Discussion on equity distribution
Wang Zhengyu sat comfortably on the plane returning to Jiang City, and his mood was very pleasant.
His mood was great, not only because of Huo Guangbo's big sale, directly booking two first-class air tickets, but also because his money-making plan had a good start.
Before boarding the plane, I checked the download volume of the software on my mobile phone for the last time, and it had already broken through 170 million times, with a tendency to break through 200 million, and this was just the download volume of this software in less than one day.
This means that in just one day's work, his company will have nearly 200 million potential customers.
Wang Zhengyu believes that in the future, as long as the charging standard of this software is not too outrageous, these users will definitely be willing to pay for this software. Because once users are accustomed to this intelligent voice-controlled operation method, they will absolutely not re-accustom themselves to the previous mobile phone usage methods. This point can be seen very clearly from Huo Guangbo's experience.
Ever since he bought a Xiaomi phone for this software, the Hong Kong version of Apple 6 that had just been purchased at a high price was directly given to Wang Zhengyu. At this time, this young master who had always looked down on domestic mobile phones was even more treasured by his own Xiaomi like a treasure.
So at this time he was confident about making enough money in the future to upgrade Tian Shu again.
What's more important is that Tiānshū, while transmitting the underlying operating system of Chinese to him, has also packaged and imprinted all the technical principles used behind his back into his brain.
So now he has mastered enough programming skills to upgrade this epoch-making mobile phone software without relying on the heavenly book. Moreover, he is also preparing to use these technologies to develop a voice-controlled smart butler system for PC use. Of course, there is also that one programming software designed for Chinese in his mind, which needs to be named and promoted...
At this time, Wang Zhengyu can be said to be full of confidence, just waiting for his own company to be established before making a big move.
Of course, he did not know that the entire Huaxia IT circle had been stirred up by the software he threw out, and he did not know that he had even been noticed by the Huaxia official, and his identity information had already been placed on the desk of a big boss in the Huaxia Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. So at this time, he could still happily discuss their future company affairs with Ho Guangbo beside him.
"Today, I've downloaded all the necessary forms and materials for setting up a company from the internet. We just need to finalize the location and we can go register the company directly! By the way, what do you plan to name the company?" Huo Guangbo said.
Wang Zhengyu thought for a moment and said, "Let's just call it Tiānshū Technology, what do you think?"
"What's with this crappy name 'Tianshu Technology'?" Ho Guangbo looked at Wang Zhengyu with a weird expression.
Wang Zhengyu smiled but didn't speak, he took this name naturally because the epoch-making technologies he obtained all originated from that self-proclaimed heavenly book intelligent product, however, the heavenly book cannot be exposed to the world, so it can only use this method to help it gain a good reputation.
"Alright, anyway I'm making money from you now, so let's just say Tian Shu Technology is Tian Shu Technology, weird name and all, saves me the trouble of preparing a bunch of names in case they get rejected!" Huo Guangbo was directly defeated by Wang Zhengyu's smile, and muttered.
After finishing, Huo Guangbo suddenly became serious and opened his mouth again in an extremely solemn tone: "There's also a very important thing. Since we're preparing to start a company together, we must seriously discuss the composition of shares!"
Wang Zhengyu looked at the extremely serious face of Huo Guangbo with a puzzled expression and asked, "Why are you so serious? Didn't we agree that our company would be a partnership, with each of us having half of the shares?"
"What you're saying now is too simplistic. Have you thought about what would happen if the company really grows big, scales up, and even prepares to go public? If we two have different opinions on the direction of the company's development, who will be listened to in the end? Chinese partners, you've seen it before! During the startup phase, everyone is friendly, but after growing big, just because of a listing issue, they can fall out and become enemies, ruining years of friendship. Of course, in movies, misunderstandings are resolved in the end, but reality isn't like that! We can't take risks!" Ho Guangbo said with a serious face.
Wang Zhengyu thought for a moment and indeed it was this reason.
Especially now, the problem he encountered is that if he earns enough funds, the first step will definitely not be to continue developing and expanding the company, but rather to get enough electricity to upgrade the heavenly book. This investment method is absolutely incomprehensible to anyone, including Huo Guangbo.
So for this question raised by Huo Guangbo, Wang Zhengyu also attaches great importance to it, but he did not make an absolute statement, instead, he asked back: "Then what do you think we should do?"
Hu Guangbo had obviously thought this through, and as soon as Wang Zhengyu asked the question, he began to give a direct answer: "Actually, when I proposed starting a company together, my idea was that you would provide the technology, I would provide the money, and we would start the company together. We could discuss the shares later. But now that you already have the startup funding, I've already made a profit by inserting myself into this deal. So let's do it like this: I'll cover all the costs of starting the company, and you can just contribute your technology in exchange for 90% of the shares. I'll only take 1%!"
