I had nothing to do during the day, and in the morning I was doing work at home. I also hired a professional team to clean the outdoor swimming pool. The weather was hot enough to go into the water.
After lunch, I went to accompany Nangong Tian and Jiang Yu, went to the hospital for examinations, and went shopping in the mall.
I bought a lot of clothes, shoes and hats for my newborn baby, and it felt like I was playing a doll dress-up game.
After listening to the two of them chatting endlessly, Su Yehao secretly sent a message to Yin Liuli and asked her if she wanted to go to the United States for a week's vacation.
The reply he got was that he was busy with work recently, and the crowdfunding business of Internet Serious Illness was expanding, so he couldn't spare time, so he simply went to flirt with Miss Vera again.
It took a while for Vera to reply, telling her that she wanted to go to New York to see Jan van Eyck's painting exhibition, and maybe we could meet him some time.
Although he and Vera are already together, they spend less time together and more time away from each other for a long time.
She has her own rhythm of life, and Su Yehao can't always accompany her and live like a normal couple, so she has to do this for the time being.
At eight o'clock that night.
Su Yehao set off from Dalangwan and took a car to the airport. He had all earplugs and eye masks prepared in advance, and even brought pure cotton pajamas.
He often travels far away and is very experienced in this. He is obviously planning to sleep in the United States...
————————
Silicon Valley.
Su Yehao, who rested for eight and a half hours on the way, felt more comfortable this time than sleeping at home.
After washing up and changing clothes, and just having a hamburger for breakfast, the plane landed at San Jose Airport.
The only problem is that it's late afternoon local time.
The sky has been filled with colorful clouds, which means that after a night, it will get dark again.
He will definitely not be able to fall asleep. Su Yehao plans to invite a few friends to chat in a bar, or hold an impromptu private party.
As an outsider in the eyes of others, Su Yehao needs to be popular enough to avoid Silicon Valley giants joining forces to squeeze him out. Many opportunities are often hidden in interpersonal interactions.
Take Yahoo's Yang Zhiyuan as an example. His family office also holds a lot of Yanwen Group stocks and even participated in Google's financing. The relationship with Su Yehao is not as incompatible as outsiders imagine.
Yahoo released too much equity back then, and Yang Zhiyuan's voice was severely weakened. Since leaving the position of CEO of Yahoo, the management rights of these companies have been vested in the board of directors.
Nasdaq has just started to recover, and Yang Zhiyuan can't wait to reduce his holdings of Yahoo stocks regularly.
At the beginning of the year, I contacted Su Yehao and participated in the financing of several start-up companies with KOKO Venture Capital, probably to help people connect and increase the probability of project success.
At their level, when they encounter an interesting project, they just throw some money around.
Whether it succeeds or not, it doesn't matter much. Maybe some unknown small companies that come along may bring unexpected surprises.
I searched through my address book and called Larry Page, Yang Zhiyuan, John Zhou and others, asking them to call some colleagues and friends to sit together at a cocktail bar near Stanford University.
I originally wanted to contact Steve Jobs.
But thinking of the other party's temper, Su Yehao gave up decisively.
Compared with traditional interpersonal communication, the social atmosphere here in the United States seems slightly more relaxed.
On the one hand, it is because people are used to keeping a distance from each other and do not easily make embarrassing requests. On the other hand, even if others make requests, they can refuse them directly in person. They are used to keeping life and career as separate as possible.
Of course, the United States is also an emotional society, so small circles are often formed.
Su Yehao's employees and partners in the United States spontaneously formed a club with the label "Soviet". The Kaomoji Group and Google help each other, and their relationship is as good as wearing a pair of pants. Below are PayPal, Netflix, and Loveline.
, instagram (photo wall), Google video, Valve games, etc., the development momentum is astonishing.
There are many companies directly controlled by Su Yehao, and there are also many companies invested by Su Yehao, led by Apple and Amazon, and there are also a large number of start-up companies.
Considering that Microsoft's headquarters is far north in Seattle, Silicon Valley is almost half conquered by Su Yehao. He has too many high-quality resources in his hands, so he is unreasonably worried about gains and losses. He is worried that if he grows to a certain extent in the future, he will be taken over by jackals.
The tigers and leopards looked for reasons to encircle and carve up the country.
We’ll talk about the future in the future, but fortunately it’s still very stable at the moment.
Through the process of emojis and Google's pie-sharing, a large number of American companies and wealthy people have made a fortune. Su Yehao has a pretty good reputation, and his influence in the investment circle has long surpassed that of SoftBank's Masayoshi Son.
Take the car back to the mansion in the Atherton area.
The white-tailed deer in the yard have been released into the wild, and the denuded lawn has finally become beautiful.
The house is usually cleaned by housekeepers and maids. It looks a little less smoky, but everywhere is clean. The customized bulletproof Phantom and Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR in the garage are covered with dust covers and occasionally ignited.
, find someone to maintain it, and it can still be used.
Su Yehao rested at home for a while, and when the appointed time was approaching, he drove the CLK GTR supercar out in person.
When he arrived at the door of the bar, he happened to see Yang Zhiyuan with Jason Huang, the founder of Nvidia, and John Zhou with the CEO of Yanwen Group, who had also arrived.
Yang Zhiyuan came to the sports car and asked helplessly:
"Mr. Su, you didn't make a reservation, right? I see that the bar is already full. They are all Stanford students. There is a fraternity party here today. We can't buy some wine and squat on the roadside to drink.
"
Nvidia, managed by Jason Huang, has cooperation with Su Yehao's Hong Kong City Microelectronics Group. The two had several phone calls. He also said: "It's okay to sit on the roadside and drink, but people come and go and stare at us.
It feels a little weird.”
John Zhou put down the phone and walked over, smiling:
"Don't worry, I've already made arrangements. Now I'm going to my friend's craft beer workshop. His place is too high-end and deserted, and there just aren't many customers."
I have nothing to do tonight.
Yang Zhiyuan replied: "Then I will drive Brother Huang with me. Is there anyone else? Otherwise, we have to wait."
Su Yehao smiled and said: "There are also Larry Page and the others. I just need to make a call. You can go there first."
Of course Jason Huang knew Larry Page and jokingly said to Yang Zhiyuan:
"Your Yahoo! is about to be wiped out. It's better to cash out as soon as possible and bring the money to invest in my NVIDIA. The computer sales market is picking up, and Mr. Su and the others have given strong support and purchased a lot of my goods. Now the company has a better future than I
."
It was just a joke in private, but the decline of Yahoo was clear at a glance. Yang Zhiyuan said helplessly:
"If you want to invest, just invest in Yanzi and Google. The competition in the personal computer industry is too great. If you invest, you will fall from one pit to another..."
