Chapter 351 meets Su Tingting again

What Yang Chenglin had always thought about was that he could get venture capital and keep the management of the company in the hands of his three co-founders.

As venture capital firms, they generally value the future growth of the company and how high the return on investment can bring to them. As for the management of the business, they don't care.

But for Hu Yang, he wants to develop and expand the chip design company of Charm Technology Group, and overseas acquisitions are nothing more than technology and talents, how can he give up the company's dominance to others?

After listening to Hu Yang's words, Yang Chenglin secretly sighed in his heart.

At that time, the three co-founders invested $500,000, and since the establishment of Ripper, the company has less than $200,000 on its books.

Without a new injection of money, how close is Ripper from going out of business?

"Mr. Hu, I need to go back and discuss this matter with my partner, and I'll give you an answer in two days, is that okay?"

Yang Chenglin decided to have a good talk with the two co-founders after going back, and at present, it seems that the entrepreneurial project of the three of them can almost be regarded as a failure.

According to Hu Yang's acquisition plan, it is equivalent to Yang Chenglin and others selling the company, including the company's technology, patents and so on.

"Okay, Dr. Yang, you can discuss the acquisition slowly. I'm probably going to be in the U.S. for a while, and I'll have the time to do it. ”

Hu Yang smiled, this kind of thing is not easy to rush, and when the other party understands it, he will naturally know how to choose.

"Mr. Hu, then I will leave first, please stay. ”

Yang Chenglin got up to say goodbye, and Hu Yang personally sent him out of the hotel.

"Mr. Hu, Mr. Sun just said that let me tell you that it may be difficult for Ruipo Company to pull down the investment, and we should treat the acquisition with a normal heart. ”

After Lin Yan sent Sun Yunyi away before, she didn't go into the café again to facilitate Hu Yang and Yang Chenglin to talk about things.

"Haha, Sun Yunyi, this guy is really interesting. ”

If Sun Yunyi asked Lin Yan to bring it, it was tantamount to giving Populus Hu the bottom line. Obviously, between friends and Populus euphratica, Sun Yunyi chose Populus euphratica.

In the evening, Manager Liao held a small dinner party in a western restaurant.

The dinner was attended by 8 employees from Huijia Ventures (North America) and more than 30 employees from the Silicon Valley Research Institute of Charisma Chip Design.

These employees all know that the company's big boss has come to the United States, and most of them have seen Populus euphratica for the first time.

Hu Yang walked into this small restaurant, greeted everyone with a smile, and was accompanied by Manager Liao, Lin Yan and Shao Qing.

"Mr. Hu, about half of these employees, including the research institute, are white, and some are Chinese-Americans. Of our North American venture capital staff, only me and one other employee were transferred from Hong Kong, and the rest were locals. At the research institute, the ratio of domestic employees to foreign employees is about 1 to 1. ”

At a small dinner party, Hu Yang really felt some differences between foreign branches and mainland companies.

Before the meal, he spoke a few short words, and then announced that the meal was open.

"Mr. Hu, there are many differences in working abroad, and I have basically adapted to it now. ”

Manager Liao and Shao Qing took turns acting as interpreters for Hu Yang, and the daily communication between North American venture capital and the institute was in English.

The person in charge of the institute, surnamed Yu, was transferred from China. He didn't talk much and drank very little throughout the night.

When there was no one else around Hu Yang, he came over and sat down.

"Director Yu, far away in a foreign country, there are always such and such difficulties, and it is hard for everyone. By the way, are you familiar with Reper?"

Hu Yang encouraged Director Yu a few words, and then talked about Ruipo Company.

"I'm not very familiar with this company, except that several of their founders left Micron to start their own businesses. Hey, if these people can join our chip design company, it will definitely increase the company's technical strength by several orders of magnitude. ”

Director Yu of the research institute has heard of the technical path of Ruipo, which happens to complement the technology with the chip design company of Charm Technology.

"Very good! I'm interested in buying Ripper, and when negotiations officially begin, you'll be involved as a technical advisor. However, at present, this matter is still in the stage of secrecy, so don't make a big deal of publicity for the time being. ”

After listening to Director Yu's words, Hu Yang was very excited. Now that Ripper's technology is in dire need, it's time to reassess the value of the company.

