Reborn Capital Empire

Chapter 166 Spring Festival 2001

…

"Duo duo…!"

With Guo Shouyun's skillful use, the thick kitchen knife collided with the chopping board below, and made a series of even sounds.

With this sound, the pork minced by the meat grinder became thinner.

"Wendy, bring my sliced ​​leeks here!"

Hearing that, Wendy, who was sitting on the pony next to her curiously watching Guo Shouyun's busy work, hurriedly brought over the leeks in the pot next to her.

After Guo Shouyun took it, he put the minced pork in. After stirring with chopsticks, sprinkle salt, monosodium glutamate, star anise powder, chopped green onion and ginger, and then add a little soybean oil into it. After feeling that it was almost the same, Guo Shouyun stirred for three minutes, and after stirring the meat stuffing well, he nodded with satisfaction.

"All right!"

"Is this the dumpling filling?" Wendy asked curiously.

"Um!"

"It looks amazing!"

"Huaxia has more magical things than this!" Guo Shouyun took the dumpling wrappers he bought from Chinatown and started making dumplings.

Today is the 30th Lunar New Year, and it is also the first New Year he has had since his rebirth. Although there are no relatives around him, he doesn't want to be careless. So, in the afternoon, I went to Chinatown in San Francisco to buy New Year's goods.

In his last life, he was from Qilu, and there are two most important things in Chinese New Year: eating dumplings and watching the Spring Festival Gala.

In line with the principle of doing it yourself, he wrapped his favorite dumplings with leek and pork.

Seeing Guo Shouyun skillfully wrapping dumplings with large white skins, Wendy said, "It looks interesting, can I try it?"

"You?" Glancing at her, Guo Shouyun, who wanted to refuse, looked at Wendy's sparkling eyes, and swallowed again, "Go to those chopsticks!"

Wendy nodded vigorously, happily took out chopsticks from the kitchen next to her, and wrapped her first dumplings in Guo Shouyun's style. But like all beginners, what comes out of the package is horrible.

"Why is mine so ugly?"

There is no harm without comparison. Wendy looked at the vegetable dumplings in her hand and Guo Shouyun's exquisite dumplings. She was very dissatisfied.

"It's your first time making dumplings, so it's strange that you can make them well!" Guo Shouyun laughed.

"I don't believe it, I'm going to try again!"

Just when Wendy was about to harm Guo Shouyun's dumpling stuffing again, a bodyguard walked in.

"Boss, Mr. Liu is here!"

"Let him in!"

"Yes!"

After the bodyguard went out, it didn't take long for Liu Zhixing to walk in with his daughter. The most important thing in the Chinese New Year is to be lively, so Guo Shouyun also invited him and his friends to come over. However, Liu Zhixing arrived first.

"Uncle Guo, Aunt Wendy!"

The crisp voice immediately diverted Wendy's attention from the dumplings.

"Nan, uncle can't leave now, I'll give you a big red envelope later!" Guo Shouyun said with a smile.

At this time, Liu Zhi walked over. Seeing his appearance, Guo Shouyun asked with a smile, "Is it possible?"

"I learned it when I was in my hometown!" Liu Zhixing nodded.

"That's right, you go to the kitchen to wash your hands and help me wrap a piece of dumplings, otherwise I will be exhausted after wrapping the dumplings for a dozen people."

Liu Zhixing smiled and nodded. With him joining, the speed was indeed much faster. It wasn't long before Katherine Lincoln arrived. This is another force. Because of Guo Shouyun's adoptive father's relationship, she likes to eat dumplings since she was a child, and she also likes to celebrate the Spring Festival. After many years, she naturally learned to wrap.

Following Katherine were Matta Lincoln and his fiancée Julia. Not long afterward, Martin Alexander and his girlfriend Suri, along with Larry Page, Sergey Brin and David Sacks, arrived.

In addition to the CEO of Ruby Technology, Keith Rabos, who was on a business trip in China, partners from Google, LinkedIn, and PayPal all came. Of course, this is Guo Shouyun's company in San Francisco. Like Matrix, Phoenix, and Hanhua, there is no way.

Westerners are naturally fond of parties, so Larry Page, Sergey Brin, and David Sachs, although it was the first time they met the Lincoln brothers and sisters, did not seem unfamiliar to each other. After chatting for a while, the atmosphere became warm.

After the hot dumplings are out of the pot, the traditional Chinese cuisine makes the atmosphere in the room even more lively.

But compared to dumplings, what really impressed Guo Shouyun was the Spring Festival Gala.

