Chapter 226 A Third Party Intervenes in Yahoo and Merchant Consultants

The last time Li Xiaofan returned to China to invest in 327 treasury bonds, he took A Yong to Hainan to buy huanghuali logs and furniture. He also bought a dilapidated Haihuang jewelry box from Tai Ge. Later, when he returned to the hotel, Li Xiaofan went to the mezzanine of the jewelry box. I found eight strings of fine Qinan bracelets.

Among them, a string of precious Bai Qinan was given to Mr. Tang by Li Xiaofan, who couldn't put it down. Later, Tang Jiaming also asked Tang Jiaming to give Li Xiaofan the latest Motorola 8900 mobile phone as a gift.

This time, before Li Xiaofan came to the banquet, he remembered that Tang Xinyi was studying Buddhist scriptures, so he took out the remaining seven strings of Qinan bracelets from the house, and randomly selected a bunch that looked a little more colorful and gave them to her as a gift. Gift.

It was thought that Mr. Tang recognized it as a precious Yingge Green Qinan bracelet.

Mr. Tang took the Yingge Green Qinnan bracelet from Xinyi's hand, put it under his nose and smelled it, and praised: "It smells so good, this fragrance! It has strong penetrating power and a very special fragrance." Cool smell, so comfortable! ”

Then he told Xinyi: "Xinyi, you have to take good care of it. The Qinan bracelet that Afan gave you is a precious treasure, a good thing!"

Xinyi disagreed: "The smell is indeed good. But, dad, isn't it just a string of wooden beads? Why do you call it a treasure?"

"Girl, you don't understand this. Qinan belongs to the top spice in the agarwood category and is incomparable to any spice. There is an old saying: Three lives are lucky enough to hear the fragrance of Qinan, which shows how precious Qinan is. Good Qinan can't be bought with money, it can only be obtained by fate..."

Fujiwara Kyoko interjected: "When you talk about agarwood, I think of one of our Japanese national treasures called 'Ran Shetai'. It is now preserved in Shoso-yuan of Todaiji Temple in Nara, Japan. Shoso-yuan is a Tibetan monastery affiliated to Todaiji Temple. The treasure house mainly contains treasures collected by Emperor Shomu during his lifetime. Lansado is a yellow ripe incense with a history of more than 1,300 years. It is known as the best incense in the world and is regarded as a national treasure of Japan. Emperors and generals of the past have cut small pieces for use or rewarded meritorious ministers. According to records, Ashikaga. Yoshimitsu, Oda Nobunaga, Emperor Meiji, etc. all used it..."

Mr. Tang said: "Xingzi, the orchid luxury you mentioned still belongs to the yellow ripe fragrance. The one Afan sent to Xinyi is Qinan. Qinan is the top treasure among agarwood! I once read an old pharmacopoeia from mainland China. Introduction, mentioning Qinanxiang Characteristics: Smelling its smell is like practicing Qigong. It can eliminate poisonous qi externally, and can remove bad qi from the body internally and regulate the movement of true qi in the body. Wearing it on the body can ward off evil spirits, clear away filth, clear the heart and calm the mind. Wen Qinan can unblock the five internal organs and the six meridians, and ventilate the air. Promotes blood circulation, calms the mind and refreshes the brain..."

After Mr. Tang said this, Tang Xinyi liked the Yingge Green Qinan bracelet gift from Li Xiaofan even more.

After the dinner, there was drizzle in the air when they went out. Ye Niya drove Li Xiaofan and took him back to the dormitory.

On the way, Yenia asked: "Afan, have you been in contact with Daisha recently?"

Li Xiaofan felt a little embarrassed: "Aunt Yenia, I have been busy with business recently and haven't had much contact..."

Yenia smiled and said: "Afan, I asked Daisha later. She feels quite good about you. You can take the initiative to contact her more when you have time. She recently had a graduation report performance, and you can invite family members and Friends are participating, and I’ll invite you to come with me when the time comes!”

"Oh well……"

After returning to the dormitory, Tang Xinyi called again and chatted with Li Xiaofan on the phone for a while before saying goodbye.

"Fan, you must come to Hangzhou to see me more when you have time, otherwise I will be lonely!"

Li Xiaofan smiled and said: "My dear, when you arrive in such beautiful Hangzhou and West Lake, I suspect you may forget me by then..."

"Haha, I don't know how!"

Before going to bed, Li Xiaofan remembered what Lin Muchiu had asked him to do and made a call to Yang Zhiyuan who was far away in Silicon Valley.

"Good morning, Jerry."

