Chapter 225: Option Pool Shares Are Really Good
On August 8, in a large conference room of an office building in Zhongguancun, Wang Chengguang looked at a team led by two second-level professors and composed of a large number of doctoral students, graduate students and undergraduates majoring in LCD display and optoelectronic technology, and said with a smile, "Everyone, welcome to join Spark Mobile. Starting from the mobile phone screen, Spark will work with you together."
"I won't say much about the salary and benefits. It is definitely comparable to the big departments like Xinghuo Weibo and WeChat. The lowest is higher than the average salary of Beijing employees."
"However, in terms of technological breakthroughs, the 10% to 15% option pool shares reserved for Spark Mobile in the future still require the joint efforts of experts like the two professors."
"Of course, mobile phone manufacturing is a big project. Just a screen is full of countless problems waiting to be solved. In the future, once our research center conquers the market and seizes the high ground, and grabs a large share of the mobile phone screen market, the individual screen can also be put on the market."
“I hope everyone can truly integrate into our team.”
As his words spread across the conference room, the two second-level professors took the lead in applauding, and more and more people with master's and doctoral degrees, including undergraduates, also applauded excitedly.
Everyone who knows knows that Mr. Wang has truly achieved the goal of letting the rich lead the poor, and the treatment he provides is absolutely first-class in the country.
Nowadays, as long as your boss sincerely gives you money and various benefits, top students will work hard and be motivated.
The newly established Spark Mobile Screen Research Center was established as part of the process of Samsung's first- and second-tier screen manufacturing equipment, raw materials, etc. being transferred to Zhengzhou, and the research center followed along and learned from Samsung's people.
Then I developed my own product based on this.
By the time Wang Chengguang left the building, the professors had already taken the lead in holding various group meetings with the finished Samsung screens.
Wang Manni drove over to the parking lot outside the building and said with a smile, "Xu Hongdou and the others have arrived in Shandong Province. Do you want to go there and cheer them on?"
已经8月份了,8月6号是全国田径锦标赛和亚运会选拔赛,许红豆三人自然是都报了女子100和200米。
Wang Chengguang shook his head. "I won't go. That's Shandong Province. Xu Hongdou is from Shandong Province. If she goes back to her hometown to participate in the Asian Games selection, I guess many leaders in Zibo will go there to cheer her up."
Isn't it true? A sports superstar from Shandong Province, a female sprinter, returns to her hometown to compete. Her popularity and treatment are absolutely at the highest level.
Besides, the Spark Group, including the security, assistants, coaches and logistics teams assigned to them by Beijing University of Architecture and Beijing International Studies University, also has a large number of people.
Wang Chengguang was only responsible for preparing for them the nourishing medicinal cakes and drinks that had been prepared in advance for long-term storage.
This stage was still the period when Jack Ma's Ele.me and Adong's JD Running Errands were booming in the market. Two months later, Ele.me had 400 million registered consumer users and JD Running Errands had more than million.
Because the national championship was held in Shandong Province, Adong was busy there with his sales team. Each game boosted the popularity of JD Running Errands in Shandong Province, which was absolutely a hit.
At this stage, Xu Hongdou is the biggest business card of Shandong Province!
This is a sprinter who has run well in major competitions and is recognized by the country, qualifying to stand in the Olympic 100-meter final.
Her popularity in Shandong province is almost enough to overwhelm Liu Feiren at his peak. As long as Xu Hongdou doesn't fail in this championship and the Asian Games trials, she will definitely be invincible.
This is true.
8 month 6 number.
On the 100-meter track, Zhu Suosuo won her fourth gold medal in her career with a time of 11.15 seconds, and Xu Hongdou followed closely behind with a silver medal in 11.17 seconds. Even the lesser-known Jiang Nansun officially broke through the 11-second mark, running a good time of 11.92 seconds.
Although Jiang Nansun still failed to get a card.
However, in the subsequent 200-meter track, the three women won gold, silver and bronze medals respectively, and there was no suspense at all in the Asian Games qualifying.
After nourishing himself with medicinal food and getting rid of his injuries, Xiao Su from eastern Guangdong won the gold medal in the men's 100-meter track.
In the field of men's and women's track and field sprinting, so many people have risen together and have achieved results that have dominated Asia, which has made netizens on the Internet very happy. Topics and news about these sports superstars dominated the hot searches for several days.
By the way, the Guangzhou Asian Games, which was held in November, was also very popular.
What everyone is discussing now is how many people Zhu Suosuo, Xu Hongdou, Yuedong Xiaosu and others have defeated in domestic track and field competitions. In November, there will be a chance to defeat Asia, and athletes from Taiwan, South Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and other places who dominate the world are mentally devastated.
Once the heat gets going, there's no stopping it.
