Chapter 532 Silicon Valley! Silicon Valley!!
San Francisco has always been the center of the San Francisco Bay Area, one of the largest cities in the country, and even the most prosperous city on the west coast of the Pacific.
The population is not large.
This is the financial center of the West Coast and the location of Silicon Valley, the world's most famous technology center.
this time.
Yang Ming came here just for Silicon Valley.
"Boss, do you need anything else?" Yuan Tianfan came in from outside and said.
"Yuan Tianfan, thank you for your hard work. You have been busy all night. Go and rest first. Come see me again at eight in the morning."
"Boss, I should."
He really didn't sleep well tonight.
I went to the airport more than an hour early and waited for another hour at the airport. Basically, I didn't have any rest in the second half of the night.
Yuan Tianfan left first.
Azhu, Zhong Chuhong, and Lin Xiuzhi rested on the plane and are not sleepy now.
. . .
8:00 a.m. San Francisco time.
The sunshine outside has already shined in from the window.
Looking out the window now, you can see the high-rise buildings in San Francisco and even the Golden Gate Bridge in the distance.
San Francisco in 1980 was already very prosperous and developed.
In Yang Ming's view, there is not much difference from San Francisco in the 21st century.
It’s not that San Francisco didn’t develop in the following decades.
With the help of Silicon Valley, San Francisco not only became the world's technology center, but also produced most of the world's Internet companies, as well as various technology companies.
The San Francisco Bay Area, represented by San Francisco, is the most prosperous place among the three major bay areas in the world. It is also the place with the highest GDP and even per capita GDP in M country.
Yang Ming had just slept for a while, trying to adjust the time difference as quickly as possible.
Now that I wake up, I don’t feel anything.
Azhu and Zhong Chuhong had already woken up.
They stayed in the guest room of the presidential suite.
"Master, do you need us to help you wash up?"
"Need not."
Since Yang Ming became more mobile, these Yang Ming did not need the services of Azhu and Zhong Chuhong, which made the two women seem a little disappointed. They felt that they were not as important to Young Master Yang as before.
Yang Ming finished washing.
Now when the sun comes out during the day, the temperature in San Francisco is a little warmer than in the early morning. The temperature is around 12 degrees Celsius, so you still need to wear winter clothes.
Yang Ming, Azhu, Zhong Chuhong, Lin Xiuzhi, Lin Dezhong and others came to the restaurant of Hilton Hotel.
Buffet breakfast is ready here.
In addition, you can also have Western breakfast if you don't like it.
Yang Ming, Azhu and others, as well as Yuan Tianfan, were sitting there eating breakfast.
"Boss, where are we going this morning?"
Yuan Tianfan came here two days in advance.
In addition to booking a hotel at the Hilton Hotel in advance, Yuan Tianfan did not know the boss's schedule in other respects.
"Let's go to Silicon Valley."
Silicon Valley?
Silicon Valley is located south of the San Francisco Bay Area, a metropolitan area in northern California, M country. It is the nickname of the Santa Clara Valley where high-tech industries gather.
Silicon Valley was the first place to research and produce silicon-based semiconductor wafers.
Since its birth, Silicon Valley has been the kingdom of the electronics and computer industries.
Yuan Tianfan naturally knows about Silicon Valley.
He used to study at the University of Chicago. Even though he came to San Francisco, he never went to Silicon Valley.
It’s still quite a distance from downtown San Francisco to Silicon Valley.
Historically, Country M and other high-tech zones in the world have continued to grow and develop, but Silicon Valley is still the pioneer and center of high-tech innovation and development in the world. Venture capital in this region accounts for one-third of the total venture capital in the United States. Silicon Valley of computer companies has grown to approximately 1,500.
A century ago, Silicon Valley was still an orchard, but since the headquarters of high-tech companies such as Intel, Apple, Google, Facebook, Yahoo, Cisco, Oracle, and Tesla settled here, many prosperous towns have emerged.
In just a few decades, Silicon Valley has produced a large number of technology tycoons.
However, except for Intel and Apple, other companies have not yet appeared, so for Yang Ming, these are all opportunities.
"Let's go see Silicon Valley first."
besides.
and Santa Clara University, where Silicon Valley is located.
The strength of this university is far inferior to that of Stanford University in San Francisco.
Historically, the birth of Silicon Valley was in fact inseparable from the continuous support of Stanford technology and talents.
Wherever Yang Ming goes, he wants to meet someone.
He Chaoluo.
Last year, before Christmas, He Chaoluo said goodbye to Yang Ming and left Xiangjiang alone to study at Santa Clara University, majoring in marketing and international business management. I don’t know how she is doing now.
"Yuan Tianfan, do you know anything about Silicon Valley?"
"Boss, it seems they are making semiconductors over there."
"Yes, it's semiconductors."
At this time, in this era, many people have not yet realized the importance of semiconductors.
Including Su Lian.
Su Lian himself has many talents. Su Lian himself has given up semiconductor research and purchases all semiconductors from Europe and the United States.
Historically, many talents from Soviet Union also left and arrived in Country M to develop.
Among them, Sergey, the founder of Google, immigrated to Hong Kong with his parents and later founded Google with Larry Page.
In addition, there is also the founder of Oracle, whose father also immigrated to Country M and gave birth to him with a woman from Country M, and then Oracle was born.
"After breakfast, let's go to Silicon Valley to have a look."
At this time, Yang Ming was really curious about Silicon Valley.
That place is not only the center of future global technology and the Internet, but also has produced a large number of Internet tycoons and wealthy people. In his previous life, Yang Ming had been here many times.
At this time, I don't know what Silicon Valley was like in 1980.
Yang Ming and others finished breakfast at the Hilton Hotel.
Yang Ming was about to leave the Hilton Hotel. After Yang Ming got on his Rolls-Royce, the others took the business car provided by the hotel to leave here and go to Silicon Valley, which is 70 or 80 kilometers away.
The weather today is very good.
At a glance, San Francisco has clear skies.
Yang Ming sat in the Rolls-Royce, and the full-time driver of the Hilton Hotel drove the car.
Chen Zhenhua originally wanted to drive. He was not familiar with the roads in San Francisco. Without navigation, he could only be driven by the Hilton driver.
Chen Zhenhua and Zhang Guohua sat in the car.
. . .
All the way was asphalt, just like riding on the highway.
It was just that during the day, there were still many vehicles on the roads in San Francisco.
Some drivers drove very aggressively, almost all of them drove at a speed of more than 100 per hour.
Coming out of the Hilton Hotel and heading to Silicon Valley, 70 kilometers away.
It would take at least more than two hours.
. . .
"Sir Yang, we have arrived in downtown Santa Clara, the city where Silicon Valley is located."
"Driver, you can stop first."
The professional driver stopped the car.
Yang Ming got out of the car.
When he saw the current Silicon Valley, he suddenly found that it looked very desolate.
