Zhan Fei had already thought about the conversation with the opposite party in his mind.
Who's on the other side? What is his identity? What does he want to threaten himself with
Is he a cold male voice? A seductive female voice? Or even a distorted tone created by a voice changer
But I never expected that the voice coming from the other party was actually a child's voice.
"Friend, have you ever heard of Xiao X?"
It seemed that because Zhan Fei didn't answer, the child's voice opposite asked again.
"I just heard the name today."
Zhan Fei decided to go along with what the other person said for the time being, observing the other person's purpose before deciding on the next conversation.
"That's great."
The voice on the other side of the phone seemed very happy, "In that case, would you like to join us and promote Xiao X to the whole world?"
"What do you mean?" Zhan Fei frowned, "Who are you? Why do you want me to join? What is my value and what benefits can I get?"
"Mr. Zhan Fei, you can call me X."
The child's voice on the phone said seriously, "This is a small organization that specializes in biotechnology. The "Little X Translation Assistant" sent to you is the first artificial intelligence product of Organization X."
"If the organizations that can design such products are small organizations, wouldn't the company I run be nothing?" Zhan Fei snorted coldly.
"No, no, no! The reason why we are called a 'small organization' is because we have no manpower in the organization." Tong Sheng explained, "So I followed the dark web and found you."
"Why can't I understand what you are talking about?"
Zhan Fei's expression turned cold. Sure enough, the other party was found from the dark web.
"Of course, I didn't just find you, I also found King, SB, and CZH."
"impossible!"
Zhan Fei's pupils shrank, and the phone was almost crushed by him, "You even found King and the others, in reality?"
These English names may seem ordinary, even a little funny, but only people who are involved in the hacker world will understand how scary they are.
Every one of these names is a top figure in the hacker world.
"Of course, to me, your traces are too obvious."
Tong Sheng chuckled and said, "The reason why I came to you is because you are all successful people who have worked hard on your own. You don't have complicated backgrounds. This is how we can cooperate."
Zhan Fei felt a chill on his back. When he reached out and touched it, he realized that he was already covered in cold sweat.
If any hacker told him that he had found the real identities of King, SB and others, Zhan Fei would definitely sneer at him, but at this moment, he had no idea that the other party was bragging...
Obviously, he must carefully clean up all traces every time. Even in the battle with whine a year ago, he only lost slightly.
Who can find myself without any awareness of myself? Who is this X
Thinking of this, Zhan Fei took a deep breath, "Then what do you need us to do?"
"My request is very simple. I hope you can become shareholders of "Little X Translation Assistant"."
Tong Sheng didn't seem to be aware of his image problem at all, and still said in a milky voice, "I hope you can finance a company called 'Blacklight Biotechnology Co., Ltd.', so that my company can avoid a lot of trouble." .”
"But in my opinion, this product doesn't need us."
Zhan Fei frowned, "I believe that with the technology of this software, we can attract a lot of venture capital."
"But in that case, the product and even the company will not completely belong to me."
Tong Sheng was a little helpless, "Although this is indeed a good choice, I hope that the company will always be under my control."
"I understand."
Zhan Fei nodded. Most entrepreneurs have different feelings about their companies. This is normal. However, if the company wants to become bigger and stronger, it needs investment from all parties, so there is angel investment. common situation in the industry.
But not all companies or projects can attract investment. The ones that can really attract investment are all companies with strong potential and that are favored by everyone.
But after all, capital is driven by profits. It often happens that after several rounds of financing, some companies even take on other people's surnames, and even the founders are kicked out of the company.
And if you don't accept financing, the other party can imitate your technology and re-establish a company to compete with you. If you lack funds, your only end is to be easily defeated by the other party and die without a burial place.
This is why many people have a love-hate relationship with venture capital.
Capital never sleeps. In the eyes of capital, there is no right or wrong, only interests.
But if the shareholders of the company hold the lifeblood in their own hands, then of course it will be different. The other party will not be able to interfere with the company's affairs, and will not interfere with the founder's privileges.
At this time, this seems to be the meaning of X.
"Can I take these words as a threat?" Zhan Fei said coldly.
"If you are happy." X said nonchalantly.
"So last question, what do I get out of this?"
Zhan Fei asked again, "If all this is of no benefit to me at all, and is even going to take away from everything I have now, then I'm sorry, but I would rather fight to the death with you!"
"Okay, okay, I'm not that kind of person."
X said, "The four of you each invest 10 million in my project, and I will give you 2% of the shares, but the condition is that you must not interfere in any internal affairs of the company. This should be reasonable, right?"
Zhan Fei suddenly laughed in anger, "Are you sure you are talking about the "Little
“Two percent is a lot!”
X argued, "Maybe you don't know enough about the technological capabilities of "Little It exceeds existing AI translation technology by more than five years!”
Zhan Fei opened his mouth to retort, but suddenly his heart moved.
Although he had just used it casually before, the kind of fonts that could perfectly replace all fonts on foreign language web pages without any sense of inconsistency. This level of technology was really enough to beat any similar product as he said.
The other party didn't seem to be exaggerating.
If this is true, then once this software is released, it will definitely be a huge profit!
Thinking of this, Zhan Fei's originally angry and resistant mood also faded a little.
"Besides, my company will not only have the "Little X Translation Assistant" project in the future."
X continued. "The company also has a 'simultaneous translator' under research, which is expected to be launched within half a year. You will understand by then."
"Simultaneous translator?" Zhan Fei frowned, "The kind of thing that allows two people who don't understand the language to communicate? I've used this before, but it's not easy to use."
"But we are different," X explained. "You should have seen "The Wandering Earth". Our simultaneous translation machine can reach the level in the movie."
Zhan Fei fell silent immediately after hearing this. After a while, he continued, "I need to think about it."
"No problem." Let’s discuss it together again.”
