Chapter 345 I want money

When he woke up, good news and bad news were pressed on Li Yan’s head.

The good news is that the press conference held by Pineapple Company boss Joe really reminded everyone of his concept phone and started the expected fermentation.

The bad news is that the fermentation was a little too vigorous.

He woke up at eight o'clock in the morning. When he turned on his mobile phone, there were already more than twenty missed calls. Huang Zhan called several, and there was even a call from Zuo Yuming.

Some digital media that paid attention to the Pineapple Phone 4 launch conference wrote articles all night long and began to compare Li Yan's semi-finished concept phone with Pineapple Phone 4 "who can really change the world."

Obviously, the sense of urgency that Li Yan expected everyone to have due to the release of the fourth generation of Pineapple Phone did appear, but the intensity was beyond his imagination.

He thought that this kind of contrast would only appear after a wave of fermentation, but he didn't expect that his face would be confused when he came up.

In any case, Pineapple Phone 4 is a mature commercial product. Although some concepts are not as good as Li Yan’s current semi-finished products, in most industries, “everyone will think about it, the key depends on who can make it” .

There is a wall between science fiction and semi-finished products, and between semi-finished products and commercial finished products.

You can buy the Pineapple Phone 4, which can make calls and connect to the Internet. All functions can be experienced directly.

This is something Li Yan can’t even catch up with.

However, the biggest disadvantage of the Pineapple phone is that it is an American product.

Li Yan correctly judged the self-esteem and competitiveness of the Chinese people.

But I also underestimated how strong the energy everyone was holding back in 2010, an era that placed great emphasis on national self-confidence.

The United States has become accustomed to producing powerful technological products.

Even if I feel a little unwilling to "Why can't we do it?", I don't know where to say it, and I feel like an angry youth when I complain too much.

But the emergence of Li Yan allowed them to find an outlet.

Many people who had not paid attention to Li Yan's press conference - or should be said to be the concept presentation - came to pay attention to it through the press release of Pineapple Phone 4, and they immediately raised their expectations.

Waiting for Li Yan’s finished product to kill Pineapple Phone 4.

"This time, China is in the lead!"

This kind of statement is of course dangerous and can easily arouse everyone's rebellious psychology.

So the discussion exploded. The conflicting point started from "Does the semi-finished mobile phone compare with the finished product?" gradually turned into the cliché "Is the genius boy a gimmick?"

As soon as Li Yan was thinking about how to fight these idiots back, he found that the topic changed again:

"Is it so difficult to have confidence in China?"

Damn it, how did you get to this height?

Then the discussion posts about him changed from technical exchanges to hating each other.

To say a few words about the pineapple mobile phone is to be a traitor, to say that Li Yan is awesome is to say that he is consuming patriotic sentiments.

It seemed that Li Yan was frightened. Even those who supported him were too high. They were just putting him on the fire.

He decided not to read the messy reports on the Internet and got up silently and washed his face.

I originally thought about dialing back the missed calls one by one, but then I thought about it and put down the phone.

It’s tiring to call back. If they are really sincere, just give them another call.

As soon as I finished thinking about it, Huang Zhan called.

Mr. Huang is so tireless.

"Li Yan? Are you awake?"

"I woke up and just finished washing up."

"Shall I pick you up and come to the Clan for an interview?"

"No problem."

"Then get off. Floor."

"Huh?"

"I'm right at the door."

Hiss... I'm a little scared of being too positive.

The sleeping roommates missed the opportunity to communicate with the person involved immediately. When Chen Fan got up and saw the news on the homepage of the portal website, "Can the genius boy fight against the American technology giants?" I couldn't help shouting "fuck".

Chuangzu Building is already very familiar to Li Yan. He followed Huang Zhan on the familiar road to the office. The difference was that this time a beautiful woman followed him the whole way, carrying bags and water for Li Yan. The person who opened the door made him a little uncomfortable.

"Your boss is on the other side." He also made a special joke.

Huang Zhan just laughed, he looked very happy.

The two sat down, and Huang Zhan actively made tea for Li Yan.

"Mr. Huang, I'm a little panicked by you..."

"Don't worry, I'm not here to talk to you about joining the Founding Clan or anything like that." Huang Zhan waved his hand.

"Then Mr. Huang is..."

Li Yan really thought that this was Huang Zhan's purpose.

“You only regard me as a businessman?” Huang Zhan smiled, “I stayed in the product department last night, studying the prototype you made, and suddenly I heard Fang Shu say that Pineapple Company held a press conference... I personally don’t really pay much attention to these things, and then I watched the live broadcast.”

He suddenly snapped his fingers—Mr. Huang was a bit too playful today, “To be honest, you gave me this concept phone. The excitement reached its peak after the release of Pineapple 4. "Because conceptually, I am more futuristic than him," Li Yan said plainly, "In this respect, I am the leader. "

Huang Zhan sighed, "I said something extraordinary, but I think so too."

