According to the notice released by the official account of Jingzhou University, Tao Zerong knew that the developer of the image repair tool was a student. Because of this, he took advantage of the weekend to plan the acquisition proposal and reported to Zhang Zhaojie's office first thing when he arrived at the company. .
I just hope that the company can buy this software and use it to upgrade the platform’s beauty function.
When the company gains benefits, he will be the biggest contributor.
Based on the stereotype of college students with no social experience, he believed that the offer of five million was not low.
As long as you negotiate carefully and convince the other party, there is no reason why you can't win.
To this end, he also thought about many negotiation methods on the way.
But who would have thought that the final negotiation partner would not be the software developer himself.
Of course, they can also directly bypass the company and go to Jingzhou University, but regardless of whether they can find someone, they are afraid that the school will not buy their account.
After briefly analyzing the current situation, Tao Zerong finally decided to stay and talk for the time being.
After all, I have come here, so I can't go back to Zhang Zhaojie's place to do business like this.
"Are you authorized to represent the company?"
Tao Zerong watched Meng Songyan ask again, while looking at the surroundings with the corner of his eye.
Although it looks very empty and simple, and the number of employees can be counted on one hand, everyone's eyes are full of passion and confidence, which is a true portrayal of the company's early days.
This made him feel even more bitter.
Because this shows that the company boss is ambitious, so he will definitely not sell the company's first product easily.
"I think I have it. Please come with me." Meng Songyan made a gesture of invitation and led Tao Zerong and the others to his office. Passing by Zheng Jianhao's workstation, he did not forget to make arrangements: "Xiaohao, how many seconds do you need?" A glass of water delivered to my office.”
"Okay, Manager Meng." Zheng Jianhao nodded and responded.
Meng Songyan's office is no different from the outside, except for a desk and a few chairs.
For Tao Zerong and other working elites who are accustomed to sitting on the sofa, they seem a little at a loss.
But Meng Songyan kept asking them to sit down.
"Everyone, please take a seat."
"The company has just started to operate, and many things have not been purchased. Please forgive me."
"It doesn't matter."
In order to maintain the company's image and his own demeanor, Tao Zerong responded generously and reluctantly found a chair to sit down.
The same goes for several other people around him.
Soon Zheng Jianhao came in with several cups of tea, handed them to everyone, stood next to Meng Songyan, and did not turn around to leave.
There are only a few people in the company, and when someone comes to discuss cooperation, they must help calm the scene.
Tao Zerong knew that he had lost the initiative. After introducing each other, he simply went straight to the point. He took out a document from his bag and handed it to Meng Songyan: "This is our company's acquisition plan. Manager Meng can take a look at it first."
"OK."
Meng Songyan took the document and looked at it carefully.
Soon he frowned.
"Mr. Tao, don't you think five million is too little?" The next second he closed the document and raised his head to question.
The image repair tool has been paid for hundreds of thousands of times since it was launched. Douyu only paid five million to buy out the entire image repair tool software. I really don’t know who gave them the courage.
Although Tao Zerong comes from a technical background, he can be considered a veteran after working in the workplace for so many years.
Facing this question, I didn’t feel embarrassed at all. I immediately came up with the speech I had prepared for a long time: “I think Manager Meng should also know that all the data of this software are currently showing a downward trend. We gave this number after Calculated in detail.”
In fact, according to Meng Songyan's plan, he will indeed use technology to cooperate with other companies.
But it’s not this kind of buyout.
Seeing that the other party was quite determined, he didn't bother to waste time and immediately stated his psychological price.
"I'm so sorry."
"Our boss has long said that Deepin Technology will only adopt a technology licensing operating model."
"We can provide technical support for portrait beautification models, but your company needs to pay an annual licensing fee."
Tao Zerong really didn't expect that the quotations between the two parties were so different. This was beyond the scope of his rights. Although he had basically guessed the final result, he was still a little unwilling to explain the situation to Zhang Zhaojie.
"I need to ask the company for instructions on this, please wait a moment."
"sure."
After saying this, he took out his mobile phone, stood up, walked outside the office and made a call.
Meng Songyan glanced at the other person's back, picked up the water glass in front of him and drank calmly.
Within two minutes, Tao Zerong walked in with a dark face, obviously being reprimanded by the company leader.
"I'm sorry, Manager Meng, I'm afraid this cooperation will have to be suspended."
Holding back the anger in his heart, he said something to Meng Songyan, and immediately took the others away.
"let's go."
After the other party left, Song Yupeng pushed the door in from the outside and complained very unhappily: "These people really think that we are so easy to deceive. They just want to buy the software if they give us some money. They don't study technology every day. Think of good things." Apparently he heard Meng Songyan's conversation just now.
When he was in school, he often heard that a certain technology developed by his seniors was stolen by outside companies at a price far below the market value, so he really didn't like such companies.
"It is their own loss not to choose to cooperate with us. What we have to do is to ensure that the new version will be launched smoothly tomorrow."
Meng Songyan still spoke calmly, but the strong confidence in his eyes proved his expectation for the new version to be launched.
This confidence comes from the image restoration tools developed by Deepin Technology and Xu Yun.
"Don't worry, manager, the server and bandwidth will be increased, which can definitely guarantee the user experience."
"The promotional video for the new version has also been produced and will be released simultaneously with the new version tomorrow." Next to him, Zheng Jianhao took over Song Yupeng's words and added.
In the following time, Song Yupeng and Zheng Jianhao continued to confirm the details to ensure that there would be no accidents tomorrow.
Meng Songyan took out his mobile phone and wrote down what happened just now and reported it to Xu Yun.
If a company is willing to cooperate, it means that the direction of making image restoration tools free of charge is very correct. When the popularity and user group become larger and larger, technology licensing fees will only continue to rise.
The next day.
at noon.
With the release of a video titled "Make Photos Move" by Deepin Technology's various platform accounts, everyone was surprised to find that the image restoration tool that became popular not long ago had an updated version.
What's more important is that it has officially announced free operation.
As soon as the news came out, it immediately aroused heated discussions among users.
And thanks to everyone's publicity, it has topped the list of hot searches on Weibo. At the same time, the number of users is increasing at a very scary rate.
