Chapter 179: Looking at the World

Boeing 747 airliner on board. First Class.

Altitude 30,000 feet above the ground.

Xia Ruxuan squinted his eyes slightly, plugged his headphones and played soft soft music. This was just the beginning of the journey, and half an hour earlier, the plane had taken off from Sunan Hengning International Airport and was destined for Las Vegas, Nevada.

This trip was a trip of four people, except for Xia and Xia Ruxuan, Chen Mu and the man in his thirties who Xia Ruxuan didn't pay attention to. Summer said that he was sent by the big man behind the scenes, and was in charge of the translation work of this negotiation.

Even though he had always maintained a calm attitude, looking at the sly gaze projected through the gold-rimmed glasses in an occasional moment, Xia Ruxuan suddenly felt that he was not so much in charge of translation as a whole-process supervision.

However, Xia Ruxuan quickly discovered one of his characteristics, because at this moment, he was sitting in a position one summer away from Xia Ruxuan, raising his head and accosting a flight attendant with good looks and perfect figure.

"Sir, is there anything I can do to help you?" The professional quality of the flight attendant flying international flights was indeed extraordinary, and she had that standard professional smile on her face, and she bent over, even though the man looked at her with an aggressive gaze.

"Help me get a blanket," the man laughed, his smile looked a little obscene under Xia Ruxuan's feelings, he paused and suddenly became serious, but there was a bit of sanctimoniousness, "And Miss, you are very beautiful." ”

"Thank you," the stewardess didn't change the expression on her face, took out the blanket to help him spread it out and handed it to him, "Do you need any more help?" ”

"I don't know if I'll have time to invite you to a drink in Las Vegas......" Seeing that the flight attendant was not moved in the slightest, he smiled and then interjected, "If you don't want to, it's okay when you return to China," he stretched out his hand and handed a business card to the flight attendant, "This is my business card, I'm sorry to forgive me for being abrupt, because after seeing you for the first time, I found that my past life turned out to be a blank." ”

That made Xia Ruxuan feel very when he heard it, and from this man in his thirties who definitely looked like he had a successful career, he really felt a little bit like it. Although Xia Ruxuan didn't know what was written on the business card he handed to the flight attendant, looking at the slightly fluctuating expression on the flight attendant's face, he knew that the wording on the business card must be very beautiful.

And more importantly, this is first class, and the passengers here must not have the same weight in the hearts of the flight attendants as economy class.

Xia Ruxuan shook his head, closed his eyes and made his posture a little easierβ€”it was a journey of thirteen hours. It was close to five o'clock and close to six o'clock when we departed from southern Jiangsu, and when we arrived in Las Vegas thirteen hours later it was ten o'clock in the evening, which was a full day without seeing the daylight - the time difference between the Pacific time zone and Yenching time in Las Vegas was sixteen hours.

"You must be going to Las Vegas for the first time." The glasses translator looked around, and seemed to think of something very interesting, and turned to Xia Xia and Xia Ruxuan and asked.

"Hmm." Although Summer didn't want to deal with him, this person did have a bit of weight. Originally, a translator was nothing, but it was someone sent from above, which made Summer have to be cautious. Even if he was reluctant, he could only nod his head in response.

"Las Vegas is the largest city in Nevada, USA, although it used to be a gambling city caricatured as a 'sin city', but now it is not as chaotic as you think, and has gradually matured and become a real large-scale tourist city." He obviously didn't care about Summer's attitude, and continued to talk to himself.

"I don't have any impression of that city, there's no chaos or no chaos." Summer pursed her lips and said concisely and directly.

"Then why do you still have bodyguards with you?"

"We're not here to travel, we're here to talk about business. Who knows if there will be any situation. ”

"Oh......" The man nodded thoughtfully, glancing at Chen Mu, whose face was as hard as marble. Then he turned to look at Xia Ruxuan as if he wanted to say something, but Xia Ruxuan quickly turned up the sound of the headphones to make sure he couldn't hear any sound from that person. Only then did he close his eyes with satisfaction.

He's different from Summer, he doesn't need to look at that person's face or give him any face. Lin Xin's business, those things that operate in the dark have nothing to do with him. It's purely to avoid going on the road alone when someone happens to be with you. Except for the back and forth, the journey on the two sides is completely different, and after arriving in Las Vegas, Xia Ruxuan has a night to rest.

The next day, you'll board a flight to Boston, the capital of Massachusetts and the largest city in the New England region. I finally want to meet the long-known man of the hour, Mark Zuckerberg.