"You are a relatively close follower and know the conditions under which this mobile phone was born." Li Yan took a sip of tea, remembered that she hadn't had breakfast, and put it back.

The beautiful woman next to her immediately turned and left.

“So I am more excited than anyone else. If there are enough resources to support it, the finished product of Jiaolong mobile phone—even just a usable finished product, will be enough to make huge waves in this industry.”

“I heard that Mr. Huang wants to invest in me?”

“Of course I will support you.” Huang Zhan nodded, “It’s not just financial support.”

The beautiful woman came back with another plate of pastries and bread, and placed it next to Li Yan.

"So, what is the price?"

"There is no price. If you make money, just give me a share as normal."

Li Yan blinked. , picked up a piece of pastry and put it in his mouth, and then drank the hot tea that Huang Zhan had just changed.

“I thought you would mention something like ‘joint release of the founders’.”

In fact, it's not impossible to give, as long as this phone is not turned into some kind of Chuangzu w9w10, Li Yan did not want to only give monetary rewards to Chuangzu who provided such support in the early days.

For the founders, it is probably a kind of cool revenge to have products related to themselves that can directly explode the pineapple phone.

“No, no, no,” Huang Zhan waved his hands repeatedly, “Li Yan, in my eyes, you have nothing to do with your status as a junior high school student or student. You are the leader in this industry. Even Pineapple Joe's confident 'baby' doesn't look as stunning as you. If this phone wants to continue to amaze until it is officially unveiled, you must be the soul."

Li Yan was a little moved. ...That's weird.

This kind of words that sounded like a confidant should have moved him, but the timing was wrong. It should be said that he missed it.

Lao Huang, you will know the level of this concept phone after the press conference. Why don't you show your sincerity at that time? Will you know how good I am after comparing it with foreign products?

Of course, Li Yan is still grateful to Huang Zhan for his sincere support - at least it is rare among businessmen - but one code after another, seeing Huang Zhan talking now makes him a little touched. , Li Yan didn't really want to respond to this emotion.

“What I said on stage was not just for the occasion. Making money with this mobile phone is secondary, and changing the world is the primary purpose. But these words themselves are in vain. If they really can change the world, they probably won’t. That’s a lot of money.” Li Yan ate another piece of bread.

“You are really amazing. It’s only two days away. If Pineapple Joe’s mobile phone was released first and everyone had the idea of ​​​​leading the world, then if you released a half-finished product, there would be no discussion at all. degree.”

There was no way to reply to this, so Li Yan could only vaguely say, "So there's no harm in doing it faster."

“I never understood why you were in such a hurry to make it, but now that I think about it, it’s a bit incredible. They didn’t announce the press conference. You couldn’t have known that they were going to release a new phone a few months in advance, right? ”

Hey, don’t ask, you are about to get to the core of the problem.

"I said before that this year is a year of melee. Everyone is holding back their energy to seize the blue ocean. Time is more precious than anything else."

Huang Zhan sighed and ignored the problem. However, "I didn't sleep all night last night. In fact, Director Zuo called me. He said that the New Taipei City Government would take the lead in holding a meeting to talk about policy support and investment."
< br>

Yo? This is big news, but Li Yan thought that Linjiang Province would take the lead. It seems that there is no official result. No matter how much he hopes for it, he will still be more restrained in doing things.

In addition, Li Yan has already established a company in his father's name, so it seems unlikely that he will be incorporated, so it is normal to be cautious.

"Is he looking for you to invest for me?" Li Yan asked.

"There is no need for him to come looking for it," Huang Zhan laughed, "But Li Yan, have you ever thought about this in detail?"

Li Yan's expression suddenly changed. dignified.

He was thinking about it, of course he was thinking about it, he was always thinking about it.

Even if it seems to be going well now, the results of semi-finished mobile phones are amazing, academicians and provincial platforms, the publicity effect is explosive...

These things are complementary to each other. The more the public expects, the more the government pays attention to it. The easier it is to mobilize resources, and the more the word "genius boy" is mentioned, the more secure Li Yan's dominance will be.

But in the final analysis, these are all false, and he has not yet implemented the most real thing - money.

All said and done, Li Yan still needs to make a complete dragon mobile phone by himself. If someone else picks the cake for him, he will really be reborn and be ashamed of himself.

If someone else is reborn or takes a system and develops it to a million words, others will bow down to him.

Every big boss would have to fight when he sees him.

I can do something big with the rebirth system, but I am still constrained by funds. I really lost this fucking author.

First of all, he cannot expect that the academicians or the government who endorse his platform can allocate funds for the research and development of mobile phones and even the funds for the later production of mobile phones.

Unless he directly joins some research institute or state-owned enterprise, this thing will directly become a national brand product after it is made.

