0646 [The richest man in the world]
No matter which university it is, even if it is Harvard, Cambridge, or Yale, they all attach great importance to the donations of well-wishers.
It's not that these schools are short of money, it's that every donation further enhances the status of the school.
The more people donate, the more recognition of the school.
As one of the trustees of Harvard, Sherf has been looking for an opportunity.
Today, here's your chance.
Crunch!
The door was closed.
Du Yongxiao was invited into the office.
The office is bright and clean, and the dΓ©cor is very literary, except for the large mahogany bookshelves, which are Impressionist Van Gogh paintings.
Du Yongxiao took a general look, and then sat on the sofa at the invitation of Scherf.
Sherf asked someone to prepare coffee, and then he spoke: "Mr. Du, but I don't know why you want to donate to Haval this time?" β
"Oh, for my sister."
"Huh?"
"My sister is thirteen years old this year, but I have already helped her plan the direction of future development, which is to study in the United States, and the first thing she wants to enter is your school, Haval!"
Scherf smiled: "I'm sorry, Mr. Du! I see what you mean, but you may not be aware of our school rules, but our school has always attached great importance to student qualifications, especially in terms of learning, and we only admit students who are very good. To be precise, we are here to cultivate the cradle of the pride of the sky, and it is not that anyone can come in by spending some money casually! β
In the end, Scherf's expression was a little disdainful, and his tone was a little contemptuous.
He decided that Du Yongxiao was the kind of opportunistic nouveau riche who wanted to rely on money to pave the way for his sister.
Seeing Sherf's attitude change, Du Yongxiao was not angry, but just took a sip of coffee and said: "I'm sorry, Mr. Sherf, maybe my words were a little inappropriate just now-ββ first of all, I never thought of buying a Havard student for my sister; Secondly, I am absolutely sincere in donating to your school; Finally, don't you want to hear how much I donate? β
Sherf also picked up his coffee, crossed his legs and said, "I'm curious, Mr. Du, how much are you going to donate?" β
Sherf's expression was still very contemptuous, there were many people who came to Haval to donate, 35,000, he didn't pay attention to it at all, and some even donated millions.
Haval is not short of money!
So Sherf was not interested in Du Yongxiao's donation figures.
Du Yongxiao smiled slightly: "100,000 US dollars." β
Sherf smiled slightly and said disdainfully: "Yes, quite a lot!" β
Du Yongxiao continued: "100,000 US dollars is only the first amount, if my sister can be admitted to Harvard, or can come to your school to study, then I will donate the second amount - 1 million!" β
When Sherf heard this, his face scorned slightly, "It depends on her luck!" As I said, there are only a limited number of places available for Havalβ"
Du Yongxiao continued: "This is the second one, if my sister can successfully graduate from Harvard in the future, then I will donate another 10 million-ββ β
"Poof!" This time, Sherf couldn't sit still, almost squirted out the coffee he had drunk in his mouth, and looked at Du Yongxiao with wide eyes, "What did you say?" β
Du Yongxiao looked at Shelf with a surprised face, and his expression was calm, "I will donate three sums of money, 100,000, 1 million, and 10 million!" It's that simple! β
"Are you telling the truth?" Sherf put down his coffee and looked at Du Yongxiao in disbelief.
In this era, 10 million US dollars is not a small amount, and when converted into Hong Kong dollars, it is more than 70 million!
Although Haval is the world's top school, it is rare to donate tens of millions of dollars in this era.
"Don't worry, everything I said is true, if you don't believe it, I can sign a contract with your school-ββ there are words to prove it, it's always okay, right?" Du Yongxiao said lightly.
"Oh God, you're such a good guy!" Sherf's expression changed greatly, and he got up and covered Du Yongxiao's hand excitedly: "I believe what you said is true!" Of course the contract can be signed, it's not that I don't believe you, it's because of the time, yes, God, a lot of times it's easy to forget things after a long time, isn't it? β
Sherf was very happy.
As one of the top ten directors of the school, he has always wanted to climb to the front, but unfortunately, he has never had the opportunity, and now the opportunity has finally arrived, if he can really raise 10 million US dollars for Haval, it will be a great achievement.
I was very excited to think about it, but immediately Scherf became vigilant again, and looked at Du Yongxiao carefully, young, too young! Such a young guy can't really have that much money, right? Did I meet a liar, or a madman?
