Chapter 540 Be your own gravedigger
Seeing Lu Yiming's reaction, Bill Gates became even more convinced that there must be something fishy about Lu Yiming's technology park.
Therefore, Microsoft must invest!
Only then can we legitimately deploy manpower and keep a close eye on it, lest this dangerous guy in front of us take away Microsoft's hometown if we are not careful.
"Yes, Lu, we are friends. Since you are determined to do this, if I don't give you some money to support you, is it still considered a friend?"
While talking, Bill Gates stared at Lu Yiming unblinkingly, always paying attention to the changes in Lu Yiming's expression. For him, he always likes to take one step and think three steps, and he never believes in any promises.
.As long as Lu Yiming shows any hesitation and entanglement, there must be something wrong in his heart. Lu Yiming must not let him start this software industrial park!
And Lu Yiming himself planned to drag Bill Gates into the pit. Now that everything is going according to plan, how can he have any emotional fluctuations? He said expressionlessly: "Of course, we are friends,
If you really want to invest, of course I will not stop you, just like we have cooperated so many times before, I believe our future cooperation will be very pleasant."
After receiving Lu Yiming's affirmative reply, Bill Gates' doubts were completely dispelled this time. As long as Lu Yiming allows him to invest and have a certain say, he believes that relying on the strength of Microsoft and his own strong control ability, Lu Yiming will never be able to do anything.
Hua Lai. After all, after being the world's richest man for so many years, what kind of monsters and monsters have he not seen? Bill Gates is still confident in dealing with a coward like Lu Yiming.
"Dear Lu, I knew we would be a very good partner. How much money do you plan to spend to develop this software industrial park?"
Lu Yiming stretched out four fingers and said: "Four hundred million dollars."
When Bill Gates heard that it was just this little, he immediately became happy and said immediately: "Then I will also spend 200 million US dollars. You Xia people seem to like the number six very much."
Bill Gates knew very well that if Lu Yiming offered 400 million, if Microsoft also offered 400 million, it would be suspected of usurping the guest. Lu Yiming may not agree. But if it takes less, it will not have enough say, so,
Two hundred million is a reasonable number.
When Lu Yiming heard this, he immediately gave a thumbs up to Bill Gates and said: "Six six six!"
Seeing that Lu Yiming agreed, Bill Gates was completely relieved, and the two started talking and laughing again.
As long as he doesn't touch Microsoft's cheese, Lu Yiming will still be his good friend to Bill Gates.
After returning from shopping, Bill Gates' bodyguard and driver escorted him back to the hotel in a car. After they left, Li Yiwen found Lu Yiming and asked curiously: "How was your discussion?"
Lu Yiming said with a smile: "I talked with Bill Gates. I will provide 400 million US dollars, and he will provide 200 million US dollars to build a new software industrial park in Zhonghai to support the development of the software industry in Xiaguo, especially to cultivate outstanding talents."
Programmers, relying on the Microsoft platform, enrich Microsoft's software ecosystem. As Microsoft becomes stronger, we can also cultivate talents, a win-win situation."
Li Yiwen said: "You also want to help Microsoft enrich its software ecosystem? Are you so kind?"
Lu Yiming immediately defended himself and said, "What are you talking about? I have always treated people with sincerity, okay? Everything I said to Bill Gates just now is true and cannot be true anymore."
Li Yiwen said disdainfully: "I still don't understand you? Every time I talk about win-win, it's because you want to win twice."
Then, he said enthusiastically: "So what is the plan this time? There are no outsiders anyway, so tell me about it."
Lu Yiming said: "PC-side operating systems and software cannot compete with Microsoft. Now that domestic piracy is rampant, I can't spend a lot of money just to make operating software for my own entertainment, right? Moreover, Microsoft was founded back then.
When it was launched, IBM was backing it, but I didn’t have the conditions.”
After emphasizing the difficulties, Lu Yiming began to express his inner plan: "As for me, I have no other idea. I just want to start a software industrial park, recruit talents, cultivate talents, and then focus on smartphones."
Li Yiwen was shocked after hearing this: "Smartphone? Is that the project you have always wanted to do before?"
Lu Yiming nodded and said: "This project is definitely the top priority in the future, so we must start the preliminary technical preparations now."
Software research and development requires a lot of investment. If Lu Yiming wants to make a smartphone, his opponent will naturally be Apple.
Although Apple is suppressed by Microsoft in the United States, its software research and development foundation is very solid. If Lu Yiming wants to be the first to come first, he must catch up.
Li Yiwen said with a smile: "If Bill Gates knew your true thoughts, he would probably want to twist your head off."
Lu Yiming spread his hands and said, "He has to spend money to dig his own grave. What can I do? I have persuaded him, twice!"
On the weekend, the fire feast officially begins.
The grand gathering that affected countless wealthy people in Zhonghai attracted the attention of countless people. It can even be said that most of the eyes of the entire Xia Kingdom business community were focused here.
Outside Yan's Garden, reporter Kong Hao was looking for valuable news with a heavy camera in his hand.
Suddenly, he saw a familiar face, ran over, patted the man on the shoulder, and said excitedly: "Pan De, why are you here?"
