234 A Talented Junior Who Focused On Entrepreneurship

Chairman Xiong’s introduction quickly made Luo Feng understand what kind of person Cui Kun was.

Simply put, he was technically capable but he was determined to start a business. However, looking at how humble he was standing at the entrance of the investment office, it seemed that he was not very successful in starting a business.

“Chairman Xiong, you flatter me… You flatter me…” Cui Kun smiled shyly when he heard Chairman Xiong praise him.

When he returned to China, he was indeed ambitious and many companies invited him. However, Cui Kun felt that a good man should go out and adventure, so he focused on starting a business.

However, what he did not expect was that entrepreneurship and high-end technology were two completely different things.

Cui Kun felt that it was necessary to make his stand clear. He glanced at Luo Feng and said to Chairman Xiong, “Chairman Xiong, you know that I have no intention of working for others now.”

Chairman Xiong took the proposal from Cui Kun’s hand and flipped through it. “Cui Kun, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but how are you going to solve the profits of your current project? Where will the money come from?”

Cui Kun paused for a moment and did not say anything.

Luo Feng was interested. “May I ask what project you’re working on?”

“It’s cloud-computing related!”

Cui Kun became spirited and introduced a lot about the skills that he was so passionate about.

However, among the people present, Luo Feng and Ai Tingya specialized in finance. Chairman Xiong and Ji Yang did not learn computing, so Luo Feng only understood a little. The others did not know what he was talking about at all.

At first, Cui Kun was very enthusiastic, but as he spoke, he sensed that the atmosphere was not right. Their eyes were unfocused, and it was obvious that they were starting to lose focus.

He was all too familiar with this expression. It was always like this. He had said a lot, but not many people understood what he meant.

He looked around helplessly, but Luo Feng’s reaction surprised him.

Luo Feng’s eyes lit up as he focused on him. He seemed to understand what he was talking about!

…

Luo Feng could indeed understand.

For no other reason than that he was someone who had been reborn. The future Internet relied heavily on cloud computing. This technology was indispensable if Luo Feng needed to develop a takeout app.

While Delivery apps in the future would rely on cloud computing to cheat merchants and delivery men, Luo Feng would use it to distribute benefits on both sides if he mastered it.

In the following two years, there would be new technologies that would affect the Internet industry, including artificial intelligence, big data, and cloud computing.

This concept was not very pervasive in China yet.

Cui Kun dared to start a business here. It had to be said that his sense of smell was very sharp. It could be seen that his technical skills were also very strong.

However, Luo Feng paid attention to cloud computing not because it was profitable, but because it burned money.

To Luo Feng, a project that burned money was the best!

Chairman Xiong didn’t want to invest in Cui Kun because he didn’t know much about cloud computing. Moreover, Cui Kun was poor. He might lose everything doing cloud computing.

In his previous life, Alibaba had invested a billion yuan a year for ten years.

It could be seen how much money it burned, but Luo Feng liked it!

He was not very interested when Chairman Xiong introduced him just now but now he realized that Cui Kun was a rare talent! Luo Feng did not hide his burning gaze at all. He looked at Cui Kun like a hungry wolf looking at a tender lamb leg.

One had to know that he had been waiting for such a long time for a talent who would spend money like water!

“Cui Kun, are you willing to come to my company?” Luo Feng could not wait to extend the invitation.

“This…” Cui Kun swallowed. Why did he feel that Luo Feng was looking at him like a big bad wolf looking at a little white rabbit?

He was not afraid of Luo Feng, but he was worried about offending Zishan’s Chairman Xiong. Chairman Xiong seemed to like Luo Feng very much and even relented on the investment conditions again and again.

Cui Kun decided to stick to his principles after thinking about it seriously for a moment.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Luo. Starting a business is my dream. I still hope that I can achieve something.” He said apologetically.

He would not have returned from overseas or would have directly accepted the invitation from the big companies if he was content about working for someone. Why would he wait for Luo Feng to invite him?

Cui Kun believed that Luo Feng, who was also an entrepreneur, would definitely understand his thoughts.

Hearing this, Luo Feng nodded. He was not angry.

Cui Kun was not the only person in the country who knew cloud computing after all. It was just that Luo Feng happened to see Cui Kun and felt that he needed to invite him.

He said casually, “It’s a pity. If you’re willing to come to our company, I’m prepared to push forward my plan to compete with Ma Yun’s Computing Project.”

Chairman Xiong asked with interest, “Oh? Chairman Luo knows about computers too?”

He was a little surprised. Alibaba was the only one doing cloud computing projects in the country now. It was too expensive, and other small companies did not dare to get involved.

Luo Feng dared to compete with such a big name even though his was just a small take-out company that had just started?

This surprised Chairman Xiong.

Cui Kun pricked up his ears.

Luo Feng sighed regretfully. If Cui Kun refused to come, he would have to find another talent. Even though Zishan’s connections would definitely not disappoint him, there would definitely be many more things and trouble…

However, he really liked cloud computing and did not want to let go of such a good project, or rather, such a money-burning project.

“Yes. Gather Sift Takeaway was originally paired with Good Me,” Luo Feng said to Chairman Xiong. “It’s not like I don’t have any ideas about other Internet projects.”

Xie Yan and the others still needed time to grow. During this period, Luo Feng could only find another talent.

He smiled at Chairman Xiong and said, “We need a lot of talent here. We need your help, Chairman Xiong.”

He asked Zishan to join the team because he hoped that their connections could help.

“To be honest, Chairman Luo, don’t take offense. Your company is still too small. It’s not as attractive as other large companies…” Chairman Xiong shook his head.

“I know that too,” Luo Feng said. “That’s why I’m willing to give out shares.”

This method surprised Chairman Xiong.

...

Zishan had just invested in Gather Sift Takeaway and should be valued at 200 million yuan now. The value of its shares had also doubled. It was indeed a tempting condition.

“When I go back, I’ll expand the shareholding ratio of my employees. If any technical expert is willing to come onboard, I can give out share options,” Luo Feng said. “I hope Chairman Xiong can help me pass the message when the time comes.”

Luo Feng would definitely increase his investment in the future in order to ensure the share ratio of Xie Yan’s team would not be diluted. Luo Feng would definitely take out a fixed share ratio for his employees.

At this moment, Cui Kun, who was beside him, could not sit still anymore. “Pardon me for asking, but Mr. Luo, is the shareholding ratio of your company’s employees high?”

“It’s not high now,” Luo Feng said.

“Oh.” Cui Kun felt that he was overthinking…

“About 20 to 30%.”

Xie Yan’s team’s shareholding ratio was 49%. However, a portion of it was in the hands of Xie Yan’s father. It was not considered an employee’s shareholding. Luo Feng chose his words carefully.