Of course, Hu Yang did not forget to explain to Director Yu to avoid letting Ruipo know the bottom line on his side.

"Okay, Mr. Hu, I remember. If the acquisition of Ripper can be successful, it will undoubtedly bring huge development opportunities to the company. ”

Director Yu sighed with emotion, not to mention the design company, but only to the Silicon Valley Research Institute, so far, the research has made progress, but not much progress. To put it bluntly, technology does not exist in a vacuum, it needs to be accumulated slowly on a certain basis.

And what the chip design company of Charm Technology Group lacks is precisely the heritage.

The dinner party lasted for more than two hours, and the employees were very excited, but they didn't expect the big boss to have no shelf at all, and everyone could say a few words to him.

Following.

After breakfast, Hu Yang plans to go to Robt Agency, and he wants to meet Tom. This time, the financing project of Ruipo Company was introduced by Tom to Huijia Ventures.

Hu Yang didn't let Manager Liao send a car over, and the venture capital company had a total of seven or eight cats, so it was better not to affect the normal work of others.

Anyway, the hotel itself has a car rental service, with a driver, Hu Yang directly rented two cars.

"Oh! I just got a call from the front desk, and I almost thought my ear was misheard. It's really you, Mr. Hu, and welcome to San Francisco again. ”

Tom greeted him very exaggeratedly and invited Hu Yang, Lin Yan, and Shao Qing into his office.

"Tom, thank you for everything, you have helped my company a lot, and they all say you are doing a good job. ”

Hu Yang felt that although the fees of Robt Brokerage Company were not low, they were worth the money. Therefore, when they met, he complimented Tom a few words.

"Mr. Hu, your satisfaction with my work is the best reward for me. I'm sorry, I don't have tea here, only coffee, please use it slowly. ”

Tom was very kind to bring in a few cups of hot coffee, and Poplar was his big customer, so he had to deal with it carefully.

Actually, it didn't matter if Hu Yang came over today, just to have a casual chat with Tom. At the same time, he continued to focus on some high-tech companies that need to make their first round of financing, with a focus on semiconductors, software, and consumer electronics.

After talking to Tom for about an hour, Poplar left Robert's agency, and Tom kept sending him downstairs.

"Mr. Hu, Mr. Hu ......"

Separated from Tom, Hu Yang and his party walked to the location where they had parked before. The driver was already standing next to the car and waiting, and opened the door, and the service was still in place.

Hu Yang just wanted to get into the car, when he suddenly heard someone shouting to him. turned his head and looked privately, and saw a beautiful girl with a hot body, waving at him.

Hu Yang looked at it, isn't this Su Tingting?

"Assistant Lin, you wait for me. ”

Hu Yang smiled and said a word to Lin Yan, and then walked to Su Tingting's side, and Li Jie and Lu Dacheng followed not far away.

"Miss Su, let's meet again. Hu Yang walked to Su Tingting and stood not far away, said hello, and then pointed to the Lamborghini parked next to her, and said, "This is your car? ”

Su Tingting pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "What real person doesn't show up, did I say anything? No, when did Mr. Hu come to the United States?"

"I only arrived yesterday, so I have nothing to do here. What about you? Are you still in school?"

Hu Yang remembered that Su Tingting seemed to be still in college, and he didn't know what school it was.

"Well, I'll be graduating next year. Mr. Hu doesn't seem to be very busy lately, so he actually has time to hang out. I said, the last time I met you at sea, I hung up the communicator before I finished speaking. Is it ungraceful for you to treat a lady like this?"

Su Tingting gritted her teeth secretly, last time Hu Yang made her angry.

The sentence, "Hello Miss Su, goodbye Miss Su", made her a laughing stock for her girlfriends.

"Oh, yes? I don't even remember. Miss Su, the situation was a little special at that time, if you are offended, please don't take it to heart. ”

Hu Yang didn't want to get into an argument with a girl on the street, so he skipped the topic with a haha.

"Hmph! not at all. Mr. Hu, if you really plan to apologize to me, why don't you invite me to dinner at noon. Well, let's go to Chinatown for Chinese food. ”

Su Tingting talked to herself and made a decision directly.

Hu Yang never inquired about Su Tingting's identity and background, and he wanted to know what this rich girl was thinking.

