Chapter 1485 What Are You Looking for Me For?
Xiao Qi is very familiar with the living habits of Americans. Anyone who is fat must like to eat meat.
So I took Hoffman directly to a roast duck restaurant with the best taste, and let him try what is the best roast duck.
Hoffman really devoured his food, drinking red wine while eating the finished roll made by the waiter next to him, it was like an emperor enjoying a full banquet!
"Oh... Qi Shao, this duck roll tastes so good... And this one, what's it called? Sweet bean sauce? Cucumber shreds?... Beautiful lady, please have two more! Thank you! No green onions! The duck will be given again I'll have a plate!"
Hoffman learned this rare name from Tong Wencong. Although the accent is a bit strange, it is easy to pronounce when you are familiar with it.
Hoffman and Xiao Qi were the only ones eating, but there were already seven plates of duck on the table, among which Xiao Qi ate five plates alone, and Hoffman only ate two plates.
Because of Xiao Qi's martial arts practice, under the recuperation of his internal energy, he consumed a lot of energy, so he can eat it naturally.
Hoffman has already been stimulated, he thought to himself that my figure alone can compare to the two of you, and I am a meat-eating American, how could I give you too many books?
So after opening their stomachs to eat, the final result was that Xiao Qi ate seven dishes, and Hoffman ate four. No matter how he could eat normally, he almost couldn't walk in the end.
In order to digest, Hoffman was walking on the street while drinking thick high-quality black tea.
It's not that cold in the capital in October, and those girls who like to show off are still dressed in very trendy clothes, many of which made Hoffman whistle and greet them happily.
it is good.
"King of connections in Silicon Valley" is also a common man, after drinking a little wine. The free and unrestrained side of the natural character is revealed, and it is normal to talk about it.
It's a pity that none of those girls are knowledgeable.
Seeing that Hoffman was only wearing a plaid shirt and vest, a pair of ordinary jeans, and he was so fat and sloppy. The smile is so wretched, I completely thought that he was a foreign farmer who came to China to ask for a living, and he didn't know whether he was a billionaire or a dollar.
However, Xiao Qi next to him made many female girls take a second look, because Feng Kexin and Qiao Guoer chose the boy's clothes, and they were all top-notch brands. Delicate and handsome, it will naturally make people feel that he is extraordinary. It's very youthful and sunny.
Hoffman didn't care so much, he was just shouting for fun, he didn't really want to pick up girls.
In fact, Asian women are all the same in the eyes of Europeans-basically they are very ugly, and basically they don't look at them.
In the past, Europeans and Americans were often referred to as "ghosts", "Raksha ghosts" and so on in our country. In fact, it was just the difference between the two races. It's just that now we think blondes are beautiful, but they don't. I find Chinese women with flat faces and flat noses ugly.
Just walked all the way back to the booked hotel. Hoffman went into the room to pack his luggage and took another shower. Then he sat in a slightly quieter coffee shop lively and vigorously.
"Qi Shao, you didn't ask me to come here for the sake of eating, drinking and having fun. We are also acquaintances, so you just cut to the chase, lest I guess." Hoffman said with a glint in his eyes.
"May I listen first. You guessed why I asked you?" Xiao Qi asked curiously.
"There are only two possibilities. The first is that you want me to help you manage the Fairy Lab, but this possibility is unlikely. The second is that you have taken a fancy to another Silicon Valley technology company and want to match me up , buy it for you." Hoffman drank his coffee. He said slowly: "The possibility of the second one is not small, and I think the company you want to acquire is not small, otherwise you wouldn't seriously ask me to come to Huaguo for negotiation."
Regarding the fact that Xiao Qi asked Hoffman to come to China instead of going to the United States when he had something to discuss, he had nothing to worry about.
Anyway, Hoffman has now left the position of LinkedIn's CEO, and he still has relatively free time. It is also a good pastime to come to China to play and relax.
Besides, Hoffman was very interested in what Xiao Qi wanted to talk to him about.
Hoffman's interest is investment. If he is interested in the business that Xiao Qi wants to discuss, he wants to cooperate with Xiao Qi——Since Xiao Qi asked him to come, he must be useful, and it seems that Using him is the best consideration, so with this, he doesn't need to receive any compensation, but if it's really interesting, then he would also like to take a share.
After all, the business of the richest man in the world, especially the business of a careful and stingy Oriental like Xiao Qi, can get involved, but it is very rare.
Xiao Qi nodded and smiled, "You are half right in your guess. It is true that you are going to be a matchmaker, but it is not a purchase."
As he said, Xiao Qi handed the stack of documents beside him to Hoffman, "These are some patent ideas I registered two years ago, take a look at what we need to do to make them better. !"
Hoffman immediately became interested, took the folder and looked at it seriously.
Don't look at him as fat as a pig, but this person is very smart, just listen to what Xiao Qi said before, and you will know that he has been reminded, don't think about getting ideas here, and then go back to start your own stove .
Hoffman can become the "king of connections in Silicon Valley". Of course, his personality is very open-minded. He doesn't care about Xiao Qi's reminders, but admires Xiao Qi's rigor and caution. Only such a person can create without saying a word. A shocking artifact like the dream pad came out.
"Wow, I love this idea!"
"It's not bad either!"
"Haha, I've vaguely thought of this idea before, but I didn't expect Qi Shao to explain it so systematically."
"Well, if you think about it carefully, it seems interesting."
"..."
Accompanied by bursts of exclamation, Hoffman's relaxed face gradually showed a serious expression.
After so many years of career in the workplace, Hoffman's vision is already very high. Although he may not be able to create those magical companies by himself, he can catch those worth investing in through planning one by one. This is also an important reason why he is very successful in angel investment.
Now he has seen a total of three creative ideas, all of which are amazing, and any one of them will not be weaker than the companies he founded before, or even stronger! ! (to be continued..)
