He didn't know before that there was such a connection between Duan Mingye and Hua Long.

He was also very surprised that the boss behind Hualong was so young.

Without any hesitation, Lei Jun took the initiative to extend his hand and said, "Hello, Mr. Zhou!"

Their handshake was simple but firm, neither humble nor arrogant.

Zhou Qi shook his hand and asked with a smile, "Would it be convenient for us to talk alone for a few minutes?"

Lei Jun thought for a moment and nodded, then replied, "Okay."

So the two of them came to a private office.

After sitting down, Zhou Qi smiled and said, "Thank you very much for your help."

Lei Jun waved his hand and said modestly: "Mr. Zhou is too polite. Mr. Duan and I are friends, and it is my duty to help.

Moreover, Mr. Duan paid a generous salary. In addition, several friends happened to have time, so this opportunity was also a good exercise for them. ”

This is not a compliment. The Internet industry in China is just starting out, and many talented people are full of ideals but lack opportunities.

It is not easy for someone like Lei Jun to find a job in Jingshan. Nowadays, there are not many companies like Jingshan. Most Internet companies have not yet emerged and platform resources are limited.

As for taking extra income, as long as it does not conflict with the business of your current company, there is no big problem.

For people with a computer science background, it is already very good to find a stable job in China, and many people choose to go abroad to look for opportunities.

After listening to Lei Jun's words, Zhou Qi smiled and said, "I see that the code you write is excellent. Are you interested in taking on more projects?"

"Mr. Zhou, do you also know programming?" Lei Jun was a little skeptical.

"To be honest, I don't understand."

Zhou Qi said frankly: "But I really admire your concentration and I believe the final product will be very good. Based on this, I would like to establish a long-term cooperative relationship with you."

"To be honest, I am very short of talents in this area," Zhou Qi added.

Lei Jun was slightly stunned, then he reacted and looked at Zhou Qi and said, "Boss Zhou, do you want to recruit me?"

"You can say that." Zhou Qi replied.

Lei Jun shook his head slightly and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhou, forgive me for being blunt, Hualong is now mainly involved in the fields of real estate and home appliances, not the software industry. This span is a bit too big."

Zhou Qi understood his doubts, chuckled, and explained: "In addition to real estate and home appliances, Hualong is also involved in investment. The project that Duan Mingye is currently working on is supported by Hualong Investment."

Zhou Qi smiled at Lei Jun and said gently: "The reason why I invested in Duan Mingye is because I saw his potential. And now, I am also optimistic about you and hope to support you."

"So, the term 'poaching' you just mentioned is not entirely accurate."

"Rather, I want to invest in you—an investment in the future."

Lei Jun frowned slightly, obviously confused by Zhou Qi's words. After a pause, he asked, "Mr. Zhou, what do you mean?"

“In Jingshan, you are the development manager, focusing on software development.”

Zhou Qi continued: "I would like to invite you to join us and jointly develop our own software products."

"With the advancement of the Internet, paperless office will become a trend, which will greatly improve the efficiency of collaboration and office performance among enterprises."

“And my goal is to be ahead of the times.”

“Take Hualong as an example. For electrical appliance sales alone, we manage hundreds of stores across the country.

What a huge advantage it would be if there could be a unified system to connect branches in various locations and achieve centralized management.

In addition, Hualong Real Estate also needs a system to optimize its intermediary business.

For example, brands such as Inspur Clothing, Pinliang Shop, and Shenbing Beer are in urgent need of more efficient solutions in management and operations.”

“Beyond that, there are also issues of integration of financial management.”

"You can imagine how many softwares we need to develop. Moreover, these softwares will not only meet internal needs, but also open up a broad market space."

"What I can offer you is ideas, prospect planning, market direction and financial support."

"Most importantly, I can provide you with a platform to freely display your talents without any restrictions."

"These are things that Jingshan may not be able to give you."

Lei Jun looked at Zhou Qi in some surprise. If it were someone else, they might be shocked by such a sudden opportunity.

However, Lei Jun quickly adjusted his state and responded:

"Mr. Zhou, with all due respect, this is just your one-sided statement. I can sense your confidence in the future development of software and the Internet."

"But confidence alone is not enough, we also need practical solutions."

In Lei Jun's opinion, Zhou Qi seemed to be an amateur.

After all, the software and Internet industries are different from traditional fields. Although funds can attract talents, it is far from enough.

However, in the next twenty minutes, Lei Jun's opinion of Zhou Qi changed fundamentally, from surprise to shock, and finally almost convinced.

Zhou Qi's profound understanding of the software industry and his accurate grasp of future development trends made Lei Jun feel unprecedentedly convinced.

In the end, he found that he couldn't find any reason to refute.

Everything seemed to be shrouded in Zhou Qi's words, and every sentence seemed to be an indisputable truth.

Lei Jun was deeply shocked by Zhou Qi's ideas that were beyond his time, and for a moment he found it difficult to digest this information.

Take office software for example, Zhou Qi proposed many novel ideas and unique functions.

It is simply not found in the current market. Even in the areas that Lei Jun is good at, Zhou Qi can accurately point out the existing problems and future development directions.

"Did you come up with all this?" Lei Jun couldn't help but wonder.

He could feel that Zhou Qi's idea of ​​investing in software and the Internet was not a momentary impulse. Such a mature plan was obviously the result of careful consideration.

"Mr. Zhou, did you major in computer science?" Lei Jun couldn't help but ask.

"No."

Zhou Qi replied: "But I have in-depth research on the Internet. To some extent, I can be considered your colleague."

Lei Jun smiled secretly in his heart. This was the first time he met a colleague who didn't understand the code but could talk about it fluently.

However, his mind has changed now: Zhou Qi not only has innovative ideas and development directions, but more importantly, he also has financial support.

Innovation does not lie in writing code, but in having good direction and creativity.

After a moment of silence, Lei Jun looked at Zhou Qi and said, "Mr. Zhou, what do you want me to do?"

Zhou Qi smiled and explained the terms of his cooperation with Duan Mingye, and mentioned that he was willing to support the other party's dream with 50 million start-up capital in exchange for % of his business profits.

Hearing this, Lei Jun was shocked again. This was the first time he heard of such a way of cooperation.
