Chapter 324: Exchange sincerity for sincerity
Of course Huang Zhan knows the concepts Li Yan mentioned, and he cannot complete them by himself.
"Technical support." Li Yan's answer was very simple.
We’ve been chatting all day, and there are some things that don’t need to be repeated.
Of course Li Yan knows that Huang Zhan is a person who does not like capital. He also emphasized to Boss Huang that he will not actively avoid capital intervention.
But he himself does not target capital.
"Technical support" certainly does not include everything Li Yan needs. The key point of his sentence is "not for money."
"You are an amazing person among junior high school students. I am curious about something, can you make money?"
"At the moment, you are not good at it, and you have only made one million. ”
“In a personal name? Just the online novels and paintings you mentioned?”
"There are also some bonuses."
Huang Zhan nodded. He won one million at this age, saying that he had no idea about "money" and it didn't make sense.
Only those who have made money say "they don't care about money" are convincing.
The big boss with a net worth of hundreds of billions said that he is "not interested in money", which is probably the truth.
It’s just the truth about his current situation. If you use money to enjoy yourself, one hundred million is enough to make you so drunk that your eyes become dizzy.
Sitting on hundreds of billions and only doing it for money, it’s hard to find the motivation to work.
Of course, this sentence must not apply during his time when he was free.
It is the truth to talk about dreams after having a full meal.
The reason why Li Yanneng was so willful when he wrote "Nangong Boy" was because he didn't have to rely on this book to make a living, or even just rely on this book to become famous.
If you were a full-time author who needed to support your family, you would have stayed up late at night and published updates day and night. You could read whatever you wanted, one dose after another of the powerful medicine called "Shuangdian". After taking the dose, I am afraid that everyone will not be happy enough.
I haven’t made enough money yet, so I’m talking about the ideal of commerce.
Especially at Li Yan's age, there is a lot of pseudo-idealism.
Essentially, it’s the second grade.
Thinking of money as dirt, saying that he doesn’t care about money and only seeking the realization of his ideals, he fell to his knees after being slapped by society.
It smells so damn rich.
Moreover, in fact, money is often indispensable on the way to realizing your ideals.
“Having made one million, you should know the importance of money.” Huang Zhan said.
“When I earned the first few thousand yuan, I took two good friends out to buy things and eat, just to imprint that sense of satisfaction in my heart.” After chatting for a day, Li Yan said to Huang Zhan gained a lot of trust, "It gave me a sense of balance in my heart."
"Compared with the satisfaction of making money?" Huang Zhan laughed a few times, "But having thousands of dollars, millions, tens of millions... …They are all different. The amount of money I earn is already in the hundreds of millions.”
“What are your usual money-burning hobbies?”
"When listening to music, I spent a lot of money on music equipment and equipment. I would even modify the house just to make the sound good enough. I bought a villa in Xinqiao District, then demolished it and rebuilt it according to my own needs. "
"Is it worth 100 million?"
Huang Zhan shook his head, "Not really."
"I have made one million now, and I am planning to buy it in New Taipei. But I still felt that the few thousand dollars at the beginning were the happiest. That was the first time I could spend money freely, and my needs at that time were not beyond the reach of a few thousand dollars.”
Huang Zhan shrugged. He had worked as a prostitute after dropping out of high school. He was in a completely different world from this boy who earned one million in his second year of junior high school. He didn't know how to evaluate it.
"I'm not very materialistic." Li Yan said seriously, "I'm only afraid of one thing, which is to die without value and meaning. For me personally, making so much money is of no use.
< br>“But I make as much as I need to change the world. "
Huang Zhan stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window. He didn't say anything for a long time.
Li Yan didn't say anything either. She lay on the sofa with her eyes closed and rested.
I talked about it today. One day, I was a little tired.
"Li Yan, what do you think of Chuangzu, a company...?"
"I don't know much about it, but I'm just curious. Everyone says that Chuangzu is a family business, right?"
"If arranging a few relatives into the company can be considered a family business..." Huang Zhan looked at the busy traffic outside the window and shook his head, "There are no relatives in the senior management, but there are a few friends."
"Maybe it's more appropriate to say it's a personal business?" Li Yan's words suddenly hit Huang Zhan.
“Why do you say that?” Boss Huang’s hand holding the water glass stopped in the air.
"It is impossible for any large company to despise management work. You don't like it. I understand. As long as the founders give sufficient power to the senior management responsible for daily management, at least on the surface there should be a person other than you to talk about it."
Huang Zhan just drinks water.
“Product-only theory, if this statement wants to become the working principle of the whole company, it can only be said by the ‘soul man’.” Li Yan also stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, “You are the ‘soul man’ ', What supports the operation of Chuangzu is your personal charm. Everyone believes that what you say is right, and you hold all the power in your own hands. "
"Guess? "
“It’s a guess.” Li Yan smiled, “I don’t have any basis for it. I’ll just say whatever comes to mind.”
"It's quite tiring." Huang Zhan breathed a long sigh of relief, "It can be considered an escape. I just hope that everyone can do what I want."
