"Xuan Shao, are you sure you really come to San Francisco for the first time?" Liang Ning, who was sitting in the driver's seat, asked Li Xuan curiously while driving, he was the only one among several people who had applied for an international driver's license.

"Of course, this is my first time in the United States, and it is also my first time leaving Hong Kong!" Li Xuan said with certainty.

"Why do I feel like Li has lived here for many years, just like just now, how do you know that it is best to stand in that position to take pictures?" Liang Ning asked suspiciously.

They had just gone to the Golden Gate Bridge to play, and they were going to take a commemorative photo before leaving. As a result, Li Xuan stood leisurely in front of the best spot.

Li Xuan's eyes flickered a little, and he unconsciously touched his nose, this was his habitual little action before telling a lie, and it was estimated that he didn't even notice it.

"There is an American student in the dormitory next door to my university, he happens to be from San Francisco, I asked him a lot of questions before I came to the United States, and your boss and I have done enough preparation before going out. ”

Li Xuan couldn't tell him that he had indeed lived in the United States for six or seven years in his previous life, and he had accompanied his old domestic classmates who had traveled to the United States on the Golden Gate Bridge several times. Returning to the city again, the familiarity made him unconsciously show some of his feet.

"Did your friend go back to the United States for Christmas, call out for dinner together!" Liang Ning didn't open any pot and mentioned which pot, what your boss said was all nonsense.

"Well, he didn't go back to San Francisco, he took advantage of the vacation to travel to Tokyo, and it was said that he was going to see the custom shops there!" Li Xuan could only use a new lie to round out a lie.

"Hehe, it seems that the Yankee is also a man of lust, doesn't he go to Balan Street in Hong Kong? In fact, the custom shops in Shinjuku are just like that, and they are not as good as some night clubs in Hong Kong!" Liang Ning said with a sneer.

Li Xuan didn't answer, he twisted his head out the window. The car was speeding south on National Highway 101, and Li Xuan in his previous life drove on this traffic artery connecting Silicon Valley and San Francisco. Although he traveled back in time to thirty years ago, he still had a familiar sense of familiarity.

Mountain View's most famous company is Silicon Valley, the standard-bearer of the 21st-century Internet era just off National Highway 101. Of course, that should be twenty years later.

Li Xuan, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looked through the front glass to the left side of the road, and the Google headquarters in his memory was not far in front, with his back to the San Francisco Bay on the left, and there were several large car dealerships nearby.

But now, it's still a lush barren forest. In his previous life, Li Xuan had several friends who worked in Silicon Valley, and he visited Google's headquarters more than once. A large proportion of the more than 20,000 employees at Google's headquarters are ethnic Chinese.

So much so that there is a joke that if you want to go to Google and you are stopped by the doorman, you tell him that he is here to find a friend. The doorman asks you who you're looking for, and you can name Mike Lee, Jack Chen, Tom Wang. Because Google has countless Mike Lee, Jack Chan, and Tom Wang.

A group of people finally returned to the business hotel where they stayed, and as soon as Li Xuan entered the door, the blonde white lady at the front desk politely stopped him: "Good afternoon, Mr. Li, a Mr. Cousins is coming to you!"

She smiled and gestured behind Li Xuan's back. Li Xuan turned around and found a middle-aged white man in a black suit with a full beard walking towards him with a smile.

"Are you Mr. Xuan Lee? Welcome to California, I'm the general manager of Cousins Entertainment, Tony Cousins, you can call me Tony!" Cousins pronounced Li Xuan's name a little strangely.

"Hello Mr. Cousins, I'm Xuan Lee, you can call me Vincent!" Li Xuan politely shook his hand.

Liang Ning said that this Mr. Cousins was condescending, but it was obvious that Li Xuan only felt the compliment in the back. The two made an appointment to meet at three o'clock in the afternoon, and he came to the hotel an hour early to wait.

Li Xuan didn't go back to his room at all, but directly invited Mr. Cousins to the hotel's restaurant for a cup of coffee.

"Tony, I'm sorry, our company is only going to sell the arcade machines we produce, and we have no plans to license the game to others for the time being!" Li Xuan smiled and rejected the other party's offer.

"Vincent, how big is your factory in Hong Kong? In my opinion, the potential of the two games is very high, and their excellent methods are good enough to crush the previous space invaders.

If your factory is too small, it will definitely not be able to meet the needs of the American market. In my professional eye, these two new arcade machines will sell at least 200,000 units!

If not, why don't you license the game to Cousins Entertainment, and I'll be sure to give you a satisfactory price so that you can maximize your profits!" Cousins continued undeterred.

"How much license fee are you going to give?" Li Xuan took a sip of coffee and said undeniably.

Cousins heard that Li Xuan seemed to be relieved, and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes: "Our company pays you five hundred dollars for every arcade machine produced, which is the highest price I can give, what do you think?"

Li Xuan showed a sneering smile, shook his head and said, "Mr. Cousins, it seems that your sincerity is not very great! The licensing fee for each arcade machine is 1,200 US dollars, if you can accept it, we can sign a licensing contract!"

"Impossible! This is outrageous, no one in the whole of America will accept this price!" Cousins listened to Li Xuan's offer, and the tone suddenly became higher, and there was a bit of anger in his voice, making everyone else in the restaurant look at this side with different eyes.

Cousins immediately realized that he was a little out of shape, picked up the coffee cup and poured a sip of coffee into his mouth, but his eyes were fixed on Li Xuan.

"So, let's talk about arcade agents! Tank battles cost $1,800 each, and Hong Kong squares cost $1,200!" Li Xuan gave his own offer.

"Vincent, this price is outrageous, you're grabbing money!" Cousins said with a displeased face, "Space Invaders are only a thousand dollars each!"

"But as you said before, it's normal for my new game to crush it, and it's normal for it to be a little more expensive than it! Can you guess that after playing my tank battle and Hong Kong square, young people in the United States are still willing to play such a crude game as the space invaders? Maybe at that time, the price of Taidong Company will be reduced to 800 US dollars a unit, and you may not be willing to sell it!"

Li Xuan has long known that the space invaders craze is rapidly fading, and gamers in the United States need new, more fun games to rekindle the enthusiasm.

"Tony, you can go back and think about it first! My energy in the next few days will also be focused on the upcoming Western Electronics Show, and the price difference between us can continue to negotiate after the exhibition is over!"

Li Xuan ended the negotiation with a smile. He is not in a hurry at all, he has a good game in hand, and now the initiative in the negotiations is completely on his side.

"Abominable yellow-skinned monkey!" Cousins cursed inwardly as he walked out of the hotel turnstile.

He just wanted to take advantage of the opening of the Western Electronic Show to get the two games, but his attempt was unsuccessful. With the excellent performance of these two games, they can easily capture the hearts of those arcade fans, and once they participate in the Western Electronics Show, they will shine.

At that time, Cousins will face the competition of a group of hungry wolves, White, the pot-bellied White, and Davis, the redneck in Texas, thinking of those vulture-like guys, Cousins's heart is a little heavier.
