China Entertainment: I became a capital tycoon

Chapter 396 Chapter 394. The big shot is coming

There was an uproar about plagiarism on the Internet. Cao Yu knew that this would definitely be the result, so he didn't even bother to read it.

In his original plan, the science and technology park would start construction at the end of March, but after checking the old almanac, he found that there were no good days at the end of the month.

However, April 26nd, which is February [-]th of the lunar calendar, is the best time to break ground.

The main thing is that after the investment conference, he has been very busy these days and can only postpone it for a few days.
"Boss Cao, don't worry. The car specially customized for you will definitely be ready before the end of the year. If your company needs a car in the future, just ask and it will be done. There is no need to increase the price and there is no need to wait. If you want it, it will be available at any time."

The boss of Mercedes-Benz China has signed a contract with Cao Yu and wants to further deepen cooperation.

"Haha, I hope you can do the same to other consumers."

After Cao Yu said this, he saw the other party's expression of embarrassment. He knew that this kind of thing could not be changed immediately, and domestic consumers were accustomed to the price increase of Mercedes-Benz. Fortunately, Mercedes-Benz was not relevant to ordinary people, and ordinary people could not afford it.

After adding some tea to the other party, Cao Yu added: "Actually, you are not at a loss. The effect of the movie and the celebrity effect of the actors have saved you a lot of money on TV advertising. In the future, the new cars will sell well. In fact, you will not lose." We have made a profit."

"Win-win, it's all win-win."

The boss smiled coquettishly and said, "We will provide the three cars that the crew needs as soon as possible."

Before he could finish speaking, Cao Yu's phone rang.

"Director Zhang, aren't you busy with the Olympics? Why did you call me suddenly?"

Cao Yu was a little surprised. There were only a few months left in the Olympics, so Zhang Yimou should be very busy.

The regional boss of Mercedes-Benz heard "Olympics" and Director Zhang, and probably guessed it was Zhang Yimou, so he quickly shut up.

Zhang Yimou laughed on the phone and said: "Two things. The first thing is that your song "You and Me" has basically been confirmed as the theme song of the Olympic Games."

"Oh, what about the second one?"

This incident was basically expected by Cao Yu, so he acted quite calmly.

"Why isn't he surprised at all? He becomes so deep now that he's rich?"

Zhang Yimou was also startled by Cao Yu's reaction, and then said: "The second thing is that someone asked me to call you."

"Who?"

"The director of "BJ Welcomes You" wanted to invite you to participate in the recording, but was afraid that you would refuse, so he found me and asked if you could come."

"This matter?"

Cao Yu remembered that this song "BJ Welcomes You" was sung by many singers, but he didn't want to get involved and refused: "Director Zhang, I'm not a singer, and I'm very busy recently, so I'd better give the opportunity to Someone else.”

"I knew you would say this, okay, I get it, I'll push it for you."

Zhang Yimou was just helping to pass on a message. He didn't expect it to happen, and he didn't care: "When I'm not busy anymore, I'll sit with you."

"no problem."

Cao Yu hung up the phone and found that the boss of Mercedes-Benz was looking at him in surprise, as if saying: "Even Director Zhang dares to refuse, you're awesome!"

The news of Feiyu Film’s successful investment had only been hot for two days. On March 29, a bigger piece of news about Boss Cao once again appeared in major news media.

And this time, Yangma reported on the news.

The news said that Larry Page, the founder of Miguo Google, together with the current CEO, will come to China at the beginning of the month to attend the groundbreaking ceremony of Fei'e Technology Park.

“Google is coming to participate, Fei Ge Video is awesome!”

"It seems that YouTube is afraid... Fei Ge video has brought glory to China."

"I wonder if the two sides will reach any cooperation when Google comes this time..."

This news immediately aroused the pride of Chinese netizens, and they did not even mention Boss Cao’s previous business solicitation and money making.

That's Google, a company that's only a little less powerful than Microsoft. They have to attend the groundbreaking ceremony of Fei'e Technology Park, which shows Fei'e Video's international influence.

