan smiled, this banquet ......

The chairs are set up and the dishes are ready.

Everyone chatted casually while eating, and naturally talked about the textbook.

Professor Cheng said: "Do you remember the ideology and morality we learned when I was a child, there was an article praising primary school students for their courage and courage in fighting gangsters.

Let's think about it, in the ideology and morality of primary schools, it is outrageous to praise primary school students for fighting gangsters.

Isn't it true that elementary school students fight gangsters directly to death, and children's imitation is the strongest. ”

Song Hangdao: "This article was eliminated last year. ”

Cheng Yong said with a sigh: "That's what I'm talking about, there are countless examples like this."

What do you say is the purpose of writing this article? Praise is right? What is the role of praise Advocate and encourage and support!

It's not theirs to have children, and I guess the author of this article shouldn't have children!"

Li Fan took the opportunity to joke: "When I received a call from Professor Cheng, I thought I had been interviewed, after all, please drink tea." ”

"Haha, we are looking for you, and we do have something important to talk about, we have an idea of starting a business, which is the entrepreneurial inspiration we got from the national textbooks in the past few days, and we want to invite you to make a big deal together!

Originally, I was going to make an appointment at the teahouse, but later your sister-in-law said that this kind of thing should be discussed in detail at home, and it is not something that can be explained clearly outside in a sentence or two. ”

Li Fan frowned slightly and said with a smile: "Frankly speaking, I'm not keen on entrepreneurship, I'm not that material." I used to think about starting a cosmetics business, but I found that my personality was not suitable to be a businessman. ”

"Brother, listen to me in detail, don't worry!"

Professor Cheng's entrepreneurial idea was born from the "national fault-picking craze" incident in the past few days.

His vision is to create an open and diverse pan-science and technology interest community, to provide a platform for young people to share and disseminate knowledge, and to spread science, philosophy, history and even common sense of life to the public in an interesting way.

This kind of community does not appear on the Internet in China, and it is indeed a market gap.

After discovering this business opportunity, he contacted his old classmate, Professor Song Hang of Chenhua University.

After struggling for a night, Professor Song readily agreed. The two of them quickly set their sights on Li Fan, the man of the hour, and in the entire Huaguo, there may be no one more suitable than Li Fan to join their small team.

After all, Li Fan is an Internet trendsetter, in addition to the huge popularity base, he is full of "debate spirit", and his personal authority is still rising.

No matter which aspect is analyzed, Li Fan will be the gold medal face of this future community.

After Li Fan listened to Cheng Yong's passionate introduction, he fell into deep thought.

This entrepreneurial idea is correct, although it is not yet mature in Cheng Yong's description. Because there was such a website in the previous life, it was also operated well, and the reputation was also very good.

However, Li Fan has crossed out the business clause in his life plan.

People, after all, they don't have three heads and six arms, and not everything they are good at, such as having children.

Seeing Li Fan frowning and pondering, Professor Cheng said: "Xiaofan, this is a very meaningful thing, taking the spread of science and philosophy as its own responsibility, benefiting oneself and others."

Let's strive to make knowledge 'live' and enter everyone's life!

And we use scientific knowledge to decipher all kinds of rumors on the Internet or in life, which is also what netizens like to see.

……”

Professor Cheng had broken thoughts, while Cheng Yong was silent.

Li Fan said: "Professor Cheng, let me tell you the truth, this entrepreneurial idea is good, and it can be extended to discuss, but my personal problem, I am not suitable for business, and I am neither good nor interested in operation." ”

Professor Cheng asked, "What about the content?"

"The content is okay, but I really don't love the company's operation, to put it bluntly, I am a person who does not like to be constrained and likes to be exposed to new things. ”

"It's okay, Song Hang and I have discussed, the three of us have their own division of labor, I am responsible for the company's operations, Song Hang is responsible for technical management, and you are fully responsible for the content of the website. Let's give full play to our own strengths and integrate as one, which will inevitably get twice the result with half the effort. ”

Seeing that Li Fan fell into contemplation again, Professor Cheng stopped talking, and he and Professor Song Hang looked at Li Fan who was bowing his head and frowning steadily.

Li Fan personally believes that although this project is only a small prototype, it will basically be successful, even if Li Fan himself does not join, it is not a big problem.

Because there was a similar website "Guoke" in the previous life, Guoke.com has proven that this kind of website has its living space. Secondly, these two are well-deserved leaders among the new generation of scholars, and they are reliable guarantees in terms of ability and social resources!

If you introduce your past life experience to these two people, plus your sensitivity to the content of the website, the probability of failure is relatively low.

It is...... Both of them have important teaching tasks in their bodies, can they wholeheartedly start a business, entrepreneurship is not only a major pressure, but also consumes a lot of a person's time, even a lifetime.

Of course, Li Fan is also evaluating his time.

Li Fan raised his head and asked, "Since we have talked to this extent, then I will not shy away from it, and if you have something to say, don't be surprised." ”

"Of course, in the future, it will be your own family, don't have any scruples. Cheng Yong said.

Li Fan asked truthfully: "You two, do you have time to start a business, you two have teaching tasks, and I don't know if you have scientific research tasks."

Entrepreneurship is not allowed to be used for two purposes. ”

In fact, Li Fan waited for their answers.

