Chapter 511: Chapter 228: Grand Ambitions and Dominance in a Smile

Su Huai, of course, did not treat Zhang Dayi unfairly or reprimand her harshly.

He did have the sincerity for cooperation.

Many people understand cooperation as "What conditions you offer me, I’ll give you the same in return"; this is not cooperation, this is a job.

Workers should get paid for the effort they put in at work, don’t talk to me about dreams, the future, or the big picture.

But cooperation won’t work like that; there are too many things in a partnership that can’t be quantified. If you haggle over every detail, nothing will ever get done.

So, the hardest part of cooperation is to let each other recognize the value of the other, then we can talk about distribution.

Each other, implies mutual valuation.

There’s nothing much to talk about regarding Xingyu’s fixed assets; the numbers are there, so it’s mainly about getting Zhang Dayi to acknowledge the valuation of the intangible assets.

And of these intangible assets, Su Huai himself is the hardest to assess.

"How much do you think I’m worth?"

Facing Su Huai’s question, Zhang Dayi didn’t try to lowball but honestly shook her head, "I can’t estimate it; you’re too valuable, but I don’t have the capacity to guess a reasonable number."

Giving tit for tat, Su Huai smiled at her, "Sister Yi, likewise, is priceless."

Then the rest was easy to discuss.

"No matter how perfect Xingyu’s strategy is, it needs us to push it forward together. I’m important, Sister Yi, you’re equally important. Let’s make the cake bigger first, and when it comes to the counseling period for the IPO, we can do a secondary distribution based on the situation."

Su Huai first fully acknowledged her, then set aside the points that were most contentious, and finally, the plan they formed was full of the entrepreneurial drive and flexibility of an early-stage company.

First was the specific shareholding ratio—

Mo Jian continued to hold shares on Su Huai’s behalf, with the proportion reduced to 45%.

Pei Shuyu’s shares were diluted to 15%, and Zhang Dayi also held a 15% share.

Cheese’s original 15% was diluted the most, only remaining at 5%, and his 5% only had dividend rights and could not be sold externally. If he wanted to sell, he could only sell it to Su Huai.

Victory was in sight; let’s be a little tough on Cheese...

The remaining 20% was allocated to the option pool, to be used solely for dividends in the short term, with mid- to high-level management personnel receiving a 5% equity dividend, while the remaining 15% was reserved for annual dividends for the livestreamers and bloggers.

The key point here was: The company’s individual shareholders might not be paid dividends every year as profits might be reinvested in operations, but the option pool would definitely pay dividends annually to reward all the livestreamers and management.

We must differentiate between equity dividends and year-end bonuses; the two concepts are not the same.

Furthermore, that 20% option pool would always remain constant. If any new prominent livestreamers joined halfway through, all shares were to be diluted together, but Su Huai would use his personal shares to replenish the entire option pool.

He was reluctant to give too many shares to Zhang Dayi but was willing to let profits loose to everyone.

That’s how he persuaded Sister Yi, "I didn’t start this company just to make money, but making Xingyu bigger will bring me more joy than earning money.

Similarly, it’s not that I’m unwilling to give you shares; it’s just that you’re not suitable for holding too high a portion right now. In the future, as our business grows larger, your shares might continue to be diluted, or they might surge contrary to the flow, becoming the undisputed number one. It’s all up to you."

During his communication with Zhang Dayi, Su Huai used the term "number one" multiple times.

This wasn’t because he couldn’t find a better adjective, but because Zhang Dayi dealt with Taobao all year round and was accustomed to the jianghu vibe; using "number one" subtly enhanced her identification with the concept.

Look, isn’t that meticulous?!

Zhang Dayi indeed acknowledged it, and her ambitions were even greater.

"I believe that if you can succeed, then on various tracks, there will definitely be numerous top livestreamers, all capable of receiving shares and becoming partners.

But I also firmly believe that I will be one of the most dazzling among them.

Yu really knows how to make money, but her money is just that, money. My influence, however, will become the most important cornerstone of the company!"

"Great, I really like your spirit," Su Huai complimented her with the stance and demeanor of a company leader. Just a simple praise made her sincerely happy.

She wasn’t obsessed with romance; her attitude toward men was very casual, but Su Huai wasn’t just a man—he was a future guide.

A woman’s admiration for the strong is boundless, unrelated to whether she actually likes them or not; it’s all about recognition and the desire to be recognized.

So, even though every word Su Huai said sounded like a pie-in-the-sky promise, she believed wholeheartedly.

In fact, confusing "describing a vision" with "drawing a pie in the sky" is nothing but a commonly accepted jest. A clever person can clearly distinguish between the two and wouldn’t be easily fooled by a mere pie.

The two most important aspects are "Do I have the ability to do it?" and "Do I have the willingness to do it?"

For example, when Jia Xiaozhou says he will post a big update as a thank you in a couple of days, so guys, cast your votes today~~~

Nonsense! Voting sham! This pie is both dry and crumbly!

He wants to do it, but you all know he doesn’t have the ability, right?!

Or when the company boss pats you on the shoulder and says, "Work hard, Wang, once we wrap up this deal, your salary should go up."

It’s clearly a pie in the sky. The boss, of course, has the ability, but he has no intention of fulfilling it.

If you really go to him and ask, he might even feel you’re out of line and consider firing you.

Then there’s Jia Xiaozhou; this guy is a typical case of lacking both the ability to fulfill the vision and the willingness to keep promises. Yet, he spoke as if he had the ability and acted with apparent willingness, so in a sense, he’s truly impressive.
