Chapter 520: Venture Capital
Shen Yiyi has enough confidence to assure his friends that he has the conscience of an engineering woman who is a part-time businessman. The same is true of her advice to her business partner Wang Kai. Even if you only buy this technology yourself, you can't keep the price too low. Because she believes that the creativity of this team can bring more benefits to herself in the future than temporary gains and losses.
Qian Qian and the other three have not played much in the business world, so relevant business experience is also lacking. They were naturally moved by Shen Yiyi's statement. And Sun Yunyun even stood up and said to Shen Yiyi: "Yiyi, don't treat us too preferentially." How you negotiate business with others, how you negotiate with us. In business. ”
When Shen Yi saw her say this, he was a little amused and a little moved.
"Yunyun, don't say that. If I really treat you the same way I treat you as I do to other merchants, then you will lose a lot. I think that in addition to being a businessman, my identity is more of a product engineer and a scientific researcher. I want to respect the value of researchers. And to be honest, the money I spend can be earned back from other places. So don't worry, I won't lose money. "The final price of the product converted into a product is borne by the customer rather than the cost of purchasing a patent. So Shen Yiyi was not wrong to say this. It's just that none of you here have studied economics, so the concept of this aspect is not very clear.
Sun Yunyun was polite and did not object. In fact, few people will say no to the benefits sent to the door. Of course, sometimes the necessary gestures still have to be done. Because it's a trick to being human.
Sun Yunyun asked again: "Okay." One one. So what is your main purpose in bringing us all together today? Did you tell us that the patent was sold? ”
Shen Yiyi breathed a sigh of relief. Sun Yunyun finally asked a core question. The reason why she wants to solve this problem as soon as school starts is naturally because she has her own plans. Because the next problem that the team will face is, in Shen Yiyi's opinion, the problem that really makes her feel a sense of crisis.
Since Shen Yiyi agreed to buy the right to use the technology patent at a reasonable price. Then naturally, you won't be stingy when you give money. It's really a small amount of money, and people don't care too much. But if it's a huge amount of money, it will cause huge contradictions. At that time, how will this fee be distributed, whether you take more points or I take more points, it is very likely that it will break the scalp. Originally, this was also a beautiful thing, and college students who were still studying in universities could make a fortune by making scientific research results. How can you evaluate an advanced, pacesetter, or something. But if you really break your head for money, it will not only be a beautiful thing, but a troublesome thing.
"I'm bringing everyone together. In fact, it is necessary to discuss what everyone is going to do with this money. Shen Yiyi said his intentions one by one.
Foodie Tian Wenxia immediately raised her hand: "What should I do?" Let's have a meal. What else can you do but eat a meal. Don't go to the cafeteria, go to the restaurant. Her cheeks were flushed with food.
Shen Yiyi smiled: "Hongxia, the problem is that the amount of money is too big. I'm afraid you won't be able to eat it all in a year. "Think about royalties if they were taken on a pro-rata basis. That's really as long as her products have been supplied to the market, the payment of royalties will be endless. I'm afraid that Yangtian Hongxia, a foodie, is more than enough for a lifetime.
The three of them were taken aback when they heard Shen Yiyi's words. It's not that they didn't think that this patent fee could be a huge amount of money, but they didn't think that they could really get more money than they could have imagined. This was really unexpected.
Tian Hongxia murmured even more: "Are there so many?" ”
Shen Yi nodded: "Yes." I've already said that I won't bully people like ordinary businessmen, so I'll give you what you deserve. The question now is how exactly this money should be given. ”
Sun Yunyun asked: "How to give the meaning of the Fa ......?"
Shen Yiyi replied: "When our team conducted research at that time, we just treated this topic as a coursework. Everyone also participated purely as a personal interest and hobby. It should be said that everyone's thoughts at that time were very pure, and they never thought about the issues such as the involvement and distribution of interests in the future. But this also lays a hidden danger for the current patent development. ”
"At that time, we didn't agree what our relationship would be if it was fruitful. How should we distribute the benefits? Of course. Ideally, each person is allocated based on their contribution to the project. But there's a big problem. Because first of all, we can't say exactly how much each person is contributing to the project. Our results are more the result of collective wisdom. Also, if there is no agreement. The benefits of collective results are legally tacitly and equally distributed. If anyone is unhappy about this, it can lead to lawsuits. ”
Shen Yiyi confided in several roommates about the potential litigation crisis and legal risks.
Several little girls didn't expect that such a simple thing that seemed to them would become a very troublesome thing in Shen Yiyi's mouth. Even Shen Yiyi raised legal issues that they never thought of.
"Wouldn't it? These are all classmates, and they won't ask such unreasonable questions, right? Qian Qian said with some disbelieving.
Shen Yiyi disagreed: "This can't be said to be unreasonable. I'm just telling you that, legally, in the current situation, it is true that each of you participants in the project has such rights. So you can go to court and claim your rights. Although the process of litigation will be troublesome, and according to the principle of China's civil law, if you want to fight for a larger share, it also means that you have to bear more burden of proof. This is not an easy task. ”
The three little girls are you look at me, and then I'll look at you again. They all knew in their hearts that if they really wanted to prove themselves in the whole research process of the subject. How much they contributed, the three of them really can't say. Moreover, they don't think they know much about lawsuits.
