Chapter 381: Witness (Second Update, Ask for Recommendation Votes!)
Su Wenjin listened to Zhang Chen's words and began to think.
For Zhang Chen, it really doesn't matter.
While the saying "money is the same everywhere" isn't entirely true, there's no doubt that the best thing about having money is having more choices and more choices.
All other things being equal, people with more wealth will inevitably have more options and more trial and error than those with relatively little wealth.
Zhang Chen introduced the surrounding scenery to his parents along the way, and the husband and wife were both coming to the United States for the first time, and they were very curious to see everywhere. Zhang Guoqiang brought a Kodak camera, the kind that puts 135 rolls of film, a roll of film can take 36 to 38 photos, and after a while, more than 30 photos are full, and you need to change the film.
The car drove all the way to the Bay Area, and Zhang Chen naturally couldn't pick up his parents to Tang Miaomiao's villa, but spent $320,000 to buy a single-family villa with a small upper and lower floors and a garage nearby.
said that the area was not large, but the two-story villa with front and rear yards also shocked Su Wenjin and his wife.
Zhang Chen helped them carry their luggage into the house, went to the bathroom and washed his hands: "This is the Bay Area, that is, the Silicon Valley you read in the newspaper, which should be regarded as one of the richest places in the world and one of the most expensive places in the United States. â
"Here, the higher the average income of the residents, the better the security, because the higher the income, the more taxes are paid, so in order to protect taxpayers, this should be the best security area in the United States, and there is no need to worry too much about this. â
Su Wenjin was curious: "What about other places?"
Zhang Chen patiently explained: "The police here are supported by taxpayers, so where the tax is high, there will be more funds to recruit more police, so the public security will be agreed, if it is a poor area, there are few black areas in California, mainly Mexican and Hispanic settlements, and the security in these places is very bad due to insufficient funds." It's best not to go out at night, it's fine here in the Bay Area, but be careful if you go into the city. â
Zhang Guoqiang shook his head: "Capitalism." â
Zhang Chen smiled and didn't speak.
"Before you came, I had already cleaned up the house with a housekeeping company, and the bedding in the bedroom was brand new. Every Friday, someone from the housekeeping company comes to clean up the room, and I write you a description of the garbage classification, which is posted on the refrigerator, and you need to sort the garbage according to the prompt bar every day. If you don't understand, just pile the garbage aside and ask them to sort it when the housekeeper comes. â
After settling his parents down, Zhang Chen saw two missed calls on the phone, one was from the NVIDIA landline that Huang Renxun left for him at ten o'clock last night, Zhang Chen was at the party at the time and didn't hear it.
After the party, Zhang Chen called back the phone, but no one answered, and it is estimated that he has not come to the company.
The other is a phone answering message.
Zhang Chen called Huang Renxun back first, and when he heard Huang Renxun accept his conditions, although Zhang Chen did not show any joy in his tone, he was already overjoyed in his heart.
Zhang Chen told Huang Renxun that early tomorrow morning, he could go to the Tinder Source Company to negotiate the contract, and after the contract was signed, the first batch of two million US dollars of investment would arrive immediately.
In addition, Matrix will sign a purchase agreement with NVIDIA to purchase 500,000 chips within a year, and the first batch of 50,000 chips can be ordered now, requiring NVIDIA to complete the first batch of supplies by April.
Huang Renxun also put forward his own additional requirements to Zhang Chen, asking Huoyuan to come forward and guarantee its financial lease, and Nvidia leased a complete set of second-hand AMSL (Acemoore) 0.35Ξm lithography machines from Intel, which is currently worth $32 million.
After a night of consideration, Huang Renxun still thinks that David Kirk is right, and it is necessary to improve the manufacturing technology to 0.35 microns.
Intel has now confirmed that it will use a 0.micron manufacturing process on the upcoming Pentium II processor, and the previous equipment will be idle and will simply rent it out to Nvidia and make a fortune.
