Chapter 5 Worth

Du Qiu has been exposed to C# since high school before crossing. NET, who is familiar with it, has been repeatedly pondering and refining the knowledge in his mind in his spare time after communicating with Bill Gates in Seattle in November, although he has not understood enough about the computer system in the 90s, and the details in his memory are too vague to really program, but he has thought through the general development ideas.

After returning to Cloud City, with the assistance of his laptop, Du Qiu's progress suddenly became faster, because of the C# reference materials stored in the hard disk and . The open source code of .NET not only fills in the missing details in memory, but also saves a lot of time, and the basic settings such as syntax and semantics can be directly copied and pasted after screening, so it only took 5 days to make a draft of architecture design and development of more than 100,000 words, and then emailed it to Chen Dayou, so that he could show it to Microsoft under the supervision of a lawyer.

Less than two hours after Chen Dayou received the email, he called and praised him unabashedly: "Du Qiu, you are not a superman at all, you are a super immortal......!

"Don't talk about these useless things, what about the bonus I want?"

"I've talked to Draper and Son about a super reward plan with a minimum of $2 million and a maximum of $20 million. ”

"Tell me more. ”

"Now several investment banks have valued our IPO between $2 billion and $2.5 billion, and we use it as a base of $2.5 billion, and if you get Microsoft, the IPO valuation will definitely rise, and for every $500 million, the board of directors will give you a reward of $5 million, up to $20 million, and if you don't get it, we will also give you $2 million in hardship fees. Chen Dayou smiled, and said in the tone of a cheap and obedient profiteer: "This kind of world-renowned project, even if it fails, it will have a lot of benefits for the company, and it can't treat you badly." ”

iView plans to be listed on the NASDAQ in April 1996, at this time it was the era of the rapid expansion of the Internet bubble, all kinds of messy shell companies as long as they publish a news related to the Internet, the stock price can rise a lot, Du Qiu felt that if Microsoft can really build iView in Windows 95, the IPO valuation should be more than 5 billion US dollars, or even more, so he said: "I made hundreds of millions of dollars for them, and the reward is only so little?" Not to mention that the base price is set so high, it is still capped, not authentic! 20 million is too little, change it to a cap of 50 million. ”

"Uncle Du, valuation is not profit, don't forget that you are the largest shareholder of iView, nearly half of the 20 million bonus is paid by yourself, why bother?

"It's true that the valuation is not a profit, but it can be cashed out, you let Draper and Son take care of it. ”

If the reward of 50 million is calculated, the IPO valuation will be 7 billion US dollars, and the investment of shareholders such as Draper and Son Masayoshi in November directly increased by 7 times, each earning hundreds of millions, and will not be stingy with tens of millions of bonuses, and these bonuses are distributed to them, which is only a few million, so Chen Dayou no longer persuaded and agreed: "I'll discuss it with them again." ”

"If Microsoft doesn't have a problem with my draft, let them send someone to Cloud City as soon as possible. ”

"Don't worry, I've booked my plane ticket to Seattle tonight. Chen Dayou was very active about this and inquired: "Bill-wagner, krzysztof-cwalina, brad-abrams...... Who are these people?"

"They are all senior technical experts at Microsoft, you just need to follow the list I gave. ”

"Look at your usual taciturn, I didn't expect to travel so extensively, only went to Seattle twice, and I made Microsoft clear, insidious enough!"

In fact, it is not that Du Qiu travels extensively, but that the books written by these people are stored in his laptop, such as "Effective C#", ". .NET Design Specifications" and so on, there are their profiles in the book, all of which are experts who have participated in the development of C# and .NET from the beginning.

Borrowing so many cattle people at once, it will allow Microsoft to take the initiative in future research and development, but there is no way, iView background is too shallow, Du Qiu can't find a talent that meets the requirements, so he can only make this decision, if you use an analogy, his current state, equivalent to a doctor of cars who studied abroad in the F1 team, rich in knowledge, well-informed, forward-looking, can design the world's top car models, but lack of practical work experience, and do not know enough about the automobile industry in their country (this time and space), and must find some local senior experts to cooperate, in order to turn the model into a product in a short time。

The experts borrowed from Microsoft are all generals, and Du Qiu also needs a handsome talent to assist, so he reminded Chen Dayou again: "You must also hurry up about Anders Hailsberg's affairs, otherwise I am afraid that I will be cut off by Microsoft." ”

"I've sent him several emails, but he hasn't responded to me. Chen Dayou was also distressed and said, "Why don't you send him an email too, in the eyes of programmers, your charm is much greater than mine." ”

"Well, I'll send an email to Anders and make an appointment for you, and then you bring your lawyer with you, show him the draft, and if he's interested, tell him that when version 1.0 is released, I'll leave the project and give him full responsibility. ”

"Are you sure?" Chen Dayou was inexplicably surprised, and after a few seconds of sluggishness, he said in a sincere tone: "Du Qiu, although I am not a technical expert, I can also see that this new language you designed is extremely awesome, once it is realized, it can definitely change the world and even go down in history, why make wedding dresses for others? Anders is powerful, but you are more powerful than him, it is not worth investing such a big capital, this is your brainchild!"

