Chapter 118 Reaching a Cooperation Intention
"You mean you want to work with me to start a book planning company?" Liu Zelai pointed to his nose and asked Xiao Fei.
"That's right, I don't know what Mr. Liu thinks?" Xiao Fei looked at Liu Zelai with a sincere face, nodded, and waited for his answer.
Liu Zelai was silent for a while, and said: "I calculated, if you want to do this, you need at least 50,000 yuan in the early stage, renting an office, purchasing office supplies, hiring staff salaries, purchasing book numbers, printing fees that need to be paid to the printing house, channel development, and relationship with government departments, which all require money, and if you lose 50,000 yuan, you can't play at all." ”
When Xiao Fei heard this, he was stunned.
He didn't expect that Liu Zelai had already estimated the cost in that short period of time just now.
And the cost he calculated was so small.
He thought about it, and then suddenly realized that when he was considering opening a book company as a whole, his thinking was still a little inertial and thinking according to the standards of his previous life.
He forgot one thing: even in the last few years of the '90s, prices had risen dramatically, but the costs were still much, much lower than in later generations.
To open a book planning company, at the beginning, there is no need to set up too big a stall, and after completing the business license or something, rent a room, hire two miscellaneous clerks and find two part-time editors, buy a computer and a photocopier, buy a few tables, hang a sign, and start business, or, for the sake of low profile, there is no need to even hang a signboard.
Computers and photocopiers may cost some money, and the rest really don't need much money.
As for the cost of the book number, as long as it is related, it can not be spent a few dollars to get it from the publishing house, and even the printing fee can be owed on credit in advance.
It can be operated in the style of a leather bag company.
In terms of market development, that is, the development of channels for selling books, Xiao Fei believes that it is completely possible to make use of Liu Zelai's network, integrate his friends from all over the world, and let them work part-time as salesmen in the local area, run local bookstores or something, and earn a lot of extra money while not affecting their work, I believe that many people are willing to do it.
When Xiao Fei thought of this, he couldn't suppress his excitement.
Originally, he was still worried about the cost of starting a company, thinking that he would need to invest at least hundreds of thousands of yuan in the early stage, but now, he really has nowhere to raise this large amount of hundreds of thousands, unless he will have this money until he successfully buys the earthwork contracted in November.
If it's just a few tens of thousands of dollars, it's much easier.
He writes more magazine manuscripts, plus the manuscript fee he earns, and if the collection of Hexi Literature and Art Publishing House goes well, it can be published in a month, and then he will definitely be able to sell more books and get a little more royalties with the help of media hype, and he will almost be able to make up enough.
"Teacher Liu, I can think of a way to take out the 50,000 yuan in batches within a month and a half." Xiao Fei said to Liu Ze.
Liu Zelai nodded silently.
He also calculated an account for Xiao Fei, if Xiao Fei worked hard, he could indeed raise this money.
"If that's the case, it's not impossible for us to cooperate, but the ugly words ahead, I can only work part-time on this book planning company, and I will never lose my current job until the company is not on the right track. However, in addition to compiling manuscripts, my time is actually relatively free, and I can use my spare time outside of my own work to manage the company's operations. Liu Ze said.
"Naturally, at the beginning of the company's establishment, it was impossible to launch too many book projects at once, and could only focus on launching one or two books to test the market's reaction." Xiao Fei said.
"As for the company's shares, I distribute them in this way, I own 60%, Mr. Liu accounts for 30%, and the remaining 10% is used to distribute the backbone personnel who will join the company one after another. Xiao Fei took a sip of tea and continued.
Liu Zelai listened, shook his head and said: "The shares given to me are a bit too much, the funds are borne by yourself, I just run errands and take care of things, and share so many shares with you, there is a suspicion of taking advantage of you, why don't you give me 10% of the shares and pay me a little salary every month, how about it?" ”
From this point, it can be seen that Liu Zelai's character is good.
He is very responsible and not greedy. When he judges that the feasibility of something is relatively large, he will not hesitate for too long, but will make a decision immediately, but at this time he is quite cautious, he is not impulsive, and he will think of leaving a way back for himself.
Cooperate with such people, there will not be too much trouble in the follow-up, everyone is a reasonable person, talk about the rules, and do it according to the rules, then they will get along well with each other, and there will be no dirty infighting.
Xiao Fei has at least thousands of classic books in his head, and to set up this book planning company, he only needs to pour out the famous book ideas and famous books in his head, and if he plans it properly, he believes that he will be able to make his book company the largest and best in China.
As long as this company can be started, Xiao Fei believes that it will be able to quickly achieve huge profits in the shortest possible time, and hundreds of millions of dollars a year can be completely realized.
By that time, every point of the company's stake is a huge fortune.
Xiao Fei didn't know if Liu Zelai could think of this.
But since Liu Zelai can so readily agree to cooperate with him after explaining the business scope of the company he opened, this is enough to prove that he has a certain forward-looking vision, and he also believes that this industry is promising.
In this case, Liu Zelai can give up the 30% of the shares he gave him and only take 10%, which is too commendable.
"Okay, I respect Mr. Liu's decision, but my personal 60% of the shares remain unchanged, Mr. Liu, you account for 10% of the shares, and the remaining 30% can not be distributed for the time being, and after the company develops, it will be used to reward the company's employees who have made great contributions to the company, is this good?" Xiao Fei asked.
Liu Zelai nodded in agreement.
Xiao Fei struck while the iron was hot, took out a pen and paper, and drafted a cooperation agreement.
The name of the company is preliminarily set as "Hanmo Culture Co., Ltd.", and the business scope of the company applying for an industrial and commercial business license is book distribution and planning. But in fact, it also includes the editing and publishing business, which cannot be written on the surface.
The company's current temporary partners are Xiao Fei and Liu Zelai.
The investor is Xiao Fei, and Liu Zelai is the main partner, with his own technology and management as a shareholder.
Such items are listed and written on the back of a page of manuscript paper.
After the agreement was drawn up, the terms were finalized one by one, and then they were taken to a nearby typing shop, entered into an electronic document, printed out, and each person signed the agreement, and pressed the fingerprint.
The two made an appointment, and Liu Zelai first applied for a business license and set up a company in Zhongyuan City, while Xiao Fei was responsible for fund raising and book planning during this period.
At this time, it was already evening.
Liu Ze can't come.
Xiao Fei opened a house for Liu Zelai in Heyang Hotel, and invited him to a meal in the evening. Xiao Fei hurried to the school. Today, two major events have been accomplished in a row, and he is in a very happy mood.
