The Millennium Semiconductor Survival Guide

This sentence is often said to him by a senior investor whom Zhou Xin knows. Opportunities that everyone can see are no longer opportunities.

People who only realized Douyin in 2023, and then want to do Douyin traffic, can only face a Red Sea market and a bunch of bloggers who want to cut your leeks.

Wu Shiqiang was a little surprised, because he knew Zhou Xin's resume very well, so he knew that Zhou Xinyan transferred to Berkeley.

I started my own business after arriving in Berkeley, and I have never heard of Zhou Xin investing.

However, he obviously didn't show surprise on the surface, but nodded repeatedly: "What you said makes sense.

My thinking is still not in place, the main reason is that I am a little anxious about the change of identity, which is relatively superficial thinking. "

Zhou Xin continued: "In fact, investment and academics are the same. The easier it is to discover the result, the sooner it will be done by the predecessors. The harder it is to produce the result, you have more chances to make it.

You just gave the example of online shopping. This example is very good. It is precisely because Huaguo does not have this basic condition, and everyone thinks that this is not a good business.

But this event itself has proved its success in Nasdaq. There are four listed companies in Nasdaq that focus on online shopping, and there are three other companies besides the top Amazon.

And Amazon's valuation is approaching $30 billion.

American has only 280 million people, and Huaguo has 1.3 billion people.

A market of 280 million people can accommodate 4 listed online shopping companies, how many companies can Huaguo's market of 1.3 billion people accommodate? How huge is this market?

After Huaguo's infrastructure construction is ready and various logistics systems are smooth, even if we can obtain this investment opportunity, how many times the price will we have to pay?

Of course, I am not accusing you, but just give you some inspiration from the perspective of investment.

After you return to China in the future, it will be very troublesome for us to make overseas calls, and everyone still has jet lag.

So while we are all in San Francisco, I would like to share with you some of my thoughts. "

Wu Shiqiang was convinced, because Zhou Xin's thinking was indeed deeper than his.

He nodded again and again, and Zhou Xin continued: "As a new investment fund, we need representative cases.

In this way, in the future, some easy-to-pick peaches will be our turn.

After you return to China, I will pay you according to the salary you received in the San Francisco branch, plus 30%.

Performance salary is calculated separately, according to the specific investment situation.

After you return to China, you need to start the establishment of the entire company. After HR is hired, you talk to him in detail about the construction of the salary system. Your performance salary will be based on the performance salary in the salary system construction. "

Then Zhou Xin added: "In addition, you don't need many people in the investment department, two or three are enough.

You take them to get in touch with as many projects as possible and see a few more companies. I need to learn as much as possible about the situation in Huaguo.

If you can, learn more about the semiconductor companies in Huaguo, which specialize in chips, and companies with technology. Even if these companies have no commercial value, you still need to make a detailed report to me.

Forget it, if this is the case, two or three people are too few, let's increase it to ten people. "

Zhou Xin understands the development of technology, but he doesn't know who are the semiconductor companies in Huaguo before and after the millennium, and which ones are really technological.

He doesn't understand the status quo.

After the Hanxin incident, there were too many semiconductor companies that collapsed in Huaguo, and there were very few semiconductor companies that could survive from 1999 to 2018 when the industry reversed.

"The other most important thing is the legal department, the contract must be clear, and there must be no room for the other party to exploit loopholes.

All situations need to be considered.

My biggest request to you is to build a top-level legal team, and don't worry about spending money on this part.

Find the most experienced legal staff in the industry.

When entrepreneurs hear our name, their first reaction is a famous investment institution, and their second reaction is that the other party has the strongest legal department in the Eastern Hemisphere. "

Zhou Xin played a trick that the other party didn't know, Wu Shiqiang nodded again and again: "Don't worry about this.

I still have many friends in the legal field, and I will definitely choose the legal counsel with the most experience in the financial industry. "

It is not uncommon for investors and entrepreneurs to quarrel over interests.

Various entrepreneurs use contract loopholes to kick investors out.

Or transfer the company's technology and funds, leaving an empty shell for investors.

Zhou Xin had heard such things a lot in Lujiazui.

Especially at dinner, people tend to become emotional when they drink some wine at this time. As long as one of the investors starts to tell the story of how he was cheated by the entrepreneur, the others will follow suit.

It's just that Zhou Xin, from the perspective of entrepreneurs, felt that their performance was too exaggerated.

Now that his identity has changed, from being an entrepreneur to also being an investor, of course he has to make use of the wrong experiences of his predecessors.

It also let the reckless entrepreneurs in Huaguo see the power of the law.

Of course, there are also people who touch him with a red line, and the red line is gone. When encountering this kind of person, they can only consider themselves unlucky.

Finding Wu Shiqiang can also effectively avoid this situation.

Although Wu Shiqiang is not well-connected enough, he is still good enough to recognize people.

"Then there happens to be an investment opportunity tomorrow, and I'll take you to have a look at this project together."

"Hi Larry, I was referred by Scott Hassan"

Before Zhou Xin finished speaking, Larry Page got up and gave him a hug by the way:

"Newman, I've heard you, since your Angry Birds release, I've seen a lot of my co-workers in our garage playing it during their breaks.

I really like your games myself! "

With another white man sitting quietly on the sofa, Larry Page looked particularly outgoing.

Amo Wasser, the paralegal assistant arranged for Zhou Xin by the law firm in San Francisco before, gave Zhou Xin a pleasant surprise.

In a casual chat, the other party said that she knew Scott Hassan.

Scott Hassan, who was part of Google's founding team, wrote most of the code for the original Google search engine before leaving Google before it was officially formed.

Zhou Xin didn't remember this incident at first, but as his memory became clearer, after he remembered who Scott Hassan was, he followed Aimo Wasser to contact him.

When Zhou Xin said he wanted to invest in Google, Scott Hassan said he could help him contact Larry Page and Sergey Brin.

That is, the two founders of Google.

"Haha this is a very special game, even though many people in the world like it, it still makes me happy to be recognized by you."

"This is our other founder, Sergey Brin!" Larry Page quickly introduced to Zhou Xin.
