Even on the plane back to San Francisco, Elon Musk was still digesting what Li Mu had said to him before, and he was increasingly looking forward to what Li Mu said about leading a revolution in clean energy.
Enough expectations can breed enough enthusiasm, just like injecting more fuel into an engine can obtain greater kinetic energy. Elon Musk feels that his thoughts have been truly sublimated. , he no longer simply thinks about the profit margin of a project, but starts to think about the positive value that this project can contribute to society.
This is also Li Mu’s hope for Elon Musk, to take the initiative to be a more responsible person, rather than letting society push him step by step, let alone over-interpretation and obscenity.
It was already one o'clock in the night when the plane took off. Li Mu took out a day to meet with Harvard officials to understand the progress of 3321 in the United States. He even took time to meet with Mark Zuckerberg in the evening and chose to take off at night. In order not to delay my work in Silicon Valley during the next day.
After the plane landed, Li Mu said goodbye to Elon Musk at the San Francisco airport. He and Su Yingxue went to the hotel where they were staying, leaving Su Yingxue to rest in the hotel. He took a shower, changed clothes, and then went to Makino Technology Meeting Lin Qingya and others, while on the plane, Chen Ze sent Li Mu good news: the central bank had issued a loan, and all 2.5 billion U.S. dollars had arrived. After the money arrived in the private equity fund's account, almost nothing was done. After staying, the money was immediately transferred to Makino Technology’s offshore account through an overseas bank.
Once the funds have arrived, the acquisition can no longer wait. Apple is like a girl about to get married, and Li Mu, as the prospective groom, is impatient.
Makino Technology's acquisition team in the United States all stayed in a five-star hotel in Silicon Valley. In order to ensure Li Mu's safety and privacy, Lin Qingya booked the top floor of the entire hotel in advance.
The top floor not only has the so-called presidential suite, but also multiple luxury suites, of which the presidential suite is the most luxurious. In addition to hundreds of square meters of indoor area, it even has a private swimming pool on the top floor. The top of this swimming pool is surrounded by an infinity pool. It is sheltered, surrounded by dense tropical plants and scenery to protect privacy, and there are no taller buildings than this hotel around, so the privacy of the guests is extremely well protected.
Li Mu and Su Yingxue took a Cadillac SUV to the hotel alone. On the way, Li Mu vaguely reminded her that the hotel room was very large, with a total of three bedrooms. If Su Yingxue chose to live in a suite with him, there would be additional There are two bedrooms for her to choose from. If she wants to live alone, there are three vacant rooms on the top floor of the hotel. Although they are vacant, they are paid for by Makino Technology, so Su Yingxue can choose as she pleases.
Su Yingxue said to Li Mu naturally without even thinking about it: "I'll live with you. Living alone in an apartment is too spacious, and there's no one to talk to."
Li Mu nodded and didn't think much about it.
Although Su Yingxue looked calm on the surface, her heart was pounding nervously.
After arriving at the hotel, Li Mu and his party got off directly from the VIP floor of the hotel's underground garage and took the exclusive elevator on the top floor to go directly upstairs. They would not meet any other hotel guests along the way. If they wanted, they could stay here. For a year, I will not meet any residents except the service staff.
After the elevator reached the top floor and opened the door, Li Mu walked out and said to Li Ziwei: "Ziwei, go back and take a shower and rest. We will leave for the company in an hour."
Li Ziwei asked Li Mu: "Mr. Li, do you want to rest a little longer?"
Li Mu waved his hand: "I slept for more than four hours on the plane, which is almost enough."
After that, Li Mu asked her: "How do you feel? If you are too tired, you can rest for a while before going over."
"I'm fine, Mr. Li." Li Ziwei said, "Then we'll set off in an hour. I'll notify the team and Mr. Lin."
Li Mu nodded, then took Su Yingxue's suitcase from her hand, walked side by side with Su Yingxue to the end of the corridor, and entered the hotel's only presidential suite.
After entering the room, Li Mu said to Su Yingxue: "The bedrooms in this suite are all inside. Outside are the living room, dining room, conference room and study room. I will go to the company in a while. You can have a good rest first. If you need anything, use the room." Just call the dedicated housekeeper at any time and ask her to do it for you."
Su Yingxue nodded, looked at the huge living room, and asked with a smile: "Have you ever lived alone in such a big room before?"
Li Mu smiled and said: "Otherwise? Should we find a roommate temporarily?"
Su Yingxue asked him: "The room is so big, are you used to living in it?"
Li Mu shrugged and said: "I was really not used to living in a big house alone at first. In Yanjing, the villa in Ziyun Villa is very empty when I live alone. When I first moved in, I sometimes felt so scared that I couldn't even sleep. I don’t dare to turn off the lights outside, but I’ll get better once I get used to it.”
As the two of them talked, they walked through several rooms and arrived at a pentagonal hall. Apart from the entrance, this pentagonal hall had four sides. There were doors on three sides, and there was a corridor on the left front. Li Mu Pointing to the corridor, he said to Su Yingxue: "This corridor leads to the terrace and the constant-temperature swimming pool. The swimming pool is large and has good privacy. You can bask in the sun from 10 am to 3:30 pm. You can come here to relax after you have rested."
Su Yingxue smiled and said: "I didn't bring a swimsuit..."
Li Mu joked, "It doesn't matter if you don't wear a swimsuit, no one can see it except me."
Seeing that Su Yingxue was blushing, Li Mu hurriedly smiled and said: "I'm kidding you, there is a connecting foyer when you walk past. There are brand new swimsuits and clean bath towels in the cabinets inside."
