The preparations and costs for starting a business are quite high, and many steps are cumbersome.
If he had not relied on two sharings and accidentally became financially free, Meng Fanqi might still be more inclined to collect money from technology sharing.
Among them, the biggest expense is mainly office business premises. If this place is not purchased first, the company's license and bank account will not be obtained.
Others include the purchase of office supplies and related computing equipment.
When starting an AI-related technology business, there is no way to save on hardware in this area, not only high-priced graphics cards are required.
Other supporting components such as CPU, memory and hard disk must not be saved.
In a place like Shanghai, the rental price is as detailed as every square meter per day, so there is really no need.
At this time, the information on the Internet is not as detailed as it will be later, and you still have to visit on the spot, which is quite energy-consuming.
On the occasion of Christmas, the white-skinned and black-skinned people on the other side of the Pacific Ocean are singing and dancing, while the lights in the country are still bright.
"Google is still rich. The rent in the World Financial Center is so luxurious, it costs more than 20 yuan per square meter per day, which is seven or eight times the price here in Caohe." At this time, office buildings near Caohe only cost one or two yuan per square meter per day, and three An area of 400 square meters costs 10,000 yuan a month.
Meng Fanqi once again came to the familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar Caohe neighborhood, but this time he did not come to work, but to look for his own office space.
Next to him was a middle-aged man with a Chinese character and a dignified face. This man had experience in Jun He, specializing in the settlement of Internet e-commerce, cross-border e-commerce, capital equity and other matters.
He is also relatively familiar with digital economy and Internet pan-finance.
However, due to disagreements with some big boss partners, my promotion and work progress were not smooth. In addition, I was almost 50 years old without realizing it. Under such circumstances, I felt tired and wanted to go out and change my mood.
Gao Wenhe has cooperated a lot with Google's Shanghai advertising branch and is familiar with some Google employees.
Since the share amount that Google Advertising will give to Meng Fanqi this time is too large, Gao Wenhe is responsible for connecting with Shang Hai and explaining the split and tax avoidance of this part to Meng Fanqi.
This is also Gao Wenhe's last task in Junhe.
He never imagined that it would be this mission that would completely change the direction of his future life.
When he encountered a bottleneck in Junhe, he was disheartened and left to become a free man. However, he accidentally regained his second youth at this age, and in a field that he didn't quite understand, he became the leader of the AI empire in the future. Employee No. 1, Chief Legal Officer.
Life is so absurd.
"Brother, whether you want to buy or rent, our real estate company still has a lot of resources around here. High-rise views, private houses, everything you need."
He had just confirmed that Meng Fanqi was not an employee, but he was the boss. The person next to him who looks like the boss actually seems to be an employee.
Yan Changchun has not been in business for a long time, less than three years.
However, he estimated that in his future career, he would probably have few opportunities to see such a young boss.
"I would like to send my younger brother here. The company hasn't started yet." Meng Fanqi didn't think there was anything wrong with picking the company address by himself. After all, he had to interview others, and having an office space always looked more professional.
Besides, if we don’t book it early, we won’t have enough time.
"I haven't decided whether to buy or rent. Maybe I'll look at renting first. Three hundred square meters is definitely enough for these two months. I may have to change again in the future. If I really want to see something suitable, five hundred square meters will be enough." You can consider buying it for Ping Zuo.”
Meng Fanqi also wanted to get it right in one step, earning one or two thousand square meters, but he was afraid that he wouldn't have enough money on hand to squander it. If you really see something you like, you should be able to buy it if you bite the bullet.
At this time, the office buildings near Caohe cost tens of thousands of yuan per square meter. If they wanted to get it done in one step, they would almost wipe out the 24 million yuan that Meng Fanqi had on hand.
Meng Fanqi followed Yan Changchun around Caohe and saw several sets of over 1,000 square meters of whole-story buildings connected together, and he liked it very much.
Split air-conditioning system, eight elevators on standby, large floor-to-ceiling windows in the southeast and northwest, the lobby downstairs is quite grand, and there is also a small garden on the floor.
The most important thing is that it currently has several consecutive floors vacant, which is very tempting to Meng Fanqi, who plans to open two companies.
It's a pity that the total price is basically the same as the amount of money he has on hand, and it is a single floor.
If this person has money, it will be easier for him to upgrade his consumption.
Meng Fanqi took a closer look at the workstations on this floor. It can be compactly arranged for about 300 people, which was completely sufficient in the past few years.
Seeing Meng Fanqi hesitate, Yan Changchun was not experienced, but he was quite smart.
He quickly stepped forward and said: "There are not many companies coming to this place now, and these floors have been empty for a while. Our maximum installment ratio is half. If you really want it, but the funds are not available for a while, it is completely You can pay 50% of the down payment first, and agree to pay off the rest within one or two years. The interest is very low, and you can make it up at any time in advance.”
"50% down payment, about 10,000 yuan." Meng Fanqi thought for a moment. In the initial stage, he could only have a dozen employees at most, and his monthly salary expenditure would be less than 1 million yuan.
In fact, as long as it survives the first three months, Meng Fanqi's share of the Google advertising system can be said to be a steady stream. Tens of millions of dollars in venue purchase expenses are completely trivial.
"You can also just buy it and buy it." There is no talk of office buildings here in Caohe rising in price. There will still be some that will double in a few years.
As long as the company continues to operate, there will always be no loss in buying it.
There are many and heavy things such as graphics cards and servers. It is really tiring to rent a space first and then move the whole thing in a few months.
"Just this floor." Meng Fanqi chose the lowest floor among the rows, giving up the idea of purchasing space for future upgrades in advance.
Even if the app is built quickly, with rapid expansion, more than 300 workstations within a year will be enough.
Besides, his boss will only stay here for about two months. If they really want to change places in the future, they can just let them worry about it.
It is still necessary to identify the workplace early and recruit people.
Yan Changchun was very happy as he signed the contract readily. This order excludes 3% deed tax and 0.025% stamp tax, and the commission on his performance is also considerable.
He has signed some big deals worth tens of millions in the past three years, but not many of them have been so cheerful.
Contact us by phone, look around, compare, and place an order directly if you like it. This is called chic!
The place comes with fine decoration and basic tables and chairs. Yan Changchun carefully introduced many related matters, such as water, electricity, coal, and various facilities.
Meng Fanqi signed the order and paid the deposit quickly, but he was a little worried about how he could recruit good enough talents.
At this point in time, it is very difficult to recruit people. It is almost the Chinese New Year. I am afraid that no one in the society will be willing to come in a short time.
Anyone who has worked knows how hard work is, and if you are pressed for time, you may not be able to count on them.
Meng Fanqi began to develop ideas for several top universities in Shanghai.
