Chapter 1040 Invitation From Harvard

Although Harvard University is the most comprehensive university in the United States and the world, it still has not escaped the impact of the highest school spending list in the United States and the impact of million-dollar beauties.

80% of the girls at Harvard University signed up for the highest school flower list in the United States. The school seems to have become extremely frenetic because of this game. The girls on campus are in groups of three or five. The topic was over, and he screamed excitedly at every turn, which made the whole campus become a little nervous.

Most of the male students at Harvard are practicing "Paradise Town" hard, and some even practice several numbers at the same time, in order to vote more for their favorite objects.

Even Harvard's president lamented at the conference that he had never seen anything other than exams and thesis defenses so popular at Harvard.

The impact of the entire competition on Harvard is far more than mobilizing the enthusiasm of all students, and even many professors have been affected by this competition.

The professor of computer science is conducting an in-depth analysis of "YY" and "Paradise Town" these days, so as to let students understand the respective importance of technology and products, and to more clearly define the core of a computer development: All technology actually serves the product;

Harvard Business School is conducting case analysis and teaching around the successive major moves of Makino Technology in the United States, and analyzing why Makino Technology can use the "promised cost" of tens of millions of dollars to set off more than 100 million dollars in American society. In the eyes of Harvard professors, Makino Technology is a typical representative of profiteers in the new era.

The so-called "promised cost" is actually the cost that does not require actual investment in the early stage. It is announced by the way of promise, and the actual cost of expenditure is actually very small.

Although it didn't cost much, its influence has been maximized in advance because of the promised cost of tens of millions. If Makino Technology opens the advertising bidding of "the highest school flower list in the United States" at this time, according to the evaluation of senior professors, the entire "American school flower list" will be auctioned. The potential advertising revenue space of "School Flower Ranking" can easily reach more than 80 million US dollars.

In other words, before the "promised cost" of tens of millions of dollars of Muye Technology has been paid, it is possible to obtain the principal of all costs and 100% of the profit first, and then calculate the cost of 40 million for the entire activity. , the 40 million yuan of Muye Technology has not been spent, and the 80 million yuan has been recovered even with the profit.

As a result, the four words of Muye Technology have swept the entire Harvard campus, whether it is a student or a professor, and the name Li Mu has also been respected by the entire Harvard University.

At this time, Mark Zuckerberg took the initiative to find his department chair and expressed to him his request to invite Li Mu to Harvard to give a speech on behalf of the school.

When Mark Zuckerberg's department chair heard his request, his first reaction was: Is this guy adoring Li Mu's head showing off? You invited Li Mu to give a speech? Why didn't you invite President Bush to speak? Or invite Bill Gates and Buffett to speak?

In the eyes of the dean of the department, it is more convenient to invite Bill Gates than to invite Li Mu, because Bill Gates will go to the university to give a graduation speech every few years. If Harvard invites him, Bill Gates should also appreciate it. After all He also spent a year at Harvard, but Li Mu is actually extremely unfamiliar to the whole Harvard, no one has seen him, no one can even get in touch with him directly, and even, no one knows Li Mu from Huaxia , will buy Harvard's account.

So, the head of the department asked Mark Zuckerberg, "I'm curious, how are you going to invite Li Mu? Send him an email?"

Mark Zuckerberg lied: "One of my cousins ​​works at Muye Technology, and he can convey the invitation to Li Mu on my behalf and the school."

"Really?" As soon as these words came out, the head of the department immediately froze.

"Of course! And his position is not low. Recently, he often holds meetings with Li Mu."

Mark Zuckerberg said it very firmly.

The head of the department thought that the child was talking nonsense, but as soon as he heard this rhetoric, he immediately believed it.

After all, Muye Technology has recruited a lot of employees in the United States, and it moves frequently. Mark Zuckerberg said that his cousin is in this company, and it seems that it is not impossible.

The dean of the department put away his contemptuous attitude and asked him, "If you are really asked to represent the school to invite Li Mu, how confident are you that he will agree?"

Mark Zuckerberg pretended to be extremely serious and thought for a moment, and said, "I think it's at least 70%!" After that, Mark Zuckerberg bewitched: "Actually, the school only needs to issue an official letter of invitation. It's fine, of course it's best if it succeeds, but if Li Mu really doesn't agree, the school won't have any loss."

Hearing this, the dean of the department was immediately moved by Mark Zuckerberg. This is really nothing to lose. It's not a bad idea to try it. Moreover, Li Mu's popularity and popularity at Harvard University are indeed very high. Gao, if he can be invited over, it will be a good thing for Harvard students to be excited about.

Thinking of this, the head of the department confirmed with Mark Zuckerberg again: "You said that you are working in Muye Technology, and your position is high enough to talk to Li Mu directly, right?"

Although Mark Zuckerberg felt a little guilty, he nodded and said, "That's right!"