A spring rain swept away the smog in Yanjing and brought some fresh earthy smell to the air.

In the Yizhuang Economic Development Zone in the southern suburbs of Yanjing, in a park that is about to start construction, more than 30 excavators and forklifts are neatly arranged, and red flags are flying around the entire park.

Although big news is going to happen here today, there are not a large number of reporters, only Yangma reporters who have been screened through layers of screening, and several national media.

Not only that, there are a large number of police officers surrounding the park to protect it.

"Xiao Cao, when will the leader arrive?"

Lu Huateng, who had been waiting here to help his brothers, looked at the police around him and asked in a low voice.

"Come on, it's nine o'clock."

This is a groundbreaking ceremony. Cao Yu didn't want to make it earth-shattering, but Google's visit, and the fact that this industrial park is a key project of Yanjing this year, not only the city leaders are coming, but also alarmed the senior officials.

Lu Huateng smiled and said, "Are you a little nervous?"

"well enough."

Cao Yu was indeed a little nervous. Although he was reborn, he had never thought that he would have the opportunity to meet such a high-level figure before.

"You'll get used to it later."

Lu Huateng could also understand. In fact, when he first met the leader of Pengcheng, he behaved the same way as Cao Yu, not to mention that this time it was different.

"Haha, it's better to try not to have a future..."

"It's not up to you, and it's also a good thing. Don't even think about it. You can't even ask for it."

"Brother Lu has some truth to what he said."

Cao Yu nodded and looked at Yang Shuxue who was attending the ceremony.

I found that the other person was looking at me and smiling, as if to say, "Dear, it's okay, I'm here."

Not far away, Larry Page was also whispering to Google CEO and China head Li Kaifu: "Which leader is coming? Is this going to cause such a big scene?"

Li Kaifu explained: "I can't say."

"Oh, just wait." Hearing that leaders of this level were here, Larry Page couldn't help but glance at Cao Yu again, feeling that Huaxia Cao's project definitely has a future and must cooperate.

Just after nine o'clock, a huge motorcade drove here on time, and then Cao Yu, a character who had only been seen on "Xinwen Lianbo" before, walked down surrounded by a group of people.

Cao Yu and Ren Zhengfei, along with everyone, hurriedly greeted them.

Cao Yu stretched out his hands and took the leader's hand: "Welcome the leader to inspect."

"Mr. Cao is so young, he is really formidable."

The leader praised with a smile, and then held hands with Ren Zhengfei: "Mr. Ren, we in China need entrepreneurs like you."

"Welcome Mr. Page to China"

The reporters from Yangma recorded the scene of the leader’s inspection.

After shaking hands with everyone present, the leader gave instructions on the planning of the science and technology park and made a brief speech, mainly encouraging Chinese enterprises to be science and technology-based, based in China, and going global.
Finally, all the leaders, together with Cao Yu and others, unveiled the industrial park and announced that the Huaxia Cloud Computing project would be developed here.

Amidst the sound of firecrackers, an excavator dug the first shovel of soil, and the whole ceremony was finally over.

After seeing the leader off and watching the police leave, Cao Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

"What? Not used to it?"

Ren Zhengfei also felt a lot more relaxed and came over to joke with Cao Yu.

Cao Yu also told the truth: "I'm not used to it, it's so restrictive."

"Xiao Cao, your identity is different now. You need to experience these things more."

The two were about to go to the project leader when Larry Page came over.

"Mr. Cao, I was curious before about why you, a video company, want to build such a large science and technology park. It turns out that you want to build cloud computing."

"Haha, Mr. Page, when Mr. Schmidt proposed the concept of cloud computing two years ago, I had this plan. Unfortunately, I didn't have the money at that time, so it was delayed until now."

Cao Yu smiled casually and then asked: "Does Mr. Page want to do this too?"

"Of course, we proposed cloud computing first."

