Restart the Flying Age

Wu Tao is not good at playing financial warfare.

But seeing that Molly was so enthusiastic about it, he was relieved.

With Molly in charge of the overall situation, he only needs to occasionally record a meeting and have a coffee and chat with Mr. Anderson, the founder of Netscape, and that is enough.

In addition to this, Wu Tao put more energy on the R&D team preparing the school intranet and blog.

After a day of rushing, the location of this new Internet technology company was set on the site of a company not far from Tianxing Game Company on 101 Avenue.

In the days when the Internet bubble was booming, almost every day, Silicon Valley companies closed their doors.

The place Wu Tao liked was once a medium-sized company, and its stock price soared to more than $40.

Nowadays, people go to the building to be empty, and the company's main building and two auxiliary buildings are also sold at a low price.

Wu Yingying took Wu Tao after the tour, and asked carefully, "Boss, will this company's prosperity and decline be unlucky?"

Wu Tao waved his hand and said: "Don't be afraid, Tianxing Game Company was a bankrupt small company. Isn't it developing well now?"

In fact, this is also caused by the different environments and humanities of the two countries.

Most of the investment and construction of factories in China are for auspiciousness and a new outlook. In addition, the construction cost is relatively low, so many owners choose to build their own factories.

In the United States, especially those in the Internet industry, there is a garage that can do research and development. The initial investment will often be used for cutting-edge things such as the purchase of servers, and will never be used to build factories and buildings.

However, the next day, when Bill Babbitt brought his team and his team over, he was shocked.

"Mr. Wu, my boss, could it be that this is where the new company is located, where we will develop in the future?"

Wu Tao nodded and glanced at the seven people except Bill. Except for the two Indians, the other five were all white.

This number is still a bit smaller than I expected.

Obviously, Bill also realized and explained in a series of surprises: "Boss, I didn't expect you to invest so much in one fell swoop, so this time the number of people brought is not large. But I can guarantee that all of them are Senior programmer."

That said, it is not difficult to understand.

At least judging from the number of people brought this time, Bill should have used his brain a bit.

Without knowing Wu Tao's follow-up investment actions, if the number of people is too large and the new boss can't eat it, it will be embarrassing. On the contrary, if the number of people is reduced, that would not be appropriate. Because on the one hand it seems that he has no influence, on the other hand, he can't undertake the development of the project, which is useless.

As the programmer Jim Fellman who was dragged by Bill Sheng, he was a tall, thin, bearded white man.

He had already received excavations from Microsoft and got a good offer. If Bill hadn't had a good relationship with him, he wouldn't have been moved by it.

But even so, he was a little disappointed when he saw Wu Tao's first side.

He is actually an Asian Chinese, and he is still so young!

Their country is so backward, how much do they know about an industry as trendy as the Internet?

But when Bill and Wu Tao determined that the location here is the new company in the future, Jim's eyes finally changed slightly.

Not only him, but the other six people also looked at everything around them enthusiastically, imagining their pride as the veteran of the company.

At this moment, Bill Babbitt suppressed his excitement and asked, "Mr. Wu, how much is your first investment?"

Wu Tao held up **** and said: "Twenty million dollars!"

Bill and his party were stunned, looking at each other, and no one said anything.

Wu Tao glanced at the reaction and quickly added: "Of course, if it is not enough, it can be added. At that time, the company's investment and financial work will all be done by my investment company, and you can apply at any time."

Bill waved his hand again and again: "No, no, no, my boss, the first investment is so big, it's already quite impressive." Immediately after thinking about it, he sighed: "It seems that I have to go back and dig some more talents..."

At this time, Jim suddenly intervened and asked: "Mr. Wu, for the product you are interested in, I think it is more like a developer product. It is expected that the market will be very limited, and I am afraid that it will not match your large investment. ."

Wu Tao's eyes narrowed. The meaning of this product is probably that he is an old hat in the Internet world, and he knows nothing about throwing money.

"Jim, can I call you Jim?" Wu Tao showed the aura of a superior as soon as he opened his mouth. After all, this is not the time to keep a low profile.

"...It is precisely because the products I feel currently do not meet the expectations of the majority of target users, that's why I hired you to develop them with a high salary."

"...If one day, when it is launched on the market, it will still be a developer product, at least it means that your research and development work is not in place."

"...Of course if you bring out a product that I am satisfied with, but the market response is not good, that will be my problem. In fact, I believe this will not happen."

Jim's blue eyes stared at Wu Tao for a long time before he came back to his senses.

From these words, he could hear ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The young Chinese man in front of him has a clear demand for the product he wants, and he is very confident in the future market prospects of this product.

Since this is the case, that is enough.

Bill took the conversation and asked, "My boss, have you thought of a name for this new company?"

"Yes, I think about it." Wu Tao nodded, "SkyScape, SkyScape Internet Technology Company, how about it?"

Bill's eyes lit up, ‘this is clearly related to NetScape’s NetScape, and to a certain extent it makes it easy for his group to agree with it. ’

At this point, SkyScape officially came into being, address 668 101 Avenue.

After seeing the site of the new company and the magnanimity of the investment boss, Bill returned to Netscape to dig people much more smoothly.

Although the hearts of the people have fluctuated during this period, many people have successively received offers from Microsoft.

Today's Microsoft is booming, with huge profits, and it's really a good place to go.

For mediocre programmers, this is true.

However, programmers with a little bit of ability under their hands don't think so. They are more inclined to choose challenging jobs.

Start first to be strong, then start to suffer.

So Bill took the opportunity to agitate and lobbied, and he really got a lot of good hands.

Bill moved quickly, and finally the number was fixed at 20 people. He has formed a capable technical team and completed a medium-scale software development project.

Moreover, Wu Tao respected his proposal and approved everyone's offer salary without changing a word.

In his plan, these are all seed players. On the one hand, they serve as the development team of the school intranet technology prototype, and on the other hand, they are also prepared for the follow-up school intranet and more local Internet R&D teams.
