Chapter 737: Influence

Li Yadong and the others returned to Boston the next afternoon, and their trip to New York was very fruitful.

The others are okay, happy and happy, but not crazy, only Li Yadong, if he hadn't deliberately suppressed it, I'm afraid he would have gone crazy a long time ago.

Not to mention a promising new material, and Yahoo and Cisco...... Especially Cisco, this is something Li Yadong really didn't expect earlier, and he didn't even dare to think about it.

Won 15.3% of Cisco's shares for $460 million and became the fourth largest shareholder of Cisco.

In just 20 years, the current 460 million may become 46 billion!

With such a terrifying rate of return, Rao is Li Yadong, and his whole little heart was pounding with fear.

This investment really gave him a taste of sweetness, and also made him interested in the field of venture capital.

After all, a person's time and energy are limited, and if he works his own, he can make three or two large-scale industries in a lifetime, but if he invests in others, it is completely different.

As long as your vision is good enough, the market is endless, and the whole world will open its arms for you.

He has a clearer plan for his future development.

At the same time, he is also full of expectations for the follow-up program of "Fortune 10 Billion".

After all, he has only finished recording the first episode, and God knows what surprises await him later?

After returning to Boston, Li Yadong began to get busy, before he had no roots in the United States, no industry, and seemed to have nothing to do, but now he has invested in three projects, with a capital scale of nearly 500 million US dollars, and everything needs to be taken care of.

Cisco, for example, sent a special invitation letter inviting him to inspect the company and participate in the regular shareholders' meeting.

And during Li Yadong's trip to Silicon Valley, the program "Fortune 10 Billion", which can be described as highly anticipated, finally met the audience on Columbia TV's evening prime time.

The unprecedented type of program instantly caught the attention of the people who eat melons, and for financial practitioners and heads of major enterprises, the investors' large spending of money also deeply shocked them.

Many people have always suspected that this show is just a show, and the so-called "10 billion dollars" is just a gimmick.

But after seeing that the investor spent $500 million on just one episode of the program, this suspicion was instantly shattered, and they all lamented the other party's wealth.

Some companies that were skeptical before, after seeing the three successful financing cases, especially Cisco's large-scale financing, could no longer bear it, and convened a board of directors to discuss how to divide up the remaining more than 9 billion US dollars.

As soon as the program was broadcast, it caused great repercussions in the American society, and major newspapers were overwhelmingly full of news about this program, which aroused heated discussions among the people.

In short, this show is completely popular.

And there are many things that are popular with it, such as the Dongfanghong Group that was born out of nowhere, the humorous host of Typhoon, Will, the hot Ms. Mira, and the extremely eye-catching sisters of the investment group...... and, the domineering president Li Yadong.

He is polite and willing to refer to other people's opinions, but he is also very assertive, and once he is optimistic, he is not swayed by other people's ideas at all, and his character of overriding public opinion has left a very deep impression on the audience.

's very young age, coupled with the handsomeness set off by the stars holding the moon, and the wealth that scared people to death, made Li Yadong, the domineering president, instantly topped the hot discussion list in the United States after the show was broadcast.

In ABC TV's famous talk show, the black performer made good use of this hot topic, he very skillfully teased Li Yadong, implying that he is a yellow race, and he is not tall and not handsome, and Ding Ding may be relatively small, asking how many women on the show are willing to date him, on the premise that they will not get half of each other's son.

And guess what?

Ninety percent of the women at the scene raised their hands.

From 60-year-old women to 18-year-old flowers.

Li Yadong became a bit of a eat-all-old for a while, and gained a large number of fans in the United States, mainly women.

Under such heated discussions and much attention, it is not easy for Li Yadong to keep a low profile.

During his inspection of Cisco in Silicon Valley, he was surrounded by a large number of reporters, and fans who did not know where to get the news and came to ask for autographs.

Mogridge said with a smile that Li Yadong's current fame in the United States is not even inferior to some Hollywood stars.

For these sudden attentions, Li Yadong chose to accept them calmly, which was what he expected.

However, he does not want fame, but influence.

When returning to Boston from Silicon Valley, at Logan International Airport, Li Yadong was blocked by a powerful reporter again.

But this time, he did not choose to avoid it, but stopped the obstruction of the bodyguards and calmly accepted the interview with reporters.

This made the reporters on the scene excited.

So far, no journalist has been able to break through the billionaire's defenses, and he has never expressed interest in being interviewed by the media.

You have to know that with his current fame and influence, any bit of news is extremely valuable, it's money!

"May I ask Mr. Li, after a trip to Silicon Valley, do you feel that the $460 million investment in Cisco is worth it?"

Faced with a beautiful female reporter's inquiry, Li Yadong smiled and nodded: "Of course, Cisco is a great company, they have unique technologies, and these technologies have an unparalleled role in promoting the development of the computer field, I am very optimistic about the development prospects of Cisco." ”

"Mr. Li, in the biography "Fortune 10 billion", Miss Dorne, the investment advisor at the round table, is it your girlfriend, is it true?" asked a bearded man, holding a microphone.

"Dorn, my girlfriend?" Li Yadong smiled dumbly, "Who did you listen to, why didn't I know?"

"Because there is reliable information that Miss Dorne is the general manager of the investor of the "Fortune 10 Billion" program, and some media have disclosed part of Miss Dorne's information two days ago, she is just a student at Harvard University, if there is no special relationship, how can you give her such an important job?"

Li Yadong shook his head with a smile and quipped, "That's good, I know that through the "Fortune 10 Billion" program, Dorne is loved by many men, so these male compatriots who are interested in Dorne, you can pursue her, just when I don't exist." ”

"Haha......" Li Yadong's witty words made everyone at the scene laugh.

It is clear that the rumors are false.

"Mr. Li, you just came back from Silicon Valley, can you disclose your next itinerary, through the "Fortune 10 billion" program, you have accumulated a large number of fans, and many fans want to meet you. ”

Li Yadong glanced at the reporter, it was a chubby girl, and she really wanted to rush over and kiss her.

He's been waiting, waiting for an opportunity, and now it's here.

"What's next...... I was supposed to be in Boston for a while, not too far away, because there was a very important matter to deal with. ”

"Oh?"

Li Yadong's words immediately attracted the attention of all reporters at the scene, and everyone realized that there may be big news to be excavated.

"May I ask Mr. Li, what is the important matter?"

"yes, can you talk about it?"

"Well...... There's nothing inconvenient about it. Li Yadong smiled and said, "It's about a friend's lawsuit, a year ago, he was seriously injured, and he is still lying in a coma in the hospital, the criminal absconded after the crime, but now he has been caught, I am assisting my friend's parents to appeal, the court has now accepted it, and the trial will be held soon." ”

Sure enough, there is big news!

The eyes of all the journalists lit up.

Someone dared to beat a billionaire's friend to a serious injury, and it seemed to be a vegetative person, which is big news.

"Mr. Li, may I ask if that unfortunate friend of yours is also a wealthy businessman?"

"Mr. Li, is your friend Chinese or American?"

"Mr. Li, can you tell us about the court time?"

"Mr. Lee......"

The reporters kept asking questions, and to everyone's surprise, Li Yadong seemed to have changed his mind all of a sudden, became extremely patient, and took the trouble to answer their questions one by one.

This also made the reporters at the scene more and more aware of the situation of Guo Qi's case.

It is not difficult to imagine that with Li Yadong's current popularity, after these reporters go back, I am afraid that this big news will soon spread to the entire United States and become known to everyone.
