Chapter 214 Manpower Problem
“She has set her sights on real estate.”
Qin Shaoyan was a little surprised when he received Su Ran’s call at night.
I have to say that Feng Yun is really smart. Not only did he quickly understand the routine, but he also learned and applied it.
"How is it? Are there any problems?" Su Ran was a little nervous and asked softly.
"There's nothing wrong with the house." Qin Shaoyan said with a smile, "But it's hard to say whether this is a blessing or a curse."
After all, the most suitable one for this routine is real estate.
It’s just that house prices will skyrocket in the future, and it’s hard to say later.
If house prices fall, it will be insolvent.
If the bosses find that the value of the house far exceeds the value of the loan, they will try their best to get it back.
There are many cases of bosses cheating mindless mistresses, and there are also many cases where little fairies earn gold coins, just to see who has a higher rank.
It’s just that there will be legal disputes involved, and the loan lender may be involved.
Qin Shaoyan thought for a while, "If you want performance, don't worry, I will introduce you to a group of high-quality customers, including housing loans and real estate mortgage loans."
"That manager Feng of yours Just let her figure it out, don’t get involved.” Su Ran agreed softly, “Go to bed early.”
Qin Shaoyan hung up the phone and looked at Zhang Pingyi and Chen Guangxia who were discussing technical issues.
"How are the preparations for the video website going now?"
The two ended their discussion and looked at Qin Shaoyan together.
Chen Guangxia thought for a while and replied: "The technical solution has been determined. It is technically difficult, but it is easy to solve. Now we lack an experienced R&D team."
"If we start from What about the campus network transfer?" Qin Shaoyan asked.
"Now the campus network is also short of people." Chen Guangxia shook his head, "We can't always divert the technical strength of the campus network."
Zhang Pingyi nodded in agreement, "After all, the campus network is our foundation, we can't just rely on it." The place sucks blood. If that doesn’t work, let’s recruit a group of new people.”
“Okay.” Qin Shaoyan nodded, “You can figure it out yourself. Give money to others if you want.”< br>
“I have only one condition: to make the project beautiful and give investors a satisfactory explanation.”
“Don’t worry, Mr. Qin.” Chen Guangxia nodded vigorously, full of enthusiasm expressed his position.
"I feel at ease when Senior Brother Chen is here." Qin Shaoyan looked at Chen Guangxia with a smile, "Has Senior Brother Chen bought a house?"
"Uh, not yet." Chen Guangxia was stunned for a moment, and then said with some embarrassment, "I don't have that much money on hand, so I'm considering a loan."
"Senior Brother Chen is already a CTO after all. What can we do if we don't have a house?" Qin Shaoyan waved his hand, "The company will pay for Brother Chen to buy a house. "
"Huh?" Chen Guangxia stood up excitedly and became incoherent for a moment, "This...this..."
"Senior Brother Chen is working hard for the company. Don’t you have to enjoy it now?” Qin Shaoyan decided on the spot, “That’s it.”
"Work hard. When the company is listed, I will equip Brother Chen with a good car."
"Thank you, Mr. Qin!" Chen Guangxia's face turned red and his tone was choked.
Qin Shaoyan said boldly, "In addition, Zhang Tianshi and Senior Brother Chen will discuss and make a list of key employees of the campus network."
"After the New Year, let's find a new building. , help them pay the down payment as a reward from the company.”
“In addition, we have to buy a batch of houses and rent them to company employees at a low price, which is considered as a benefit, and then we can get a commuter bus. Convenient for getting off work.”
Chen Guangxia gave a thumbs up, "Mr. Qin is such a rare good boss."
Zhang Pingyi nodded in agreement, "Mr. Qin is indeed a good boss."
"Let's work together. , make the company bigger and stronger." Qin Shaoyan said happily, "I will go to Nasdaq to ring the bell in 2006. Then I will buy myself a piece of land and build a building."
"Make it bigger. Be strong!”
……
Qin Shaoyan was cheering for his men here, and Xiong Xiaoge was also actively communicating with them over there.
Several venture capital investors have come together and are working on a project report on a video website.
Zheng Nan from Sequoia glanced at it and handed the report to his deputy. He pondered for two seconds and asked tentatively: "Is Mr. Xiong planning to invest in this project?"
Xiong Xiaoge He did not express his position, but asked: "Mr. Zheng, what do you think of this project?"
