The company has not escaped Su Mu's supervision, but it really doesn't need Su Mu to worry about it, which is a good thing, but it feels very bad, and there is always an illusion of doing nothing recently.

After James and Herberg left, Su Mu picked up his son and said to himself: "Your father and I seem to have become the mascots of the company, and we can deal with those media all day to promote the company."

Baby, will you be like this in the future, and when you grow up, you won't have to worry about you, and enjoy life by yourself?"

As if in response to Su Mu, his son smiled extremely happily, and opened his hand to hug him, and spit out a large section of "pa~pa~pa~" in his mouth, which was calling his father.

Black hair and black eyes, big eyes, because it is mixed-race, the facial features are more three-dimensional, if it is not for too much flesh on the small face, most of them are a little handsome guy.

The happy Su Mu kissed his son's face, smooth and tender like an egg, the baby of this age is the cutest, he likes to stick to Su Mu or Lily all day long, and he sleeps when he is tired of playing, except for pulling the poop and sticking to the buttocks, or when he is hungry, there is no trouble at all.

Some people think that the life of the super-rich is colorful, and opening a company is to be busy all day and night, but in fact this is not the case, a well-developed company will not let the boss himself do too much work, and boredom is also one of the reasons why Su Mu has not come to the company often recently.

After sitting in the office for a while, listening to the briefing on the merger with Apple, he went out to find something to do, and took a helicopter to the southern town of Santa Clara, to the "Garden of Eden" hatchery near the sea, named by Mr. Ellison, this guy seems to like mythical names, just like Sumu named insects and animals, as can be seen from the name of Oracle (oracle) company.

With an investment of more than $100 million, the IT industry incubator mainly accepts "small businesses" with a market value of less than $50 million, and has built a total of three huge four-story office buildings, with an occupancy rate of less than 35 percent, which is growing quite rapidly because of the cheap rent and the success of making a reputation.

Recently, it is not easy to rent out garages in the Silicon Valley area, and many entrepreneurs choose to come to Eden, and last month alone, there were two small listed companies, with a scale of about 20 million or 30 million US dollars.

Most of the small companies invested by Su Mu have now moved here, and even the Galaxy Group has moved several project development teams here because of too many people, and among the more than 200 start-up companies, the most important thing for him is the Maple Leaf Book House.

When I invested in this small company, I can only say that it was a whim, I thought the idea of selling physical books through the Internet was very interesting, and I invested some money casually, but I didn't expect it to really start developing, the latest financing, is according to the market value of 60 million US dollars to absorb a sum of money invested by Su Mu, the scale is enough to go public, the founder Mr. Jeff Bezos mentioned the idea of trying to go public, but was politely rejected by the actual major shareholder Su Mu, he does plan to arrange for listing, but not now.

Start once, come once when construction, and come once after completion, because it is an ordinary office building, the construction speed is quite fast, it only took half a year from the start to the completion, and there is an area ranging from 100 square meters to 2,000 square meters of "office area", the annual rent is very low, and the cost per square meter is only about 40 cents a day, so Ellison is also said to be "a rare generosity".

This is the fourth time Su Mu has come to this industrial incubation park, and he probably knows where the office building of Maple Leaf Book House is, and the location is what he personally helped choose.

Its mode of operation is that after the user places an order from the Internet, the corresponding goods are retrieved from the warehouse, and sent to the customer through FedEx or the United States Postal Service, and after paying the cash and postage in person, the two companies will put the money into the company's account, about once a month, after all, the amount is too small, and it can't take time to call every transaction.

Su Mu felt that there should be a way to conduct capital flow transactions through the Internet, but the corresponding regulations had not been introduced, and he could not open his own bank to provide this kind of service, not to mention that with the current transaction volume of about 300,000 US dollars per day in Maple Leaf Books, it was not worth it.

Said to be a "book house", in fact, the sales category is not only limited to books, but also sells some records, office supplies, daily necessities and other messy things, the type is growing, sales are also increasing, for this OO and Bee two companies, but also specifically provided advertising space, because they are listed, the money should still be given, Su Mu himself helped himself to give a discount, the name is because of long-term cooperation, it is slightly cheaper.

This is a brand new industry, Su Mu has not heard of other companies involved in the field of online shopping, and now this company is used as a test subject, he wants to know whether there is a market for this industry that may subvert the traditional model of product sales, from the current point of view, the future growth space is very large.

The occupancy rate is too low, the left and right sides are still empty, and there are not too many people in sight, and there are more than 10,000 startups in Silicon Valley, but there are many of them, and they belong to the kind that comes and goes quickly.

Some entrepreneurs will be discouraged after two to three months, or change projects, or change industries, if they don't get investment, the vast majority of entrepreneurs will soon go bankrupt, Silicon Valley is showing a high frequency of renewal, and the companies that can really succeed are only a few after all.

Holding the baby into the office area, although the sparrow is small, there are almost all the organs, the number of employees is now only more than 60 people, what makes Su Mu feel strange is that many employees look at themselves strangely, and some actually put their items into cardboard boxes, like being fired, and there are not a few people who empty their things.

Su Mu met with the founding fathers of this company a few times, and asked one of the more familiar young people, "How did you pack up your things, what are you doing?"

The other party's expression was unnatural, and he stopped talking, and then said, "Jeff is in the office, you go and ask him." ”

……

A few minutes later, from Mr. Jeff Bezos's office, Su Mu's voice said, "Hmm, you're going to sell your stake in this company......?"

Su Mu wanted to say that the cooperation was very good, but he didn't say it, he suddenly understood what Mr. Bezos meant, he had recently made money, and he wanted to jump out and do it alone.

Maple Leaf Book House said that it was a company founded by Bezos, but in fact, he has become a minority shareholder, and eighty percent of the equity is in Su Mu's hands, which was originally not so much, but after a few increases, it has become so much......
