My Virtual Girlfriend-Chapter 162 Song Chuang Joins

After saying goodbye to Chen Yan, Song Chuang returned to the hotel and once again took out Chen Yan’s partnership detailed plan to study it carefully.

Although he had already seen the plan during dinner, when he looked at it again, he still felt somewhat shocked.

Such generous conditions... were they really for him?

Was Chen Yan’s new company really going to pay dividends based on spending rather than profit?

Was this not like a pie falling from the sky?

After seriously reviewing the entire plan for the third time, Song Chuang closed his eyes and began to simulate the loopholes and traps of the plan in his mind.

However, no matter how he deduced or judged, he felt... as if he would not have any risk at all.

Only comparatively speaking, the 20% stake he would hold in the new company... seemed a bit like a chicken rib, and also presented a hidden danger.

Actually, from the beginning, when Song Chuang discussed shares with Chen Yan, he truly wanted to transform from a high-level employee to a capitalist in Chen Yan’s company.

After all, without shares, no matter how much money he made, it would be hard to enjoy the company’s dividends.

And with the shares, once the company developed, his wealth would multiply.

Once it went public, he could even achieve financial freedom.

But now... looking at it.

Could he earn more with a bigger share than what the new company could earn by spending money?

If he spent money wisely, it wouldn’t be a problem to spend two or three billion yuan on several movies and TV dramas for Lu Man within a year.

And with two or three billion yuan, he could get tens of millions in dividends in just a year.

Working for a few years, he could also save up one or two billion yuan in his hands.

But to cash out one or two billion yuan through shares, that would require a ten-year cycle, step by step developing the company to be strong, going public, and then slowly reducing his holdings after the lock-up period.

So... his shares compared to this dividend seemed a bit like a chicken rib.

Moreover, holding this portion of shares could also potentially become a hidden danger for him in the future.

After all, according to Chen Yan’s plan, the company would keep losing money.

Only with Chen Yan’s continuous capital injections could the company maintain its operations.

There were two ways of capital injection.

One was direct capital injection to acquire shares. Under this method, Song Chuang’s shares would be diluted through successive capital injections.

The second was... borrowing. In other words, Chen Yan would continuously borrow money from his other companies in the name of this new company.

Thus, the new company’s debts would soar.

By that time, the 20% stake in Song Chuang’s hands would have to bear 20% of the debt.

This was a significant hidden danger.

Thinking of this, Song Chuang looked over the entire plan again and, after much contemplation, silently made a decision.

Since the company operated in such a peculiar way, there arguably was no need for him to hold shares.

It might just bring trouble down the line.

Better to use this as a bargaining chip to gain a bit more benefit.

Just earn more money directly and accumulate capital.

After a few years, wouldn’t it be better to start his own company with several billion yuan in cash?

With that in mind, Song Chuang picked up a pen from the table and began to modify the related plan.

In this plan, he repositioned himself as a high-level employee. He could receive a high salary each year, as well as the team share promised by Chen Yan.

Apart from exchanging shares for salary, there was no difference from the conditions initiated by Chen Yan, which was what he believed Chen Yan would agree to.

After making certain amendments, Song Chuang put down his pen and began to ponder another issue: Did Chen Yan really have that much money?

He had also investigated Chen Yan recently, but Chen Yan’s publicly available information looked very normal. Normal to the point of being like an ordinary person. freewёbnoνel.com

However, that was the most abnormal part.

Because, Chen Yan rose too quickly, and in the process of rising, had intricate relationships with the Zhao Group.

This was simply not something an ordinary person could accomplish.

Song Chuang always felt there was some connection.

He couldn’t help but think back to before he resigned when he was chatting with his old leader, the chairman of Quanmei Group, hearing some gossip.

It was said... The head of the Zhao Family, Zhao Qingtian, had an illegitimate child on Qin Island...

Could it be...

Was this rumor true?

Thinking of this, a sharp gleam flashed in Song Chuang’s eyes.

If so, it seemed to explain the confidence and source of wealth of his new boss.

And upon closer thought, it seemed reasonable for a super-rich second-generation to set up a company specifically to promote a female celebrity.

After all... ordinary rich second-generations at most indulge in food, drink, and entertainment.

Only super-rich second-generations have their families’ backing to start businesses...

That was definitely the most prodigal approach.

If his new boss truly was a member of the Zhao Family, then he would need to take his work more seriously, at least to justify the generous remuneration, or else causing trouble with the Zhao Group could mean numerous problems for himself...

......

The next morning, Chen Yan received a call from Song Chuang.

