Son hopes that Angel Capital will take a step back from the valuations of Blogger, eBay and ICQ, after all, it is a bit too much to raise $500 million in Series A financing alone. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The three companies carried out Series A financing because of lack of funds, and Son knew these inside stories and would not let go of such a good opportunity. He is ready to use procrastination to force angel capital to give in, who knows that a phoenix capital will be killed halfway. However, Son still decided not to eat back grass immediately, so he immediately asked his subordinates below to arrange a direct flight from Los Angeles to Japan.

Palo Alto, adjacent to San Francisco, is located in California, USA. This city is not a cat or a dog, it is famous all over the world. Because Stanford University, one of the world's top private research universities, is located in the city of Para'atu.

1 square kilometer equals 1500 acres, while Stanford University covers an area of 35 square kilometers. The large campus area is one of the advantages of Stanford University, not only because of the vast space and picturesque scenery, but most importantly, because of the large campus area of Stanford University.

Stanford's take-off was after the seventies, thanks to the large size of Stanford, more than 8,000 acres, and the large area of space available to the school, so in 1959 Frederickterman, the dean of the School of Engineering, came up with an idea -- this was the turning point for Stanford University: 1,000 acres at a very low, nominal rent for a long time to the business community or alumni to set up companies, and then they worked with the school to provide various research projects and student internship opportunities.

Thanks to the advice that land should be rewarded with great gains, Stanford has put itself at the forefront of the United States: "Enterprises in the industrial park opened one after another, and soon beyond the scope of the land that Stanford could provide, it expanded outward, forming the "Silicon Valley" of California's cutting-edge technology and elites.

Madrid walked into this campus with great emotion, Stanford, as the second largest university in the United States, is on par with Harvard University. He is no stranger, and even wanted to enter Stanford after graduating from high school, but unfortunately his grades were not satisfactory.

This time, when Madrid came to Stanford University, he targeted Larry Page and Sergey Brin.

Larry Page's father, Carl Vinson Page, was a professor of computer science at Michigan State University with a Ph.D. in computer science. His mother, Gloria Page, was also a computer science professor at Michigan State University. He also has extraordinary achievements in the field of computers.

Sergei Brin's father was a very famous mathematician, and he was a terrible person. Brin entered Stanford University, where the gifted student was favored by fate, allowing him to pursue a Ph.D. in computer science without a master's degree.

Beginning in 1996, Page and Brin began working together on a research project called "Backrub", which they should have been busy with at this time. However, in April 1998, Page and Brin got the guidance of Robin Li in Australia, and only in the second half of 1998 did they gradually improve the technology and rank pages based on Pagerank.

At this time, I believe that without Robin Li's guidance, the two are still worried about the "backrub" research project.

Along the way, Madrid finally got the exact location of the computer science department. In the School of Computer Science, Page and Brin are celebrities, both in the eyes of the student body and their mentors. In particular, Sergei Brin's genius name is admired by teachers and students in the Department of Computer Science at Stanford.

Sergei Brin was able to take at least 70% of Google's success in the future, that is, his unparalleled technology. Google's initial funding was only a check for $100,000 from their teacher, Andy Behetohim, for which they had to be careful to save money, especially since Google had 10,000 searches a day at that time, and Sergey Brin used his technology to organize his own blade server, which saved more than half of the money. In particular, Sergey Brin's self-assembled blade servers are actually better than those produced by IBM.

Of course, Paige is not a small credit. Sergei Brin is a tech nerd, but there is one thing wrong with tech nerds, and that is that they are nerds. Paige, on the other hand, was often active in public places such as the student council when he was studying, and he was very good at socializing with people. Their teacher, Andy Behetohim, was able to write a check for $100,000 to support them, and Page was credited with it. Even when some important VCs came to negotiate later, it was Paige who did it.

The place where Madrid met Page and Brin was in their dormitory, where they worked and researched.

“whoareyou？” When Madrid knocked on the door of the dormitory for Page and Brin, the door opened abruptly before the third knock.

"My name is Madrid, do Larry Page and Sergey Brin live here?" Madrid is very polite, you must know that these two masters are talents valued by their boss!

