At 7:30 in the evening, Ma Yun arrived late.

As soon as I walked in, my face was full of apologies, and I quickly clasped my hands and said, "I'm sorry, I have a lot to do, I came a little late, and I kept you waiting for a long time."

"It's not too late. We just went to take a bath in a hot spring. The time is just right."

Lin Zitai put away the teasing smile on his face and asked with a smile: "Mr. Ma, you don't have any taboos when you cook mutton tonight, right?"

"No problem, this weather is the best to eat hotpot mutton."

Ma Yun said with a smile, but a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes, wondering what Lin Zitai and Ma Huateng had just talked about.

Why is one looking weird and the other looking solemn? There is still a very weird atmosphere in the air.

However, where he was, there was no such thing as silence. In those days, he relied on his eloquence to speculate in the streets.

"We should still protect our environment. In recent years, the weather in our country and abroad has been extremely abnormal, either very hot or very cold."

Ma Yun just sat down and started talking eloquently, which was in sharp contrast to Ma Huateng, who was habitually silent.

Lin Zitai couldn't help but laugh as he watched Ma Yun's performance, often making a few remarks to ease the scene a little.

What he just talked about with Ma Huateng was a bit private and it was not appropriate to get to the point. He needed some time to relax.

The three of them all understood each other tacitly, and did not order any wine. They just ate hotpot mutton, drank juice, and chatted about various things.

From the world situation, we talked about the situation in various countries, and then talked about the war that might break out next door.

After everyone had eaten and drank enough, several people followed the service staff to the tea room to drink tea and eat.

Lin Zitai sat at the main seat, brewing tea and expressing his views. The three parties had invested a total of US$30 billion in the early stage for the research and development of brain-computer interfaces and artificial intelligence.

He plans to go to the capital tomorrow to run some errands and invest in setting up artificial intelligence projects in two universities in northern Qing Dynasty.

Including the Jinling University he will invest in and build in the future, relevant majors and related laboratories will also be added.

Ma Yun frowned. Although he was talkative, he remained silent when it came to important projects, intending to listen to the opinions of the other two first.

Although US$30 billion is a lot of capital, it is not difficult for those who have been the richest people. The key lies in the allocation of shares.

Ma Huateng couldn't hold back his anger and asked in a deep voice: "Mr. Lin, how should the shares be distributed? There must be a priority. We should focus our efforts by shaking our fists."

Ever since Lin Zitai talked about letting Ma Yun join, he realized that he should plan to carry out a 30/35/35 ratio.

This is good for Lin Zitai to have both sides, but it is not good for Penguin or the companies he will establish in the future.

They were all entrepreneurs in the past, and they know very well that in the early stages of a company's start-up, the most taboo thing is uneven distribution of power, and the lack of strength will eventually lead to a bottle of dissatisfaction and a half-bottle swaying.

Ma Yun also nodded, acquiescing to Ma Huateng's statement.

The two of them looked at Lin Zitai. If they wanted to be the neutral party, they must have the ability to appease both parties.

If it is a 30/35/35 distribution, it means that he cannot get control. How can he stage the return of the king?

If she can come back this time, Ma Yun will definitely make a strong comeback in the name of making Ahri great again.

But if Penguin Control is allowed to take control, his plan to make Ahri great again will be nothing more than a joke.

Although the two companies are in different tracks, they have been competing overtly and covertly in recent years, including their employees.

Ahri’s employees have been holding their breath in their hearts. They didn’t lose, they just chose the wrong track.

If the system were changed, Ahri would definitely win. After all, finance is the top of all industries.

At this time, if Ma Yun surrenders to Penguin, wouldn't it be a public statement that they have lost.

Even if he could come back, he would still lose the support of the people.

Lin Zitai smiled faintly, called Deng Jiahao, and took out two letters of intent for cooperation: "Boss, Mr. Ma, why don't you take a look first?"

He had anticipated this situation a long time ago and knew that neither horse would obey the other, so he was prepared.

The US$30 billion they invested was not to establish one company, but US$ billion each to establish three companies.

To be precise, it is a parent company, two subsidiaries, and three companies with cross-shareholdings. The three parent companies each hold 30% of the shares, and the remaining 10% is injected into the option pool for rewards.

The other two subsidiaries are responsible for brain-computer interface and artificial intelligence respectively, and the company's share distribution is the same.