"Ahem, I'm sorry, Mr. Du, I haven't asked for advice after talking about it for so longβwhat kind of business does Your Excellency do, or where do you get there?"
Who is Du Yongxiao, you can know what he is thinking when you look at Scherf's expression.
"Oh, sorry, I forgot to introduce it just now!" Du Yongxiao said and reached into his arms, took out a beautiful business card holder, clicked, opened it, took out a bronzing business card, and handed it to Scherf with an elegant gesture.
Sherf hurriedly got up and took it with both hands, glancing at it-ββ
"Phoenix Pharmaceutical, Chairman -ββ Du Yongxiao!"
Phoenix Pharmaceutical?
Sherf's eyes rolled, and his mind searched for it.
Seeing this, Du Yongxiao reminded him: "Viagra, viagra!" β
Syllable!
Sherf almost fell on the couch.
He uses this medicine often!
β¦β¦
Viagra!
That is, Viagra is popular in the United States, which is definitely a big thing.
When they first landed in the United States, Du Yongxiao and Rockefeller planned all kinds of propaganda, including Du Yongxiao's strategy of "rural areas surrounding cities" and "toilets surrounding pharmacies".
The meaning is simple-ββ
The countryside surrounds the city is to advertise and post advertisements in inconspicuous places in major states in the United States, which is the kind of telephone poles and wall advertisements, commonly known as "dog skin plaster advertisements".
Toilets surround pharmacies, that is, advertise in men's toilets and pharmacies, which are the most frequent places for men who have unspeakable secrets.
Rockefeller scoffed at these "strategies" of Du Yongxiao, thinking that they were too joking and not serious!
But it turns out that these strategies are all right!
Du Yongxiao's advertisements completely helped Viagra open up the market, and the sales soared from zero to millions, tens of millions!
Rockefeller couldn't laugh, he didn't understand why Du Yongxiao knew so much, as if he had practiced, and then he threw himself into the five bodies that Du Yongxiao admired.
Of course, Du Yongxiao would not tell him that these were truths that the Chinese people practiced in the previous life.
Viagra exploded in the United States.
As a well-known "coward in bed", Sherf didn't even dare to go home before taking Viagra.
Every time he got home, his wife would ridicule him as a "three-second man", and more often he needed to be assisted with props to complete the task of paying public rations.
In order to pay the public rations, Sherf racked his brains, but the final result was that he changed from a "three-second man" to a "soft man", which was even more useless.
Sherf's life during that time was in dire straits, and it was at this time that he learned about Viagra.
The first time he took it, he was full of vitality and rejuvenated!
It can be said that the current Mr. Sherf is a big fan of Viagra!
After benefiting from the benefits, Sherf began to investigate how the drug was born.
If you don't check it, you don't know how to do it, and you will be shocked when you check it.
This drug turned out to be a successful investment and development by a Chinese in London, England.
And in order to save men around the world, this Chinese even established Phoenix Pharmaceutical-ββ and has branches in London, England and Los Angeles, USA.
After learning the truth, Sherf was grateful to this amazing Chinese! Think he's a reborn parent! And secretly swore that if he saw this "benefactor" one day, he would be grateful to him and perform their traditional Chinese bowing ceremony.
At this moment, Sherf looked at Du Yongxiao in disbelief, his mouth was a little knotted, "You, you, what are you talking about?" Are you the big boss of Phoenix Pharmaceutical? Is that the Chinese who developed Viagra? β
Du Yongxiao nodded, "Yes, you can call to confirm!" Or call Mr. Rockefeller directly! β
Sherf was about to go crazy with excitement, clenched his fists fiercely, and said to Du Yongxiao: "Thank you, thank you very much!" β
"Uh, thank me for what?" Seeing his strange appearance, Du Yongxiao couldn't help but ask, "Is it thanks to me for donating too much money?" β
"No, I'm going to thank you for inventing Viagra, which is Viagra! Yes, God, you have saved countless men, and you are the God of men! Sherf said gratefully.
Du Yongxiao was stunned, he didn't want the Mr. Scherf in front of him to be a "coward".
