Wang Meigui's schoolmate, Zhao Guan, was also facing the test of partnership.
His partner's expenses in China were getting bigger and bigger, and many of them were completely spent on eating, drinking, and having fun, which made him a little overwhelmed.
He was beginning to wonder if his partner was spending all his money on the right path.
Zhao Guan had been back to China before, and he knew that it cost money to build connections.
However, he felt that everything was out of his control, and the expenses might increase to the point where he could not continue working with them.
The partner said that he wanted to give cash to his connections. As for how much, he told Zhao Guan not to care. He just needed to develop the project well and use it when the time came.
Zhao Guan was very unhappy that he was not clear about the company's financial situation.
Zhao Guan decided to return to China to take a look.
Zhao Guan's partner, Ai Zijing, set up the company in the Pioneer Park of a university in Beijing.
What they did was online payment.
However, just like how the Ministry of Radio and Television said that it would rectify the video website sooner or later, the Ministry of Finance also said that it would rectify the online payment system.
Therefore, Zhao Guan's partner, Ai Zijing, put all his effort into the banking department.
If the Ministry of Finance issued a ban, who was qualified and who wasn't? A single document could cripple Ai Zijing's many years of hard work. Therefore, public relations fees were a fee that had to be spent generously.
Zhao Guan returned to Beijing and checked into a hotel near the Pioneer Park.
A budget hotel. Zhao Guan thought that he didn't need to spend a lot of money to stay in a four or five-star hotel to show off his status.
Ai Zijing came to pick him up. They had bought an Audi in China as a ride.
Zhao Guan saw Ai Zijing, but he was not happy. He followed Ai Zijing to the company to take a look.
The business park seemed to be newly built, and their company was in the newly built park.
Ai Zijing had probably told the employees in advance that the company's Director Zhao, Zhao Guan, would be coming for an inspection today and required everyone to dress formally.
As soon as Zhao Guan entered the office, all the employees stood up and said,""Welcome, Director Zhao."
Zhao Guan was really shocked by this scene.
There were a total of ten people in the company, and only three or four of them had long-distance contact with Zhao Guan. It seemed that these three or four people were the core of the business. Zhao Guan did not know the others and had never interacted with them. Looking at them, they seemed to have just graduated. They must be the group of people hired to fill in the numbers.
Ai Zijing seemed to have a headache these days.
Zhao Guan stopped transferring funds to the company and even said that he wanted to come over and take a look.
It was obvious that she did not trust him.
The venture capitalists that he contacted did not reply, and the banking authorities were unclear.
If something happened to Zhao Guan, then Ai Zijing's money would be wasted.
Director Zhao had a square face and wore glasses. One could tell at a glance that he was an engineer.
As for Ai Zijing, he had a slender triangular face. At a glance, he was a tactful person.
The two of them got together because of a law firm conference in Silicon Valley.
Silicon Valley, especially Paloalto, often hosted parties hosted by investors, lawyers, and business groups.
Zhao Guan had met Ai Zijing at a cocktail party organized by a law firm.
In fact, they were both active members of their respective Alumni Associations and had long heard of each other.
The law firm's cocktail party was held to attract start-ups to register their companies in Cayman Island.
At that time, there was a trend that even famous big companies moved to the Caymans to register so that they would not have to pay taxes.
Of course, since you weren't really going to the Pacific Islands, you had to register with a law firm and have the law firm keep a mailbox for you.
In other words, the management of this company is basically handed over to this law firm.
The price was fair.
A Chinese student who was an international student went to the Caymans in person, but the final feedback was that it was better to let a law firm represent them. It was too troublesome to run around by himself.
Zhao Guan and Ai Zijing had also carefully considered joining forces.
It was Zhao Guan that Ai Zijing had found.
Everyone in the industry knew that Zhao Guan's business was good.
As for Ai Zijing, although he was also in the online payment industry, he still admired Zhao Guan.
Ai Zijing was a lively person with a wide network of friends. He had long known that Silicon Valley could not accommodate him, so he had secretly prepared to return to China to start a business for two or three years.
Just like Wang Meigui, he had been looking for a technical director. From a certain perspective, he had long taken a fancy to Zhao Guan, but how to convince Zhao Guan to cooperate with him and how much shares each party would have needed to be negotiated.
The cocktail party was held in Paloalto. Ai Zijing dressed himself up in a suit and appeared at the cocktail party in a very business-like manner.
As for Zhao Guan, he only wore a branded shirt and arrived at the banquet half-casually and half-formally. Zhao Guan arrived a little late and happened to sit next to Ai Zijing.
