Chapter 130 "Rescued" 1% of Siemens shares
The moment the door of Zhao Yili's house opened, the light was so warm
Bathing in this warm light, time suddenly turns.
Five years ago.
Because of the effectiveness of the first aid measures taken at the onset of the illness, Mrs. Hutter was quickly restored to health by the mission hospital when the flight landed, and when Mr. Hutter arrived at the mission hospital from abroad, he was able to walk slowly with the support of the nurse.
Mr. and Mrs. Hutter are in their 50s, but they have no children and no daughters, and belong to some of the mainstream "Dink" families in Western society at this time, Hutt himself runs his own sports equipment company all over Europe, in fact, what is even more unknown is that Hutter owns 3% of the shares of Siemens, which is due to the fact that his father was extremely proud of a series of business operations, and the unique choice of Siemens when Siemens first made a big private equity investment, the all-or-nothing investment option.
Years later, before the elder Huter died, although the 9% stake had been diluted to 3% after multiple capital injections, the original investment of several million marks has now been worth nearly 100 million US dollars. In the eyes of the couple, this is actually thanks to the Chinese teenager who helped him on the plane, for Hutt, it is not difficult to find Zhao Yili through the airline, so the two decided to modify the will after careful deliberation and gave one-third of the 3% Siemens shares to the Oriental teenager to thank him for saving his family's life.
But when the Hutes rushed to the Technical University of Munich to find Zhao Yili to explain their intentions, they were politely rejected by him.
Hute didn't know a lot about the motherland of the young man in front of him, and learned that it was a country that was still suffering from poverty and some backward development, and many businessmen, politicians or students who left there and immigrated to Europe and the United States.
Hute first communicated with Zhao Yili's mentor Thomas that he would donate a library to the school in the name of Zhao Yili, and at the same time promised to sponsor the research funds of Thomas Studio's studio for three years, which impressed Zhao Yili, and Zhao Yili had no choice but to accept this gift when he insisted on not being fruitless.
The Hutes hired a professional lawyer to handle the gift, but this is not an uncommon thing among the shareholders of Siemens, which is the largest company in Germany and one of the top three electrical companies in the world, with 300,000 employees worldwide, and more than 10,000 local and foreign shareholders. Of course, now counting the 1% Siemens shares accepted by Zhao Yili, the current market value is close to 50 million US dollars, and Zhao Yili is more clear that Siemens Group will more than triple its market value in the next ten years, so this gift has essentially pushed itself into the ranks of Germany's top rich.
Although he has always despised the character of seeing money, he calmed down and quietly thought about the changes brought to him by this share gift event, in fact, it is far more than just a wealth number.
Siemens is a Fortune 500 large enterprise, but also a rigorous style, the pursuit of excellence, history of innovation of a large company, his research and development, management, operation mechanism is the future of their own business to create their own urgent need to learn and understand things, this is also later he figured out the joint, accept the most critical reason for this gift, this is a key, a golden key to bring themselves into the global height of the platform.
In the end, the couple went to the restaurant with Thomas and Zhao Yili to eat a steak with German characteristics, which was regarded as a testimony of a gift, and it was this steak that started, and Zhao Yili had not eaten fully cooked beef for a long time.
Time goes by, Zhao Yili has been in Munich for half a year, because the early preparation is more targeted and sufficient, and these local German students communicate in German, so that he quickly really integrated into the team of senior brothers, Thomas's management method is very special, his research group credits are the highest in the school, but the research group does not simply choose a major student, sometimes even cross-grade selection, so for Zhao Yili a newcomer, in addition to systematic learning in a short period of time, For the research topics assigned by the tutor across majors, the team must go deep into the exploration and research, which makes Zhao Yili progress extremely fast in such a combination of theory and practice, Thomas often nods secretly, and is quite pleased that he was admitted to such an oriental teenager in the first place.
When Zhao Yili came to Munich for nearly half a year, Mr. Hutter brought a guest he did not expect.
This is the famous James Cameron, the world-class director who created: "Terminator" and "Alien" series, and later refreshed the world movie box office with "Titanic" and "Avatar" to break the world movie box office he maintained. But it's definitely not just movies.
In 1988, when the two met, James Cameron's "Alien 2" was nominated for seven Oscars, and when he came to Munich for preliminary promotion, he talked to his old friend Hutt about an all-public welfare project he was planning. Diamantes believes that XPRIZE is about changing the world with science and technology, and is a foundation organization that aims to reward projects that have made extraordinary contributions to scientific and technological innovation and human progress. The letter "X" is easily reminiscent of extreme sports, and XPRIZE also deeply incorporates the connotation of "limit", that is, to use the concept of constantly breaking through the limit to do scientific and technological innovation, and ultimately benefit mankind.
Now is raising funds, because it is a pure public welfare fund, so many businessmen are discouraged, Hute originally wanted to sponsor a part of the funds, but through several contacts with Zhao Yili in the past six months, he was surprised to find in Zhao Yili a trait that is extremely similar to his old friend Cameron - that is, paranoia, this kind of paranoia, you can understand it as persistence, can be understood as stubbornness or any other characteristic, when they think seriously, the kind of essence of truth, Or the pursuit of the extreme realm, which made Huter determined to introduce Cameron and Zhao Yili to get acquainted.
As a result, these two old and young paranoids are actually two guys who hate to meet late, Zhao Yili not only agreed to invest 10 million US dollars to sponsor this fund project, but even for many of the direction to be determined in the development of the fund, he is also very interested.
It is precisely because of this relationship that Zhao Yili participated in the research group in the first year was not just one, but two completely different fields.
On the one hand, Zhao Yili is involved in a project in the automotive field, and on the other hand, he participates in a project related to the ocean of the XPRIZE Foundation for the rest of the time.
The requirement of the marine project is that the participants or teams must develop offshore equipment that can quickly deal with seawater oil pollution within the specified time, and the team with the best effect and the lowest cost will receive a prize of 2 million US dollars.
On the day of the finals, the sunshine on the beach was so warm.
