Li Shi’s words confused everyone.
The vow before the battle began?
Why did it sound so ridiculous?
However, after following Boss Li’s logic, he felt that it was very smooth and even reasonable.
It was definitely not a small matter for Boss Pei to take it so seriously.
There would be no need to go through so much trouble if he only saw the ‘First Aid Plan’ as a charity event.
However, what if, as Boss Li had said, Tengda wanted to officially declare war on the domestic internet giants and large companies that occupied a monopoly position in the market, and the ‘First Aid Plan’ was only a preparatory work?
If Tengda wanted to declare war on these large companies, he had to be on guard against these large companies joining forces.
In other words, there was a high chance that these large companies would work together.
In that case, it would be very difficult for Tengda Corporation to face such a strong enemy, even with Boss Pei’s wisdom and methods.
As the saying went, don’t fight wars that you are not sure of. You have to be clear about which enemies and allies were before the battle.
It was foolish to rush forward without knowing anything. Boss Pei would obviously not make such a low-level mistake.
Thinking about it this way.
The ‘First Aid Plan’ was a plan to rope in allies!
‘That was because this plan could actually have a very comprehensive screening effect on Tengda’s hardcore allies.
First of all, the preliminary plan was a charity plan. The companies that participated would definitely have a certain sense of social responsibility.
Secondly, there would be no clear returns for the preliminary plan. It would only obtain a verbal promise from Tengda. The companies that participated would definitely trust Tengda and firmly follow it.
Lastly, because of the confidentiality of the first helping plan, one could roughly see their close relationship with Tengda based on the order of these companies joining the first helping.
That was because the closer they were, the more likely they would receive the news and join early.
Based on the above three points, any company that joined the initial financial plan could be regarded as an ally of Tengda. What’s more, based on the order of joining and the amount of funding, the level of allies could be roughly divided in the general area.
An investor raised a question. “But Boss Li, if it’s just to seek allies, wouldn’t it be enough with Boss Pei’s reputation to just raise his arm and shout?”
Li Shi shook his head. “Of course not!”
“Raise your arms. How do you know if the person you recruited is a true hardcore ally or a slacker? Or… a mole?”
“Once this matter spreads, those large factories will definitely hear about it and try their best to interfere.”
“On the other hand, doing things like this would be subtle and efficient.”
“Other than companies that are closely related to Tengda, no one will receive the news. Even if they do, they will only think that this is an ordinary charity event. Even if they hear my analysis, they will not believe it.”
“That’s because only companies that have no doubt about Tengda and Boss Pei would respond to this.”
‘The more everyone listened, the more they felt that it made sense.
This was a perfect screening mechanism!
‘The companies that were screened out could be trusted without anyone knowing.
Of course, could Boss Li be blindly guessing that there was no such thing?
There was still a possibility.
However, so what if he guessed wrongly? It was just a little donation to charity. There was no loss!
If he guessed correctly, the benefits would be huge!
Tengda had declared war on those large companies. In the end, it would definitely snatch vast markets and resources from those large companies. Tengda could not possibly eat all of these things.
Even if he could, given Boss Pei’s generous character, he would not mind sharing some soup for everyone.
‘When had he been disadvantaged by Tengda?
Thus, it was not a problem for the bosses present to choose.
Only a fool would not do something with low risks and high returns!
Zhou Muyan was the first to express his stance. “Sun Strike Studios is going to join the ‘Beginning Plan’!”
The other investors also said, “We’ll join!”
‘The agreements were signed in no time.
‘The agreement did not have any requirements for the charity donation quota. It could be more or less. However, were these bosses lacking that little money?
They lacked face, but they lacked the impression that they had of Boss Pei!
Of course, some people had donated hundreds of thousands or millions of yuan before. They would definitely show more sincerity to Boss Pei.
Otherwise, it would not sound nice. Would it be appropriate to donate less to Boss Pei than usual?
After signing the agreements and donating the money, Li Shi took out his cell phone and opened the application for the initialization plan. He said to everyone, “Everyone, you can scan the QR code to download this application. The initialization plan cannot be found online. There is no official website to
download the application. You can only download it by sharing and scanning the QR code. What’s more, you can only get the registration code after donating the money.”
“On this application, you can check the number of donations by the company or individuals in real time. You can also see the direction of your donations.”
“All donations will draw a portion of the fees required for the operation of the platform. However, the ratio of this commission is very low. The detailed amount of various expenses for the operation fee can also be checked.”
“However, this APP is the initial version after all. Many functions are still being perfected.”
Everyone took out their cell phones and scanned the QR code to download the application.
Zhou Muyan sighed. “This APP is something! You remember every account clearly and can even check the flow of personal funds at will. Boss Pei is really meticulous.”
According to Li Shi’s introduction, this APP was drawing operating expenses based on proportion. After all, the direction of all the funds could be checked. It might look a little strange if someone realized that the money they donated was used for operating expenses.