In fact, in the United States, many men do not shy away from being good at certain aspects, especially these high-level intellectuals, who will leak out many of their thoughts and opinions in order to express their feelings at the moment, and Sherf is like this.
As if feeling that just saying it was not enough to express his gratitude to Du Yongxiao, Sherf stood up abruptly, and then bowed ninety degrees to Du Yongxiao, and said: "You Chinese often say that when you receive the grace of a drop of water, you should be rewarded by a spring, and here I thank you for your help to me!" No, it's a help to men all over America! β
Du Yongxiao was stunned, and for the first time felt that this old man was very cute.
Next, the two sides began to formally sign the donation contract.
According to what Du Yongxiao said before, he will donate three sums of money for his sister, which are 100,000, 1 million, and 10 million US dollars.
Sign and draw!
Black and white, all of them.
When the news spread, outside the school trustee's office, those people closed their mouths in surprise.
"That Chinese wants to donate 10 million to Haval?"
"Haha, there must be some conspiracy!"
They didn't believe that Du Yongxiao could come up with so much money, and they didn't believe that Sherf's unlucky guy could be so lucky.
In particular, when other school directors heard the news, they scoffed-ββ
"Sherf, this guy wants to turn over by a Chinese? Dream! β
But then news came out -
The donor Du Yongxiao turned out to be the president of Phoenix Pharmaceutical!
The owner of Phoenix Medicine is a well-known viagra when it comes to health care products!
For a moment, everyone was shocked.
The school directors were dumb too.
And at this time-ββ
In the office, Du Yongxiao and Sherf didn't know what was going on, how many people were shocked by the agreement they signed, and Du Yongxiao's identity.
Du Yongxiao finished drinking the coffee, put it down, took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth, and said to Sherf with a smile: "Mr. Sherf, now that we are done with serious business, now I have a small request, I don't know if you can agree?" β
"Absolutely! Dear Du, just say it! Sherf looked very happy.
Yes, now he is really happy, and hopes that he can help Du Yongxiao, even if it is a small effort.
"Since that's the case, I have the courage to speak, I want to find someone in your school, but your school is too big, and I don't know where to start!"
"Looking for someone?"
"Yes!"
"What's his name?" Sherf got up and said, "I can call the school's admissions office, and yes, if there is his name, or residential address, you can look up his enrollment file!" β
Du Yongxiao smiled and said lightly: "His name is -ββ Bill Gates!" β
β¦β¦
That's right!
This time, Du Yongxiao came to Boston and entered Harvard University, the main reason is to look for the future technology tycoon, Microsoft President - Bill Gates!
As for Du Yongxiao's donation of money to help her sister go to school, it was secondary.
For Du Yongxiao, his sister's future studies are important, but they are second to Bill Gates.
What's more, if his sister Du Yongmei really graduated from Harvard University in the future, then Du Yongxiao's donation of 10 million will be wool from Microsoft!
In a word, this time Du Yongxiao has to find Bill Gates and take him down.
According to Du Yongxiao's last life, Gates was born in 1955 and grew up in Seattle with his two older sisters. Their father was a lawyer in Seattle. Gates' late mother was a school teacher and a trustee of the University of Washington.
Gates attended a public elementary school in Seattle and a private Lakeside Middle School. There he discovered his interest in software and began computer programming at the age of 13.
In 1973, this year, Gates was admitted to Harvard University, where he became good friends with Steve Ballmer, the future CEO of Microsoft.
During his time at Harvard, Gates developed a version of the BASIC programming language for the first microcomputer.
In his junior year of college, Gates voluntarily dropped out of Harvard and devoted all his energy to the Microsoft company he founded.
Guided by the belief that computers will be the most important tool in every home and office, Bill Gates and his friends began developing software for personal computers.
Eventually, Microsoft became the world's leading technology company, and by 1987, Bill Gates himself became the first billionaire in the PC industry of all time. In 1996, his total personal assets exceeded $18 billion. In 1997, it reached 34 billion. In 98, it exceeded the 50 billion mark, and it is natural to become the "richest man in the world".
For Du Yongxiao, since he came to this world, the future "richest man in the world" must not be Bill Gates, or any Soros, Warren Buffett, let alone Elon Musk, who did not drive the "rocket-ββ
In order to be worthy of this golden finger -
The richest man in the world in the future can only be him-
Du Yongxiao!
