Chapter 158: Butterfly's Wings (3)

DENA (South Pasadena) is located in the southern part of California, USA, in the northeast suburbs of Los Angeles, and is a community city in Los Angeles County, California, USA. It is surrounded by mountains in the north, with beautiful scenery, spring all year round, and sunshine almost all year round. Numerous artists' studios, galleries, exhibition halls, and museums are scattered throughout the city. Another important feature of the area is that there are many Chinese communities in the vicinity to the south, with a large number of Chinese supermarkets and restaurants.

Of course, the most important thing is that Pasadena has the world's top university, the California Institute of Technology, which is the school where Lee's fourth brother attended. Li Jiaming's favorite house is not far from the California Institute of Technology, a little more than four kilometers away.

It's a small, three-story country cottage with a pool, garden, and built in an upscale neighborhood in South Pasadena, where the neighbors are high-ranking white-collar workers or college faculty. Fortunately, it was bought for a Caltech doctoral student like the fourth brother, otherwise the residents' committee would not have agreed to buy it from a wealthy Chinese businessman like Li Jiaming, what the hell is going on?

This house is good, but it is a bit expensive, and it depends on Sun Huizhi, who Li Jiaming wants to help, to get a toothache. She wanted to borrow $500,000 and begged for a long time to no avail, so she was willing to spend 10,000 dollars to buy a house and give it away.

"It's not expensive, buying a house is a lifelong thing, the scenery here is good, the environment is good, and the house is the most suitable." ”

Stupid pig, do you really treat Zhao Wei as your wife? The angry Sun Hui glanced in the direction of Hollywood and mocked: "Brother, don't you want to buy a golden house?"

Do you really think that Lao Tzu's money is blown by the wind?

Li Jiaming pretended not to hear the mockery in his words, looked in the direction of Caltech, and said leisurely: "For my fourth brother, Qiao Qiao is one year older than him, and he is twenty-six this year, when will he have to make money to buy a house?"

What? A $1.2 million house is just given to my cousin? Cousin, hey, it's not my own brother! Sun Hui looked at Li Jiaming incredulously, and only after a while did she say with mixed emotions: "Brother, you're not joking, are you?"

What is this? If the fourth brother can be as dazzling as in his previous life, let alone 1.2 million, it is 12 million, and Li Jiaming is willing to spend it. To be able to produce a world-class scientist, for his family, it is a reputation and face that cannot be bought by spending no amount of money!

Forty years ago, there were no seven people in the family at one time, and the grieving grandfather swore to God that he must provide a scholar to come out. Later, the second aunt was forcibly aborted her only son because of family planning, and the second uncle was imprisoned for more than half a month in a fight with the people of the township government, and he was only willing to release him after a fine of 5,000 yuan. ……

The past is still in front of us. Now that there are so many scholars in the family, the real outstanding is the fourth brother, and he is the one who is most expected to glorify his ancestors, how can he be distracted by the trivial matters of life?

Li Jiaming and the other American assistant Marissa nodded, signed a check for the real estate agent, and after paying the money, he sat on the steps in front of the house, looked at the picturesque scenery in the distance, and quipped: "If you are a little promising, and you are going to come to the United States to study for a master's degree or a doctorate, I will also give you a building! Money is a thing, life is not brought to death, as long as it is spent on business, I am happy to have more money." ”

This was said arrogantly, but the smart Sun Hui immediately guessed something, and whispered: "Brother, brother-in-law, that vice chairman of sohu is just a name, right? Don't think I don't know, he started selling winter bamboo shoots with you, and it is impossible to have more money than you." In your original situation, only you dare to make that kind of determination!"

This is not difficult to guess, as long as you are a person with a heart, you can deduce it with a little investigation. These two girls rely on themselves, and they probably guessed it, so they wanted to get cheap and fight the autumn breeze in their own place.

"What do you want to say?"

Li Jiaming really looked away, Sun Hui has the perverse character of an official eunuch, but she does treat him as her own brother. No matter how rich and righteous they are, not many people can borrow millions of people just by virtue of a classmate.

"Brother, don't think I'm too talkative, at your level, there are some things that you have to plan for in advance. ”

What do you mean? Li Jiaming said suspiciously: "What do you want to say?"

"Brother, floating life is like a dream. ”

spoke halfway, but Li Jiaming knew what she meant very well, because the latter sentence was 'true when it is false, it is also true', which is to remind yourself not to fall too deep into the relationship between men and women.

Li Jiaming really didn't think wrong, the entertainment industry is too chaotic, and there are almost no self-cleanliness. With the successful listing of SOHU, a large number of web portals will definitely emerge in China, forming fierce competition. The competition in the shopping mall, how can there be any moral bottom line at all, and the actor's industry is not an egg without seams, in case Zhao Wei makes some scandals, scandals and other bad things, it is easy for those competitors to be involved with Li Jiaming.

can speak skillfully, Li Jiaming can be said to know this well, in Lao Gu's words, it is hypocritical.

