Chapter 84 Location of Apple's New Headquarters
The miracle created by Li Zetian is no less than that of Wang An, another Chinese. All major media in the world have focused on Li Zetian, and even the media in mainland China have also reported on this matter.

Harvard University also received the news very quickly. It is so embarrassing that the dropouts of Harvard University have achieved such achievements!To say that Li Zetian achieved such achievements because he studied at Harvard University is undoubtedly putting money on his face. He dropped out of school after only one year of study. How much can Harvard University teach others?Others have achieved so much by dropping out of Harvard.Therefore, Li Zetian's success, on the other hand, is tantamount to encouraging more college students to drop out of school, causing students at Harvard University and other universities to be eager to move.

In the past two days, the popularity of the "Panda Express" restaurant has soared, and many people even come here from other states.

No one else, because this fast food restaurant was established by the fiancee of a young billionaire.Unexpectedly, the food in this fast food restaurant is very delicious, and it also caters to the tastes of the current Americans. The business is booming, and even the queue has to wait for half an hour.Word of mouth has made the business of "Panda Express" better and better, and its reputation is getting bigger and bigger. Some people even come to the door, hoping to be authorized to open a chain store!In addition, many people know that Li Zetian is the youngest billionaire who started from scratch in the history of American business, and they will naturally be very interested in how he started from scratch. For a while, Apple was also widely exposed by the media because of Li Zetian, and its popularity increased greatly. , Apple-ll's sales soared!
The guys from the U.S. Immigration Service quickly came to the door, like a pug, with a very respectful attitude, and asked Li Zetian to become a U.S. citizen.

Li Zetian thought about it, developing in the United States, if he does not take American citizenship, he will inevitably be put under the shoes of the US government, so he simply agreed to the request of the immigration bureau and took dual citizenship.

Li Zetian didn't stay in New York for long, he stayed with Yu Jingqiu for three days before returning to California.

At this point, his ultra-luxury convertible, the Rolls-Royce Adventure, was already parked in Apple's parking garage.

Back at Apple, when Li Zetian was not in charge of luxury cars, he first found Shuai Tian and discussed with him about the company's listing.

Li Zetian said: "The rent in San Jose is too high. Instead of continuing to rent, we should buy a piece of land and build a headquarters before going public. I think Cupertino is a small city with beautiful scenery and pleasant climate. It is located in California, USA. The city in the south of the San Francisco Bay Area and the west of Santa Clara County is adjacent to the county capital San Jose. In the middle of the 20th century, the economy of this place began to take off, and various highways and railways were built accordingly. The traffic is very convenient! If we go to buy land here now, the price must be very cheap, and in order to attract Apple to choose the headquarters address in Cupertino, the local government will definitely give us very favorable conditions!"

Tian Shuai nodded: "Well, I also agree with moving Apple's headquarters to a small city. The housing prices in San Jose are indeed too expensive. With the growth of Apple's scale, we need more office buildings and land in small cities. Cheap and easy for us to expand!"

"That's right, let's go tomorrow morning, let's go to Cupertino for inspection." Li Zetian said.

"Ok!"

After the chat, Li Zetian had time to take a look at his super luxury car.

Coming to the garage, the silver Rolls-Royce Adventure parked there quietly, eclipsing all the surrounding cars.

Li Zetian smiled slightly, stepped forward, sat in the driver's seat, started the car, and returned to the apartment.

Now, Li Zetian doesn't plan to buy a house in San Jose either.

Now that Apple is moving to Cupertino, Li Zetian can build a comfortable villa in Cupertino for a small sum of money.In fact, now Cupertino is almost a very small town with a sparse population. Later, because of Apple and other large high-tech companies, such as Symantec (Symantec), Oracle, MySQLAB and Zend, Seagate, The headquarters of large companies such as Trend Micro moved here, and the population increased substantially, reaching 5.8. Among them, only Apple's local headquarters has 34 employees, making it the company with the largest number of employees in the city. 300 people rank second, and these two companies alone already have 8 employees. What is the original population of Cupertino?

There is no doubt that Apple is going to buy land here, and the price is almost like the price of cabbage!
In fact, this is the reason why American high-tech companies move their companies to small cities like Cupertino, because the land is cheap, the scenery is good, and the transportation is convenient.For example, Microsoft and Nintendo of America are headquartered in Redmond, a city with a population of less than 5. Google, Mozilla Foundation/Mozilla, and Microsoft's MSN/Hotmail/Xbox/MSNTV departments are in Mountain View, etc.

Li Zetian does not intend to put Apple and Microsoft in the same city, because the two companies will inevitably become competitors in the future. If the headquarters are moved to the small city of Cupertino, it will be easy to see the atmosphere when looking down. Get nervous, like fire and water.As the founder of the two companies, Li Zetian was naturally in a dilemma.The two companies are separated, but it is out of sight, as long as they both create value for themselves, it is OK.

In the early morning of the next day, Li Zetian and his team drove to Cupertino. In addition to Tian Shuai, they were accompanied by Zhang Han, Wozniak, Jobs, and a designer James George from SOM Architects.

Around 10 o'clock in the morning, everyone arrived in Cupertino.

The locals had never seen a luxury car like Rolls Royce, and they were all very surprised.

The town is not big, and the mayor of the city, Peter Welch, rushed over within a few minutes after hearing the news.

Li Zetian had shown his face on TV, and Peter Welch naturally recognized him. In addition to that silver Rolls-Royce dangerous road super luxury car, Peter Welch had no doubts about Li Zetian's identity.

"Welcome Chronos li and everyone else, I am the mayor of Cupertino!"

"Hello, Mayor Welch, I hope I didn't disturb you!" Li Zetian smiled and shook hands with him.

Peter Welch shook his head and smiled: "No trouble, no trouble, may I ask Chronos li, why are you here in Cupertino?"

Li Zetian smiled, and said straight to the point: "That's right, we plan to choose a new headquarters for Apple, and now we'll come to Cupertino to check it out and see if it's suitable."

Peter Welch was surprised and overjoyed at the same time.

If Apple, a well-known high-tech company, can establish its headquarters in Cupertino, there is no doubt that it will play a huge leading role, and other high-tech companies will inevitably choose Cupertino. It won’t take long. Cupertino Tino can get rid of the dependence on the agricultural economy and develop into a high-tech city!

Peter Welch made up his mind to keep Apple here no matter what! !