Whoever's project breaks through first will get the last 10%. Lin Zitai provides rewards but does not participate in the competition.

After more than ten minutes, Lin Zitai put down his tea cup, believing that both of them roughly understood the rules of the game.

In order to make them accept this rule better, Lin Zitai looked bitter and sighed helplessly: "The West is too far ahead of us in this aspect. Please forgive me, but I had no choice but to take this step." Lin Zitai said very aggrieved, and also expressed a Meaning, there will be pressure when there is competition, and there will be motivation when there is pressure.

He does not want to waste time on some meaningless power struggles in cooperative projects.

After hearing this, the two fell into silence.

This time the bet was a bit big, and the hope was placed on others and their scientific researchers.

They don't like the feeling of having their destiny controlled by others.

Lin Zitai smiled calmly, continued to brew Gongfu tea, and waited quietly for their reply.

Having said that, whoever wants to make the decision must rely on his or her ability to speak.

He treats everyone equally and does not favor anyone. If you don't even have the courage to gamble, there is no need to continue to cooperate.

Life is all about gambling. If you don't gamble, how can you turn around? If you don't gamble, how can you get to where you are today?

Another ten minutes passed.

The two asked almost in unison: "Mr. Lin, please give us some time to go back and think about it."

Whether Penguin or Ahri can dominate the industry in various fields, as founders, they naturally have no shortage of gambling skills.

But gambling requires not only a gambling spirit, but also a certainty of victory. Even if it is 30% to 50%, even 10% is good, at least there must be a chance of victory.

But it doesn't matter how big the chance is. They still need to go back and ask the person in charge of the relevant department to have a thorough understanding before making a decision.

"How about three days? I will go to the capital tomorrow for business. I hope to hear your answers when I come back."

Lin Zitai emphasized the capital many times, not to show off that he wanted to go to the capital or how good his relationship with the leaders in the capital was.

But I want to tell them that the era of two-horse competition has passed, and a new Internet giant is rising.

And its headquarters is in Beijing.

When Lin Zitai goes to the capital this time, he will most likely meet the other party, and he might even invite him to join the project.

The two horses frowned and looked at each other. They could see the fear in each other's eyes, and they both understood the meaning of Lin Zitai's words.

There is only one Internet giant in Beijing, not Baidu, the Internet veteran, but ByteDance, owned by Zhang Yiming.

ByteDance’s revenue last year was US$432 billion, and its annual overseas revenue is still rising at an extremely terrifying rate.

A software that has emerged in a market with a population of 1.4 billion will kill gods and Buddhas in foreign markets.

It has been strictly banned by Western countries many times, but without success, it has become the overlord of new media in various countries around the world.

Today's valuation has reached 1850 billion US dollars, ranking first among the world's top 8000 unicorn companies. It is more than billion soft sister coins away from the second place Musk's SpaceX.

Because the world's top 500 unicorns are an evaluation of some unlisted companies. Companies of the size of Byte have not yet been listed. There are no predecessors before, and there will be few comers in the future.

In fact, Lin Zitai's Prince Group can also be counted among them, but he has never released the group's financial report and revenue, so he has been excluded from the list.

"Mr. Lin, Mr. Ma, you guys have a good meal and a good drink. I'm leaving before the matter just finished is finished."

Ma Yun suddenly couldn't sit still. She made an excuse and left early. She hurried back to Hangzhou to understand the progress of the project and estimate how successful it was.

He was kicked out by Ahri, so he was more eager than Ma Huateng and didn't want Byte to join.

"Mr. Lin, I'm leaving too."

Ma Huateng followed closely behind. Although he was slightly better than Ma Yun and had a way out, he did not want Byte to become bigger.

Because Byte's hand is stretched too far, its left hand is live-streaming goods to attack e-commerce, and its right hand is launching big entertainment projects.

Domestic revenue can reach US$215 billion, which has eroded the market of Penguin and Ali.

At least Ma Huateng and Ma Yun have reached an agreement on not wanting Byte to join.

"Slow down, you two."

Lin Zitai stood at the door of the club, watching the two people leave in the car, with a smile on his lips.

Byte's catfish was effective, but he never thought about cooperating with Zhang Yiming from beginning to end.

That guy is too timid and timid. Although he is a new Internet giant, his background is not as good as Penguin and Ahri. (End of chapter)
