America's Road to Fame

Chapter 67 Rejected

Chapter 67 Rejected
By the time he arrived at the hotel, Ivanta hadn't recovered from the shock.

From William Chen's words, she was able to know that his current assets, not counting Building No. 666, were more than 10 billion US dollars, which couldn't help but frightened her.

10 billion US dollars is not too much for their family.After all, whether it is the Trump family where Ivanta belongs, the Kushner family of Garrett, or the Hilton family of Paris, their family assets are in the billions of dollars, and the least is more than 30 billion U.S. dollars .

But you must know that these family assets are accumulated by several generations, and they are incomparable with William Chen who has assets of 10 billion US dollars in a short period of time.Therefore, the money is a dazzling and huge amount to them.

And unlike those young rich in the technology field, they can own more than one billion dollars of wealth by virtue of company valuation or listing.Those are just valuations, market caps.And William Chen, these are real cash!

Moreover, he is only 21 years old now. If his wealth is reported, he will definitely become the youngest billionaire.

When the two walked out of the hotel elevator, William Chen took Ivanta's hand and said, "Wait a minute, Ivanta, I want to talk to you."

"William." Ivanta hesitated, "I told you yesterday..."

"Uh, I really have something to talk to you about this time, about work." Knowing that Ivanta misunderstood what he meant, William Chen explained.

To be honest, Alicia last night was really the first formidable opponent that Chen William met.So when he spoke to Ivanta just now, he really had no other thoughts.

However, being misunderstood by Ivanta, he couldn't help secretly looking at Ivanta's bumpy figure, well, he was really ready to move, what should I do.

"Okay then." Ivanta said after hesitating for a while, "Just chat for a while, I have to get up early tomorrow to go back to New York."

After entering the house, Ivanta felt a little thirsty, so she walked to the refrigerator, opened the door, and prepared to take out a bottle of water to drink.Unexpectedly, a hand reached out and took away the mineral water in her hand.

Just when Ivanta was stunned, William Chen took the bottle of ice water away, then picked up the same bottle of mineral water from the table and handed it to her, saying:

"Drink this bottle, Ivanta, you can't drink it cold now."

Hearing Chen William's words, Ivanta said strangely: "Why can't you drink?"

"Didn't you say yesterday, that... isn't it convenient for you?"

Ivanta suddenly thought of what she said yesterday, and suddenly realized: "I only heard this kind of statement from Wendi before, but in the United States, we have always been like this."

It was only then that Chen Weilian thought of the saying that he could not drink cold water in the days when there was no inconvenience for women in Meilijian. He was still misled by his thinking habits in his previous life.

Because the girls in the United States didn't say that it was inconvenient to exercise and ask for leave even in those few days. Even if they felt uncomfortable, they were used to taking painkillers.Therefore, it is different from the girls in Huaguo in terms of habits.

As for which habit is healthier for the body, William Chen himself is not clear, so he gave up the idea of ​​persuading Ivanta.

"Well, William, didn't you say you have something to say?"

After a moment of silence, Ivanta looked at William Chen and asked.

"Yes, Ivanta." William Chen sat next to Ivanta and said to her, "I think of an entrepreneurial project. I wonder if you are interested."

"A startup project?"

Seeing Ivanta's puzzled expression, William Chen thought for a while and said, "Yes, a mobile app for chatting, similar to..."

Chen Weilian thought about the similar chat software in the United States, and continued:
"MSN is only used on mobile phones. Users can register directly with their mobile phone numbers. When they are available, they can automatically read their mobile phone address book and add contacts in the address book as friends."

"You can send text messages, voice messages and even make voice calls between friends. What do you think of such an app?"

Hearing William Chen's description, Ivanta imagined it for a while, then his eyes lit up, and said: "Very interesting idea, William, if there is such a software, it will be much more convenient for us to communicate in normal times. Are you planning to do this? A project of

"It's not me, it's you, Ivanta. How about it? Are you interested in such a project? You can try to start a technology company from scratch." William Chen took her hand, held it, and then spoke gently she said.

"Me? Are you kidding? William, I've never done this before, I can't even program." Ivanta said incredulously.

"It's actually very simple, Ivanta. It's not difficult at all. How would you know if you don't try it? Think about it, online social networking is a huge market. Needless to say, it can have the scale of Facebook, even if it can reach Its one-fifth or even one-fourth of the scale can also allow you to prove your own strength."

In financings just this year, Facebook's valuation has exceeded $100 billion, and it's still growing rapidly.

It can be seen that when William Chen said these words, Ivanta's face showed a look of excitement, but in the end she shook her head and said:
"To be honest, William, your proposal really moved me, but I'm really too busy now, and sometimes I only sleep for four or five hours, so I'm afraid I won't have so much energy to manage a start-up company. .”

William Chen also understood what Ivanta said.As far as he knows, Ivanta not only serves as the vice president of the family company, but also has some personal businesses.

For example, she has a brand named after herself. The products include ready-to-wear, jewelry, women's shoes, perfume, etc., and she has also cooperated with food giant ConAgra to launch her own microwave fast food products.

Since this is the case, Chen William will not force her anymore, he said to Ivanta: "You can think about it again, Ivanta, but no matter what, I hope that the work you are doing is what you like, I will support you too."

"I see, thank you William, but I still think your idea is really great, and it's worth trying."

At this moment, William Chen was still holding Ivanta's hand. Seeing the faint blushing on Ivanta's face, he couldn't help approaching her lips.

This time Ivanta didn't resist anymore, she saw William Chen approaching her slowly, and silently closed her eyes.

Ivanta's reaction greatly encouraged Chen William, he gently hugged Ivanta into his arms, and kissed her bright red lips.

The sweet taste was like jelly, when William Chen was addicted to her smell, he felt that Ivanta also began to cater to his kiss.

At this moment, it seems that there are only two people immersed in sweetness left in the world, and they can even feel each other's every breath.

When William Chen was not satisfied with this and wanted to make another move, his actions were firmly blocked by Ivanta.

"William." Ivanta opened his eyes and looked at Chen William: "I told you."

William Chen saw a trace of firmness in Ivanta's eyes, and he understood that this was the best he could do today.

So he continued to put his hands on Ivanta's back and held her in his arms again.This time Ivanta didn't stop him anymore, and the two continued to fall into the passionate kiss.

William Chen still fell asleep alone that night. After the kiss, Ivanta said goodbye to him and returned to her room.

The next morning, after sending Ivanta to the airport and watching her board the flight to New York, William Chen went back to the hotel and discussed with Nelson about the Siri company.

"According to our findings, Siri's intelligent voice technology originated from a scientific research - CALO, the largest artificial intelligence project in the history of the United States. This project is sponsored by the Department of Defense. Virtual assistants, giving them "personality and cognitive abilities", but mainly in the military field. This research was given to a non-profit research organization SRI (Stanford Research Institute) to conduct."

"Over five years, almost 500 people worked on the project. After the project ended, SRI researcher Adam Cheyer and other friends set up a company to develop Siri. Although CALO and Siri are very different , but it still gave a lot of inspiration to Siri later.”

"The prototype of Siri, they have already started research in the last century, after more than 10 years of improvement, in the first half of this year, the official commercial version of Siri was launched on the AppStore."

After Nelson introduced these, he reminded William Chen: "I got the news that you from Apple approached Siri a month ago, hoping to acquire them."

Hearing the news, William Chen's pupils froze and he asked, "How did it turn out? Did they agree?"