Over the phone, Song Chuang agreed to join Chen Yan’s new company and, with Chen Yan’s support, set up a new film and television distribution company.

Furthermore, he promised that Chen Yan only needed to provide funds; he would take care of everything himself, from hiring and obtaining qualifications to daily operations, without Chen Yan having to worry about anything.

Chen Yan was quite happy to be a hands-off boss.

Later, taking advantage of Chen Yan’s good mood, Song Chuang also made a request.

He had thought it over and felt that the offer made by Chen Yan was incredibly generous, plus the amount of capital Chen Yan was investing, he felt ashamed to take so many shares.

Hence, he pondered whether he could discuss with Chen Yan about not needing the shares. Simply giving him his salary as usual would suffice.

As for his salary, it wasn’t much, just five million yuan a year.

Chen Yan truly didn’t care at all about shares, salary, or anything of the like.

After all, the company was created as a money-printing machine for distributing Lu Man’s series.

However, Song Chuang having shares didn’t warrant reimbursement, while receiving a salary did. So with a grand gesture, Chen Yan agreed and even added one million yuan to Song Chuang’s annual salary.

That day, having agreed on the terms, Chen Yan and Song Chuang formally signed the employment contract and related agreements under the witness of lawyers from both parties.

After the contract was signed, Chen Yan immediately transferred 10 million yuan to Song Chuang as the startup capital for the new company, instructing him to go to Tiandu to operate the distribution company matters.

Compared to the production company, which could be registered anywhere, the distribution company was different.

It needed to establish good relationships with various cinemas and the administration, so it would have unparalleled advantages in Tiandu.

As Song Chuang was about to leave, Chen Yan also promised that once the company registration was completed, the subsequent 40 million yuan would be transferred immediately.

To be honest, before receiving the money, Song Chuang did have some doubts about Chen Yan’s identity and financial resources.

But upon seeing Chen Yan so casually wire over 10 million yuan, he was completely reassured.

With such a lavish style, not batting an eye at 10 million yuan, if Chen Yan weren’t a super-rich second-generation, Song Chuang would be willing to write his name backwards!

After all, if Chen Yan was really like what was shown in his information, a rich first-generation who independently started his business and built such a large empire, then Chen Yan certainly wouldn’t be so nonchalant.

A rich first-generation knows the toil behind every penny. Sometimes, they’re even more frugal than the average person...

After getting the money, Song Chuang immediately took a flight to Tiandu and began to prepare for the new company.

While Chen Yan strolled back to the game company.

Recently, the company team had gradually begun to gel. And perhaps the Divine Summoning Incense had indeed summoned talents because, after observation, this batch of employees’ abilities and characters were all quite good.

After discussing with several veterans, Chen Yan also officially started the production of a new game.

Although Chen Yan was gradually stepping away from tedious work, he still needed to be present in the company from time to time.

After inspecting each department in the company and understanding their progress, Chen Yan returned to his office.

He closed the office door, returned to his desk, and then took out his mobile phone to check the game.

In the game, the "Profession Wealth" changed directly from 0 to 10 million yuan.

This signified that the game recognized the 10 million yuan as spending for Lu Man’s profession.

Thinking back to when he had tried every means to earn a starting fund of 1 million yuan for Boss Qiao Qiao, considering her feelings and the rationality of spending, it was like losing 100 hairs a day.

Now, without Lu Man’s consent, he could easily earn 20 million yuan. How cool!

Although this money was easy to earn because of the company’s startup.

Once the company got going, he couldn’t just inject capital and make money at will.

But... having built these three or four companies, he was about to earn a billion yuan. His small goal was about to be achieved! That was cool too.

Thinking of this, a "bold" idea suddenly popped into Chen Yan’s mind.

"Eh... If I use such an excuse to set up a few more companies, like special effects companies, prop companies, etc., and give each company a billion yuan, wouldn’t I quickly become worth tens of billions of yuan?"

No sooner had this thought appeared.

Chen Yan’s phone vibrated.

He glanced down and saw the screen once again popping up with those 99 anti-cheating clauses...

Chen Yan: ...

So perceptive, huh.

Is this a warning that I can’t just indiscriminately print money?

Fine then...

I’ll just make money in a legitimate manner.

After all, making money legitimately is fast too...

....

In the next two days, the money-taking Song Chuang vanished as if he had disappeared, presumably preparing for some major action.

Meanwhile, Yu Qiao Qiao, who had been trapped in exams for a week, was finally freed.

On Friday afternoon, Chen Yan received a call from Yu Qiao Qiao.
