San Francisco, USA.

Santa Clara Valley, commonly known as Silicon Valley, is so famous that many people don't know her original name.

Gu Siwei is here now, sitting in a grilled steak restaurant and feasting, holding a grilled steak with both hands, and eating it with a mouth full of oil.

Gu Siwei originally thought that Chinese food had reached the ceiling, but after eating this steak, Gu Siwei felt that the United States was really not a food desert, not to mention anything else, just talking about the roast beef in front of him, Gu Siwei was quite satisfied, it was really delicious, fat and juicy, and the aroma directly caused the mouth to burst into the mouth after one bite.

I have been to the United States many times, and every time Gu Siwei is like in China decades later, fries and fried chicken, or at most a roadside shop.

There are also steaks, but the steak, hey, forget it, don't talk about it, the taste is really not good, but today's grilled steak really amazed Gu Siwei.

"Boss!"

Ma Youpeng hurriedly walked in from outside, and after coming in, he sat opposite Gu Siwei.

"Youpeng, come and try the steak here, it's really good, Americans can't do anything else, this steak is delicious......" Gu Siwei pushed the steak plate in front of him in front of Ma Youpeng.

This is not Gu Siwei has eaten, but all the ordered meals are together, everyone who wants to eat what to take, the usual restaurant, is not a particularly high-end place, Americans are not so particular, here is naturally more relaxed, some people say that Chinese are noisy everywhere, but Gu Siwei feels that the Americans here are not much better.

"Boss, our American patent is down...... Both games have come down, and the IP lawyers here are really efficient."

Ma Youpeng first told Gu Siwei the good news he just received.

Of course, the most important thing is the United States, and the first one to attack the west is also the United States, for example, the first game he designed this time was the United States, and he was looking for an intellectual property lawyer who specialized in applying for this.

Well, you can also copy it, it's the game of pinball, Gu Siwei has already asked Ma Youpeng to apply for a patent, and of course, it also includes several trademarks or something.

Now the trademark has not come down, but the design patent of the game has come down. One is to play pinball, which is more suitable for the current hardware, and is essentially similar to the pong game, but it is more durable.

There is also the famous "Tetris", this thing Gu Siwei doesn't know if the current hardware can be realized, but at this time the registration must be noted, because Lao Gu doesn't know when this thing was invented.

In short, the first strike is stronger, and the second strike suffers.

"Well, it's hard work," Gu Siwei said.

"Boss, Joe Hawkins is coming soon, he's about ten minutes away from here," Ma said.

Gu Siwei hummed, replied to him that it was too early, and motioned for him to continue eating.

It is not yet the appointed time, based on Gu Siwei's understanding of the Americans, they are not even a few minutes early, if they are replaced by Spaniards, it is agreed that it will arrive at ten o'clock, and if someone appears at half past ten, it will be considered punctual, and it is normal for people to come at eleven o'clock, and even as long as someone appears, even if it is two hours late, it is considered a normal phenomenon.

Ma Youpeng had just taken the steak and was about to take a bite, when he remembered another thing, so he put the steak down.

Gu Siwei smiled when he saw it: "Hurry up and eat, if you have anything to do, you can wait until you finish eating, don't worry, the sky won't fall."

Gu Siwei is quite appreciative of Ma Youpeng's work attitude, but appreciation is appreciation, Gu Siwei is really a little worried about playing with his life, I am afraid that this person will die young, then it will be troublesome, let Gu Siwei go where to find such a handy person.

Ma Youpeng smiled when he heard this, and began to eat the steak with his head down.

"It's really good, the gravy is very rich, and it's still a good location to make a good restaurant, if it gets downstairs in the company, I don't know how hot it will be," Ma Youpeng said.

Gu Siwei listened to it and laughed: "Don't keep thinking about the company's affairs, concentrate on eating."

Saying that, Gu Siwei motioned to the secretary who came in with Ma Youpeng to eat too.

Ma Youpeng is not slow to eat, and he finished eating in less than five minutes.

After eating, he wiped his mouth with a tissue, and talked to Gu Siwei about the company.

This time I came not only to interview Joe Hawkins and others, but also to form EA.

It's very easy to set up EA, Gu Siwei has a ticket in his pocket, and he comes to Silicon Valley to start a business with US dollars, who is in trouble?

There are difficulties and there are no difficulties.

The place where there is no difficulty is that you have money in your pocket, and you can take the money directly with a wave of your hand.

Gu Siwei doesn't consider what the current housing price is, anyway, it is impossible to lose money when buying a house at this time, although the current Silicon Valley is famous, but it is not the Silicon Valley in the future, no matter how you look at the housing prices at this time, it is impossible to take off, and the IT industry at this time is not as violent as it will be in the future.

