Chapter 49 Returning
"No, no, no, Carter, we just met. Please advise us, I'm already very embarrassed, how can I borrow your money again!"

Upon hearing Carter's words, Paul waved his hands again and again.On the other hand, Gates looked at Carter with a thoughtful expression.

There is no love or hate for no reason in this world. His contact with Paul originated from a common interest in computers.Over the years, the friendship has been deeply rooted, and whatever the two parties do for each other is reasonable.But Carter, a person he just met, was willing to lend money to the two of them when he opened his mouth.
This is not normal!
Although Paul's family is good, his father works as an assistant librarian at Washington State University.Although it could not bring Paul a rich life, it could ensure that he had no worries about food and clothing, and he could also have a good environment to acquire knowledge.But compared to Gates, who came from a wealthy family, Paul is much simpler.

At least Gates felt that if it was him, he would never refuse in such a hurry. He should think about Carter's plan carefully.But now that Paul's words have been spoken, it's not easy for Gates to directly contradict his friends.

"It doesn't matter, I still have to charge interest for borrowing money. I'm just optimistic about your future, so I'm willing to help you and make a little money by the way. As a bank practitioner, lending money is my instinct!"

After quietly revealing his own strength and expressing his attitude, Carter did not force it.Whether it is borrowing money or investing, rushing forward will never achieve the maximum return.

It will be a long time in the future. Carter remembers that Microsoft's fortune seems to have started with an order from IBM.It's still early for Microsoft to take off. I haven't seen that they don't even have their own operating system.

"You still have a bank? Carter, how many assets have you hidden? You are amazing. I can't imagine what you will look like ten years from now."

After talking about the business, it's basically just boring blowing water.In the evening, several people had a meal together. In Paul's words, this was a thank you to Carter for his advice.

During the dinner, Carter met Microsoft's third person, Kay Nissi.Microsoft is currently in a bit of financial distress. The few people did not choose to go to a restaurant, but in the company, Alan cooked a fairly sumptuous dinner for Carter.Finally, after exchanging contact information, Carter said goodbye and left.

"Carter! Why did you just come back? We agreed to go out for a while!!"

After returning to the hotel, as soon as Carter opened the door, he saw Melis sitting on the sofa in his room, staring at him unkindly.

"Los Angeles, skirt!"

Carter raised a finger knowingly.Today's harvest can be said to be the most valuable harvest in the whole trip!Although I didn't invest in Microsoft, but I have a relationship with the two founders of Microsoft. I'm afraid I won't have a chance in the future.

It can be said that blessings come from misfortunes, and misfortunes depend on blessings!I couldn't see Volker, but I saw Gates. This is really lucky, and I can't stop it!As for the previous "bad luck in Washington State". Impossible!Absolutely impossible (Meng De waved his hand)!
"Hey hey, it's okay! Are you still playing in Seattle? When are we going to Los Angeles!"

Melis, who was cured of all diseases, smiled and came to Carter's side, hugging Carter's arm and shaking it.With a flattering look on her face, since she entered the West Coast, she has asked almost every day when she will go to Los Angeles.

Now, Carter can already give an affirmative answer:
"Tomorrow! Let's go tomorrow, don't shake it!"

After finding Microsoft, the future giant, Carter is no longer obsessed with finding golden eggs.The golden eggs I found now can't be voted in. If I find more, I can only see that I can't eat them.

In addition, it has been more than a month since it came out, and Carter also misses the small city of Douglas a little bit.It doesn't matter if you don't think your family is poor, it's too tiring to drive around and wander around the United States.The slow pace of life in a small city is undoubtedly the best way to relieve fatigue!

Carter wants to go home, and Melis wants to go to Los Angeles to chase stars.Once again, in this strange way, the goals of the siblings were aligned.Early the next morning, without Carter calling for anyone, Melis packed up and waited outside Carter's door.Check out, have breakfast, go!

The West Coast of the United States is not as complicated as the old East Coast.From Washington State to the south, one Oregon State enters the famous California.As one of the few states with two metropolitan cities, California's economy took off rapidly during World War II.It's a pity that Carter is eager to return home now, and he just drove to the Golden Gate Bridge and Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco to complete the tour.It is worth mentioning that Chinatowns on the west coast are generally much larger than those on the east coast.

Among them, Chinatown in San Francisco is the largest.Carter doesn't know the specific reason. He just wants to eat well. In San Francisco, not only normal Chinese food, but also snacks such as mutton buns can be found.This made Carter so happy that he made a side trip to Silicon Valley before going to Los Angeles.

The United States in 79 already had the concept of Silicon Valley. As early as 71, in the "Business Weekly" newspaper, some reporters used the term Silicon Valley in the United States.But due to its lack of popularity, Silicon Valley can easily be understood as Silicone Valley, which sounds like some um. 18-prohibited industrial concentration.

In Santa Clara County, where Silicon Valley is located, it was true that Carter discovered many familiar companies in the future.The most famous, Apple!Compared with Microsoft's two hard-working brothers, the current leader Joe can be said to be proud of his horseshoe. He was established later than Microsoft, but now Apple's development is much better than Microsoft's.Their personal computer product, the apple II, was selling very hot!

In addition to Apple, there is also the well-known computer processor manufacturer Intel.Companies such as Google, Facebook, and Yahoo have not seen it, but Carter is already very satisfied.He even went to Intel to check it out. Unfortunately, the current processor is not the Core series he is familiar with, not even the Pentium. The latest product is a chip called 8086, which just came off the assembly line last year.

After recording this information in a small notebook, Carter left here and went straight to Los Angeles.And when they arrived in Los Angeles, the most excited one was naturally Melis.Entering Los Angeles was also the only time during the trip that I didn't go to the hotel to put my luggage first, but went straight to the destination.

After parking the car on the side of the road, Carter accompanied Melis to the Hollywood Walk of Fame.Watching Melis jumping up and down in front of each name, Carter only felt bored, even a little noisy.He doesn't even know a few Hollywood stars in later generations, let alone now?
After three days of noisy days, after watching a few old movies and checking in Hollywood, the brother and sister finally set off on their way home.
