Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant

Chapter 455: Chatting at the Summit

Time passed quickly, and it was time for the "vacation" of the Sun Valley Summit. Mr. Qu Li and Mr. Lei got ready and came to the "battlefield".

The two unexpectedly found a familiar face. Youku CEO Gu Yong also participated in this "summer camp" for some reason. Looking at his bewildered face, it seems that he really came to the United States for vacation. Qu Lizhen envied his chicness.

Without Honor's participation, Google would have acquired Motorola a month after the Sun Valley Summit. With such high efficiency, who would believe that there is no "secret" behind it? The Sun Valley summit is already easy to do big things.

Without chatting with Gu Yongduo, the three separated soon. The three companies of Honor, Google, and Motorola were going to do big things. Qu Li didn't even talk to the media at the scene. He went to the place and had a good rest. There was not much time for negotiations. When making key decisions, if you lack energy, you will lose a lot.

It was Bill Gazi and Buffett who approached Qu Li first. They like to communicate with young elites. This time, they did not discuss business with him, but learned about Fanxing Fund from him.

"Actually, it's not that I want to do public welfare and charity. The main reason is that money comes too easily, which exceeds the upper limit of my ability. There is an old saying in China: if virtue does not match, there will be disasters..." Qu Li perfected his theory

"My first project chose the seawater rice project hosted by Yuan Lao, the father of hybrid rice. Rice can be grown in saline-alkali land and irrigated with seawater. If the project is successful, there will be 950 million hectares of saline-alkali land in the world. If 100 million hectares (1.5 billion mu ) can grow Shanghai rice, then there will be no food crisis in the world..."

"Actually, there is no food crisis now!" Bill Gazi suddenly said

"Don't hit the child like that, he has a good idea." Buffett said quickly

Qu Li was stunned. Judging from the current productivity, there is no problem at all feeding seven or eight billion people around the world. So what is the essence of the food crisis? The same situation can be compared. With such a high GDP in our country, why are there still poor people? Can hard work really make you rich? Is "poor" really because of laziness? Is the poor social welfare really just to stop supporting lazy people?

Qu Li didn't think about it for too long. He has another plan, which is "Ant Forest". Participation, he has no good ideas.

"You like farming so much?" Bill Gazi asked strangely.

"..." Not good, let him discover the traditional arts of Chinese people. Farming is not a kind of "gene" carved into the bones of most Chinese people.

"I may have seen too many tragedies in history, so I want to work hard..." Qu Li, what he didn't know was that Bill Gazi was the largest private owner of farmland in the United States.

The three of them were chatting and talking about public welfare and charity. If you say that they are great benevolent people, it may not be true. If you say that they do charity only to avoid taxes, it would be too small to underestimate the best group of people in the world. Humans can be the most evil creatures in the world, or they can be wonderful creatures. He would rather believe that the world's top rich people really want to do charity, otherwise the reality is too scary.

Qu Li is not the only target of Bill Gates and Buffett. They also have more social activities. For example, Bill Gates will interview Qu Li and Zuckerberg in a media event, so they separated after chatting for a while.

Participating in the Sun Valley Summit is mainly from the traditional industries in the United States. Now more and more entrepreneurs in the IT technology industry. As the world's top rich man, Qu Li doesn't have to worry about no one chatting with him. Even Amazon's Bezos is also interested. Have a chat with him.

In addition to Musk’s SpaceX and Bezos’ Blue Origin in the United States, their foundation in the aerospace field is much stronger than that in China. For example, the rocket manufacturing industry chain is very complete, and various spare parts can be bought in the market. All domestic aerospace companies are state-owned enterprises, and it is too difficult for private enterprises to start a business. From manufacturing to launching, there are restrictions everywhere. Without the support of the state and the introduction of policy guidance, it is tantamount to talking about doing this in China.

Although Qu Li is Chinese, his experience is legendary enough, he is good at personal marketing, and has a full personality. From e-commerce retail to smart phones, and the recent Qiancheng Geometry pure electric car, he has been reported by a large number of media.

While touting Musk, Qu Li has become another entrepreneur who is better than "Musk", even in Silicon Valley, he is one of the most troublesome entrepreneurs.

Qu Li and Bezos chatted extensively, basically involving various industries they are engaged in, especially electric vehicles.

"I was inspired by Musk. I originally wanted Honor to do this, but the board of directors disagreed, so I had to find a way. In China, if you want to build a car, you need to have various qualifications. In order to save time, I bought it directly. A small car business..."

"Starting from fuel vehicles, electric vehicles are actually a transition. What I really want to do is self-driving cars. Now that there is software as a service, will there be mobility as a service in the future?" Qu Li flickered, flicking hard, Google has invested billions of dollars in its subsidiary Waymo, not to mention that there is no hope of success at all. Anyway, there is no possibility of profit in the short term. What if Amazon also spends money to enter this industry? It's still beautiful when you think about it.

"Is self-driving too far away?"

"Well, our engineers also said the same, so I decided to start a profitable car company, starting with advanced driver assistance, iterating step by step..." Qu Li said both truth and lies.

"When will your future geometry be on the market, I want to order one." Bezos

"It's available now, but our production line has only started construction this year, and we won't be able to achieve small-scale mass production until the end of the year at least..." Qu Li said

The English name of Qiancheng Motors is Prospect electric vehicle, or PEV for short (same as the English abbreviation of pure electric vehicles).

There are only household charging piles. Not a single car has been sold yet, so there is no super charging pile. Even if it is to be built, it must be after mass production.

Qu Li asked about the Bezos rocket launch. On July 9 this year, the US space shuttle Atlantis was launched and headed to the International Space Station for the last mission. This is the end of an era. It's up to commercial rockets.

Bezos and Musk must have known each other, had dinner and chatted together, but because of the similar business layout, commercial rocket launches were highly competitive, and then gradually drifted away. By the way, Blue Origin, which was founded in 2000, is not as good as SpaceX, which was founded in 2002, which is somewhat of a blow to Bezos.

It is rewarding to chat with these top business elites, but it is a pity to be busy with business, Qu Li quickly escaped from the chat and entered the working state.
