Chapter 14 One billion after tax, stock price soars

Said it would take an hour.

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

Li Xingyang on the side was feeling hungry, so he called the waiter and ordered some desserts and fruits to eat, but he didn't leave and acted very patiently.

It wasn't until Li Lihong hung up the phone and discussed it with the company's senior management and even Mr. Ma.

Then he returned to the private room with a sweaty face. After sitting down, he said to Li Xingyang: "Brother, Brother Li, the fixed 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 stood up and was about to leave. He said unhappily: "I won't sell it anymore. You have no sincerity at all. You just want to take advantage of me."

"Wait a minute, we have two more conditions!"

Li Lihong stopped him and said: "This billion is an after-tax payment. We will help pay 20% of corporate income tax, which is equivalent to an actual payment of 1.2 billion. In addition, we can sign a guarantee agreement. If "God Level"

The sales of the software "Painter" have exceeded 2 billion. For the excess, we can give you another 20% of the profit dividend, which means there will be profits later. Little brother, we really come here with sincerity. Please consider it again.

Let's all form a good relationship. If you want to cooperate with Wanli Company in the future, we will also provide you with convenience."

One billion after taxes.

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

These two additional conditions made Li Xingyang a little excited.

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 fishy places in the profit dividend, so I need to change it."

"No problem, this is acceptable!"

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

In fact, in the phone discussion just now, he and the executives of Wanli Technology Company came to a unanimous assessment: no matter how good the market feedback of "God-level Painter" is and how high the download volume is, the actual paying users will still be

It is difficult to exceed one million, and selling two billion is probably the upper limit - these executives are all talented people, and there are professionals in the industry to help with analysis, and they have been working hard in the Internet field for so many years, it is easy to achieve

Estimate the upper limit of a software product.

You must know that Wanli Company's e-commerce business generates sales of two to three trillion yuan every year, but its revenue is only about one hundred billion, and its net profit is at most two to three tens of billions. "God-level Painter", a mere drawing software, can earn 20 billion yuan.

100 million, this is already very impressive. If there is a trend of earning 3 billion, 5 billion or even more, I am afraid that similar competing software will soon appear on the market, priced at only one-tenth, or

Just make it free, frantically grab users, turn on the involution mode, and end up with nothing.

Therefore, even if it offers a buyout of one billion after tax and various operating costs, Wanli Company will not make any money, it will just not lose money.

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

Even if it only rises by 1%, they will make a profit from this operation. If it can rise by 5%, it will be a huge profit. After all, each of them has a net worth of hundreds of millions or billions, and it will fluctuate up to five percentage points.

, which is a very impressive number.

In addition, this will also help to raise billions or tens of billions of funds in the market, allowing Wenxin Qianwen to continue burning money to grow, which is of greater significance to the development of Wanli Company.

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

The acquisition cooperation is concluded!

soon.

In the afternoon of that day, the two parties formally signed an acquisition agreement, and Li Xingyang's personal studio 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 are all handed over to Wanli Company personnel.

And during the handover process.

The engineers of Wanli Company were all shocked when they saw the complex and exquisite source code at the bottom of the software and the AI ​​learning model with only a few thousand parameters in the server backend system, but with extremely powerful functions and intelligence.

So, I feel unbelievable.

"How is this model designed? It only has a few thousand parameters, but it is more powerful than our large AI models with hundreds of billions of parameters."

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

"I think we can learn a lot from this small model. If we can integrate it and apply it to our Wenxin Qianwen, we may be able to evolve it to version 5.0, with performance that exceeds all generative AI currently on the market."

"Yes, I have the same premonition."

"Mr. Li, what team created the AI ​​model behind your software? How many big guys are there?"

This senior engineer named Liu Jianchao, who had most of his hair bald and looked like a strong man, couldn't help but ask Li Xingyang a question. He was very curious about the development team behind it.

"It's just a small smart software. I built it in a month. No team is needed."

Li Xingyang held his hands and said to him calmly.

Buzz~

There was a sudden silence in the room, and all the engineers looked at him, their heads buzzing.

Liu Jianchao was also stunned. He looked at the young and handsome guy in front of him, and then at the thick black hair on his forehead. Suddenly, with a plop, he knelt down on the ground, hugged his thigh and said, "Boss!

Accept me, I am willing to be your little brother and follow you from now on. I can do whatever you want me to do. I just ask that you allow me to study with you."

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

"I am willing to quit my job at Wanli Company and give up my annual salary of one million yuan. I just want to follow you, the boss!"

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

Although the Wanli Company engineers present did not bow down to each one of them, they all expressed that they wanted to hang out with the big boss, embrace the big boss's lap, and were even willing to give up high-paying jobs in big factories. You must know that they are all capable and capable.

If a person with discerning vision can successfully hold a living God in his lap, then he will definitely have a much better future than being a laborer.

"Go, go, don't bother me, I don't want to take you on, and I don't have time to teach you."

Li Xingyang waved his hand and refused these people's entreaties. Liu Jianchao and others could only sigh, looking dejected, but they did not dare to be dissatisfied at all.

…

Server migration completed.

All user data is handed over.

Even the software's payment account has been replaced by the payment code of Wanli Company's financial department. From now on, Li Xingyang's account will not receive a penny. Fortunately, more than 5 million promotion fees have been accumulated, and Wanli Company will pay for it.

, that is, the debt is cleared.

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

Wanli Company promised to pay the remaining 950 million within thirty days without missing a penny.

Huhu~

Seeing the balance number in the card, Li Xingyang breathed a long sigh of relief, because he knew that the most difficult first step at the beginning was finally taken, and the road ahead would be much easier.

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

On May 15, the download volume of "Godly Painter" exceeded the 3 million mark, and the number of actual users who tried it exceeded 500,000. More and more users choose to activate and pay.

It was also at noon that day.

Wanli Technology Company officially announced that it has completed the strategic acquisition of the intelligent drawing software "God-level Painter" (the acquisition amount is confidential). Wenxin Qianwen, a generative AI company, saw how to achieve profitability and saw a clear future and direction for the first time.

In the near future, Wanli Company will professionally customize more similar intelligent software products based on Wenxin Qianwen, 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 the majority of users.

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

“The first domestic and the world’s first profitable AI software has been officially announced!”

"Wanli Company is very courageous, and now it has found a profitable model. In the field of generative AI, Wanli Company's advantages are even greater."

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

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

"The membership fee is 99 yuan/year, which is like a dull knife, but we promise to add some functions every year and continue to improve and optimize it."

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

"Now 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 still have to burn money in the future, at least he has the ammunition to replenish himself and can gradually achieve normal results.

It’s going round.”

Public opinion evaluations were generally positive.

The investment circle also gave very high evaluations and were even more optimistic about Wen Xin Qianwen’s future.

So in the afternoon of the same day, after the A-share market opened, under the influence of optimism, Wanli Technology Company's shares were bought one after another. As expected, it began to rise. As of the closing at 15:00, the market value had increased by 2.78%, and it was expected to continue to rise.

Space, and finally closed up by more than 5%, without any problems.
