Chapter 430 [The bigwigs raised a huge sum of money with a few small talks at the dinner table]

After the end of the first day of today's conference, the organizers planned a grand dinner, and tomorrow the conference will continue, and today's main exchange is "T", which is the topic of science and technology, and the next two days will focus on "entertainment" and "design".

However, Luo Sheng will not show up to participate, and after attending today's dinner, he will leave Shencheng tomorrow morning.

"Mr. Luo. Your presentation was excellent, and global health is an area that I've been focusing on for a long time, and maybe we can do some collaboration. ”

During the dinner, Bill Gates, the former richest man in the world, shared a table with Luo Sheng, and he took the initiative to open the topic to communicate, obviously interested in life sciences.

"It's a great honor, but I didn't expect that the first person to respond to my call would be you, Mr. Bill." Luo Sheng smiled and said: "There is an opportunity to work together, but these tools must be integrated under one global health system. ”

At the same table are all tech tycoons, and everyone is also curious, the former richest man in the world and the richest man in the world today have expressed urgent concern for global health issues, which has also made them interested in this field.

"I very much agree with what you said in your speech, we have to be in a state of readiness, and the best example of this comes from preparation. For soldiers, they are always ready to go to war, and there are reservists who can greatly increase the number of people ready for war, for example, NATO has a mobile group that can move quickly, and there are many war games to predict, are the personnel already trained? ”

Gates looked at Luo Sheng and said methodically: "...... Do they know about fuel, refueling, the same radio frequencies and so on, and if so, then they are ready, and these are the things we should be prepared for in the face of the pandemic, but what are the key items? ”

Hearing this, Luo Sheng couldn't help but fall into deep thought, before he was not very good at judging whether Gates was polite or sincere, but after listening to his current words, Luo Sheng most likely judged that Gates was indeed not polite.

After a while, Luo Sheng was also serious, and after finishing his thinking, he looked at Bill and said clearly: "First, in poor countries and regions, there must be a well-developed health system, mothers can have children safely, children can be vaccinated, and we can also detect potential outbreaks at a very early stage. ”

After thinking for a while, he added: "Second, we need a systematic backup medical team, with a lot of trained professionals, ready to bring them to work in the epidemic areas where they specialize. ”

Gates nodded in agreement, and answered naturally: "You can use the military to cooperate with medical personnel, use the army's fast-moving characteristics to carry out logistics transportation and maintain security, and also need to use supercomputing to conduct some scenario simulations, not war games but germ games to see where the defense loopholes are." I remember that the last germ game was played in the United States in 2001, and it didn't go very smoothly, and now the germ gets 1 point and the human gets 0 points. ”

Luo Sheng said neatly: "Then let's cooperate, I don't hide it from Bill, and everyone, I plan to set up a life science private equity fund with a personal special fund of 5 billion US dollars." ”

Gates invited: "Good." ”

Luo Sheng immediately smiled and looked at the other bigwigs at the table: "Are you interested in participating?" ”

The other bigwigs at the table seemed to understand that the two richest men in the world had easily reached some kind of consensus, and after a while, Larry Page shrugged his shoulders and smiled happily: "Why not?" I'm going to give you $200 million to fund your life sciences fund. ”

Sergey Brin also said cheerfully: "I'll give 150 million dollars to support it." ”

In this way, Luo Sheng easily raised $2.2 billion with a sentence on the table, and Gates was the one who supported it, and he alone contributed $1 billion.

What's more, it's funding, not equity.

Speaking of which, Gates' personal investment fund currently holds 3% of the shares of Bluestar Technology Group, and has taken the last train to follow up with the investment before the IPO, and then increased its holdings some, and is now one of the major shareholders of Bluestar Technology.

The games of the rich are vividly reflected here.

Although there is no written agreement, this kind of gentleman's agreement is sometimes more effective than any written contract, not to mention that Luo Sheng is not inferior to their $2.2 billion, money is secondary, and interpersonal relationships may be more important than this money.

Now Luo Sheng wants to raise a sum of money is not too easy, many people at home and abroad are extremely keen to hand over money to him to toss, without him, until now the halo is still dazzling, Luo Sheng can always bring them higher returns.

Next, the bigwigs began to chat, most of them were talking about technology, future trends and other element topics to communicate, after all, they are all bigwigs in the technology industry, although there is competition with each other, but it does not hinder the smooth communication at the moment.

……

"Mr. Luo, can you accept a simple interview with Huaqing Online?"

At the end of the dinner, Luo Sheng was cut off by a beautiful female reporter on the way out.

When the female reporter saw it, she was overjoyed.

"The interview time ends at the door." Luo Sheng glanced at her and said, retracted his gaze and continued to walk forward.

When the female reporter heard this, she immediately seized the time to ask: "Based on the content of your TED talk in the afternoon, do you want to start a new layout in a new field, the field of life sciences?" ”

Luo Sheng: "That's right, at the dinner table just now, about 15 billion (2.2 billion U.S. dollars) has been raised. ”

The female reporter was caught off guard, she didn't expect the big guy to answer so simply, and what surprised her even more was that she raised a huge sum of 15 billion yuan for just a dinner?

However, time is pressing, and she doesn't have time to dwell on these, so she immediately asks the next question: "In recent years, the phenomenon of Chinese enterprises going out has seen a blowout development trend, does that mean that many enterprises actually want to go out and realize the layout of globalization strategy?" ”

Luo Sheng replied in a flat tone while walking: "It's just a few limited companies such as Huawei and Cote d'Azur showing blowout growth, what kind of growth is this?" In the early stages of the development of the CΓ΄te d'Azur, there were very few that could be recognized internationally. In fact, the most important thing to pay attention to is the problem of where our country is backward, our applied materials research is very backward, precision manufacturing is also very backward, such as lithography equipment, Chinese people basically can't play. ”

Reporter: "The core part can't be done?" ”

Luo Sheng: "People can make you so much profit with a lens, generally speaking, I mean be pragmatic, use other people's technology and compete with others, you are a fool to be someone else?" The core technology of the enterprise depends on itself, the so-called core technology money can not be bought and stolen, if it is your own core competitiveness, even if the flood and tsunami cause you will not be drowned, you will still stand after the tide recedes. ”

When the female reporter was about to conduct the third question-ask interview, Luo Sheng had already walked to the exit and said yes, and the simple interview was over, and the reporter's third question was not able to be asked.

His partner looked at the big guy in the distance and muttered to himself: "After Hua Wei, Luo Sheng won another big victory on behalf of the technology, industry and trade route, and the subtext of the big guy obviously negated Lianxiang's trade, industry and technology route. ”

The female reporter asked her partner: "Do you think the technology, industry and trade will win in the end, or will the trade, industry and technology?" Or can you go both ways? ”

The partner replied without thinking: "Do you still need to ask?" The answer is obvious, who is the richest man in the contemporary world? Taking a step back, even if the two routes can go on, there is no doubt that Luo Sheng's technology, industry and trade route chassis is more stable, don't believe it, let's see. ”
