Rich life from scratch

Chapter 58
Lin Qishan is willing to talk about options, because...he only has money, he has no technology, and even his creativity is not unique, he can only say that he can see the future.

And in today's society, people with technology and resources don't necessarily focus on high salaries. If they want high salaries, it's more stable for them to go to big companies. Why come to your small temple?
The fundamental reason is that you have strength and ambition, but lack the start-up capital, or you want to rely on a big tree to share the risk, and meeting a boss who is willing to spend a lot of money is a match made in heaven.

Ideals alone cannot fill one's stomach, and down-to-earth future expectations can motivate a person even more.If you want the horse to run fast, you have to feed it grass, and you have to show it the grass farther away.

Equity incentives are an indispensable part of start-up companies. He has studied the practice in Silicon Valley, and usually sets aside 15-25 points as incentives, and then continues to expand the option pool after the AB round of financing.

But Lin Qishan considered his own actual situation. He invested a lot of money at the beginning, and a small percentage has great value, so about 10% of the first round is enough, and the rest depends on the prospects to decide.

In this regard, Lin Qishan boasted that he would guarantee a project budget of at least [-] million yuan, so he discussed with Tao Yucheng for a while. At the same time, he also learned about his past works, the effectiveness of the team he led, and how they were similar to the original team due to differences in development. Don't think about your new way out in advance.

Lin Qishan could tell that this person had confidence in his ability and connections, but he lacked the determination to break the boat. He didn't dare to call on a few brothers to raise money together and use his wealth to do it alone like others.

After all, people and people can't be generalized. You only see the refreshment of angry solo flight, but you don't see the risk of feeding the tiger with a sliding shovel.

A certain master of exhortation shared: My husband had resigned naked for several months and couldn’t find a new job. His wife’s boss learned about it and threatened to wear small shoes for her. Due to family pressure, his wife had to accompany his boss on various business trips.

This reality teaches us not to resign naked, or your wife will be in danger.

On a higher level: Not everyone can put all their eggs in one basket to start a business, because success is always a minority, and more people die on this road... This is Tao Yucheng's current situation.

But now the new status quo is that he has met a boss with whom he can get along very well. They coincide with each other in many project ideas, and the boss has strong funds, so the risk he bears is very low.

According to Tao Yucheng's income level, he is a master of technology, and his income in other companies has exceeded one million. After joining the current model, he only needs an annual salary of 50. He is also willing to introduce peer teams and bring him financing contacts. , IDG, Hillhouse, and Jinshajiang can all connect.

After many discussions, Lin Qishan negotiated with Tao Yucheng to give him 0.5% equity + 3% options. The first 2-5 employees who join in the future will generally be more powerful roles, and they will give him about 1%.

After that, the top 15 employees are about 0.3%-0.5%... He has followed the mainstream practice of Silicon Valley companies and borrowed the wisdom of predecessors.

In fact, options are just a big picture. If the project is successful in the future, he doesn't care about the effort, and if it doesn't, he doesn't care.

Lin Qishan has money, Tao Yucheng has ability and connections.

This is a collaboration of like-mindedness.

As for whether the project is successful or not, it still depends on God's will, but Lin Qishan believes that man can conquer nature, and money can turn the world around!

Make an appointment to play this APP project, and with the first general who has been negotiated, officially hit the road!

……

Lin Qishan arranged for Tao Yucheng to serve as the company's vice president and chief technology officer. In the later stage, depending on his performance, if he is very good, he will also be the CEO within the established regulations.

To put it bluntly, Lin Qishan wanted to have the reputation of a successful entrepreneur, but he didn't want to have the hardships of the entrepreneurial process.

Tao Yucheng readily accepted this condition. He began to work on the APP project with full motivation, mobilized his contacts, and attracted senior personnel in the industry. His appeal and persuasion were much stronger than Lin Qishan's.

Lin Qishan was happy to see this situation. The employees were capable and he could save himself trouble. At most, he arranged for Han Siqing to watch for him, control the funds, and report the direction of the strategy to himself in time.

Then he's off to focus on something else, expanding his social circle.

Just like Tao Yucheng's example, with a wide network of contacts, your path is really easy!This is what Lin Qishan understood in his previous life. Whether it is business or industry turmoil, those with many friends can often seize the opportunity.

Rebirth makes the previous life's accumulation all zero, so in this life, you must start to accumulate while you are young.Two days later, the sports car he purchased finally arrived.

Lin Qishan specially greeted its arrival.

Slowly lowered from the van, the body was still covered with black cloth.

He lifted the car jacket with his own hands, revealing the true colors of this fierce bull.

Red body, black skirt, domineering.

Push open its iconic scissor doors, get into the small cockpit, and start the car - the powerful roar of the engine comes from behind.

"After all, the V12 sounds better!"

Lin Qishan was satisfied when he heard it.

Tap the accelerator to drive it away, go to refuel first.

Supercars have a characteristic, there is no idle speed, you have to step on the gas pedal to go, that's why when the car is moved, it is always buzzing, people who don't know think that you have to hit the gas pedal when moving the car, it's too pretentious force.

But in fact, they didn't idle!You can't move slowly with the brakes on like a civilian car. You can only step on the accelerator. If you can't control your feet, it's not uncommon to hit the wall at once.

Of course, on flat ground, the accelerator is still easy to control. Lin Qishan first filled up his fuel tank, and then he couldn't wait to drive on the road, looking for an open place to have fun.

Push down on the accelerator and pull the speed to [-] or [-]. Everyone can't help but turn their heads and pay attention to the sound of the roaring exhaust echoing in the whole street.

This is definitely the main fun of driving a supercar. The high-speed pitch is the meaning of its existence. Driving it in low-speed urban areas, with a sense of frustration and a stiff suspension, is really suffering.

After running wildly on the road for a while, the performance did not disappoint him at all. It has 50 horsepower more than ordinary bulls, and the ultimate weight loss is 50 kg. What it brings is a seemingly similar appearance, but the strength is very different!
His experience in running the track was enough for him to control the bull, and he even deliberately cornered and stepped on the accelerator to make it skid, constantly testing the wildness of the bull.

As long as the horsepower is strong enough, the four-wheel drive car can still skid. This is the reason why so many people who rent a car have accidents. If you don’t have a racing foundation to play supercars, you should just open the rookie mode obediently and let the electronic system protect you.

After enjoying the road for a long time, the adrenaline of excitement gradually subsided.

When this passionate feeling subsided, Lin Qishan began to experience its insufficiency.

The comfort is really bad, the small potholes on the road can make your butt hurt, and the vision is also very bad, all you can see are other people's car chassis.

If you see a Lamborghini owner sticking his head forward in front of the stop line at the red light, making it look like Brother Xueyou is making people eat shit, please don't be surprised. traffic light.

Lin Qishan is now in this embarrassing situation, parked in the first row at the intersection, the signal light is above his head, the sitting posture is too low and the front windshield has poor visibility, so he can't see the traffic lights above!
He has to stretch his head forward, his chin over the steering wheel, and then he can roll his eyes up to see if the green light is on... In the future, when driving this car, if the signal light is above his head but not on the opposite side, it will be embarrassing!
"What a crime!"

Lin Qishan couldn't stop complaining.

However, from the rearview mirror, through the pitifully small engine compartment, and saw that the car behind him was at least a safe distance away from him, he was not in a hurry, snatched or honked, and let him go first,

This kind of slot doesn't seem too important!
