Chapter Eighty-Seven: Recruitment
"But Xiao Jiang, you really have a lot of ideas, but fortunately, we are venture capitalists, and we are pursuing profit returns, not holdings. Zhou Quan lost the solemnity of the negotiation and became relaxed.
After Jiang Yizhou agreed to their 40% shares, Jiang Yizhou proposed the structure of AB shares, B shares are the shares of founders like him, and the shares financed are A shares, and the voting rights of A shares are one-tenth of B shares.
This is also the way that later founders control the company when their own shares are not dominant, but like the VIE structure, it will take a few years to emerge, resolving one of the most fundamental conflicts of startups.
"However, we still need to study this idea, but I can promise you that in general affairs, the voting rights of IDG can be entrusted to you, and major matters such as financing and acquisition need to be approved by us. ”
Jiang Yizhou breathed a sigh of relief, any founder who was taken 40% of the shares in the first round of financing must be frightened, and if he does not have enough control, he may soon be kicked out of the company he founded, which depends on the conscience of the major shareholder.
And the point is that there is no such precedent to be found, and he just came up with such a viable idea.
And the first person to try the VIE structure was himself, and AB shares are so obviously inclined to protect the equity model of the founder and management, Zhou Quan did not agree at all, but just said that it needed to be considered, of course, after signing the financing contract, that is, nothing happened to him.
……
Leaving this building, Jiang Yizhou really sighed a little emotionally, if he wants to raise a little capital, it is extremely difficult, even more difficult than making such a thing, is it difficult to do it?
There is no money, who is to blame for dying before dawn, anyway, there will be latecomers who continue to try.
"Old Wu, my heart is really painful! 40% of the shares have been taken out at once, if you can't make a result, it's really time to hit the wall!" Walking side by side with Wu Tianming, Jiang Yizhou covered his chest and complained to him.
"Okay, okay, people are willing to pay 1 million, or dollars, in exchange for 40% of your shares, won't you, a guy with 60% of the shares, suddenly become a multimillionaire?
In Wu Tianming's opinion, he didn't feel anything wrong, and now it is already a success that he can't imagine, this broken company, eight computers, a phone, a server, a few tables, and a few interns, is so worth tens of millions?
What he did in Jinshan was software, the kind of software that was sold by the share, and he was quite confused about this kind of free service software, but he came to create history, the world's first instant messaging software, and the achievement has been achieved.
Up to now, Wu Tianming is not very optimistic about the prospects, and he doesn't know how to invest, which is probably the difference between the traditional software industry thinking and the Internet industry thinking.
Compared with those Internet companies in the future, hundreds of millions of dollars will burn money, or dollars, for what, for the number of users, not only let people use it for free, but even upside down money, red envelopes, limited exemptions, monthly subscriptions, lucky cards, send members, do everything, as for profits, go to him, as long as the user gets it, I am afraid that it will not make a profit?
He already admires the little friend surnamed Jiang next to him, although he is eighteen years old, he has not been to school, but his understanding of the computer and Internet field is much more advanced than him, at least people have easily become multimillionaires with such a software, although the shares are virtual, he is a little regretful, at least if he took out the 20,000 yuan he had saved and put it into a share......
Seeing Wu Tianming's somewhat complicated face, Jiang Yizhou sensed something and put his arm around his shoulder, "Do you regret not investing money in!"
Wu Tianming lifted his glasses and looked at Jiang Yizhou, although he didn't say anything, his eyes had betrayed him.
"Don't worry, I've already thought about it, if I can make the company public, I will give options to veterans like you Angkor. ”
Painting cakes to satisfy hunger, Wu Tianming's thoughts, you also thought of what happened after the listing, should you say that you are arrogant or arrogant!
……
"You are Miss Song!" Jiang Yizhou looked for the position mentioned on the phone, a woman in her thirties sat upright on the seat, and after he sat down, he said hello.
"Hello, you are ...... Mr. Jiang Yizhou?"Such a young guy, really not here to play?" Song asked.
Jiang Yizhou has long been accustomed to others suspecting him that he is young and unreliable, he has no academic qualifications, no certificates, and he is a person who has just become an adult, so he often encounters this kind of suspicious gaze.
"It's me, I think you're thinking, will this guy be a rich second generation who came out to play tickets, right?" After sitting down, Jiang Yizhou picked up the menu and joked while flipping through it.
"No, no, it's just a little curious, Mr. Jiang founded a company at such a young age, he is really young and promising!" Song Ru had just returned from abroad, and as a result, he received a job offer from IDG China for someone.
Jiang Yizhou is very self-aware of these things, knowing that he will do it, it will take a long time, and it may not be finished, from the VIE structure, to set up a company in the offshore archipelago, to set up a head office in Xiangjiang, and to govern two branches in China and the United States, it will not be long before he is a veritable foreign-funded enterprise, and he will definitely not be able to do it himself.
He also has no clue about recruitment, he has visited a few large-scale recruitment markets in Beijing, and the recruitment of high-end talents is like a fly without a head, so he has no choice but to entrust IDG.
Fortunately, it is also quite responsible and efficient, and even the United States has set up a temporary office, and there will be servers soon.
"I don't dare to be, it's just some luck, I don't know how much Miss Song knows about my company?" Jiang Yizhou got straight to the point.
Song Ru was stunned for a moment, and then summarized the information about Zhengyi Technology that he had read before, "I think, the reason why your company recruited me is to improve the company structure! Although your company has launched the software qim, the company's structure is completely at the level of a workshop!"
To put it simply, Zhengyi Technology is useless except for Jiang Yizhou and the QIM he developed, of course, it is impossible for Song Ru, who came back from the United States, to look down on them, Zhengyi Technology has a glorious future like those companies that have risen from the garage, and now is the time to get on the right track and move forward in a day.