"Hi, good evening, Affan, why are you free to call me today?"

"Jerry, there is such a thing. I have a new project planned to be settled in the Singapore Science Park. Then the heads of the investment department of Ascendas Group, the operator of the Singapore Science Park, plan to come to Silicon Valley next week to investigate the Internet industry, and they want to take some time in the meantime. I’ll pay you a visit. Would you like to receive me? I’ve already sent the introduction to Singapore Science Park and Ascendas Group to your email address.”

"It's convenient. As long as they make an appointment with me in advance, if I don't go on a business trip, there will be no problem!"

"Okay, Jerry, thank you. In addition, they also want to use you to visit Marc Andreessen, the founder of the Netscape browser. Isn't it convenient?"

Jerry Yang thought for a moment and said: "Netscape's Marc Andreessen? In this way, if I go to that Mexican restaurant for lunch and meet him, I will ask him then. If he agrees, I can write an email reply to you. ?"

"Okay, thank you very much, Jerry!"

The next morning, Li Xiaofan went to the OUB center office in Raffles Place. After turning on the computer, he received an email from Jerry Yang.

Jerry Yang said in the email that he later went to the Taco Bell Mexican restaurant for lunch and met Marc Andreessen of Netscape. When Marc Andreessen heard that a beautiful woman from a high-tech park in Singapore was visiting, he agreed immediately. Yang Zhiyuan asked Li Xiaofan to tell him in advance the time of Ascendas Group's planned visit, so that he and Marc Andreessen could set aside time in advance to receive guests from Ascendas Group in Singapore...

After receiving Yang Zhiyuan's confirmation, Li Xiaofan dialed Lin Muchiu's phone number.

"Good morning, Manager Lin, I'm Li Xiaofan."

"Hi, Director Li, good morning!"

"Manager Lin, I contacted the founder of Yahoo, Jerry Yang, last night about the matter you asked me to do. He replied that there was no problem. You are welcome to come over at any time."

After hearing the news, Lin Muchiu said happily: "That's great, thank you, Director Li!"

"In addition, I just turned on my computer after arriving at the office and received an email from Jerry Yang. Jerry Yang told me in the email that he later met Marc Andreessen, the founder of Netscape, when he went out to have lunch. Marc Andreessen has also promised to accommodate your visit. Now please tell me the approximate time of your visit to Yahoo and Netscape next week, and I will send it to Jerry Yang so that they can arrange it in advance..."

After hearing this, Lin Muchiu was overjoyed: "Wow, really, that's great! Director Li, I will have a meeting with my colleagues in the department later, and I will send you an email with the approximate visit time before I get off work at noon. Thank you so much , Director Li, when you are free, I would like to treat you to a meal to thank you!”

"Haha, we have a long way to go. Next time we settle in your park, there will be plenty of opportunities. We will inevitably trouble you in the future, Manager Lin. Please take care of us when the time comes!"

"Director Li, you're welcome. By the way, I forgot to tell you that if you help us introduce project merchants, if the project is finally successfully implemented in our park, we will have an intermediary fee to reward you personally!"

"Wow, that's great. From now on, I might as well be your park's investment consultant and professionally help you attract investment..." Li Xiaofan teased.

In his previous life, he did work as an investment consultant in his hometown of Ningdong County. Later, after old classmate Wu Xiuli was promoted to deputy director of the Ningdong County Commerce Bureau, in charge of investment promotion, the county and the Commerce Bureau jointly set up an investment promotion office in the magical city of Shanghai and sent two young people to stay here. Shanghai investment. The two young people had just graduated from college and knew nothing. At that time, Wu Xiuli asked Li Xiaofan to help a lot, and even gave Li Xiaofan a red book of "Ningdong County Investment Ambassador" with the seal of their county government...

"Haha, yes, we are indeed considering sending a colleague to Silicon Valley to recruit investment. Director Li, if you are interested and don't mind that our temple is small, you can also apply..." Lin Muchiu also joked.

The next night after Li Xiaofan helped Lin Muchiu confirm the visit time with Yang Zhiyuan and Marc Andreessen next week, Li Xiaofan received a call from Yang Zhiyuan.

"Afan, are you free to come to San Francisco next week?"

"Jerry, what's the emergency?"

"Recently we have contacted a very powerful investment institution from Tokyo. After their research, they are very optimistic about our project and are eager to invest in our Yahoo company. They plan to visit us again next week. Mr. Moritz and I would like to invite you Come over too, and let us shareholders communicate with each other face to face..."

Oh shit, a third party is going to invest in Yahoo so soon!
