Chapter 597

Finally, Martin ended the exchange.

He smiled and said:"Now that everyone has expired, let's talk about investment. I have something to do tomorrow, so I can't stay here for too long."

Mark Zuckerberg sighed:"I still envy you, Martin. There is no need to waste time in class."

Speaking of class, Martin also became curious and asked:"Mark, you obviously like computer programming so much, why do you want to apply for the psychology department in college?"

Mark smiled bitterly:"Because I have already thought about it. When starting a business in college, the psychology department is relatively easy and easy to pass, which can save me a lot of time."

(PS: I don’t know if you have noticed that American entertainment stars and sports stars all like to choose psychology when they go to college. The euphemistic name is: it can help figure out the psychology of the character, or it can help figure out the psychology of the opponent, but the actual reason is that the subject of psychology is relatively simple compared to other courses, and the credits are easy to get.

Although psychology cannot be said to be the most popular course in American University An easy major is also one of the easiest majors. So many children from ordinary families in the United States will choose this major in college because it is easy and seems fun, and then they fall into the trap. Just like many of our Chinese students Falling into the big pit of biology.)

As the world's number one university in psychology, Harvard University's psychology courses are already difficult, but for academics like Mark Zuckerberg, they appear to be very simple..

Anyway, Mark completed it easily and devoted most of his time to his career.

"Martin, the capital we need is about two million. I think we can give you 45% of the shares. What do you think?"Mark muttered, with a bit of embarrassment on his face.

At this time, he didn't know how much potential Face would have in the future, and felt that this offer was a bit of a trap for Martin.

But Martin was overjoyed, it was such a good deal..

But he remained calm on his face and said:"Okay, after all, I am helping a friend. The voting rights of this part of the shares are still left to you, Mark.""

Mark was overjoyed!

The reason why he asked Martin to invest was for this purpose.

Just when he was about to agree, he heard Eduardo Saverin on the side saying:"I don't agree, 45% is too much. I think two million is just the price. 20% of shares is enough."

Martin and Mark frowned at the same time.

But Martin frowned in his heart, and Mark frowned on his face.

Then, Mark Zuckerberg said:"Eduardo, two million for 45% of the shares is not much, but a premium.."

Eduardo Saverin said:"I am optimistic about the future of Face. Judging from the current development speed of the website, we will not be too far away from 100 million users. 5% of Face's shares are far more than 2 million."

"But we are talking about now. Without these two million to expand the server, our website will collapse, and there will be no future."Mark Zuckerberg was a little annoyed. He felt that Eduardo Saverin had made him lose face in front of his friends.

Martin felt that what Eduardo said was very reasonable, but the other party was not motivated by public motives, but was afraid of the power in his hands. was concentrated in the hands of Mark Zuckerberg.

The original distribution of Face shares was that Mark Zuckerberg held 60% and he held 35%. Mark’s roommate Dustin Moskowitz also invested and held 5%.

This share Although the proportion cannot allow him to compete with Mark, it is enough to occupy a considerable say. But now if Martin gets 45% of the shares, his shares will inevitably be diluted a lot, and Martin will also have to If the right to speak about the shares is given to Mark, then will Face become Mark Zuckerberg’s voice?

In the future, this person will be the CEO of Face because Mark Zuckerberg introduced Sean Parker and believes that the power in his hands has been took it away, and had conflicts with Mark Zuckerberg.

So when Face was conducting external financing, Eduardo Saverin deliberately refused to sign, which aroused even more conflicts.

So Sean Parker simply went to Delaware Prepare to build a brand new company, which is more legal and formal. Let’s call this new company Face.0, and the company that previously owned Face, jointly controlled by Mark Zuckerberg and Eduardo Saverin, was called Face. 0.

Then Sean Parker asked Face.0 to acquire Face.0.

Xiao Zha and Xiao Mo transferred the intellectual property rights of Face station to Face.0 company, indicating that Face is owned by this company.

Eduardo Saverin still owns the new company shares, but is no longer a member of the new company. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

In this way, the articles of association of the new company Face.0 stipulate that Mark Zuckerberg holds 51% of the shares, and Eduardo Sa Verin holds 34.4% of the shares, Dustin Moskowitz holds 6.81%, and Sean Parker holds 6.47%.

The key is that this move made Eduardo Saverin unknowingly sidelined, and he became even more It went viral.

Then Eduardo Saverin froze Face.0's bank account, causing the conflict to intensify again.

Then Sean Parker used methods to cause Eduardo Saverin's shares to be diluted without his knowledge. to 10%.

The two parties fell out.

Sean Parker ruthlessly introduced funds again, diluting Eduardo Saverin's shares, making his holdings less than 5%.

Subsequently, Eduardo Saverin was kicked out After leaving the management, he no longer has the power to dictate the website.

When you see this, you may feel that Eduardo Saverin is quite pitiful. He is obviously one of the founders, but in the end his shares were diluted time and time again and he became a marginalized figure.

In fact, it is also He asked for it, because Eduardo Saverin came with the attitude of starting a part-time business from the beginning, just to make a fortune.

Mark Zuckerberg and Dustin Moskowitz were determined to start a business. To treat Face, after the summer vacation of their sophomore year, the two applied to take a leave of absence and would not return to Harvard.

Eduardo Saverin once personally told Mark Zuckerberg that Face was one of his business activities and he planned to graduate. After going to business school, he would prioritize his studies no matter how much the company needed him.

Moreover, this person also used Face for personal gain. He once placed advertisements on the Face website, which was another job search website he invested in. This website may compete with Face, and it has nothing to do with the team.

The most important thing is that since you are starting a business part-time, don’t hold on to the management and decision-making rights of the website. Wouldn’t it be nice to quietly hold the shares and wait for them to appreciate in value?

However, this man was reluctant to give up the power in his hands, which eventually led to the intensification of conflicts between the two parties and their separation.