"Xiaohui, it doesn't seem like you should have said it, right?"

"I just said you as a brother, or I don't bother to say it! Do you know who Zhao Wei's first boyfriend is? The last time she listened to the hotline at the newspaper, she slapped the table and scolded the person surnamed Fan, saying that he used her fame to hype. Brother, few of the people who come out of that circle are simple. ”

Li Jiaming knew about this, and he also knew that Wen Jin and Wang Yan went to work and suppressed this matter, otherwise it would have been a lot of uproar. And Li Jiaming also knows that Sun Hui is still merciful, and he didn't dig out some of Zhao Wei's unbearable past, how many clean ones are there in the entertainment industry?

But Li Jiaming can't say those words, to make a fortune is to establish a product, and by extension, those who wear shoes are afraid of bare feet. At his level, he has to be upright in everything he does, otherwise it will make people sick, and once the reputation is bad, it will be difficult to make it better. He can lose money, but he must not end up with the reputation of 'rich wife, noble friend', that will have a chain reaction, and the consequences will be very serious.

For example, in their own team, everyone is convinced of themselves, in addition to their ability to lead them to get ahead and become rich, there are also moral and moral reasons. Even Sun Yun wanted to be independent, and bowed to himself when he left, this is the charm of personality.

As long as your personality is recognized by everyone, even if you belong to different camps and opponents of each other, you will not easily do things. In the past few years, batches of richest men and wealthy people have fallen one after another, in addition to their own uncleanliness, arrogance and forgetting their roots after becoming rich are also important reasons.

Don't look at yourself and plan to come to the United States to mix, but the foundation is in the country, and reputation is a thing that can't be bad.

After being silent for a long time, after passing the message to be transmitted, Li Jiaming squeezed out a far-fetched smile and scolded: "Don't talk nonsense, I'll go back to China in the afternoon, what about you?"

Didn't you go back to China and say that you would go to Yahoo for a press conference?

It has to be postponed again, Toshiba has released a 5G high-density hard disk, and there is no way to make it more convenient for users in software, so it has to open up the Imperial League in terms of capacity. But this is a trade secret, Li Jiaming found another reason and said: "Hehe, Lao Zhang is so worried that he is about to cry, and it will be too late if he doesn't go back." ”

Isn't there just that there are more people who quit their jobs? Two-legged toads are hard to find, and there can be fewer two-legged people?

After a few words, Sun Hui begged again: "Brother, if it's good, lend me 500,000 yuan, and I promise to pay it back!"

After almost boiling up, Li Jiaming said with a straight face: "Let's come first, don't use my money to do dirty things!"

Does it count as running for my father? No, this is filial piety, knowing that Li Jiaming is a filial son, Sun Hui, immediately swore: "I promise the old man Taizu!"

"I'll give you back to you, Miss Marissa, and we'll have a few words. ”

“ok”

It's been very busy these days, and Li Jiaming hasn't asked clearly, how can this real Wall Street gold collar give up a high salary, YLE's salary is not high, only $50,000 a year, maybe not as high as the bonus that people get for a business.

"Boss, my previous job was not a stockbroking and investment manager, but a trainee lawyer in the legal department, with an annual salary of only $30,000. Most importantly, you represent the emerging power of the Internet, and I have confidence in you and your company!"

Oh, and his father's phone call that day was so coincidental that Kyle didn't have time to explain it to herself. This person is a good candidate, has an MBA degree, and can help him deal with investment matters.

Li Jiaming waved his hand, blasted Sun Hui next to him away, and led the new assistant to take a walk in the garden. The person who can be liked by Kyle, ability and professional ethics are definitely no problem, but Li Jiaming hopes that she still has a good business vision.

"Marissa, do you think Yahoo started making content, is this a strategic mistake or the right one?"

The iPod is fantastic, far from the similar products available on the supermarket market, which is the most important reason Marissa left Morgan/Chase. A large company has the advantages of a large company, but a large company also has the disadvantages of a large company, and a small company like the company has a very good product, and it is easy to become a leader in this field, and the first person to join will have a lot of opportunities! Not to mention being the assistant of the boss, even if the company fails in the end, he can learn a lot of experience, which is far faster than growing in a large company.

Now that the boss is starting the formal interview, Marissa pondered for a moment and replied, "Personally, I think there is nothing wrong with this decision, but it must be done after Yahoo has really monopolized the search market." ”

Li Jiaming shook his head in disappointment and instructed: "You go to find similar companies in Yahoo, you must have unique technology, and the next time I return to the United States, I will see a detailed list and description." ”

“”

"Within three months, renovate and furnish this house, and I'll give you a million dollars. ”

““

It's not bad, I didn't negotiate a hiring agreement, I promised to do things first. Li Jiaming is most annoyed by those who have not achieved any results, so they talk to themselves about salary and treatment.