Cheng Yong said: "I have no problem, now in April, at the beginning of June, when my course ends, I will resign directly." ”

Li Fan asked, "Aren't you sorry? You are the youngest and most accomplished professor of economics at Beijing University." ”

"I don't regret it, academic research is too boring, and my dream has always been to start a business. ”

Li Fan looked at Professor Song Hang again, and the taciturn Professor Song Hang said with a little frustration: "My thousand-degree eyes are blind when I lie in front of the computer all day. ”

"Are you really sure you want to quit your job and start a business?"

"Of course!"

"Hmm!"

Li Fan began to ask his own questions: "What is the target group of the community?"

"Young people who are interested in scientific knowledge, aimed at the elite. ”

Li Fan continued to throw out the next question: "What is the profit method of this kind of website?"

Cheng Yong said: "The early stage is naturally free, and it is estimated that it will be free in one to two years, first establish a huge influence and authority, and then rely on a huge traffic database, and then engage in a subscription model, or even a reward or reward." ”

Li Fan asked, "Is there any other way to make a profit?"

Cheng Yong said: "This needs to be studied slowly. ”

"Have you ever thought about using your authority and influence to promote other brands?"

"I firmly disagree with this, once it is exposed, the authority of the website will be lost, such as this 'textbook incident'. ”

Song Hang rarely spoke: "I don't agree either, we don't want to grab profits in the short term, I want to be an Internet company for more than 20 years!"

Li Fan let out a sigh of relief, the problem he was most worried about was finally not a problem.

He said about his current situation: "But, you all know my situation, I have a lot of work, I have to study and have a lot of other work, and I may not have much time on the website." ”

"Xiaofan, it doesn't matter, you are the image of the website, you need to stand in front of the public and push the website to the public!

Internet companies, there is always a signboard standing in front of the media, your job, one is to control the overall content resources of the website, and the other is to establish an excellent website image in the public.

Your daily work still has to continue, this is not a conflict, and it complements each other!"

Li Fan nodded, "However, let's talk about it in advance, I really don't have time to do it myself in the company, don't have any opinions on my 'casualness' in the future." ”

Cheng Yong and Song Hang were overjoyed, proper, done.

"Of course not!"

"Don't worry!"

Li Fan threw out the last blockbuster question: "Where does the money come from to start a business?"

Cheng Yong and Song Hang looked at Li Fan with a smile and did not speak.

Li Fan was speechless, okay, I'm eyeing myself!

"Two big brothers, do you know what I belong to?"

Cheng Yong calculated: "You were born on January 1, 2000, you should be a rabbit, right?

"That's wrong!" Li Fan smiled, "I'm Pixiu!"

"Ah, you can't get in or out, you can't pull out a dime?" Cheng Yong laughed, "But now entrepreneurship is all about investment, and we don't have to make a lot of money." ”

Li Fan asked: "What about the small money, how do we share the start-up capital? I don't know much, but the start-up capital must be at least 10 million, right? Now this money is not money."

How are the three of us going to make it together?"

Cheng Yong and Song Hang glanced at each other, these two people thought that Li Fan would be wholly owned, but they didn't expect that Li Fan, who had a great cause, didn't have this idea at all.

The 10 million, the two professors really can't take it out, and Li Fan also knows about this situation, but he wants to see the attitude of these two big brothers towards entrepreneurship.

The road to entrepreneurship is blue, and it is really not possible to achieve an indomitable fighting spirit without breaking the kettle.

"I'll go cut some more cold vegetables for you!" The sister-in-law broke the short silence and went to the kitchen to cut cold vegetables.

After a little hesitation, Cheng Yong gritted his teeth and said with a firm gaze: "Then I will sell the house and fight!"

The sound of chopping vegetables in the kitchen stopped abruptly, and faintly passed through the murderous aura.

Li Fan glanced at the kitchen and asked, "Do you need to discuss it with your sister-in-law?"

"No, your sister-in-law must agree, isn't it, Xiaofen?"

The sister-in-law started chopping vegetables again, but she didn't answer.

Cheng Yong said with a sad face: "I don't have a house to sell!" I have 1 million in hand, I will borrow it again, and I will make up 3 million, and the three of us will each have 3 million?"

Li Fan summed it up, "Okay, 3 million per person, and the 9 million will be the start-up capital first." Let's pull the company up first, and then go to the investors. ”

"Okay, that's it, a toast. ”

Li Fan: "Wait a minute, this matter can't be settled first, and after the two of you raise money, it's not too late for us to toast." ”

"No, let's have a toast in advance with the three co-founders, Mr. Li!"

"Mr. Cheng, I came by car, you and Mr. Song drink!"

Song Hang made a rare joke: "Song Zong's alcohol consumption is not good!"

……

Well, the name of the company has not been decided, the company structure has not been discussed, and the equity distribution plan has not been ...... It's just a simple concept, and these three people have always talked about this and that.

Li Fan left Professor Cheng's house, he found a substitute driver, and he sat in the back seat of the car thinking a lot.

Co-founding a knowledge community, this entrepreneurship is no problem, and sharing and passing on interesting knowledge is not only in line with one's own image. The knowledge community is also imbued with elitist cultural traits.

For becoming a banner of the knowledge community, Li Fan thinks it's quite cool.

Li Fan decided to give it a try, but he didn't know much about the two, so he decided to learn more about them from the side to see if they were suitable for working together.

Of course, people will change slowly, and no one knows whether everyone will get better or worse in the future.

As for why Li Fan didn't contribute alone, Li Fan believes that in this era, sharing is much more important than possession.

90% of the shares is not necessarily better than 30% of the shares. ()
