Chapter 304: Your heart is as swollen as your body
After discussing a few more issues, the meeting came to an end, and Wu Hao immediately raised the last topic.
"As you all know, with the booming sales of our smart voice products, we currently have more than 70 million users. So a while ago someone asked me to strengthen the construction of content, and I have been thinking about this for a long time.
We didn’t create content before, mainly because our power was relatively small and we didn’t have so much energy. Moreover, we had to connect and cooperate with other applications, so we didn’t stimulate them.
Now that the number of users is large, we cannot give up such a huge market. In addition, this is also related to the promotion of our next-generation products. Only rich content can attract consumers to choose our products.
So I decided to start a content construction project and strive to establish and improve a team capable of content operation as soon as possible."
Hearing what he said, Zou Xiaodong was a little worried and said: "We are a technology company, so the content aspect is a little unprofessional. And as you just said, will it stimulate the applications that we have already cooperated with?"
Operator."
"What does it mean to not do your job properly? Look at H, corn, and fruit, which one has not produced its own content. It would be a pity to give up such a large piece of cake. As for those application operators, there is no need to worry at all. So-called
Today is different from the past. As our user base grows, they will actively seek cooperation with us." Zhang Jun shook his head.
"I have thought about what you two said, so after some thinking, I have some ideas."
Wu Hao looked at a few people and said, "I was a little hesitant about this matter originally, but Lin Wei gave me some ideas."
"Lin Wei?" the three of them asked in confusion. They all knew that Lin Wei was his girlfriend, but they were just wondering what this idea was and what it had to do with this project.
"Yes, it's Lin Wei."
Wu Hao nodded and said: "Don't underestimate her, she is also an MBA from Oxford Business School in Yingguo. This is much more valuable than the messy degrees from other universities.
Moreover, her parents are also very famous entrepreneurs in Anxi, so she has been very talented in this area since she was a child.
After returning from studying abroad last year, her parents hoped that she could help them. But Lin Wei was a little reluctant, so she stayed idle, and then she got to know me."
Hahahaha... Several people gave him an "I understand" look when they heard this. As for Zhang Xiaolei, who was recording, she glanced at him and then showed a complicated look.
Wu Hao smiled awkwardly, then distributed cigarettes to everyone, and lit a cigarette himself: "I don't know where this girl has been recently, and she suddenly told me that she wanted to start a business.
I advised her not to start a business, but to come directly to our company. Anyway, we lack high-quality management talents in this area, and she can help us if she comes.
But they didn’t want to, saying they didn’t want to work for me and insisted on starting a business.”
Wu Hao smiled bitterly and said, "I couldn't be persuaded, so I agreed. Then she took out a relevant business plan and asked me to give my opinion.
I took her plan and looked through it, and found that it was pretty good, very detailed, and it was about culture and media.
While discussing and communicating with her, I suddenly remembered that someone had suggested to me to strengthen the content construction a few days ago.
So I extended an invitation to her again, and told her directly not to start a business, but to help me, and I would leave all the company content matters to you.
But in the end, I still refused.”
Wu Hao looked at everyone and said: "But I think this is an opportunity and she is a more suitable candidate, so I continued to persuade her.
After persuading, we also changed some methods. As Dongzi said just now, we are a technology company, and we are not doing our job properly in terms of content.
So I thought of simply taking the content aspect out of the company and running it independently.”
"You mean to set up a subsidiary?" Zhang Jun's eyes lit up and he asked.
Wu Hao smiled and shook his head: "It's not a subsidiary, but a holding company.
As the saying goes, eggs cannot be put in the same basket. As far as we are concerned, the industry is too concentrated and single. If there is any trouble, we will all be passive.
So I decided to change this company into a company jointly held by our company, individuals, and Lin Wei.
Of course, the company and we hold the largest shareholdings, accounting for about 70%, and Lin Wei’s holds about 30%.
Except for Lin Wei's about 30% of the shares, the remaining 70% or so is just a transfer of money from the left pocket to the right pocket. There is no change, it's just a change of name.
And Lin Wei's 30% was not given to her in vain. She had to use a sum of money to invest, and this was also an incentive for her.
If you want a horse to run, you have to let it eat grass first, right?"
"I have no objection. Lin Wei can be considered one of our own. It's more secure to leave it to her than to those people who have been poached." Zhang Jun nodded first. Wu Hao, the four of them, held the largest shareholding, so the plan he proposed
, what other opinions can others have?
Zou Xiaodong thought for a while, and then said: "You just said it was a company, we personally, and Lin Wei jointly funded it.
But among us, except for you, we have all used up our money to buy a house and a car, and we still owe you money that we haven’t paid back."
Wu Hao smiled and waved his hands and said: "I have considered this matter, so I plan to lend you a sum of money in the name of the company and repay it when dividends are distributed in the future.
One year cannot be exchanged for two years, and two years cannot be exchanged for three years. Anyway, if I give you so much money at once, you won’t be able to use it, so just treat it as an early investment.”
"No, we are actually quite short of money, so why can't we pay more dividends?" Zhang Jun said with a sad face.
Wu Hao said angrily: "The dividends of several million every year are not enough for you. As your body swells, so does your heart."
Hehehe... Zhang Jun, Zou Xiaodong, and Zhang Xiaolei, who was taking notes, all looked at Zhang Jun and then laughed.
"Why are you laughing? It's just a few kilograms of meat, what's wrong!" Zhang Jun's old face turned red and he pretended to be angry.
Ha ha……
After a few words of banter, Wu Hao put away his smile and explained to everyone: "Our revenue this year is good, but you also know that our actions this year are relatively big. First we acquired so many factories, and then this new one
In headquarters construction projects, there are many places to spend money.
So I ask everyone to bear with me, this is also for the development of the company."
Hearing his explanation, the three of them all shook their heads. Zhang Jun's words before were just a joke, and they all understood the truth. So when they saw Wu Hao's explanation, the three of them also shook their heads to express their understanding.