In fact, if Intel could sell it, it would have sold these outdated devices at a high price. But now, there are only a handful of CPU manufacturers in the world who have the strength to get involved in CPU chip manufacturing and can use equipment with such high precision, and they are basically in the United States.
Sell it to China, this thing is controlled by Batumi, and it is impossible, so you can only rot it in your hands, and now there is an Nvidia to take over, not to mention how happy you are.
Zhang Chen agreed to Huang Renxun's conditions, just a guarantee, he was sure that as long as riva128 was launched, Nvidia would definitely become a hot star company, and when the time came, they would be able to cramp their hands when they counted money, and this guarantee would not have any risk.
Hung up Huang Renxun's phone, Zhang Chen dialed his voicemail again, and there was a message in it, "Uh, zack, I'm Britney, Britney Spears, um... I'm really sorry for the trouble, well... Thank you. Well... Good bye. â
Britney seemed to have made a toll call at the airport, and Zhang Chen smiled from the bottom of his heart after listening to the phone answer.
Su Wenjin and Zhang Guoqiang both took a shower, and Zhang Guoqiang helped his wife take out a change of clothes from the luggage.
As soon as Su Wenjin finished changing his clothes, he saw Zhang Chen holding up the phone and showing an inexplicable smile.
Alas, the son grew up and began to have his own secrets.
Zhang Chen saw that his parents were almost settled, and the time was almost eleven o'clock, so he called Frank and Wu Tian to go to a Mexican restaurant in downtown San Francisco for dinner.
According to Su Wenjin's meaning, he still wants to eat Chinese food, but Chinese food is concentrated in Chinatown, and now the matter of shrimp boy has not really been finalized, and with his parents, Zhang Chen does not want to take any risks.
Now Benital has sent a group of 6 people to protect Zhang Chen's safety in the United States, and these people do not follow Zhang Chen, but provide services in the form of covert protection. For example, the two people sitting in the Corolla parked downstairs by Zhang Chen are Benital's professional bodyguards.
The reason why Zhang Chen chose a Mexican restaurant is also because Mexican cuisine has a strong taste, which is relatively suitable for the taste of northern Chinese people.
Sure enough, Su Wenjin was full of praise for eating, there are many tomatoes in Mexican food, and she likes tomatoes the most, although her pregnancy appetite is not very good, she still eats a lot.
"Mr. Zhou, you don't have to worry too much. Although the prosecution has filed a case in federal district court, it is difficult to convict you based on the current evidence. A middle-aged white man in a suit sat opposite Zhou Guoqiang, who was dressed in prison clothes, and said slowly.
Shrimp Boy nodded calmly, for him, squatting in prison is similar to going home, and there is no panic and fear of ordinary people going to prison at all.
"I'm innocent, Mr. Shripp, and I hope to be free as soon as possible." â
Lars Scripp is a barrister in criminal prosecution in the United States, who has practiced law for more than 20 years without a single record. In order to get away with the crime, Shrimp Boy spent a lot of money to invite him to defend himself.
The guard knocked on the door, "It's time." â
Larstreep stood up, bowed a little to the shrimp boy, said goodbye, and turned to leave.
Lars took his phone and other items from his assistant Fanny, who was waiting outside the door, which the lawyer could not bring in when meeting with the suspect.
Lars looked at Fanny's big trembling breasts, and asked casually, "Did anyone look for me just now?"
Lars' assistant Fanny, a recent law school graduate, is Lars' eighth assistant, and her previous assistants have accumulated a wealth of work experience before becoming lawyers.
Being able to learn something from Lars' side is an experience that money can't buy.
Fanny took out her notepad and walked over to Lars and pointed it to Lars, an action that allowed Lars to see the deep groove that her pair of plump squeezes out.
Lars swallowed and looked at Fanny's fingers, his face changing after a few seconds.
"The police want to provide new tainted witnesses?"
