Global monopoly of technology

Chapter 689 [Use your opponent's resources to incubate your own company]

Marcus Lyle’s face is a standard European and American face. The “Lyle Binary” company he founded is located in Menlo Park, California, less than 40 kilometers away from the headquarters of Bluestar Technology North America.

Lyle Binary is a standard start-up technology company, and currently there are 21 employees in the company plus Marcus Lyle himself.

Strictly speaking, there are 20 people. These 20 employees don't know that their BOSS can't be regarded as a natural person at all, but this is not the point. The point is that no one knows that Marcus Lyle is a bionic person.

...

Located in a building workshop in Menlo Park, Lyle Binary Company was established here, a few men and women plus a garage, workshop or something, the start of a standard Silicon Valley start-up technology company.

At this moment, Marcus Lyle and a few young engineers are testing several drones together, and the boss will end up with insufficient manpower.

Luo Sheng did not give him too much start-up capital. He only gave him a $2 million angel round of financing through anonymous investment. Marcus Lyle’s layout to make money is secondary, and it is to enter the opponent’s interior. the main purpose.

After a few months, the two million dollars of funds were almost spent.

At this moment, an employee rushed to the workshop excitedly, his eyes locked on Marcus Lyle and loudly said: "BOSS, an investor has come to his door, and he is a superstar in the technology circle. !"

"Wow~~"

Other employees immediately cheered, because they also hold certain option stocks of Lyle Binary. The company started with a standard start. At the beginning, it wanted to attract some outstanding engineers to your small workshop to start a business. In addition to the salary and the founder’s skills , The company's prospects are good, but it has to share the company's future surplus value, that is, allotment.

Otherwise, excellent engineers in Silicon Valley won't kill you. Foreigners are very realistic, but they are understandable.

Layle Binary also set aside 12% of its equity as a reserve for the option pool, as a reserve for absorbing more outstanding top talents in the future.

"Who?"

Marcus Lyle patted the dirt on his hands and looked at the employee who came to the newspaper and asked who the visitor is. As a bionic person, Markus Lyle has integrated emotional simulation and IQ. The high-precision emotional logic coding program makes He can accurately simulate the real human emotions.

This technology can be said to be the most valuable technology among all the technology companies under Luo Sheng. So far, it has been listed as the highest secret by him, and only he knows it.

The employee who came to the newspaper replied excitedly: "It's Larry Page, one of the founders of Google."

Larry Page?Google?

All the employees present showed surprised expressions and became even more excited. Larry Page is a member of the top technology tycoon club in the Silicon Valley technology circle. No one in the technology circle knows this person. of?

Marcus Lyle was not too excited, calmly went to the bathroom to wash his hands, and then went to the reception.

"Mr. Page, it's nice to meet you. It's our honor to be here at Binary." After the meeting, Marcus Lyle reached out with a polite smile and tone.

A little white-haired Larry Page was wearing a plaid shirt. He also happily stretched out his hand to hold it and smiled: "Are you Marcus Lyle, the founder of Lyle Binary?"

Marcus Lyle nodded, "Exactly."

Peppa smiled and said, "Don't you ask me to go in and have a look?"

Marcus: "Oh, sorry, of course it can be fine, please here."

After speaking, he personally took Larry Page and several assistants who came with him into the company’s office. Lyle Binary’s office was a large garage, crowded with about twenty young people. Work here.

Larry Page looked around in silence. Some of the employees and engineers present were also quite excited. Some even took out Azure-5 to record. There is a 50% probability that his mobile phone is a parallel product, or it is from the black market. Buy on, because so far, Azure-5 reselling from the Mexican market to North America has exceeded the market share of more than half of the formal channels, and this proportion is still increasing.

In other words, Azure-5 smartphones in the North American market have arrived, and one in two comes from the Mexican market.

Larry Page doesn’t mind if they take pictures of themselves. He has the easy-going and indifferent aura of a big guy, but he was actually forced by Bluestar Technology and Luo Sheng. Various Madefaqs also blurted out. The French squid was also He bought out of stock, but of course he wanted to maintain his bossy demeanor on this occasion.

"Seeing everything here reminds me of the picture when I founded Google in the garage 19 years ago. How similar." Larry Page suddenly said with emotion, as if it brought back memories of his past. .