"Okay!" The head of the department nodded with satisfaction and said, "I will report the situation to the school leaders, and I will notify you as soon as there is a result."

Mark Zuckerberg was excited, but also a little nervous. After speaking with the dean of the department, he hurriedly left.

The dean of the department immediately reported the matter to the school. Some students have channels to invite Li Mu to give a speech. This is a very good thing for the school. In a school like Harvard, which focuses on cultivating high-end talents, the school leaders are very good. It is hoped that more successful high-end talents will come to Harvard to give speeches. This will not only enhance the enthusiasm of students, give them encouragement and support, but also enhance the influence of the school. Why not do it?

Mark Zuckerberg returned to the dormitory with an uneasy heart. After not much time, he received a call from the dean of the department. On the phone, the dean of the department said to him in a very friendly tone, "Mark, the school has Approved, you can now come to me to get the invitation letter."

"Great!" Mark Zuckerberg said excitedly: "I'll pick it up and fax it to my cousin!"

...

The administrator of the Silicon Valley branch of Makino Technology suddenly received a fax from Harvard University. After reading the fax carefully, she was surprised by the contents.

Generally speaking, this is an official invitation from Harvard University to invite Li Mu to give a personal speech at Harvard University, but this invitation letter is a bit different. The invitation letter is indeed officially issued by Harvard University. It's a bit strange that Mr. Mark Zuckerberg was commissioned by Harvard University to invite Li Mu to give a personal speech at Harvard University. Who is Mark Zuckerberg?

The administrator could not understand this strange invitation letter, but Harvard University did not feel that there was anything wrong with this invitation letter, because Li Mu was completely unconnected to Harvard, and there happened to be a student whose cousin was in Muye. Science and technology work, then it is natural to use this layer of relationship.

Moreover, in Harvard's vision, this invitation letter must be handed over to Li Mu through Mark Zuckerberg's cousin, so he will naturally explain this special invitation letter.

However, the Harvard school did not expect that Mark Zuckerberg actually set a set for them.

After seeing this strange invitation letter, the administrator immediately found Lin Qingya and showed her the fax of the invitation letter. Lin Qingya was also a little silly and confused, but since it was an invitation letter from Harvard University, it was quite It was important, so she immediately took the fax of the invitation and went to Li Mu's office.

Li Mu was meeting an "old friend" in the office at this time, one of the founders of PayPal, Elon Musk. Ever since Li Mu came to the United States, Elon Musk has been thinking about coming to the pier and didn't make an appointment with Lin Qingya. , in a hurry, he ran over by himself.

In Li Mu's eyes, Elon Musk's greatest value at the moment is to stay at PayPal to play his residual heat, so Li Mu lost a bit of his original enthusiasm for him, which made Elon Musk's heart hurt. He felt, This 20-year-old Huaxia young man is developing too fast, and he seems to have despised himself. .

Li Mu didn't expect Elon Musk to be so glass-hearted. When he came to the door this time, Li Mu saw that he was not confident in front of him, so he hurriedly quit work and chatted with him like an old friend for half an hour. .

In Li Mu's eyes, Elon Musk's core value is still several years away, but he should maintain the relationship a little bit, so that when Elon Musk has other entrepreneurial ideas in the future, he may take the initiative to come to him Invest by yourself, what if he finds himself to invest in Tesla impulsively that day?

The two were chatting hotly. Lin Qingya knocked on the door and came in and said to Li Mu, "Mr. Li, Harvard University has sent a fax to invite you to give a speech at Harvard."

Li Mu frowned: "Harvard?"

Lin Qingya said, "Yes, it's Harvard."

Li Mu thought for a moment and said, "You can reply to them for me and say thank you for their invitation. I personally have great respect for Harvard, a world-leading institution with a long history, and I am very happy to share my life experiences with Harvard peers. But the work during this time is too busy, so I hope that next time I come to the United States, I will have such an opportunity.”

Lin Qingya asked regretfully, "Mr. Li, you have refused?"

Li Mu also said helplessly: "Cambridge is too far away, thousands of kilometers, I don't have the intention to go there to toss."

Lin Qingya sighed and said, "Yes, Massachusetts is indeed too far away, and it takes six or seven hours to take a plane one way."

After speaking, Lin Qingyao said again: "Then I will refuse first as you said."

Li Mu nodded: "Please decline."

Lin Qingya looked at the fax copy of the invitation letter in her hand, and said casually, "This invitation letter is quite strange, probably means that Harvard University has commissioned a person named Mark--Zuckerberg to invite you to give a speech, and I don't know about this Mark--Zuckerberg. what does it do."

When Li Mu heard Lin Qingya's pronunciation, his eyelids jumped wildly, suppressing the excitement and shock in his heart, and asked her, "What did you say? I didn't hear it clearly. Say it again."
