Lu Hao and Bill Gates's negotiation secrecy measures were done very well, the reporters did not hear the slightest rumor, and all news was tightly blocked, just for tomorrow's shock. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

However, the negotiation with Bill Gates was still detonated by some people, which Lu Hao deliberately did, which could increase his bargaining chips greatly.

Xinhu Hotel!

The Provincial Party Committee who was resting in the room~ Secretary Chen was suddenly woken up by a fierce knock on the door, Secretary Chen understood that if there was no major event, no one would knock on the door like this, and the current major events are most likely good news.

Secretary Chen didn't even wear shoes, he directly dragged a pair of slippers to open the door, and as soon as the door opened a gap, Liu Huantong squeezed in excitedly, and couldn't help laughing after closing the door, "Secretary Chen's good news, Microsoft acquired a technology of Matrix Technology for $1.8 billion." ”

"$1.8 billion!" The calm and spicy Secretary Chen also shouted in surprise, although as the governor of a province, he has seen a lot of money and invested a lot in large projects, but it is really the first time that it is 1.8 billion US dollars.

In 96 years, not to mention Donghu Province, even the number of people in the country who saw the figure of 1.8 billion US dollars at a time is very rare, you must know that in 96 years, our country's foreign exchange reserves were only tens of billions of US dollars, which is definitely an astronomical amount.

Lu Hao also rushed to the Xinhu Hotel after he was busy, he knew that many leaders would be in a hurry to see him at this time, and he couldn't delay.

Lu Hao doesn't think it's too high for $1.8 billion, and China feels that the concept of this number should be described innumerably, but in the American Internet frenzy, $1.8 billion is not a surprising number for a person.

People in the IT industry may know a set of numbers, that is, the Internet penetration rate, the penetration rate in the United States in 96 years is equivalent to our country's 2008 year, so there is a basis for the Internet frenzy that broke out in the United States in the late 90s.

Lu Hao believes that the number that appears tonight is definitely not just 1.8 billion US dollars, and the most critical moment is not the press conference but before the press conference, there will be no sleep tonight, and Lu Hao is also ready.

Xinhu Hotel received a notice to prepare several conference rooms at all times, and when Lu Hao arrived, investors from all over the world had already chartered three of them.

When Lu Hao arrived at the Xinhu Hotel, the management team of Haohai Investment was already waiting in one of the conference rooms, Lu Hao first reported to several government staff, and the leader asked him to be on call, and he was waiting in the No. 5 conference room.

"Lu Hao!" Prince Shah Walid called Lu Hao in broken Chinese, and Lu Hao saw that it was Walid who replied in English with a smile, "Hello prince, we can communicate in English." ”

"You are my friend, don't call me prince, just call me Waleed."

"Yes, my friend, Waleed!" Lu Hao said with a smile.

"Lu Hao, this is a director of the sovereign wealth fund of the Saudi government, Abdul Ali." Waleed said, pointing to an Arab beside him.

"Hello sir!" Lu Hao shook hands with him.

After a brief greeting to Lu Hao, Abdul Ali suddenly said, "Our Saudi government sovereign foundation will provide you with a long-term large interest-free loan, you only need to set up a Saudi online company in Saudi Arabia, with the influence of our Saudi government in the Middle East, we guarantee that Saudi online will be the only network service provider in most countries in the Middle East." ”

Lu Hao was a little clueless when he heard it, and when he was about to say no, he suddenly saw Lin Shan walking out of the conference room and standing at the door to signal to him, although he didn't understand what it meant, but Lu Hao knew that something must have happened, swallowed back the words that came to his mouth, and said with a smile, "Thank you very much, thank you Saudi Arabia, thank you Prince Waleed, Mr. Abdul Ali, I guarantee that you Saudi Arabia is the first country to use the most advanced Internet technology." ”

Waleed frowned, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Lu Hao, let's start negotiations tonight, you should see the sincerity of our Saudi government." ”

"Prince Waleed, I'll satisfy you tonight, but now I'm going to be out of company!" After Lu Hao shook hands with them one by one, he walked quickly into the conference room.

As soon as she entered the conference room, Lin Shan couldn't wait to say, "Oh no, something happened to our Huaxia Online, and the Information Industry Management Department of the Planning Commission issued a document on the suspension of business for rectification." ”

"We're going to clean up before we even start? Rectify what? "Lu Hao is not a little strange, his press conference has moved some monopoly industry cheese, this situation is not strange, it is really strange not to appear.

"Lu Hao, our free network access and free calls may be a little ahead, it seems that we have to adjust the development plan, otherwise it will be difficult for my network to enter the household." Lin Shan said.

Lu Hao walked to the front of the conference room, sat on a chair, and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, we have no more than three million personal computers connected to the network in Huaxia, the country is so big, and the users are so scattered, if we Huaxia Online invests in the backbone network so much, it will only go bankrupt." ”

"We also know that the early development of Huaxia Online is mainly to use free calls to attract customers to access the optical fiber network, but this has moved the cheese of post and telecommunications, how can we compete with them?" Liu Yu, a government relations officer, has worked in the State ~ Ministry of Affairs ~ for decades, and he is well aware of the interests involved, some things can be moved, and some things are not allowed to be moved.

"Huh!" Lu Hao suddenly laughed, "The masses are big or the government is big, the interests of the people are important or the interests of a few people are important, we just need to figure this out, sometimes the people will be the masters of my own house." ”

"Lu Hao, what you think is too simple, our country is definitely a big government, and there are more than a billion people, one less, ten less, a hundred less, a thousand less, who cares?"

Lu Hao was silent for a long time, then suddenly stood up, his eyes flashed and said, "I want to say a word, the world is very big, and there is not only one Huaxia. As a representative of the enterprise, we should keep our patriotism in our hearts, and the cause is the first, you look at our high-level, the proportion of Chinese people is in the minority, and the majority in the world, they give up the favorable conditions to join in for the like-minded ideal, not to sit here and think about how to deal with the government. ”

The applause rang out warmly, and it didn't stop for a long time.

"Unpatriotic?" Liu Yu sighed and sat down in his seat without a sound.

"I love my country!" Lu Hao said loudly, "I am more patriotic than you, I love my country, my family, and the land of China, I am truly patriotic!"

And you seem to be patriotic, but you are not patriotic, you love the government, you love power, you love a small group of interests of the privileged class, and your patriotism has kidnapped more than a billion people in the country! ”

"Strictly speaking, I am also an American, although I have immigrated, it does not mean that I do not love Huaxia anymore!" Lin Shan stood up and said loudly, slowly clapping her palms, "I'll give this applause to Lu Hao!" ”

Carl Wharton also clapped applause and stood up, "I love the United States, I love Huaxia, I love working here, and I also want to give applause to my favorite boss, Lu Hao." ”

Everyone in the conference room stood up, and the applause became louder and louder, Liu Yu looked at everyone, sighed and shook his head, "I have been educated by the party all my life, and now it seems that I am really old." ”

Liu Yu's spirit seemed to collapse suddenly, he was silent for a long time, his lips were bitten and white, he didn't speak, turned around and left here silently.

Lu Hao shouted at his back that was about to disappear, "Liu Lao, I also respect you, you have fought all your life for your beliefs, and you deserve my respect, but I will not agree that the government is greater than the masses." ”

After Liu Lao left, the conference room fell silent, Lu Hao looked at the people who wanted to speak a few times, and said with a smile, "We don't do anything, wait with peace of mind, the answer will be revealed soon, we have to have confidence in ourselves!" ”