"Video website." Zheng Nan frowned, "This is indeed a brand new Internet type, and the United States has just Rise, YouTube is developing very fast. I have read the market analysis report in the United States, and they are still very optimistic about YouTube’s prospects.”
"But YouTube is a new thing after all, and the market response remains to be seen. We don't have to rush to the end, let's wait and see."
Xu Xin of Capital Today also echoed: "Yes, Mr. Xiong, now The development direction and market of the video website are unclear.”
“I heard that YouTube has been involved in a copyright lawsuit in the United States. This matter must be cautious. If you invest, it will be very risky.”
“We are all venture capital investors.” Xiong Xiaoge said with a serious face, “Venture capital investment means investing with risks, but the risks also mean that the returns are also large.”
“ I don’t know the specific development of the video website project, but I am very optimistic about this project.”
"Why?" Xu Xin asked in surprise.
"Because Qin Shaoyan also wants to start a video website." Xiong Xiaoge said unhurriedly, "He started YouTube. It has become a popular website not only in the United States, but also in Europe."< br>
“It’s impossible for him to create such a thing for no reason, it must have his purpose.”
“I went to see him a few days ago, tested him, and found that he was indeed there. Prepare to build a domestic video website.”
“Zhang Pingyi, the CTO of Campus Network, went to the United States with him, and Zhang Pingyi also participated in YouTube. His intention is obvious.”
"Use the American market to verify the new type of video website, and then transplant it to China."
Zheng Nan frowned and thought for a moment, then nodded slowly, "This is indeed Qin Shaoyan's style."
< br>"Mr. Xiong, has Qin Shaoyan told you about the development direction and future prospects of the video website?"
"He didn't say anything specific." Xiong Xiaoge pondered for a moment, "He just said it was to improve social networking. The ecological layout of the platform is not detailed.”
Zheng Nan was a little surprised, “What is his plan?”
"I just want to secretly build a video website, and then take the opportunity to raise the valuation." Xiong Xiaoge sneered, "It's the same old routine."
Zheng Nan nodded, this is indeed Qin Shaoyan's style.
Just give you a big deal without saying a word, and then try to raise the price for you, making the venture capital investors love and hate you.
Xu Xin from Capital Today flipped through the market research report and said with a frown: "It's not impossible to invest in this video website, but now Qin Shaoyan has nothing, and he can't even produce a PPT. Are we going to invest?”
“We won’t know what the price will be when he has something.” Xiong Xiaoge said seriously, “Finalize the investment intention while he doesn’t have anything, or wait for him. If you really bring out the video website, he dares to ask you for one billion.”
Zheng Nan nodded again, which was also Qin Shaoyan's style.
"The valuation is US$12 million. If we invest a few dollars, it won't be much money." Xiong Xiaoge said directly, "It's just a small project of one to two million US dollars. What do you think?" Zheng Nan He said simply, "Then I'll vote a little bit too."
Xu Xin hesitated for a moment, "Then I'll take a look too, just in time to interact with Qin Shaoyan more."
Dachen Venture Capital, which had been discussing next to them, saw the three companies’ statements and immediately expressed its intention to follow up.
Xiong Xiaoge is right, it is indeed a small project, and if it is shared among several companies, it will not cost much.
Peng Xiaolin from Lenovo Investment suddenly said, "Speaking of video websites, I received a project a while ago. One of my VPs was responsible for it, and it was also a video website."
Xiong Xiaoge He immediately showed an interested look, "Oh, Mr. Peng has also started to pay attention to video websites a long time ago."
"I didn't expect that the domestic Internet responded so quickly. It didn't take long for YouTube in the United States to go online. There are people working on the same project here."
"I just thought the project was interesting, so I paid attention to it," Peng Xiaolin said with a smile.
In fact, he had forgotten about this project a long time ago. Today, when Xiong Xiaoge talked about the video website, he remembered that he seemed to have seen something similar.
It’s just that he didn’t remember the details. He only remembered that it was a video website.
Xiong Xiaoge asked, "Is Mr. Peng interested in investing together?"
"Well." Peng Xiaolin pondered for a few seconds, "Let's see and then talk."
……
the next day.
Xiong Xiaoge went directly to Qin Shaoyan's door and asked immediately: "How are the preparations for the video website going?"
"We are still recruiting people." Qin Shaoyan replied unhurriedly, "The technical solution is already available, all that's left is to find someone to build the website."
"Hurry up then." Xiong Xiaoge asked directly, "Can it be online before the end of the year?"
Qin Shaoyan was a little surprised, "Mr. Xiong, you are too hasty."