The reporter who was tapped on the shoulder was so startled that he almost dropped the camera in his hand.
"Kong Hao?"
The two recognized each other and were both very surprised.
The two are students at Communication University. Kong Hao is from Guangdong Province, but Pan De is from Guizhou Province. After graduating from university, they pursued their dreams separately, but they did not expect to meet again here.
"I really didn't expect to meet you here today."
"Yeah, where do you work now?"
"China Overseas Finance, what about you?"
"Hey, I'm just a street club, I can't compare to you, a big company."
"Where, where."
The two chatted for a few words, and the topic came to the forefront. Pan De said with emotion: "The prestige of Yan Family Garden today is probably even greater than before. The richest man in Lu is worthy of being the richest man in Lu. Even the friends he associates with are also the richest men."
.”
Kong Hao smiled and said: "The Yan Family Garden is already a thing of the past, and now it is replaced by the Lu Family Garden. I got the news that the richest man Lu originally planned to change this place into the Shi Family Garden, and even the property was registered in his
It’s in my girlfriend’s name, guess what?”
Pande asked curiously: "What's wrong?"
Kong Hao said: "In the end, it was the woman's parents who objected. I heard that the richest man Lu and his girlfriend were high school classmates. They were childhood sweethearts, and the woman's parents were also rich. But when it comes to wealth, they are definitely not as good as Lu.
The richest man, so the couple has regarded this house as an advance gift from the richest man Lu, as if they were afraid that the richest man Lu would regret it, and even paid a dowry worth at least 200 million. "
"Two hundred million dowry?"
Pande was shocked.
"Where did you get the news? How come I didn't know?"
Kong Hao smiled and said: "This matter has spread all over our Baiyun side. Before the news could be reported, the woman's family directly collected a batch of valuable antiques and rare treasures, and even a large number of customized luxury furniture. These days
The sky was transported to China Overseas by air, saying it was used to decorate the interior of the villa, but in fact it was not to please the richest man in Lu, for fear that the son-in-law who was riding a dragon would run away."
Pan De said: "After all, the richest man in Lu did not suffer any loss, and even made a lot of money."
Kong Hao sighed: "I can only say that this world is so magical. Men like us who come from ordinary people want to marry a wife. We have to kneel on the ground and work hard for the woman's family. I heard that in some places, the property is registered in the woman's name.
They are just basic, and some even ask for a car and a bride price for the woman.”
"Besides, the bride price is like a meat bun beating a dog, and you will never come back. Just like this, people may still be picky about you. They don't like this or that, and think you are married off. You say that we men
, what’s the difference between kneeling down and begging for food?”
As singles, the two of them couldn't stop talking about each other. Pan De echoed, "That's right. On the other hand, when a rich man like Mr. Lu marries a wife, the woman is afraid that she won't be able to reach a higher level, so she wants to just go back to her. I heard that in society now, there are still
There are scammers who use this method to defraud money and sex successfully. What do you think is going on in this world?"
Kong Hao shook his head and sighed: "So, there is no so-called fairness in life. If others don't know, how can we reporters know it? The fate of people is uneven. In the final analysis,
You still have to find ways to make money. If you don’t make money, you will always be stepped on and you will never get fair treatment.”
While the two were madly complaining and expressing their emotions, they suddenly heard someone say: "Mr. Liu from New Hope Group is here."
Everyone looked towards the intersection and saw Liu Yongxing in a neat suit, getting out of the luxury car and heading to Lujia Garden.
The two people immediately stopped talking, picked up their cameras, and began to look for the important guests who came to attend the entrance banquet.
"Isn't that the eldest son of the Rong family? My God, even the richest family in Zhonghai sent people to celebrate? How proud is the richest man in Lu?"
"Haha, the most wealthy family in Zhonghai? Fortunately, the richest man in Lu started his family in Baiyun. He is not from Zhonghai and has not settled in Zhonghai. Otherwise, the Rong family may not be able to maintain its position as the most wealthy family."
One after another, big names appeared in Lujia Garden, which was a dizzying sight. These reporters were busy fiddling with their cameras, and they were reluctant to let go of the shutter as if they were free of charge for the film.
If anyone appears here randomly, they are all people who would tremble if they stomp their feet, but now they come to Lujia Garden as a group of congratulators. With such a large number of guests, it has naturally become a feast for these reporters. Of course
You have to shoot hard to be worthy of the price.
Of course, the most exciting thing was when Bill Gates appeared in a Bentley Elegance 728.
When the Bentley Elegant 728 parked at the entrance of Lujia Garden, not to mention the reporters, even prominent figures like Liu Yongxing and others drooled when they looked at the car.
There are only three units of this thing in China every year. You may not be able to buy it if you have money, you need to have good connections.
For the circle of rich people, there is never a shortage of richer people. At this time, the battle is all about connections. How many people want to buy a 728 to support their appearance, but they can't get it.
Bill Gates gets out of the car under the protection of bodyguards.
The reporters went crazy and almost pulled out the shutter button.
The flashing spotlight and the sound of the shutter made those who didn't know better think that firecrackers were being set off here.
This is Bill Gates!
Bill Gates, the richest man in the world!