It's only been two years since the name Silicon Valley was proposed, and how can you say that housing prices are high at this time.

In addition, at this time, there is no shadow in the personal electronics consumer market, and most of the large companies concentrated here are now, and there are not a few in total.

At this time, the advantage of Silicon Valley is the resources of nearby universities, such as Stanford, the University of California, Berkeley, and a number of other schools.

At this time, the Silicon Valley was not the Silicon Valley where Zhongshan innovative enterprises gathered.

So Gu Siwei, who ran here, took a look, good guy, the housing prices in Silicon Valley are actually not as good as the housing prices in downtown San Francisco, and Americans are so disrespectful to the real estate industry in Silicon Valley?

So what else is there to say, buy it!

So in the past two days in the United States, Gu Siwei waved his hand and bought a luxury house first.

I forgot to mention that there is no shadow of the mansion, to be exact, Gu Siwei bought a piece of land, not far from Stanford University, on the outskirts of Menlo Park, and bought a piece of land of about nine acres, which is still a semi-wasteland at the moment, which can be used to build a house.

As for how big a house to build, the Americans don't care about you, as long as you pay the property tax, they don't have a problem with you building a palace on this land.

The house has not yet been built, but the four dimensions of the earth are occupied.

The next thing is the office location, Gu Siwei originally only brought a little money over, ready to rent an office building, and arranged EA, but when he came here, he saw that no, the real estate in Silicon Valley had to be done, so he temporarily decided to buy land.

As soon as Gu Siwei decided, Ma Youpeng was blind in a hurry, and he wanted to allocate funds from the Hong Kong market, and he had to negotiate with the seller.

At present, only three plots of land have been completed, one of which has a house on it, but it is not an office building, but an old factory, covering a large area, a T-shaped building, the overall floor height is about nine meters, and the first floor is about 800 square meters.

There are also two small annexes next to it, but these two are very small, each one is similar to a small villa, with one floor more than 200 square meters and two floors of about 400 square meters.

This is Gu Siweiding's EA office, and now it has begun to be renovated, and Gu Siwei is not ready to make it too complicated, Lao Mei + entrepreneurship, it should be rough in the rough.

So whitewash the walls, put a desk on the floor, lay the floor with a carpet, and install a lamp overhead, isn't it all alive?

At most, at most, air conditioning is installed, and in the summer, it is beautiful to make money for Lao Gu.

There is an office point, and the rest is the difficulty, that is, to recruit people, and the first to recruit is this, Joe Hawkins, the EA manager that Ma Youpeng has always recommended.

This work experience is still quite rich, and it is a bit nonsense to say that he is experienced in his twenties when he is in other industries, but in the emerging technology industry, especially in this era, someone like Joe Hawkins is really an old man in the industry.

There is also a professional manager recommended by a headhunter, a professional manager named Ron Hayek.

This person is not engaged in IT, and he has no background in the IT industry, but he has a good sales performance, as for whether it is true or not, Gu Siwei does not know.

Why look for Ron Howjek?

One is that Gu Siwei doesn't believe in the so-called character at all, EA can't let Joe Hawkins control it alone, if that's the case, he didn't have the intention of rebelling, and he would have the power in his hands.

The second is, Gu Siwei doesn't believe very much, a person who is good at technology can also do a good job in business management, of course, there are also such people, such as Qiao Gang Leader, Musk, but how many such people can be, even if there are, Gu Siwei has no way to use others, people are dragons, how can they nest in Gu Siwei's pool.

With the decentralization of power, each focusing on itself, coupled with a complete financial system, Gu Siwei believes that most things will be in order, of course, as the boss, Gu Siwei is impossible to let go.

Therefore, Gu Siwei's other trick is that he came up with it himself, the copyright of all games is not in EA, but in DreamWorks, and DreamWorks is a company controlled by Marvel, Dabidou Technology, and Google Real Estate.

As for Marvel, equity is more complicated, and there are more sources of capital, on the bright side, Gu Siwei only accounts for 11%, but no one will think that after he loses 11%, others can control Marvel.

Ma Youpeng and Gu Siwei talked about his preliminary plan, the plan is naturally to build a new office building in Silicon Valley, not all companies are large companies, and they can buy office buildings from the ground, so Gu Siwei fell in love with the office leasing industry.

Gu Siwei listened and pondered while listening, and occasionally turned around and saw Ma Youpeng's secretary picking up the beans on the plate with a fork.

I don't know why, Gu Siwei's mind flashed, and he remembered another little game - Pacman!

Suddenly, Gu Siwei slapped his head: "Oh, why didn't I think of this."

Suddenly, Ma Youpeng and the little secretary were shocked.
