After hanging up the phone, Xu Zhenming asked Hu Chunmei to order air tickets back to Nan'an City tomorrow.At this time, Gui Changshu called him."Leader Xu! Are you free tomorrow? I have something to discuss with you!" After the call was connected, Gui Changshu made an appointment with him to meet tomorrow.
I don't know what's going on with this old man, it's mysterious, Xu Zhenming simply postponed one more day and decided to return to Nan'an City on December 17.
In the afternoon, Zhang Chaoyang arrived as scheduled and brought a delicate young girl.
This woman is tall, thin and tall, with good looks. She is wearing a violet down jacket with long black hair draped behind her shoulders.Such a gentle and demure woman is rare, Xu Zhenming couldn't help but take another look.
"Mr. Xu! This is my fellow, named Liu Jing, a talented student from the Department of Economics of Beijing Normal University. She is the chief financial officer of our entrepreneurial team!" Zhang Chaoyang introduced this person to Xu Zhenming with a smile.
According to the IT industry's entrepreneurial team's rules for finding venture capital, Zhang Chaoyang's team is still three less, one is the technical director, the other is the sales director, and the other is the human resources director.The core team of the five-member group can deceive angel investment with the project PPT.
From this point of view, Zhang Chaoyang's team has not yet formed, he is a bit too impatient!
"You only have 15 minutes to elaborate on the project!" Thinking of this, Xu Zhenming gave Zhang Chaoyang one last chance as agreed.
Zhang Chaoyang took a deep breath and calmed down the fluctuations in his heart.
He actually has a spare tire, and he can get angel investment directly from Ponti.But the teacher Pang Di had a high evaluation of Xu Zhenming, and he couldn't help but want to use his project to convince Xu Zhenming and get angel investment from Xu Zhenming's hands.
This incident was originally a gimmick.If it can be successful, get a propaganda in the United States.Did Sequoia and Goldman Sachs follow suit?At least $10 million in venture capital can be obtained.
"With the three words of Xu Zhenming, those thunderous institutions in the United States will cost millions of dollars!" This is the original words of teacher Pang Di, which Zhang Chaoyang firmly remembered.
He looked at Xu Zhenming's smile, and said slowly:
"My project is called'Shou (Search) Fire (Fox)', a pure Chinese keyword search technology, providing customers with data analysis, target data list recommendation... etc. At the same time, the website is a comprehensive Chinese portal, providing news, sports, Star Entertainment... and other latest information! The early profit model is advertising revenue..."
This time, Zhang Chaoyang was attentive, expounding all the details he could consider, and the language was very refined.His project can get venture capital from the United States.
After Xu Zhenming heard his introduction, he was a little suspicious that this person was hiding in the first place.
However, this project is still not worth investing in Xu Zhenming's eyes.When the domestic Internet industry emerged, a good project might be born every minute, and the website technology was also good.But how many projects can survive?
"According to your profit model, I estimate that it will take 7-8 years to turn losses into profits. Can your'first fire' last so long? Venture capital depends on the return!"
Seeing that the fifteen minutes had come, Xu Zhenming unceremoniously interrupted Zhang Chaoyang's speech and said his first doubt.
"Mr. Xu! Can I add something?" At this moment, Liu Jing smiled and looked at Xu Zhenming with bright eyes.
According to the rules of venture capital companies for investigating projects, Zhang Chaoyang's project has actually been PASS.Seeing that the fledgling Liu Jing must fight for the opportunity to speak, Xu Zhenming simply accepted her heart.
"Mr. Xu! We arranged this: The first step of the research and development of the'First Fire' project requires your angel funding to start. After the website goes live, we are going to the U.S. to find ISI for financing, and we can get at least 2 million US dollars. With these funds, we will establish Modu and Yangcheng branches to expand our business scope!"
"In this way, our project will be the first person in a domestic Internet company. Then we will go to the U.S. for the third round of financing, and at least 10 million US dollars will be raised. If this continues, our "first fire" project will be able to operate until 1999. Listed on the Nasdaq in the United States!"
Liu Jing's thinking is very clear, it is simply a perfect process for an Internet company to go public.However, their project company should still be operating at a loss when it went public.
But this kind of thinking does not conform to Xu Zhenming's values.Moreover, Xu Zhenming does not want to invest in the project to go public in the United States.Therefore, he shook his head and said: "Even if your project can be listed, it is still operating at a loss. What use is it for the people in China?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Jing knew that her statement had also failed."Hey... the future scientist Xu Zhenming's mind is more conservative, how did you write the book "Survival under Digitalization"?" She couldn't help but glance at Xu Zhenming, her cheeks flushed slightly.
At this time, Xu Zhenming smiled slightly and said: "Liu Jing! If you are willing to join our Yiming Group, I would be very welcome. Salary and work location are up to you!"
"Eh? Xu Zhenming wants to dig me quietly!" Hearing this, Zhang Chaoyang thought depressed.
