Chapter 301: The Rich Circle of Silicon Valley
Intrigued?
How can there be a reason not to make money if there is money, Su Mu did not agree to Mr. Senna last time, mainly because he was worried that something would go wrong and the investment would be wasted.
I believe in Senna's influence in the United States, but it was the Soviet Union, and the connections on the American side were useless, Su Mu didn't know the senior Soviet officials, and he didn't know how to transfer the company's technology to the United States, so he decided not to interfere after thinking about it for a few days.
It is said that it is easy to make money from the Soviet Union, but Su Mu has no way to make money, and even if the money is easy to make, it is not something he can earn.
There is also news that some people even bought nuclear warheads, missiles, etc., from the Soviet arsenal, and the guns, bullets, etc. were directly pulled away with the purchased helicopter gunships, and I don't know whether it is true or false for the time being, but when it is like this, he does not dare to make money, because it is not necessary, and he does not know how to operate, after all, he still did not enter that circle, and he did not have access to too much inside information.
Larry Ellison is sitting opposite Sumu at the moment, accompanied by Mr. Macrini, one of the founders of Sun, compared to Sumu's corporate headquarters, Oracle's corporate headquarters is much more luxurious, Mr. Ellison will make money, and will spend money to enjoy, and is instilling his own consumption concept in Sumu:
"Money, earned back is spent, every time I see your little plane parked in my airport, I blush for you, since you have made so much money and are so young, why not enjoy it?
Just now you said that you want to go to Huaxia, take my plane to go, enjoy it in the air, you must also be willing to spend money to buy it, the company's stock price has risen crazy on the NASDAQ, we should enjoy the benefits of this wealth. Paul Allen actually laughed at my yacht for being too small, and my Rising Sun was a little longer than him, and he was angry with that guy! There is no good thing in Microsoft, Leon, sell Microsoft stock and invest in my Oracle!"
Okay.
They all say that they don't want to do to others, don't do to others, in the head of Larry Ellison, a straightforward playboy, there is no concept of this at all, he was ridiculed by Mr. Paul Allen, one of the founders of Microsoft, and he felt unhappy before spending 200 million US dollars to order the Rising Sun private yacht, and in a blink of an eye, he immediately ridiculed Su Mu's Gulfstream IV business jet as too small, undoubtedly inserting a few knives into Su Mu's heart.
was ridiculed, but there was no way to refute it, the price of Ellison's Boeing 747-400 private jet can buy ten Gulfstream IVs, and the huge price difference is placed here, Su Mu is not as rich as Ellison, and he is not even half of Mr. Ellison, who is forty-six.
Aggrieved replied: "My company has not been listed yet, and recently all the money has been used for investment, not just bought nearly 200 million US dollars of Sun shares, money can become more money, not airplanes and yachts." ”
Mr. Macrini, the current CEO of Sun, said with a smile: "I have made a lot of money, you should treat me to dinner, the most expensive kind." ”
Su Mu has a more favorable impression of Macrini and makes an "OK" gesture.
Hearing Su Mu's words, Ellison shook his head helplessly: "So I don't have a good impression of you, you are completely a shrewd businessman who only knows how to make money, but does not spend money, there is a huge generation gap between us, a generation gap in thought." ”
"You are about the same age as my father, and it is inevitable that there will be a generation gap, why do people always say that I won't spend money?" Su Mu rolled his eyes and added: "I didn't just spend more than 30 million yuan to buy a golf course, but I also spent 50 million dollars to build a house." ”
"No, no, no, the house is lived, not a consumer product, maybe I have lived in the slum for a long time, with a smell of slamming the door, not as easy as me. If someone else said this, Su Mu probably thought that the other party was scolding him for being born humble, but it was Ellison who said this, and he didn't have much heart...... is just mocking in the open, everyone knows that this guy is a rotten person, but he can't be angry, as if it should be.
"It was definitely a bad decision for me to come here today, I don't have a private jet, I don't have an 80 million dollar house, I'm very hurt, I'll order a Boeing 747 when I go back later. Macrini sighed.
The corners of Su Mu's eyes twitched to look at him, what else could he say? Because of his injury, he had to spend more than 200 million dollars to buy a private jet, which was probably the same as Ellison and Paul Allen, so spending 200 million dollars to buy a yacht was the same reason.
I couldn't help but believe it, I really picked the door, and I realized more clearly what kind of circle I am in now, not to mention anything else, none of the three, including him, are worth less than 1.5 billion US dollars, Macrini is at the bottom, and together with Su Mu, Ellison is not rich, stained with Su Mu's light, Oracle's market value has risen wildly, and Ellison has also made a fortune.
"Okay, okay, you're all a bunch of crazy people, it seems like I'm a normal point, wait for a few companies to go public and then decide, if the development goes well, I'll order one.
Mr. Ellison, this is what you said yourself, when the time comes, lend me the plane for a few days, I want to feel how comfortable the three-story plane is, and bring you special products from Huaxia when the time comes. ”
Probably satisfied with the "special product", Ellison told him, "I want roast duck, fresh roast duck." ”
“...... Yes. ”
Today it was Ellison who brought Su Mu and Mr. Macrini in, and neither of them believed that Ellison was really just chatting with them, mainly because they didn't believe that Ellison had such good intentions, and the usual relationship between the three of them could only be regarded as average, each with his own thoughts.
Due to the popularity of Galaxy's products, Su Mu can finally be on an equal footing with these top technology bosses in Silicon Valley, and his personal strength is not too much different, and when it comes to the overall strength of the company, there is also a SUN company between Galaxy and Oracle, whether it is Oracle or SUN, they are the top five companies in Silicon Valley today, and it is difficult for Galaxy to enter the top ten, because he occupies a lot of shares in the company, and his personal strength alone is not bad.
Ellison coughed dryly, and just when Su Mu thought he was going to get down to business, he heard this guy ask, "Which of you wants to go with me to Hawaii to buy an island?" Lanai Island, a total of 141 square miles (365 square kilometers), 60 miles from Honolulu, is very convenient by plane or boat, I sent someone to talk to them, and the price was 300 million dollars, I can't use such a large island alone, I can divide it into two or three pieces, buy it together, erect a border, and no one goes to anyone's territory, and there are many pineapples planted on it, and the scenery is very beautiful. ”
Makrini was helpless, shook his head and said, "I'm not interested, don't beat around the bush, let's say, what is the reason for coming to us today? In order to meet you, I even postponed the board meeting until the afternoon, so I can't really smoke cigars with you and talk about how to grow pineapples?"
