My name is Colani

After discussing the company's affairs with Julia Bonaparte, the only employee at present, Hugo no longer wanted to take care of the follow-up. Of course, he would still show up for some things that he had to do. There was one more thing he needed to do, which was to give Julia Bonaparte more liquidity.

Hugo didn't have many friends in this life. The other two co-founders of Google were counted, and the friends in the team were all poor. The only one who could provide funds for Julia Bonaparte was Alessandro Morek. Morek's wealth was not very rich, but Hugo guessed that if they raised 10 million US dollars, it should be no problem.

"Brother, you are my brother! But I can't take out so much money! How about I invest 5 million US dollars in your company?!" Alessandro said that he couldn't take out so much money, and his tone faintly meant that you came to me to fleece me again.

"Alex, I told you a few days ago that I would not forget you if something good happened! Do you know why this company was registered in Trapani? Because of my uncle. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't register the company here! This is his request. Why did he ask me to do this? Because of a very simple reason, he trusts me and he knows its prospects! And now you are facing an opportunity that has fallen from the sky, and you are still aggrieved! One year later, two years later, you will regret your decision! Because of my promise to you, I told you the reason. Think about it carefully! I will take the $5 million. You are my cousin and I will not hurt you!" Hugo hung up the phone after he finished speaking and thought about it himself. If he hadn't really said that he would give Morek benefits two days ago, he would not have persuaded him so earnestly.

After this incident, Alessandro Morek really increased his investment. With the encouragement of old Morek, he borrowed money and raised $20 million for Hugo. According to him, he put all his wealth on Hugo. Hugo knew it was all true.

"Don't worry, you won't lose money with me here! But I'll make it clear to you first. I invested in Hugo International Investment Company with cash and private investment project equity, so even if you take out so much money, you may not have too much equity, maybe about 5%. Everything will be recalculated after Julia has a professional project market value assessment! In addition, you are not allowed to interfere in all the operating affairs of this company. There is a special team to manage the company. If you want to sell your equity, you should give priority to me. Without my permission, you are absolutely not allowed to sell your shares!" Hugo explained the rules to Morek first.

"I don't care, I just want to make a fortune!" Morek said.

"Haha, that's right! This company is different from other companies, you know?! Many large companies do not distribute dividends, but I tell you, our company will definitely distribute dividends, every year! But of course there is a limit, which will be decided by the company's management team!" Hugo laughed.

Now many companies in Europe and America do not pay dividends, in the name of continuing to grow and develop, but Hugo certainly will not do so, because he knows the future of this company, and dividends will not affect his development. For example, the cost of establishing a technology company itself does not need to be very high, a few million dollars or even hundreds of thousands of dollars is enough, and the development is very fast, so there is no need to worry about funding issues. Besides, if there is no dividend, how can Hugo support the team? ! So dividends are necessary.

If you want to get money from the company without dividends, you have to sell your equity. Of course, it is not as reliable to hand over equity to outsiders as to hold it in your own hands. Selling equity in recent years is definitely a stupid decision. Hugo is not stupid and wants to get the ball, so the dividend must be done. After the money is taken, the equity is still in his hands. In the future, it is not a better decision to sell the equity according to the situation.

After getting Morek to join, Hugo still did not give up. He also considered two co-founders of Google. He thought deeply. His next step was to make Facebook and mobile phone smart systems. As a person from later generations, you can't say how great Android is. There are many smart systems that can be transplanted to mobile phones. Why are Apple and Android the only two companies, and Symbian and Microsoft are sidelined? !

It's not just because of technical problems, but also has a lot to do with promotion. Hugo knew in his previous life that smart phones had already been released before Apple mobile phones were released, but Apple brought users unprecedented experience in the initial stage of smart phone popularization, and it was first-come-first-served, and since then it has attracted a large number of fans.

Android, on the other hand, has the support of Google and has signed cooperation agreements with many well-known mobile device manufacturers in the world, which has led to its development and growth. In other words, Google did not use Android, but chose another smart system based on the Linux system. Perhaps Android in later generations would not be so awesome.

