Chinese start-up gives away Teslas as a year-end bonus

BEIJING, Feb. 23 (UPI) -- A Chinese start-up is being quite generous with their year-end bonuses for employees, offering a Tesla to anyone who's worked there for at least four months.

The move will cost the company, translated as WiFi Master Key, over $4 million. Dozens of employees at the company meet the minimum requirement to get a car.

The company creates software that automatically connects cellphones to any Wi-Fi signals that are accessible in an area. The company that backs this start-up, game developer/publisher Shanda, states its employees appreciate the Tesla brand.

The CEO of Shanda was quoted saying Tesla is a "new and innovative" company appreciated by many in the technology world. The Chinese new year started on Thursday.
