Chapter 337 Everything is possible for all comrades and book lovers
I’d like to add more updates for all the comrades who give tips and book friends who read. I have not forgotten you, and I sincerely thank you.
The reason why he was holding on to William so hard was because Brian knew very well that William was a super genius who could develop artificial intelligence on his own. He must have some inventions in his head that were promising but not very profitable and very troublesome to manage.
William didn't care about these small inventions and looked down on them, but it was different if they were left to this group of people. Even if the company's future market value was only a few hundred million or more than a billion dollars, once it went public, they would immediately stop doing the dirty work. A hard-working man became a director of a listed company. This change in status attracted Brian even more than William asking him to run for Congress.
No one will fight for money. To put it bluntly, congressmen are collaborators who serve interest groups. What's more, some congressmen are the spokespersons of interest groups.
Brian, who is over 50 and has been a thug for half his life, still knows the difference between being a spokesperson or being a master.
So Brian was anxious and excited when William replied. After waiting for a few minutes, William finally said, "Then let's use the USB flash drive project to test your ability. Man, managing a company is different from protecting people and killing people. You If you can let me see your management ability, cooperation is not impossible."
Brian suppressed his excitement and said calmly, "How about the name of the company is Devon Hill Technology, boss?"
Upon hearing this name, William couldn't help but roll his eyes. This old guy, Brian, is indeed an old ghost who has been around for decades. Calling Devon Hill Technology is not only flattering William, but also taking advantage of William's name. Build the company's reputation.
However, 75% of the shares were just in line with William's inner expectations. If he really asked him to speak on his own, William believed that even if he asked for 90%, Brian and others would have to agree. Without his participation, this company would not be established.
Now it seems that giving Brian 5 people 25% of the shares is a lot, but if you don't give your subordinates more hope during the entrepreneurial period, no one will work hard. He does not lack technology or funds now, but he lacks people who can trust him. , and this somewhat childlike company is not William’s main business, and he will not put too much energy into this company.
If the company develops, once Brian and the others are not capable enough, William will start a financing plan. With 75% of the absolute controlling rights, he will use the advantage of capital to bring more suitable managers into the company, while keeping 75% of his shares. Dilute the shares of several people in Bryan.
"The capital required to establish the new company is US$100 million. Can the five of you come up with US$25 million?"
"Hehe, boss, let alone 25 million, we can take out even 100 million now," Brian said with a crooked smile.
"fk" William looked at Brian in surprise, "How come I didn't know you were so rich?"
"Boss, we, Barney and Felix followed your advice and established a company in Switzerland. My team has 5 people, Barney and the others have 6, Felix and ten traders, a total of 22 people, and the money in hand The total amount has exceeded 200 million US dollars. In addition to the 100 million US dollars to build the ski resort you mentioned, there is still more than 100 million US dollars on hand with no place to invest.
I don’t plan to involve our team in the company that is cooperating with you this time, but to cooperate with you in the name of a Swiss company.”
"You are really loyal." William looked at Brian with some admiration, with wrinkles appearing on his face when he smiled. It was really not difficult for 22 people to come up with 200 million US dollars.
After so many cooperations, William made more than 5 billion U.S. dollars in the stock market, and his 22 people were able to share more than 200 million U.S. dollars.
The ratio of 2.5% is not high, but William does not feel guilty. If he thinks the commission is low, then get out. There are many people who desperately want to join but have no chance.
However, William shook his head without thinking for a while, "Too many people will be very troublesome in the future, and I don't want those traders from the Swiss National Bank to come into contact with my company. After all, they are still people from the National Bank.
Barney and the other six are different from you. They are pure mercenaries. Unless they want to retire, joining the company as shareholders will not do us any good. It may be a worse decision for them, or let the death squads be pure."
"Okay, that leaves Felix. Do you want him to be the executive officer of our company?" Brian said.
"It's too early to say this now, Brian," William smiled and shook his head, "Let him invest money first, give him some shares, and if the company can develop in your hands, let Felix be a
Financial Officer".
"Understood" Brian nodded.
"However, I have to make something clear to you first. If your management level cannot keep up with the company's development progress in the future, I will consider finding someone to take over your position," William said with a smile.
"Haha, don't worry, boss, I won't have trouble with money. If the company can't develop better in my hands, I will abdicate myself and make way for others. After all, I am also a person with shares."
William nodded with satisfaction, but he would not believe Brian just after hearing a few good words from him. Everything depends on the results, and if you have mistakes, you will be punished, and if you have merit, you will of course be rewarded.
"That's good. I'm more optimistic about you at the initial stage. If you can take the company to the market, then once it is listed, I will privately give you 3% of the company's shares as a reward. Maybe in ten years, these 3% of the shares will be worth 3
Billions of dollars”.
"God, if you add other shares, wouldn't I be able to become a billionaire?" Brian shook his head and said, "I would be satisfied if I could become a billionaire."
"No", William stared into Brian's eyes and said, "From the time you encouraged me to set up Devon Hill Technology Company with you, you were already a billionaire. Brian, everyone in your team will become rich people in the future.
, but it’s up to you whether you can keep up with the company’s pace. Maybe in the future you can also dream of becoming a parliamentarian or the head of the department you used to work for.”
William shook his finger, "Everything is possible."
"Boss, this is impossible." Brian was almost stunned by William's words. "It's already a miracle that I can become a member of Parliament in my lifetime. My past experience is my biggest stain. It's impossible."
.
"Who knows, nine months ago I was a college student who had to work nights for dozens of pounds so that my mother could work less hard. But now,
Half a year ago, you were just an unemployed old guy who retired for the sake of your daughter. When buying gifts for your daughter, you could only buy an outdated stereo that cost more than 100 US dollars, but now."
William's words made Brian's smile wrinkle together.
"You are now much richer than your ex-wife's husband, right?"
"Haha, almost, almost," Brian said modestly.
Seeing the teasing look on William's face, Brian immediately remembered that William had encouraged him to take back his ex-wife. He quickly changed the subject and said, "How about Sam and I go to China to negotiate with that company tomorrow?"
"Whatever, I just want the result of this kind of thing. When will you conclude the negotiation and when will the new company be established? But during the negotiation, you can use it as a condition for helping them apply for a patent. If necessary, you can use my name.
