Chapter 99: Return to Hong Kong

"Mr. Li!" Wu Yaoyang, who had been sitting behind him and had not made a sound, suddenly shouted.

"Well, what's the matter?" Li Xuan, who was standing in front of the glass cubicle, asked suspiciously.

Wu Yaoyang sat on the chair, pondered for a moment and said, "I think the thirty percent equity you just proposed, I think it is likely that you will not get so much." ”

"Oh?" Li Xuan turned around curiously, looked at Wu Yaoyang and asked, "Why do you say that?" ”

"Because U.S. law requires U.S. domestic corporations with 25% or more foreign ownership to file an annual disclosure statement with the IRS disclosing financial transactions with foreign entities." Wu Yaoyang shrugged his shoulders and said with a meaningful expression: "You know, there are many such small companies in the United States, and there are ...... internally."

Wu Yaoyang didn't say anything further, and Li Xuan didn't seem to understand a little. The rich people in the United States are all masters of tax evasion, and there must be a lot of shady scenes in them.

However, Li Xuan shrugged his shoulders indifferently, walked back to his seat and sat down, picked up his coffee and said with a smile: "It's okay, I don't plan to get 25% of the equity, as long as I can get 20%, I'll be very happy." ”

"Twenty percent?" Brandon asked in surprise, "So little?" ”

"That's a lot, especially after I just said the second reason in front of them." Li Xuan took a sip of coffee and said slowly: "If you can buy me a connection like Mr. Bill for one million, I can give you one million for nothing." ”

"Uh......, I can't buy it." Blanton replied reluctantly.

"Haha, so, be content." Li Xuan laughed loudly.

Bill? The Gates and the three came back earlier than Li Xuan expected, and the three obviously experienced a quarrel. Bill? Gates and Old Bill are still red-faced, and as for Paul? Allen, this guy has a beard on his face, and Li Xuan can't see it.

As soon as you enter the room, Bill? Gates sat down and said to Li Xuan: "Mr. Li, we have discussed it, and we can only sell you 20% of the equity." ”

"Twenty percent? A million dollars? Li Xuan asked with a straight face.

Although he had an unhappy face, Li Xuan's heart was in ecstasy, and sure enough, this bargain had to be reported to Gaoli. No, the purpose of the negotiation has been achieved!

Bill? Gates nodded in response, of course, "yes." ”

Li Xuan didn't reply immediately, tilted his head lightly and glanced at Bill? The two guys behind Gates. Old Bill is an old man, and he has been rolling in the pile of deceitful lawyers for decades, but there is no additional performance. But that Paul? Allen glanced at Li Xuan from time to time, and the beard on his lips still trembled from time to time.

This Paul? Alan looked a little nervous.

Twenty percent of the equity is worth one million dollars, so the entire company is worth five million dollars. Obviously, this is impossible, and Microsoft is now the way it is, and on the face of it, it is estimated that half a million dollars is not worth it.

Li Xuan's million dollars, might as well say that half of it is used to buy equity, and more than half is used to buy Bill? Gates is behind the promise of interpersonal relationships.

Seeing that Li Xuan didn't speak, Bill? Gates couldn't help it first, and quietly explained: "Mr. Li, only selling you 20% of the equity is something we have carefully analyzed. We have just developed our own version of the UNIX working system Xenix, which is very promising and we have ......"

"Deal!" Li Xuan suddenly interrupted Bill? Gates' words.

"What?" Bill? Gates was stunned.

"I mean......" Li Xuan smiled: "Deal, one million dollars for two percent of equity." ”

What kind of xenix, Li Xuan doesn't understand, but it sounds high-end and high-grade. But what does this have to do with Li Xuan? As long as they say they can sell 20% of the shares.

Looking at the stunned three people in front of him, Li Xuan stood up with a smile and stood up to Bill? Gates stretched out his right hand and said, "Hi Terry, I wish us a happy cooperation!" ”

Bill? Gates stood up in a daze and stretched out his right hand.

