Chapter 258 We Will Not Be Ungrateful
"Sister Shen Ci, do you come here often?" someone couldn't help but ask curiously.
Shen Ci raised her lips and smiled playfully, her eyes sweeping over everyone: “Maybe everyone will come here often in the future.”
"What do you mean?" Ge Youcai asked with bright eyes, "Are we going to hold team building here from now on?"
“Isn’t that a bit too extravagant?”
"And it's always my junior schoolmate who pays for dinner, which makes me feel embarrassed."
"Yeah, if we split the bill, it's fine. After all, we've made a lot of money."
Everyone was talking at once, but Chen Ci just smiled and said nothing.
Luo Tianrui on the side seemed uninterested in this question. He looked at Chen Ci and suddenly said, "Chen Ci, we are ready to develop the next project."
With just one sentence, the scene instantly quieted down.
Chen Ci was a little surprised: "So soon? Do you already have a clear goal?"
"Yes, we have actually been discussing this since the Chinese New Year. Our final idea is to build on the previous project and advance it to version 2.0, creating a new program that is faster, more accurate, and more efficient."
Senior Pei Pei continued, "We're considering that technology is always improving and updating. Since our current program will eventually be replaced by a new one, why not replace ourselves? With our previous successful experience, we'll definitely have a unique advantage in new projects, and our basic success rate will be even higher!"
Shen Ci nodded slightly when he heard this: "It is indeed a safe and stable decision."
Then Chen Ci glanced at everyone and said, "So this is what you've already decided? Most of you are graduating this year. Does that mean you don't plan to submit resumes and look for jobs, but instead want to continue to start a business together?"
After all, with the successful track record of this project, they can actually easily find very stable and high-paying jobs.
Luo Tianrui looked at Chen Ci seriously and said, "Chen Ci, it's not 'you', it's 'we'!"
"us?"
Shen Ci was slightly startled, but noticed the meaningful smiles on the faces of others.
Then she smiled: "You still need me? Are you still willing to let your capital suck your blood?"
After all, they all made money, and this was only the initial income. Now this project will continue to produce a steady stream of income, which is enough for them to start a joint venture.
To be honest, Shen Ci never thought that they would be willing to let her make a second round of investment.
Although a second round of reinvestment can reduce their losses to zero, once successful, the returns will be greatly reduced. Everyone must understand this.
"Are you still willing to invest in us?" Luo Tianrui looked at her and asked.
"Of course!" Chen Ci blurted out without hesitation: "As long as you need me, of course I am willing!"
"But the problem is..." Chen Ci hesitated for a moment, then decided to make it clear: "The money you earn from this project is enough for you to start your own business. Even if the project has risks, you can definitely afford to lose. Why are you still willing to let me invest?"
Shen Ci asked with extreme seriousness.
After hearing this, the smiles on everyone's faces became even more intense.
Luo Tianrui explained, "While our success wasn't accidental, we have to admit that our first entrepreneurial success was largely due to luck. However, even if it was luck, it only really came into play after you showed up. Whether you like it or not, we all feel from the bottom of our hearts that we wouldn't be where we are today without you."
The others nodded.
Luo Tianrui then continued, "We want you to continue to be our investor. We have both rational analysis and personal motives. The rationality lies in the fact that one success doesn't mean anything. We all know that our team is not mature yet, and the future won't always be so smooth. We are very happy to have made our first pot of gold, but we still need someone to back us up!"
"Everyone has their own selfish thoughts, so I won't go into detail here. But there is one thing we all agree on, and that is we can't be ungrateful. We are not that kind of people who would want to kick our benefactor away just after tasting the fruits of success!"
Everyone echoed, "That's right, our schoolmate is so kind to us, trusting us and supporting us unconditionally, we definitely won't be ungrateful!"
"Yes, we all think so."
"Since you're willing, Junior, then we have a deal. For the next project, you pay and we do the work!"
Chen Ci looked at the sincere faces in front of her and was deeply moved. She had never thought of this scene before. She really thought that after helping them make their first pot of gold, she should retire.
I didn’t expect everyone...
Chen Ci nodded somewhat speechlessly, then raised his wine glass. Seeing this, everyone also raised theirs, and then Chen Ci said, "Thank you everyone, toast to everyone!"
Shen Ci drank the wine very thoroughly, not leaving a drop.
After putting down his wine glass, Shen Ci looked at everyone and added proudly: "Do what you want, I will never be vague about the funds!"
"I've been waiting for you to say this, school girl!"
"Then we have a deal!"
“With Junior Sister Shen Ci here, we feel at ease!”
“That’s right!”
The atmosphere reached a climax, and everyone began to toast Shen Ci in turn. Shen Ci was really happy today, and she truly felt that she had completely integrated into this team.
Soon, Shen Ci's porcelain-white cheeks were covered with a slightly drunken red, but she was still conscious.
"Brother Luo, my suggestion is that we set up a studio."
"Studio?" Luo Tianrui was stunned. He had never thought about this question.
Chen Ci nodded: "Yes, a studio. With a studio, everyone will be legitimate people in the field, and no longer a makeshift team, and it will also seem more formal!"
"In the future, we can also recruit talented people and hire some employees to expand the scale. With employees, some scattered basic work can save everyone a lot of energy and time."
"The most important thing is that the studio's reputation has spread, which will be beneficial to future business development."
Chen Ci's suggestion made Luo Tianrui suddenly realize: "Chen Ci, you are right, we should indeed set up a professional studio."
Seeing this, Chen Ci smiled slightly: "Anyway, this matter is not urgent. You can go back and discuss the details with everyone first. If you need my help later, just tell me."
Luo Tianrui nodded: "Okay, you are still thoughtful."
"There's one more thing." Chen Ci looked Luo Tianrui in the eye and said seriously, "Since we're going to continue our cooperation, we should renegotiate the profit sharing ratio. The success of the first project is your bargaining chip. You are qualified to ask for an increase in the profit sharing ratio!"
Gastritis + diarrhea, the person has been tortured to exhaustion.
I had originally asked for leave from everyone in the group, but seeing that there were still two hours until midnight, I decided to grit my teeth and finally write a chapter, since I was too uncomfortable to sleep anyway.
I feel embarrassed to ask for monthly tickets. I'll ask for them after I recover.
Viruses are rampant in the spring, so everyone needs to stay healthy.
