Chapter 214: Wealth is not exposed

It's already fun to be able to spend time with each other.

Lily flew from Los Angeles to accompany Su Mu, and Su Mu didn't spend her lunch break to accompany her, because Lily mentioned looking at the house, and she was very happy, she didn't want to live up to her kindness, and she was so tired that she wanted to take a nap, so she still came with her.

She didn't think she owed herself anything for giving away an expensive piece of jewelry, and since she decided to buy it in New York last year, she was ready to give it to her, and now she noticed Lily's seriousness, so she simply didn't talk about it anymore, and let her negotiate with the real estate agent to buy the house as a gift for herself.

It took a while to call the bank to verify the authenticity of the check, and it took him some time to go back to the office before half past one, while Lily stayed here, ready to change out the sofa, TV, sheets, curtains, etc., and was excited to think about how to decorate it, and moved in tonight.

It's good that it won't be boring, Su Mu has already told her where to buy furniture, no matter how Lily tosses, it can be seen from the usual dressing that her taste is higher than that of ordinary people, so you don't have to worry about ruining the beauty.

Intermediate and senior programmers stay for meetings, and other employees are again given a half-day off, not ready today, and will start working officially tomorrow.

During the meeting with the new employees, he met with the director of the headhunter company, and asked him to help poach some senior software engineers, hardware engineers, etc. from several companies, with a salary higher than the standard of their original company, and promised to set up option shares to give them the opportunity to become shareholders of the company.

Reluctant to let the child not be a wolf, not to take out some real benefits, how can a talent be willing to jump ship, he does not have the kind of tiger body shock, let others obediently surrender the ability, as long as the program is successfully promoted in the future, it is worth the effort now.

Four Internet projects, each team is currently responsible for developing a program, the browser project team also needs to improve and upgrade the CNC browser, add some new features, the most important is to allow private registration of domain names, which will bind a large number of users and promote the development of the Internet.

In the discussion meeting that lasted for more than two hours, Su Mu temporarily used A, B, C, and D to represent four projects, namely instant chat, browsers, music players, and computer game development projects that had just been established.

The two-story office building that I just rented has changed a lot today, and some employees in the morning have already selected desks, cross-shaped, divided into four, and arranged according to their preferences, and the Penguin computer has also been put on the table.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Su Mu told the designer his ideas, such as a lounge with coffee, a library for employees to relax and entertain, a data storage room, a photocopying room, and so on.

I never thought that I would stay here for a long time in the future, and I haven't given up my plan to buy a piece of land in Silicon Valley to build a magnificent headquarters, so I just need to make it a comfortable and clean working environment.

Firefly company logo also to design, Su Mu asked the decoration designer to help introduce a graphic designer, after chatting it was already five o'clock, Penguin company's business manager told him that tomorrow with the intention of joining the investors to visit the production plant, ask him if he has time to go together.

The head of the sales department was anxious to tell him that the inventory was insufficient, and that there was a problem with one production line during commissioning, and it was estimated that it would be delayed for two days before it could continue to be put into production.

All in all, Su Mu was really busy today, from morning to night, called Blake to come back to help, and unexpectedly learned that she was going to take a cruise ship from Europe back to the United States, and he was so angry that he didn't know what to say......

At seven o'clock in the evening, I didn't have the strength to take the car home, and just now I went to the shared villa, packed up all the things over there and brought them over, and will live in a new house in the future.

On the way back, Mr. Ryan, the bodyguard in charge of driving, asked him: "Boss, it is best to install a security system in the new house, and the safe is also necessary.

My last employer bought several houses in the United States, including the one in Palm Springs that had been vacant for a long time, had only gone on vacation in the summer, had been occupied by thieves for half a year, and told his neighbors that he had bought the house and would not have known that his house was occupied by someone else if he had not gone to Palm Springs. ”

"I also have a set in Beverly Hills that is idle, if it weren't for the monthly deduction from the bank, I almost forgot that it existed, and the next time I go back to Los Angeles, I should find a chance to sell it, anyway, I won't go to live in it, maybe someone will secretly live in it." ”

Su Mu closed his eyes, spoke in a low voice, and added: "You want to buy the safe, you can look at the security system, talk to me after contacting, and use which product will be used if the company does a good job." ”

"Well, I'll help you connect ...... at night"

Not far from the new house, when I entered the door, I saw Lily wearing an apron and a plate in her hand, and asked her in a surprised tone, "Do you know how to cook?"

"I took cooking when I was in high school, and I could only do simple things, and when I went to your supermarket in the afternoon, I suddenly wanted to cook my own food, and I couldn't eat in a restaurant all the time, and I was still grilling chicken wings, and it was all right away. ”

"Awesome, my dad is a chef, but I never learned how to cook, you changed the oil painting on the wall? ”

"I changed a lot of things, including the ornaments in the kitchen cabinets, and I bought a total of six oil paintings, all of which were students' work, and the price was not high, but they looked beautiful. ”

After Lily put the dinner plate on the table, she walked up to Su Mu and asked him with a smile, "There is an extra room that is useless, what do you want to use it for, watch a movie, a storage room, a gym?"