This was during the summer vacation, and Ele.me and JD.com's user base soared again.
…………
On August 8, when Wang Chengguang returned to Beijing from Zhengzhou, the mobile phone screen factory in his hometown had already started production. The technical team sent by South Korea and the researchers from the screen research center worked together, and the efficiency was really good.
When Wang Chengguang arrived at the Guomao headquarters, he saw Jiang Nansun still chatting with Nancy at the front desk. He immediately asked curiously, "Today is Monday. No, you have been on summer vacation for a long time... You are not going to live in the company for the whole summer vacation, are you?"
Jiang Nansun nodded, "Boss Wang, I renovated the office and it's very useful. If you don't believe me, go and have a look. By the way, Suosuo introduced a dozen female friends to her cousin Luo Jiaming. He rejected them all before, but this time he finally found someone he liked."
"She is a beautiful, rich girl. She asked me to ask if she is a good person or not."
Wu Xiaowei had formally talked to her before, saying that her uncle's family never owed her anything, so she shouldn't be so ungrateful.
Now Zhu Suosuo's second house in her life was given to her uncle. Although her uncle didn't want it, he still insisted on giving it to her and then introduced it to Luo Jiaming...
Wang Chengguang nodded, "As long as it's something we both want, it's definitely a good thing."
This kind of thing is like Zhang Dalong's identity as his cousin was exposed... Zhu Suosuo has completely risen to prominence and earns 10 million yuan a year from commercial performances and endorsements.
This kind of wealth-creating efficiency will allow her relatives to profit greatly as well. Luo Jiaming is not ugly, she is only 1.8 meters tall, but she is a bit of a tech nerd and a professional programmer.
Ordinary rich and beautiful girls would also take the initiative to look for Luo Jiaming's various advantages just for a big platform like Zhu Suosuo.
After a brief exchange of words, he returned to the president's office to handle official business. More than an hour later, after the official business was sorted out, Wang Chengguang started to study mathematics.
Another half month has passed. Mathematics, excellent, (147/1000). This world of big cheats is really too happy. It’s nothing more than the teaching assistant Mr. Guo who often communicates with him online...
Every time I meet him in real life, I am full of desire to complain, but he is the richest man in mainland China, so Mr. Guo doesn't dare to complain much.
Now he is a counselor in the Department of Mathematics at Peking University. At least he is able to deal with undergraduates well and no big problems will occur.
The three five-year plans were launched one and a half months ago, and the basic situation is very stable. When he officially stated many times that Spark WeChat would go public for financing, 10% of the option pool shares would be distributed to the contributing teams. Based on the market value of 200 billion, that would be billion.
How many people always carry sleeping bags or camp beds to live in the company? !
If your boss gives you 2 a month and lets you work like a slave for 24 hours, the workers will definitely despise you and even spit on you. If you are paid 2 or 20 a month...
Option pool shares are really good! !
The same mentality applies to other payment and Weibo-related matters.
………………
Time flies, October 10th, Double Ninth Festival.
Wang Chengguang was still working on his seedlings early in the morning when he heard all kinds of phone ringtones, text message alerts, etc.
He was too lazy to be distracted. He knew that the Forbes Rich List of the new year would be announced at 8 a.m., while in the past the lists were always announced at the end of October or November.
The choice of the Double Ninth Festival this year was also due to certain commercial considerations. For example, Pony Ma of Big Penguin has been planning for a very long time and chose to launch the mobile penguin at 10 o'clock in the evening of the Double Ninth Festival to give out million cash red envelopes and billion shopping cards as welfare for the whole people.
This is mainly promoting mobile penguin, penguin wallet and Tenpay payment.
They didn't catch up during the Spring Festival last year. Just in the first half of the year, they had sorted out the framework of how to ensure absolute security, and then binding bank cards became a new trend.
Xiao Ma also had to go to the bank. After running around and finally getting a lot of things done, the news of QR code payment came out...
Pony Ma copied and changed things all the way, and it was only until now that he was able to make the mobile penguin come with a wallet, red envelopes, card binding, QR code scanning, and more after updating the version.
Otherwise, he still wanted to launch these during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
In this case, Wang Chengguang became the richest man in mainland China in the new year's ranking, and he is also one of the major shareholders of Penguin. Obviously, he played a great role in promoting a series of reckless bank card behaviors of Penguin Mobile.
Wang Chengguang was of course willing to cooperate. His family held 14.6% of Penguin, and with the South African newspaper business involved, there were so many things involved.
Besides, Pony Ma is also willing to invest in Spark Mobile, maintain his 11.5% stake, and continue to fight for the mobile phone business. Interaction with such partners is a win-win situation for all.
Dozens of minutes later, when he looked at Wu Xiaowei and Gu Jingjing who were browsing their phones at the dining table, and saw the two women eating melons and talking excitedly, Wang Chengguang was speechless and said, "Isn't this something we have known for a long time? Why are you so excited?"