It was not easy to accept emotionally.
Now, he was going to draw according to the proportion. Each sum of money would be taken as a portion of the service fee. It was equivalent to sharing.
The operating expenses of the platform could be seen, and the parts that were really used for charity could also be seen. It was undoubtedly a very considerate design for these donors.
Zhou Muyan asked curiously, “Eh? There’s a channel for personal donation? What’s the highest donation level for individuals?”
“Eh? Who is this’ Boss Pei’s Disciple ‘? He donated two million yuan in one stroke just for a personal donation?”
There was a donation ranking on the application of the first helping plan. This ranking could be real or anonymous information.
It was quite common for companies to donate a few million yuan on the company list. After all, the bosses of large companies like Li Shi and Zhou Muyan were very valuable. It was not surprising that they would donate a few million yuan to support Boss Pei’s charity.
However, on the personal rankings, there were fewer donations and numbers.
After all, there was a threshold for donating money to the preliminary plan.
First of all, he had to have a close relationship with Tengda to know about this news. Secondly, it had to be a big company that did not lack money to donate a larger sum.
That made it much more difficult for people to participate in the First Aid Plan.
Even a rich second-generation heir like Xue Zhebin had several companies under his name. He was definitely inclined to donate money to Tengda in the name of the company. After all, companies that donated money could obtain Tengda’s verbal promise and prioritize cooperation!
Personal donations were definitely not enough.
Those who could obtain insider information and could afford to donate a lot of money were mostly the bosses of the companies. No matter how hard they worked, it was difficult to have so much money to donate.
Thus, there were very few personal donations. What’s more, they were basically donations of a few hundred to a few thousand yuan. Zhou Muyan had reason to suspect that this might be an internal employee of the first helping plan or someone related to the first helping plan. He would support this
charity event physically and express his sincerity with the donations.
Only an anonymous person named ‘Boss Pei’s Disciple’ donated two million yuan in his own name, leaving him in the dust!
‘That made him very curious. Who was this self-proclaimed “Boss Pe‘’s Disciple”?
It must be someone close to Boss Pei.
However… was there a need to be so humble? So what if he wrote his name out in the open?
An investor guessed. “It’s possible… Is this a trick by Boss Pei? For some reason, it’s inconvenient to reveal your identity. You can’t expose yourself even in such a highly confidential APP?”
“There are only two possibilities for a dark chess piece to donate two million yuan as a person.”
“Or perhaps this person had a lot of power and far exceeded two million yuan. He only donated a small portion;”
“Either this person has an extremely noble dream or he trusts Boss Pei without any doubt. He did not make much money but he resolutely donated them all.”
“Either way, this person is very scary. I cannot underestimate him…”
He could tell that Boss Pei’s power was far greater than what was on the surface of the water with just a glance at the management plan. There were also many hidden chess pieces under the surface. They might play their role in the future.
It was terrifying!
Boss Pei’s true strength was something that even close allies like them could not understand, much less enemies.
Just thinking about being enemies with an opponent like Boss Pei terrified him!
March 5th, Tuesday.
Meng Chang felt very good when he returned to Jingzhou.
He seemed to have experienced the feeling of being the best when he first started his business!
This time, he went to negotiate with Dayak Corporation with the private team. Eric and Assistant Xin were mainly in charge of the negotiation process. Meng Chang and He Desheng were mainly providing analysis and support in terms of strategies. However, this trip was indeed very helpful to Meng
Chang.
Of course, emptying Finger Games’ shares also benefited him.
Thus, he took a portion of the benefits that he had accumulated and entrusted it to Fan Xiaodong. He invested it into the initial project in his personal name.
He did not use a real name but made an anonymous donation. He came up with a new ID called ‘Boss Pei’s Disciple’.
Meng Chang had actually considered using his real name or the ID ‘Young Master Tian’.
After some thought, he gave up.
None of them were suitable!
‘That was because even though the ‘preliminary plan’ was a confidential plan, it would gradually develop in the future. More companies and people would join it. There was still a risk of leakage.
Of course, Boss Pei knew everything, but outsiders might not.
At that time, everyone would see where Meng Chang, a judgment debtor, would get so much money to donate. Would he make use of his work in Tengda to make a quick buck?
Or perhaps, didn’t Young Master Tian have nothing to do with Tengda? Why was he donating a huge sum of money to Tengda’s initial plan? Was there something fishy behind it?
Once these were exposed, it would not be of any help. Instead, there would be huge side effects. It would only increase trouble.
Therefore, Meng Chang did not use his own life nor his ID as Young Master Tian. Instead, he very humbly referred to himself as a Tengda disciple and used this identity to donate.
What’s more, this donation was donated by Fan Xiaodong. He was not worried that it would be exposed that “Boss Pei’s disciple is Meng Chang”.
He had to be careful when working under Boss Pei.. He could not cause trouble for Boss Pei!
