Chapter 1042: Let me tell you in advance, I have no money
They were all computer majors, and Zhang Ran knew several partners that Qiao Xi called over, including Kong Chun, Shi Xu, Fang Yan, and Huang Ping. Among them, Kong Chun and Fang Yan were a couple.
Qiao Xi spoke first, "I have already rented the office building. Here is the contract. Take a look." He lowered his head, took out the contract from his bag and placed it on the table.
Huang Ping was the first to reach out to take it. When he saw the content and amount of the contract, he looked at Zhang Ran and Qiao Xi unhappily. "In the early stages of a business, we keep pouring money into it. We are still students. It will be enough to rent an office. Why do we have to rent the entire eleventh floor? The rent is so expensive. Who can afford it?" He took such a big step, and he was not afraid of falling to his death.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were focused on him, Huang Ping put down the rental contract and said, "I don't agree to this rental contract."
Zhang Ran looked at the other three people and said, "Take a look at the contract as well. If you have any comments, feel free to give us your feedback."
Fang Yan picked up the rental contract and looked at it with Kong Chun. After reading it, they exchanged glances and felt that the venue was too large and the rent was too expensive.
Only Shi Xu didn't read the rental contract. Zhang Ran reminded him, "You don't want to read it?"
Shi Xu glanced at Qiao Xi, then said to Zhang Ran: "I have no objection."
He had no objection, and Zhang Ran looked at the other three people: "You have already read the rental contract, and it has come into effect after signing. If you disagree, you can withdraw now."
Huang Ping stood up and said, "I'm leaving." He turned to look at his roommate Long Chun and asked, "You're not leaving?"
Kong Chun wanted to stay and continue watching, so he shook his head at Huang Ping.
Seeing that he was the only one who withdrew, Huang Ping stared at Kong Chun without giving up, "The early stage of starting a business is very difficult, and we try to save costs as much as possible. Even if the company is opened, all the profits will go to the landlord. Are you really not going with me?"
Kong Chun was a little shaken, and he subconsciously glanced at Qiao Xi.
He was well aware of Qiao Xi's abilities. He had won numerous awards in various competitions and had made a lot of money just by selling small games in the past two years. Starting a company was a bit risky.
Seeing Kong Chun was silent for too long, Huang Ping snorted coldly, "If you don't leave, then I won't leave either." He glanced at the others and finally landed on Qiao Xi, "I also contributed to the game being developed and designed. If I withdraw now, I will lose a lot." He sat down again, "Let me make it clear in advance that I have no money."
Qiao Xi frowned and was about to speak when Zhang Ran put his hand on the back of her hand and spoke first: "Since you don't invest money, then you will be working normally and get paid monthly."
Huang Ping rolled his eyes, "How much a month? I won't do it if it's too little."
Zhang Ran smiled and glanced at the others, "Your salary will naturally be decided by all of us after discussion."
After hearing this, Huang Ping shut up.
After showing the rental contract to everyone, Qiao Xi took out a list and handed it to Zhang Ran, which detailed the monthly rent, decoration, purchase of office supplies and other expenses.
Zhang Ran read it and then circulated it to others.
As they looked at it, Qiao Xi explained, "The decoration cost is calculated according to the medium standard, and the office supplies such as tables, chairs and benches are calculated according to the lowest standard. However, since we are running a game company, the computer configuration must be the best, so we use the most expensive one."
After she finished speaking, no one answered, so Shi Xu spoke up: "The decoration level can't be too low. If a customer comes, the company will be the face of the company. We are all computer majors. If the computer configuration is not good, I'm sure you know how much it will affect the game development."