"This may be the highest evaluation of Binary I have heard so far. Mr. Page, Alphabet's current market value is as high as 600 billion U.S. dollars. Google is a great technology company. How can Binary dare to be compared with Google... "Marcus Lyle responded with a humble tone.

"Haha, 19 years ago, no one would believe that Google can achieve what it is today in 19 years. I am very optimistic about the future of binary." Larry Page laughed and said, "I noticed that you shared it on the BV video network. Video of drones, wow, great, can you tell me about the drone project you are developing?"

Gradually brought to the subject in the commercial exchange, Marcus Lyle smiled and nodded happily, saying that it was okay. Soon even brought Larry Page to the workbench, turned on several computers and pointed at the data on the display panel. Then said:

"The military application of the technology UAV swarm technology currently developed by Binary aims to realize the development of many technologies such as practical combat management on the battlefield and autonomous swarm formation control."

Larry Page nodded. He is also a technical man, and even after asking the key point: "The larger the swarm and the more complex the combat environment, the higher the requirements for technology. News from China has been exposed. You should know about the drone swarm technology, and it is very likely to be the handwriting of the Blue Coast and Bluestar Technology. They have realized the autonomous formation control of at least 5000 drone swarms. If the Lyle binary competition The opponent is Luo Sheng, where is your technical advantage?"

Marcus Lyle said without hesitation: "Our development of drone technology, these key technologies can be summarized into three aspects."

Page: "Which three aspects?"

Marcus: "The first is the development of synergy technology between bee colonies and equipment systems. This technology refers to the management and control of drone colonies through airborne early warning aircraft or ground signal stations to establish a unified combat scenario, formation control and adjustment, And as needed to coordinate formation, etc. to be transmitted to the swarm network in a short time."

"The second is the development of collaborative technology within the colony. This technology is to realize the interconnection and autonomous formation control within the colony through the data link, as well as the cooperative situational awareness and sharing of the colony and the planning and decision-making of coordinated task distribution. It also needs to be able to avoid The core of a series of comprehensive information data processing capabilities such as strong electromagnetic interference capability, low interception capability, and identification capability is to create autonomous task allocation algorithms and autonomous decision-making response mechanisms."

Hearing Larry Page nodding silently here, he realized that he had come to visit in person. This start-up technology company called "Lyle Binary" has huge future prospects, and may be able to compete with Luo Sheng in the military. Take a shot, maybe you can take a shot with DJI in the field of commercial drones.

If Luo Sheng knew Peppa's inner thoughts at this moment, he would probably smile happily and use the opponent's resources to incubate his own company. Is there anything more exciting than this?

Marcus Lehr continued: “The third is the swarm drone platform and combat system technology. This is the core of swarm drones and the indispensable hardware equipment for the formation of drone swarms. Low-cost, high-efficiency, and multi-functional loads. The concept of swarm drones requires low-cost drone equipment, which can be a one-time or limited-life drone, and can be used on the premise of meeting functional requirements. Reduce equipment costs in terms of materials, manufacturing processes, and engines, so as to focus more on quantitative advantages under the premise of taking into account both'quantity' and'quality'."

Finally, Larry Page nodded very satisfied and smiled: "Nice, OK, Mr. Marcus, I want to invest in your company. May I ask which capital institution participated in your company's angel round financing?"

Marcus: "Anaheim Capital."

Larry Page couldn't help but curl his eyebrows. He thought it was Sequoia Capital, and he seemed quite unfamiliar with the name.

The big behind-the-scenes BOSS of Anaheim Capital is Luo Sheng. It was originally born to invest in Toutiao today, which is now the byte beating. Zhang Yiming, President Zhang, did not want to be under the fence, and repeatedly rejected Bluestar Technology's investment intention.

He thought he could get rid of Bluestar Technology and develop independently, but he didn’t know that he had actually been working for Luo Sheng, and that he had the terrible veto power. He has not used it so far, and Mr. Zhang also trusts An Naheim, because he did not interfere with the operation of the company for so many years, that veto power has never been activated once.

Larry Page nodded and did not obscure, and said bluntly: "Mr. Marcus, I think your company’s recent angel round financing has bottomed out. I am afraid that the A round of financing will be carried out. I want to exclusively contract expensive. For this round of financing, please make a direct price for how much money you want and how much equity you want to sell."

Page came here in person today. After a brief understanding, he no longer has any hesitation about investing in the company. The Series A financing of Lyle Binary Company is an inevitable posture.
