Back to 1995

Chapter 1229

It’s hard to say in the future, but now Holmes thinks what he is doing is a “just” cause, and believes that Theranos is helping the American people.

After all, a liar can lie to him for more than ten years without a doubt. If he wants to lie to others, he has to lie to himself. Ordinary people have already revealed their true colors.

Elizabeth Holmes is a woman who knows her own advantages and is very good at packaging and using them. She knows that her advantages lie in her family and resources. Using her family advantages, she can get in touch with those big people, so she packs herself and makes connections.

Holmes used the resources of family connections to strengthen the Murdoch and Walton families, let the boss of the federal education department and others join the board of directors of Theranos Corporation, and even became best friends with the daughter of the former commander-in-chief. She stepped into the line of the previous commander, and took advantage of the opportunity to get involved with the Donkey Party, and the relationship with the Donkey Party also allowed the Federal Drug Administration to pass the approval of Theranos products. One step, it can be said that Holmes has not wasted!

Since her debut, Holmes has walked extremely smoothly and steadily every step of the way. Coupled with her family's connections and resources, and endorsements from so many big figures, her fame is naturally logical, and she has directly become a representative of the new generation of "geniuses" in Silicon Valley.

She is about the same age as Song Yang when she debuted. Elizabeth Holmes, who is just 19 years old this year, is not satisfied with all of this. After all, her genius name is comparable to that of Silicon Valley "older" geniuses Mark Anderson, Yang Zhiyuan, Song Yang Compared with other people, they are still far behind. When those people debuted back then, they were all praised by the whole of America. Silicon Valley venture capital, Wall Street institutions, and overseas consortiums all gave Song Yang a lot of money.

But when it was Holmes' turn, even though so many people were advocating for her, and the media also boasted that she was full of flowers, Silicon Valley venture capital, Wall Street institutions, etc., still watched with cold eyes.

Of course Holmes can attract investment. As long as she asks, including the Murdoch and Walton family, etc., they will generously donate to her. It is not difficult to invest tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars. What's the point if there is no Wall Street investment bank campaign!
Without the support of Wall Street, only relying on Holmes' boasting, how many leeks can be harvested, no Wall Street institutions to value Theranos, and only relying on those "acquaintances" resources, Theranos wants to go public. It's the year of the monkey and the month of the horse.

But Holmes, who wanted to be "recognized" by Wall Street institutions and was used to relying on resources, quickly focused on one person, that is, Song Yang, who is now the chief helm of Silicon Valley. Compared with Bill Gates, Yang Zhiyuan And others, although they are also big figures in the technology industry, their gold content is still not as good as that of someone.

In addition, as long as someone invests in a company, the valuation will skyrocket immediately, so Holmes wants to attract Song Yang's investment. As soon as Song Yang invests in her Theranos Company, Holmes will immediately Song Yang is optimistic about her Theranos company. By then, Wall Street institutions will not swarm in, and they can use Song Yang's name to let companies such as the American chain pharmacy giant Walgreens purchase western medicines. A product of Lanos Corporation!
But what Holmes didn't expect was that when he got to Song Yang's side, nothing came to him. Holmes didn't know if Song Yang didn't see the information on Theranos, or...he didn't want to invest. The latter made Holmes a little worried.

Without Song Yang's investment and endorsement, Holmes felt that if Theranos wanted to get a sky-high valuation and go public, it would have to be troublesome.

But soon, Holmes cheered up and prepared to find an opportunity to meet Song Yang in person and persuade Song Yang to invest in her Theranos company. Holmes will not let go unless it is absolutely necessary!

"President Holmes, I'm very glad that you accepted the exclusive interview with CBS TV station!"

Carreiro, a reporter from CBS Television, said to Elizabeth Holmes, "I read some reports. When you were nine years old, your grandfather asked you some questions. What do you want to be when you grow up? Your answers yes……"

"Billionaire!"

"And if I don't want to be a big commander, I will be worth 100 billion dollars!"

Holmes said with a smile, making the originally serious atmosphere a bit more relaxed, and the expression on Holmes' face at the moment was "sorry" for talking big when he was a child, but also full of embarrassment. With a somewhat serious expression, people "believe" that she seems to be able to fulfill her original promise.

Carreiro in front of me, including the audience who will read this interview in the future, will be deeply impressed by her.

"President Holmes, do you think the original promise will be fulfilled?!" Carreiro's reporter asked.

