Chapter 576: Why don't you want to go back
On the first day after the National Day holiday, the last group of employees and their families on vacation flew to Mokassi Island.
After Shen Hui returned to Shanghai, he held a meeting for several days in a row and flew to the United States.
Huang Peipei was not idle, flew to Europe, inspected the industries under his name, and called his father and mother by the way.
At the end of the year, there will be a lot of small conferences in China, and there will be a lot of activities on Wall Street.
During his stay in the United States, Shen Hui was invited to go to Silicon Valley, visited the headquarters of several technology giants, and also met several tech giants, such as Bezos, the former richest man, and Xiaozha, the richest man in the post-80s.
If it weren't for Boss Shen's rise like a star, he would indeed be the undisputed richest man born in the 80s.
Silicon Valley and Wall Street have a long chain of contempt, Silicon Valley is a place full of creativity, so they look down on the copper-smelling capitalists on Wall Street, so Silicon Valley engineers ridicule the culture of Wall Street people are pretended, and Wall Street elites despise Silicon Valley engineers who wear flip-flops and go to work without culture.
Silicon Valley needs money from Wall Street, and Wall Street needs not only Silicon Valley technology, but also from investing in technology companies to make profits, so this phenomenon of mutual contempt and interdependence has formed.
And Americans' worship of wealth is unreasonable, so even if they are not interested in capitalists from Wall Street, the visit of Shen's richest man still won great enthusiasm from the tech giants of Silicon Valley, and these tech giants, who even the president is not very willing to deal with, showed strong curiosity about Boss Shen, who created the myth of financial wealth.
Although the two sides have not been very friendly in the past two years, this does not prevent everyone from communicating privately.
Shen Hui was even invited to visit Xiao Zha's house and met Xiao Zha's Chinese wife.
The more he came into contact with these people, the more Shen Hui found that these people were different from those on Wall Street.
The Wall Street gang does not know much about the disguise, and the pursuit of wealth is always written on the face, which is very naked, so it will be criticized, while the Silicon Valley gang is imaginative, and after reaching a certain height, they wrap themselves in all kinds of bright clothes, such as promoting charity and good karma, paying attention to the entry of life into China and various diseases in the natural world.
But no matter how it is packaged, the essence of a capitalist is still that of a capitalist.
In capitalist countries where capital dominates politics, the boundaries between capitalists and so-called entrepreneurs are not very clear. It's actually no different from the capitalists? No matter how much it is packaged, it cannot change the essence of capitalists.
The glossy cloak of charity is always the best magic weapon used by capital to cover up interests.
A serious study of U.S. tax law? You know why those entrepreneurs become philanthropists.
As for suppressing peers? Monopolistic competition is more of a slippery game.
During Silicon Valley? Shen Hui met Yan Ning, a tenured professor at Princeton University, at a life science conference. There was a lot of noise on the Internet for a while? There are maintenance and spray.
Shen Hui invited a beautiful professor to have a meal, to be honest, it is a bit inconsistent to use the modifier of beauty in front of the professor, professors and scientists are originally a sacred profession, and it is somewhat inappropriate to add the modifier of beauty in front.
An old aunt in her forties? For a young man like Shen Hui who is less than thirty years old? I really can't appreciate the beauty of the old aunt, and the beauty is also relative, more of the beauty brought by the professional halo, compared with the beauties around Boss Shen, Mr. Yan's beauty is really a bit dwarfed? The secretaries around me can win.
"Does Mr. Yan have any plans to return to China?"
Shen Hui was indifferent to the Western food on the table, and gave up after trying a few times with a fork.
Doesn't taste good? It's also not easy to use a fork.
"I have no plans to return to China for the time being. ”
Aunt Yan doesn't look sturdy, at least seven or eight years younger than her actual age? It looks like she is in her thirties, and she is full of the charm of a mature big sister? Just mentioning the topic of returning home? It kind of affects the mood a little.
But Mr. Yan quickly adjusted his mood? asked Shen Hui: "Is Mr. Shen used to eating Western food?"
"I'm not used to it!"
