Society owes me a brother

Chapter 162

A private party for a Silicon Valley mogul is scheduled for seven o'clock on a Sunday night.The shareholders of Campus Network and their family members arrived around [-]:[-] in the evening. At that time, many people had already gathered in the villa. The man of the hour on the cover of a financial magazine.Of course, there are also some familiar faces belonging to the handsome men and women in Hollywood and the fashion industry.

In contrast, Lu Chi, one of the main founders of the campus network and the most high-profile financial genius on Wall Street, but because he seldom accepts interviews with the news media, is the one who is relatively unfamiliar in the eyes of everyone.

But for the well-informed Silicon Valley bigwigs, even if Lu Chi lives so reclusively to the extent of a mysterious person, it does not prevent them from knowing—or at least knowing Lu Chi's face.

Rufus Connelly, the host of the private party, the founder of SP Technology, the most influential router brand in country M and even the world, immediately greeted the shareholders of the campus network.

"My dear friends, thank you for coming." He stepped forward, greeted everyone face-to-face, and said with a smile: "I wish you a good time."

Then, Rufus Connelly, as the host, introduced his good friends to Lu Chi and others - several IT bigwigs who are also well-known in Silicon Valley.For example, the well-known Mr. Richest Man, the founder of Fruit Phone, the CEO of Fetion Communications, etc.

Over the past year of studying in country M, Lu Chi has been busy with work and studies and has been living in seclusion.However, he has also been friends with these well-known bigwigs in the IT industry for a long time.

Especially the fruit phone... Lu glanced at Bell Brosnan indiscriminately.He still remembered that he and Lu Heng had nothing to do to discuss investment during the Chinese New Year.In addition to mentioning a few stocks that are not recommended for investment inexplicably, Lu Heng also successfully "predicted" that international energy prices will rise rapidly in the next few years, and asked him to pay attention to the opportunity to "buy the bottom" of oil futures.In addition, this newly promoted film star who is internationally renowned but his math scores have always hovered on the passing line still insists on letting his brother buy the stock of Fruit Phone and hold it for a long time.And it also inexplicably "predicted" that the fruit phone is likely to develop a smartphone in the next few years——

In order to explain to Lu Chi what a smart phone is, Mr. Actor, who has always been ignorant of finance and high-tech fields, also specially described the shape and various functions of a smart phone. The blockbuster movie is also dreamy, not only that, but Lu Heng also bravely suggested to his brother to use the resources he came into contact with when he was studying in Stanford to directly form a technical team, and it is best to develop the operating code of the smartphone first... This sudden whim That said, if it wasn't for Lu Chi to be sure that the silly roe deer was his own brother...

So Lu Chi had no choice but to tell his brother not to talk nonsense outside.Hearing this, Lu Heng, a foolish boy, had callused ears and became impatient.However, the sequelae of the whole incident is that Lu Chi is very concerned about the stocks and futures mentioned by his brother.

On the other side, Bell Brosnan, who was secretly followed by Lu Chi, also expressed a certain degree of curiosity about the founder of the campus network.A group of bigwigs stood casually in the lobby and chatted, and the topics naturally revolved around the most cutting-edge technology in Silicon Valley and the continuous Internet winter in recent years.Of course, it is also inevitable to mention the campus network that is undergoing rapid development and expansion, and will introduce new ones on the function page every once in a while.

The CEO of Feixun Communications commented in a tone of ridicule and envy: "At this time, you can see how important it is to have a motherland with a large population. According to me, the global registered users of the campus network have exceeded 5000 million, more than half of them are from China."

Although judging from Huaxia's current national strength and market consumption capacity, the Huaxia users of the campus network are still not as good as European and American users in terms of consumption concept, but at the moment when big data is getting more and more valued, everyone knows that such a huge number of customers Basic means something.

Unlike the CEO of Feixun Communications, Bell Brosnan is more concerned about the increasingly dazzling and more complete functional pages of the campus network.

"It's an incredible user experience." Bell Brosnan praised with a smile: "You are indeed the world's top programmer. Your programming ability is as amazing as your innovation ability."

"But I'm more curious about another thing." Bell Brosnan played with the wine glass in his hand, and asked calmly: "I heard that you just acquired Modun some time ago, and also transferred the campus network and Modun's The research and development team gathered together to prepare to develop the mobile clients of the campus network and several other food, travel and life websites, and install these mobile clients on the handhelds, and also intend to install camera equipment on the handheld computers..."

The main reason why Bell Brosnan pays attention to this point is that he is worried that under the auspices of Lu Chi, the development direction of Modun will conflict with the research and development direction of fruit mobile phones-although we all know that Modun is just a brand of handheld computers, not Mobile communication equipment.Before this, Campus Network had never set foot in the field of mobile communication.But somehow, when Bell Brosnan heard the news, he felt a strong sense of crisis in his heart—especially when he learned that the talented founder of the campus network was also After the news of Wall Street's most high-profile financial genius.