Liu Jing was even more excited, her eyes shone brightly, and Feiyun suddenly thought: "I'm taken by future scientists! The company he founded is also very good! What should I do? Should I go or not?"
Although Xu Zhenming's reputation in China is not very big, he is famous on the campus of Jingshi University. Almost all college students know his name.College students of this era think that the United States is better than that, but Xu Zhenming used a book to conquer the country, isn't it better?
"Manager Zhang! If you are willing to come to our Yiming Group, I will still wait. However, this time should be before the end of February 1996." At this time, Xu Zhenming once again extended an invitation to Zhang Chaoyang.He gave Zhang Chaoyang a deadline.
Zhang Chaoyang is very sensitive and can hear a lot of information from Xu Zhenming's words."Mr. Xu! I take the liberty to ask, will your group company's Internet products go online before the end of February 1996?" He couldn't help but inquire about the trade secrets of Yiming Group.This is very important to him, and is related to the success or failure of the "first fire" project.
Upon hearing this, Liu Jing suddenly realized Xu Zhenming: "Yiming Group had to make its own Internet products! No wonder Xu always sees my creativity clearly! I...I want to join Yiming Group!"
Thinking of this, Liu Jing sat up straight and looked at Xu Zhenming, "Mr. Xu! I am willing to join Yiming Group. I work in Beijing, how about an annual salary of 60,000 yuan?"
This year, the consumption level of Jingshi is not very high, and the annual salary of 60,000 yuan is no longer the bottom.
Through Liu Jing's salary offer, Xu Zhenming has already seen that this person has little ambition.As a top student who graduated from Beijing Normal University, earning five thousand yuan a month is not too much.
"The annual salary of 60,000 is just the basic salary! You can also get the project's stocks, and there will be dividends at the end of the year!" Thinking of this, Xu Zhenming decided to keep this person and add a financial director to the Beijing Normal University Software Center.
"Thank Mr. Xu! I will definitely work hard!"
"what?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Jing and Zhang Chaoyang had different expressions.Liu Jing's excited smile flushed, and Zhang Chaoyang turned pale in panic.
"Mr. Xu! I want to be quiet! Can I reply to you in ten minutes?" Zhang Chaoyang hesitated when Xu Zhenming poached the beautiful fellow Liu Jing on the spot.
He also knows that Xu Zhenming has a reputation on the university campus of the Capital City. If he enthusiastically invests in the Internet industry, he will surely get top talents soon.By then, how can he compete with Yiming Group?
After thinking about it, Zhang Chaoyang decided to give up his own business and join Yiming Group.He wants to learn some experience from Xu Zhenming, and then start his own business.
This is the case for Internet companies, where the mobility of talents is very high.Before making a fortune, many big men lurked in other Internet companies to practice martial arts secrets.
Thinking of this, Zhang Chaoyang stood up and shook hands with Xu Zhenming solemnly: "Mr. Xu! I am willing to join your team. Follow your teachings!"
In this case, Xu Zhenming must immediately adjust the structure and tasks of the Beijing Normal University Software Center.He called Zhang Yang, Zhu Xiaolong, Professor Huang and others and held a meeting and meeting together in the conference room.
"I decided to set up another Internet technology company to develop Internet products!" After everyone sat down, Xu Zhenming announced his new decision.
What surprised Liu Jing was that she was appointed by Xu Zhenming as the legal representative and chief financial officer of the new company.Not only that, but also serves as the Chief Financial Officer of Gaoshi Software Center.
This is the rhythm to be reused!"My luck is really good! Thank you fellow Zhang Chaoyang!" After hearing the appointment announced by Xu Zhenming, Liu Jing thought beautifully.
But Zhang Chaoyang was very depressed.Although he was appointed by Xu Zhenming as the general manager of the new company, Xu Zhenming rejected his first suggestion.
"Zhang Zong's suggestion is to use fox as the trademark. I don't think it is appropriate. There is a FOX company in the U.S., and it will rip off sometimes. Panda is our country's national treasure, and it is very appropriate to use panda as the trademark of the new company."
At this time, Xu Zhenming explained the meaning of "Talking Panda" as a trademark.
Pandas are cute, have affinity, and are well-known internationally.Using the cartoon image of this national treasure-level animal as a trademark is helpful to publicize the Internet products of Yiming Group.
Now that the trademark has been determined, the names of the new company and Internet products have all been determined by Xu Zhenming.
"Our product is called'Soubao'. The National Treasure Panda helps users search for treasures on the Internet!"
Xu Zhenming told about the Chinese search engine, Chinese comprehensive portal website, Chinese instant messaging PP chat tool... etc. he planned.
In half an hour, the concept of an Internet family product in a closed ecosystem was shown in front of everyone.
This product concept comes from the Penguin company in another time and space. It is said that it is the most advanced at this time, and no product can stand by it.
