The Youngest Son of Sunyang

[125] Venture Spirit 3

A vast campus unfolded as I leapt out of the library.

Shit, I'm getting insulted again.

What kind of a college is this big?

I think it will take more time to find computer science and office than it takes to find a paper.

It was later discovered that the Stanford campus, which has an area of 3,310 hectares, is roughly the size of a 3,388 hectare wave. It's the same as finding an office on a milestone in Songpa.

As there are many buildings named after the donor, sometimes dozens of buildings have the same name, and each time I ask my students, they tell me in a different direction.

I think we should urge them to make a Google Map at least a day before meeting them.

When I asked about their whereabouts in Computer Science and the office, the sky seemed to fall down.

“I was in the dormitory a while ago, and I moved to Silicon Valley. ”

Is it too late? Is he already invested and founded?

I really look forward to Google.

If you search like this, you'll know enough about the situation. I could feel how great Google was created by the two people.

“Can you give me the address? ”

The office staff quickly took out their business cards before looking suspiciously at them.

If you're an investor, you're always welcome to Stanford.

The employee wrote down the address on the note faster than I pulled out my business card.

I came out like a bullet with a note in my hand, riding a shuttle through the university.

I grabbed a cab and ran to Silicon Valley for 20 minutes.

When I arrived at the address, I sighed of relief. It was a quiet residential area.

These guys.

You haven't left the garage yet.

I carefully approached and peeked inside the garage.

Three or four desks, a computer, and a can of booze and a box of pizza.

I thought it would be a relief. Judging by the look of it, I'm sure there hasn't been much investment yet.

I squatted in front of a closed garage and waited for two people to show up. If it's a garage, it's natural to eat and sleep in it, but I don't know where I'm going...

As it begins to get dark, a pickup truck stands in front of the garage.

Two young men found me and quickly approached me.

“Who are you? What are you doing in front of someone else's office? ”

“Larry Page? Sergey Brin?”

When I looked at the two of them alternately and confirmed their names, their expressions became even worse.

If I was a middle-aged man in a suit, I would have frowned immediately. He had a hunch he was an investor to save his own ass.

“Who are you? What's going on?”

“Don't you see? You both have bad eyes. ”

“What?”

“The wings on my back. Also known as the wings of angels. ”

If you don't get it, it's just a unimedullary engineering. But they both knew better.

“Stop, really? ”

I dropped the beer pack I was holding. I have had such a desperate opportunity, but I will not believe it. You never would have thought a young Asian would be an Angel investor.

“How long are you going to be surprised? Let's go inside. I've been wandering around all day and I'm thirsty. Will you serve me one of those beers? ”

* * *

“This is someone I know's garage. You work for Intel.”

When I slashed my throat with a sip of beer, the two of them opened their mouths as they glanced at me.

“But who are you? Are you really an investor? ”

I need to trust myself completely to get the story out. without a foresight of being young and Asian.

I put a can of beer in my mouth and the bear thought of a very easy way.

It's the best way to make me look with respect and admiration.

“Wait, that's the speaker on the phone, right? ”

Pointing to the phone on the desk, the two nodded their heads.

“Then let's just use one phone call. ”

I took my phone out and looked at my contacts and found the name I wanted.

I turned on the speakers and dialed the number immediately. A long tone rang and I heard a voice waiting for me.

― Michael.

“Michael, how are you? It's Howard. Howard Jean. ”

Howard. How long has it been? Are you American?

A voice that cannot hide its greetings flows through the speakers.

“Yes, I'm in California. I'll see you when I'm done here. Before that, I have a favor to ask you... ”

- Tell me anything.

“There are two people listening to this call. who I'd like to invest in. But I keep seeing myself with suspicious eyes. ”

- Uh-huh. Oops, oops. If Howard found out, I'd like to invest right now.

He looked up at the two people who were listening to the phone and said,

“Say hello. I'm Mr. Michael Dell. ”

“Dell...? Dell! That's the Dell? ”

I nodded my head and spoke to the speakers.

“Michael, make yourself at home. I'll stay out of it for a while. ”

You leave two strangely expressionless people behind and leave the garage.

It was already dark outside.

I took out my phone and told Rachel and my dad I couldn't go back today.

Damn it.

I'm going to sleep in a motel in Silicon Valley tonight with that incredible Ritz-Carlton hotel suite. I feel like I'm going to die for money.

About thirty minutes later, the two of them called me.

I thought I had all the information I wanted. I said to the phone that hasn't been disconnected.

“Michael, I'm going to be in the United States for a while, so I'll get back to you. ”

- Okay, call me anytime. 'Cause if I don't have time, I'm gonna fly to California.

When I finished the call, the two faces and eyes were exactly what I wanted.