The brainchild of the cottage is like building a Portime, hard work is hard, but it is not worth cherishing......

And if you don't let go, you will definitely be overwhelmed by the maintenance and upgrading of this language in the future, so it is better to throw it out as soon as possible, leaving the world with a chic back of successful retirement......

"I don't have this programming language, and I can go down in history. Du Qiu pretended to be forced again, and told again: "Brother Chen, you can use this as a bargaining chip, if he is tempted, don't be stingy, try to meet the salary or something, Anders is worth a lot, don't lose big because of small things." ”

"When have I ever been stingy? Chen Dayou loves money, but he loves honor even more, and after a moment of envy, he said: "Du Qiu, you should come to Silicon Valley, it is more convenient to research and develop here, and there are more talents, if you are really reluctant to give up your father and your sister, take a holiday during the Spring Festival and go back to live for a few days." ”

Developing a new programming language requires a lot of laptops, and Du Qiu didn't dare to risk taking this thing to the United States, so he refused: "I have more important things than this in Cloud City, and I can't leave." ”

"Damn, don't you just want to take advantage of Microsoft's position to gain popularity in China, and then collude with officials and businessmen to make money?"

"It's good that you know. ”

After making this phone call, it means that the high-intensity work is over for the time being, and you can rest for a few days, but unfortunately people are inertial animals, and it is very uncomfortable to be busy for a long time, and it is also uncomfortable to be idle for a long time, Du Qiu was bored at home After watching TV for a while, he found that it was snowing outside, so he decided to go out to drive to enjoy the snow, and by the way, he picked up his mother from work - the company has many eyes, not suitable for using a laptop, he has been hiding at home for the past few days on the grounds of "sick recuperation", hiding at home and not going anywhere, a little suffocated.

Although he only went out for a while, Du Qiu still cautiously disassembled the laptop and put it into the safe hidden in the corner of the master bedroom and kitchen, and then went out with the car keys.

"Hey, Du Qiu, healed with a cold?"

"Much better. Brother Wang, did you just come back from the construction site?"

"Yes, the weather forecast says that there will be heavy snow today and tomorrow, so I went to the construction site to take a look, for fear of accidents. Wang Yong shook his hat sideways, then took two steps forward, and asked in a mysterious whisper, "Du Qiu, can I ask you about something?"

"What's the matter?"

"How long are you and your sister going to stay here?"

Du Qiu raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and asked rhetorically, "What's wrong?"

Wang Yong rubbed his hands, as if he didn't know how to speak, and after hesitating for a moment, he said with a smile: "Someone wants to buy my house, if you and your sister don't move out, I won't sell it, if you move out, I'll sell it, and then buy another house, and be neighbors with you." ”

Du Qiu realized this and asked, "How much is your house worth?"

Wang Yong raised a finger and said a little proudly: "The price is 1 million." ”

Yo, it's so expensive......

It's almost time to catch up with the price in 20 years......

At the beginning of the year, Wang Yong's 145-square-meter house could only be sold for more than 300,000 yuan, and now it is actually priced at 1 million, obviously the buyer is coming to Du Qiu.

However, it is no wonder that under the influence of the butterfly effect after the crossing, the lives of many people around Du Qiu have changed, especially those who are often in contact, such as Wang Yong, under Du Qiu's unintentional matchmaking, he and Lu Zijian of the Provincial Construction Investment Company have become friends, and they have participated in several major projects in a row, making a lot more money than last year.

Another example is Chen Xinmin, who lives on the 2nd floor, who was originally just an ordinary businessman who turned his compatible machine, because he established a good cooperative relationship with Snapdragon, and quickly developed into the largest wholesaler of compatible machines in Sanjiang Province, and even began to establish his own brand, and his revenue rose like a bucket.

There are also Lin Qinye who lives on the 4th floor, Ma Yumei who lives in Building 6 next door, and Boss Ma who lives in the bun shop at the door......

All in all, there are many people in the Jingui Garden Community because of the relationship between Du Qiu and Du Chunhua, or they have made money, or they have been promoted, or they have got the opportunity that they couldn't get before.

Wang Yong has nothing else wrong except for a little good wine, he is enthusiastic, does things safely, will make money and take care of his family, is very good to his wife and children, he has helped Du Chunhua a lot in the time and space before the time, Du Qiu has a good impression of him, and he and his daughter Wang Xiaoya are childhood sweethearts, so he does not hide it, and said: "Brother Wang, if you have another house to live in, this set will be sold after the Spring Festival." ”

"I knew I couldn't keep you here. Wang Yong got the letter, grinned, and asked, "Where are you going to move to, and when are you going to move out?"

"After graduating from kindergarten in June next year, I will move to the Lotus Garden Hotel for two years, which is a closed management and relatively quiet. Du Qiu smiled and promised: "After the community over there of the botanical garden is built, I will leave a set for Brother Wang, and I will be a neighbor when the time comes." ”

"Good!"