Wu Xiaowei said happily, "Of course I'm excited. Being publicly recognized as the richest man, just sitting in this position is exciting."
In this year's ranking, Wang Chengguang ranked first with a net worth of 972 billion yuan, followed by Mr. Zong of Wahaha with 534 billion yuan, Mr. Li of Baidu ranked third with 480 billion yuan, and Pony Ma ranked fourth with assets of more than 460 billion yuan.
Originally, Pony Ma ranked ninth this year with assets of 294 billion, but Penguin has already acquired Zhifubao and Taobao, so naturally his assets have skyrocketed.
The top five richest people include three Internet tycoons...
This has caused a bit of a mushroom shock to the entire network.
Gu Jingjing was scrolling through Weibo and smiled, "Brother Guang, many netizens have started calling you Dr. Wang. I want you to come out and explain whether you have transferred assets and found someone to hold them on your behalf. Your net worth of 972 billion is a bit too low."
"Many people say that the market value of Big Penguin is now striving to reach 5000 billion Hong Kong dollars. Not to mention how much your holdings of Big Penguin are worth, the overall market value of Spark WeChat is definitely higher than that of Big Penguin."
Wang Chengguang laughed and said, "Please post a Weibo for me, saying that the investment in Spark phones is too high. Pony Ma, Lei Jun and I are planning to implement a super loss-making plan. If we sell 1000 million phones, our group will lose 80 billion."
"This is just a simple book loss. Add in other R&D investments, and the overall loss will be even greater. It won't be long before I, the richest man, lose all my money."
"Moreover, selling mobile phones at a loss is not vicious competition, but the characteristic of Internet companies burning money, and it is the platform expansion of platforms such as Xinghuo Weibo and Xinghuo WeChat that sinks into mobile phone products."
“I hope everyone can use a cheap and easy-to-use mobile phone.”
It is already October 10th, and Xinghuo's entire mobile phone assembly plant in Zhengzhou has already gone into production. Even the production workshops for chargers, charging cables, earphones, etc. have already exceeded their production capacity and stockpiled goods.
The chips, cameras, memory, headphones, screens, etc. that Lei Jun bought back have a total price of about 2500 yuan, and the assembly production line is also being debugged and operated.
All we can say is that this Spark smartphone, which is scheduled to retail for 1900 yuan, is more user-friendly and higher in quality than the 2880 yuan version of the Meizu phone. After all, the Meizu M8 phone has made considerable profits.
It is more beautiful and has launched Spark OS 1 adapted from Android.
This will certainly have an impact on Meizu phones, but it is October 10th already, and the iPhone 16 started to be sold in various stores in the mainland on September 4th, and has already set off a huge sales boom.
At the same time, Jobs hired a team of lawyers to sue Meizu M8 for various appearance patent infringements and plagiarism. Although many people in Henan Province were running around, Jobs started to attack them for not paying attention to copyright and being too...
Wang Chengguang had known for a long time that more than once, bigwigs had asked him to pay attention to this kind of international legal dispute.
The launch of the Spark phone will not affect the sales of Meizu M8, but will only affect the Meizu M9 which Jack Huang is still researching.
The first generation of Spark mobile phone was designed to compete with iPhone 1.
In Beijing, Shenzhen and provincial capitals, there are long queues outside countless Apple stores, and it is impossible to buy a machine. Various black market premium mobile phones are also very popular.
Even if the first generation of Spark mobile phone will not be available in the market until November or December at the earliest, the biggest market it will impact is the gun-resistant and kidney-resistant mobile phones.
Loss-making retail has improved the quality of mobile phones. The original Xiaomi 1 had problems such as severe overheating, freezing, and black screen. These problems will naturally be stabilized, and the quality of use will also be greatly improved.
Of course it can't compare to iPhone 4 in a head-to-head competition, but the difference is not that huge.
The launch of such a mobile phone is to grab the platform and compete with iPhone 4 for platform tax. Wang Chengguang's suggestion is not to collect as much as Apple. He only has 51% of the shares of this mobile phone manufacturer. Lei Jun's friends and Pony Ma are also major shareholders. It is impossible for the two sides to maintain a high-loss cooperation model.
After hearing his words, Gu Jingjing smiled and nodded, and began to post on Weibo, "@全网@雷布斯@小马哥, Dr. Wang is studying, let me tell you that the Spark mobile phone has officially launched. In the production and assembly, the Internet thinking is burning money to grab the market."
"The first generation machine loses 1 yuan per unit, 800 million units lose 100 million, and 8 million units lose 1000 billion. Just to allow netizens to use cheap and affordable new machines, his wealth as the richest man will be gone in a few years."