Now I will accept whatever I say as the truth.

“Did you really invest nine million dollars in a Dell computer when you were 10 years old? ”

“Yes.”

“Surrender all rights as shareholders and leave them entirely to the founders? Nine million dollars?”

“You've heard of it. You think Michael's lying? ”

“Oh, no... I can't believe it.”

“Trust me, it's true. ”

“You…. No, you said Howard. Howard Jean.”

“Yes."

“Michael said that you found us was a clear sign that our business was successful. He said he wanted to invest. ”

Their cheeks are red, not because of beer, but because of excitement. It is fortunate and blessed to be able to do business without worrying about money. If billionaire Michael Dell invests, doesn't that mean he doesn't have to worry about money in the future?

“Forget about Michael Dell. He's already a successful billionaire. He'll force you to tell him how to succeed. Dell Computers are fundamentally different from Google. Dell is online, but it's essentially a distribution business. ”

“But…. ”

“You must be mistaken, don't you think you have enough money? When I was ten, I invested nine million dollars. You think my assets are less than Michael Dell's? ”

The two whistled loudly and waved their heads.

“Howard. You mind if I call you Howard? ”

“Of course.”

“Let me ask you something first. Why us?”

“What?"

“Silicon Valley is full of ventures waiting for money like showers to soak dry land. Why us?”

Suddenly, the white knight who appeared is naturally in fairy tales, no doubt, curiosity. But ten years from now, I won't be able to answer that I know your future. I swiped the printed paper.

“It was very reasonable. ”

Two people at a glance recognized that this was their paper, but I have not yet begun to doubt it.

“And I hate Yahoo. The search results look like crap. ”

“Do you think we're going to cross Yahoo? ”

“Do you need to ask me? Isn't that the goal? A search engine that shows you the best results you want. Aren't you?”

I saw two people nodding their heads and clapped their hands once.

“Come on. Let's be specific. What's the most desperate thing right now? Decent office, staff to work with? ”

“Server!”

As soon as the question ended, the two of them shouted Lee Dong-sung.

“We've already opened our search engines. Stanford and the Silicon Valley people are using it. Indexes have been piling up quite a bit. That's the server you're using right now. ”

They pointed to a couple of PCs in the corner of the garage.

“We don't have enough lines and we don't have enough performance. ”

“I think you've already paid for building a satisfactory server. ”

“Of course.”

I sat back in the chair, drying out the two people who were beginning to search on the messy desk.

“Let's do it all at once. Deploy the servers, move them to a sensible office. And get the staff you need. Oh, and change cars. Maybe a Lexus, huh? You can't recover the money you invested in an accident while driving around in a rattling pickup truck. ”

When I saw the two people who opened their mouths, I felt better. That lucky face. I'm their Angel.

I wanted to make sure I lived a rich life and was only dedicated to development. They are different from some trashy venture companies in Korea. What kind of scammers spend their money invested without a single sale?

But they have different goals.

They dream of the second Bill Gates and Miss Jerry. They are not drooling on billions of dollars, but dreaming of trillions of dollars' worth of equity and aiming for a new world to be created in this garage.

“Now, how much would that cost? ”

Aren't they genius engineers? I calculated it with my head spinning, then carefully pulled out the numbers.

“One hundred and fifty thousand. Two hundred thousand should be enough. ”

I blink and look at my eyes for as long as I can.

Two hundred thousand dollars is the cost of staying in our family in Ritz-Carlton for only five days.

I feel like I'm enjoying a lot of luxury. I think I'm going to die because I want to lose money again.

“Okay, I'm going to invest a million dollars, and that's what I'm going to do. The next investment will be in 10 million units. Be strong. ”

Two young men came at me screaming madly.

He picked me up, turned the garage around, and put me down.

After enjoying the excitement of this tremendous fortune, the two of them calmed down while drinking canned beer. I already know a way that many of you have walked towards success.

I know that the money I give is not free, and I know that they will share the wealth in the future.

“Hey, Howard. Now I want specifics. Oh, of course, Michael Dell has already told me that you're a significant investor. But you need a contract. ”

What kind of terms should I bid on?

It's a meaningless story.

It is terrible to imagine myself rushing to eat more, taking the value of hundreds of trillions of companies one by one. Knowing the results of a good future should also put aside the idea of controlling two people who will change the world.

Depending on my personal desires and personal goals, I am very lacking compared to them.

They change the world, and all I have to do is change the future of the circus group.

The only weapon I have may be lost if I am obsessed with greater desire.

Let's move and be greedy enough that the future I know won't change.

Just like this... Not anymore.

I held myself together in front of two young men who still didn't know their worth.

“Don't be evil. ”

I muttered my decision. I don't know if you two know my heart.
