Unparalleled True Technology

After staying in New York for a week, Wen Ming returned to Apple in Boston, which was later than Sith and others left.

The final valuation of Instagram is 470 million US dollars. This is because the registered users of Instagram successfully exceeded 10 million during the three days of negotiation. Wen Ming gave up 10% of the equity and got a bank account figure of 47 million US dollars.

It doesn't matter if it's just the number on the account, and Wenming didn't manage to bring the money back.

Not long after the 47 million US dollars entered Wen Ming's account, it was withdrawn again and entered the project of "resurrecting" dinosaurs. This money is Wen Ming's first investment in this project.

"Finally no need to worry about investing money in hardware."

After taking a nap on the plane, Wen Ming walked out of the airport quite refreshed. He has been working intensively this week. The 'Resurrection' dinosaur project has just been established, and there is too much preparation work required, and there is a serious shortage of manpower, so Wen Ming can only participate in it.

When Wen Ming left, Benjamin was still very reluctant. Now he has completely looked down on Cui Chuanming, the favorite student, and Wen Ming's ability has been recognized by him.

"If you stay here and do research with me, I believe the success rate of this project will definitely increase a lot."

Wen Ming also wants to stay and concentrate on research, because he only needs to apply the knowledge in his mind and doesn't need to think too much about problems.

But he can't stay.

A lot of money is needed to 'resurrect' dinosaurs, and the wealth he has now is simply not enough to support this money-burning plan. So, he needs to earn more money to maintain the project.

You can't have both, Wen Ming chose to keep himself busy, earning money while helping Benjamin with project research.

"Boss, this way!"

James was bouncing and waving in the parking lot. He had joined Apple a long time ago, but the department he entered was not the development department that suited his computer major, but the marketing department.

After experiencing the crazy growth of Facebook fans, James already wanted to give up his computer science major because he liked the feeling of being famous. After the number of Facebook fans increased, he also received several advertisements, which made him have a strong interest in promoting products.

James participated in the promotion of "Plants vs. Zombies" and Instagram. Of course, like Cage, he is also a part-time job.

Wen Ming walked up to James and asked curiously, "Didn't you say that a driver came to pick me up? Don't tell me, you are now working part-time as the company's driver."

After laughing a few times, James said, "That's right, I'm now a part-time driver."

While speaking, James led Wen Ming to a car. The 5.5-meter-long Bentley Mulsanne was very conspicuous in the entire parking lot. Although luxury cars in the United States are cheap, they are not bad streets.

"Would you like to try out your new car?"

Before Wen Ming went to New York, he told Sith that he wanted to buy a few cars. In addition to normal transportation, he also needed to show off. The Bentley Mulsanne, which is priced at US$285,000 for the basic naked car, is one of the most suitable commercial vehicles besides Rolls-Royce.

The moment Wen Ming saw this car, he finally felt that he had become a rich man. Whether it was the cash flow from "Plants vs. Zombies" or the 47 million US dollars from the financing of Instagarm, it was just on the account. number.

He couldn't see the real money and didn't use it.

"You better come, I'm afraid he will be scratched."

Wen Ming wanted to open the trunk, but he didn't know how to do it, which seemed very embarrassing. After all, although Wen Ming's past life was related to luxury cars,

But there is no 'hardware' in his pocket that can support this kind of fate!

James smiled excitedly: "I thought you were an omniscient genius. To be honest, when the car was first picked up, I couldn't figure out how to open the trunk."

Wen Ming pretended to be angry and said, "Are you here to discuss with me how to open the trunk of this car?"

James laughed again, and after opening the trunk, he helped Wen Ming put the suitcase in. It is also fortunate that Wen Ming's suitcase is relatively small, with only a few sets of clothes and other small items, otherwise, it is not certain whether it can be put in it.

This kind of business luxury car has compressed the trunk to a great extent for the space of the boss seat in the rear.

Wen Ming finally sat on the boss seat, the reason was that he was tired and didn't want to drive, but James scorned him mercilessly.

"Billionaires dare not drive their own cars for fear of scratches. Do you think anyone will believe it?"

After starting the car, the old driver James drove the luxury car to Apple very skillfully.

Among the four people in Wen Ming's dormitory, every family has a private car, which is very common in the United States. James and Cage are the only ones who have their own vehicles. They often drove their own cars to school when they were in high school.

Wen Ming in this world also has a driver's license, and Wen Ming also had a driver's license in his previous life, but the actual driving age is like a pilot, it is calculated in hours, and the period of time in the driving school is also counted.

"Take care of your car."

Wen Ming didn't mind James' joke at all, but he also changed the subject and asked, "Has Sith notified the share reward mechanism? Employees in the company, how do you react to it?"

It is a big deal to take out shares worth 5 million US dollars now, and in a few months or at most a year, 10 million US dollars worth of shares to buy horse bones. What Wen Ming is most concerned about is not how these shares are allocated, but the employees' reaction to it.

James picked up a few newspapers from the co-pilot, handed them to Wen Ming, and said: "I can only say that you are really too generous. In the past few days, the company has been discussing how to spend the money after getting it." Of course, the most talked about is that your boss is really generous."

Wen Ming took the newspaper, read it and asked, "How are you going to spend it?"

As the real veterans of Apple, James and others get a higher proportion. It is roughly estimated that it can be worth 200,000 US dollars now. When Instagram is actually sold, it may reach 400,000 to 500,000 US dollars.

James said: "Of course I bought a car. Otherwise, what else can I do? But I have to tell you one thing. David doesn't want shares because he doesn't think he's helping."

Cage was in Apple's legal department and James was in marketing and promotion, and they both had substantive jobs. And because David is a medical major, he wasn't able to help much.

Wen Ming was reading the newspaper, and the news marked on it was all the news media touting the generosity of Apple's boss and the value of the Instagram product.

You don't need to ask to know that these news are spent on public relations.

"Don't he know how much he has helped me?"

Among the three people including James, Wen Ming wants to thank David the most, because it was David who made him meet Cui Chuanming and Benjamin, and then had the opportunity to get a dinosaur blood sample from Teresa Roy .

Moreover, Instagram was able to be valued at 470 million US dollars at this time because of Teresa Roy, a fairly reasonable capitalist. Without David, it would be impossible for Wen Ming to get on line with Teresa Roy so quickly.

James asked: "Are you talking about your plan to 'resurrect' dinosaurs? Sith has already persuaded David, using this reason, but David didn't accept it very much. His reason was that there was him without him. You can probably find Professor Benjamin because he was at Harvard before."

Compared with James, Cage, and Wen Ming, who did not encounter a disaster, David's family conditions are the most ordinary. He is a single-parent family, and his father is a yacht repairman on the marina.

James added: "In fact, even Cage and I think that we shouldn't have so many shares, after all, they are very valuable."

Wen Ming smiled and said: "Then help me more in return in the future. Of course, I don't accept physical promises, because my sexual orientation is normal."
