Su Zhuorui suddenly said, "What you said in the morning is false?"

Zhang Chen wiped his mouth, "It's not fake, the profit model is of course important in the Internet industry, but this is a later thing." In the early stage of starting a business, it is good to have a clear profit model, but if you can't find it at the beginning, it is not a problem. The most important thing is to make the user bigger, once the user is grasped, sometimes the profit model will naturally exist. Just because you didn't have it at the beginning doesn't mean you won't have it in the future. “

Su Zhuorui pouted: "Then what if I can't find it all the time?"

Zhang Chen thought for a while, "Having enough users is a profit model in itself, but it's hard to explain it to you. ”

Su Zhuorui thought for a moment, holding a fork and flicking the food on the plate.

Zhang Chen suddenly thought of something, "By the way, Sister Su, do you have any familiar lawyers?"

Su Zhuorui raised her head with wide eyes, "Yes, I studied for a PhD in Political Science at UCB, took some law school courses, and sometimes I would attend some parties with them. ”

Zhang Chen asked again: "Is there anything you are familiar with in equity investment? I need to find a lawyer to help me draft an agreement for this ICQ I invested. “

Su Zhuorui thought for a while, "In terms of mergers and acquisitions, the best law firm in the United States is Wachtell-Lipton-Rosen-&-Katz, a senior brother from the law school is doing it here now, and I went back to the school some time ago to do a practical training class, and we left each other's contact information, but we can get in touch." But the fees of this law firm are very expensive, and the target amount of your investment is too small to be worth it. “

Zhang Chen clapped, "Just look for them, Sister Su, you can help me contact your senior brother, and it is best to let him come to San Francisco as soon as possible." “

Su Zhuorui nodded: "Okay, I'll try." “

After eating, I slipped to the Lombard Street. Now is the most beautiful time for Joquhua Street, Zhang Chen subconsciously wanted to take a picture with his mobile phone, but he remembered that there was no photo function when he took out his mobile phone.

The next day, Zhang Chen took Barbara's letter of recommendation and took a bus to Stanford.

Although the Bay Area, where Stanford is located, is only forty or fifty kilometers away from downtown San Francisco, it seems that the climate is much better than that of the urban area.

When Zhang Chen set off from the city in the morning, there was still a hazy mist, but when he arrived in the Bay Area, the air seemed to be a little drier.

Zhang Chen found the registration point for the summer course according to the map, filled out the corresponding forms and submitted letters of recommendation according to the requirements of the volunteers. The volunteer told Zhang Chen to leave his contact information, preferably by e-mail, and there will be a reply email within three days to notify whether the application is approved, and then pay the fee after approval.

Zhang Chen nodded, left the registration point, and began to walk around the entire Stanford campus.

The whole of Stanford is like a big botanical garden, with very high vegetation coverage. At the same time, the tallest building on campus is the Hoover Pagoda, which is known as a Stanford landmark.

The Hoover Pagoda was built by Stanford to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the founding of the school, and at the same time, it was named Hoover Pagoda to commemorate the great contribution made by the then President of the United States Hoover to the school.

Zhang Chen walked around the Hofo Pagoda and found that the Hoover Pagoda was not tall, at least much shorter than the skyscrapers that were more than 300 meters tall. Zhang Chen took a look at the introduction on the nameplate, and sure enough, the tower was 285 feet high, which was about 87 meters high.

Huh, how did you convert between imperial and metric so quickly? It seems that your IQ has really improved. Zhang Chen was secretly overjoyed.

Climbing the Hoover Pagoda and overlooking the entire Stanford campus, Zhang Chen had a dreamlike feeling.

In his previous life, when Zhang Chen came to the United States on a business trip, he also came to visit Stanford, but his mood was completely different from now.

In his previous life, he came to this campus with an almost pilgrimage attitude. In this life, he can not only make himself belong here, but also make this place belong to himself!

Zhang Chen came to the computer room of the College of Arts and Sciences and logged on to Stanford's on-campus network.

Zhang Chen thought about it and typed Larry-Page to search, but there was no result.

Touching his chin, Zhang Chen said in his heart, isn't Larry Page still enrolled? No, Google came out in 98, and he and Sergey Brin should have been at Stanford anyway.

Zhang Chen typed Sergi-brin again, and immediately popped up Brin's public information.

After Zhang Chen found out Brin's address and contact information, he found a piece of paper and wrote it down. Zhang Chen thought about it, and didn't go to these two people for the time being. On the one hand, Google wasn't founded until mid-ninety-eight. In other words, it is possible that these two people have not finished writing the specific search algorithm, and it is even possible that they have not even had the idea of doing a search.

On the other hand, both Larry Page and Sergey Brin are technical geniuses with strong personalities. If you want to contact them, just the silver bullet offensive can't successfully achieve your goals, and you must get the other party to agree in some technical aspects in order to really gain the other party's approval.

Stanford's reply will not reach Zhang Chen's mailbox until two days later, and these two days have become a rare leisure time for Zhang Chen after coming to the United States. For a while, Zhang Chen didn't know what to do.

Although it is easy to travel between the city and the Bay Area, it is still a little more than an hour's drive. Therefore, Zhang Chen did not plan to go back to the city, but planned to take a stroll in the Bay Area in the past two days.

After going around the entire Stanford campus, Zhang Chen felt a little thirsty, looked at the time, and felt a little hungry. Zhang Chen found a small bar in Palo Alto, behind Stanford. Although he can't drink alcohol under the age of 21, it's okay to have a drink.

Pushing open the bar door, Mr. Zhang saw someone throwing a birthday party next to a wall covered with the cover of an old Sports Illustrated. In the middle of the room, a group of men in their early 50s sit around a round table with a copper nameplate engraved with the words "Coach's Corner" as they clink glasses and munch on pizza.

"Give me a non-alcoholic mojito and ask for the kind of pizza they ate. Zhang Chen pointed to the pizza eaten by the old guys and said to the bar waiter.

The waiter glanced at Zhang Chen and said politely, "Okay." Then he said a few words to the kitchen window behind him, and asked Zhang Chen for $12, and Zhang Chen also politely gave a tip of $2.

"Hey, Bill, have you heard? There's something interesting lately. An Asian kid went crazy trying to make money and made a website with only grids, selling $100 per grid. And this website is made up of 10,000 grids, and he says he wants to become a millionaire by selling grids. Ha ha. An old man who looked to be in his early fifties, somewhat Italian, smiled at his companion beside him.
