Chapter 042 [Cross-border? Establish a second wholly-owned company? 】
Luo Sheng looked at him in the quiet office, and Erin stared straight into his eyes. After a moment, Luo Sheng looked away first, looked away from his eyes, and glanced at his round buttocks.
Luo Sheng: "As you wish!"
After saying that, he took action and suddenly a palm technique that fell into the sky came.
Erin: "Yes"
"Okay, I'll give you a reply."
Erin smiled playfully, threw a charming look and turned gracefully toward the office door.
Luo Sheng didn't expect that she, a little girl, could still have such a wild side. No wonder her eyes were blue. I remember that one time she talked about her grandmother from Europe and had a quarter of her bloodline.
After the episode, Luo Sheng also put aside these thoughts and devoted himself to his work. There is time to explore in the future, and maybe this girl will have more hidden attributes.
The next day.
Luo Sheng received the six-year salary paid to him in advance by the company's finances, a total of 90,000 yuan. Every expense of the company must pass the audit verification, but in fact, the one who got less than 80,000 yuan, which is the personal disposable wealth after tax.
He rented a house in a community, not far from his office location.
Luo Sheng drove the company's business special car when commuting to and from work. After getting the financing, he also had a dedicated transportation tool. It is not a very luxurious car. He is currently expanding his enrollment. There is no special car driver now, so he can only drive by himself. Fortunately, he has obtained a driver's license.
The residence of Luo Sheng in the community where he lives is in the fifth building in the community, with more than 20 floors. There are three houses on each floor. The house number of Luo Sheng lives is 5 Buildings 3a, and he lives on the third floor.
Not long after he came back from get off work that day, Luo Sheng received a call notification that the grand piano he ordered had been delivered, and it cost 48,000 yuan. It was not super expensive, but the price was not cheap anymore. He had more than half of his salary in half a year.
At this moment, Luo Sheng sat alone in the living room thinking about the company, and soon heard a knock on the door.
When I went to open the door, I saw five or six people at the door, and there was a grand piano.
The staff moved the piano into the house. The house was divided into three bedrooms and two living rooms, divided into a large living room and a small living room. Several staff members placed the piano in the large living room according to Luo Sheng's request, and then left one after another, leaving two men, one of whom was a piano tuner.
Half an hour later, after completing all the debugging and confirming that there was no problem, Luo Sheng completed the signing of the contract, and the two men also said goodbye and left.
This kind of life was a habit that Luo Sheng developed in his previous life. He focused at work, and when he had time, he would play the piano and play capsized boats or enjoy the outdoor life.
...
As time passed day by day, it soon entered late August, and Bluestar Technology also developed rapidly in an orderly and orderly manner under his management.
The company's scale has expanded by 137 people so far, the development of the message flow project has been completed by 90%, the product has been initially formed, and internal testing has begun.
These two months are also two months when the number of users of Blue Space websites surged. After receiving the pre-a round of financing, Luo Sheng was not stingy when he had money. He spent more than 55 million in just two months. Such a big splurge was for the expansion of Blue Space and seized user resources with his main competitor Renren. This money was mainly used to open up the markets of neighboring countries.
In addition, the increase in the number of users has brought about server expansion and bandwidth costs, and paying high network fees to operators has become a major operating expense.
The Blue Space website has been launched on foreign university campuses in the past two months, and so far it has been successfully launched at 42 overseas universities.
However, the focus of development is still at home, but Luo Sheng is very clear that his greatest potential is still abroad. Since the beginning of his company, his eyes have been on the world.
The product "going to sea" is also due to the country's entry into the WTO. Americans are now very confident, so they are still very "tolerant". This is a factor that the blue space goes out to sea without being stucked. In addition, the United States is not focusing on the East at all, but is forcing "Silly Damu" and "Deng Ge", and their eyes are all focused on the Middle East world.
On the morning of August 27, Bluestar Technology officially announced that the number of users registered by its Blue Space website reached a new high, reaching 87 million, with 51.5 million active users, accounting for about 58.8% of the market share.
Bluestar Technology was founded half a year ago, and its Blue Space website was also born half a year ago. In just half a year, the number of user registrations has reached more than 80 million.
