Global monopoly of technology

Chapter 32 Whether to go or stay

Luo Sheng decided to expand the company’s staff to about 100. Now there is enough funds, but it will not be wasted blindly. This money will be used as much as possible for the company’s development and growth. Now it is not necessary to use future financing to get more. Money also sells fewer shares.

In the afternoon, I found an office space and quickly signed a one-year contract in the building of the "Jinmao Building".

The 5A-level office is located in the city center and the surrounding environment has a complete set of medical, transportation, shopping and other facilities, covering an area of ​​about 800 square meters.

At 16:45 in the afternoon, the signing of the contract was completed with the owner. Next, Luo Sheng planned to move the office from the original studio into the Jinmao Building in three days.

Right now, at about 17 o'clock in the afternoon, Luo Shengzheng and Irene were waiting at a waiting station on the street. The office space was quickly finalized and they were ready to meet at Bluestar Technology Studio.

Luo Sheng smiled and said, "Our company now looks like a serious company."

Starting a business is really not easy. It's just hard work, and you have to fight with VCs. If you don't want VCs to die, you have to deal with them.

But doing things that interest me is tiring but also very fulfilling.

In terms of travel, Luo Sheng also wondered about the need to be equipped with a transportation tool. You have to wait for a while to do some things, which is too time-consuming. Fortunately, in the future, the company’s plates will be bigger and the time wasted will be enough to buy a few vehicles. It's a luxury car.

Sister Irene who was standing next to her suddenly said, "Brother Luo, it's almost time for dinner. Why don't we have a meal outside before going back."

After hearing this, Luo Sheng replied without thinking: "I'm not hungry."

Irene: "..."

Am I hungry?

The girl stomped her feet with anger in her heart.

...

After returning to the studio, Luo Sheng called Bai Lang, Feng Yi, Lu Siming, Su Yali, and the resentful Irene two sisters to the living room lounge, Luo Sheng looked around everyone.

"Everyone is a student at school, and there is a very important thing to discuss with you."

Everyone listened attentively. Luo Sheng paused for a moment and watched them sincerely and said: "I am really grateful to you for joining the team in the most difficult early stage of the company’s entrepreneurship. Your joining is for the Bluespace website and for the Bluestar. Technology has brought tremendous help. The company is now on the right track. Dayong and I have decided to drop out of school a long time ago, but you are still at school. Starting tomorrow, the company will move to Jinmao Building. For the five of you, you have to do something. The choice is whether to drop out of school and become a full-time entrepreneur like Xu Yong, or stay in school."

"If you choose to stay in school, I will pay each of you a cash remuneration of 280,000 yuan to thank you for your contribution at the beginning of the company’s business. This money is the amount after tax; if you choose to drop out of school, continue to stay. In the company and become a full-time professional, you don’t have the money, but each of you five will immediately get 270 options shares of the company. You definitely can’t spend so much money to buy these 270 shares, I can give you The exercise period of at least 10 years is a special treatment for the initial team."

After speaking, Luo Sheng looked at the four of Bai Lang and Feng Yi. As for sister Irene, this Luo Sheng had a little headache. This girl was chasing back in secret, and she just pretended to be a fool. The girl came back here. Along the way, the rather resentful eyes could still be felt.

At this time, the few of them calculated in their hearts, this may undoubtedly be a major life-changing choice, and they also calculated the value of the 270 shares.Following the pre-A round of financing and the completion of this round of capital increase and share expansion, Bluestar Technology’s shares have increased to 220,000 shares, which means that the current valuation of each share is 5,000 yuan, and 270 shares are 1.35 million yuan.

This is an option stock that needs money to be bought, and it will cost 1.35 million to buy it.

In the future, the company will develop and grow, and even if it succeeds in IPO in the future, the value will be higher. The future of these 270 shares is not a dream, and even higher is not impossible. The greater the contribution, there will be higher option rewards. Everything is possible.

Feng Yi and the others couldn't help but thump at the thought of these.

"I am willing to stay in the company."

At this moment, Irene smiled and made the decision first.

"I also dropped out of school!"

"I continue to stay in the company."

"Same, I believe that following the boss can make a big career."

"No more, drop out of school!"

Soon, everyone quickly made a decision, and no one chose to stay in school.

