Reborn Xiangjiang Tycoon Growth
Chapter 40: Seeing God Qiao
Bao Zixuan was not disturbed by the outside world and still performed his duties as a student at MIT. But this weekend he had to leave Cambridge and travel across the United States to go to Apple's headquarters in California.
The overwhelming media reports and Microsoft's usage bonus forced Apple to contact Black Cloud. As soon as Hashimoto got the news, he reported it to Bao Zixuan. That's how this trip across the United States came about.
journey of.
On this trip to California, Bao Zixuan brought six people with him. In addition to Hiroshi Hashimoto, he also brought two engineers and three bodyguards. In addition to Peng Yifei and John Howard, there was also a newly recruited security guard, Jackson Jones.
Jackson-Jones is a black man with a powerful appearance and a height of nearly 2 meters. He looks like a black tower and is very intimidating.
After John Howard was promoted to the head of the security department, he basically stayed with Bao Zixuan. Under his recruitment, the number of security guards in the company has reached 24. Bao Zixuan has very high requirements, including getting married and having children.
Many people did not meet the requirements, and their families were arranged to live in a community. Bao Zixuan also paid their wives a salary, and all their children were arranged to study in the best local schools. It can be said that these security expenses
Bao Zixuan's monthly expenditure reaches 500,000 US dollars. But for the sake of his own safety, it is all worth it. After all, in this era, the security in some places in Hong Kong and the United States is not very good.
Out of professional habit, Bao Xiaxuan still chose to sit in the window seat next to the engine. He received the notice the first day and set off early the next morning. He originally wanted to see more people, but in the end there were only 7 tickets left.
, so I had to make do with it.
Whether it was a Boeing 747 or a Rolls-Royce engine, these were all very familiar to Bao Zixuan, which reminded him of what happened when he was developing the engine. And just when Bao Zixuan was lost in thought, he suddenly smelled a burst of aroma.
Come, at this time Bao Zixuan saw a tall and beautiful woman sitting next to him.
The beauty is about 170 centimeters tall and has blond hair. She looks very fashionable in this era. Bao Zixuan couldn't help but take another look. To be honest, it has been more than a month since I came to the United States and I have seen a lot of beauties, but
It’s the first time I’ve seen someone who looks so comfortable and looks so beautiful.
At this time, the beauty also glanced out the window, and the two people's eyes happened to look at each other. Someone caught him peeping, and Bao Zixuan could only smile awkwardly. Then he read a book. What he was reading now was about
The professional book on the principles of tape recorders was borrowed from his roommate Thomas Marr, because his next step was to produce the Walkman before Sony.
Perhaps because she had seen too many people around her, the beauty was not angry. But when she saw the book in Bao Zixuan's hand, she was still a little curious about the densely packed electronic circuit diagrams, and the book clearly had the mark of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. After all,
Thinking that he is also a top academic figure, he couldn't help but asked out of curiosity: "Sir, what book are you reading?"
Bao Zixuan: "It's a book about electronic components. It mainly introduces the working principle and application of the tape recorder."
In fact, what Bao Zixuan didn't know was that the woman sitting next to him named Rasha Stone was a beauty pageant champion. She was the same age as him, she was also 19 this year, and she was invited to audition for a film crew.
Sharon Stone: "Hello, I am Sharon Stone and I am an actor. And you, sir."
Bao Zixuan seems to have heard of this name, but he can't remember it. After all, whether in this life or in his previous life, he has not had a deep impact on the film and television industry. He can only remember a few limited films. For example, Home Alone, Jura
Park, Harry Potter, Alien, Titanic, Lord of the Rings, Avatar and a few other movies, but if you have time, you can still write a few books.
Bao Zixuan: "So you are an actor! No wonder you are so beautiful. My name is Bao Zixuan, from MIT."
Sharon Stone was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that the person sitting next to him was actually a billionaire. Although he is now developing in Hollywood, as a person who went to college at the age of 15, he is still very familiar with the technology circle.