"We are all living people." Li Yan has no intention of discussing this issue in depth and will stop at this point.
“Do you want to be the boss?” Huang Zhan asked again.
“It depends on how you define it.” Li Yan answered immediately because he had thought about this question many times. “To be honest, I don’t actually like management. Like you, I always hope Everyone does what I want.”
“But you can also recognize the objective fact that people are independent individuals.”
Because I know a little bit about psychology and sociology.
“I also want to be the soul person, the kind of soul person who will collapse if the company leaves me.”
“Companies have different stages of development, and no one can always be the indispensable part of a company. "There is no such thing as a victorious general."
"It doesn't matter if I leave the company." Li Yan smiled, "I heard. I told you the story of your first company, from technical worker to general manager. Under your leadership, the company's MP3 business grew rapidly, but in the end you chose to leave because of your management concepts and you couldn't stand up to the shareholders. ”
“ It was before the founding of the clan.”
Li Yan didn't say anything else. If he kept talking, he would tell the biggest difference between him and Huang Zhan.
Huang Zhan is unwilling to participate in management, partly because of his personality, and partly because he doesn’t understand.
No matter if you don’t want to learn or for whatever reason, if you don’t understand, you just don’t understand.
And Li Yan knows everything.
Li Yan's company can even make all decisions by him.
"Do you have anything to ask me?" Huang Zhan walked back to the chair and sat down upright.
Li Yan didn't want to ask at first. As long as Boss Huang agreed to him, the two parties could directly carry out follow-up work.
It's not like he hasn't told Huang Zhan about the outrageous time limit of three months, but because it was more timely to explain "making a concept machine", Huang Zhan was interrupted before his shocked expression could appear.
Having developed Chuangzu w8 himself, Huang Zhan’s familiarity with the entire process is naturally far beyond that of He Zixiang and others. Seeing Huang Zhan’s shocked expression retracted, Li Yan felt a lot more at ease.
At least we can have a finished product and not end up with an empty cannon.
Holding a prototype in my hand, it is much better than just reading the PPT.
But no matter what, time is still tight. It would be nice to use the time for small talk to do research.
He still has to discuss specific ideas with Huang Zhan.
But we have been chatting for a day now... He is indeed more interested in Huang Zhan, so why not take the opportunity to ask Wang Zhan a question. "What do you think of Boss Joe from Pineapple Company?"
For Huang Zhan, it was unexpected and reasonable.
Many people want to ask this question, and he knows it.
How many have he seen on the forum.
But in reality, because he refused to be interviewed, all he could see were Chuangzu employees and Chuangzu's partners. It was somewhat embarrassing to ask this question face to face. Everyone maintained a tacit understanding of being curious but not asking.
Lao Qiao is an idol in the mobile phone circle and even the electronic product circle around the world.
There is no other reason. Whoever can be a trendsetter or even a leader in this circle has godhood.
Huang Zhan cannot deny the influence of Lao Qiao on him.
Develop MP3, give up MP3, develop smartphones... At every node, there is always the shadow of Pineapple Company releasing new products.
The shock brought to him by the pineapple mobile phone generation is deeply buried in his heart.
From then on, he had the idea that smartphones were the future, so he decisively gave up MP3.
Chuangzu w8 started from scratch, which is somewhat competitive, but it did refer to many characteristics of pineapple mobile phones.
Why the status of pioneers is unshakable, because latecomers cannot prove whether they can move forward without taking the path opened by their predecessors.
At least Huang Zhan himself failed to make a full-screen display, nor did he make the menu return button that was later used on Robert's phone, but instead made a home button.
Huang Zhan once thought that Lao Qiao was very similar to him. They both had paranoid qualities and were both fanatics in product development.
He was called "Chinese Old Qiao" by the media, but he said that he wanted to be "the founder of the world."
To him, Lao Qiao was a senior who had given him a lot of inspiration, a strong man who wanted to challenge him, and also the... enemy who killed him with the appearance patent.
For an idealist like Huang Zhan, who can share mobile phone research and development ideas with others without reservation, the inspiring experience of his predecessors can provide future generations with learning, which can be regarded as further shining.
But Lao Qiao obviously approached it from another angle: Just say whether you made a lot of money.
Refer to my eating my market share, never allowed.
He doesn’t want to see a hundred flowers bloom, he just wants to stand out.
There have been too many discussions about whether it was copied or not, how to count it, and what happened if it was copied. Naturally, Li Yan was not here to discuss this with the parties involved.
He himself has no inclination. In the face of interests, everyone has their own considerations. It is just a question of where to sit.
You can say that intellectual property rights should be protected, and those who have copied them should be recognized as thieves who steal other people's ideas; you can also say that a small dot placed under a mobile phone counts as a ball, but others have changed it to a square one. That's enough respect. It's purely a way to suppress competitors. You're a coward without any structure.
You can even scold both sides at the same time to get the pleasure of "I am better than them both".
"I feel a little unhappy." Huang Zhan's answer was very simple.
