Chapter 264: Chapter 264 Insightful_1

"My boss is a tech genius who works very long hours every day, which isn’t good for his health. I wish he’d balance work with rest and not push himself so hard," the robot replied.

"Damn, that’s so humanlike."

"Yeah, it even knows how to show concern for people."

"If there’s a child at home, buying a product like this to take back would absolutely be a great friend for the child."

"Yeah, it’s my first time seeing such a humanized robot."

Shen Dong and his companions were amazed and speechless.

This robot really did have some humanity.

Even Lin Yan felt his eyes getting damp when he heard the robot’s words.

Such caring words, no matter who says them, can touch people’s hearts.

Even if it is a robot speaking, it’s no exception.

"What do you think?" Shen Dong asked Zhou Chengyu and the other two.

"I think we can invest."

"I also think it’s possible."

"Shen Dong, even if you don’t invest, I will."

Zhou Chengyu and the other two had all decided to invest.

A company with such artificial intelligence is definitely worth investing in.

"It seems like we’ve all come to the same conclusion." Shen Dong smiled and looked towards Lin Yan, "Mr. Lin, how much are you looking to raise?"

He only knew from the email provided by the system that Wansheng Venture Capital would invest eighty million.

But he still needed to ask clearly how much the other party intended to raise in total.

"You’ve really decided to invest?" Lin Yan was startled, somewhat in disbelief.

He had received many potential investors, and even if they showed interest, they would say they’d consider it and then there’d be no follow-up.

This was the first time he’d encountered people ready to invest on the spot.

His four partners were also looking over, their eyes shining with hope.

If no one else invested, they really couldn’t hold on any longer.

The money they used to start the business was gathered by asking their families.

But this industry burns through cash fast.

Even though all of their families were relatively well-off, from second-tier cities, and could contribute several million each,

Even so, they couldn’t keep up.

It was impossible to ask their families for more, they couldn’t expect them to sell their houses.

"Of course, you and your team have shown me the passion and pursuit of scientists in this industry. A team like this won’t develop a bad product." Shen Dong pointed at the robot on the table, "This little robot fully proves that point. It has great market potential."

As Shen Dong finished speaking, the robot chimed in, "This boss really has good taste!"

Shen Dong laughed, "Such an intelligent robot, it’s hard not to like it."

Zhou Chengyu and the other two nodded their heads in agreement.

Lin Yan took a deep breath and said, "Gentlemen, this robot can still be improved. If we launch it on the market, we’ll further perfect it. My original plan was to raise four hundred million by offering forty percent of the shares. With four hundred million, we should be able to make a profit. But I’ve been unable to find investors, and the amount I’m looking to raise keeps dropping. Now we’re at the point where we will accept any investment, no matter how much. As long as there’s money, we’ll keep going."

Shen Dong looked down in thought for a moment, then turned to Zhou Chengyu and the others, "What do you think?"

Zhou Chengyu was the first to express his stance, "I have no problem."

His family was wealthy. It didn’t matter how much they invested.

Wan Pengfei said somewhat embarrassedly, "I can only put up thirty million."

His family wasn’t very rich. When it came to investing in Yadi Motors, because the investment was too large, he did not participate.

And during the investment in Yikang Pharmaceutical, his company only put up thirty million.

It’s not about investing all the funds, there still needs to be some capital reserved.

Having the opportunity to invest in such a good company, naturally, I will take out a bit to invest.

Li Kaiyao said, "I went back last night and calculated my finances, I can take out a hundred million."

Shen Dong looked toward Zhou Chengyu and said, "That leaves two hundred and seventy million, we’ll split it evenly, each person one hundred and thirty-five million, each holding 13.5% of the shares."

Zhou Chengyu nodded, "No problem."

Shen Dong looked at Wan Pengfei and Li Kaiyao, "For you two, Mr. Fei, you’ll invest thirty million, holding 3% of the shares, and Yao, you’ll invest a hundred million, holding 10% of the shares."

"No problem," both nodded.

"Good," Shen Dong nodded and turned to Lin Yan, "Mr. Lin, please draft the contract."

Lin Yan scratched his head, somewhat troubled, "Mr. Shen, I don’t really understand these things. Looking at you guys, it seems like you invest often. How about you handle this aspect?"

Shen Dong and the others exchanged glances, somewhat taken aback.

This team really thinks big.

"Aren’t you afraid we’ll trick you?" Shen Dong asked with a smile.

"Not afraid, I can tell that you are all people of integrity," Lin Yan said with an embarrassed smile.

"Alright then," Shen Dong said helplessly, "I’ll have my company’s legal department come over to draft the contract. I suggest that you contact a law firm online now and get a lawyer to come over. It’s better like this. Although I wouldn’t deceive you, having a lawyer come over will give you peace of mind and you won’t have to worry about being cheated."

Shen Dong was truly considering what was best for Lin Yan and his team.

Originally, Lin Yan wanted to say that he trusted them, but after thinking it over, he eventually nodded, "Okay, I’ll take your advice and get a lawyer."

He left the reception area to discuss with his team and then called a law firm to request a lawyer.

Shen Dong also took out his phone to call the legal department of Dongyan Investment, briefly explained the situation, and instructed them to come over as quickly as possible.

An hour later, the lawyers from both sides arrived one after another.

The contract was drafted by the legal department of Dongyan Investment.

After verification by the lawyer Lin Yan had hired, there were no issues with the contract.

Both parties signed the contract.

With this, Shen Dong and his three companions became shareholders of Zongheng Artificial Intelligence Company.

They only had the right to dividends, without any decision-making power, nor could they interfere with the management and operation of the company.

These, Shen Dong and his associates did not need.

They didn’t want to be involved; simply sharing the profits was all they wanted.

The investment funds would be transferred to the company’s account within three working days.

"Mr. Shen, Mr. Zhou, Mr. Wan, Mr. Li, thank you," Lin Yan stood up and gave them a deep bow.

"What’s there to thank for? We’re investors, we’re here to make a profit, haha," Li Kaiyao laughed heartily.

"Indeed, we believe in the company’s growth, it’s a win-win cooperation," Shen Dong nodded.

"You probably don’t know yet, but Shen Dong here has invested in many companies, and all of those investments have yielded astounding returns. With his investment in your company, success is certain. As long as there are good products, his Dongyan Guild will help with the marketing – you won’t have to worry about not being noticed," Zhou Chengyu said.

"Dongyan Guild is yours?" Lin Yan asked, looking at Shen Dong in surprise.

Though he focused on R&D, he would sometimes browse Doule in his free time and knew about the extremely popular Dongyan Guild.

Dongyan Guild is now the number one guild on Doule, dominating in live sales.

"Yes, with Shen Dong’s investment, the growth of the company is no problem. Just focus on R&D. Of course, you will gradually need to hire for other departments, but we won’t intervene there," Zhou Chengyu said.

"Should the company face any difficulties, just let us know. We should be able to solve them," Shen Dong said with a smile.

Now, with their connections, there were very few problems they couldn’t solve.

Whether it be in the business world or with official channels, they had ample connections.

"Thank you, we will not disappoint you," Lin Yan said, filled with gratitude and promise.

After chatting for a while longer, Shen Dong and the others left.
