Chapter 372: Coincidental
If Musk were not such a person, Lu Yuan would still have other options, and there would be no need to cooperate with Musk. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
However, Musk is now one of the top richest people in his own right, and his fame is very great, and it is by no means something that ordinary people can say they can meet, but fortunately, although the hard-core company is a rising star, it has created too many wealth myths in this year, and Kevin, who is the president of the North American region of the hard-core company, wants to talk to Musk, which is not impossible to do.
Previously, the media exposed that Kevin got an annual salary of 85 million US dollars in a hard-core company, although he is not the first on the global list, it is enough to reach the second level and become an emerging rich man in one fell swoop. Whether it is with Kevin's identity or his wealth, inviting Musk as a guest is not too difficult to do, but according to Lu Yuan's request, this matter should be hidden and not seen by the media.
There are too many media and too many paparazzi in the United States, these paparazzi are not just staring at those Hollywood stars, the lives of these rich tycoons are also stared at, especially Musk and Kevin, the exposure of the two in the media can be regarded as hot this year, and there are paparazzi looking for their whereabouts 24 hours a day.
Four days later, in the Los Angeles suburb manor where Lu Yuan lived, a low-key business car slowly drove in, and a person familiar to Americans walked down, it was Elon Musk in a gray casual suit.
He is 45 years old this year, but his complexion is very energetic, and his energy is in the prime of life, as if he has inexhaustible struggle energy all over his body.
He got out of the car, glanced around with a little curiosity, and then withdrew his gaze and put it on the oncoming Kevin.
"I really didn't expect you to have a manor here."
"I just picked up a bargain from Colony Capital."
Kevin didn't say how much the estate costed, and it seemed that he still picked up a bargain in his words, but no matter how cheap it is, it is a huge amount for the super-rich and for the average rich.
Of course, Musk is very aware of this, and he also knows that with the current capital of the person opposite, he may not be able to buy this manor, but he didn't ask, and followed Kevin towards the mansion in front.
After welcoming Kevin into the hall of the mansion and sitting down, and the attendant serving the drink, Musk stared at Kevin with his eyes, "Mr. Kevin, I don't know what you asked me to meet this time?" ”
Those who know Musk well know that he is a workaholic, who likes to work until the early hours of the morning before going home to sleep, and then goes to work at seven o'clock the next morning.
The reason why Kevin, who had never talked to him, agreed to come to his manor mansion this time was because of something that Kevin threw out.
For these things, Musk had to make a trip, otherwise how could he inexplicably agree to Kevin's invitation.
“……”
Kevin was about to answer, but suddenly stood up and said behind Musk's back: "Boss, you're here." ”
Musk was startled, and when he looked back, he saw a young man about twenty-seven or eighteen years old walking slowly, with an obvious Asian appearance, but he was someone he had never seen before.
Such a person, why does Kevin call him the boss?
Thinking of this, Musk was thoughtful, and he also understood that the capital of the hard-core company is registered from offshore Viking, and the shares are cross-controlled by multiple companies, and the company's property rights are ambiguous, and it is difficult to find the major shareholder who ultimately controls the company.
Could it be that this young man is the majority shareholder behind the backstage of a hard-core company?
Musk frowned, it was hard for him to imagine that a twenty-seven or eighteen-year-old young man was actually the majority shareholder of the behind-the-scenes control of a hard-core company, which was too young, or was the other party a person with a chaebol background?
Without waiting for Musk to continue to think clearly, Lu Yuan had already come to Musk and stretched out his hand: "Hello, Mr. Musk, I have heard of your name for a long time, and it is a pity that I can only see you today." ”
"Hello."
Musk has always been straightforward, many people say that he looks at the world from the perspective of an engineer and advises him to correct it, but he doesn't think so, he doesn't have to think about things that can't be figured out, he stretched out his hand and shook hands with Lu Yuan.
"Haven't said my name yet, Oswell Nevans."
Lu Yuan naturally does not speak his Chinese name, he has the identity of many countries around the world to use, and at this time he used the identity of this American.
"Mr. Nevins, I don't know ...... you"
"Mr. Musk, I wonder how you feel about the information I passed on to you?"
Interrupting Musk's questioning very impolitely, Lu Yuan sat on the sofa casually, his eyes shining directly at him.
Hearing this, Musk didn't talk nonsense and nodded: "Not bad, there is considerable value." ”
Lu Yuan smiled slightly: "If there is no value that can be valued by Mr. Musk, I will not accept Kevin's invitation to come here." ”
Kevin stood aside and didn't sit down, as if he had become a waiter.
Although Musk didn't care much about the details of human relations, he also noticed the difference in Lu Yuan's identity at this time. This is not simple, Kevin is the president of North America, and he is a very powerful executive, such an executive is placed in any company, even in the face of the major shareholders who control the company, it is not normal to be so fearful and willing to be a service person.
"I know that Mr. Musk has a lot of questions in his mind, but I can explain it now, the information given to Mr. Musk, of course, is only partial, and there are more valuable information that has not been shown, I wonder if Mr. Musk is willing to cooperate?"
"Cooperation?"
Musk pondered for a moment and raised his head: "To be honest, the information you gave is of great value, and there is no problem with cooperation or anything, but I don't know what kind of cooperation you want to do?" ”
Musk's promise to cooperate was not unexpected by Lu Yuan, in the final analysis, SpaceX Space Exploration Technology Company has a very high level of cooperation with NASA, many engineers of SpaceX are from NASA, NASA has supported a lot of technical information, and the US government has the idea of supporting SpaceX to reduce the cost of spacecraft launches in the future.
Cooperation with Musk's SpaceX company will inevitably be known by the U.S. government, but in this world, no matter if you cooperate with any space technology company, it will inevitably be known to the local government, because space technology itself comes from the government's space agencies and military agencies, and it is impossible to say that it is not implicated.
It's just that Lu Yuan doesn't care much about this.
From the beginning of its birth to the present, hard-core companies have been investigated and monitored by government departments such as FBI, CIA, NSA, etc., and this is only the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Russia, and China have also done these things. However, the sad thing is that they want to monitor hardcore companies and dig deep secrets, but they don't know that they themselves are being counter-monitored by hardcore companies.
They had no idea that there was an electronic ghost in this world.
It was Lu Yuan who casually threw a few baits to make the Americans suspicious, and it was always impossible to verify the truth.
The content of the cooperation with SpaceX, its technical information does not involve much military application, at least in more than ten years, it is difficult to convert it into military weapons, Lu Yuan threw this thing, can not make Americans feel like they have been blown up, but it is enough to attract Musk, an entrepreneur who yearns for human interstellar immigration.
Musk dreams of achieving the plan of human interstellar migration and colonization of alien planets, he is very different from other chaebols and tycoons, others make money to enjoy and make more money, he makes money largely just to realize his dreams, and many of the companies and plans he invests in are high-tech and high-tech, rather than simple short-term projects with great benefits.
And his goal coincides with Lu Yuan.
