Chapter 131: How Many Cattle
At present, Li Jiaming doesn't have much thought, if it weren't for the little four strongmen, he would rather go to the canteen to eat.
TOEFL is a test that can be passed, but the GRE test is difficult, I was busy last year and didn't take the test, and this year I have to take it out of the test. If you have this meal time, you might as well memorize a few more words in school.
"Don't drink, just say something".
"Hey", knowing the temper of the boss, the fourth child didn't talk much, and motioned to the waiter to serve the meal directly. Southerners are still accustomed to eating rice, and they can't eat northern pasta.
"Boss, the QQ you developed is easy to use, especially the online music software. I wondered if I could make something similar to a Walkman and download songs from the Internet.
I searched for information during this time, and I found a company in the United States......"
There are so many smart people in the world, but there are too few people who can turn ideas into reality. Li Jiaming, who was secretly emotional, glanced at the 00 that Xiao Sixiang took out like a treasure, shook his head and said: "We are doing this, from December last year to now, a total of almost 18 million has been invested, and not even a sample has been taken out." ”
Xiaosi suddenly understood, why didn't the boss personally handle such a good business plan.
"I can't say that, that plan is too tiring, and it won't work for four or five years to see results. You only see logistics, and I am most afraid of financial control, as long as the central government does not relax financial policies, there is no way to establish a third-party payment platform. Without this, this line of work would not have been able to do much at all. ”
"Aren't our four major state-owned banks already commercialized?"
The commercialization of banks does not mean the liberalization of financial policies, which requires a long process. What's more, it's not really commercial, it's just a different name, raising money from the stock market. With the current national situation, if finance is completely liberalized, God knows what will happen, but what is certain is that it will definitely be sheared by the Americans.
"That?"
Xiao Si suddenly realized that the boss only invests in e-commerce and does not do it, that is, he has no confidence in the country's liberalization of financial policies. The financial turmoil of '97 has taught everyone too painful lessons, Southeast Asia's economy has regressed for 20 years overnight, who dares to let it go easily?
With the heart of a villain, Li Jiaming said disdainfully: "The country will definitely be liberalized, but I don't know when, you can afford to drag it, I can't afford to drag it." With my entrepreneurial experience, as long as I can pass the GRE, what school can't I go to?"
Xiao Si was speechless, if he had the ability to be the boss and become the richest man a long time ago, what kind of academic certificate would he need? This is a big era, if you miss this era, you really missed it. Reading is different, you can read it in school, you can read it in the company, do you need to be so serious?
It's all right, but it's not suitable for himself, Li Jiaming left after eating, and went back to school to seize the last few days to gnaw words. After taking the GRE exam, he took the final exam immediately, and Li Jiaming, who had been busy for a semester, had time to care about the company's progress.
Facts speak louder than words, Li Jiaming's practice of delegating power is correct, and the incentive of futures stocks is also correct, and the work that I thought would take a year and a half to complete has not yet passed half of the time, and half of the task has been completed.
It's just that this money is a bit too much, and I spent a full 60 million yuan in half a year, burning an average of 10 million RMB every month. If you add the income from selling instant messaging software, more than 80 million have been burned in half a year. Only he dares to burn this money, and he may not dare to burn it like this if it is replaced by sohu.
"Senior, how far in advance?"
"Two months, we had to allow enough time for testing. ”
"In other words, after October, most of the people in the company will be idle?"
Li Jiaming's reminder reminded Wang Zhidong of QQ, and now that the number of users has reached nearly 20 million, it's time to tell him the profit model. Employees can't be idle, these engineers and programmers are all paid thousands of dollars. When developing a new product, most of the people's salaries are paid by Li Jiaming, but once the development is successful, the engineer does not want to take advantage of it, but what about the programmer? The salary alone will make him bear a huge debt.
This is really a good person, no wonder every time he encounters a hurdle that cannot be passed, there will always be a noble person to pull a hand, this is the success of being a man.
"It's not enough, at least 50 million users. Senior, don't worry, you're just adding a little bit to the debt, I'm paying real money!"
Others just didn't say anything, what Wang Zhidong had to do, so he had to remind: "Jiaming, I can tell you that I owe you more than 10 million now." If I can't afford it, I'll declare bankruptcy at best!"
"Cut, isn't it just a thousand thousands? The company collapses, even if I am unlucky, I promise that I will not force you to go into debt!"
flipped through the statistical table on the table, Li Jiaming found the figure of 0icq again, this small company is really an unbeatable little strong, and the number of users is more than 1.4 million. Lifang's sinicization QQ is the earliest, the most convenient promotion, the most investment, the best service, and has been encircling and suppressing opponents, but it has been developed by this 0icq to almost 1.5 million users?
After hesitating for a moment, Li Jiaming handed out a cigarette to Wang Zhidong and asked, "Senior, do you know that SOHU has acquired NetEase Online?"
"You know, I heard that their boss has become the boss of your Shencheng branch?"
