After eating, Li Kai took everyone around the city center, and after returning to the hotel, Xiao Bai and he sat alone in the hotel's café."
Xiao Kai, don't go back at night, just open a room in the hotel to rest.I'm going to Silicon Valley tomorrow, so we'll leave early in the morning. ”The two drank coffee and chatted about various interesting things from their college days, and the time was unconsciously eleven o'clock at night.Xiao Bai didn't want him to drive the night train, so he asked him to stay."
I'm just waiting for you to speak, you're a rich man.To be honest, I rarely live in a hotel of this grade, the price is too expensive, and I feel distressed!
”Li Kai immediately nodded and agreed, he didn't feel distressed about spending Xiao Bai's money."
You're a typical eater mentality, or not."
The two talked and laughed, as if they had returned to the time of the year.When the coffee came out, Xiao Bai helped Li Kai open a room.The two big men had no interest in falling asleep, and then went back to their rooms to sleep.Early the next morning, Xiao Bai rented the hotel's business car and set off for Silicon Valley with Zhou Siyi, Liu Xiaoling and Li Kai.Xiao Bai noticed that Li Kai drove a Cadillac car, and it seemed that this kid was mixing well, so he and Song Jing got into each other's cars together."
Brother Xiao, I have to go to work in the morning, why don't you stay here today?
I'll invite you to drink after work in the afternoon. ”Li Kai and Xiao Bai are at a fork in the road and are ready to break up.Xiao Bai thought for a while and said, "Forget it, it's not easy to say my itinerary in the past few days, so you should wait for my call." ”After speaking, Xiao Bai and Song Jing opened the door and got off Li Kai's car and returned to the business car.Today's schedule is to visit Microsoft and CSCO, and it is only natural for major common shareholders to visit the company.However, this kind of investigation is strictly only symbolic, and the reception work of the two companies is very good, with Xiao Bai and his party all kinds of visits, and then a lot of development plans are thrown over, which are very good.In fact, it is just a fool, or a big pie, who let Xiao Bai have no power in the two companies?
Of course, Xiao Bai didn't care, he and Zhou Siyi just wanted to have the most intuitive understanding of these two companies, and there was nothing else to ask for.In the afternoon, Xiao Bai and the others returned to the Ritz-Carlton Hotel."
Dong Xiao, companies like Microsoft and CSCO have brought together the best talent in the world, which is very difficult for us to do.However, it is a good idea to set up an R&D center in Silicon Valley, and we can also share the talent advantages of Silicon Valley. ”After Zhou Siyi came back, he sat in Xiao Bai's room and talked about his feelings about today's inspection."
Silicon Valley's success is closely related to talent, but did you notice, Silicon Valley also has a large number of powerful venture capital firms.That's why I say that the success of Laomei Technology Company is the result of the integration of industry and finance.I'm thinking of setting up a venture capital firm in Silicon Valley as well, and if there are suitable projects, I can invest in them. ”Xiao Bai's perspective is broader, after experiencing the failures of the past life and the exploration of the present life, he slowly figured out something.The integration of industry and finance is the ultimate goal he needs to pursue, and the risk of a simple financial game is not small whether it is abroad or at home."
Integration of industry and finance?"
Zhou Siyi was very confused by the concept proposed by Xiao Bai, but he didn't continue to ask, this kind of thing is not something he needs to consider, and he can slowly understand it in the future."
Dong Xiao, we can go to inspect the environment of Silicon Valley tomorrow, and I hope to establish a R&D center in Silicon Valley as soon as possible."
The two discussed the itinerary for the next day, and went out to dinner with everyone.After coming back, Xiao Bai and Liu Xiaoling went to the café to sit for more than an hour, and then went back to the room to take a bath and sleep."
Brother Xiao, you said that you want to set up a venture capital company in Silicon Valley, but I have no experience in venture capital, and I'm afraid I won't be able to do it well."
Liu Xiaoling heard Xiao Bai talk about his plan, and she was not very confident."
I'll transfer people from Xiangjiang to help you, and you can also recruit a few helpers locally.It's good to accumulate experience in this kind of thing slowly, and if you are not sure, you can call me and ask me. ”Xiao Bai encouraged Liu Xiaoling, he had already thought about the organizational structure of the venture capital company, Liu Xiaoling only needed to grasp the overall situation, and the specific work would be handed over to professionals.The first person to choose is Liu Yixiong.Of course, he hasn't told Liu Xiaoling about this yet, and he has to ask Liu Yixiong himself for his opinion when he goes back."
Okay, then I'll try."
After Liu Xiaoling finished speaking, she casually turned off the bedside lamp.An hour later, the two of them went to sleep.The next day.Xiao Bai and his group continued to investigate in Silicon Valley, and today's theme is about the establishment of a R&D center, in addition to office space, the key is the recruitment of talents.Everyone's eyes were dark, but fortunately, Zhou Siyi was no stranger to Silicon Valley, and he got in touch with the local Chinese sorority through friends.After Xiao Bai and the others saw the person they were looking for, they told them that there are actually many talents who graduated from famous domestic universities in Silicon Valley, such as Qingbei University."
