Chapter 234: The Money Is Coming
Professor David of Stanford University, since he saw the Bee instant chat software in class, has been absent-minded and often even walks in a state of thinking.
This software made him suddenly realize that he could still use the Internet to achieve instant chat, and he seized that little inspiration, and wondered if he could develop a similar product.
The salaries of ordinary university professors in the United States are not high, most of them are in the middle class, they are not short of food and clothing, but they also can't save too much money.
First there was Stanford, and then there was Silicon Valley, and many teachers at Stanford University have successfully started businesses and earned wealth by virtue of their unique geographical and resource advantages, and Professor David, who is in his forties, has recently considered taking a break from work for a period of time to concentrate on entrepreneurship.
In this era, Silicon Valley is generally impetuous, similar to the gold diggers who came to the West back then, and the rhetoric of changing the world and changing human life can be heard as a joke, and 99 out of 100 people are just for both wealth and fame.
In the morning, I asked my colleague to check the patent, and found that some of my ideas had not been registered, and after pondering for several hours, I finally gritted my teeth and came to the door of the principal's office......
Everyone thinks they can succeed until they really fail.
It is true that Su Mu has applied for many patents, but it is impossible to do everything, and the brainy entrepreneurs are now trying their best to bypass his patent barriers, and some people are trying to cooperate with him.
Since the birth of hypertext link technology last year, the development of the Internet has taken a big step forward, and with the increase in the number of users, Internet companies have also ushered in spring.
A variety of programs have been developed, some are being developed, unlike previous years, no longer limited to office software, the explosive growth of resources on the network, just the domain name registration company has been put into use for half a month, there are more than 26,000 domain names, mainly personal websites.
Firefly online news website was born in this context, Su Mu changed the name of the parent company, but did not change the name of this news website, now there is not much news on it, mainly from the Internet search to obtain useful information, put on it for users to browse.
The Nasdaq index has increased by about 19 percent over last year, making the new White House leader George H.W. Bush pay more attention to Silicon Valley and give a lot of preferential policies.
So before the deadline for paying taxes in mid-April, Su Mu learned from Blake that he had underpaid more than $2 million in taxes, which was a happy thing.
On the morning of the sixteenth.
Su Mu was woken up by the ringtone of his mobile phone in his sleep, complaining about who called to harass him early in the morning, and when he heard what he said, he immediately jumped out of bed!
The huge amount of money obtained from the sale of Qugou shares has been hit in his account!
The 15th is the deadline for paying taxes, and the choice of entering the account on the 16th means that you will not need to pay personal income tax until April next year.
Mr. Senna had discussed "legal tax avoidance", so he only had $200 million extra in his account, and the rest was deposited in an account in Switzerland to invest in countries other than the United States, and he did not have to bear a huge personal income tax until he transferred the money back to the United States.
After so many years of capital flight in the United States, under President Reagan's policy of cutting taxes and raising interest rates, international travel capital has flowed to the United States in the past few years, which has greatly stimulated the financial market and the property market.
Now that President Bush Sr. has come to power, before the policy is clear, the capital has quietly left the United States, and Su Mu and Senna's approach is normal, just like Galaxy's parent company is registered in California, but its subsidiaries are registered in the Cayman Islands.
While eating breakfast, Lily, who was temporarily living in Su Mu's house, saw him smile and couldn't help asking, "Is there good news from the Empire State Building, or is your company's program very popular, why are you so happy?"
"Yes, my money has arrived, and I finally don't have to count my fingers to calculate how to spend it, it's right to make money over the years, but I haven't been able to get really rich, and the assets in the account rarely exceed eight figures, if the next development goes well, I shouldn't have to worry about running out of money. ”
Lily rolled her eyes when she heard this, and felt that she really shouldn't have asked this question, and said, "Isn't there any money if the assets in the account are not eight figures?" ”
Su Mu smiled, happy to be sarcastic, and asked, "What about your money, didn't you say that the oil painting had already been sold at the spring auction?"
"I sold $70.3 million, which is a lot higher than I expected, and I bought the four stocks that you recommended to me, Nike, Adidas, Microsoft, and Oracle, respectively, and my father's analysts were very optimistic about the Nike sporting goods store, so I invested $35 million in it, and I successfully became a poor person in your mouth. ”
Lily was just joking, and she didn't speak loudly, and Su Dingcai, who was sitting not far away, heard it and almost choked to death with a mouthful of milk.
Originally, I heard my son say that her family conditions were good, but I didn't expect to be so rich, even as Su Mu's biological father, I couldn't help but feel that my son was really lucky, and when he met such a good girl, there was no shortage of family affairs, brains, education, appearance, etc., and his personality was even more speechless.
"It's good to diversify your investments and avoid risks. ”
Su Mu didn't look at his father, and continued: "The money in my account is too lost, so I can leave about 40 to 50 million, and take out some of the rest to invest in Silicon Valley companies, and buy some stocks to try."
You're graduating this year, and you've really decided to come and work with me?"
"Well, I have some money left, you can introduce me a good project and want to start a company. ”
"It's okay, the Empire State Building should be settled soon, Attorney Thompson said to go to the meeting at eleven o'clock, so ......" Su Mu glanced at his watch, "It's now, I should be able to tell me the details later." ”
The East Coast is three hours faster than the West Coast, and it's early in the morning at eight o'clock in Menlo Park, and it's already past eleven o'clock in New York City.
On the 14th, Su Mu learned that the Empire State Building United Company was trying to acquire the Empire State Building, and the bid was fair, and he did not agree to the other party's proposal to merge or get part of the right to benefit.
Thompson's lawyer negotiated the merger with the other party, and the other party unexpectedly agreed to the idea of merger and reached a settlement on this lawsuit, but was only willing to give Su Mu 35 percent of the shares of the new company after the merger, and yesterday Thompson insisted on 45 percent, according to Su Mu's idea, more than 40 percent can be agreed...... 8)
