Wind Rises 2005

Chapter 274 The Fisherman

"20? 5% of the shares?"

When Wang Tao heard this proposal, he was also puzzled.

You must know that before tonight's dinner, Ma Liangke had been advocating to invest 200 million yuan and directly obtain 20-30% of the shares of Dajiang Company.

Although he never agreed, but the other party suddenly lowered the offer, he felt a sense of loss in his heart.

It was as if something that was supposed to belong to me was suddenly gone.

But Wang Tao pondered it in his mind quickly, Ma Liang's proposal was so good that he couldn't refuse it at all.

Originally, he still had a headache, not knowing how many shares to give to the teacher.

Although Professor Li Da refused later, saying frankly that he was willing to invest in shares like Ma Liang, it made Wang Tao even more difficult.

Because he didn't know what price and what ratio to transfer the shares to Li Zexiang.

It is difficult to repay the debt of favor, and Li Zexiang's kindness to him is too great, and he always feels that no matter how he handles the matter of shares, it is very difficult to handle.

If one is not careful, it is easy to destroy the relationship between master and apprentice.

Now that the price and ratio came out of Ma Liang's mouth, and it happened to be within the most acceptable range in his heart, this made Wang Tao very happy.

It is far more appropriate for Ma Liang, a third party, to propose than to speak out on his own initiative.

Regardless of the final result, Li Zexiang will not be offended.

Wang Tao couldn't help but glanced at Ma Liang, and found that the other party was looking at him calmly, with an intriguing smile on his face.

He thought about it again, and suddenly realized it.

This is a conspiracy. Ma Liang saw that he couldn't refuse the proposal, so he took advantage of the situation.
Got him right.

As long as he agrees to this proposal, Ma Liang can join Li Zexiang in investing in Dajiang.

Although he could turn his head around and regret it on the spot, Wang Tao inexplicably felt that he didn't want to do that.

Recalling what the young investor in front of him said, every sentence hit the point, which made him have mixed feelings for a while.

The office space must be changed, and talents must continue to be recruited, otherwise the product will never come out.

That being the case, it is very important to accept Ma Liang's proposal and renew some funds for Dajiang Company.

Anyway, the teacher's shares must be allocated a little bit, and it is not impossible to allocate 5% to Ma Liang by the way.

It is better to exchange 10% of the shares for 40 venture capital than to sell 20%-30% directly.

But what moved him the most was Ma Liang's previous promise that he would never interfere with the management of entrepreneurs, and even handed over the shareholders' decision-making and voting rights to himself.

These thoughts were just a quick spin in Wang Tao's mind, and he quickly made a decision: "I am willing to accept Mr. Ma's proposal!
20, 5% of the shares, no problem.

Teacher, what do you think? "

"It's not that I can't afford 20 yuan, the key is that you should be more steadfast in the future, kid.

In case it gets dirty, how many classes do I have to teach to save so much money. Seeing Wang Tao's excited appearance, Li Zexiang reprimanded him angrily.

Wang Tao immediately made a promise: "Teacher, don't worry, I will develop a mature product as soon as possible, and I will never disappoint everyone's expectations."

Hearing that he set the flag, Ma Liang didn't say anything, just smiled without saying a word.

According to the trajectory of the previous life, in the first two years of starting a business, Dajiang Company really did not develop anything, and it has been unable to make ends meet.

Because at the moment, Dajiang Company has far insufficient R&D talents.

Moreover, the main product is not a multi-rotor UAV, but a flight control system. The product is not aimed at ordinary consumers, so how could there be improvement.

The early stage of hardware technology entrepreneurship is extremely tormented.Because it is a long-term process from theory to mass production, so is the flight control.

After a year of hard work, there is still no shadow of the product, and the backbones who joined Dajiang in the early days began to become impetuous.Coupled with the unknown prospects of the company, everyone began to make wishful thinking.

With no hope in sight, Dajiang's employees even began to think carefully.

Some employees took refuge in the partners they had negotiated with, and some secretly listed the company's assets for sale online.

What's more, after resigning, he cooperated with internal employees and sold Dajiang's pirated flight controllers.

So don't look at what Wang Tao said now, but the real crisis of Dajiang Company has not yet come.

As for whether to remind the other party, Ma Liang's answer is no.

Humans are the most difficult species in the world to change. Even parents and mothers cannot change, let alone outsiders.

That's why there is such a saying, don't look back if you don't hit the south wall.

Now go up and persuade Wang Tao to treat employees better, plan the equity structure in advance, allocate option plans for technical backbones, stop doing flight control and helicopters, and transform consumer-grade multi-rotor aerial photography drones is the right way, etc. Wait, this guy will definitely think that Ma Liang is trying to seize power.