This Xiao Kai, I can't even remember the key information to tell me."
After turning around for a long time, Xiao Bai found that in fact, this information could be obtained from Li Kai.It's just that the two of them patronized nostalgia that day, but the key issues were not involved."
That's it, I'll invite everyone to drink in the evening, let's have a small party, you are responsible for contacting the venue, and all the expenses are mine."
Xiao Bai felt the need to get in touch with the local Chinese, not that there was anything specific to rely on them, but mainly to get some useful information.Subsequently, he called Li Kai again and asked him to come over at night."
Hehe, Brother Xiao, I'm sorry, I forgot to say these things that day.I'll definitely go in the evening, and I'll be able to bring a few familiar people with me. ”Li Kai came to this Chinese restaurant on time in the evening.The grounds of this Chinese restaurant are large, but the location is relatively remote.However, it is not a big problem, the people who come are in groups of three or five, and they are all familiar with the local situation.Xiao Bai and Liu Xiaoling were in charge of greeting guests, and Zhou Siyi took all kinds of useful information in the crowd, which really made him inquire about an interesting thing."
Xiao Dong, this is Wang Qianhao.He used to work in an R&D center that was invested by a Singapore company, and his main research direction was analog ICs.However, the Singapore company is currently looking to sell the unit due to debt. ”Xiao Bai was sitting with a few people eating and chatting, when Zhou Siyi came over and pulled him aside and introduced him to a Chinese man about thirty years old."
Hello Xiao Dong!
It's an honor to meet you. ”"Mr.
Wang, you don't have to be polite, we are all compatriots, and if we can meet in a foreign country, it's all fate!"
Subsequently, Wang Qianhao gave Xiao Bai a detailed introduction to the situation of the Xingapo R&D institution.It is said that the other party is now offering $52 million to sell all the equipment, research materials and so-called patented technology owned by the research and development institution.Xiao Bai didn't say anything after listening, and after expressing his gratitude to Wang Qianhao, he asked the other party to help contact the other party, and he could try to talk.After the dinner party, Xiao Bai personally sent everyone to the car.Li Kai was the last to leave, and after he left, Xiao Bai returned to the hotel with Zhou Siyi, Liu Xiaoling and others."
Dong Xiao, should we go directly to that R&D institution?"
Zhou Siyi was more anxious, and he was not a businessman, so he didn't think about it so much.Xiao Bai shook his head, he had already asked Wang Qianhao to pass the word, if the other party was interested, he should take the initiative to find him.This order cannot be wrong, otherwise it will be difficult to negotiate the purchase price.If the other party is not sincere, then forget it, it is not difficult to set up a R&D institution by yourself, at most it will cost more money and time.The next day.Zhou Siyi received a call from Wang Qianhao early in the morning, saying that the person in charge of the R&D institution would come to the hotel this morning to visit Xiao Bai and others."
Xiao Dong, I have promised, they will arrive at the hotel in an hour."
This matter has been discussed last night, so Zhou Siyi made the decision to let the other party come over directly, and everyone can talk about it first."
Well, let's hear what they have to say."
Xiao Bai had a very subjective feeling that the other party's offer should have a relatively large amount of moisture.Of course, today's meeting is only the first contact between the buyer and the seller, and the specific purchase price will not be discussed yet.Xiao Bai then rented a small conference room in the hotel, and after sitting in it for a long time, the other party and a group of four arrived.He noticed that the person in charge of the other party was a local white man in North America, and after the two sides introduced each other, they learned that this person's name was Matthew Ryan."
Dr.
Matthew, nice to meet you.""
Mr.
Xiao, I am deeply honored to meet you" After everyone was polite, they sat down in the conference room.Matthew asked a member of the same party to introduce the basic situation of the R&D institution, and the summary is that the scientific research results of the R&D institution are very valuable, and if it is not for the rupture of investors' funds, it is impossible to consider the issue of selling.Xiao Bai listened to the other party's explanation very patiently, but in fact, his heart was like a mirror.It's like shouting when you sell something, and the louder the shouting and the more exaggerated the description, the better the price will sell.Just listen to it."
Mr.
Xiao, are you interested?
If you are interested, I can arrange for you to visit the R&D center, where you can feel more intuitively. ”Matthew Ryan has been observing Xiao Bai's reaction, but unfortunately, this young investor has no expression on his face."
Good!
If it's convenient, I'd like to visit your R&D center tomorrow morning, okay?

”Although the other party covered it up well, Xiao Bai could still see from the subtleties that Matthew and the others were in a hurry.Xiao Bai thought about it and decided to control the rhythm and continue to contact the other party tomorrow.
