Chapter 15 Technology Loans
800,000 start-up capital, which looks like a lot.
But when Dou Shuang and Qiao Liu got the offer back, Zhao Chuanzhi's heart was broken.
The rental fee for a whole floor of the site is 50,000 yuan a year. Three servers in the computer room, 600,000.
At this time, the hardware is 650,000 yuan, and there are 150,000 left, which is enough for the salary of Bai Lu and the three of them for a year.
However, leasing a domain name, advertising the website in the early stage, signing anchor fees, rough decoration of the company, and even buying a car for the company to run the business. All of them need money, and a rough calculation will cost 500,000 yuan for the company to run.
Zhao Chuanzhi doesn't want to make a small fuss, so if he wants to do it, he will get on the right track, so he needs a lot of funds.
Zhao Chuanzhi thought about it for a while and decided to pull investment. With technology in hand, it should not be a problem to pull investment.
"The largest local Internet technology company is 'Cornucopia Technology Interconnection', which I heard that there have been several successful investments, and going to this one has the greatest probability of attracting investment. ”
After Zhao Chuanzhi made some careful preparations, he got on the bus and came to the "cornucopia".
Luckily, Mr. Pan, the boss of the cornucopia, was there, and after hearing directly that the person who came was the founder of Dota, he directly met with Zhao Chuanzhi.
After a polite moment, the two sides sat down, and Pan Ruomin smiled: "Xiao Zhao, tell me quickly, how did you get the inspiration for Dota in the first place? Such a powerful game can be made by you, it is really a shot in the arm in our Chinese game industry!"
After Zhao Chuanzhi was polite, he said: "To tell you the truth, Mr. Pan, I have left the game company, and now I plan to start my own business. ”
"Oh?" Pan Ruomin showed interest: "Does Xiao Zhao plan to make another game similar to Dota?"
"It's not a game, it's a video site. ”
The look of interest on Pan Ruomin's face quickly disappeared, replaced by a trace of contempt.
"Xiao Zhao, do you know that my cornucopia's biggest business is a video website?" Pan Ruomin said coldly: "Video website, I am an expert, I know how difficult it is to start in this industry, at least five years to start to pay off! And I can't make any money at all, Xiao Zhao, do you want me to make a waste of your investment?"
Zhao Chuanzhi's heart tightened, and he hurriedly said: "Mr. Pan, my video website is ingenious, and it is not the same as the traditional one. ”
Pan Ruomin said coldly: "What difference can it be, I have been in this industry for many years, what mode has I not tried?
Zhao Chuanzhi also has some contempt in his heart, the video website that Pan Ruomin said has been crawling for many years, in fact, it is a copycat copycat of the most popular foreign video website, without the slightest creativity, even the website template, user process experience, are exactly the same.
"Young man, if you make a game, you will make a game obediently. I won't invest in you, you go. In addition, I will give you a chance to visit our company more often, learn from experience, and see how difficult our cornucopia video website is, and retreat in time. ”
Zhao Chuanzhi knew that he couldn't get investment from Pan Ruomin, so he got up and left.
As soon as Zhao Chuanzhi left, a person turned out behind the screen. If Zhao Chuanzhi is here, he will definitely recognize that this is his old club, Zhong Wanmin.
"Brother Zhong, your expectations are good, this Zhao Chuanzhi will really come to me to attract investment. Pan Ruomin said with a smile.
Zhong Wanmin said: "The science and technology circle is not big, but it is not small, and the ones that can be ranked are a few of us." Zhao Chuanzhi is now short of money for start-ups, and if he wants to attract investment, he must be looking for a few of our old brothers, but if you sell me face and don't invest in him, what can he do? Hehe, I want to see him turn back and come back to work for me. ”
Pan Ruomin laughed and said: "Brother is a good plan! Even if it's not you, I'm not optimistic about Zhao Chuanzhi, he may have some ability to make games, make videos, does he have any water in his stomach?"
The two looked at each other and smiled.