In the Spring Festival Gala in 2001, Song Zuying was still the protagonist; Cai Ming was still very young; Feng Gong did not have the opening remarks full of "I miss you"; ...well, even in 2001, Guo Da was still bald.

Compared to Katherine, Larry Page and the others around him, they were amazed by the excitement, but Guo Shouyun was full of memories.

But looking at Liu Zhixing, who was holding Nan Nan and staring at the TV screen, Guo Shouyun knew that perhaps his mood was the closest to him here.

The Spring Festival Gala lasted until 12 o'clock in the evening. When the bell rang, Guo Shouyun took the firecrackers he bought early to the yard outside the villa, and everyone set them up together.

Looking at the bright fireworks in the black night sky, the first New Year since rebirth is over.

Guo Shouyun's manor is big enough to arrange for everyone to live there. Considering that he has to go to work tomorrow, it is very late now, so no one rejects his proposal.

Early the next morning, his biological clock made him wake up on time at six o'clock.

However, when Guo Shouyun was running around the manor, he was not short of companions.

"I didn't expect you to like morning jogging too?"

Larry Page smiled, "I was influenced by "Forrest Gump" when I was in college and slowly fell in love with running! It's been almost six years now!"

"'Forrest Gump' is a good movie." Guo Shouyun nodded, "but by comparison, I'm not that active. If I hadn't joined the basketball team, maybe I'd be sleeping in it like them now. Sleep!"

"When I was in high school, I also wanted to join the school team, but unfortunately I really don't have the talent for sports!"

"Hehe, it looks like I won in this regard!" After smiling, "Isn't it going well for Google recently?"

"It's going well, and the encyclopedia is very complete. The pictures and news are also nearing completion. The Q&A will be slower, but it can be launched in March at the latest. But for music, it will have to wait until the second half of the year."

"Don't worry, we have enough time." After a pause, "Google has now completed the layout of the four markets of English, Spanish, French and Japanese. Is there any news from Yahoo?"

"Not yet. But I got news that the current Yahoo CEO Tim Kugel has a bad relationship with Jerry Yang, I'm afraid he will be replaced soon."

Guo Shouyun nodded, "Regardless of them, Google has become a trend now. Even if Yahoo is aware of the danger, it will not pose a threat to us!"

Larry Page agrees. Google is now without a doubt the world's number one Internet search engine provider. It occupies more than 50% of the share and is still growing.

"Bruce, when you decided to work with Yahoo, it was a genius plan. Otherwise, Google would never have grown so fast." Larry Page admired.

"I'm also a partner of Google, and it's a matter of course for the company to make suggestions." After a pause, "However, whether Yahoo's cooperation with us can continue in the future. We must wait until June to put 'side ads' ' and 'Bidding Ranking' are taken out, and we can't wait until all the funds in the account are used up, otherwise the company's financial security will be endangered."

Larry Page nodded in agreement, with excitement and anticipation in his eyes.

"I really want to see that day come sooner."

"Don't worry. Our time for Google to break into a butterfly is coming soon."

After Larry Page nodded, he frowned suddenly.

"Bruce, do you think we need another round of financing?"

"No need for the time being. But there are too many greedy capitals in the world. We also need allies to **** us."

"My concern is raising money too early to reflect the true value of Google. It will also cost us money," Larry Page said.

"I understand your concern. So we can first sign a letter of intent for financing by looking for the capital that intends to cooperate. When we get to the pe before the listing, let them invest themselves."

After nodding in agreement, Larry Page continued: "Then do you have a partner in mind?"

"certainly!"

"The Carlyle Fund is one, Blackstone, tpg, Fidelity, Bain Capital, Goldman Sachs, kkr, SoftBank. This is a temporary idea. But when the listing is about to come, the scope will expand. The more allies, the The better we can develop.”

Larry Page frowned and thought for a moment, he knew all the names Guo Shouyun said. They are all giants in today's global investment field. If they have their presence in Google's shareholder list, then there is no doubt that Google's road to internationalization will be much smoother.

"What about the shares being sold?"

Larry Page asked the question he cared about most.

"20% of the pe round is enough. Then 15% is raised for listing, and then the management sets aside 15% of the options~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Of course, there are superposition and liquidation, and the specific number of shares will have to wait until detailed and complex calculations. There is a final result."

Larry Page nodded in agreement, Guo Shouyun's plan was not much different from what he thought.

"I'm done running! What about you?" Guo Shouyun said after he stopped and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"I'm done too!"

"Let's go then. Take a shower, and we'll go to work after breakfast."

"I really want to go on vacation!"

"Vacation? Now is not the time for vacation."…

Chatting casually, the two walked towards the villa together.
