Chapter 300: Share the Benefits
Chapter 300: Share the Benefits
An Rushong is certainly confident about the future of NGN software, but his confidence is not simply based on the few simple updates that NGN software is going to make this year. His real source of confidence is the mobile version of NGN software that is compatible with the Android mobile phone system.
Now, the relevant APP program has been developed and is waiting for the launch of HTC's first Android phone. Once that day comes, the NGN software that spans both Apple and Android systems will become the world's first instant messaging software that can support both Apple and Android mobile systems.
Most importantly, with the launch of the mobile version, the "Photo Wall" function will maximize its advantages. Users can take photos at any time, upload photos at any time using their mobile phones, and show them to their fans, thereby maximizing the community function of the software.
How could An Rusong not have confidence in such a software? How could the investment circle not have confidence in it?
Feeling An Rusong's confident attitude, Bai Jinjun hesitated for a few seconds before taking out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took out one and handed it to An Rusong, saying, "Haha, it seems that those guys are not wrong. Our Rusong is indeed a company decision maker with strong confidence."
Hmm?
An Rushong vaguely felt that the other party seemed to have something else in his words.
Bai Jinjun obviously didn't intend to play any tricks in front of him. He took the draft, put it on his knees, and said, "Rusong, since you are one of us, I will tell you something directly."
"You say, Brother Jin Jun," An Rushong said with a smile.
"NGN has only been around for a short time, but it has developed very quickly. An IT company that started from scratch and became worth tens of billions of dollars in just a few months is a miracle in the eyes of many people," Bai Jinjun lit a cigarette for himself and handed the lighter to him, continuing, "Of course, it is also a huge money maker."
An Rusong took the lighter and lit the cigarette in his mouth. To be honest, Bai Jinjun's last sentence made his heart tremble, but his face remained absolutely calm.
"Mr. Qingxi is the new president, but you should also know that being a president does not mean he can decide everything. In many matters, he needs to take into account the interests of all parties. The same is true for the formulation of a draft decision like this." Bai Jinjun continued, "Mr. Qingxi can propose such a draft, but who can ultimately participate in it is not something he can decide on his own."
"That's natural," An Rushong nodded in agreement while smoking a cigarette.
"This time, Mr. Qingxi took out this draft with the original idea of hoping to win a part of the 15 trillion won policy support for your NGN," Bai Jinjun said, "but the specific amount is still uncertain. Of course, Mr. Qingxi naturally hopes to give NGN more support, but this kind of thing requires more people to agree."
Glancing at An Rusong, he lowered his voice slightly and said, "So, what I mean is that you'd better do some work on your side, for example, take out some dividend-paying shares from NGN's shares and build a secret equity pool so that more people can benefit from the development of NGN. In this way, it will be easier for Mr. Qingxi to promote subsequent work."
Okay, An Rushong understood what the other party meant in seconds, and he even restored the whole process in an instant.
In An Rusong's view, this so-called draft of the "IT Korea Future Strategy" is most likely a collection of interests of multiple parties.
A simple guess is that the 150 trillion won of private investment is mostly from the chaebols who support Lee Min-bo and need to reasonably avoid taxes in this way. This part of the investment is used to give back to these chaebols. The 15 trillion won of government investment is used to distribute dividends to politicians and individuals who support Lee Min-bo.
If Li Minbo wanted to distribute dividends to those who supported him, he naturally could not take the money out of his own pocket. Although he was very rich, he did not have the ability to distribute dividends to so many people. Therefore, using the money in the national treasury was undoubtedly the best option.
But it would be too arrogant to openly take the country's money and distribute it to his own people. If he was targeted, he would be in big trouble. Therefore, he had to think of a safer way to take out the money from the national treasury and distribute it in a way that seemed to have no problems.
Which method is more reliable? Haha, take a look at the draft of "IT Korea Future Strategy", isn't this the way to go?
Li Minbo came up with a draft plan to allocate a portion of the 15 trillion won policy support funds to An Rusong's NGN company. Then, An Rusong would set up a special account to pay those who participated in the dividend distribution. Isn't this a done deal?