"I'm Larry Page, what's the matter with you?" Larry Page has a wide range of contacts, and it's not a big deal to get stuck in the dorm room with other women's boyfriends. However, he won't have a good temper about this, after all, a slap can't make a sound, and he personally thinks that he is not responsible for this kind of thing.

As soon as Madrid heard that he had found the right owner, his eyes looked up and down at the guy opposite who was valued by the boss. He was about twenty years old, tall and had thick eyebrows.

"You're Larry Page!"

"Say anything, don't talk nonsense!" Larry Page was a little impatient, and he couldn't figure out what the yellow-skinned monkey was doing.

"Hello." Madrid is inexplicable, but this guy in front of him is a person valued by the boss, and it is really not good to have a seizure, and he still speaks softly and politely.

"Hello!" Larry Page is not stupid, and now he has found out that the script is wrong, so instead of being tactful, "I wonder what Mr. Ma is looking for me and Sergey Brin?" ”

Madrid smiled slightly, glanced at Larry's hand pressed against the door, and asked, "Why don't you invite us in and talk about it?" ”

Larry blushed, withdrew his hand and smiled a little embarrassedly: "Please!" ”

?“ Thank you! Madrid smiled, and walked into the dormitory with great interest.

The university dormitories in the United States in the 90s were much better than those in China, not to mention that Larry Page and Sergey Brin were studying for Ph.D. degrees, and Stanford was originally large, so it was naturally very good in terms of accommodation, and it could even be ranked among the top universities in the United States.

The dormitory for the two is a suite, with two bedrooms, one living room and one bathroom, which is enviable to Madrid, why is the treatment of being a man so big! When I think about the accommodation conditions when I was in college, there is no comparison at all.

The living room of more than ten square meters is crowded and looks very messy. In the middle of the living room is a coffee table with exposed computer parts without a case cover.

Madrid also graduated with a computer science major, so he was naturally familiar with servers, and he was very interested in sticking out his neck and trying to check it. After all, he was personally named by Liu Si, and he made a special trip to visit, and he wanted to know what the two guys had that deserved so much attention from the boss.

"You assembled it yourself?" Madrid knew from the server on the table, some of the parts, and the brands were just assembling the server.

"Hmm."

"Tell me about the functionality of this server, how about it?"

Larry Page could not succeed without a little treachery, as a 25-year-old man, an adult, he has long had a deep understanding of the dangers of society. Later generations of media have reported on Google's hundreds of thousands of servers, Google's servers are all assembled by Googlers themselves, which obviously involves some technologies and patents that can save a lot of money!

He has a deep understanding of the value of the server he built with Sergey Brin. After all, you only need to spend half of the money to get a blade server comparable to IBM's most advanced blade server today, and if you make deals with big manufacturers such as Intel, Hupu, Dell, etc., the patented technology is definitely as high as $1 million, or even more!

"What is Mr. Ma looking for the two of us, please explain." Larry Page didn't answer Madrid's question directly, just asked lightly.

"I'm just here to give you a fortune."

Seeing that Madrid's smiling appearance didn't look like a fake, but pie wouldn't fall from the sky, Larry Page asked, "Please Mr. Ma speak clearly!" ”

"From what we know, the two of us have been working together since 1996 on a search engine called 'backrub,' and I came here for that." He turned his head to look at Page and Brin, who were listening intently, and said with a smile: "Now, it makes us think that the two of us are very determined." ”

Larry Page and Sergey Brin looked up as they finished speaking in Madrid just in time to see the unknown Chinese pointing to the newly assembled server on the coffee table.

"Really, will Mr. Ma really invest in our project?" As soon as Sergey Brin heard that someone was willing to invest in the 'backrub' project, the tech nerd almost jumped up and hugged Madrid and kissed him fiercely. The reason why Larry Page and Sergey Brin have been working together on 'backrub' for more than a year without much progress is that the financial dilemma is a major problem.

Madrid was a little surprised that Larry Page was unexpectedly not happy, but wondered, "Mr. Ma, 'backrub' is in trouble, I'm afraid Mr. Ma's investment will be in vain." ”

"I know you're in trouble, but we can fix it."

However, after Madrid's words, it was not only Sergei Brin, but even Larry Page, who has always been afraid of heaven and earth and very calm, looked at Madrid expectantly, expecting him to solve the problems they were currently experiencing.