There is nothing to be ashamed of this, Shen Hui said honestly: "I am more picky in eating, not only am I not used to eating Western food, but I am also not used to eating food in the south of China, and my friends say that I am actually a very conservative person, but I think eating habits have little to do with thoughts." ”
"It really doesn't matter. ”
Ms. Yan agrees: "After living in one place for a long time, it will be difficult to change your eating habits. ”
Shen Hui had nothing to talk about with an old aunt in her forties, let alone a soul exchange or something, so he pulled the topic back again, and said with a smile: "Xinghai Investment is preparing to set up a medical group, and we need a top scientist like Mr. Yan to create dreams with us. ”
Mr. Yan refused with a smile: "Thank you Mr. Shen for your kindness, many companies in the United States have also invited me, but I am just a pure scientific research worker, and I have not considered developing in an enterprise for the time being." ”
Boss Shen expressed regret: "That's a pity, but to be honest, my original intention of investing in the medical industry is not for profit, to put it mildly, if it is just for profit, with the profitability of Xinghai Investment in the financial market, I don't need to invest in the medical industry." The reason why we will invest in the medical industry is just to prevent our medical industry from being pulled too far, scientific research is the top priority of the medical industry, if Mr. Yan can go back, I can provide you with a scientific research environment that is not lost here. ”
Aunt Yan smiled and said, "Thank you Mr. Shen for your kindness, I will consider it." ”
Boss Shen sighed in his heart, why didn't he want to go back!
This kind of thing is not easy to force.
If the plane tree is not planted well, it can't attract phoenixes and can't complain about others.
During the Silicon Valley period, Boss Shen also did one thing, held a business support meeting.
In the presidential suite of a five-star hotel, countless entrepreneurs lined up to meet them, nervous and excited, Shen Shoufu wants to support start-up companies, which is definitely great news for the start-ups in Silicon Valley.
Lack of money and poverty are the truest portrayal of the vast majority of start-ups.
Potential startups are not short of money, and the people on Wall Street are not blind, but those with some potential have been targeted by capitalists early, but this is only a small part, and most startups are struggling on the death line.
Now that the richest man in the world has released the news that he wants to support start-up companies, as long as he has confidence, he can come to talk to Shen Shoufu about his ideals or entrepreneurial ideas, although everyone only has five to ten minutes, but it is also an opportunity.
As long as you can get the approval of Shen Shoufu, you can get a large amount of money.
For those Genes who are struggling on the death line, how can they let go of such an opportunity.
So, Boss Shen listened with great interest to the entrepreneurs in Silicon Valley who talked about their ideals and entrepreneurial ideas for three days.
Wall Street peers and Silicon Valley tech bigwigs watched the joke for three days, no one thinks that Boss Shen can find real gold on this beach that has been screened countless times, you have talent in the speculative market and the stock market, everyone admits this, and has to accept it, but it does not mean that you can also find real gold in the field of venture capital.
Up to now, Boss Shen has not had any outstanding performance in the field of venture capital.
The only thing I can show off is the company that makes robots in Shencheng.
If you want to pan for gold in Silicon Valley, how can it be so easy, and the Wall Street gang is not blind.
Wall Street peers and Silicon Valley bigwigs thought it was a good joke, so they liked it.
Shen Hui was also very painful, after listening to the ideals and entrepreneurial ideas for three days, he found that there were few reliable ones, and what was even more excessive was that there were even liars to cheat, which was very unpleasant.
In order to avoid scaring people away, I resisted the urge to drive those scammers out directly.
Fortunately, it was not without results, and a few valuable projects were found.
After listening to the ideal for three days, only less than 10 million were scattered, and Shen Hui was a little unhappy.
He can't spend any money he wants, so he can't find someone to reason with.
There are so many startups in Silicon Valley that it is not impossible to cast money if you really want to, and it is the consistent practice of venture capital and capitalists to cast a wide net, except for God, no one dares to guarantee that they can get 100% of their investment back, otherwise how can it be called venture capital.
Even the world's top venture capital firms are far from as glamorous and glamorous as they appear to be.
Even if you really have a unique vision, there is a lot of gambling luck, but you caught a net of fish, very lucky to find a few large and particularly valuable ones, only to be lucky to reap fame and fortune, if you study carefully, you will find that those well-known top venture capital institutions invest in projects that have lost far more than the projects that have returned.
Of course, if you can catch one or two big fish, even if you lose a hundred projects, you can make a lot of money.
Shen Hui doesn't do this kind of thing to cast a wide net to try his luck, for a hanging deputy who has a hanging, it is a stupid thing to do, even if it is troublesome to find a needle in a haystack, it is much stronger than casting a wide net to gamble on luck, if you can't catch a goldfish at most, it will take a little effort, if you are lucky to catch one, it will be a million profits, and it is better if the fools on Wall Street do not participate.
Since Wall Street is not involved, Shen Hui happens to eat alone.
There aren't many opportunities to get this way, and when they eat fatty meat in the future, those people will definitely get involved.
The opportunity is rare, and Shen Hui is ready to seize the opportunity to cut a few more leeks from Silicon Valley.
It would be even better if you could catch a super big fish or two.
However, judging from the situation in the past three days, it seems that the super big fish with amazing potential has not been found.
When Boss Shen listened to entrepreneurs talk about their ideals and entrepreneurial ideas in Silicon Valley, the Shen family's tour group also went to Europe, and Huang Peipei picked up people at Athens Airport and went directly to the Aegean Sea first.
