It's a great feeling to stand on a tall building and look down on the many pedestrians below.

Su Mu followed Mr. Senna and went to several banks one after another, all of them were warmly welcomed, and those with lower status were embarrassed to come, at least they were personally received by department managers.

With 2.1 million shares of Microsoft stock, it is difficult for those people to imagine that a young Chinese man has so many shares and cannot falsify his identity, and soon someone found out through the network that Microsoft does have a Chinese shareholder who rarely shows up, and he is also a member of Microsoft's board of directors.

Today's Microsoft company, the status is not very high, but investors feel that it has potential and hope to hold it as soon as possible and wait for appreciation.

Smelling the smell of interests, many Wall Street people knew the news, Merrill Lynch sent a representative to wait for Su Mu at the door of Citibank, and opened his mouth to be 126 million US dollars, trying to buy all the stocks from him at a premium of 30 percent!

Su Mu was very cool, only shook his head and said "I refuse", without even the slightest intention to talk about it, Mr. Senna watched the excitement from the side, muttering that this is like a rich man.

At home, he is still a good grandson who obeys his grandfather's words, but he already has the strength to be noticed by others in Chinatown, and his fate is so wonderful.

If he hadn't heard from the old radio station in 1984, he might have been admitted to a good university, and then he would have been hired by a good company and started his ordinary life.

There is never a shortage of smart people in the world, what is lacking is a bright road in front of smart people, there is a golden road in front of Su Mu, and the roadside is full of opportunities and gold!

While willing to buy, while willing to sell, Prudential Company sent staff in the afternoon to discuss with Su Mu face-to-face transaction, at first the other party thought that he was himself, because in the impression of Americans in this era, only he was the richest and could easily take out so much money.

Knowing Su Mu's Chinese-American identity, including the senior vice president of Prudential Insurance Company, they were shocked, in their impression, except for Wang An, whose status has plummeted, there is almost no second Chinese billionaire, and the status quo is like this, so Lily will say that Su Mu is in an embarrassing situation of isolation and helplessness, and let him expand his network as much as possible.

On Wall Street, money is king.

No one looks down on Su Mu because he is Chinese, and he wants to buy the Empire State Building quietly, which is enough to show that he has strong financial resources, and skin color is very important in high-level circles in society, but it is not the most important thing, money is.

Morgan Bank loan, with 800,000 shares of Microsoft as collateral, took more than two hours to complete the procedures smoothly, and the next morning was busy for half a day, during which there were no accidents, Su Mu became the new owner of the Empire State Building, the procedures have almost been completed, all the processes have been simplified, and the speed is very fast.

When chatting with Lily a few days ago, she told Su Mu that it was best to market herself and turn herself into a celebrity, preferably a household name, which would definitely help her in the future.

felt that it made sense, so the New York Times reporter came to the Empire State Building to interview him that afternoon, and successfully met Su Mu in a black suit, followed by several Empire State Building leaders, no matter how you look at it, he looks like a successful person...... It should be said that he is a successful person!

Sitting in the luxuriously decorated conference room at this time, Su Mu did not have an office for the time being, and there was a chubby female reporter in her thirties opposite him, with dark skin and wearing a pair of black-framed glasses, and asked Su Mu: "You have been interviewed by our newspaper last time, right, and you have been in the headlines with President Bush?"

Don't be too nervous, I'll ask you some questions, and if you find it hard to answer, just let me know and I'll skip those. ”

"No, the last time it was Mr. Bush, I didn't know I was going to be on the news. ”

Su Mu faced a formal interview with reporters for the first time, and the New York Times, one of the largest circulation newspapers on the East Coast, had a large readership, and it was strange that he was not nervous, and then said, "I see, what do you want to know?"

"It's not that I want to know anything, it's that the citizens of New York want to know who the new owner of the Empire State Building has become, and you look so young, born in a Chinese family in California?"

It seems that this reporter did not investigate beforehand, and hurried after receiving the news that the Empire State Building was changing hands, and did not know the identity of the buyer, or that Su Mu was too famous.

In the past, they were too low-key, Jobs, Gates and others were in the limelight when they had a net worth of tens of millions of dollars, but Su Mu became a billionaire at a younger age than them, but he was unknown, and he even needed to ask about his place of birth and race.

He replied, "Yes, I am Chinese, I came to the United States from my great-grandfather's generation, and I participated in the construction of the California Railroad. ”

The female reporter subconsciously asked: "Wow, that's really a long time ago! What kind of profession did your parents engage in, and they can cultivate a young rich man like you, which is definitely a great person." ”

"It's different from what you think. ”

Su Mu smiled bitterly and shook his head: "My grandfather worked as a tailor in Chinatown, helping people make cheap suits for about a hundred dollars, and my father used to be a fisherman, and then opened a small restaurant, as you know, many Chinese people open restaurants to make a living."

My mother worked as a laundry worker to help me raise money for private high school, washed bed sheets in hotels, and had cracked hands in my hands. ”

“……”

Completely unexpected, she asked in a puzzled tone: "High school, at your current age, is it what just happened in the past few years?"

"That's right, before the summer of '84, my family was very poor, and then I was lucky enough to make some money and invest in a supermarket, which is now going to be listed, at least worth more than 300 million dollars. ”

"Oh my God! That's crazy! So why did you want to buy the Empire State Building because you made money from the supermarket?" The female reporter felt that readers would like this kind of news, and the children of poor families became rich through their own efforts, holding a pen and constantly recording key content in a notebook.

Su Mu shook his head and said: "That's not the case, after I went to Menlo Park in California's Silicon Valley area to study in high school, I started to sell computers, and later produced my own computers, the product is called Penguin, and so far I have made about 200 million US dollars, mainly because the company and brand are valuable."

Later, he founded an email software, which now has hundreds of thousands of users and is valued at about $100 million, and the reason why I decided to buy the Empire State Building is because I want to prove that I can, that we Chinese can also be successful, that people can understand us, and get rid of prejudice against Chinese people. ”

"This ...... This really surprised me. I would like to ask you a question, can you tell me how much money you've made over the years?"

The topic is a little sensitive, but since he decided to be in the limelight, Su Mu thought it was okay to say it, and added: "I still hold more than two million shares of Microsoft stock, and Merrill Lynch is willing to pay $126 million to buy it in the morning."

In addition to this, there is a patent, some time ago Oracle CEO Mr. Ellison wanted to exchange it with me for 30 million US dollars, plus 5% of the company's shares, this company has a market value of more than 5 billion US dollars on the NASDAQ, so ...... It's a lot of money, and last month Mr. Bush said that it would add three million jobs, precisely because of my patent. ”

The female reporter sitting opposite him had an extremely wonderful expression, as if she was looking at God!

didn't tell Su Mu, in fact, I came to interview him with the mentality of watching a joke, the Empire State Building, a landmark building in New York, was actually bought by a Chinese young man quietly, and she thought that there would definitely be many New York residents who mocked it in advance.

However, now, I learned that Su Mu started a business in high school and made hundreds of millions of dollars in a few years, if it weren't for the fact that the Empire State Building was really bought by him, the female reporter would even think he was joking!

When did the money become so good to make!?

With Su Mu's calm tone, the female reporter was completely frightened, she forgot to ask questions for a while, her mind was full of money, and she couldn't figure out how a poor Chinese boy from a poor family could accumulate this terrifying wealth in just a few years!

Seeing the expressions of her and the other New York Times staff, Su Mu thought to himself, and his answer seemed to be okay......