……
Zhao Chuanzhi tried a few more, but to no avail.
The rest are all enmity with Zhao Chuanzhi, and the original map cooperation website is even more hopeless.
Zhao Chuanzhi made the demon platform at the beginning, cutting off their financial route, and those people and Zhong Wanmin are also the same dog, and it is impossible for them to invest in Zhao Chuanzhi.
"I can't get investment, so I have to think of something else. ”
Zhao Chuanzhi finally went to the Huaxia Science and Technology Foundation.
This is a foundation that encourages scientific and technological innovation by the state, and as long as it provides valuable technology, it can obtain interest-free loans for up to ten years.
The ownership of the technology is still Zhao Chuanzhi himself, and the foundation provides financial loans free of charge. It can be regarded as a kind of support and preferential treatment for scientific and technological workers. This is also a way for Huaxia to put forward that science and technology are the primary productive forces, in order to catch up with the developed countries in the world.
As soon as Zhao Chuanzhi entered the door here, over there, Zhong Wanmin received the news.
"Brother Zhong, it seems that you, an employee, don't give up. Pan Ruomin said.
"Science and Technology Foundation, just him?" Zhong Wanmin said: "That is the place where real technology can be used to obtain loans, and only those who have proven promising technologies in military, civilian, and commercial use can be approved for loans." He Zhao Chuanzhi, in his hands is nothing more than some entertainment technology, what kind of loan can he get? Haha, what a joke!"
Pan Ruomin also smiled: "It seems that he is also desperate, Brother Zhong, you are ready, this employee, after all, he still has to come back to work for you, if you have an old brother, you can go out, the rest of the city, who dares to accept him?"
Zhong Wanmin sneered: "He wants to come back, I'm not happy yet, I have to beat him well, I can't let him be stable." Now the founder's shares are also in my hands, and he is useless to me. ”
……
Please fill out the form and provide your identity history, technical details, and the amount of the loan you are applying for. ”
In the foundation, the staff gave Zhao Chuanzhi a few forms.
When he saw Zhao Chuanzhi's resume, Xiao Zhang couldn't help but show a trace of contempt.
It turned out that he was born in games.
Entertainment technology, although it is also related to technology, is often unable to apply for loans here.
"Fill it out. ”
Xiao Zhang took the form and was slightly stunned: "Streaming technology?"
"Wait a minute, I'll ask an expert to evaluate your technique. ”
Zhao Chuanzhi nodded, what he provided was only one of the many technologies for video transmission, and he only knew this technology, and he couldn't make a live broadcast website. Several other technologies are required.
"This technology alone should be enough for me to apply for a loan. Zhao Chuanzhi closed his eyes and waited patiently.
Xiao Zhang took the form and came to the supervisor's office.
"Director, take a look at this streaming technology and apply for a loan of half a million. ”
Director Liu smiled: "Xiao Zhang, I look at your expression, and I am not optimistic about this technology." ”
Xiao Zhang pouted: "Streaming media, it should be video technology, entertainment technology, how can it be regarded as technology, what help does it help us in the great development of China!"
Director Liu shook his head and said: "You are wrong about this, can only aircraft, artillery, and missiles be regarded as technologies that benefit the country and the people? These small technologies are equally important." For example, if the video streaming technology is really successful, then the video can be transmitted in time, and the simplest, timely rescue picture can be transmitted back to the command room as soon as possible. Is it possible to improve the efficiency of military long-distance video communication and commercial conference conversation training? I have only cited a few general directions, and there are still many aspects that can be developed. ”
Xiao Zhang's face changed for a while, and finally bowed his head in convincing and said: "Director, I didn't think it through, you are right, technology is just a means, and if it is used well, it is a good technology for the benefit of the country and the people." ”
"Yes. Director Liu said: "Send this technology to Professor Zhang of the University of Science and Technology, he is an expert in this field, please ask him to evaluate how high the probability of success is, if it can be done, we can take a step forward in Huaxia." ”
