Business: The rise of tech giants

As a lawyer, Miller has outstanding ability to deal with people.

He greeted Hilgebrin like an old friend:”Hello, buddy, do you also like to use the ancient song search engine?”

Hilgebrin smiled reservedly:”This search engine is for me and my friends. Developed together.”

A look of surprise appeared on Miller’s face:”Oh! This is really great! Are you the developers and operators of Guge?”

“Yes. I’m Hilary Brin, and this is my partner Larry Page.”

Hilgaibrin is obviously better at socializing, and Larry Page has not said a word until now.

Chen Lin, the translator next to Li Xinghai, quickly translated their conversation for Li Xinghai.

Sure enough, they are the two founders of Guge People, the images of these two people gradually overlapped with the impression in Li Xinghai’s mind.

“This is Xinghai Li, an investor from Daxia, who came to California to look for potential Internet technology companies.”Miller introduced Li Xinghai to Hilgebrin and Larry Page.

After listening to Miller’s words, their eyes lit up.

The Daxia young man in front of them looked very young, but his temperament was very calm. He was here. Amric invested?

And they were looking for Internet technology companies?

No matter where they came from, as long as they were 380 investors, it was a life-saving straw for the two of them.

Now Hilary Brin and Larry Page are still They are not famous figures in later generations. They are just two PhDs who have maxed out their credit cards and are struggling to start a business.

In Stafford, there are more PhDs than trees planted on the ground.

Li Xinghai smiled and said:”The two of them are from Guge. Founder? Guge’s search technology is indeed very good. Nowadays, there are more and more websites. With ancient songs, people can quickly find what they need.”

Chen Lin translated Li Xinghai’s words into English. Hilgebrin and Larry Page looked a little excited.

“I’m glad to meet you here. Your encouragement really gives me a lot of confidence.” Hilgey Brin said.

Larry Page also nodded.

It was difficult to start a business, and the two people, who were almost at the end of their rope, felt excited when they heard Li Xinghai’s words of approval.

Chen Lin translated Brin’s words into Chinese.

You should really learn English. You will be dealing with foreigners a lot in the future. Talking directly to the other party saves time, and you can also directly understand the meaning of the other party’s words.

Otherwise, what should I do if the translation is wrong or malicious misinterpretation (bgdd)?

This thought flashed through Li Xinghai’s mind, and he said with a smile:”The ancient song is very good, you should work hard to expand its reputation, I believe its future is very promising.”

His recognition and praise made Hilary Brin and Larry Page very happy

“Thank you, thank you, friend from Eastern Daxia, your encouragement really gives me great confidence. Hilgabrin came over and shook hands with Li Xinghai enthusiastically.

Larry Page was silent for a few seconds and asked Li seriously:”Do you believe that ancient songs will be successful?””

“certainly! Li Xinghai nodded affirmatively:”I have personally used Ancient Songs, and I like its pages very much.” Man, the website design nowadays is so complicated, I think it’s very unique, it’s really great. I certainly believe it will be successful.”

His words made both Hilgabrin and Larry Page laugh.

Hilgabrin patted Larry Page on the shoulder:”I said that ancient songs are very good. Look, now I have got them. Approval from friends of Eastern Daxia.”

Larry Page nodded slightly and whispered:”When Miller introduced him just now, he said he was an investor, right?”

The eyes of the two people intertwined, giving birth to something called hope.

At this time, Miller on the side said in a timely manner:”Mr. Li is a famous investor in Daxia. He has invested in several Internet companies in Daxia. The company is a well-known venture capital investor and angel investor in Daxia.”

For Hilary Brin and Larry Page, this seems to be a very good opportunity.

Compared with ordinary investment, there is an important difference between angel investment and venture capital, which is that even if the investee loses money, With the money, they do not need to bear any financial or legal responsibility.

What do ancient songs have at this time?

Hilge Brin and Larry Page did not even register a company, only a domain name and website, among the employees The third one is still in the recruitment plan.

Guge’s reputation is indeed good.

But now there are also many competitors in the market.

Excite, Yahoo, 1nktomi, and altavista, which already accounts for most of the search market.

Guge is in Among them, it is just an inconspicuous wave now.

There are many difficulties facing Hilgey Brin and Larry Page, such as debt, credit card bills, and promotion expenses.

The only way to solve these problems is money.

After listening to Miller explain in detail that Li Xinghai is an investor, a venture capital investor or an angel investor, the first thought of the two of them was, can they convince him to invest in Guge? Can they give us money

? The expressions and eyes made Li Xinghai feel at ease. He could now confirm that the other party was very short of money.

Just be short of money.

Hilgebrin and Larry Page had already begun to think about this young man from Daxia. To do venture capital, what about his strength?

After all, venture capital and angel investment can only be done by people or companies with strong financial strength.

Li Xinghai was thinking about how to get the two founders of Guge to accept his offer. Investment.

And Hilary Brin and Larry Page have already begun to count his money.

At this stage, Gu Ge only needs money, whether it is classmates, friends, businessmen or even foreign investors, all he needs to do is give money.

Because of the risks There is no need to pay back investment and angel investment money. Once you get it, you can pay off all the bills first.

Hilgebrin was still thinking about how to speak.

Larry Page could no longer bear it. As a technician, He has an upright character:”Mr. Li, you just said that you appreciate ancient songs and you are a venture capitalist, so are you willing to invest in us?”

Chen Lin quickly translated Larry Page’s words. Li Xinghai’s face and eyes remained unchanged, and he tapped his fingers gently on the table. For a moment, the scene became cold and silent.

Hilgebrin secretly complained in his heart. Both parties are now I don’t understand. Larry Page brought up investment so rashly and was too eager.

I don’t say whether it will scare the other party away. Even if the other party has this idea, it’s hard for them to raise the price.

Slightly The knocking sound seemed to hit the apex of Hilgabrin and Larry Page’s hearts. They waited for Li Xinghai to speak with some anxiety.

But they didn’t know that Li Xinghai was already happy at this time.

It was so smooth.

He just revealed that he was an investor, and he attracted Hilga Brin and Larry Page.
