Chapter 44 The dust settles
At this moment, the conference room suddenly fell silent.
Ma Teng stood up and patted his back: "Sorry, I'll go to the bathroom."
"Sorry, I'll go too."
Several people hurried out.
Ma Teng sighed in the bathroom: "Hey, it's been too long since he left the academic circle. These cutting-edge things can't be understood after listening. But looking at the expressions of the old professors, there should be no problem... Xisha University has been working with us for a long time and has always had a good credit."
"Xiao Guo, what do you think of Zhang Yuan?"
The assistant named Xiao Guo thought about it and said seriously: "Mr. Ma, if you can, you must recruit it. I guess that with him, you can shorten the time process by at least one-third. Originally, 12 months of work could be completed in 8 months..."
The bathroom door opened again, and Chairman Ding also walked in.
As soon as he came in, he shouted: "Mr. Ma, can I ask you something in my personal name?"
The circle is so big, although the two are opponents, they are friends in private.
Ma Teng laughed as if he knew what he was going to say: "No, don't accept it! Even in private names, it will definitely not accept it!"
"Mr. Ding, do you really want to compete with me for this person?"
Ding Peng also laughed: "Then let's carry the sedan chair together and bring the price to the moon together?"
"I'm not stupid. I think this is possible..."
When these people came back, Ma Teng's first words were: "Mr. Zhang, have you considered staying on Earth and joining our company?"
He raised two fingers and made a gesture, "I will give you an annual salary of two million. If the government punishes you, we will take it all!"
Faced with this behavior of poaching in person, the representatives of the two Deep Space Foundations turned green, but they didn't know what to say.
Zhang Yuan immediately shook his head: "I'm sorry, Mr. Ma... This is my wish since I was a child."
The two representatives breathed a sigh of relief again.
Ma Teng said meaningfully: "Two million is already a lot. If I pass a high-paying position, I have to spend a lot of quarrels on the board of directors... Every cent in the company has a budget."
"You know, we only met for two hours and knew that your level was very good, so we offered this price..."
"But the level of knowledge does not mean work ability. I have seen too many people who can only say, people who can't do it... If the results are really achieved in the future, the price is definitely not a problem!"
Ding Peng laughed and said, "Boss Ma, you are too stingy. I pay three million yuan in annual salary, and the other one million is collected from my private pocket! As long as you are willing to stay here."
Zhang Yuan hurriedly said: "Thank you with love is actually not a matter of money, even 200 million yuan, not enough. Mr. Ma, Mr. Ding, I think, standing in your position, you should be able to understand that life is not just for money, but also many things that are more important than money."
"I can also complete this project on the spacecraft. There are communication devices inside the spacecraft, so remote communication is not difficult."
Ma Teng was stunned and nodded, indicating that he could understand and sat down quietly.
There was a little silence in the conference room for a while.
After a while, he said with an admiring tone: "I really envy you young people, abandoning everything, and starting over on a strange planet. Sometimes, I also have such an impulse."
"A new civilization, a great concept. In our fantasy, like heaven, always has infinite possibilities."
“…As a vested interest in the development of Earth civilization to the present, I often think that many things are inappropriate, but I don’t know how to correct them.”
"Or, I actually know that many things are wrong, but I also oppose this correction because it will affect my personal interests. This may be the butt that determines the head..."
"I hope you, the new civilization, can become better."
"Thank you, Mr. Ma." Zhang Yuan said with a smile.
"Look, he won't stay here!" Wang Lili discussed secretly below.
Han Ziyue smiled and said, "I know. If he really stays, I'm too lazy to pay attention to him..."
"Don't you think he looked handsome when he refused just now? That boss Ma was stunned! Two hundred million is not enough..."
Wang Lili was quite helpless, "Okay, I really don't understand that you, the young and literary girls, are making trouble for yourself. You don't want to make friends with him at all."
...
In this way, the entire cooperation matter lasted for three days, and the intriguing equity distribution process and various terms made Zhang Yuan exhausted.
Even Professor Lu and Professor Lin, who are usually gentle and gentle, need to participate in it and say that they can participate in part of the work.
After the incident, Zhang Yuan was treating two girls to dinner in a small restaurant.
"I finally know why those big companies are so rich, they are just masters who don't show off their eagles. They save money!" Zhang Yuan couldn't help but complain.
The five major companies were ripping around, but in the end, they only invested 20 million yuan, which was really shocking. They were preparing to register a small company called "Genesis Technology Co., Ltd.".
As one of the technology providers, Zhang Yuan owns 10% of the shares. Of course, if you want this 10% of the company's shares, you will lose an annual salary of two million.
"I'm really convinced that they have to save two million in salary."
But that being said, he was in a pretty good mood. Although he was like a big dog when donating, those were all the property left by his father, but now they were the money he earned, which was obviously different.
Han Ziyue smiled and said, "This round of investment is called the 'seed round'. The project only has one concept, only idea but no specific products or services. It is also called face-scanning investment... It means giving you money based on face."
"They can invest 20 million, which is already a great deal of face for you and the college! After all, there is nothing. Can't it be possible to rely on one concept to make others invest billions? It's impossible."
Zhang Yuan nodded, it was indeed the case.
No matter how optimistic it is, whether the results can actually come out are still two different things.
Han Ziyue said again: "Didn't they reserve the right to give priority to additional investment in the cooperation treaty? If they really achieve results, these big companies will definitely invest money in a rush. After the A, B, and C, they can quickly grow into a big company."
"Okay, I know this too. The investment is small now, it's just a kind of risk control. But they are really tricky."
Zhang Yuan said: "And, the big company will have nothing to do with me in the next few years."
He doesn't care how the company will develop in the future, and he is not on earth, so he can't enjoy this sense of accomplishment.
The people from the foundation also helped him gain considerable benefits. According to the company's articles of association, Zhang Yuan's 10% shares are considered fixed shares, so he will still have 10% financing and expansion in the future and will not be diluted.
"If it's not a fixed share, I might as well donate it to the foundation for compensation."
This distribution method is actually very scammed. Ten percent of the fixed proportion of shares can guarantee your shareholding ratio without additional investment. Zhang Yuan made a big profit. The premise is that this project can really make progress, otherwise it would be just a mirage.
Afterwards, several chairman invited him and the professors to have a meal together, but Zhang Yuan politely refused. It would be better if he didn't do such social engagements, but everyone could understand them anyway.
"Why might as well have a meal with you!"
“Why?”
Zhang Yuan said hesitantly: "Because it saves time."
"I don't know how long it will take to discuss with them, and I have to compliment each other, which is annoying."
There was a burst of laughter and joy for a moment.
Zhang Yuan felt relieved when a thought came to an end. This should be the last big thing before leaving.
After looking at the date, there was only the last day left, Zhang Yuan couldn't help feeling a little sad.
That is, tomorrow, the last day I will stay on earth.