After all, his childhood dream was to become a lawyer.
Sharon Stone: "Oh my God! You are that Bao Zixuan from Xiangjiang, the developer of Heiyun Software, the proposer of Industry 4.0; the boss of Heiyun Company."
Bao Zixuan: "If there is no second Bao Zixuan, it should be me!"
Sharon Stone: "What are you going to California for this time?"
Bao Zixuan: "I'm going to Apple. I have a cooperation with them that I want to discuss."
Sharon Stone: "That's the Apple company that makes computers."
Bao Zixuan: "Yes, what about you! Have you been living in Boston?"
Sharon Stone: "I have a commercial shoot here, and after that I went to Los Angeles to audition."
The time with the beautiful woman passed very quickly. When the two got off the plane, they had already left each other's contact information. After Bao Zixuan finished his work, he invited her to dinner.
Sharon Stone was picked up by her agent, and already waiting at the airport were the staff of Black Cloud Company who had arrived in Los Angeles in advance. They had already arranged everything.
Heiyun Company and the nine people who met together in California drove two cars toward Apple.
Although it is rare for American companies to work overtime on weekends, it is a different matter for a newly started computer company. Although it is the weekend, all employees of Apple are actively working overtime and doing what they love. Most of the employees of this company are
Young people are quite passionate every day together.
At this time, Apple had moved out of the garage of Jobs' home and finally had a place to stay in California. Jobs was 22 years old this year, which was the golden time of his life, but when he saw Bao Zixuan, who was younger than himself, he
He immediately felt the pressure. He had already started much faster than his peers, but he did not expect that this Xiangjiang boy would develop faster than him. The two met while sizing each other up. Then Hashimoto Hiroshi introduced the two of them.
Steve Jobs: "Welcome to Apple, how do you feel?"
Bao Zixuan: "Although this place is not big, the working atmosphere is the best in the United States and the passion is the most intense. I am full of confidence in our cooperation."
Jobs: "Your software is great. It is very suitable to run on Apple computers. This is a perfect match. There is no reason for us not to cooperate. We really want to buy it, but it is difficult for you to get shares."
Bao Zixuan: “I can express my sincerity with a very low software license, and I can purchase Mr. Markkula’s shares in cash, and I will not participate in Apple’s management. In any decision-making, my shares will be controlled by your founder shareholders.
Exercise the right to vote on your behalf.”
In fact, these days Jobs, Wozniacki and others have been discussing the benefits and impact of Heiyun's investment in Apple, and whether it will deprive them of their management rights. But after hearing this, he felt relieved.
Steve Jobs: "What's Black Cloud's valuation of Apple? I can't accept $10 million. How many shares do you want to get?"
In fact, Jobs's valuation of Apple was only between US$8 million and US$12 million, but seeing that Heiyun's first-round offer reached 10 million, he still hoped to get Heiyun to pay more. Who would let them?
The game is so profitable. Bao Zixuan was once again deceived by his previous experience. At this time, Apple had just been established and had only moved out of the garage a few days ago. How could it have such a high market value! Moreover, Markkula invested US$250,000 a few months ago.
He obtained 30% of the shares. How could he increase in value so quickly in just a few months?
Bao Zixuan: "I am very optimistic about Apple's prospects, but I don't want your founding team to hold too few shares, otherwise they will lose the passion to start a business and lose their original motivation. You can persuade Markkula to transfer the shares to me.
I will pay 20 times the price, which is 20 times the investment he made in a few months, and lend Apple 5 million US dollars for development free of charge, without charging any interest. If Apple does not pay back, it will automatically exchange for 10%
shares.”
Jobs: "That's good advice. I'm going to have a good talk with Markkula."
Bao Zixuan: "Okay, I'll take my leave first. I'll come over tomorrow morning. I don't have much time. I have to go back to Boston tomorrow night." After saying that, he left Apple.