After negotiating the equity sharing, the rest will be easy to do. Bill? Gates and Paul? Allen's equity was divided into 10% to Li Xuan, and the lawyers of both parties jointly drafted a contract, and Li Xuan read it once and signed it.

In this way, Li Xuan lost a million dollars in his pocket, but became the third partner of Microsoft.

A bunch of people have become their own people, and they are familiar with a lot of talking. After signing, when chatting, Bill? Gates looked at Li Xuan and said, "Xuan, when will you leave Seattle?" ”

"Leave? I'm planning to leave tomorrow and go to Hollywood in Los Angeles, you know, that's what I'm doing in Hong Kong. Li Xuan said with interest. Los Angeles is also on the west coast of the United States, but in southern California, but it's not too far by plane. Since you have been to the United States once, you can't afford not to go to Hollywood to see twice.

"So soon, I'm going to take you to Chirio in a few days. But the movie, I love it too, it's a wonderful thing. "Bill? Gates said regretfully.

"Chirio?" Li Xuan asked curiously.

"Haha." Paul? Alan laughed, "It's a little wasteland next to the Hood Canal, where we often have bonfires. ”

"Oh, that must be interesting, maybe you can take me next time you come to try it." Li Xuan nodded and said.

"Definitely!" Paul? Alan was obviously a little more sociable, and immediately nodded and said, "But, Xuan, when can we see your movie?" ”

"Haha, in the United States, you probably won't be able to see it for a short time. If you come to Hong Kong, I invite you to see it. And ......" Li Xuan paused and said, "What I want to see most is your movie." ”

"Our films?" Bill? Gates asked, confused.

"yes." Li Xuan nodded: "What do you think of a movie made entirely by a computer, which was completely shot in the virtual world?" ”

"Oh——, Xuan, your idea is crazy!" Bill? Gates looked at Li Xuan with wide eyes and said, "However, I like it, and besides, it's not impossible......" As he spoke, Bill? Gates fell into deep thought.

"With the development of technology, it is possible." Li Xuan said categorically: "It's just ......"

Bill? Gates was whetted by this twist and hurriedly asked, "But what?" ”

"But shouldn't you hire someone here who knows how to do administration first?" Li Xuan smiled as he gestured at the messy furnishings in the writing room.

"Hehe......"

Bill? Gates smiled awkwardly.

Li Xuan didn't expect things to go so smoothly, and he was in a very good mood all afternoon. In the evening, he also took Zhong Chuhong to attend a dinner held at Old Bill's house, and by the way, he also met the legendary strong woman Mary? Gates.

Before seeing this strong woman, Li Xuan thought Mary? Gates is a Hillary-esque figure. Unexpectedly, after meeting, the mother who loves charity was smiling all the time, and she couldn't see a trace of a strong woman at all, and she chatted happily with Li Xuan for a long time.

However, when Li Xuan returned to the hotel after leaving the old Bill's house, he reacted, this Mary? Gates's communication skills are really not a joke, and it made Li Xuan and the others have a good impression of her in a few hours.

After returning to the hotel for a good night's rest, Li Xuan and the two flew to Hollywood, Los Angeles the next day.

Chinese Cinema, Paramount Cinemas, Yuluo Stage, and the big Hollywood letter sign on the mountain, Li Xuan and the two did not let go of any of them, and they had a good time in Hollywood for a few days.

Especially the big letter sign in Hollywood, Li Xuan now knows that it is closed and not allowed to be approached. As for the reason for the closure, it sounds embarrassing, but in 1932, an actress committed suicide by jumping off a cliff on the "D" of this symbol because she could not withstand the blow of failure, so that people can only take pictures through telescopes on the observatory.

The two played until February 7, and finally had to return to Hong Kong. Because they have to prepare for the Spring Festival, and Li Xuan feels that he should have a very worried year this year!

Because, Li Xuan found out......

February 14, 1980, Western ** Festival;

February 15, 1980, Chinese New Year's Eve;

On February 16, 1980, the Spring Festival, the first day of the Lunar New Year, and even more, Zhong Chuhong was born at the age of 20! (To be continued.) )
