According to Zhou Honghai, Han Zijun and his team have about thirty people, and they are basically all alumni.
When I was willing to stay and start a business together, it was basically because of Han Zijun's influence.
A group of people had little capital to start a business, and the only start-up capital Han Zijun had was more than 200,000 yuan that he scraped together from his family.
However, these people completely ignore the trouble of making a portal.
In less than five months, the team has already encountered a variety of problems.
Not much of the 200,000 yuan was left, and the prototype of the website still faced various problems.
Most importantly, during the team meeting, internal conflicts arose.
Some people think that it was a wrong decision to choose a portal in the first place, because with their current financial strength, they simply cannot build a portal.
And even if it is managed reluctantly later, I am afraid there will not be enough funds to promote it and compete with the three major domestic portals.
Someone in the team suggested that while we still have some funds, we might as well turn around and study other projects immediately.
At least ensure that this team survives.
But Han Zijun was stubborn and not only vetoed the proposal, but also reduced everyone's salary.
The real conflict broke out some time ago when the team finally made a prototype of the website. During the meeting, someone pointed out that the prototype had too many problems and needed to be tested internally again.
But Han Zijun once again showed his strength and rejected the proposal.
In order to bring the project to market as soon as possible and gain investors' appreciation and investment, Han Zijun made a decision to force the website to go online.
The result was that the entire website was running in a mess, with problems cropping up one after another, and making a bunch of people miserable.
At this point, the voices within the team that had been suppressed finally broke out.
At a recent regular company meeting, the conflicts between the two parties could no longer be reconciled. Some people even slammed the table on the spot and proposed to quit the team.
After listening to Zhou Honghai's introduction, Chen Fan felt a little emotional.
Facts have proved that it is difficult to succeed with dreams and passion alone.
Chen Fan did not doubt the abilities of this group of people. After all, those who could graduate from computer science majors in prestigious universities these days had some skills.
However, they only came together based on the loyalty of classmates and enthusiasm. Without funds and perfect company management experience, they were destined not to go very far.
He raised his head and looked at Zhou Honghai opposite.
Chen Fan said: "You told me this because you planned to... let me invest in them?"
Before Zhou Honghai could speak, Chen Fan shook his head.
"Actually, I made it very clear last time that I am not optimistic about their project. I will not let my money go down the drain."
"Lao Zhou, don't be angry if I tell you the truth."
"I know that you have a very good relationship with Han Zijun. We have been classmates and friends for many years, but from the last time I met and chatted with him, I feel that he is a bit stubborn, arrogant and conceited, and cannot listen to other people's opinions..."
Seeing Zhou Honghai open his mouth, Chen Fan raised his hand and continued: "Of course, I don't deny that he has strong personal abilities, but a person like him is not suitable as a leader, and is more suitable as a pure computer professional. ."
"You know what I mean?"
Zhou Honghai smiled bitterly and nodded.
"you are right."
"But you misunderstood me. I didn't come to you this time to ask you to invest in them."
Chen Fan was a little surprised and looked over curiously.
Zhou Honghai took out a cigarette from his pocket and motioned to Chen Fan, who shook his head.
So Zhou Honghai lit one himself and took a puff before continuing to speak.
"In that meeting some time ago, their team conflicts were irreconcilable."
"The team is currently divided into two groups. One group supports Lao Han and is willing to continue working."
"The other group has become disillusioned and decided to quit."
Zhou Honghai introduced: "The leader of this group who is preparing to quit is called Liang Shichu. He is an alumnus of ours, but he is not in the same class. He is one class younger than us."
"This kid is also very capable and independent, so he often talks back to Lao Han."
Chen Fan glanced at Zhou Honghai: "You have a good relationship with him?"
Zhou Honghai shook his head: "No matter how good the relationship is, it is not as strong as the relationship between me and Lao Han."
"The reason I'm looking for you is, firstly, we are all alumni, and I really can't bear to see these technical geeks get defeated like this. Secondly, I want to ask if you are interested in becoming their investor."
"Now Liang Shichu has made it clear that he will withdraw from the team with some people. Either everyone will go their separate ways and find companies to work for, or they will get financing and go it alone."
"Last time I saw you, you seemed to be quite interested in starting a business on the Internet, so I wanted to ask you if you were interested."
Chen Fan's heart trembled slightly.
To be honest, he was a little moved by Zhou Honghai's words.
He found that it was really difficult to research the project alone. If he could recruit these people into his team, it would definitely get twice the result with half the effort.
Moreover, Zhou Honghai said in great detail that these people decided to "break up" because of their different philosophies, and it was not because they lacked technical strength.
What a God-given opportunity.
As soon as I wanted to sleep, someone handed me a pillow.
Chen Fan was excited in his heart, but it didn't show on his face.
Instead, he showed a rather helpless expression.
"As you can see, I'm so busy right now that I really don't have any extra time."
Zhou Honghai smiled and said, "I'm just trying to calm you down. Whether you can succeed or not depends entirely on your own decision."
Chen Fan pondered for two seconds.
"Well, you help me contact Liang Shichu, and I'll meet him and have a chat."
"Whether I want to invest or not, I have to judge what kind of person he is."
Zhou Honghai smiled.
"That's no problem. I'll be able to contact him right away."
In front of Chen Fan, Zhou Honghai made a phone call, but after saying a few words, his expression became awkward.
"What's wrong?"
"He said that he is out of town now and has returned to his hometown. He will not be back for two days."
Chen Fan smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. Just wait and make a new appointment when you come back."
Zhou Honghai smiled bitterly and shook his head, "It's all your fault. I should have told him in advance."
Chen Fan felt even more relieved.
This at least proved that Zhou Honghai was indeed looking for him out of loyalty to his alumni, and was not colluding with the other party to defraud him of his investment.
…
Luo Wenjie was very efficient. It only took two days to check all the information about Teacher Liu.
In the office of Xingkong Internet Cafe, Luo Wenjie handed several pieces of paper to Chen Fan.
"Let's see, is it him?"
Chen Fan glanced at the person in the photo and nodded.
"it's him."
Luo Wenjie chuckled.
"Don't tell me, our teacher Liu is really a talent."
Seeing Chen Fan's confusion, Luo Wenjie pointed to the pieces of paper in Chen Fan's hand and reminded him with a smile.
"Look back, there will be a surprise..."
