Stanford University is located in the San Francisco area, near Silicon Valley. It is one of the top 10 private research universities in the world. It had nurtured many Nobel Prize laureates and many business elites.
These business elites include the founders of HP, Asian Tiger, Nike, Logitech, Firefox, Cisco, eBay, etc. They had also nurtured many world-class executives.
Today, Feng Yu had come here to meet two geniuses he admires. They are internet technology geniuses.
Larry Page and Sergey Brin. In Feng Yu's previous life, these two had founded Google, the world's biggest search engine.
Larry Page still does not see the value of this technology, and he discussed with Sergey to sell this technology to Asian Tiger for 1 million USD. The founder of Asian Tiger is their schoolmate.
Sergey is still hesitating and felt this is a good opportunity to start his own business. Although he does not even have 10,000 USD now, he can find someone to invest.
Feng Yu's leaflets at Stanford University worked, and Feng Yu is willing to invest in any company as long as someone can convince him.
After Sergey knew about this, he persuaded Larry to give up on selling the technology and called someone to investigate and invest in their research.
Feng Yu had asked Ralph to keep an eye on these two names, and after Sergey called, Feng Yu told Ralph that he will be coming over personally to investigate their technology. If they are interested, he can consider investing or acquiring them.
Today, both of them are waiting for Feng Yu at a restaurant near the campus. They are even nervous as they are afraid Feng Yu might not be optimistic about their technology.
When Feng Yu arrived at the restaurant, he was accompanied by 8 bodyguards. This attracted everyone's attention. They were curious who was going out with so many bodyguards. Was it a celebrity? But why is he an Asian Kung Fu superstar? Could he be an Asian Kung Fu superstar like Bruce Lee?
Feng Yu accepted an interview with < Forbes >, but he did not agree to publish his photos. Although some newspapers published Feng Yu's photos, the circulation was not high and not many people paid attention to it. So, these people did not know who Feng Yu was.
In the corner of the restaurant sat two young men with messy hair and thick beards. When these two young men saw the tall and mighty bodyguards standing in front of them, they revealed nervous expressions.
"Larry Page, Sergey Brin?" Feng Yu asked.
"It's us. You are?"
The bodyguard pulled out a chair, and Feng Yu sat down: "I am Feng, the person who might invest in your research. Shh ~ ~ ~ don't get too excited. "
Feng Yu looked at the two geniuses in front of him. He had to admit that the two of them looked quite similar. They both had curly hair and a beard. Although they were both dressed in suits, they still looked a little sloppy!
But it doesn't matter. Feng Yu wants their brains and technologies. Their appearances are not important.
When the two young men saw Feng Yu, they wanted to stand up excitedly. But Feng Yu gestured them to sit back down and tried to suppress their excitement.
"Mr. Feng, our technology is a type of search engine technology. We invented a calculation method to rank the web pages …" Larry Page starts to explain. He can't stop talking about this technology.
To be honest, Feng Yu does not understand a lot of what Larry Page said as it was too professional. Also, Feng Yu does not need to understand. He is here to invest and not to conduct his own research.
"Wait a minute. Larry, Sergey, I am not a scientist or an engineer. I don't understand what you are saying." Feng Yu knew that if he does not interrupt Larry Page, he might be able to talk for an hour. Sergey will also add on from time to time.
Larry and Sergey are a little embarrassed. They do not know what to do. Does this mean that Feng Yu does not want to invest in their search engine technology?
Larry Page is still fine as he had planned to sell this technology. If Feng Yu does not want to invest, he will look for his seniors from Asian Tiger. Sergey Brin, on the other hand, wanted to continue to perfect this technology and start a business.
"Mr Feng, our technology is really promising. It can allow people to search for the web pages they want faster. It is very convenient for users and can increase website traffic …"
Feng Yu waved his hand. "Larry, don't panic. Although I don't understand your technology, a small investment is nothing to me. I want to know what the two of you are thinking. Do you want to sell this technology, or do you want me to invest in you to continue perfecting this technology? "
Larry wants to complete his studies and wants to sell his technology. But Sergey wants someone to invest in him.
Larry asked, "Mr Feng, how much are you going to give us if we sell it? If it is an investment, how are you going to split the profits? "
"If you want to sell this technology, I can give you 1 million USD. I think no one can offer this price except me."
Before Feng Yu could finish his sentence, Larry wanted to agree to it. 1 million USD! After Larry and Sergey split the profits, everyone will have money and can complete their studies first. They can also start their own businesses in the future.
But when he thought about Sergey, he knew that Sergey would definitely want to hear the investment proposal.
"If it is an investment, I will invest 10 million USD to set up a company and give both of you 5% shares. Both of you will be in charge of perfecting the search engine technology. If the company needs more funds, I will be the one to solve it. As long as I can see the future, I will invest 100 million USD. Also, I will not dilute your shares. But all the related technologies developed in the future will belong to the company! "
Larry's eyes widen. Even an idiot knows which proposal to choose. The second proposal might require them to put in some effort, but each of them will get 500,000 USD in the form of shares.
More importantly, Feng Yu said that if the company needs more funds, Feng Yu will settle it, and their shares will not be diluted. This means if they can produce results that satisfy Feng Yu, the value of their shares will increase by 10 times!
As for the future technologies will belong to the company, they will not object. After all, they are also the company's shareholders.
Before Larry can say anything, Sergey said loudly, "We will choose the second proposal!"
Feng Yu also knows that most people will choose the second proposal. Geniuses are hard to come by, and Sergey does not feel he is losing out by giving away 10% of his shares. Instead, the talents of these two will bring him more than 100 times the profits.
"Ok. This is the contract. Both of you can take a look and sign it. You will be the founders of Google. Google is 10 to the 100th power, and it represents our huge search data. I believe we can create an amazing company! "