Look at this method, and then think about the systematic bribery case that was exposed by Samsung before. Aren’t the two the same approach?
Of course, considering the systematic bribery scandal that was exposed by Samsung, if NGN is involved in such a thing, there is a possibility that it will be exposed in the future. But as long as An Rushong is not directly involved, he does not have to worry about prosecutors sending him to jail after the incident is exposed.
The most important thing is that he is cooperating with NSA. Considering his fully cooperative attitude, NSA will definitely protect him even if something goes wrong in the future. After thinking about this and looking back at the draft of the so-called "IT Korea Future Strategy", An Rusong knew that Li Minbo's initial consideration was not to support his NGN company, but to use him as a channel to pass on such a large benefit to him.
"Brother Jin Jun, there shouldn't be any problem here." After thinking through the whole story, An Rusong knew what attitude he should take. He smiled and said, "But you also know that I am obviously not the only shareholder of NGN. As investors, although DFJ and Apple do not have much say in the company's decision-making, they have the right to know. Therefore, any form of equity change needs to notify both parties in advance."
Bai Jinjun understood what he meant, so when An Rusong said this, he smiled and interrupted, "I understand your concerns. What I just said is just a preliminary proposal. As for more specific matters, I will introduce someone to you and you can discuss it with her later."
As he said this, he took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to An Rushong.
An Rushong took the business card and looked at it carefully.
The name marked on the business card is "Kwon Ji-hye" and the identity is "Vice President of EG Company". In addition to these, there is also a telephone number and an NGN number on the business card. In today's South Korea, there are already quite a few people who add NGN numbers to their business cards, which shows how popular NGN is in South Korea.
Just looking at the name, Quan Zhihui might be a woman, but An Rushong has no impression of this EG company at all.
"Dong dong!"
Just when An Rushong wanted to ask for the specific information of the woman on the business card, the study door was knocked again from outside.
"Come in," Bai Jinjun gave An Rushong a look, indicating that he should put away the business card. Then he stood up and put the draft back into the drawer. Then he raised his voice and spoke.
The door was pushed open, and Yu Yuanlong poked his head in from outside and whispered, "Director, Secretary Song is here."
"Oh," Bai Jinjun obviously frowned. He didn't say anything, but a hesitant expression appeared on his face.
"Brother Jin Jun, I'll leave first," An Rusong stood up tactfully. He put out his cigarette in the ashtray and said with a smile, "I'll contact Chairman Quan later."
"Well then," Bai Jinjun's brows relaxed. He looked at An Rusong and smiled, "When you come into contact with this Chairman Quan, you may as well make some concessions where necessary, but you must also stick to your position when necessary. You must understand that Mr. Qingxi is very concerned about the development of NGN."
"I understand, Brother Jin Jun," An Rushong nodded and said.
He knew in his heart that Bai Jinjun's last words must have been Li Minbo's intention. Otherwise, as Li Minbo's butler, he would not have taken the initiative to give such a clear position.
What does this mean? It's very simple. It means that Li Minbo hopes to use An Rusong to distribute such a sum of black money, but at the same time, he still values the potential of NGN software in public opinion and public relations. So, this guy hopes that An Rusong will make more concessions on the issue of "money", but at the same time, he doesn't want those who share the money to go too far, thus affecting the close relationship between him and An Rusong.
With Li Minbo's clear position, An Rusong's mentality was stable. In fact, with the situation created by NGN Company, he no longer had to worry too much about the political blow. Even when facing Li Minbo, the new president, he did not have to be too servile.
But then again, maintaining friendly relations with the Blue House without affecting its own basic interests, so as to obtain as much policy support as possible, is obviously more beneficial to the development of NGN. An Rushong must be out of his mind to disobey Li Minbo.
As for whether participating in these money-sharing activities will dirty your hands, please don't be so naive. In this world, if you want to be a superior person, don't think about keeping your hands clean.