Larry Page smiled proudly and then said: "Mr. Cao, since we want to work together, why not strengthen cooperation in this area and fight against Oracle's Oracle database together. I wonder what Boss Cao thinks?"

"That's a good thing."

Although Cao Yu didn't know in his heart whether this was a good thing, he still showed great interest in it and said with a smile: "If we can cooperate with Microsoft, I think this project will progress very quickly."

"Mr. Cao is really refreshing."

When Larry Page saw the other party's promise, he immediately showed his true nature as a businessman: "I heard that you have invested nearly 35 million U.S. dollars in this project. If we add another [-] million U.S. dollars and support you technically, can we get this new company?" [-]% of the company’s shares?”

"Depend on!"

Cao Yu immediately cursed in his heart.

Huawei invested 15 billion to only hold 30% of the shares. You can’t contribute 15 billion, but you still want 35%?

As for technology investment and cloud computing, you are just starting out, and everyone is half-assed. How can you provide us with technical support?
However, he did not refuse directly. Instead, he turned to Ren Zhengfei, who was more experienced in this kind of thing, and said, "Mr. Ren, what do you think about this matter?"

"There is no need to invest. Feigo Video and we, Huawei, are not short of money!"

Ren Zhengfei immediately rejected the other party's investment idea and then said: "But in terms of technology, since we all want to defeat Oracle, we can communicate and cooperate in this area. Why not jointly build a R&D laboratory in China?"

When Cao Yu heard this, he couldn't help but secretly gave Mr. Ren a thumbs up.

After all, they have experience, and those who refuse will leave the other party speechless.

Now Huawei is really not short of money. At the end of the last century, Huawei's sales exceeded 2 billion. Now that the P[-] mobile phone is on the market, it is expected to exceed [-] billion this year. Do you need your investment?

This is the domineering spirit of the Chinese people.

Sure enough, after Ren Zhengfei finished speaking, Larry Page frowned.

He felt that Cao Yu was young and was developing too fast, so he might be easy to deal with, but the gray-haired old man in front of him should not be underestimated.

It seemed that it would be difficult to invest in this technology company. He hesitated and said, "Since Mr. Ren said so, we will strengthen cooperation in technology and fight Oracle together. However, I think this R&D laboratory It would be better to build it in the Silicon Valley of the United States, after all, there are many talents."

Ren Zhengfei still shook his head and said: "Haha, we in China are not bad either. I think it would be better to build the laboratory in the northwest, which is Mr. Cao's hometown."

"Mr. Ren is right. Our hometown is also full of talents and has several first-class universities."

Cao Yu immediately agreed.

Moving to the northwest will not only boost the economy of the hometown and retain talents, but also prevent the outflow of technology.

Larry Page was not stupid, and immediately said: "Let's do this, then establish one in Silicon Valley and one in China, and let's communicate more."

"Just do it!"

Cao Yu and Ren Zhengfei nodded in unison, and then they looked at each other and smiled.

The two sides reached an agreement. On the way back to the city, Ren Zhengfei said: "Xiao Cao, the foreign devils' usual trick is to use capital to control the world. It doesn't matter if Fei'e Video has foreign capital. Technology companies like cloud computing should try to avoid foreign capital." intervention."

"Mr. Ren, I understand. No wonder Huawei Technology has never had foreign investment."

Cao Yu glanced at the old man with admiration and understood the reason why Huawei was not listed on the market.

"You're not bad either. I saw that you didn't agree to Peppa Pig's request rashly, so I knew you wanted to refuse. We cooperated very well."

Ren Zhengfei patted Cao Yu on the shoulder as he spoke: "Actually, Google's technology can still be used for reference. There is no reason to object. Setting up a laboratory will also help us reserve talents. What do you think?"

"Lao Ren's pattern is so big!"

Cao Yu finally extended a thumbs up in admiration.

PS: I asked for leave yesterday. I will update more today. By the way, I would like to ask for some monthly tickets and recommended tickets. It is the end of the month. If you have tickets, please support me. It will be wasted if it expires.