The purpose of publishing this data is naturally to give investors confidence and to get more investment in the future.
The entire capital circle is excited by it, and Blue Space has become a new trend in the industry, and its attention is getting higher and higher.
When people think that what the Internet can do is basically done, Blue Space appears and rises at a shocking speed. Blue Star Technology has become a rising rookie in the Internet industry, and Luo Sheng's name has been frequently mentioned in the industry.
His rise is also very topical. The popular Blue Space social networking website is the work of a team of college students. Now, at the age of 19, his net worth is worth over 100 million. It is very popular. The media naturally likes to report and even reports Luo Sheng’s personal stories more frequently than the social networking websites he created.
The media knew that the people preferred Luo Sheng’s personal rise, so they naturally hyped up this topic.
The outside world's pursuit made the company's team very excited, and many people were a little arrogant. However, Luo Sheng was not influenced by the media reports, but was still urging team members.
He is very clear that the number of users registered by the website exceeding 80 million is far from being successful. When will it become an oligarch in the industry and occupy more than 80% of the market share, it can be called successful.
Moreover, the domestic economic environment is a practical problem. There are also 80 million users. If there are 80 million users in North America, the potential commercial value of each user may be ten times higher. There is no way, the consumption level in developed countries is there.
...
This morning, Luo Sheng came to work at the company and was sitting in the CEO office and thinking about it all the time. These days he was almost thinking about the future.
The industry, including several major investors, positioned him as an entrepreneur in the Internet industry, but Luo Sheng himself does not think so. Bluestar Technology cannot be just an Internet company.
We also need to get involved in hardware technology.
Luo Sheng observed the world and the direction of technology in this era. Although there is still no concept of mobile Internet, or even in its infancy, he can strongly feel that it is about to break out of the ground.
Luo Sheng doesn't want to miss this trend, but it's not easy to get involved in hardware technology. The arrival of mobile Internet is only in recent years, and he has no foundation, so he can only make arrangements in advance.
Thinking of this, Luo Sheng couldn't help but nodded secretly, but a new question arises, how to raise money and play hardware development, and if you want to make a name for yourself, you must not only hurry up, but also have enough financial resources to burn to make a living.
At the current development speed that no one in the industry can match, Luo Sheng can allocate some funds from the finances for hardware research and development, and he doesn't have to doubt that once hardware is crossed from the Internet, investors will definitely oppose it fiercely, and subsequent financing will be basically slim.
Although the money has been invested and investors cannot manage it, the VC can stop investing money in the future, and it is just a bad debt. The surge in users in Blue Space and the increase in operating costs will definitely require a lot of capital financing.
In fact, this is not a real headache about Luo Sheng. What is really troublesome is how to raise R&D capital while dividing less profits. In the future, the VC will only pay for nothing. Bluestar Technology on the Internet will be enough for them to make a lot of money. If they are sharing hardware technology.
Too many!
What is troublesome is how to raise this money. You must not take the money from Blue Star Technology, otherwise you will have to share the profits more. If you use Blue Star Technology's assets to do other things, it is the crime of embezzling company assets.
Luo Shengsi thought about it and found that what he could take out is the equity of Blue Star Technology. After the pre-a round of financing, he currently holds about 72.7% of Blue Star Technology's equity, and can only transfer part of the equity to raise startup funds and establish another wholly-owned technology company with 100% ownership in hardware technology research and development.
Moreover, this company is undoubtedly a real black technology company. The technology products it develops must be at least five years ahead of the world. Luo Sheng decided to follow the path of "Share" and choose not to go public or raise funds from the outside.
It is worth mentioning that transfer of equity and financing are two concepts. When the overall equity remains unchanged, the original shareholder transfers his shares to others, so that others can obtain shareholder rights. This does not involve increasing the company's capital, but changes have occurred in the company's shareholders.
Simply put, Luo Sheng sold part of his equity, and the funds obtained by selling it were his personal property, not the company's money.
After thinking about it for a while, Luo Sheng temporarily put these ideas in his mind. It is too early to do so. At least he doesn’t have to consider it this year. He mainly devotes himself to Bluestar Technology and improves the company’s valuation. At that time, transfer equity to cash out can obtain more funds with less equity transfer.
Chapter completed!