After all, everyone knows that when a programmer with unrestrained imagination and extraordinary ability also has enough wealth to support his squandering inspiration, the perfect combination of capital and technology can always change the world.

Because of this, Bell Brosnan will never underestimate Lu Chi's ability.Judging from Lu Chi's career history, this young man is not a stable young man-whether it is creating a campus network or a variety of life websites, or going to the financial circle with a huge span, this Chinese boy is not a stable young man. There is hardly a moment of rest in his life.

Too much toss.

Faced with Bell Brosnan's vague temptation, Lu Chi suddenly had a whim.He thought again of what his brother had said to him.

"How to connect mobile devices that are lighter than laptops to the Internet, so that young people can surf the Internet at any time, this topic seems quite interesting. I am very interested in this aspect." Lu Chi smiled and explained quite euphemistically Said: "As you know, I am actually a severe Internet addict. Whether it is life or work, I don't want to leave the computer for a moment. It's just that whether it is a desktop computer or a laptop computer, they are too bulky. So I hope to find A perfect replacement - a handheld would be nice."

Hearing this, Bell Brosnan's eyes flickered for a while, he hooked the corner of his mouth at Lu Chi, and said meaningfully: "It just so happens that I am also very interested in this aspect. I think we will have a lot of common topics to talk about."

Lu Chi just smiled and said nothing.

"That's why I like the IT industry the most." The party host who has been standing by smiled slightly and said happily: "It is because this industry is never short of whimsy and strong execution. Compared with other traditional industries, IT The field also has the most young geniuses emerging every year... Everyone's thinking must be active, must be fashionable, and must be ahead of the times. I like this industry for this reason...because we have changed the world."

"To us." As soon as Rufus Connelly finished speaking, the richest man happily raised his glass.Seeing this, everyone raised their glasses and echoed, "Respect us."

After gulping down the red wine in the glass, the richest man looked at the young man standing in front of him and couldn't help but praise him.Being in a high position for a long time, well-informed news and strong capital make these IT bigwigs all big capitalists who are good at investing outside of the IT field.The campus network started at the beginning, but since its establishment, the talent and solid customer base have attracted the attention of interested people.In fact, if it weren't for the relatively strong background of the campus network and the lack of funds itself, after dispelling the coveting of the Smith family with a series of fights, and then conveniently recruited people from the Locke family to help the platform, showing his own badness in all aspects provoke.These people are afraid that they will be the first to reveal that they want to buy the campus network with capital before showing their friendly faces of equal communication.

But now, in the face of young geniuses who are invincible in the financial field, even well-capitalized IT bosses have to politely avoid their edge.Even under the profit-seeking nature of capital, these IT bigwigs who are talented in the professional field and rich in the capital field subconsciously expose their inhumanity, but they are relatively weak in asset management .So the topic lasted for a while, and it was no surprise that it shifted to investment and financial management.

As the host of the party, Connelly mentioned the latest high-end VIP department launched by Eric & Lu Assets while chatting, and several bigwigs took advantage of the trend to discuss the latest 5% management fee and 50% revenue share provision.

"With a lot of money, there must be a job." Connelly said with a smile: "Recently, Wall Street has been in a recession. The financial scandals that broke out one after another have completely made investors lose confidence in Wall Street. But I am not willing to let my The money is lying in the bank account and sleeping late..." So finding a reliable broker has become a must.

Whether it is in terms of reputation or emotion, these Silicon Valley bigwigs actually want to win over such a young genius who can program and speculate in stocks.So when Lu Chi himself felt baffled, these bigwigs who "love the house and black" have agreed to open accounts in his hedge fund.

It is worth mentioning that the Hollywood stars who have been hanging around the party and secretly watching the conversation here also expressed their willingness to open an account with Eric & Lu Assets—

In fact, compared with the Silicon Valley tycoons who are sitting on gold and silver, these celebrities and supermodels who have made their way to the big screen with their talent and beauty are actually more concerned about their own financial issues.After all, these stars who look glamorous on the outside actually know better about the expensive rewards that need to be paid behind the glamor.And the reason why popularity in the entertainment industry is more perishable than time.

So, when the whole party was over, Lu Chi not only became the "most popular" guest at the whole party inexplicably, but also received a cryptic cooperation invitation from Bell Brosnan.At the same time, he also became the best trader of Eric & Lu Assets in 2003-he brought in a large order of nearly billions of M yuan for his company.This immediate effect, if it wasn’t for Lu Chi, who had signed a “no client” clause with Eric Weiss long before he joined Eric Assets, and was later upgraded to be the company’s partner and the general manager of the investment direction People, I'm afraid Eric Weiss will try his best to persuade Lu Chi to accept the company's sales department!