Instead, Sun Yunyun asked: "Then if someone is dissatisfied with the distribution." Who will he sue? ”
Shen Yiyi pointed to his nose one by one: "Of course it's to sue me." Because I bought the patent, and I gave you money, if you are not satisfied with your share, the easiest solution is to sue me. ”
As soon as he heard Shen Yiyi say that he was in a lawsuit with her, even if one of the three of them began to have a little activity in his heart, he no longer thought about it at this moment. Fight a lawsuit with Shen Yiyi? No kidding. You are not as rich as anyone else, and you are not as powerful as anyone else. Such a lawsuit cannot be won at all. It also ruined the relationship between classmates between each other in vain.
These three people were all human spirits, and they quickly made all the decisions to listen to Shen Yiyi's arrangements. Smart people such as Sun Yunyun also said directly to Shen Yiyi: "Oh, who will sue you." If it weren't for you. Where is the money to take. It's enough to get a little profit, where to care about so much. One by one, what do you think, you can just tell us about it. Let's listen. ”
Shen Yiyi saw that the fire was almost over. also told these three roommates all his calculations.
"Actually, this money. If it is divided into everyone's hands, there will be some people who feel unbalanced in their hearts. Because at this time, people's subjectivity will tend to magnify their contributions in the work in order to get more rewards. And these are not clear at all without prior agreement, because there is no unified standard. If there is really no contradiction, then only everyone should not get any pay. ”
Qian Qian was a little dizzy when she heard this: "Wait, one by one." You said that everyone should not be paid anything. Is that saying you're not going to pay for this patent? But you were still saying that you would give us a reasonable reward. ”
Shen Yi saw that she was a little confused, so he picked up a piece of paper. Pick up another pen and start drawing on paper.
"You see, this is the money I prepared to buy this patent. So this is a group of us. This money was meant to be given to a group of us. Naturally, each of us gets our share. But in order to avoid any contradictions about the share of each person, the money is not distributed to everyone now. You see, let's say the money was sent to us, but before it was sent to us, it was stolen by a thief. Didn't everyone get the money, but I already gave the money? Shen Yiyi used the patterns on the picture to explain what he meant.
Tian Hongxia shouted: "But who is this thief." Where did he get our money? ”
Shen Yiyi really wanted to hold his forehead with his hands and sigh. This classmate shouldn't be so sluggish. She didn't even know how to make an analogy with herself. But she's still part of the whole team that she wants to fight for, so I still have to explain to her patiently.
"Hongxia, it's not that there really are thieves, it's just that the money was used by someone else after it left my hands and before it reached you. It's not that everyone hasn't gotten the money, so they won't have other superfluous thoughts, but they're distracted by where the money is going? ”
"But who else used the money?" Tian Hongxia still grasped this problem.
Shen Yiyi said, "Okay." For example, everyone agreed to donate the money to charity, for example, to Project Hope. She was really gone, so she casually said a possible use.
Unexpectedly, Shen Yiyi just said this, and the three roommates understood. Tian Hongxia clapped her hands even more: "Hey! Why didn't you say it earlier? If you had said that you would donate to Project Hope, then I wouldn't have asked. That's right, just donate, and everyone will have no other opinions. That's for the best. ”
Shen Yiyi didn't expect Tian Hongxia to accept this donation to charity so quickly. This was a bit of a surprise to her. She glanced at Qian Qian and Sun Yunyun again, wanting to see if these two had the same thoughts as Tian Hongxia. As a result, she really saw the expressions of approval on the faces of Qian Qian and Sun Yunyun.
Shen Yiyi is easy to accept such a fact. The thinking of people in this era, who have not experienced the turmoil of the Red Cross Society in the ******, is simple and absolutely kind. You see, as long as you mention Project Hope, then everyone can accept the idea of donating their proceeds to that noble cause.
However, Shen Yiyi's purpose was not to donate to the Hope Project. She's going to twist the team together. If you donate the money all at once, everyone will only be moved for a short time, and when you graduate, don't you still have to go your separate ways, and then contact less and less? That's not what she wanted.
So Shen Yiyi still wanted to take back the topic. She thought for a moment and said, "I didn't say that the income was actually donated directly to Project Hope. Actually, I think we should do something a little different from the others. Our money should be spent where it makes more sense. ”
Qian Qian asked very cooperatively: "Then what kind of meaningful place is it?" ”
When people speak, they still need someone to respond to them. If you really keep singing a one-man show and no one pays attention to you, then the disease commonly known as embarrassing cancer will attack. So Shen Yiyi is still very grateful to Qian Qian for being so reconciled with him.
"For example, we are all scientists. We are also university students. We all know that it's not easy for college students to do a little bit of scientific research. Of course, we were lucky this time, and a small amount of coursework paid off. Of course, I am not polite to say that I also contributed a little material and equipment to the success of the research project. What Shen Yiyi said was approved by the roommates on the side.
"Well, the rest of the students may not have the same good luck as us. They may also have good design ideas and ideas, but don't have the resources to support their research. If we were to use our funds to support these people, would it make more sense than simply sponsoring an out-of-school child? Because sponsoring an out-of-school child is nothing more than one less illiterate child in the world. But funding a scientific research undertaking is a great expedition to lead humanity into uncharted territory. Isn't this the lofty sense of mission that we should have as scientists? Shen Yiyi described his vision to his roommates in a seductive tone.
Seeing that the three roommates were led into a beautiful imagination by themselves, Shen Yiyi further concluded: "So, I think it's better for us to simply use this income to build a venture capital." (To be continued.) )
