Chapter 403 The Halo of 100x Success Rate!

However, scientific research is very expensive.

In 2008, Huawei's R&D investment reached 104.69 billion yuan, accounting for 8.4% of its revenue.

This year, the figure reached 237 billion.
Qi Hao's so-called 10 billion yuan fortune is mostly in the form of stocks, which are not easy to liquidate.

Large expenses can only be covered by loans.

Qi Hao is also considering setting up a private equity fund within Donghao Venture Capital, initially targeting internal employees to attract cash that they don't know how to invest.

This is a very promising endeavor.

Huawei did that before.

Donghao Group currently has over a thousand employees, and their salaries are all quite high, generally exceeding the city's average wage, with some earning millions of yuan annually.

People generally have financial management needs.

To manage their finances, several senior executives even partnered to establish a small investment company.

But they only dared to engage in small-scale activities.

If Qi Hao didn't invest, they wouldn't dare to follow suit. They weren't as calm as Qi Hao when it came to long-term investments, and their investments were mostly in films and television dramas produced by the company.

However, not all of these films and television dramas are profitable.

There are also projects that lose money.

For example, "Kuiba".

In addition, the film and television projects invested in by the company will definitely be distributed to Feiyang Media. For animated films, there is also Xihao Animation Film Studio. Sometimes, some will also be distributed to other production companies to ensure that allies also get a share.

All that was left for these executives was a sip of soup.

You don't earn much money either.

Their small investment company has a very low capital utilization rate, with hundreds of millions of yuan sitting idle on its books.

This money can be used to alleviate Qi Hao's cash flow pressure.

He has great confidence in the projects he invests in.

Companies like Apple, Xiaomi, DJI, and Tesla all have system endorsements; they are products selected by the system and will definitely not lose money in the future.

His money will only keep increasing.

Needless to say, technological research and development is a different story. While others have to overcome numerous difficulties in their research and development, Qi Hao's situation is like an open-book exam, where he knows the correct answer directly and is just going through the motions.

Once a technological achievement is "developed," it can naturally be monetized.

Whether providing technical services or technical application products, they will make a fortune in the future.

They should learn from Huawei's approach and implement an employee stock ownership plan through the labor union, using virtual stock dividends and trading to distribute profits.

Qi Hao plans to use people within the company as a pilot program first.

If the response is positive, then it can be opened to bank customers.

Qi Hao's company is perfectly legitimate and has absolutely nothing to do with illegal fundraising.

With the money issue resolved, the next step was figuring out how to deliver the big gift package.

Taking it out directly is definitely not an option.

There's simply no way to explain its origin. Surely Qi Hao wouldn't say he has a relative abroad who's a big name in the European and American scientific community and secretly transferred the technology to China.

This kind of thing can be found out easily with an investigation.

The system can't conjure up a relative who can win the Nobel Prize for him.

As for how to get rid of this so-called technology gift package, the system also provided a solution for handling the aftermath.

Qi Hao could start a technology company.

By establishing a research institute within the technology company, and studying the technologies contained in this "gift package" within the institute, one can achieve twice the results with half the effort, and research anything desired in a very short time.

A god-level technology research institute!

A halo that increases success rate by a hundredfold!

Moreover, the research direction is free of error; it is all aimed directly at the correct answer.

Setting up a company is not difficult.

Since obtaining Xiaomi's business information, Qi Hao has been thinking about establishing another technology company outside of Xiaomi to utilize this business information.

Later, they obtained business information from DJI.

Therefore, this technology company could also add some businesses related to DJI.

This coincides with the system's idea.

Of course, it's also possible that Tongzi saw Qi Hao's actions and got inspiration from them.

Setting up a technology company is a big deal.

If a typical large corporation wants to increase its investment in scientific research, it will almost certainly encounter various obstacles.

Investing only yields quick profits.

Who cares about your grand plans for the next century or the distant future of your company?

All they know is that scientific research is a bottomless pit.

Donghao Group doesn't have this problem because Qi Hao is a unique boss.

Everyone else was just working for him.

Moreover, his life experience is legendary enough that he is seen as the "Little Buffett" by the world, and he has never made a mistake since his debut.

Even Lao Tian, ​​who had always followed him, and James Ryden, whose abilities were abnormally strong, both treated Qi Hao as a legendary figure.

They only interpret Qi Hao's words; they never question them.

"What, a loan of one billion?"

Lao Tian and Qi Hao had actually discussed the issue of technology companies more than once.

Anyone with eyes can see it.

Smartphones are the next big thing; once you get on board, even wild boars can soar to the sky.

However, the two had previously agreed that the initial scale should not be too large, and that it should be set up in their own industrial park. The initial business would revolve around mobile phones, including mobile phone hardware development and design, system software, and other design-related work.

We'll first develop some technology before launching a mobile phone brand.

Now Qi Hao has suddenly changed his mind.

They need to come up with 1 billion yuan at once.

The initial investment was enormous, increasing twentyfold from the original plan of 50 million.

Furthermore, they requested a particularly good resettlement area. A particularly good one…

That's money.

