044 Netscape is beckoning (Recommended tickets for the upcoming new day)
In the end, under the witness of Yang Zhiyuan, David and others, after Zach nodded and signaled that the contract was fine, he signed his name and Zack's name.
In the end, Li Feng borrowed 50 million US dollars from Sequoia Capital with 14% of Yahoo shares, with a repayment period of one year and an annual interest rate of 20%, that is, 60 million repayment with interest. Of course, the contract states that it is a return on investment, after all, it is really a loan treaty, and then it becomes a loan shark.
As for why Zack's name has to be signed, after all, Zack is still Li Feng's guardian in name, and the signature of a minor requires the confirmation of the guardian.
I have to say that Lao Mei's efficiency is still very high, and after signing the agreement, Valentine signaled the company's financial department to transfer money to Li Feng's account in Citibank.
A few minutes later, I received a call from Citibank's Los Angeles branch claiming to be an account manager for Billy Chang. even asked if he needed special financial services, etc., after all, Li Feng's account suddenly came in 50 million US dollars, which was not a small amount in 95 years, especially when Li Feng was only 15 years old.
According to the account manager, he has become a VIP customer, and he is Li Feng's personal banking customer service.
......
As for the accounts are Li Feng's own, Lao Mei is good, even if he is a minor, he can still open a bank account and apply for a bank card.
At the same time, Lao Mei's bank account and bank card are not the same concept, unlike our big China bank card and bank account, it is easy to apply for a bank account at the same time, as long as you take your own social security card, you can handle it directly.
As long as Lao Mei is born in the hospital, she has a special identity number - social security card number, which is equivalent to Huaxia's social security card number, which is regarded as identity proof.
Originally, when it was first picked up, the orphanage wanted to find Li Feng's parents' information through the hospital, but it didn't look around in Los Angeles.
It is even inferred that Li Feng's mother may not have given birth in the hospital, and may even have thrown Li Feng into an orphanage after giving birth directly at home.
Therefore, there was no social security card, and in the end, the people from the orphanage helped Li Feng reapply for his birth certificate and receive a social security card number, which prevented Li Feng from becoming a black household.
......
Fortunately, this is not bad in the United States, as long as you are born in the United States, you will automatically get citizenship, regardless of whether your parents are black or whatever.
In previous lives, it was often said that many parents who were to give birth were smuggled to the United States to give birth, and then their children automatically obtained the news of American imperial citizenship.
At the same time, Lao Mei does not have a variety of household registration systems, and where you want to live is a resident.
For example, if you live in New York, you are a resident of New York, and if you are bored of living in New York and want to change the environment to live in Los Angeles, then you will be a resident of Los Angeles, which is very convenient.
A driver's license is an ID card, basically everyone has a driver's license, as long as they are over 16 years old, they can get it.
Of course, if there are special circumstances such as people with disabilities who cannot drive, they can also apply for a special ID card.
......
Not mentioning the issue of household registration, Li Feng was very happy to be able to borrow money successfully, and immediately after greeting Yang Zhiyuan and others, he was ready to be led by Valentine and go to Netscape to see it together.
As for Yang Zhiyuan and David, they said that there was nothing to do, so they went back to Yahoo directly, and they were not interested in Netscape shares.
After all, they can't be busy with Yahoo's affairs, and the two of them are not as crazy as Li Feng, taking Yahoo shares as collateral, after all, the company operators of the two are not like Li Feng is an investor, and the nature is different.
After that, Valentine, Michael Moretz and Li Feng in Sequoia Capital went to Netscape together.
......
To be honest, when Valentine listened to Li Feng's previous statement, he also had a hint of the idea of buying Netscape shares, if he could really follow Li Feng's statement, it would be several times the profit, so he had to be moved.
As for whether Netscape can go according to Li Feng's vision, no one knows, after all, it has not been listed yet.
However, Valentine is still a little confident in Li Feng's business vision, after all, he was the first to invest in Yahoo, and he also proposed Yahoo's profit model.
And for Li Feng, whether it is Valentine or Michael Moretz, they are full of goodwill and curiosity, it is not that the prodigy has never seen it, but it is difficult to see a mature character like Li Feng.
Subsequently, a few people chatted in the car for a while, and soon arrived at Netscape, after all, Silicon Valley is so big.
......
As Li Feng and the others got out of the car, they saw Duerjohn walking out with a group of people, Li Feng also knew that this group of people was mainly here to greet Don Valentine, after all, with his status in Silicon Valley, it was indeed worth coming out to greet Netscape.
After the two sides exchanged greetings and introductions, Li Feng finally understood the situation, good guys, in addition to Dull John, the two co-founders of Netscape, Mark Anderson and Jim Clark, as well as Morgan Stanley's representatives.
Not to mention the KPCB and Morgan Stanley, which are represented by Dürjohn, they are definitely the bigwigs in the capital market.
Mark Anderson is the developer of Netscape, a technology expert, and later became one of the well-known venture capitalists in Silicon Valley, and many companies in later generations have his shares, such as FB, Werther, etc., have become shareholders and directors of the company's board of directors.
Jim Clark is also a legend in Silicon Valley, and later generations commented that he founded three companies, each with a market value of more than $1 billion, which is unique in Silicon Valley.
Seeing everyone laughing and walking into Netscape, Li Feng couldn't help but feel in his heart, in his previous life, these characters could only be understood on the computer screen, but now they are standing in front of him, and they are still the most awesome characters in rebirth.
......
Li Feng has a general understanding of the history of Netscape, starting from the listing, the stock price has been soaring, and then it didn't take long for Microsoft to take action and launch its own browser, and then Netscape's stock price began to fall.
Since then, a browser war has started between Netscape and Microsoft. In the end, Netscape ended in failure, and in 98, Netscape was acquired by AOL, and Netscape ended its short-lived glory.
Therefore, this time Li Feng saw it, and after Netscape was listed, he would stare at Microsoft, and when Microsoft was going to launch the IE browser, he would sell Netscape shares in advance, and the plan to speculate on Netscape would be successfully completed.
This is Li Feng's plan from the beginning of the planning of Netscape, to put it bluntly, he hopes to complete the accumulation of initial capital through Netscape circle money.
After all, it's been too long for Yahoo, and the peak of Yahoo's stock price will not be until the dot-com bubble bursts, and there are still years to go.
And in the past few years, there are too many opportunities, as long as you seize 1 time, you will definitely be on the Forbes rich list in the future; if you catch 2 times, it is estimated that the top 10 will basically be stable, if you catch more than 3 times, then you have to find ways to hide your wealth as much as possible.
After all, there may be too much money at that time, and too much money will be too ostentatious on the surface.
.....
As everyone sat down in the conference room, Li Feng looked around the conference room and was full of expectations for the next conversation.