Su Yingxue dodged Li Mu's teasing eyes and nodded lightly.
Li Mu pointed to the room on the right front and said, "I have always lived in this room. There is no one in the other two rooms. You can choose any one."
Su Yingxue nodded, pointed to the room next to Li Mu's room, and said, "I'll live in this room."
Li Mu said: "Then I will help you deliver the box."
There are three bedrooms in the suite, and each bedroom is equipped with its own toilet and bathroom. After Li Mu pushed the box into the room, he said to Su Yingxue: "If you are tired, just go to bed and rest. I have to take a shower and change clothes quickly." Let's go. I'll try to come back to have lunch with you at noon. If I can't come back, I will call you in advance. You can ask the butler to prepare lunch for you. If you are bored and want to go out for a walk, remember to tell the butler. Whatever you want She will accompany you wherever you go, and if you need a car, the hotel will provide it.”
Su Yingxue said: "You don't have to worry about me. I like to stay alone the most. When I passed by the study just now, I saw that there seemed to be a lot of books in it. I can just find one to pass the day."
Li Mu smiled slightly and said, "I promise that I won't leave you alone in the hotel in the next few days. It's just that this matter is too important right now. I will accompany you for a walk after I arrange this matter."
Su Yingxue smiled softly and said: "It's okay, just go about your business."
After that, Su Yingxue looked at the time and said, "Go take a shower quickly. Time is quite urgent."
Li Mu nodded: "Okay, you should rest for a while. You must be tired after flying for more than six hours."
"good."
…
Li Mu returned to his room, took a quick shower, then set the alarm clock for an hour and a half, and squinted on the bed for a while to replenish his energy. When the alarm clock rang, he immediately got up, put on the prepared clothes, and went out immediately. room.
He thought Su Yingxue should be sleeping, but Li Mu did not disturb her and walked out quietly. When passing by the restaurant, he found a figure wearing a suspender dress and nightgown busy at the dining table. Li Mu took a closer look and saw that it was Su Yingxue.
"Yingxue, you didn't sleep?"
Su Yingxue was bringing food from a food delivery truck to the table. She heard the sound and knew that Li Mu had gotten up. She turned around and said with a smile: "Are you ready to leave? I asked someone to bring sandwiches and hot milk. You can eat some before leaving. .”
At this moment, Su Yingxue had long black hair, which was still a little wet. It seemed that it had just been washed not long ago. The lavender suspender dress on her body fit perfectly, revealing her white shoulders and a pair of perfect collarbones. , coupled with the slender and straight calves and ankles, it is so perfect that there is no fault.
Li Mu looked a little fascinated, but fortunately this state did not last long. He looked at the watch on his wrist and saw that there were still five minutes left before the agreed hour, so he said to Su Yingxue: "I'm almost there. , you have to leave first, you can eat and don’t worry about me."
Su Yingxue said hurriedly: "Then wait a moment."
As she spoke, Su Yingxue carefully wrapped a sandwich with wrapping paper, handed a cup of warm milk to Li Mu, and said, "Drink some milk first, and then eat the sandwich on the way. You are so smart, how much does breakfast do to people?" It’s important, you know it without me telling you, right?”
Li Mu nodded and smiled and said, "That's so considerate."
After saying that, he took the milk and drank most of it in one go.
Su Yingxue handed him the sandwich and told him: "If you are busy, don't bother coming back at noon. I can handle it by myself."
Li Mu nodded and said, "Okay, I won't come back if I'm too busy."
After saying that, Li Mu lowered his head, kissed her gently on the forehead, and said, "I'm in a hurry, I'll leave first."
Su Yingxue followed Li Mu to the door. When Li Mu opened the door, Li Ziwei was already standing three meters outside the door waiting for him. When she saw him opening the door and coming out, she bowed slightly to him and said, "Mr. Li, are we leaving on time? "
Li Mu nodded: "Leave on time."
Li Ziwei said: "The team is already waiting in the basement."
After saying that, Li Ziwei saw Su Yingxue following her, smiled at her and said, "Yingxue, good morning."
"Good morning, Sister Ziwei." Su Yingxue responded with a smile.
Li Mu turned around and said to her: "Go back to eat, I'm leaving."
After saying goodbye to Su Yingxue, Li Mu and Li Ziwei walked quickly to the elevator side by side. Li Ziwei said as they walked: "Larry Page from Google just called me and said that he hopes to make an appointment to meet with you. Regarding the last time you and him He has something very important to talk to you about;"
Li Mu nodded: "We'll make an appointment the day after tomorrow for the time being, and then tell him that I've been busy lately and the time may change at any time. I hope he'll understand."
When Larry Page came to him, they must have come to the conclusion that he would invest in Google. Although Li Mu couldn't wait to know how many shares Google was willing to squeeze out for him, he was still prepared to give Larry Page a little air. , make an appointment the day after tomorrow, and explain in advance that it may change at any time, which is intended to send a message: Google's things are not that important to you, and you have to avoid many things.
Passing on this kind of information will not only make you more proactive in the subsequent interview, but also make Larry Page and the entire Google leadership more uneasy in the period before the meeting.
"Okay, I'll reply to him later." Li Ziwei said, and continued: "I have already contacted Mr. Lin. The team members are waiting for you in the company's high-level conference room. You can start the meeting as soon as you arrive. Mr. Lin just said that US$2.5 billion has been transferred to the company’s offshore account and is waiting for your disposal 24/7.”
Li Mu snapped his fingers vigorously and said with excitement, "OK, the money has arrived, and the big show is about to begin!"
