Chapter 783: Stunning Appearance
A few cunning guys certainly know that there is no such thing as a free lunch. The things that are free are often the most expensive.
free? This guy is crazy? Or, it's just an April Fool's joke.
Nima, you are advertising all over the place for free things. You have money and nowhere to spend it. Hmph, labor and management just don't download.
People who eat melons may watch, or they may think it is a joke. The bigwigs in the IT industry don't think so, even if there is something tricky, they don't need to figure it out.
Then wait, damn bastard, your movie premiere is in Europe, why not the software in Europe. At the very least, you don't have to stay up late at night.
"Boss, the backup server needs to be enabled, it's not enough at all."
"Damn, this is crazy. What about the fiber optic backbone they said, forget it, start two backup servers at the same time, ready to split."
Putting it at twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, it's really not that William White is hypocritical, and he doesn't like staying up late.
In this day and age, the penetration rate of computers is not high. At twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, all businesses should close.
"Tom, there are not enough servers, and we will add more tomorrow. See who has the stock in stock, or has a fast delivery time."
"Okay, boss, I'll ask in the morning. Actually, you can ask now, through ICQ. These bastards must not be sleeping now. If they do, tell them to get up and pee."
For the boss's bad taste, fat cat Tom is also unable to complain. However, since the boss said to try, then try it.
Of course, those who welcome this guy will definitely be cursing. It's one thing for someone not to sleep, it's another for you to harass them.
"Tom, you see, after having ICQ, I will know whether it is convenient for you or not. If you are online, we can communicate, if not, then wait."
"Ahem, boss, what do you mean?"
"Nonsense, is the function of darkening the avatar really just for fun?"
Tom was speechless, he found that when he was with the boss, he was always a bit stupid. No matter how entangled he is, a group of IT elites have been numb by shock.
In today's Silicon Valley, a good idea can be exchanged for investment. You don't have to go to any garage, as long as someone is interested in your things, an angel will kiss your forehead immediately.
On the basis of venture capital, William White added another round of angel investment. The risk of this thing is more dangerous than venture capital.
Venture capital can at least see something, while angel investment really has only one concept. Sometimes, the concept is not perfect yet.
William White dared to vote, but those guys on Wall Street didn't dare. Nima, why does this thing look so much like a government support fund?
Actually, they got one thing wrong. William White is not the Virgin, so he will not do meaningless things. Rather than saying that he is investing in projects, it is better to say that he is investing in people.
A professor is easier to get than a doctorate, and a doctorate is easier than a master's degree. Of course, the project also needs to be reviewed, and you can't do it if you are too imaginative. How much depends on the spectrum.
Of course, when these projects are successful, you won't think of them as angels. William White told his men that once one company succeeds, they can invest in at least one hundred more companies.
Regardless of the harsh conditions, many people are still willing to accept. This is not just a question of money. What the White Fund provides is a series of help.
"What, you said your name is Anthony, it's impossible, that guy went to Tu'ao to herd sheep."
"Jess, you bastard, I'm running a farm. By the way, why aren't you in the group, many of my classmates are."
"Group? What is that?"
"Hahaha, you're still a software engineer, my goodness, you're so bad. Wait, you just click OK."
Jess is depressed, what about the software engineer, I need fucking time. Nima, to be despised by a shepherd boy.
"Fuck, so many people?"
"Everyone, everyone, welcome to join Jess."
Twisting his sore neck, Bill Gates was very depressed. Although William White didn't fool him, he didn't plan to play with him either.
Damn, this thing should be added to my new system. Wait, why is it free? Not an April Fool's joke. Is this bastard crazy.
Overnight, this newly-launched software swept the screen of the whole world in an instant.
"Steve, what's the matter with you, my busy ass is smoking right now."
"Michael, your computer is selling well?"
"Steve, don't you talk nonsense? Compaq sells better. God, the bastard, he can't just tell me."
Master Qiao is a little speechless, he is still a shareholder of Compaq, why should he tell you. Besides, if you sell out of stock, William White's short-term profit will be the greatest.
Old Joe had just inquired about Apple's situation, and he just wanted to make sure.
There is no ICQ that supports Apple at all, and this is where he is a little depressed. They didn't say no to development, they just said there was not enough time.
Cough cough, these bastards don't bother to support Apple when they have time to make multilingual versions. How pessimistic this is.
Sure enough, the U.S. stock market just opened, the semiconductor industry ushered in a general rise, and the only one that fell was Apple.
Well, he can't complain about William White yet. You are not the CEO of Apple now, what position do you use to complain.
"Boss, I'm afraid we need to revise our goals. Too many companies have benefited from this wave of market conditions.
Just now, William White placed another huge order. "
"By the way, Andy, what happened to that software? Is it that exaggerated?"
"Boss, it's really easy to use. The secretary can send me any documents I need, even if I'm on a business trip abroad.
Also, this thing is free. He spent such a high price, is it for free? "
Not to mention Andy was dizzy, the old guy from Dalmore was the same. Today's world is becoming more and more incomprehensible.
There are software that can sell for hundreds of thousands of dollars, and gadgets that can sell for tens of dollars. Ahem, and free Big Macs.
"Free? Andy, his search engine is also free, right? Do they have a profit model now?"
"It's just a very meager advertising fee. Compared with their expenditure, it is completely different." Andy shrugged disapprovingly. These things may make money in the future, but it is very difficult now.
"He must have a way to make money, go ask, when will the A round of financing be."
"Okay, boss, I'll ask right away, they ordered a bunch of servers, this thing is too expensive."
Burning money, William White naturally knows. However, he didn't care about this. Even if you don't know how he makes money, it's not like there are investment banks sending money.
"Ahem, what, the valuation is at least 500 million, are you sure you heard correctly?"
"Well, boss, Tom really said so, and Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley both have investment intentions."
Bill Gates is very depressed, how dare you ask for a price of 500 million for a company that has not been online for 24 hours. This is unreasonable.
"Ahem, how many shares will they take?"
"No more than 15%. From that tone, it seems that I don't really want to sell."
Of course, William White didn't want to sell it. If it wasn't for the future, it would be better to be a private company. Once you become a public listed company, many of your things must be made public.
