Chapter 209: Good character

You never know what you're going to do next, just as you don't know what you're going to do. It's as if Lin Fan is now choosing to sit leisurely in a café and drink coffee, to be precise, he is killing time.

Lin Fan originally came to talk about cooperation with CAA, but suddenly remembered Ovitz, which changed Lin Fan's plan, he has always wanted to create an independent brokerage company in Huaxia, and he also wants to become the behind-the-scenes controller of the domestic entertainment industry, and Ovitz can undoubtedly make his dream come true, after all, Ovitz is not only a super agent, but also a good manager and negotiator.

The meeting with Ovitz was his whim, but Lin Fan was confident that Ovitz would be tempted, in fact, when Ovitz came to meet Lin Fan, he had the bottom. Therefore, Lin Fan will not go to the CAA again, as long as Ovitz agrees to Lin Fan's invitation, this will be a test for Ovitz.

Lin Fan found that he was more and more able to calm down, he didn't go to Hollywood, which was close at hand, and his curiosity disappeared as he became more and more mature, and this means that Lin Fan was indeed mature, but the loss of curiosity meant that Lin Fan was not interesting, but Lin Fan was very interesting, and life was always full of paradoxes.

If there is no accident this morning, Lin Fan will spend it in the waste, and as expected, Lin Fan will spend the next few days like this, he will give Ovitz time to think, and then give his own fatal blow.

But a phone call disrupted Lin Fan's plans, and a day later, it was still this café, using the adjective 'this', which meant that it was not a famous café, but something of great significance to future generations was about to happen here.

The pattern on the fancy coffee was already a little scattered, because Lin Fan's right hand was tapping on the table, which meant that Lin Fan's heart was not as calm as his face, and as the familiar person walked in, Lin Fan instantly regained his calm.

"A cup of Americano, thank you. ”

"Maybe I should invite you to Starbucks for coffee. ”

"I drink Starbucks instant coffee a lot. ”

The two of them immediately laughed, and Lin Fan smiled, "I didn't expect Andy to take the initiative to call me, you are the second friend I came to the United States to meet." ”

The person who came was Andy Rubin, the father of Android, and the two had a relationship downstairs at Apple, but they didn't expect that Andy Rubin would take the initiative to call yesterday, even if there was nothing on the phone, but Lin Fan believed that nothing would go to the Three Treasures Palace.

"I think the first friend would have been Taylor Swift. Andy has a look that I understand, and his flirtatious eyes are very attractive, like an old friend joking, which is the tactfulness and communication skills that Andy learned after a year of career as a company manager.

"It's not an unusual thing, and the whole country knows that Taylor and I are good friends. ”

Andy likes Lin Fan's boldness, and even the little show-off in this does not make him a little disgusted, but makes him feel cool. "What a wonderful thing it would be if one day my name could be known to the whole of America. ”

"I don't think that day is far off. ”

"Oh?"

Lin Fan pretended to be flat and said, "The last time you talked to me about the Android operating system, I think it will be the best invention in the next ten or even twenty years, and you will be known to the world by virtue of him." ”

Andy had a look of surprise on his face, "To be honest, Lin, I don't have that much confidence in myself. However, this is naturally a scene, any realization of science and technology, behind the sweat of engineers and financial support, Andy Rubin has no money, this is no longer a 100,200,000 thing that can be solved, he needs a large amount of money to invest.

And among the people he knows, only Lin Fan seems to meet this qualification, after all, not long ago, Lin Fan's deeds were rumored throughout Silicon Valley, and the last time he met Lin Fan, he was full of interest in this operating system. So yesterday he made a phone call and flew in from San Francisco.

Lin Fan should really be grateful for the hype he made, Andy Rubin really knew Lin Fan because of this, so did Ovitz, and many other people also knew Lin Fan because of this.

"I prefer your confident attitude that day. ”

Andy was secretly pleased with Lin Fan's attitude, which gave him a feeling that something big could be done, but he didn't know that the two of them were Zhou Yu beating Huang Gai, one was willing to fight and the other was willing to suffer, "I have encountered some difficulties, and the follow-up R&D funds have not been able to keep up." ”

Although Lin Fan's heart was already ready to move, Feng Qingyun said lightly, "If the funding gap is not big, I can help a little." ”

"I'm willing to sell 40/40 of the company's shares for $8 million. ”

Seeing that Lin Fan's face showed a hint of concern, Andy hurriedly explained, "Although the Android system has not yet been born, I believe that as long as the funds are in place, the effect will be seen soon, and Android will soon be worth this price, and I am by no means talking about it." ”

Lin Fan naturally knows that Android has not achieved much now, otherwise the venture capital that smells of it will have come to the door a long time ago, but Lin Fan knows that the real development of Android is completed after being acquired by Google, and Google invested a lot of engineers and many resources to complete the research and development for several months. However, Lin Fan just wanted to show that he was not very interested in Android, and he was not very optimistic, so as not to make Andy Lion open his mouth.

"I'm willing to pay for my vision and dreams, and I'm really optimistic about the future of Android, where smartphones will definitely replace computers, but I hope you can convince me with facts instead of letting my money go down the drain. This is a beating, Andy and Lin Fan both understand, but Andy still has a trace of fear in his heart, just because he is optimistic, he is willing to spend eight million dollars, which shocks him.

However, this did not affect the joy of the two of them in finalizing the cooperation, Andy didn't even expect that he could convince Lin Fan so quickly, and the two coffee cups collided in the air and turned into a cheers.

Lin Fan was a little curious, "Andy, I don't understand why you asked me to be your investor, after all, this is a great invention." This is Lin Fan's desire to probe the bottom and see if Android has attracted Google's attention, after all, Android will be acquired by Google in the future and then develop a real Android system.

However, Andy was a little embarrassed, he couldn't say that no one valued his hard work, he came to Lin Fan purely with the mentality of giving it a try, who knew that the blind cat had met a dead mouse.

If Andy used to be an engineer, he might not know how to deal with it, but now Andy can say with great sincerity: "On the one hand, because of our common goal, smartphones will definitely replace computers." On the other hand, it is because of Lin yourself, although I have only met once, my intuition tells me that you are a person with good character and trustworthy. ”

Lin Fan was dumbfounded, looking at Andy with a sincere face, the temptation just now was forgotten by him, and he even had some self-doubt, could it be that my character is really good?
