"Have you seen "The King of Manga"?" Li Rui did not answer Tang Yan's question directly, but asked an unrelated question.

Tang Yan was confused. What is it? What is it? What is it?

Li Rui explained to him: ""The King of Manga" is an island comic, telling the story of two young people drawing comics. There is a description of the content of the comic, which I think is applicable to many fields."

"The most important symbol of the so-called kingly comics is passion and dreams. There are protagonists who are constantly working hard to make progress, strong opponents, beautiful heroines, escalating fights, positive sunshine, and conforming to the values ​​​​of most people. This is the kingly way.

The so-called evil refers to cartoons that take an eccentric approach, deviate from normal values, and often contain unexpected content."

"Putting the definitions of kingship and evil into the field of instant messaging software, then whether it is Credit Suisse, vXinmi, Fetion, etc., they are all kingship software. As for your Momo, others may not know it yet, but I know it is a

Evil software!”

Tang Yan's expression changed several times. He initially suspected that Li Rui had an informant in the company, otherwise how could he know everything?

Now Tang Yan realizes that there may not be such a thing as an eyeliner.

Because he never told anyone the true intention of developing Momo, including his subordinates who started the business together.

Every time he describes the future of Momo, he will say that his goal is to make a software similar to V-Message and MiLiao.

Only he himself knows his true thoughts.

But now, his thoughts were revealed by Li Rui.

"Mr. Li, I don't quite understand what you mean." Tang Yan was still resisting.

Li Rui lowered his voice and said: "Striking up a conversation, making friends, and socializing with strangers are not shameful things. They are desires that people are born with. Look at the bars on this street, the men and women coming and going, aren't they all

Do you come and go with similar purposes? If Momo can help them do this, you have actually benefited a group of people."

Tang Yan was dumbfounded, Li Rui really revealed his ultimate purpose.

He developed Momo with the purpose of socializing with strangers, making friends with adults, and making online appointment (yuē) and meeting (pào) software!

Li Rui continued: "Actually, we can be more honest."

Tang Yanchang sighed and said, "Now that Mr. Li knows everything, I won't hide it from you. I am indeed working on such a software, and it will be on the shelves next month."

Li Ruidao: "But you are still working in Internet suppression?"

"I'm ready to resign," Tang Yan said.

Li Rui nodded and did not dwell on this issue. It was a matter of personal morality and would not hinder his investment plan.

If given a choice between ability and character, Li Rui would definitely choose ability.

Binding a relationship with interests is far more reliable than relying on the other party's personal character. This has always been Li Rui's view.

Moreover, it is well known in the industry that the Internet cannot retain people. This has a lot to do with Ding Sanshi's "stinginess". Tang Yan only received a few more months of salary.

Compared with people who have fallen out with each other, it can be considered a peaceful breakup.

"I'm meeting you this time mainly because I want to know whether Momo needs angel investment?" Li Rui asked, "If Momo is interested, Xingrui Capital is willing to become Momo's angel investor and work together to build this software."

Tang Yan smiled bitterly and said: "Actually, we are talking about angel investment..."

"Oh? Can you tell me in detail?" Li Rui narrowed his eyes.

Tang Yan said: "It's my former boss..."

Tang Yan thought Li Rui knew everything, so he told everything.

It turns out that on July 7, Tang Yan, Lei Liang, and Li Xiaowei jointly established "Momo Technology Co., Ltd."

Lei Liang and Li Xiaowei are both colleagues of Tang Yan. The three of them are in Cao Ying and their hearts are with Han. Although they are still receiving the salary of the network police, their thoughts are all focused on Mo Mo.

In Momo Company, Lei Liang serves as the product manager, Li Xiaowei is the technical manager, and Tang Yan is responsible for the overall work.

The angel investor they are contacting, Li Yong, is Tang Yan's boss at Wangyi and serves as the president of Wangji's portal.

The investment method and equity ratio are under negotiation between the two parties.

According to the idea of ​​Tang Yan and the others, they hope that Li Yong can invest 5 million yuan, accounting for no more than 20% of the shares, and the other 80% of the shares will be distributed in the ratio of Tang Yan: Lei Liang: Li Xiaowei = 8:1:1.

Li Yong bargained, hoping to invest 3 million, accounting for 30% of the shares.

The two sides have been at loggerheads over this issue, and have not yet reached an agreement since before the company was established.

Li Rui nodded slightly after listening to Tang Yan's words.

The silent equity structure is actually the most normal and reasonable distribution method. It is best for a startup company to have a core founder who has decision-making power and a large number of shares to ensure control of the company.

Tang Yan is the core founder of Momo. He holds the largest number of shares, which helps improve the decision-making rate and ensures that he devotes himself wholeheartedly to starting a business.

As for the shares held by angel investors, the proportion is generally not too high, otherwise the founding team that actually works will lack sufficient equity incentives. Moreover, in subsequent rounds of financing, once VC discovers that angel investors hold too high a share,

It will also affect investment willingness.

Silently giving Li Yong 20% ​​of the equity is basically the most common and reasonable industry practice.

Some people who don't know much about venture capital ask for a shareholding of more than 30%, and some even ask for more than 50%. Li Rui can only say that such people should start their own business, or go back and brush up on investment knowledge, so as not to

It’s ridiculous and generous (I’m talking about some people who give advice in the comment area).

"If you can't reach an agreement, how about considering Xingrui Capital? Not only can I provide money, but I can also give you a lot of publicity resources." Li Rui said.

Tang Yan was a little tempted. He had been working as an editor since he joined the Internet. He knew the importance of publicity, especially a deviant software like Momo, which needed publicity resources.

Although Li Yong still holds an important position in Wangyi and has a lot of publicity resources in his hands, once Tang Yan leaves, Ding Sanshi's character will definitely not agree to Wangyi doing publicity for Momo, which means that he will follow Li Momo.

All Yong can get is investment.

Angel investment not only invests money, but also includes various resources.

Why did Li Rui invest so hard on Instagram and WhatsApp when he was hungry? Because Li Rui only had money and no other resources at that time. If he had the connections and resources he has today, how could the other party hesitate?

Tang Yan couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Li, what specific publicity resources do you have?"

Li Rui said simply.

Tang Yan was stunned when he heard this, and then he realized that young Li Rui actually had so many industrial resources in his hands.

Li Rui struck while the iron was hot and said: "I agree to your terms, five million, 20% of the shares. And I will also provide Credit Suisse with a series of development assistance."
