Chapter Twenty-Six: Back to the Heat

"Now let's move on to the reporter's question session." The head of the press announced.

Gao Yue on the stage did not leave, after the person in charge of the press conference finished speaking, the reporters in the audience raised their hands one by one, and Gao Yue pointed to the female reporter sitting in the middle wing with a professional smile.

The reporter immediately stood up, held the microphone, and said, "Hello! Miss gao. I am Liu Xiao, a special reporter of NetEase News. Miss Gao, when will your company's new products be released? What kind of product is it? ”

"At present, the company's main task is the research and development of real-time online mutual translation 2.0 and the construction of the headquarters, and the research and development of new products are not considered for the time being!" Gao Yue replied.

"Hello, Miss Gao. I'm Yang Hong, a special correspondent for Tencent News. At present, your company has accumulated hundreds of millions of users, have you considered entering the field of social networking? ”

"The company has reached a strategic partnership with the social giant Facebook, the company will not consider entering the social field, XlouS is a technology company, we are only engaged in technology research and development!" After Gao Yue finished speaking, she pointed to a foreign reporter.

"Hello, Miss Takatsuki. I'm Spears, a special correspondent for the Wall Street Journal? Consna. Does your company have any plans to introduce investment and IPO in the near future? ”

"XlouS is currently operating healthily and is not short of funds, so it has not considered introducing capital, and has no intention of going public for the time being."

After the press conference, XlouS, which had faded out of people's field of vision in recent times, became a hot topic of discussion again.

The two main news quickly occupied the front pages of major domestic Internet media, and a series of data in units of 100 million was staggering.

"! Is XlouS going against the rhythm of the sky? 5 billion dollars to build a headquarters! Is this the rhythm of the bar with Apple? With so much money? ”

"The news upstairs is outrageous. People do have money, but people are poor and only have money left. I'll do the math with you, take a look! Study hard! 240 million paying users, about 15 soft girl coins per month, 3.6 billion revenue a month, more than 40 billion a year, and do you think the paying users who translate online online will stay at 240 million after a year? ”

"Upstairs is right! Madea is simply a money printing machine, no, the money printing machine is a hair, it's just a money grab, no, no, it's faster than a money grab! However, instant online mutual translation is indeed an artifact, the baby said that he can no longer do without it after using it, as an illiterate party who does not know English, my mother is no longer worried that I can't understand what foreigners say when I go on Instagram! ”

In contrast, investors are more eager than anyone else, after XlouS announced the real-time online translation of various data, Wall Street market analysts on the company's valuation rose by 20 billion again, valuing 150 billion US dollars, XlouS was listed as an A+++ key investment project, listed as an excellent investment project. In the past, many companies were listed as A+++ by Wall Street, and those companies basically became giant companies with a market value of not less than $150 billion, such as Microsoft, Facebook, Google, Tencent and other Internet technology companies or energy giants.

Although Gao Yue said at the press conference that there is no plan to go public and introduce investment, this has not discouraged the enthusiasm of investors, on the contrary, the enthusiasm of investors has increased dramatically, and the more the CEO of the company says so, the more the potential of the company is expressed. There are not many companies in the world that can not bow their heads in front of capital, which is the confidence of investors, and Shunfeng Express, which is known as never listed in China, eventually had to bow to capital, and finally became a listed company, I believe that XlouS will eventually be the same.

In addition, after the press conference, the other two waves of people were not calm, these two waves of people are builders from all over the world and the Pearl River Delta and Hainan China Merchants Bureau.

The entry of large companies in the 100 billion dollar level, especially the announcement of XlouS to spend no less than 5 billion US dollars to build its headquarters, is an unimaginable wealth for the development of the region and the tax revenue generated, and the settlement of XlouS is definitely a key concern of the two provincial governments.

In particular, the Wanning Municipal Government, when learning the news, was surprised and delighted, surprised that the city is not too competitive, you must know that two years ago, the total value of the market was only more than 80 billion yuan, and the joy is that this large company only named Wanning City and expressed its intention to choose here. Obviously, there is no definite outcome, and even the city government is restless, knowing that this is a large private company with a valuation of hundreds of billions of dollars.

At this moment, Ren Hong didn't know that the news officially announced by XlouS had touched the hearts of groups of people. After the team he asked was successfully assembled, he began to work on the development of the 2.0 version of the instant online mutual translation. Ren Hong is not only the chairman of the board of directors of XlouS company, but also the position of the company's chief technology officer and CTO, Ren Hong is obsessed with technology, and the position of chief engineer is naturally his.

On the day of the press conference, Ren Hong did not show up, and Gao Yue was responsible for the company's daily operations, which was completely sufficient. In addition to the development of the 2.0 version of the instant online translation, there is a more important matter, which is the design of the company's headquarters, which has always been on his mind.

In the past few days, his main focus has been on the design of the company's headquarters. In his mind, the company's headquarters would consist of five separate buildings, each with a five-letter outline: XlouS

This is undoubtedly a crazy idea.

"This is too difficult, sir." X' and 'S' are not on the same level of difficulty as the other three buildings, especially the 'S' shape. A famous foreign architect invited by Ren Hong looked at the 3D model on the computer and shook his head and said, "Wouldn't it be better to let XlouS lie on the ground directly?" The difficulty won't be so staggering. ”

"No, no, no! Mr. Cullen. Ren Hong fiddled with his body language with his hands, "Listen, what I want is an XlouS who stands tall on this planet!" And not lying down XlouS! It's unlucky, isn't it? ”

"I'm sorry, Mr. Sherus, I didn't mean that." Cullen said, looking at the 3D modeling on the computer, he still said: "It is still too difficult for the two buildings on the periphery to render the effect in the concept map in reality, which is not in line with the principles of mechanics at all, especially the 'S' shape, the building material in today's world, the core stress point in the middle of the building cannot withstand the pressure of the whole building!" ”

Cullen looked at Ren Hong's gaze and said without hesitation: "It's too slender, the curved arc is too big, this can't be achieved at all, your requirements are too harsh Mr. Sherus!" ”

The two looked at each other, and there was an atmosphere of silence for a moment, Ren Hong looked away and turned to the computer monitor, looking at the 'S' shaped building in the rendering and was silent.

XlouS had to be erected, he thought to himself.
