Interstellar Energy Tycoon

Say it's an hour.

Li Lihong actually talked on the phone for almost two hours.

Li Xingyang on the side was already hungry, so he called the waiter and ordered some desserts and fruits, but he didn't leave and was very patient.

Until Li Lihong hung up the phone, he discussed with the company's senior management and even with Mr. Ma.

Only then did he return to the private room with sweat on his face. After sitting down, he said to Li Xingyang: "Little brother, Brother Li, the one-buy price is one billion. This is the bottom line of our Wanli Company. There is really no way to increase it."

"Only one billion?"

Li Xingyang's face turned ugly, he got up and was about to leave, and said unhappily: "I won't sell it, you have no sincerity at all, you just want to take advantage of me."

"Wait, we still have two conditions!"

Li Lihong stopped him and said: "This billion is a payment of one billion after tax. We will help pay 20% of the corporate income tax, which is equivalent to actually paying 1.2 billion. In addition, we can sign a guarantee agreement. The sales volume of the "Painter" software has exceeded 2 billion. If the excess is exceeded, we can give you another 20% profit dividend, that is, there will be profits in the future. Brother, we really come here with sincerity, please think again, Let’s make a good relationship, and we will provide convenience for you if you want to cooperate with Wanli Company in the future.”

Billions after taxes.

If the sales volume exceeds 2 billion, there will be a 20% profit dividend.

These two additional conditions moved Li Xingyang a little bit.

After thinking for a while, he rolled his eyes, turned around, and said to Li Lihong, "I want 20% of the sales share. There are too many tricks in the profit share, so I need to change it."

"No problem, this is acceptable!"

Li Lihong nodded immediately, with ecstasy on his face, it was done, and the cooperation between the two parties was concluded.

In fact, in the telephone discussion just now, he and the executives of Wanli Technology Company came to a consistent assessment: that is, no matter how good the market feedback of "God-level Painter" is, no matter how high the download volume is, the actual paying users will also be paid. It is very difficult to exceed one million, and selling two billion is estimated to be the upper limit-these executives are all smart, and there are professionals in the industry to help analyze, and they have been working in the Internet field for so many years, it is easy to be able to Estimate the upper limit of a software product.

We must know that the e-commerce business of Wanli Company generates two to three trillion yuan in sales every year, but the revenue is only about 100 billion yuan, and the net profit is at most 20 to 30 billion yuan. 100 million, this is already very powerful. If there is a trend of earning 3 billion, 5 billion or even more, I am afraid that similar competing software will appear on the market soon, and the price is only one-tenth, or It's free, robbing users crazily, turning on the involution mode, and finally it's a chicken feather.

Therefore, even if the bid is one billion after tax to buy out, after deducting various operating costs, Wanli Company will not make any money, but it will not lose money.

The main purpose of Wanli's top management is to boost market confidence and drive up the stock price.

Even if the increase is only 1%, they will make a profit from this operation. If it can increase by 5%, it will be even more profitable. After all, each of them has a net worth of hundreds of millions or billions, and it can fluctuate by five percentage points. , which is a very impressive number.

In addition, this will also help to raise billions to tens of billions of funds in the market, so that Wenxin Qianwen can continue to burn money and grow. This is of greater significance to the development of Wanli Company.

"Okay, we have a happy cooperation!" Li Xingyang smiled and offered his hand.

The acquisition cooperation has been reached!

soon.

In the afternoon of the same day, the two parties formally signed the acquisition agreement, and the personal studio under the name of Li Xingyang also received a deposit of 50 million yuan (after tax).

On the 14th of the next day, Wanli Technology Company transferred 20 senior software engineers from Hangzhou to Li Xingyang's home to start the migration of server data, and handed over all the user information of "God-level Painter". The operation and maintenance of this software is all handed over to the personnel of Wanli Company.

And in the process of handover.

The engineers of Wanli Company saw the complex and delicate source code at the bottom of the software, and saw the AI ​​learning model with only a few thousand parameters in the background system of the server, but with powerful functions and extremely high intelligence. Like, unbelievable.

"How is this model designed? There are only a few thousand parameters, but its capability is stronger than our large AI model with hundreds of billions of parameters."

"Great God, only the top algorithm master can simplify and design such an exquisite model."

"I think we can learn a lot from this small model. If we can master it and apply it to our Wenxinqianwen, maybe we can evolve to version 5.0, and its performance exceeds that of all generative AIs currently on the market."

