On the fifth day of February 18th, Lu Yan drove out of Sanjiang City and took a flight from Bincheng directly back to Jinling.
For his father, he transferred 30 million first so that Lu Zhenshan could set up the framework of the real estate company and maintain the upfront expenses.
The rest is either a loan or Lu Yan can make additional payments.
Because in a few months, the advertising endorsement fees for the next year will be collected, which will be a cash income of more than 200 million!
Or he may participate in some variety shows and earn a lot of money.
However, his time is precious right now, and he doesn't have time to participate in any variety shows.
Even Mu Tianbo only met once, and when the matter was settled, Dad and Mu Tianbo were left to discuss it themselves.
But he wants to go back to Jinling and start up his chip company as soon as possible.
For long-term development considerations, the chip company must be placed under the name of China Technology.
Make money by selling mobile phones, and then spend money on research and development of chips, a virtuous cycle.
Otherwise, it would be a bit troublesome to use his own name to transfer the annual profits of China Technology to the chip company.
As for the mobile phone company, Lu Yan is the absolute majority shareholder and has given important opinions many times during the development of the company.
Several small shareholders, headed by Lin Bin, still very much approved of Lu Yan's proposal.
By the way, this group of people privately recalled some things since starting their business, and they themselves were a little puzzled.
It feels like Lu Yan has magic. No matter who has a disagreement with him, he can always be persuaded and everything makes sense.
However, there were indeed some differences at first, namely the dispute between "trade, industry and technology" and "technology, industry and trade".
To put it more simply, it is the dispute between Lenovo model and Huawei model.
Huawei in 2010 was far less powerful than it would be in the next few years, and there was no market for "trade, industry and technology" at all, but it was easily "unified" by Lu Yan.
Then everyone began to think about the name of the chip company, and eventually it was called "Kunlun". Naturally, they hoped that the chips designed by the company would stand proudly in the international market like the Kunlun Mountains.
On February 22, Kunlun Chip Co., Ltd., wholly owned by Shenzhou Technology Company, was established in a low-key manner in the Jinling High-tech Development Zone.
However, chip research and development cannot be carried out immediately.
The main reason is that there is a lack of people!
Lu Yan's strategy for this is to recruit people with high salaries and poach people with high salaries!
The first is to recruit high-paying graduates of microelectronics and other chip-related majors from prestigious universities such as Yangtze University, Huaqing University, and Peking University.
The second natural step is to poach people from internationally renowned chip manufacturers.
Such as Intel, Samsung Electronics, Texas Instruments, Huawei HiSilicon, etc.
Considering the dominance of those well-known manufacturers in the field of mobile phone related accessories.
Lu Yan didn't make any big splash about poaching people from companies like Intel and TI. Basically, it was just one or two people per family, and it didn't look that obvious.
Through the headhunting company and the network established while studying at the National Central University, I was introduced to senior engineers from these famous companies and invited them to have a chat, and then used the strategy of "stay with my friends" and "have a relationship with me".
Coupled with the slightly higher salary, poaching people is simply a win-win situation.
But when it comes to dealing with HiSilicon chips, I don't have such scruples.
In less than a month, eleven high-end talents were hired.
With so many high-end talents applying for resignation in a short period of time, Ms. He Tingfei, the head of HiSilicon, naturally sensed something was wrong.
As soon as I inquired in the industry, I learned that Shenzhou Technology Company has established a new company called Kunlun Chip and is recruiting people everywhere.
He Tingfei immediately asked someone to get Lu Yan's phone number, dialed it directly, and turned on the recording function at the same time.
"Hi, hello!"
"I am He Tingfei, Mr. Lu should know me!"
"I know, President He has always been a person I admire, but I've never had the chance to visit him!"
"Mr. Lu, you talk nice, but you secretly poach our company's talents. This is not very fair!"
Lu Yan smiled: "What President He said, I also want to do my best for domestic chip research and development! Looking at the domestic chip research and development, HiSilicon has a strong army and a large number of people, which is equivalent to the chip research and development industry.
Whampoa Military Academy!
My small workshop has just opened, please ask two people from your side to come over and support me!"
He Tingfei couldn't laugh or cry when she heard this. This was the first time she had seen such a rich and entrepreneurial boss!
Ah no, I should have heard it!
"Mr. Lu, if you want to poach our eleven senior engineers right now, that's too easy! Besides, when you signed the contract, there was a non-compete clause. If you do this, you will have to take legal action.
There’s a way!”
"I understand, I understand, but there is nothing we can do. The company has just opened and we are so short of people! To be honest, I even had the idea of asking you to work here before...!"
He Tingfei really didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and immediately hung up the phone.
After sitting in my office for a while, I first called people from the legal department and asked them to go to the court to apply for filing a case.
After thinking about it for a while, I called Ren Zhengqiu's number again. It happened to be not busy there, so he answered quickly.
After hearing what He Tingfei reported, Ren Zhengqiu was stunned for a moment.
Lu Yan is such a good guy. He doesn’t do well in mobile phones and group buying. He actually enters the chip field and poaches people to his advantage.
But then I thought about it again, there was nothing to say to the soldiers who were in an iron-clad camp and who were already determined to leave.
The key to the problem is to appease the company's people. Lu Yan also needs to find an opportunity to punish him a little, but he is not in a hurry.
Said: "You did the right thing, let the legal department apply for filing the case! Please give some comfort within the exception company! That guy is said to be amazing, I would like to meet him if I have the chance!"
"I understand, Mr. Ren!"
…
Let’s talk about Shenzhou Technology. In just over a month, it went from having only a few administrative staff to a R&D team of more than 100 people.
These people are not just a bunch of people, more than 20 of them are senior engineers recruited by Lu Yan from major chip companies around the world.
There are more than thirty people who are professionals with two or three years of work experience. The rest are fresh graduates recruited from prestigious universities such as Yangtze University, Huaqing University, and Peking University.
Although there are a lot of talents, Lin Bin and others feel a lot of pressure.
The salary of this scientific research team is more than 6 million yuan a month, and more than 70 million yuan a year, but it is only the employee salary, not counting the various materials, auxiliary tools, software, patents and other things needed for design and development.
This chip research and development is really not an ordinary expense!
"How much will it cost this year?"
In an office of Kunlun Chip Company, Lin Bin said with lingering fear.
In fact, the R&D team at China Technology also has a lot of personnel expenses every year.
However, mobile phone research and development can be monetized quickly. After a model is designed, tested, OEM produced and released, it can quickly bring in a steady stream of cash flow.
But chip research and development is different. When this company will have income, it has no idea at all!