But even if he wanted to take this path, I'm afraid it wouldn't be easy.

Not to mention that he doesn’t want to leave at all...

Secondly, although he believes that he now has enough appeal to raise enough start-up funds and R&D funds, he will take the staged results to ask for them in the future. Investment is absolutely fine too.

But this way there will be more dads.

We can’t expect everyone to think the same way as Huang Zhan. Friends and businesses are starting to spend money to set the pace on Weibo.

Li Yan is not going to slowly win over individual talented people and then use the company's promising shares to attract them to join, because his purpose is not to make a fortune by eating a few bites of cake with a domestic mobile phone under the influence of Pineapple Phone 4. He wants to To be a leader requires the intervention of more mature technologies and resources.

A lot has been achieved so far, but...

Li Yan's dominant position and funds still seem to be a piece of cake.

You can’t have it both ways.

Unless a rich man comes out, invests a lot of money and then says that if Li Yan succeeds, he will be given dividends.

Find it in your dreams.

Li Yan answered Huang Zhan's question with a raised eyebrow.

And keeping thinking about this issue, I participated in the "Smartphone R&D Project Promotion Coordination Meeting" organized by the New Taipei City Government.

The name does not look very formal, indicating that everyone is not willing to treat it as a formal meeting.

But the number of attendees was very high. The host was the deputy mayor of New Taipei City. Several people from the municipal party committee office, as well as several directors and deputy directors from New Taipei City's science and technology and investment promotion-related units came.

There are also Director Zuo who organizes the bureau, Academician Ni who is a technology guru, and several business representatives from the Linjiang technology industry.

Li Yan originally planned to bring her father, the CEO of the nominal "Future Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd." to the meeting, but Li Chun firmly refused.

He said that when he saw the captain of the district industrial and commercial bureau law enforcement team in a third-tier small city, he was very nervous. Going to such an occasion was purely to cause trouble for Li Yan.

So the fifteen-year-old boy Li Yan and Shi Shiran sat on the left side of the conference round table - he was the only one.

On the right side of the round table were two rows of bosses.

Reporting to the boss is not such a grand affair.

The big bosses on the opposite side were still a little surprised, including Director Zuo. Even if there were no big bosses behind the scenes, they thought that Li Yan would bring his team and even "supporters" to the meeting.

Come here alone... There is no need to pretend to be cool.

It shows that this mobile phone is really controlled by him.

Actually, Li Yan has never seen such a scene in his previous life, but he is indeed very relaxed now.

You came to me on your own initiative, not because I was asking for your help.

Li Yan absolutely cannot show pressure on funds. Once this signal is caught by the business representative on the opposite side, it will be troublesome.

Today’s attitude is focused on “give or not”. I will always firmly believe that the investment made by this group of people will be a huge profit in return. Mr. Li is here to show mercy!

“Today is not a formal meeting,” said Ren Jiangfeng, the deputy mayor of New Taipei City in charge of the technology industry. He is a middle-aged man wearing square glasses. “The main thing is to understand your needs and take a look. Let’s see what ideas and suggestions everyone has. It’s just an exchange meeting. Let’s talk freely.”

“Thank you leaders...”

"Don't say that," Zuo Yuming waved directly without turning on the microphone, "How old are you? Don't talk politely to us old guys. Just say what you need to say, and show off the same momentum you had at the developer conference. Come on."

"Director Zuo is so young, how can he be called an old guy?" Director Chen of the New Taipei Science and Technology Bureau said with a smile.

Can you take a lick of this? advanced.

Li Yan secretly gave a thumbs up.

"It depends on who you are comparing with. The person opposite us is a fifteen-year-old genius boy. Who can compare with him who is not an old guy?"

After Zuo Yuming said these two words, the venue burst into laughter and the atmosphere became more relaxed.

Then Deputy Mayor Ren asked a rather strange question: "Li Yan, how do you register a company called 'Future Intelligent Technology'?"

As expected, he was most concerned about Li Yan's company registration. things.

“Originally I wanted to call it Future Technology, something simple and direct, but someone else registered it and added ‘intelligence’. I was too lazy to think of a name.” Li Yan said with a smile.

“Check who registered Future Technology as a company.” Vice Mayor Ren said directly to the person from the Municipal Party Committee Office.

"Ahem, this, Uncle Ren, this name is not bad now, there is no need to change it."

Both the two big leaders asked questions. Academician Ni is a technical person, and he probably only works when it comes to systems. He would say something during development, and others would be more open-minded and formally ask Li Yan some relatively core questions.

What is the current progress of the mobile phone, what support is needed, what support can New Taipei give him, etc.

After chatting for a while and praising each other face to face, Deputy Mayor Ren finally got straight to the point:

“The most important thing in today’s meeting is to figure out the investment matter. Li Yan, you are currently Do you have an idea of ​​the required start-up capital? ”