"Buy some gym equipment and put it in it, I want to sleep first after eating, I'm sorry I can't accompany you to the movies, I'm tired today, I may be stupid, I should hire a professional manager to help me deal with things." ”

"Boredom can be managed by yourself, if there are too many things, it is better to ask a manager to help you, it is equivalent to spending money to buy time, so that you don't have to waste your precious life on small things......"

*******************

Lily stayed until January 10, when a girlfriend asked her to take a trip to Philadelphia before leaving Menlo Park.

Leonardo da Vinci's oil paintings had not yet been auctioned, and she did not have much money at her disposal for the time being, so she decided to postpone the investment.

The new project of the Firefly Company started, and the specific plan was still being designed, and it couldn't be finished for a while, and on the twelfth day, Blake finally returned to the Penguin Company, and with the help of James and others, Su Mu finally calmed down again.

There are two more assistants around him, one is called Allen and the other is called Megan, both of whom are in their twenties.

graduated from Cambridge and Columbia University respectively, the girl named Megan is not good-looking, and her personality is also independent, she is simply a young version of Blake, and it is no wonder that Blake took a fancy to her and hired her on behalf of Sumu.

A few days ago, the headhunting company sorted out a list, Su Mu selected more than a dozen talents from it, and the headhunting company arranged people to help him contact those engineers.

There is also a consulting company, which sorted out a corporate information for Su Mu, and he selected a few companies that may have potential, and asked his assistant Alan to contact each other and try to start angel investment, and the two companies in Silicon Valley are developing in a good direction.

On the 15th, I learned good news from the investment bank that acted as an agent for the listing procedures of Qugou, and the application had been approved, and the IPO time was initially set for early April this year.

On the same day, Su Mu rushed to San Francisco to take a flight to New York, because the lawsuit filed by lawyer Thompson on behalf of Su Mu has been passed by the New York federal court and is about to enter the trial process, which is a good thing......

Finally able to understand Blake's mood, eager to escape from the company to go on vacation, Su Mu's departure this time is also considered a "escape", staying in the company is a small thing, just from the invitation letter from Silicon Valley companies received a thick stack, Stanford University professor also made an appointment with him, asking Su Mu to hold a speech.

He is still a Yale student, and it is not appropriate to go to Stanford to give a speech, Su Mu is self-aware, except for making some money, there is no other benefit, so he politely refused.

After the Forbes rich list came out, Su Mu suddenly became a celebrity.

The New York Times once again used him to attract attention, this time in a different way, through him to elaborate on the life of Chinese Americans, because of Su Mu, the Chinese have finally been noticed by the mainstream media, and the influence is not big enough, but it has let many Chinese in Los Angeles know how rich the Su family is.

Su Mu's father is kind-hearted.

A few days ago, I was met by a Chinese, and after listening to the other party's tragic experience of her mother's illness and needing money for treatment, she promised to help the other party bear the medical expenses, thinking that her family had money, and she would help if she could.

When Su Mu's grandmother died, it was also because she didn't have enough money, which became a heart disease that made Su Dingcai regret it for a long time, and he only hated himself for not being able to make money, and he didn't want other people's families to have a tragedy.

This donation can be regarded as a hornet's nest, and the news spread quickly all over Los Angeles, and even some Chinese in San Francisco knew about it, attracting many Chinese who had no way out or were fishing in troubled waters, blocking the door of Su's house, one spoke more miserable than the other, and many knelt down.

Some people also said that they wanted to borrow money for their children to go to school, and even those who wanted to do business came to borrow money.

Distant relatives at my mother's house, I borrowed two million when I opened my mouth, and my mother was speechless, and my relatives who had not been in touch for many years came to talk about borrowing money, but it seemed like a matter of course.

At this moment, Su Mu listened to his father's explanation of the cause and effect, sighed and said: "Now that you know that the bodyguard is useful, you are really, just donate money and hide it, you have to help a big mouth." ”

Knowing that he was in trouble, Father Su replied: "He also has good intentions and wants to tell others that our family is good." ”

"The wealth is not exposed, but now that it is exposed, everyone knows that our family has money, how many people can I help if I donate all the money?

You take my mother and the old man to run quickly, go to Menlo Park to live for a while, I bought a house there, if you don't go back, don't go back, learn from Li Ping'an and his father, and make it clear that telling others that you are picking. ”

Su Mu was very unhappy, and added again, "You guys go to live elsewhere first, his children are short of money to do business, it's our family's, two million per mouth, or relatives I don't know, why do you care about this kind of person......"