Holmes smiled slightly, but his face showed an extremely confident expression, "What do you think?!"

Carreiro also smiled. At this time, no one doubted that Holmes would not become a billionaire, even now.

Now Carreiro is still interviewing Holmes, but in the finished film, the camera turned around and appeared on Holmes’ day. She only sleeps for four hours a day, drinks a lot of coffee and chews chocolate beans to maintain her strength , from four o'clock in the morning, get up and start praying, showing that Holmes is a rare devout Puritan among the younger generation.

Then there is exercise, meditation, and breakfast. At 45:[-] in the morning, when countless people in San Jose and Silicon Valley are still asleep, Holmes has arrived at the company first.

In the background music, it also shows the rules that Holmes has set for herself, never being late for one minute, not showing excitement or depression, everything is for work, and at the same time...she is also a vegetarian, um, with Jobs was exactly the same.

In addition, in the company, Holmes also behaved like Jobs, maverick, but extremely talented. The company encountered difficulties in R&D. No matter how many talented designers and medical experts could not do anything about it, Holmes had a genius idea. That's it. She seems to have the ability to distort reality. After seeing the interview, the audience probably couldn't help but think that her name should not be Holmes, but Elizabeth Jobs...

Appearing in the interview film is a story of a little girl who was afraid of needles and being drawn blood since she was a child, determined to change the world, making a movie is enough, and the labels on Holmes also gathered hard work, elite, dropout, Words such as ideals, passion, and universal care are full of buffs. Who can reject such a nearly perfect woman and this story that changes the world? !

Silicon Valley has become a story of too many men, and now an elite Anglo-Saxon girl has appeared in Silicon Valley, how can she not be noticed!
"There are still a few last questions," Carreiro asked Holmes, "Theranos has registered many technical patents and has black technology, but why is there no medical authority to report such a major technological breakthrough?" ?!"

Regarding this question, Holmes is not afraid of danger and does not seem to be in any panic. "It takes a certain amount of time for people to accept new things. The first generation product of Theranos "Edison One" is under development. Hurry up, everyone can see it, if American pharmacies and home users are willing to purchase it!"

Hearing this, Carreiro couldn't help but exclaimed, and then asked Holmes, "President Holmes, who is the practitioner in Silicon Valley that you like or admire the most? If you have the opportunity to have a face-to-face meeting with this person , who would you choose?!"

Carreiro was ready for Holmes to say Jobs' name, after all, she was called the female version of Jobs, and her behavior and style were very similar to Jobs, but Holmes' name surprised him.

"Bruno Song!"

"I look forward to meeting Bruno Song. There are rumors in Silicon Valley that he has magical powers. I look forward to him coming to Theranos and giving advice to Theranos!"

Facing the camera, Holmes directly uttered a name without concealment. This was almost an invitation letter to Song Yang in front of many American media, and it was up to Song Yang to accept it.

On Holmes' side, while talking to the media, Song Yang also came to the Bell Labs headquarters in Murray Hill.

When Song Yang came here before, Stanzen, the president who managed Bell Labs, never had a good look at Song Yang, but this time it was different. As soon as Song Yang arrived at the door, Stanzen rushed to Bell Labs today in front of many media , led a group of experts in the technology industry, greeted Song Yang at the door, and gave Song Yang, a big money maker, enough face in front of the media.

Today, Stanzen is full of smiles, and he led Song Yang into Bell Labs, pointing to many refurbished laboratories and some newly built buildings, and said to Song Yang, "Now Bell Labs There are more than [-] personnel, and more than [-] first-class scientific research institutions and university laboratories cooperate with Bell Labs. Every year, more than [-] top scientific researchers from all over the world come here to communicate and develop together new project!
Last year, Bell Labs developed more than [-] new technologies and patents, and received more than [-] nominations for federal and international awards..."

Stanzen introduced to Song Yang with a little pride in his words. When he took over Bell Labs, Bell Labs was already falling apart. Even the headquarters was demolished by real estate developers asking if they could sell it. Villa, but Stanzahn managed to sustain the situation, did not let Bell Labs fall during his tenure, and now he is starting to return to the top!
The current Bell Labs dare not say that it has returned to the absolute peak, but at least it has the level of six or seven when it was in full swing. After all, companies such as Alcatel Mobile, America Telecom, and ICQ invest billions in Bell Labs every year. Meidao's research and development funds cannot be wasted.