The chips in his hand are a complete version of a simplified and beautified version of the SNS social networking site that he has spent a lot of time rearing and producing, and a company that Mougins has registered before and now has total assets of $200,000. According to Xia Ruxuan's understanding of the operation of Facebook in the past, the process of its rise, and the degree of development of the Internet in the United States, this $200,000 is enough to support it for a considerable period of time, plus his vision must be much broader than that of Zuckerberg at this moment. In this life, the development of this website must be able to speed up to a considerable extent, you must know that in the previous life, it was just a simple idea of Mark Zuckerberg, which created such a beautiful accident. For quite some time, they were unable to pay for the server, which led to a significant delay in opening Facebook to other schools.

And now, Xia Ruxuan will definitely not let these problems happen. Time is running out. He recalls a recent email from Mark Zuckerberg by email to him – "I'm thrilled to hear that you've decided to come to the U.S., and I have a hunch that this is going to be a fantastic moment." I'm even wondering what a wise man like you would be like. There are a lot of Asian-American students on our campus, and there is no shortage of Chinese-Americans, but unfortunately most of the people I know are Chinese Americans who grew up in the United States, and they don't know as much about that amazing country as I do.

I know that in your culture there is a word called fate. I think you can find me through the Internet and know some news about me, this is fate. But, Natsu, I have to tell you something even more unbelievable.

It's been a puzzle for me for a long time - you remember what I told you I made of the app that rated the girls in the apartment, facemash. It did get a hit in Harvard circles for a while, but it got me a frustrating punishment, and they called it 'cyber security breaches,' and those old diehards didn't even admit that I found these security vulnerabilities a, uh, to reduce cyber security risks.

And all of this made a mess of my life, and it was clear that I was isolated by all the girls. Recently, someone suddenly came forward and said that they wanted to help me and give me a chance to clear my name, but they lacked a good programmer. I was dismissive of what they said, but when they say what they think...... I was shocked.

They wanted to make a circulating at Harvard, an online roster, yes, you read that right -- the-facebook. If I hadn't heard of your idea before, I would have almost been impressed by what they had to say. Unfortunately, their creativity is rudimentary, and compared to your concept, it's like a baby. So I didn't give them an answer, looking forward to meeting you in Cambridge City, and I can't wait. I can feel that this is going to be a historic moment. ”

He knew who the person who had advised Zuckerberg was, and in fact a few years later, they took Mark Zuckerberg to court, claiming that Mark Zuckerberg had copied their idea and received tens of millions of dollars in damages. But soon the facts tell everyone that tens of millions of dollars are pure drop in the bucket for Facebook in the midst of its take-off.

This will indeed be a historical moment, Xia Ruxuan whispered in his heart. From now on, he wants to build a business empire that is comparable to the Xia Clan, or even more influential than the Xia Clan. In the recent period of thinking, he has discovered that if he only looks for the opportunity to save everything from within the Xia clan, from the inside of everything, it is absolutely impossible to do it.

The Xia family has entered an outdated circle and is difficult to extricate himself, and even if he Xia Ruxuan fights behind Xia Yunbai for a lifetime, he will not be able to escape from that circle, only outside of everything, standing up a strong enough force, then he will have a chance to fight with it. Because the root of everything is interests, if Xia Ruxuan has enough interest energy in his hands, many problems will be solved. It's like when you suddenly have a hundred dollars for nothing, will you still be obsessed with the five cents you pay for groceries?

Comparing the future Facebook empire with the interests of the current Xia Yunbai who is trying his best to compete for the interests of the club in the western suburbs is the best testimony. It doesn't matter which side the black hand behind the scenes is coming from. On the one hand, it strengthens the energy and connections of the Xia clan itself, and on the other hand, as Xia Ruxuan thinks now, let himself develop rapidly in the next few years, and eight years later...... No, maybe in just five years, or even less, as long as you can help the Xia clan at a critical moment, you will definitely be able to get through that difficulty, at least ...... Let everything have a back road, as long as Xia Yunbai doesn't die, what if he loses something.

Xia Ruxuan's vision at this moment has long ceased to be in the small southern Jiangsu or Suhe Province.

There are more than enough opportunities in the future for him to grasp the top of the world, the things that those people play.

In that case, why bother not to be attached to that Xia clan? The worst result is that the Xia clan is destroyed, then he will create a new Xia clan!
