Hearing Chu Yinyin's tone become cold and hard, Zheng Hongyi realized that the reason why Chu Yinyin and Chen Yan behaved so indifferently was not because they were really impolite, but seemed to be purely because they had personal emotions towards him.
Of course, the habits developed over the past twenty years cannot be reversed immediately in such a short period of time.
He has been a boss for more than 20 years and is like an emperor in the company on weekdays, with people all around him fawning on him.
Outside the company, because he is a truly successful person, he is greeted with flattering smiles wherever he goes.
Having been held in high regard by everyone for so many years, Zheng Hongyi, although he himself did not realize it, had long been accustomed to communicating with others in a condescending manner.
Perhaps in his own opinion, his words and actions are respectful enough to others, but in the eyes of those who have had contact with him, the obvious arrogance that comes from his bones is full of uncomfortable "daddy flavor".
Although he noticed this, Zheng Hongyi didn't care.
Geniuses always have individuality.
However, no matter how talented a genius is, he must bow to reality!
Zheng Hongyi is very clear about how much money is needed to build a successful AI language model.
With that kind of funds, let alone a makeshift team that looked like it had just been set up, even if it were a big company, it would be impossible for them to bear it.
Only a leading enterprise, or an emerging technology company that has received huge investment from a leading enterprise, can truly shine in this field!
"Mr. Chu, I didn't come all the way from Beijing to discuss such trivial matters with you. I'm very busy and my schedule is very full every day, so let's get straight to the point."
Zheng Hongyi looked at Chu Yinyin coldly and continued, "I know you and...your colleague don't like me, but it doesn't matter. There aren't many people who like me, and business doesn't require others to like you. As long as everyone likes money, that's enough.
The reason I came all the way from Beijing is because I'm quite interested in the 'Boundless Dimension' platform your company has built. My secretary recommended it to me, and if it weren't for him, I wouldn't have heard of you.
Although I think the 'Unbounded Dimension' platform still has many shortcomings and problems, compared to other similar platforms, it does have some advantages. In my opinion, your platform does meet the standards for me to invest."
Having said that, Zheng Hongyi deliberately paused.
His eyes swept across Chu Yinyin's face, but he did not see the joy on Chu Yinyin's face that he thought he would see.
As for the person who had been watching short videos, he was still watching short videos non-stop, as if he didn't care at all about what he was saying.
Zheng Hongyi didn't expect the two young men opposite to be so calm. The current situation was quite different from his initial expectations, which made him frown.
He could only continue, "I've noticed that your platform hasn't done any promotion since it launched. If nothing unexpected happens, the average daily visits should be around zero, right? Even if your platform still has many problems and doesn't have many advantages compared to other platforms, it shouldn't be this deserted."
I believe it's not that you don't want to promote your own platform, but rather that you're limited by your company's size and can't afford to do so. My favorite thing to do in recent years is to support young people with ideas and drive, giving them a chance to realize their dreams.
With this in mind, and also to express my sincere support for you, I flew here in person. I admire your talents, and for that reason, I'm willing to give you a chance. Five million for just 40% of the shares, how about that?
After saying that, Zheng Hongyi stared at Chu Yinyin intently, hoping to draw some conclusions from the changes in Chu Yinyin's expression.
Of course he knew that the price he offered was nothing more than a joke.
But...what if?
What if these two young people in front of us only have talent but don’t actually know the value of what they have created?
Even though the possibility is very small, it is not completely impossible, so we have to give it a try first.
Even if you can’t fool them, it doesn’t matter, you can just pay extra money later.
In negotiations, if you ask for a high price and pay a low price, no one will know what the other party’s bottom line is without some discussion.
Unfortunately, he still didn't see any emotional fluctuations on Chu Yinyin's face.
"What do you think?"
Chu Yinyin turned around and asked Chen Yan.
Chen Yan closed the short video app, first glanced at Zheng Hongyi, then looked at Chu Yinyin seriously and asked, "Do you believe him or do you believe that I am Qin Shi Huang?"
Chu Yinyin was stunned for a moment, but then she understood what Chen Yan meant. An uncomfortable expression appeared on her pretty face, as if she was trying hard not to laugh out loud. At the same time, she pursed her lips tightly together, barely suppressing her smile.
Zheng Hongyi's face twitched, and he said in a deep voice, "This must be Mr. Chen Yan, right? Was the 'Boundless Dimension' platform developed by Mr. Chen?"
Chen Yan nodded lazily and said, "That's right. First of all, let me make it clear that our platform does not need investment, and we have no intention of soliciting external investment. You came here inexplicably and shouted for investment. This behavior seems very strange to me.
Secondly, even if our platform really needs investment, it's impossible to sell 40% of the 5 million. Let alone 40%, even selling 1% of the 5 million is impossible. Please go back. I don't want to waste my precious time.
Zheng Hongyi took a deep breath and said confidently, "Mr. Chen, Mr. Chu, I've met many talented young people who are extremely confident in their products. However, they often underestimate the market's potential and over-optimistically estimate their company's prospects."
It's normal. A startup's products are like your children, and no one wants to sell them cheaply. But the reality is often cruel. We at 365 Technology can not only provide you with the cash you need, but also support you with channels and traffic!
Compared to cash, support from channels and traffic is actually what's truly valuable. Because channels and traffic can quickly make your platform profitable! As long as you work with me, I can guarantee that within five years, your company will be able to go public!
Chen Yan sighed and said helplessly, "Mr. Zheng, don't you understand what I'm saying? I think I've made it very clear. We don't need investment!"