"Yes, I have the same premonition."

"Mr. Li, what team made the AI ​​model behind your software, and how many bosses are there?"

This senior engineer named Liu Jianchao, who was half bald and looked like a strong man, couldn't help asking Li Xingyang a question, curious about the development team behind it.

"It's just a small piece of smart software. I made it in a month. I don't need any team."

Li Xingyang folded his hands and said to him lightly.

hum~

The scene was suddenly silent, all the engineers looked at him in unison, their heads were buzzing.

Liu Jianchao was also stunned, he looked at the young and handsome guy in front of him, and at the thick black hair on his forehead, suddenly he fell to his knees with a plop, hugged his thigh and said, "Boss! Accept me, I am willing to be your little brother and follow you in the future, you can ask me to do anything, just allow me to study by your side."

"Boss, I want to be your little brother too!"

"I'm willing to quit my job at Wanli Company, give up my million-dollar annual salary, and just want to hang out with you!"

"Boss, please accept me too, I will never betray you."

The engineers of Wanli Company present, although none of them accepted the head and bowed down, they all expressed that they wanted to hang out with the big boss, embrace the big guy's thigh, and were even willing to give up the high-paying jobs in the big factory. You must know that they are all capable. People with discerning eyes, seeing a living God, if they can successfully hug their thighs, they will definitely have a better future than being a laborer.

"Go, go, don't bother me, I don't accept younger brothers, and I don't have time to teach you."

Li Xingyang waved his hand, rejecting these people's entreaties, Liu Jianchao and the others could only sigh, with dejected faces, but they dared not show any dissatisfaction.

...

Server migration is complete.

All user data is handed over.

Even the payment account for the software has been replaced with the collection code of the financial department of Wanli Company. In the future, Li Xingyang’s account will not receive a penny. Fortunately, the promotion fee has accumulated more than 5 million, and Wanli Company will pay for it. , that is, the debt is also cleared.

The amount in Li Xingyang's ICBC card has increased to 54.31708 million yuan (more than 4 million is the payment received from users these days).

For the remaining 950 million, Wanli Company promised to send the money within 30 days, not a penny less.

huh~

Li Xingyang heaved a long sigh of relief when he saw the balance in the card, because he knew that the hardest step at the beginning had finally been taken, and the road ahead would be much easier.

However, the subsequent turmoil and repercussions have only just begun and are not over.

On May 15, the download volume of "God-level Painter" exceeded 3 million, and the actual experience users exceeded 500,000. More and more users choose to activate and pay.

It was also at noon this day.

Wanli Technology Co., Ltd. officially announced that it has completed the strategic acquisition of the intelligent drawing software "God-level Painter" (the acquisition amount is confidential), and how the generative AI Wenxinqianwen can achieve profitability, for the first time, it has seen a clear future and direction.

In the near future, Wanli Company will professionally customize more similar intelligent software products based on Wenxinqianwen, such as "God-level Programmer", "God-level Musician", "God-level Game Development", "God-level Translator" and other functions will be more professional and powerful, bringing greater help to users.

This news, after being widely reported and publicized by hundreds of news media, immediately aroused huge repercussions in public opinion.

"The first AI software in China and the world's first profitable AI software is officially announced!"

"Wanli Company has great courage, and now it has found a profitable model. In the field of generative AI, Wanli Company has even greater advantages."

""God-Class Painter" is indeed powerful and easy to use. Wanli Company has a good vision, and the acquisition is a wise move."

"Since "God-level Painter" has been acquired, the activation fee should be reduced, right? If the price is 99, I will pay immediately."

"It's a membership fee of 99 yuan/year, which has become a blunt knife to cut flesh, but promises to add some functions every year, and will continue to improve and optimize."

"That's pretty good. The food is much better than before. It really is a big company that is reliable."

"It's time for other Internet giants to feel the pressure. In this step, Wanli has indeed taken the lead, seized the opportunity, and found a way to make profits. Although he will have to burn money in the future, at least he has ammunition to replenish and can gradually achieve positive results. to the cycle."

The evaluation of public opinion is generally positive.

The investment circle also gave a very high evaluation, and they are even more optimistic about the future of Wenxinqianwen.

So in the afternoon of the same day, after the opening of the A-shares, under the influence of optimism, the shares of Wanli Technology Company were bought one after another, and they really started to rise. As of the close at 15:00, the market value rose by 2.78%, and there is still room for further rise. Space, and finally closed up more than 5%, without any problems.
