The preparation and cost of starting a business are still quite high, and many steps are more cumbersome.

If it weren't for the two splits, if he was not careful enough to be financially free, Meng Fanqi might still prefer to receive money lying down in the technical shares.

Among them, the largest consumption is mainly office premises, which cannot be obtained without purchasing a good place, and the company's license and bank account cannot be obtained.

Then there are the others, which are the procurement of office equipment and related computing equipment.

To do AI-related technology entrepreneurship, there is no way to save hardware in this area, not only high-priced graphics cards need a lot.

Other CPUs, memory and hard disks that are used as supports, etc., must not be saved.

In a place like Shanghai, the rental price is down to the level of per square meter per day, so there is really no need.

At this time, the information on the Internet is not as detailed as the back, and it is always necessary to visit the site, which is really energy-consuming.

On the occasion of Christmas, the white-skinned and black-skinned people on the other side of the Pacific Ocean are singing and dancing, and the country is still brightly lit.

"If you want to say that Google is rich, the rent of the World Financial Center is so luxurious, more than 20 yuan per square meter per day, which is seven or eight times that of the Caohe River." At this time, the office building near Caohe was only one or two yuan per square meter per day, and the area of three or four hundred square meters was ten thousand yuan a month.

Meng Fanqi came to the familiar and somewhat unfamiliar vicinity of the Cao River again, but this time he did not come to work, but to find his own office space.

He was accompanied by a middle-aged man with a dignified face, who had experience in JunHe and specialized in the settlement of Internet e-commerce, cross-border e-commerce and capital equity.

He is also familiar with the digital economy and Internet pan-finance.

However, due to the disagreement with individual bigwig partners, his promotion and work were not smooth, and he was almost 50 years old before he knew it, so he felt tired in such a situation, and he wanted to come out to change his mood.

Gao Wenhe has a lot of cooperation with Google's Shanghai advertising division, so he is familiar with some Google employees.

Since the amount of shares that Google Ads is going to give to Meng Fanqi this time is too large, Shanghai is Gao Wenhe who is responsible for docking, and explains to Meng Fanqi about the splitting and tax avoidance of this part.

This is also Gao Wenhe's last work assignment at JunHe.

He never imagined that it was this mission that completely changed the direction of his future life.

When JunHe encountered a bottleneck, he was disheartened and ran away to be a free man, but he accidentally regained his second spring at this age, and he became the No. 1 employee and chief legal counsel of the AI empire in the future in a field that he didn't understand at all.

Life is so absurd.

"Little brother, do you want to buy or rent, our real estate company still has a lot of resources in this vicinity. High-rise views, private detached houses, everything you need. ”

He had just confirmed that Meng Fanqi was not a clerk, but the boss himself. The guy next to him who looked like a boss was an employee.

Yan Changchun has not been in the industry for a long time, less than three years.

However, he estimated that in his future career, he may not have the opportunity to see such a young boss.

"I want to send my little brother here, it's not like the company hasn't started yet." Meng Fanqi didn't think there was anything wrong with picking the company's address, after all, if you have to interview others, it always seems much more professional to have an office space.

Besides, if you don't book it early, the time will be a little insufficient.

"Whether to buy or rent, I didn't think about it. Maybe take a look at the rent first, 300 square meters in these two months is definitely enough, and you may have to change it again in the future. If you really want to see that it is very suitable, you can consider buying it for about 500 square meters. ”

Meng Fanqi also wanted to do it in one step and get one or two thousand square meters, but he was afraid that the money on hand would not be enough to squander. If you really want to see what you like, you should be able to buy it by gritting your teeth.

At this time, the office building near Caohe River also costs 10,000 yuan per level, and if you want to do it in one step, you will basically empty out the 24 million yuan that Meng Fanqi has on hand.

Meng Fanqi followed Yan Changchun to walk around the Cao River, and saw several sets of whole floors in their early 1,000s connected together, and he liked it very much.

Split air-conditioning system, eight elevators on standby, floor-to-ceiling windows in the south, east and west, the hall downstairs is quite magnificent, and the floor also sends a small garden.

The most important thing is that it is currently empty for several consecutive floors, which is very tempting for Meng Fanqi, who plans to open two companies.

It's a pity that the total price is exactly the same as the amount he has on hand, and it is a single layer.

If this person has money, it is easy to upgrade his consumption.

Meng Fanqi took a closer look at the workstations on this floor, and about 300 people could be arranged in a compact place, which was completely enough in previous years.

Seeing that Meng Fanqi hesitated, Yan Changchun was not very experienced, but he was quite clever.

Hurriedly stepped forward and said, "There are not many companies coming to this place now, and these floors have been empty for a while." Our maximum installment ratio is half, you really want to, but the funds are not open for a while, you can pay 50% of the down payment first, and agree to repay the rest within one or two years, the interest is very low, and you can make up in advance at any time. ”

"Fifty percent down payment, about a thousand." Meng Fanqi thought for a while, it was enough for him to have a maximum of a dozen employees in the initial stage, and the salary expenditure was less than one million a month.

In fact, as long as he survived the first three months, Meng Fanqi's share from the Google advertising system can be said to be endless, and the tens of millions of venue purchase costs are completely trivial.

"It's okay to just buy it." The office buildings here in Caohe have not said that they will rise much, and there will always be two times in a few years.

The company should continue to open, and it is always not a loss to buy.

There are a lot of things such as graphics cards and servers, and it is really tiring to rent a space first, and then you may have to move the whole thing in a few months.

"That's it." Meng Fanqi chose the lowest layer of these rows, dispelling the idea of having to purchase the upgrade space in advance in the future.

Even if the app is made soon, with the rapid expansion, more than 300 workstations in a year are enough.

Besides, his boss will stay here for about two months, and if he really wants to change places in the future, let them worry about it themselves.

It is still necessary to identify the workplace early and recruit people.

Happily signed the contract, Yan Changchun was very happy. This single deed tax is 3% and stamp duty is 0.025%, and his performance commission is not a few.

He has also signed some tens of millions of large orders in the past three years, but there are really not many who have signed so happily.

Contact by phone, look around and compare, and place an order directly, which is called chic!

With its own fine decoration and basic tables and chairs equipment, Yan Changchun carefully introduced many related matters, such as water, electricity and coal, various facilities, etc.

Meng Fanqi quickly signed the order and paid the deposit, but he was a little worried, how could he recruit enough good talents.

Now at this node, it is difficult to recruit socially, and it will be the New Year soon, and I am afraid that no one in the society will want to come in a short time.

Anyone who has worked knows how hard it is, and I am afraid that I can't count on them in a hurry.

Meng Fanqi began to think of several top universities in Shanghai.