Luo Sheng still looked at them solemnly: "Of course I am super happy to be able to stay, but as your leader, I need to be responsible to you. Don't make a hasty decision. This decision may have a huge impact on your future life. Impact, the company’s current development momentum is very good, and I also believe that it will succeed in the future, but we don’t know what will happen in the future. IT Internet is an industry that changes drastically every day or even every month."

Whether Bai Lang and Feng Yi are excellent or not is still not completely clear. If they are simply measured by their current abilities, Bai Lang and Lu Siming can only be regarded as excellent programmers at best. Take 1 The monthly salary of ten thousand yuan is the highest, and Su Yali is the same.

But they are all so young, and it's really hard to say what their future achievements will be.

Young is the greatest capital. As long as you work hard, you will surely grow.

Feng Yi is pretty good.

However, Luo Sheng still reserved shares from the option pool and allocated 270 shares to each of them because they were the initial team members of Bluestar Technology. Without them, the company would not be able to operate as well in the early stages of development. As a result, Luo Sheng has a greater say in negotiations with VCs, because the company has developed well in the early stage and has a high valuation.

On the contrary, the valuation will inevitably decrease, and it is also possible that the transfer of equity after obtaining the investment may be 10% or more.

This time, Luo Sheng only allocated shares for Bai Lang and Feng Yi and the initial team members. This was also the decision after consulting with Qin Weimu and asking her to help with analysis.

Lu Siming said firmly: "Boss, I have already thought about it. This is my decision and I am willing to take potential risks for this."

Others also nodded their heads to indicate the resolution. They are all 18 years of age. They made it clear again. Of course, Luo Sheng would not say more, and smiled: "This will be the wisest decision in your life, trust me. "

Everyone believed his words inexplicably, and nodded heavily.

After finalizing the problems of their students at school, everyone returned to their jobs.

In the next three days, the company began an orderly relocation.

From the birth of the 407 dormitory, to moving into this studio, and now to the commercial office building of Jinmao Building.

The relocation of the company's office also symbolizes and witnesses the development and growth of this startup company from scratch.

...

Three days later, Jinmao Building.

Early this morning, Luo Sheng took the last group of people from the company to the new office. Today the company has completed all the relocation work.

There are several companies on the floor, two of which are also Internet companies, one is a game company, and one is an animation company.

They already knew that a new company had moved next door, and they were all very curious when they saw all the faces of college students.

"Which company is the next door? How come they are all student faces?"

"Bluestar Technology Corporation."

"Bluestar Technology? A technology company?"

"You don’t even know about Internet technology companies and Bluestar Technology. It seems that your brain needs to be updated. Don’t look down upon them as college students. I’ll tell you that the Internet industry has become lively recently, and Bluestar Technology is even more recent. The focus of world news, the Blue Space social networking site was developed by this company. This is currently the hottest social networking site on the Internet. Almost all college students are using it. Guess how much this company is valued?"

"How many?"

"1.1 billion, yes, you heard it right, it is 1.1 billion, which is the news that came out a few days ago. I have been in the industry for a long time. If you don't believe me, you can go to Google."

"My God, the valuation is 1.1 billion??"

"This is not the most exaggerated. According to media reports, several VCs jointly invested 77 million yuan during the pre-A round of financing and only got 7% ​​of the equity."

"Several VCs in the pre-A round of financing only get 7% of the total? Are their brains pretty funny? Or is there nowhere to spend more money?"

"Who knows..."

Employees of several companies next door were chatting and talking, but Luo Sheng didn't know and didn't care.

"Wow~~ This is where we will work from now on?"

Sister Irene looked around the office space and couldn't help but shine.

After entering the office space, the team members who came for the first time were all curious to walk around the office lobby, and some also went to the window sill to look out, with a good view, and a clear view of Shanghai.

The team members are very satisfied with the new office environment. Frankly speaking, everyone was embarrassed to tell their friends about their work before, but now it’s different. At least they work in Jinmao Building, and they are all decent.

Everyone walked around and looked around. Luo Sheng immediately came to his CEO's office. Now there is an independent office, the space has been expanded, and there are several independent offices. For example, Qin Weimu, as the company's CLO, also has an independent office. Office.

The desk is equipped with an LCD monitor, which is still very backward for Luo Sheng.

Bluestar Technology has also ushered in a new stage of development.