It's pretty good, and it doesn't give any attitude that sounds high-minded or politically correct.
Li Yan values sincerity and hopes others will be sincere to him.
The product that I worked so hard on has been rejected by you for a design patent. Regardless of whether it is right or wrong, you should go to hell.
“When I received this letter, I was still thinking that Pineapple Company had better not learn my current unlocking method. If I do, I will definitely kill him.” Huang Zhan smiled bitterly, “What a pity. I suddenly discovered that the 'unlocking method' thing can't be patented yet. The key is that if the W8 is forced to stop production, the founding family will be seriously damaged, even if it is released as soon as possible as everyone said..."
"The one who will pay the bill will only be the w9 generation, which should be regarded as a kind of compensation for w8. If a breakthrough cannot be achieved, the life cycle will be almost over." Li Yan took over.
Huang Zhan looked at Li Yan for a long time, his eyes gradually changing from doubtful to clear.
Why did he treat him as a junior high school student? When they all talk as equals, their identities no longer matter.
“And when the time comes, the design will be a defensive weapon. This cannot be touched or that cannot be changed. All are innovated for the sake of being different. I will not approve of the things I make.”
“So we will do a comprehensive job. "Li Yan showed a confident smile, "This time we are faster than Pineapple, let me see who can learn from who? Maybe they are still holding on to their home button."
"Concept. Opportunity?" Huang Zhan said these three words without confidence.
"As long as the concept is ruthless enough, there is nothing to be afraid of. You are one of the few qualified to evaluate ruthlessness, how about it?"
"Of course it is ruthless. It may not be difficult to come up with one. If you can come up with one, it will be very easy." Amazing.”
Now that we’ve talked about this, we can’t go back and say we won’t cooperate, right?
Li Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"How are you sure that we will be faster than pineapple? The cycle of their new product is already very long." Huang Zhan suddenly asked, "And I have always wanted to ask, why is it June?"
Because I remembered something about the future.
The most fearful thing is this kind of problem.
Even though he had expected it, Li Yan still hesitated for a while when he was actually asked.
This hesitation seemed extremely abrupt on Li Yan, who had been answering questions fluently all day long.
So Huang Zhan waved his hand and said, "Forget it, just think of it as intuition."
Li Yan hesitated and nodded in response.
"You are a genius, you always have some special inspiration." Huang Zhan sank into the sofa.
"There is a natural sense of urgency. If possible, of course I would be more satisfied if I could make it tomorrow."
"Let's talk about it," Huang Zhang still couldn't see the slightest hint of fatigue. , "What's the progress of those things you mentioned? To be more specific, I see you even brought a notebook here."
"That's what you meant."
It's amazing when we talk about this. Li Yan's preparation exceeded Huang Zhan's expectations, and the resources Huang Zhan could provide also surprised Li Yan.
When Huang Zhan saw the file names "Are you hungry for half a year's data" and "Real-time calculation record of order allocation", his eyes were shining.
The long conversation lasted all night, and the two of them only yawned at about two o'clock in the morning.
In order to prevent the sun from rising to remind him that he had stayed up all night, Huang Zhan turned on all the lights in the office and drew the curtains tightly.
After everything was negotiated and Huang Zhan even made the itinerary for more than a month, the two finally ended the conversation with a solemn handshake.
Huang Zhan was originally going to send Li Yan back to the dormitory, but Li Yan said it was better to go to bed early after staying up all night and declined Boss Huang's kindness.
The two of them walked to the door of the Founding Building. The huge clock showed that it was already half past eight in the morning.
“I just bought breakfast and went back.”
“Li Yan,” Huang Zhan stopped him again, “I once had a very happy conversation with someone. I even wanted him to be the CEO of Chuangzu, but he only wanted to invest in it, so in the end it didn’t work out. I still want to ask a question first, which company does the concept phone you finally release belong to?”
"Are we in a cooperative relationship, Mr. Huang?" Li Yan replied instantly. It seemed that he had also thought about this issue.
"Yes."
"You think so too, that's no problem. I told you all my thoughts. This is my sincerity. I can't give you anything materially now except that one Anything other than a million. Mr. Huang, the technical support Chuangzu gave me is equivalent to an investment. If the research and development fails, you will get my concept but lose some money and time. If the research and development is successful, we will earn reputation together. After making money, I will not give any less to my collaborators."
"That's not what I want to say..."
"It belongs to me." Li Yan. Said, "It's best to explain this kind of issue clearly, but I hope we can have a tacit understanding."
Huang Zhan's expression was a bit complicated.
"Chuangzu is currently the largest partner, but this phone will not be Chuangzu's product." Li Yan emphasized.
“Don’t you need a brand?”
“I am a brand myself.” Li Yan waved her hand, “Let’s go now, Mr. Huang. I hope that everything we talked about last night was not on the phone. It's called "Creating a Family"
Then the boy carried the computer and walked out.
Huang Zhan stood in the lobby, ignoring the front desk who brought mineral water. After a long time, he sighed and smiled to himself.
