Rebirth

"Jerry, David, are you two here so early?" At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Yang Zhiyuan and David arrived at Li Feng's mansion.

"John, don't you know, David called all afternoon. I was so annoyed by him that I had no choice but to come early." Yang Zhiyuan immediately replied with a smile.

"Jerry, isn't it? You said you came earlier." David immediately countered.

"Don't tell me, since you two came so early, even though you have seen this house a long time ago, we still take you around." Li Feng interrupted the two of them immediately and said with a smile.

"OK, just to see what has changed since you moved in. This is a mansion on the top of the mountain. It is also the best in the entire Los Altos. John, you will really enjoy it." David turned his gun to face Li Feng joked.

"Would you like to leave a room for you? You can live here."

"I still love my family." David then retorted with a smile.

"Let's go, let's go around." After speaking, they took the two into the manor and turned around leisurely.

To be honest, this mansion Li Feng is very satisfied. It occupies an area more than twice the size of Century Manor on the top of Beverly Hill. It is a newly built manor villa, both in construction and decoration. It is top-notch in terms of magnificence and magnificence. Not too much.

Including the main house, the auxiliary building, the security room, the maid’s room, etc., it is indeed a top enjoyment, and it is so cheap, well, compared to the more than 40 million in Beverly Hills, it is really cheap.

......

Naturally, with the arrival of Li Feng and Wang Siming, under the arrangement of this top housekeeper, the villa has been completed in terms of decoration, etc. The whole manor is modern and has the feeling of a classical manor, which is very good.

"John, to be honest, this house is really good. When I get rich, I will build a top-notch mansion here. That's enjoyment." David said with a smile.

"Then soon, as soon as Yahoo goes public, the wealth of the two will expand rapidly." Li Feng laughed and joked with them.

"Huh..., I feel more and more that we are working for you now, no matter how swelling we are, where are you so fast!" David gave Li Feng a blank look and then counterattacked.

"Wow, David, when you were so smart, you finally found out."

"Fuck off!"

"Haha..."

After strolling around, amidst the envious laughter of Yang Zhiyuan and David, the three found a lounge, sipping coffee and drinking tea and chatting.

......

In the evening, in front of the gate of the manor, watching the huge parking lot of vehicles stop from time to time, Li Feng greeted familiar and unfamiliar people from time to time, indicating that the cocktail party tonight is about to begin.

"Tang, Old John, Michael, how are you guys, long time no see, welcome you! Excuse me, who is this?"

But it was Sequoia Capital and KPCB's three big venture capital kings who came, along with a middle-aged man, but Li Feng didn't know him, so he smiled and said hello.

"Wow, little John, I don't know this one, okay, this is Mr. Vinod Khosla, the founder of the famous Silicon Valley Sun Microsystems, a well-known venture capitalist." John Durr then joked back. Dao, okay, two people, an old John and a little John, can be considered a short story.

"Oh, you are Mr. Vinod. Although you don't know you, you have been admired for a long time." Li Feng immediately greeted a gray-haired middle-aged man.

"Hello, John, it's nice to meet you. Today some of them said that you are holding a party here. Don't mind if you are uninvited."

"You are a distinguished guest, it is an honor!"

Afterwards, Yang Zhiyuan and others all chatted together.

......

"Little John, I have been looking for you for a long time after receiving your call. You see, the Romanie Conti in 1977 is a gift for your new home, adding a little bit of heritage to your wine cellar." Don Valentine at this time He took out a bottle of red wine and joked at Li Feng.

"Wow, Tang, you really had a heavy bleeding today. Last time you told you to open this bottle of wine, you didn't open it. This time it was sent out." John Durr immediately joked from the side.

Then everyone gave gifts, and they didn't know whether they were negotiated or what. They were all red wines, including wines from famous French estates in Bordeaux and Napa Valley.

Then I watched that no one arrived, and a few people chatted a little bit. For Vinod Khosla, most people may be really unfamiliar, mainly because they are too low-key.

Many people know the well-known venture capital firm KPCB, but they don’t know that in addition to the king of venture capital, John Doerr, there is also a king of venture capital that is not inferior to John Doerr, that is Vino Decosla was one of the most famous partners who later joined KPCB.

If you tell you that Netscape was the first to join John Durr and several other investors to start venture capital, before the Internet bubble, the famous Sun Microsystems was founded by him, and he is called "the originator of the optical fiber network industry." ".

And because they are of Indian descent, it must be admitted that there are many Indian computer and Internet experts in Silicon Valley. The computer programming skills of later generations in India are very good. Most software companies in the world have established R&D branches in India. I have taken a fancy to India's large number of software R&D talents, which is natural and cheap.

......

Originally, Li Feng didn’t know anything about it, but in the past week, when Li Feng asked people to investigate the most famous Internet companies in Silicon Valley, he originally wondered if he could find some famous companies in later generations, maybe it would be a new source of money. Also learn about the current situation in Silicon Valley.

It was in it that Sun Computer System was discovered. In fact, Li Feng didn't know anything about Sun Company, but he saw the UNIX system of Sun System Company and understood what it meant.

Even if Li Feng was an illiterate in his previous life, he still knows what the UNIX system represents. But in the early days of enterprise-level operating systems, Microsoft was not able to fight back. Later, after Microsoft released 95, it slowly got closer. After Microsoft released the 2000 system, it was finally defeated by Microsoft. You can see how awesome it is.

Before the Internet bubble burst, these companies were the best quality companies. As long as they bought the stocks of these companies and emptied them before the bubble, they were all profiteering.

When Li Feng was chatting with Bill Weilibe recently, he asked him to increase the size of the closed fund in the investment company (somewhat similar to a bank deposit, with a higher interest rate). I heard that the effect was good, and a large amount of spare money came in.

Li Feng asked Bill Weilibe to focus on Internet companies and related hardware companies such as Cisco. As long as such companies are listed, they will absorb stocks in the stock market. I don't know if there is a Sun company among them.According to the information, Sun Computer’s focus is on hardware instead, and it is the largest Internet enterprise solution provider besides Cisco.

What Li Feng didn’t know was that Sun was very successful in the next wave of the Internet. In 2000, its market value peaked at nearly US$300 billion. Unfortunately, with the collapse of the bubble, it almost went bankrupt in just over a year, and later generations ended up with dozens of them. 100 million dollars was acquired.

......

Of course, after collecting and reading the information of Sun Company, Li Feng almost drooled, whether it was the Internet foundation on the hardware or the UNix system on the operating system, as well as those executives.

In particular, among the executives, I found a world-famous CEO named Eric Schmidt. Yes, he was the CEO who was later called one of the "Google" troikas.

When he saw Eric Schmidt, Li Feng was completely moved. Not only was he looking for a manager who could fully control the Internet company, but also someone who was more suitable than this Eric Schmidt. Well.

Perhaps it is really thinking day by day and dreaming at night. Just as Li Feng was chatting with a few Silicon Valley bigwigs, a strange voice full of surprise came from the side.

"Hello, Mr. Li, thank you for your invitation, Mr. Khosla, are you here too?"