Hugo thought about it and decided to sell the intelligent system to Google. It would be better for them to do it themselves. If the two founders joined, would it be beneficial for future acquisitions? Hugo thought it was possible, so he wanted to bring them in.

When Hugo told his two companions about his founding of Hugo International Investment Company, they were eager to join. They were not Morek. They trusted Hugo more. After all, seeing is believing. They knew that Hugo was a very forward-looking investor. In fact, according to the ideas given by Hugo, Google could expand rapidly.

But their problem is that they don’t have money either, but what does it matter? They can just transfer part of their Google shares to the new company like Hugo did, but Hugo doesn’t want them to do this. He needs cash, and New Investment companies need cash flow, and Hugo suggested that they can also find new venture capital companies to buy part of their equity.

The two people were still reluctant to let go. Hugo persuaded: "It's just a small part of the sale. Besides, maybe next year we will have to attract venture capital companies for business. In fact, with their investment, our future will be wider. There are more opportunities!”

This is also the case originally. If a company wants to grow, just a few people working hard will not be enough. Then it will have to wait until a certain time. At a certain time, it will inevitably absorb funds from venture capital companies, but you must pay attention to a certain degree. Of course, these venture capital companies Most of the company's funds are optimistic about this project, and they will not interfere with the company's normal development and operations. On the contrary, sometimes they will use their extensive business relationships to help the company grow and develop. Many Internet companies have grown in this way. Google is bound to get there.

The two finally agreed to Hugo. Google is not yet listed, but in just one year, it has become very popular in the circle. There are countless people who came to the two for financing. Hugo said firmly. Objection, this is called waiting for a price, and the current time cannot be said to be very suitable.

When the circle knew that they wanted to sell part of their shares, venture capital companies flocked to it. They actually sold 10% of their shares for US$40 million each. Google's shareholding structure has changed a lot, but The three co-founders have always owned the majority of the shares, and 10% of the shares are still in the hands of the Colaney family, who are not afraid of not being able to make company decisions.

The price of US$40 million is far higher than the estimated market value of Google, but are the people who buy it stupid? ! Not stupid, their money is just buying the future.

When Hugo told his sister Alda the news, he laughed and said, "You should know now that I have definitely not caused the family to suffer, right?!"

Brin and Page received the funds, and each of them contributed 30 million to Hugo International Investment Company. Everyone was fair and distributed the equity according to the market value assessment of other projects in Hugo's hands, accounting for the majority. It’s still Hugo, less Brin and Page, and Morek is the smallest shareholder.

When Hugo expanded the company's cash flow to about 80 million US dollars in one month, Julia Bonaparte was full of admiration. This showed that the partners were optimistic about Hugo and were willing to invest in him. In other words, Hugo is awesome!

"Now that you have a lot of funds, it's time to look at you. Remember that we have to pay dividends every year. I don't want our company to be in deficit at the end of the year!" Hugo said to Julia commanded.

Julia had never operated such a large cash flow. Listening to the pressure given by Hugo, she began to doubt whether she could do this job well.

"Oh, don't put so much pressure on me! In fact, these are just small amounts of money! My dividend requirements are not high. With a cash flow of 80 million U.S. dollars, according to the shares, if you pay me a dividend of 4 million U.S. dollars every year, that's about it!" Hugo comforted.

Isn’t this too demanding? ! Julia was really speechless!

However, Hugo didn't give her time to talk about the difficulties. He turned around and walked out of the door of Hugo International Investment Company, a small two-story building in the center of Trapani without taking away a single cloud.

Julia still lives in Hugo's home and works here. Of course, her job will not allow her to stay here often. She will travel all over the world!

Hugo handed over his investment matters to Julia, and then started working on the second half of the season. Christmas passed, the players were back, and the upgrade of the training base was in progress because he was busy with the new company. Hugo also travels all over the world to do business. Hugo has not gone to training or visited the busy players for a while. Now that he is free, Hugo misses the life of the team. How comfortable it is on the court. Training together, playing football together, joking together, and showing off in front of the players, it feels really good!