Even if it's not buying, but just renting, it's still a huge investment.

"We can follow Zheng Ce and go to the Science and Technology City to talk to them. We'll say we'll invest 1 billion yuan initially, and no less than 10 billion yuan within five years. Lao Tian, ​​entertainment is just a side issue, and the internet is fleeting. The real stars and the sea are in science and technology..."

Qi Hao began his performance.

“We don’t have any experience, and you’re investing so much money. Aren’t you afraid of wasting it?”

Old Tian was mainly terrified.

When Zhonghao Entertainment first started, it was only a few million in scale. Projects worth tens of millions were done in collaboration with Feiyang Media.

Are we so powerful now that we can casually spend billions?

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Go find President Dongfang and see if his bank can approve this much. I can pledge my Moutai shares as collateral."

Although Moutai's price increase has been moderate, it has remained remarkably stable, making it the highest quality collateral asset for banks.

"If you take out a loan to spend money at a high-end establishment, they definitely won't approve it. But if you use the money for scientific research, they have no reason to refuse. They are currently giving strong support to technology companies, especially those that are willing to invest in scientific research."

The "Hanxin No. 1" fraud scandal was so sensational, but it didn't stop others from continuing to commit fraud.

Qi Hao didn't just appear out of nowhere.

His family is very wealthy, and his personal assets are worth tens of billions.

With the combined valuation of his numerous companies, the total is easily several tens of billions.

Moreover, Qi Hao's side is not without technological expertise.

He invested in Xiaomi phones, DJI technology, BYD, Tesla, Apple...

It's such a natural thing to start a technology company and do scientific research now. As long as there is a relevant business connection, you can make a living just from orders from friendly forces.

Since Qi Hao had said so, Lao Tian naturally complied.

The loan process went very smoothly. Qi Hao mortgaged some of his assets and successfully obtained the loan agreement.

The 1 billion yuan didn't all arrive at once.

Even if you take the money and don't spend it, you'll still have to pay interest.

Under normal circumstances, you can take out as much money as you need from the bank.

The location selection process for technology companies is also quite simple.

The Zhongguancun Science City is planned to be so large precisely to promote technological development.

Less than a month had passed when the newly established Beihao Technology announced several research directions and began recruiting scientific and technological talents from various universities and society.

The speed is truly extraordinary.

Lei Jun even made a special call to inquire about the situation.

Qi Hao's actions made him a little flustered.

When the cooperation was first discussed, Qi Hao demonstrated a very professional approach to mobile phone company management.

He was worried that Qi Hao's side would come in directly.

If everyone has similar business philosophies, they will inevitably become the biggest competitors.

Lei Jun had been in the underworld for many years, and Qi Hao was the person he couldn't understand the most.

If you say he's strong, he doesn't seem to be as strong as Tencent or Ali; at most, he's only slightly stronger than Xiaomi.

Xiaomi is currently valued at $40 billion.

Qi Hao's entire operation, however, is probably only worth around 20 to 30 billion.

The main reason is that the stocks Qi Hao holds directly reflect his total wealth, and his businesses are all related to film, which is the least valuable part in the financing market.

Whether a film company is good or not can be judged by the box office performance of its films.

It's not an industry that's good for storytelling.

If it's a company like Xiaomi, they can write PowerPoint presentations to boast that its market value may exceed $500 billion in the future.

Even if film companies worked themselves to death, they couldn't do it.

Because the total box office revenue of the entire film market this year will not exceed 150 billion RMB.

However, if you say that Qi Hao's side is weak, he has invested in so many high-quality companies, and his future potential is really not to be underestimated.

In addition, Qi Hao's strategic vision has amazed his peers, and even Lei Jun wanted to invite Qi Hao to join his newly established venture capital company.

Lei Jun does not want to become a competitor with Qi Hao.

He considered all other competitors as idiots, but Qi Hao was definitely not one.

Qi Hao reassured him and told him not to worry.

They indicated that the new company's current mobile phone business will focus on software and hardware support, and that we would be the best partner.

Lei Jun remained skeptical.

After all, no company makes mobile phones by starting directly from the technical aspects.

There are quite a few research directions that have been announced.

It's not just limited to mobile phone technology; there are many other projects that leave people completely baffled.

Moreover, the company seems to have no end to hiring.

The management team recruits top tech talent, and even recent graduates, as long as they meet the requirements.

Headhunting firms have included Beihao Technology in their Gold VIP program.

He's obviously incredibly ambitious.

Lei Jun is not the only one paying attention to Beihao Technology.

However, most people are just observing and curious about what this company is trying to do.

Starting in September, the series "My Love from the Star," which has fewer than thirty episodes, was filmed until the end of December.

The filming is taking so long mainly because Qi Hao is too busy.

Not only do I have to be a director and actor, but I also have to film and edit simultaneously, do tasks, read scripts, and handle many other company matters.

He could only comfort everyone by saying that the TV series was produced to a very high standard and would definitely become a classic.

It seems I'll have to reduce the number of roles I take on in the future.

This is probably the price of becoming a big shot.