"I have contacted several venture capital investors here to invest in you." Xiong Xiaoge said, "The funds have been prepared for you, just waiting for your website to go online."
"Eh?! "Qin Shaoyan was really shocked, "Mr. Xiong, you are moving too fast. Who are they?"
"IDG, Sequoia, Today Capital, Dachen Venture Capital, Lenovo are still there. Think about it." Xiong Xiaoge reached out and gestured, "How about a valuation of US$12 million?"
"A valuation of US$12 million is a bit low." Qin Shaoyan pretended to think about it. How about just putting together a total of 25 million US dollars?"
"..." Xiong Xiaoge took a deep breath, "Then you must put the project online before the end of the year."
"No problem." Qin Shaoyan nodded happily and agreed.
“But there are too many of you, it’s best not to exceed four families.”
Xiong Xiaoge was a little confused, “Why?”
“I’m afraid that there will be too many people. It's messed up." Qin Shaoyan said casually, "It's better to keep it simple."
"Okay, the four of us will vote." Xiong Xiaoge decided readily, "But the website must be launched before the end of the year. You have to give me a guarantee.”
"Go online before New Year's Day." Qin Shaoyan said immediately, "I can sign a betting agreement."
After Xiong Xiaoge got Qin Shaoyan's promise, he left with satisfaction, leaving Qin Shaoyan alone in deep thought.
Qin Shaoyan quickly called Zhang Pingyi and Chen Guangxia over, and said straight to the point: "Mr. Xiong urged us to go online before New Year's Day."
"Huh?!" Zhang Pingyi and Chen Guangxia were immediately stunned.
"Mr. Qin, are you serious?" Zhang Pingyi was stunned for a long time before coming back to his senses, "Will it be online before New Year's Day?"
"Yes." Qin Shaoyan said seriously, "This time point has been decided. There is no need to discuss it. Let's talk about what the main difficulties are now?"
Chen Guangxia said directly: "We are very short of people now. , We can’t finish even if we work overtime until we vomit blood.”
“The main thing is that we are short of people.” Zhang Pingyi also said, “It’s too late to recruit people. There are other tasks to be done on the campus network. The international summer camp audition will take a lot of effort, don't expect to recruit them."
"I will take care of the people's affairs for you." Qin Shaoyan looked at the two of them seriously, "If the people are in place. , can you guarantee that the website will be launched on time?"
"No problem," Zhang Pingyi said decisively, "As long as the people are in place, it will be done for you within a month."
"Okay, it's settled." Qin Shaoyan took out his cell phone from his pocket and called the number where Edward was found.
"Edward, how's the progress going there?"
"It's going well. Now you have to do something for me."
......
In a cafe in Zhongguancun.
Each new Internet entrepreneur uses a jerky expression and works hard to introduce his or her project to investors.
While guiltily exaggerating the prospects and data of his website, he carefully discussed valuation and share dilution plans.
I don’t know how many projects are being discussed in this cafe every day, and I don’t know how many projects have been negotiated.
In the tide of Internet entrepreneurship, coffee shops have become a holy place for entrepreneurs.
Every Internet entrepreneurial myth is born here.
Today, the game between entrepreneurs and investors is still going on in the corner.
Wang Wei squeezed the coffee hard, weighing and struggling in his heart.
Edward, who was sitting opposite him, was drinking coffee with a relaxed look on his face and said unhurriedly: "King, how are you thinking about it?"
"As long as you are willing to nod, The first payment was received immediately."
Wang Wei frowned and said, "I have no objection to the valuation, but your exclusivity clause is a bit off."
"Wang." Edward interrupted Wang Wei, "The exclusivity clause is a standard contract and cannot be changed."
Wang Wei was a little worried, "But in this case, our first round of financing You can no longer accept investment from other people, right?"
"I also want to protect the interests of investors," Edward said with a smile.
"Sorry, I need to think about it again." Wang Wei put down the coffee in his hand, "I want to discuss it with the rest of the team."
"It's okay." Edward said generously He understood, "But let me remind you, you don't have much time."
"I understand." Wang Wei nodded.
"Don't be so nervous." Edward suddenly laughed, "I'm going to treat you tonight and call all your team members over. Let's all eat together and chat while eating."
" This..." Wang Wei hesitated.
"There is a saying in China that there is no justice in business." Edward said generously, "Even if we can't negotiate investment, we can still be considered friends and let's have a meal together."
"Okay. ." Wang Wei nodded in agreement.
