Li Zetian was suddenly inspired, and continued: "By the way, there is also a suitcase, which can also be made into a smart suitcase and automatically follow the owner." The luggage compartment has a built-in camera detector and a Bluetooth module connected to the phone, and the two sensors work together to identify the owner, drive the wheels, and even automatically avoid obstacles!"

"If you take this suitcase out, it's definitely an eye-catcher!"

"It's not difficult to achieve this, and with Chronos Industries' artificial intelligence technology, it's easy to do it!"

"Okay, let's not talk about it, I'll go write the plan now!"

After Li Zetian finished speaking, he immediately ran upstairs to the study, opened the MacBook notebook, and typed on the keyboard crackling.

William smiled: "Dad is still resolute!"

Tina smiled: "Hehe, Dad can be the richest man in the world, if it is different from ordinary people, I can understand Dad's talent today!"

William said proudly: "Of course, my dad is the smartest genius in the world!"

Dongfang Yuqin smiled and said, "Okay, don't pat your father's ass, he can't boast about it, he will be proud when he praises!" By the way, William, have you noticed a company called Uber, your father suddenly mentioned it to me last night. ”

"Uber? haven't heard of it, but I'll send someone to check it out right away." William said.

Dongfang Yuqin reminded: "Your father is preparing to run for president of the United States in the second half of the year, so business matters will gradually be handed over to you, and you must always pay attention to industry trends, including some start-ups." You must know that giant companies are often defeated by some start-ups, and IBM and Motorola are living examples. ”

"Well, I see, I'll pay attention to it later!" William nodded earnestly.

In the study, Li Zetian quickly completed the planning of the Strollever stroller and smart suitcase, and then sent the document to the email address of the CEO of Chronos Industries.

What Dongfang Yuqin said before William's emergency, he immediately ordered someone to investigate Uber. Within ten minutes, investigators called him back.

“Mr· Hello Li, BER was founded in 2009 by Travis Kalanick, a dropout at the University of California, Los Angeles, and his friend Garrett Kemp. At present, a large group of super angel investors are interested in Uber and are negotiating with Uber. ”

"Okay, I got it. William said lightly, then hung up.

Uber App?

William was thoughtful, and then his eyes shot a glimmer of light.

"The taxi market is huge, and taxis are a big demand, so it's not hard to imagine that Uber has a lot ......of promise, so it's no wonder my dad mentioned Uber," William muttered.

"It's worthy of my dad, his vision is amazing!"

In addition, Truss Motors has been committed to the research and development of driverless technology. Perhaps, Uber's future drivers are artificial intelligence, and all they need is a car!"

William was very excited, and he wanted to buy Uber now.

He picked up the phone, dialed a number, and immediately ordered, "Buy Uber now!"

"Yes!"

……

Travis Kalanick, the founder of Uber, was confused, and just now, the umbrella company actually launched a takeover bid for Uber.

"Garrett Kemp, are you saying the other party is a prank?" said Travis Kalanick, a little incredulous.

Garrett Kemp looked up at the ceiling, he was also confused, the name of the umbrella company, no one knew who didn't know, how could such a big company look at Uber, Garrett Kemp didn't understand.

"There is their company's phone number on the official website of the umbrella company, let's call to make sure. Garrett Kemp thought for a moment and said.

"Yes, yes, make a phone call. Travis Kalanick was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately searched the official website of the umbrella company on his computer, then found the official website phone number and called it.

"Hello, I'm Travis Kalanick, CEO of Uber, and I wanted to ask, has your company made a takeover offer for our company?" asked Travis Kalanick cautiously.

"Oh, hello, Mr. Travis Kalanick, yes, that's right, we did make a takeover offer for your company. Tomorrow morning, Mr. Smith of Umbrella Corporation will come to your office to discuss specific matters with you. ”

"Oh, okay, I see, then I won't bother you!"

"It doesn't matter. ”

"Travis Kalanick, how's it going?!" Garrett Kemp asked hurriedly.

"It's true, Umbrella is really buying Uber!!" Travis Kalanick nodded excitedly.

The two of them were immediately excited.

The Umbrella Company's acquisition of Uber undoubtedly proves the value of Uber.

Even if the acquisition is not negotiated, Uber can use this incident to increase its value, and when negotiating with other venture capitalists, it has the confidence to shout: "Even the umbrella company wants to buy Uber, you must increase the price!"

That night, Travis Kalanick and Garrett Kemp were almost sleepless with excitement.

The next day, Smith, representing the umbrella company, came to Uber.

Travis Kalanick and Garrett Camp gave him a tour of the company and then invited him to the office.

Smith said straight to the point: "The umbrella company wants to buy Uber, you can make an offer." ”

Travis Kalanick and Garrett Kemp glanced at each other, and then Travis Kalanick said, "We know that the habit of umbrella acquisitions has always been to have an absolute 51% controlling stake. So, if Umbrella could invest $10 million in Uber, we'd be willing to sell 49 percent of the shares. ”

Smith laughed.

The smile made Travis Kalanick and Garrett Camp a little restless, and they felt that their conditions seemed to be a bit high.

"Uber was founded in 2009, from offline operation to online launch of the App, less than a year, coverage is only in San Francisco, Uber's valuation of nearly 20 million US dollars is a bit high? ”

"How about the Umbrella Company investing $10 million and you selling 60 percent of the shares?" Smith asked in a deep voice.

"Okay, we agree!" Travis Kalanick and Garrett Kemp looked at each other and nodded helplessly. The giant's interest in Uber is both a blessing and a misfortune. Luckily, Uber is going to grow quickly in the future, but unfortunately as the founder of the company, he doesn't own much of a stake.

Obviously, $10 million will not support Uber's rapid growth, and if it will raise funds again, then the shares of Travis Kalanick and Garrett Kemp, the company's founders, will be diluted again.

If it doesn't agree to the umbrella company's acquisition, then Uber will face a competitor that is impossible to defeat in the future.
