According to a notice issued by the official account of Jingzhou University, Tao Zerong knew that the developer of the image restoration tool was a student, which is why he took advantage of the weekend to plan the acquisition proposal, and reported to Zhang Zhaojie's office first thing when he arrived at the company.

I hope that the company can buy this software and use it for the upgrade of the platform's beautification function.

At that time, he will be the biggest contributor to the company's benefits.

Out of stereotypes about college students with no social experience, he believes that the offer of five million is not low.

As long as you negotiate and persuade the other party with your heart, there is no reason why you can't take it.

For this reason, he also thought of a lot of negotiation methods on the way.

But who would have thought that the final negotiation object was not the developer of the software himself.

Of course, they can also go to Jingzhou University directly bypassing the company, but let's not talk about whether they can find anyone, I'm afraid that the school won't buy their account.

After a brief analysis of the current situation, Tao Zerong finally decided to stay and talk about it for the time being.

After all, they have all come, and they can't go back to Zhang Zhaojie's side like this.

"Do you have the authority to represent the company?"

Tao Zerong looked at Meng Songyan and asked again, while looking at the surroundings with the corner of his eye.

Although the gap is very simple, and the number of employees can be counted with one hand, everyone's eyes are full of passion and confidence, like a true portrayal of the company's early days.

This made his heart more and more bitter.

Because this shows that the owner of the company is ambitious, so he will definitely not sell the company's first product easily.

"I think I have, please come with me." Meng Songyan made a gesture of please, led Tao Zerong and them to his office, and passed by Zheng Jianhao's workstation and did not forget to arrange: "Xiaohao, pour a few glasses of water and send them to my office." ”

"Okay, Manager Meng." Zheng Jianhao nodded in response.

Meng Songyan's office was no different from the outside, except for a desk and a few chairs.

For Tao Zerong, the workplace elites who are used to sitting on the sofa seem a little at a loss.

But Meng Songyan also beckoned them to sit down.

"Everyone, please take a seat."

"The company has just started to operate, and many things have not been purchased, so please forgive me."

"It's okay."

In order to maintain the company's image and his own demeanor, Tao Zerong responded generously, and reluctantly found a chair to sit down.

The same was true for the other people around him.

Soon, Zheng Jianhao came in with a few cups of tea, handed them to everyone and stood beside Meng Songyan, and did not turn around to leave.

There are few people in the company, and at this time, someone comes to talk about cooperation, and they must help the town.

Tao Zerong knew that he had lost the initiative, and after introducing each other, he simply went straight to the point, took out a document from his bag and handed it to Meng Songyan: "This is our company's acquisition plan, Manager Meng can take a look at it first." ”

"Okay."

Meng Songyan took the document and looked at it carefully.

After a while, his brows tightened.

"Don't you think five million is too little?" In the next second, he directly closed the file and asked the header.

From the launch of the image restoration tool to today, the number of payments has reached more than 100,000 times, and Douyu only paid five million to buy out the entire image restoration tool software, I really don't know who gave them this courage.

Although Tao Zerong is from a technical background, he can be regarded as an old fritter after so many years in the workplace.

In the face of this question, he didn't feel embarrassed at all, and immediately took out the rhetoric that he had prepared a long time ago and said: "I think Manager Meng should also know that the data of this software is showing a downward trend at the moment, and the number we give is calculated in detail." ”

In fact, according to Meng Songyan's plan, he will indeed use technology to cooperate with other companies.

But it's not that kind of buyout.

Seeing that the other party's attitude was quite resolute, he didn't bother to waste time, so he immediately said his psychological price.

"I'm so sorry."

"Our boss has long said that Deepin Technology will only adopt the operation model of technology licensing."

"We can provide technical support for portrait beautification models, but your company needs to pay an annual license fee."

Tao Zerong really didn't expect that the quotations of the two sides would be so different, which was beyond the scope of his rights, although he had basically guessed the final result in his heart, he was still a little unwilling to explain the situation here to Zhang Zhaojie.

"I need to ask the company for instructions, please wait."

"Absolutely."

With that, he pulled out his phone, got up, walked outside the office, and dialed the phone.

Meng Songyan glanced at the other party's back, picked up the water cup in front of him and drank it indifferently.

Within two minutes, Tao Zerong walked in with a black face, obviously reprimanded by the company's leaders.

"I'm sorry Manager Meng, I'm afraid this cooperation will be forced to be suspended."

Holding back the anger in his heart, he said to Meng Songyan, and immediately took people away.

"Let's go."

After the other party left, Song Yupeng pushed the door in from the outside, and complained very unhappily: "These people really think that we are so easy to deceive, just give some money and want to buy the software, and I don't go to research technology every day to think about it." Obviously, I heard Meng Songyan's conversation just now.

When he was in school, he often heard that a certain technology developed by his seniors was stolen by an outside company at a price far below the market value, so he really didn't have a good impression of such companies.

"Not choosing to cooperate with us is their own loss, what we have to do is to ensure that the new version will be launched smoothly tomorrow."

Meng Songyan still said calmly, but the strong confidence in his eyes proved that he was looking forward to the launch of the new version.

This confidence comes from the image restoration tools developed by Deepin Technology and Xu Yun.

"Don't worry, manager, the server and bandwidth have been increased, which can definitely guarantee the user's experience."

"The new version of the promotional video has also been produced, and it will be released tomorrow at the same time as the new version." Next to him, Zheng Jianhao took Song Yupeng's words and added.

In the following time, Song Yupeng and Zheng Jianhao continued to confirm the details to ensure that there would be no accidents tomorrow.

Meng Songyan took out his mobile phone and reported what happened just now to Xu Yun.

If there are companies willing to come to cooperate, it shows that the direction of free operation of image restoration tools is very correct, and when the popularity and user base are increasing, the cost of technology licensing will only continue to rise.

Following.

Twelve o'clock in the afternoon.

With the release of a video titled "Make Photos Move" on the accounts of various platforms of Deepin Technology, everyone was surprised to find that the image restoration tool that became popular not long ago has been updated.

What's more, it also officially announced that it will be free of charge.

As soon as the news came out, it immediately caused a heated discussion among users.

And under everyone's tap water publicity, it has topped the hot search list on Weibo, and the number of users is rising at a very terrifying rate.