Song Yang looked at Stanzen, who seemed quite complacent at the moment, but couldn't help, and sighed slightly. Song Yang could vaguely sense what Stanzen was going to do.

Walking into Bell Labs, Song Yangneng felt that in this huge group of laboratories, the R&D personnel who were busy in the laboratory had a feeling of vitality. Obviously, they were very satisfied with the research and development they were engaged in. Confidence, it seems that I really believe that I will really make out what I have developed, rather than the kind of errands. This is completely different from the research and development atmosphere when Song Yang came here for the first time!

When passing by a conference room, Song Yang saw many people coming in and out. Looking around, he could see a large group of media surrounding the two of them doing interviews.

Seeing Song Yang's expression, Stanzen said with a smile, "They are the two professors Gaim and Novoselov!"

Today is the unveiling day of the Nobel Prize. Gem and Novoselov are the most popular candidates for the Nobel Prize in Physics. Such a large group of media gathered here, all wanting to be the first to respond Interview with the new Nobel Laureate in Physics.

A Nobel Prize is not enough to push a top laboratory to a new peak, but it can play an icing on the cake. For Stanzen, if he can win another Nobel Prize in Physics after more than ten years Award, then for his tenure as the president of the Nobel Laboratory, there is no regret!

Hearing that it was Gaim and Novoselov, Song Yang couldn't help but smile on his face. The two of them have been the most popular fried chickens in the global technology industry in the past two years, not one of them!

Because of the graphene material they discovered, and the graphene boom that has been set off in the global technology industry, how many technology companies have invested in it, including Motorola, IBM, Intel, Cisco, AMD, Nike and other companies in America alone. A lot of dollars have been spent on research and development of graphene technology and products. The global science and technology industry has invested more than [-] billion dollars in research and development of graphene. Everyone wants to be the first to eat graphene.

In the past, it was hard to say when graphene products would be developed, but the value of the graphite mine that Song Yang asked Alcatel to buy for his mobile phone has now increased dozens of times. The supply of graphite mines mined every day is in short supply, and the price of graphite mines is also constantly soar!

Graphite mines earn a lot of dollars, but Song Yang doesn’t value it that much. The key is that a group of rival companies in the technology industry are working hard to develop graphene, but Song Yang is very satisfied. When it comes to the Nobel Prize in Physics, the frenzy of graphene will be even more violent. Those giant companies are estimated to increase their research and development on graphene. The more money they spend on graphene, the more Al For companies such as Carter Mobile and PA Semiconductor, the more beneficial it is!
The more time graphene delays for companies such as Alcatel mobile phones, when Intel and a group of companies look up from graphene, they will find that the gap between them and Alcatel mobile phones and PA semiconductors seems to be so big. The industry is often one step ahead, and the latecomers want to catch up with the former, and the cost and cost are too high.

Stanzen glanced at Song Yang suspiciously. He didn't know why, but he always felt that when Song Yang looked at Gaim and the two, the expression on his face was very subtle, which always made him feel that something was wrong.

"They will definitely win the Nobel Prize in Physics!"

Song Yang said to Stanzen with a smile, in order for them to win the award and build momentum for graphene, Song Yang has spent a lot of effort on his side. He asked the Federal Foreign Affairs Committee to step in and secretly poke at the Nobel Prize Foundation The Swedish municipality where it is located "communicates". Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes. After all, there is no so-called absolute fairness in the world. It is the general trend for graphene to win the Nobel Prize in Physics. So many companies are developing graphene Counting on graphene, no one can stop it from winning the prize!
For example, the prize money of the Nobel Prize can last for so many years. It is definitely not sitting on the mountain. Nearly half of the income comes from investment, which is invested in the American stock market. Presumably the Nobel Prize Foundation does not want to invest in the American stock market. Freeze or even hit the water directly...

Directly donating money to the Nobel Foundation is too ugly, and the other party dare not accept it, but it is no problem to donate to the Nobel Prize Foundation through the Science and Technology Foundation of America, etc., so many dollars have been spent. With so many resources, the foundation in charge of the Nobel Prize has to give graphene a name no matter what!
　The elders in the family fainted yesterday. Fortunately, they woke up a few minutes later. They were sent to the hospital for a day and checked out. The doctor said it was high blood pressure. Please pay attention to medication. There are still some tests to come out tomorrow. I hope there is no major hinder.

Thank you for your support, thank you!
