For (such a coquettish me) once again rewarded.

……

Sith and Cage, who hurried to New York, didn't expect Wen Ming to be so tossed at all.

"Wen Ming, do you know how much leave I have taken during this time?"

Cage is still in school, so naturally it is impossible for him to work full-time, and he promised to work part-time to help Wen Ming.

"If my mentor were to kill me, how do you think you should compensate me?"

In the suite meeting room of a high-end hotel, Wen Ming replied with a smile: "I didn't expect it to go so smoothly this time, if you want to blame, blame our company for developing too fast." ”

The lack of manpower is the biggest problem that Wen Ming's Apple is facing now, but as Wen Ming said, his company is growing too fast. In just over a month, it has earned more than $60 million in cash flow, and now it has to negotiate a financing case worth about $500 million.

After complaining a few words, Cage did not continue, because this kind of internship that can participate in real cases can improve his ability more than learning in the classroom.

Sith was in charge of this cooperation, and he brought one of his original lawyers, plus Cage, there were only three of them.

"What I'm most concerned about is, Teresa Roy, really agree with the $430 million valuation?"

This price is far beyond the imagination of the Sith, and it is also beyond Cage's imagination, they thought that the valuation of instagarm could reach 100 million US dollars, or even more, but it is also after the number of users has come up, and now instagarm, the registered users have just reached 8.9 million, less than 10 million, how can they get such a high valuation?

Wen Ming said confidently: "Of course, you should not only look at the number of 8.9 million registered users, but also see the growth rate of registered users." For us, there is no shortage of cash to grow Instagram in a short period of time, so if they want to ride with us, they will have to invest more money. ”

Not all investors have the magic to buy when the value of a company or product is at its lowest. Compared with the risk of high profits, buying shares of Instagram at this time reduces the profits, but the risks are also much lower.

Sith looked at Wen Ming, he really didn't know how to praise him, this ability to make money was completely beyond his imagination.

"You're saying we're going to immediately spin off Instagram from Apple, and then sell some of the new spin-off to Theresa Roy."

Wen Ming nodded and said, "Yes, our next plan is to manufacture hardware products, which will be Apple's main business." Moreover, I am very confident in my product, and if I sell Apple shares, it will definitely not be worth the loss. ”

Cage also knew Wenming's next step, because he was also involved in the work of applying for patented technology, and knew that many patents exist for hardware.

"There's no problem with that, because Apple is yours and doesn't have anyone else's rights involved. Therefore, it is very easy to split the product of Instagramarm. ”

Sith arranged: "Cage, I'll leave the work of splitting the Instagram tagarm to you, and I hope you can finish this work after we finish the negotiations and before we sign the contract." ”

Cage answered, and asked a little strangely, "Why us?" I'm going to split InstagramArm, shouldn't you be the one to negotiate? ”

Sith smiled and said, "Now there are only three of us who can participate in the negotiation and drafting of the terms of the contract, do you expect Wen Ming to be able to participate in this kind of detailed work?" ”

Cage looked at the innocent eyes of the other lawyer next to Sith, sighed and said, "I ask for a salary increase!" ”

Wen Ming clapped his hands and said, "I will take out one percent of the shares of Instagram to reward the company's employees." Of course, employees only have the right to dividends for this part of the shares, and they are not allowed to cash out for the time being. If we wait until we sell InstagramArm, the employees will be able to enjoy cash dividends. ”

If Wenming's request for the valuation of Instagram is $500 million, then one percent of the shares are worth $5 million. And when Instagram is completely sold, the value will only be higher, even reaching the $1 billion level, and one percent of the shares will be equivalent to $10 million.

Apple now has less than 100 employees, and if it is divided equally, each person can get at least $100,000 in dividends.

The three of them opened their mouths wide at the same time, looking at Wen Ming in disbelief, what is the concept of 100,000 US dollars?

Sith has been working as a lawyer for so many years, and he does not have a deposit of $100,000, of course, this is also related to his spending habits. However, the Sith never made $100,000 a year.

And Cage was even more shocked, he is still a student at Harvard University, and although his family conditions are good, he has never earned so much money. What's more, he and Sith and others can get more equity shares than ordinary employees.

"Are you crazy?"

These were Cage's exact words, and although Wen Ming was now his boss, he was not polite at all.

Sith also said: "Giving equity is a common means for many companies to win people's hearts, but those equity is given to the company's veterans when the company is inconspicuous, or when it goes public. You're no longer winning people's hearts, you're just spending money indiscriminately. ”

Wen Ming laughed happily, when the boss gave the employee equity, the employee scolded the boss, can this situation be imagined? But that's why he trusts Sith, Cage and others, and can really think about him, not just his own interests.

Looking at the constipated expression on the other lawyer's face, Wen Ming could imagine his inner activity.

"I am from Huaxia, and in our Huaxia, there is a very famous story called Qianjin buying horse bones!"

Wen Ming faced the three of them and said, "The content of the story is that there was a monarch in ancient China who wanted to buy a thousand-mile horse with 100 gold, but after finally buying it, the horse died. So the king bought the horse's bones for 500 gold. ”

"Then, people from other countries who had thousands of horses sent their horses to his country and wanted to sell them to him."

Cage clapped his hands and said, "I know what you mean, is that to publicize this matter well?" ”

Sith also understood, and said with admiration: "This method is very good, although spending money may not be able to invite qualified talents, but qualified talents must be paid accordingly." I believe that after this time, there will be many people who want to join our company. ”

Wen Ming said with a smile: "Publicity is definitely needed, because if this matter is publicized enough, it will be of great help to the valuation of InstagramArm." Believe this, Teresa Roy's side will also have someone to operate, and I hope you can connect with each other. ”

"No problem."

After Wen Ming said his mental price for the valuation of Instagram this time, as well as the bottom line of the equity transfer, he talked about another project.

"I needed to start a new company, a biotech company, and the company's first project was a biotech research with Teresa Roy."

After Wen Ming roughly talked about the plan to "resurrect" the dinosaurs, the three Sith were stunned again.

After Cage was stunned for a while, he directly reached out and touched Wen Ming's forehead, which was opened by Wen Ming with one hand.

Under the pain, Cage was unaware of it, and asked in a daze, "Wenming, are you crazy?" ”

Sith reacted and said a little nervously: "Actually, I have worked in New York for so many years, and I have also met several psychiatrists with good reputations. You know, sometimes we are very stressful lawyers, and we happen to be in New York, do you want me to ask them out for dinner? ”