Only when Wang Tao suffers a loss and hits a wall can he be persuaded. Now going up and saying it will only make him disgusted and will not change anything.

After all, in the previous life, it was not that no one in Dajiang Company proposed to transform into a multi-rotor aerial photography drone, but Wang Tao still insisted on rejecting it.

Lu Zhihui, who was the first to put forward the proposal, turned around and went to Airtech Aviation, an aircraft model company that was proud at the time, after leaving Dajiang Company, and set up a UAV R&D team for it from 0 to 1, and made the first power inspection in China Drone project.

Lu Zhihui later left his job and transferred to Yidian Technology, and soon made the first consumer-grade multi-rotor aerial photography drone.

If it wasn't for the brain-dead boss of Yidian Technology, who insisted on smashing military-grade drones and rejected Lu Zhihui's suggestion to produce consumer-grade drones, it wouldn't be Dajiang's turn to take advantage of it.

You should know that it was only 2009 when Lu Zhihui made a multi-rotor aerial photography drone at Yidian Technology.

It was only in 2011 that Wang Tao decided to switch to multi-rotor aerial photography drones.

If Yidian Technology really took the lead, maybe there would be nothing wrong with Dajiang later.I dare not say anything else, at least it is impossible to be so smooth.

But now let alone Ma Liang, even the teacher Li Zexiang can't speak well.

Just wait and see, before the end of the year, Wang Tao will have made all the money from this financing.

At that time, just like in the previous life, the biggest crisis of Dajiang Company will be ushered in.

Is 40 million a lot?

In 2006, it was indeed a lot, and it was enough to buy a small apartment in Pengcheng.

But if 40 is used to start a business, especially in the field of hardware technology, it is far from enough.

For rent, staff wages, experimental consumables, etc., 40 yuan may not even be a splash.

Now is 2006, not ten or 20 years ago, when households with ten thousand yuan were local tyrants.

That is to say, Wang Tao is now a novice entrepreneur, so he dared to come to Pengcheng with only 20 yuan to start a business. How could he not know that 200 million yuan is enough for such an unreliable job like him.

In the previous life, it was also after Li Zexiang helped to intervene, helping with financing and recruiting talents, that Dajiang Company ushered in a turning point.

Otherwise, relying on Wang Tao who doesn't know anything at this time, it will be difficult to get things done.

As for the 40 being lost by this guy, Ma Liang was not panicked at all, anyway, half of the money was paid by Professor Li Zexiang and Li Da.

And he is like a fisherman, the 20 is just the next bait.

If the bait is eaten by the fish, it means that the fish has already taken the bait. Why would the fisherman feel distressed? He will only be happier.

As long as he takes the 5% stake first, he will be on the same boat as Wang Tao.When Dajiang company encounters a big crisis, this guy will definitely come to him for help first.

At that time, it is time for Ma Liang to really intervene.

Not only can more shares of Dajiang Company be acquired, but the price can continue to be lowered.

Presumably Wang Tao at that time must have lost his current rebelliousness, and would have become extremely obedient.

At that time, it would not be so difficult to persuade him to transform into a multi-rotor UAV in advance.

So for Ma Liang, he just needs to be a good fisherman at the moment.Anyway, it will be a few years before the advent of the mobile Internet, and he has enough patience to wait.

After all, it is the development of the mobile Internet that drives the development of various smart hardware industries.

Without the popularity of the mobile Internet, even if someone wants to make a multi-rotor aerial photography drone, it is impossible to achieve a particularly large market breakthrough.

With Dajiang's technical reserves, there is always time to catch up.

Seeing that Wang Tao finally ate his bait, Ma Liang couldn't say how happy he was.

So he said excitedly: "Mr. Wang, Professor Li, I won't be staying in Pengcheng for long, and there are still many things waiting for me to deal with in Donghai.

Why don't we sign the investment agreement tomorrow, and I will arrange for the finance to transfer the 20 investment funds to Dajiang Company's account as soon as possible, what do you think? "

"Okay, no problem on my side.

Anyway, I would like to thank Mr. Ma for his attention on behalf of Wang Tao, a student. "After all, Li Zexiang's age is there, so he is naturally much more sophisticated in his ways of the world.

Ma Liang hurriedly replied politely: "Professor Li is too out of touch, this is normal business behavior for me, everyone gets what they need."

"Mr. Ma is happy, I, Wang Tao, really convinced this time." After a meal, Wang Tao's view of Ma Liang changed greatly.

He always felt that he could learn a lot from this young investor.

But in my heart, I still have a faint rivalry with Ma Liang, and I want to develop the product as soon as possible, and take Dajiang Company to take off as soon as possible.