"Yes, in the form of share exchange, their website is converted into 5% of our SOHU shares, and they give their boss SOHU co-founder and director status. ”
Wang Zhidong was secretly unconvinced, but he had to swallow this breath, that small company is really powerful, I heard that there are only about 20 people, and it only took half a year for the number of users to jump from the bottom to the fourth, second only to.
"Yes, how fast can you develop on your own. Seniors, being an Internet company is actually who runs faster than whom, and the fastest way to grow is to acquire. I want to talk to this Ma Huateng, if he is willing to be acquired by us, we can completely merge into one company and encircle the remaining competitors. ”
Of course, more than 1.4 million users are good, but the price is not easy to set, both companies are in the red, maybe the other party's situation is slightly better. It's really Jiaming, this kid is too good at spending money, with an average monthly salary of 5,000, even such a giant is not so high, if Lifang didn't do this, he wouldn't lose so much.
"Senior, if you don't have such a high salary, can you make these people feel at ease? Look at the situation of our company--strong soldiers! I bet that purely in terms of technology, except for the dozen or so people who started with SOHU, there is no company in China that can compare with us. ”
"That's right, to the point, what if they don't want to?"
Unwilling? Li Jiaming sneered: "If he doesn't want to, then kill him! With more than 1.4 million users, just a small company like theirs, can afford the cost of hardware? It must be that the software is secretly put in other people's servers, and you go to find out some evidence, and if he refuses, then directly find someone to sue them." ”
Wang Zhidong took a breath of cold air, this kid is too ruthless, but compared to the situation of Lifang at the beginning, OICQ is 100% stealing other people's server space. Now OICQ is dead, but it's a pity for their team.
"Senior, you also think too hard about me, what if someone agrees?"
"And what about your bottom line?"
If you agree, then it's good to discuss. For Internet companies, assets and liabilities are meaningless, what is really meaningful is the number of users! This little brother is awesome, the number of users far exceeds the number of junk software in less than half a year, not to mention, and actually began to catch up, if he is given such a condition, he will definitely be able to create a miracle of Tengxin in the previous life.
"The bottom line is 20%, I want him to be the CEO of QQ, and you will be the CTO and vice chairman of the head office. ”
Li Jiaming picked up the black whiteboard marker in front of the whiteboard and drew the company structure in his mind - Lifang Network and Hanhua Electronics are the base, and Datang Technology Co., Ltd. is the spire.
"In the future, we will do a new project, if it is a physical product related to the Internet, it will be placed in Hanhua Electronics, if it is a pure Internet application, it will be placed in Lifang Network, and you and I are the chairman and CEO and vice chairman and CTO of Datang. ”
This is very sincere, but it is also the most untrustworthy, Wang Zhidong only holds shares in Lifang, how can he be the number two person of the parent company? No matter how good a person is, it is impossible for him to give up the power in his hands and become an empty ornament.
Li Jiaming really has no intention of setting up this legendary figure, purely in terms of technology, this guy is said to be the second in the industry, and it is estimated that no one dares to call him the first, even if it is Qiu Bojun of Jinshan. If such a person is in the air, he is used as an ornament, unless there is something wrong with his brain.
"Senior, Hanhua may still be listed, but Datang will not be listed. I can promise you that after the MP3 is successfully developed, 10% of the shares of the profit party will be used to replace 5% of the shares of the parent company, or I can lend you money to buy 5% of the shares of the parent company."
Under the heavy profit, Wang Zhidong couldn't help but be careless, and hurriedly said: "What about the factory?"
During the summer vacation, I would go to the south to inspect and select a preliminary list of OEM manufacturers and spare parts suppliers for Sister Ren. By the way, I also want to meet that Ma Huateng, this person is not simple, I can conclude that he did not take venture capital, but surpassed a group of miscellaneous troops such as ICQQ and began to catch up. ”
Wang Zhidong doesn't care what Li Jiaming does about this, because he is not good at this kind of intrigue, he cares more about another thing. One is predictable prospects, the other is unpredictable, and Wang Zhidong doesn't want to owe Li Jiaming too much. Although the company collapses, the money does not have to be returned, but what about human favors?
"Or, I will exchange 10% of Lifang's shares for 5% of the parent company's shares?"
"Senior, don't regret it in the future. ”
"If you have the ability to turn Lifang into the second China Net, I will take 1%, which is enough for me to use for a lifetime!"
This stabbed Li Jiaming's lungs, and he said unhappily: "The click-through rate and revenue of China.com are considered farts compared to sohu?"
"So I didn't expect to be sohu."
Damn, Hong Kong-based China.com isn't really a piece of, they're already listed on the NASDAQ. 15% of the shares have melted more than 90 million US dollars, and the stock price is still rising rapidly, one percent is nearly 100 million is still far away, the above has introduced a policy to allow listing in the United States, and there is a public relations of Mr. Liu, and the Ministry of Information Industry has not given approval.