"You only want 10%?" Wang Zhengyu looked at Huo Guangbo in confusion. To be honest, from the moment Huo Guangbo raised this question, Wang Zhengyu knew that Huo Guangbo must have already had a plan in mind, but he did not expect that Huo Guangbo would not only take on all the company's expenses, but also only want 10% of the shares.
After two years of getting along, Wang Zhengyu was very familiar with Huo Guangbo's generous and open-handed personality.
It's just like when he failed to confess, Huo Guangbo paid for the travel agency behind his back and accompanied him to Yunmeng Mountain to ease his heart; When living expenses were urgent, as long as he told Huo Guangbo, the bank card was handed over directly, and he could take whatever amount he wanted. This is also why Wang Zhengyu agreed to share shares with Huo Guangbo after having 200 million.
So upon hearing the current share allocation plan given by Huo Guangbo, Wang Zhengyu felt extremely embarrassed. In his view, he only needed to grasp the company's discourse power and that would be enough, naturally not needing so many shares. Although he knew that relying on the Tian Shu brought him technology, the future gains might be huge beyond imagination, but at that time money was just a number.
He believed that by then, their current friendship might be more important than money.
So Wang Zhengyu shook his head and disagreed: "No way, aren't you afraid of losing your investment? I think we should split it 40-60!"
"Alright, I've thought it through regarding the shares issue. I don't understand technology, but others like Qihoo's CEO do. That software of yours can sell its exclusive rights for 200 million alone, and future earnings won't be less than that. Not to mention the company will continue to develop, so stop arguing with me, or else I'll just stay out of it and you can play by yourself!" Huo Guangbo waved his hand, showing off his big boss demeanor, and made a decision.
Wang Zhengyu thought for a moment, then compromised: "Alright, I'll accept 80%, but I want full control over the company's internal development direction from now on. You can handle external affairs. You must have absolute trust in me, even if I make some investment decisions that you think are unbelievable, you absolutely cannot interfere, okay?"
Huo Guangbo looked at Wang Zhengyu's serious face and asked in confusion, "Listening to you say this, I have a feeling that you're going to invest recklessly now that you've made some money?"
"Will it work or not, stop wasting words!" Wang Zhengyu unexpectedly brought out the usual domineering aura that only Huo Guangbo had, saying harshly.
"Damn it! You're acting like you're the boss!" Ho Guangbo complained, then said, "Alright, alright, I'll listen to you! In this day and age, having skills is everything!"
With the share settled, the atmosphere between them eased, and the two young men no longer intentionally maintained a serious posture, starting to chat casually.
"By the way, I searched online today and found that there is a four-story office building for rent in Donghu High-tech Zone. It's about 3,000 square meters, and the rent is around 40,000 yuan per month. I plan to rent it as our company's daily office space. What do you think?" Wang Zhengyu said.
"You're kidding, right? A three-story office building with 3,000 square meters? Do you want to play so big from the start?" Huo Guangbo asked skeptically.
"You just said I'm not allowed to question your decision and now you're breaking the rules!" Wang Zhengyu laughed.
Wang Zhengyu certainly had his own considerations for choosing such a large office space.
First of all, he had made up his mind to make a big splash and naturally wouldn't be satisfied with casually finding some small place.
Secondly, the technical principles of the underlying operating system include Chinese language programming and a brand new encryption technology. He plans to hire a group of programmers with high salaries after the company is established, teach them Chinese language programming, and lay the foundation for his next step in absorbing gold. After all, relying on one person alone can't finish many tasks.
Finally, the location of Donghu High-tech Zone is large enough. After the book is activated that day, he will start developing the hardware for the three-dimensional operating system, and it will be convenient to rent a factory around at that time.
Of course, he didn't plan to drag all this out with Huo Guangbo for the time being. After all, there were some things that he couldn't explain at the moment.
"Alright, have it your way! Anyway, I've got enough money, so go ahead and do whatever you want!" Huo Guangbo said with a smirk.
"Haha, I knew our boss wasn't short of money!" Wang Zhengyu smiled and then asked with great interest: "I'm saying, boss, you've always refused to tell us what business your family is in. Now that we're going to start a company together, can you just reveal a little bit?"
Huo Guangbo hesitated for a moment, then solemnly said: "I'll tell you, but you mustn't tell anyone else!"
"Don't worry, when have I ever spoken out of turn?" Wang Zhengyu assured.
"My dad's name is Huo Zhengyuan!" Huo Guangbo said calmly, blinking twice.
Wang Zhengyu's eyes widened suddenly, and he hesitated to ask: "Huo Zhengyuan? The Zhengyuan of the Zhengyuan Group?"