Looking at his watch, it was still early, so he said, "Okay, then it's noon, I'll wait for you in Chinatown." I remember there was a big Sichuan restaurant there, and you weren't afraid of spicy food, right?"

"Okay, I like to eat Sichuan food the most, so it's decided, one o'clock at noon, see you there. ”

After Su Tingting finished speaking, she got into her own Lamborghini, and opened the line of sight of Hu Yang as soon as she slipped away.

Hu Yang turned around and returned to his car and got into the car.

"Boss, where are we going now?"

Lin Yan doesn't like Su Tingting's woman very much, but she won't talk too much in front of Hu Yang, this is not a problem she should touch.

"Well, go to Huijia Ventures. ”

Walker Ventures (North America) has only eight employees and is located not far from here.

Ten minutes later, Hu Yang sat in Manager Liao's office.

Manager Liao reported to Hu Yang on his recent work, and venture capital companies have invested in several small companies in Silicon Valley, with a total investment of about $17 million.

Mr. Hu, these investments will be realized within one to two years, and the return on investment is expected to be about 130%. ”

With an ROI of 1.3 times and a cash in place within two years, Hu Yang is still very satisfied with the early work of the venture capital company.

"Manager Liao, everyone's work has been fruitful, and I hope you will continue to work hard. Okay, that's all for today, you guys get on with your work, I'm leaving. ”

Hu Yang didn't ask about the specific business situation, and the review of Huijia Venture Capital was something that Xia Bing needed to be responsible for, and he just came to see it by the way.

"Assistant Lin, let's go to Chinatown for dinner at noon. But I made an appointment with Miss Su, you can arrange what you have for lunch. ”

Hu Yang needed to talk to Su Tingting alone, and he decided to have a showdown with the other party directly, and he didn't have time to continue playing games with her.

Coming to the Sichuan restaurant in Chinatown on time, Hu Yang found a table and just sat down, Su Tingting came over.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Hu, for keeping you waiting. ”

"Why? I've just been there for a while. Miss Su, I'll invite you at noon, just order whatever you want to eat. ”

Waiting for Su Tingting to sit down, Hu Yang pushed the menu in front of her eyes.

Su Tingting did not shirk, ordered four dishes and one soup, and let the waiter serve the food.

"Mr. Hu, have you always been curious about my identity? Actually, it's not a secret, my father is Su Cheng. ”

The wine and food were all together, and the two chatted while eating. There was no white wine at noon, Hu Yang only ordered a bottle of red wine, and both of them tasted it lightly.

Suddenly, Su Tingting took the initiative to mention her family history.

"I said, it turns out that you are the eldest lady of Sioux City, disrespectful and disrespectful. ”

The great name of Sioux City, it is impossible for Hu Yang not to know. It's just that he can know Su Cheng, not because of Su Cheng himself, but because of the family glory that shrouds him.

Immediately afterward, Hu Yang remembered a rumor.

Rumor has it that Sioux City is the boss behind Ankang Insurance, and An Zhi is just a puppet on the table.

At this time, looking at Su Tingting again, there was a subtle change in Hu Yang's eyes.

"You don't have to guess, I know all the grievances between you and Ann. I can tell you that I just wanted to see what kind of person it was to make An Zhizhi, who has always been smooth sailing, deflated. Later, I didn't know you...... First of all, I have nothing to do with the grievances and grievances between you men, and I never ask my father about business. ”

Now that Hu Yang can invite herself to this meal, the anger in Su Tingting's heart has disappeared. She was now purely interested in the person of Populus euphratica.

You must know that even her father Su Cheng, under the light of the glory of the family, his achievements before the age of thirty are far inferior to Populus euphratica.

Is he really from the grassroots?

Hu Yang couldn't help but be silent, he had always wanted to know Su Tingting's identity and background, but when she said it herself, he really felt a little incredible.

Over the years, he has only had a few opponents who have never been able to get around, and Ankang Insurance is undoubtedly one of them.

Of course, he no longer has to doubt Su Tingting's intentions now, how can Su Cheng let his daughter come out to pay him?

In the second half of lunch, the atmosphere between Hu Yang and Su Tingting was much better.

After eating, Hu Yang and Su Tingting separated. For this eldest lady of the Su family, although he let down his guard, he would not get too close, just treat him as an ordinary friend.
