Chapter 602 [Xu Huaiyu of Singing in the Middle of the Night]
Lu Chong's mind has always been divergent thinking, he can think of many people from one person, from one thing to many things, he thought of Lin Zhiling from Gong Yin, thought of Lin Zhiling should still be studying in Canada now, thought of Canada, thought of David Cheriton, a wealthy man in Canada, and thought of a project that David Cheriton would invest in a year, Google search.

David Cherryton, who is one of Canada's 20 richest people at $1.7 billion, is a professor at Stanford University, and in addition to teaching, he is also passionate about investing in start-ups, most successfully in Google.
In 1998, while still attending Stanford, Larry Page and Sergei Brin (two Google founders) approached David Cherryton to present their entrepreneurial project on the porch of the latter's home. Professor Cheryton and his friend Andy Betoshem wrote a cheque for $100,000 on the spot in support of the small company, which had not yet left the dormitory, which later became Google, and since then, he has become the first angel investor to invest in Google, and his $100,000 has become more than a billion dollars.
With such a big bargain, how could Lu Chong let him take the lead, he Lu Chong wanted to become the first angel investor to invest in Google, and he was the largest investor in the shares.
Google was founded on September 4, 1998, but it has been two years since Larry Page conceived the idea of using built-in links to rank web pages in his dream, that is to say, Larry Page came up with the framework of Google search in 1996, and now it is 1997, if Lu Chong continues to indulge in the life of fooling around with female celebrities and is a little dull, maybe Larry Page will meet a discerning venture capitalist in advance, then he Lu Chong will want to get money from this big cash cow with a market value of more than one trillion in the future!
He has so many wives and children to raise, how can he not make this money! How can you watch hundreds of billions of yuan pass by you!
Therefore, he decided to take time to go to Stanford as soon as possible, meet Larry Page, help him realize his great idea, help him establish Google, and give him exclusive investment!
With Lu Chong's investment, Larry Page and his family don't have to start a business in a garage anymore.
In 1998, at the age of 30, Su Shan, who had just graduated from an MBA, bought a house with her husband and wanted to take a taxi garage to ease her mortgage, renting out the garage and several other rooms to two Stanford graduate students for $1,700 a month. They sometimes eat pizza and chocolate together at night, talk about how their technology will change the world, and then thank Susanne for having a washer and dryer in her garage. The two of them also announced that they would collect and retrieve the entire Internet, and then went on to ask Su Shan when she collected garbage? The two founders were Larry Page and Sergey Brin. This "career" conflicted with their studies at the time, so they wanted to sell Google to Excite for a million dollars, but the latter rejected the deal, presumably regretting it, and Google became the most visited website on the planet, and later the owner of the garage, Susan, also joined Google, known as the "Mother of Google".
One night two years ago, he had a dream that he could download the entire Internet, look at the links on different pages, and then be able to see the world's information in a whole new way, and the code he wrote that night became the basis of an algorithm, which he called PageRank, and used it to support a new Internet search engine, BackRub, July 2001, BackRub changed its name to Google.
The next day, he took Jiang Lili to Huaxing Entertainment to sign a contract, Jiang Lili then did various training in the company for the filming of Huanzhu Gege, and Lu Chong flew back to Xiangjiang that afternoon.
That night, I comforted all the female stars who had not been comforted recently.
On the third day, he was about to fly to the country of mold, but found that because of some problems, he could not fly directly from Xiangjiang to the country of mold, but there was an indirect way to fly from the treasure island to the country of mold, so he flew from Xiangjiang to the island first, and prepared to fly to the country of mold.
That night, he flew to Taipei, where he first met with Zhou Jielun, Fang Wenshan and Zhang Shaohan sisters, and a morale-boosting flicker made Zhou Jielun, Fang Wenshan and Zhang Shaohan sisters fight high and prepare their respective albums.
After eating with Zhou Jielun and them, a full-time driver hired by the Baodao branch drove a Mercedes-Benz car equipped by the company and sent Lu Chong to see Jia Jingwen and Tianxin.
There was a traffic jam on the road, and the full-time driver was a native of Taipei, and he was familiar with the roads here, so he suggested to Lu Chong that he should take the alley road to avoid the congested road in front of him.
Lu Chong nodded in agreement and let the driver decide.
The Mercedes-Benz was speeding forward in the alleys with a unique style in Taipei, Lu Chong leaned on the back seat, closed his eyes and recuperated, he was a little rushed these days, he was a little tired, and he almost fell asleep with his eyes closed.
Just when he was about to fall asleep, he was suddenly awakened by a burst of singing, which was a singing voice from a house on the side of the alley, singing Zhang Huimei's song, a little out of tune, but the voice was very bright, very explosive, very distinctive, and very recognizable.
Lu Chong immediately heard it, this was the voice of Xu Huaiyu, the most popular civilian diva on Treasure Island in the next few years!
No, Xu Huaiyu hasn't debuted yet, this is not the voice in her album, this is her true voice!
Lu Chong immediately asked the driver to stop, and he followed the sound.
When he walked to the door of Xu Huaiyu's house, he suddenly found that a middle-aged man appeared out of nowhere, talking to himself in a thick Baodao accent: "This voice is too distinctive, too beautiful, after my Weng Xiaoliang's creation, she can definitely make her a new diva!" ”
The memories of Xu Huaiyu all flooded into Lu Chong's mind at once.
Xu Huaiyu comes from a single-parent family, is the eldest in the family, has a younger brother and two half-sisters, and the family only relies on her mother to do odd jobs in an electronics factory. In order to reduce the burden on her mother, Xu Huaiyu worked part-time in a western restaurant to supplement the family when she was a freshman in high school, and once she sang while washing clothes at home, and was heard by Weng Xiaoliang, a music producer passing by, so she was introduced to the showbiz.
In 1998, 20-year-old Xu Huaiyu signed with Rolling Stone Records and released the album of the same name "Xu Huaiyu", and in October of the same year, the album "Rushing Forward" was released. In the most glorious era of records, Xu Huaiyu's two records sold more than two million copies, becoming the first person in the Chinese music scene. The singing of songs such as "Treading the Waves", "Rushing Forward" and "Crystal" made Xu Huaiyu popular all over the country overnight, and he was also known as the "civilian diva". At that time, Xu Huaiyu, Wu Peici, Chen Qizhen and Li Xinjie were praised as "girl specimens" by Rolling Stone Records, and Xu Huaiyu relied on records to kill a "blood road" from the four. When Zhou Xingxing directed "The King of Comedy", Xu Huaiyu was the first choice for "Liu Piaopiao", and Zhou Xingxing was even willing to cooperate with the delayed start of her schedule, but unfortunately Xu Huaiyu was too popular to adjust the schedule, and finally Zhou Xingxing enabled Zhang Bozhi.
