Rebirth

Chapter 4 Silicon Valley

(New book and new book, ask for all kinds of support)

Sitting in the car and looking at the scene outside the car window, Li Feng couldn't help thinking of where he would be next.

San Francisco is in an earthquake-prone zone. Therefore, many residential buildings in San Francisco are mostly wooden structures.

The San Francisco earthquake that year almost destroyed the entire city. Today, San Francisco was rebuilt from the ruins of San Francisco, just like Tangshan in China.

Before taking a good stroll around San Francisco, Zach drove out of downtown San Francisco and headed towards Silicon Valley. He also passed the Golden Gate Bridge on the way. It was a hurried glance at this world-famous bridge attraction.

Li Feng knew that the Golden Gate Bridge was an important prop for so many movies in later generations.

Either it was destroyed by an earthquake, it was demolished by Transformers, or the target of aliens, or the venue where the Hulk was fighting. In short, in the movie, the Golden Gate Bridge is definitely troubled.

San Francisco to Silicon Valley is only a few dozen kilometers away. As Silicon Valley is famous all over the world, San Francisco to Silicon Valley is a very famous tourist route.

Don’t you see the future generations of Chinese people traveling to the United States, Silicon Valley is almost a must-do project, come to see Apple, Google, Facebook and so on like a pilgrimage.

......

Speaking of Silicon Valley, I have to mention an amazing person, the brilliant Stanford University professor-Fred Terman.

The original Silicon Valley area was a well-known school district. After college students graduated, the students went to developed areas to develop, but the professor discovered this phenomenon. It was he who chose a place for student entrepreneurship on the Stanford campus and established Established a venture capital fund to encourage students to develop locally.

Under his guidance, two of his students spent $500 in a garage to establish a great company-HP, which is also the origin of the "garage culture" in Silicon Valley.

For example, Apple built it in the garage, Google built it in the garage, and there are many examples.

It can be said that HP witnessed the rise of Silicon Valley. The later HP garage was positioned as the birthplace of Silicon Valley by California and became one of the most famous attractions in Silicon Valley.

......

In the 1950s, Professor Fred had a bigger idea, relying on Stanford University to establish a campus technology park, which laid a foundation for the development of Silicon Valley.

Then a series of great companies came into being here, such as Fairchild, AMD, Intel, Apple, Cisco, Oracle and so on.

Later, with the rise of various high technologies such as biology, ocean, space, energy and raw materials, it became synonymous with high technology.

When it comes to high-tech industries, it must be Silicon Valley, and when it comes to Silicon Valley, it must give people a high-tech corporate image.

Nowadays, Silicon Valley must refer to the Silicon Valley in the San Francisco Bay Area, and the high-tech industries in the rest of the world have been named "Silicon Valley XX".

In China, there are also two places called "China Silicon Valley": Shenzhen City in China and Zhongguancun in Beijing. It is said that the urban development model of Shenzhen City is the San Francisco Bay Area-Silicon Valley.

......

In less than an hour, Zach carried Li Feng to San Jose, the capital of Santa Clara County. From here on, he has completely stepped into Silicon Valley.

The purpose of this time was very clear. They contacted Yang Zhiyuan again and knew that they were both present. Therefore, the two of them did not stay and went directly to the Stanford campus where Yahoo is currently located.

Yes, both of them are still studying at Stanford at this time.

After a 10-minute drive, the two finally reached the gate of the destination Stanford University. It was during the winter vacation and the school was relatively small.

Li Feng and the two drove directly into the campus, and went directly according to what they said about the motor room. Li Feng was full of expectations for this.

......

From afar, Li Feng saw that familiar face. After all, as a Chinese, Yang Zhiyuan is too famous. He is not very tall. He has a round face with large glasses and a white man standing beside him. Youth, the two stood neatly in front of the motor room building.

Apparently both of them were slightly dressed up, wearing suits and ties.After all, I heard that angel investors are here.

Before the car came to a complete stop, Li Feng jumped out of the car and strode towards the two of them. Yang Zhiyuan obviously didn't care about Li Feng's approach.

After all, he was still a minor at first glance. Although he was about 1.75 meters tall, he was only 15 years old after all, and his immature face couldn't deceive anyone.

......

"Hello, are these two Jerry and David?" Li Feng smiled and walked to the two of them, then asked after reaching out his hand.

"Oh, yes, are you?" Yang Zhiyuan quickly shook Li Feng's hand, then asked with a puzzled expression.

"Good day, two, I am coming to meet your investors today. My name is St. John Lee."

"Oh, mygod, Yang, give me a try and see if I am dreaming."

"Well, David, hello, Mr. Li, are you of Chinese descent?" Yang Zhiyuan heard Li Feng's self-introduction, so he asked, after all, the last LI is the surname commonly used by Chinese descent.

"Oh, I don't know. I'm an orphan, but I like Huaxia. Obviously I have oriental ancestry. Therefore, I took the name myself and brought a Chinese surname." Li Feng shrugged and said with a smile .

While talking, Zach parked the car and walked over.

......

"This is my personal lawyer, Zach John." Both parties greeted immediately.

"Mr. Lawyer, is this Mr. Li really going to invest?" David asked Zach at this time.Obviously, Li Feng is a little bit puzzled about being an angel investor at such a young age.

"I can prove this. It was when I was online with him. He saw the two network guides and raised the idea of ​​investing. You have also seen it. I was hired by him and brought him to the two In front of him."

"Oh, mygod, Li, first of all thank you for loving our web guide and for your affirmation of us, and thank you for your investment."

"David, Mr. Lee hasn't invested yet."

Li Feng from later generations is very clear that although the two founders of Yahoo are both technical talents, David is more focused on technology, while Yang Zhiyuan is a versatile talent.

"Of course, David, if I don't want to invest, I won't come to you all the way from Los Angeles to Silicon Valley."

"Then let's go upstairs first, and go to the room to talk specifically." Yang Zhiyuan said in a pleased gesture.

Then a group of four people walked into the building. Yes, at this time the office of both of them was still in a small room in their own electrical room.

The server is also the school's server. It can be seen that the two of them are really not mixing well at this time, after all, they are still students.

......

I entered the small room and took a look. It was only 2 to 30 square meters. There were some pizza cartons in the trash bag. Obviously the two of them cleaned up a bit, but still felt that the whole room was terrible.

Two computers and a server were buzzing all the time, and four people walked inside and they were almost full.

"Sorry, Mr. Li, the two of us are still students. For the time being, the servers are also using the school. Therefore, we can only do this." Seeing Li Feng frowned, Yang Zhiyuan explained a little bit.

"It doesn't matter, after all, it's like this at the beginning of a business. This is Silicon Valley, the place where miracles are born. That's how those garage legends are born."

"Yes, that's it. This is Silicon Valley." David responded very excitedly to Li Feng.

......

Of course, after all, Li Feng came here to search for gold. Before he became a shareholder of Yahoo, he had to be prepared to talk to the two of them. After all, every percentage point would mean hundreds of millions of dollars in business in the future.

Therefore, Li Feng decided to let the two of them take a look at their greatest strengths and strengths as reborn people.
