035-Negotiation
Chopfly had already had a conversation with the other side in his mind.
Who's on the other side? Who is he? What did he want to threaten himself?
Is he an indifferent male voice? A seductive female voice? Or even a misshapen tone created with a voice changer?
But I never expected that the other party came out of a child's voice.
"Friend, did you say you've heard of Little X?"
It seems that because of the reason why Chopfei didn't answer, the child voice on the other side asked again.
"I just heard the name today."
Chopfei decides to follow the other party's words for the time being, observing the other party's purpose before deciding on the next conversation.
"That's great."
The voice on the other side of the phone seemed to be very happy, "In that case, are you willing to join us and promote Little X to the world?" ”
"What do you mean?" Chopfly frowned, "Who are you?" Why should I join? Where is my utilization value and what kind of benefits can I get? ”
"Mr. Chop, you can call me X."
The child's voice on the phone said seriously, "It is a small organization that focuses on biotechnology as the research object, and this "Little X Translation Assistant" sent to you is the first artificial intelligence product under the X organization. ”
"If the organizations that can design these kinds of products are small organizations, wouldn't the company I own be nothing?" Chopping Fei snorted coldly.
"No, no, no! The reason why we are called 'small organizations' is because we don't have people in our organization. Tong Sheng explained, "So I went along the dark web and found you." ”
"What are you talking about, why don't I understand?"
Chopping Fei's expression was cold, and sure enough, the other party was found from the dark web.
"Of course, I didn't only find you, I also found King, SB, and CZH."
"Impossible!"
Chopping Fei's pupils shrank, and the phone was almost crushed by him, "You even found King, in reality?" ”
These English names may seem ordinary, even a little funny, but only people who have some experience in the hacker world will understand their horror.
Each of these names is a top figure in the hacking world.
"Of course, for me, your traces are too obvious."
Tong Sheng laughed, "The reason why I came to you is because you are all successful people who have worked hard by yourself, and there is no complicated background, so we can cooperate." ”
Chopping Fei only felt a chill on his back, and when he reached out to touch it, he found that he was already soaked in cold sweat.
If any hacker told him that he had found the real identities of King, SB and others, he would definitely scoff at it, but at this moment, he didn't have any idea that the other party was bragging......
Obviously, he must carefully clean up all traces every time, and even in the battle with whine a year ago, he only lost slightly.
Being able to find oneself without any awareness of oneself, what is this X, which is sacred?
Thinking of this, Chopping Fei took a deep breath, "Then what do you need us to do?" ”
"My request is very simple, I hope you can become a shareholder of Little X Translation Assistant."
Tong Sheng didn't seem to realize his image problem at all, and still said in a milky voice, "I hope you can raise funds for a company called 'Black Light Biotechnology Co., Ltd.', so that my company can avoid a lot of trouble." ”
"But in my opinion, we are not needed for this product."
Chopping frowned, "I believe that with the technology of this software, it can attract a large number of venture capital." ”
"But in that case, the product or even the company will not be completely my own."
Tong Sheng was a little helpless, "Although this is indeed a good choice, I hope that the company will always be under my control." ”
"I see."
Chopping nodded, most entrepreneurs have different feelings for their companies, which is normal, but if the company wants to become bigger and stronger, it needs investment from all parties, so there is a common situation in the industry such as angel investment.
Not all companies or projects can attract investment, and those that can really attract investment are all companies with strong potential and are favored by everyone.
But after all, capital is driven by profits, and it often happens that some companies have gone through several rounds of financing, and even the company has taken someone else's surname, and even the founder has been kicked out of the company from time to time.
If you don't accept financing, the other party can re-establish a company to compete with you based on your technology, and the only end for you who lacks funds is to be easily defeated by the other party and die with no place to bury.
That's why so many people love and hate VCs.
Capital never sleeps, and in the eyes of capital, there is no right or wrong, only interests.
However, if the shareholders of the company have the lifeblood in their own hands, of course, it is different, and the other party will not be able to meddle in the affairs of the company, and will not interfere with the privileges of the founder.
At this time, the meaning of this X seems to be so.
"Can I take these words as a threat?" Chopping Fei said coldly.
"If you're happy." X doesn't care about the Tao.
"So the last question, what can I get out of it?"
Chopfly asked again, "If I don't benefit from all this, and even take everything I have now, then I'm sorry, I'd rather die with you!" ”
"Ann, a, I'm not that kind of person."
X said, "Each of the four of you invests 10 million in my project, and I give you 2% of the shares, but on the condition that you don't meddle in any company's internal affairs, which should be reasonable, right?" ”
Chopping Fei was immediately laughed angrily, "Are you sure you're talking about the project "Little X Translation Assistant" and not the company?" 10 million for one person to share 2% of the shares? Why don't you just grab it? ”
"Two percent is a lot!"
X defended, "Maybe you have a slight lack of understanding of the scientific and technological capabilities of "Little X Translation Assistant", let's put it this way, as long as this software is on the market, it can solve any written communication problems, it is the only one in the world, beyond the existing AI translation technology for more than five years!" ”
Chopping Fei opened his mouth to refute, but suddenly his heart moved.
Although I was just a casual skimming before, the kind of font that can perfectly replace all the fonts of foreign language web pages, and there is no sense of disobedience, this level of technology, is really enough to beat any similar product as he said.
The other side doesn't seem to be exaggerating.
If this is really the case, then once this software is launched, it will definitely be a huge profit!
Thinking of this, Chopping Fei's original anger and resistance also lightened a little.
"Besides, my company will not only have the project of "Little X Translation Assistant" in the future."
X continued. "The company also has a 'simultaneous translation machine' under research, which is expected to be listed within half a year, and you will understand by then."
"Simultaneous translator?" Chopfei frowned, "It's the kind of thing that allows two people who don't speak the same language to communicate?" I've used this, but it doesn't work well. ”
"But we're different," X explained, "and you've probably seen The Wandering Earth, and our simultaneous translation is as good as in the movie." ”
Hearing this, Chopping Fei fell silent for a moment, and after a long while, he continued, "I need to think about it. ”
"No problem." X's damn child's voice was still chattering, "If you don't mind, in three hours, head to Mickey's Cafe in the city center, where you'll meet King, SB, and CZH, and we'll talk about it again." ”
