Rebirth 2003: Dominate the Tech World

Chapter 100



After sending Xu Lei away, Ye Yunzhou was about to sort out the game plan. Just as he turned on the computer, Lu Qi called.

“Dr. Lu, what’s the matter?”

“President, about the financing of Cambrian.”

“Well, wait for me in the company, I’ll be there soon.”

“……”

It’s better not to talk about the core secrets of this company on the phone, although Ye Yunzhou’s phone has been encrypted by the super artificial intelligence Jarvis.

Ye Yunzhou walked out of the Yanjing Science and Technology Building with his laptop.

Walking out of the company, Ye Yunzhou found that the sky was covered by thick clouds, and the drizzle was continuous, as if covering the city with a layer of gauze. The rain was fine and continuous, gently hitting the ground, making a rustling sound, and blending into the surrounding environment.

The sycamore trees on both sides of the street looked particularly green under the nourishment of the rain, and the fallen leaves were blown away by the wind. Occasionally, a few fallen leaves gently rotated on the ground with the flow of rain. The rain formed a small stream on the sidewalk, flowing slowly along the roadside.

Most pedestrians were wearing raincoats or holding umbrellas, walking hurriedly, as if they were all looking for a place to shelter from the rain. Their faces were either thoughtful or anxious. Occasionally, pedestrians talked in the rain, and their laughter was particularly crisp in the rain.

Ye Yunzhou frowned and thought, when I came to the company in the morning, the sky was still clear, how come the weather changed in just a few hours?

Ye Yunzhou did not bring rain gear. Although the Yanjing Technology Building was not far from the Origin Building of Cambrian, he would definitely get soaked if he walked there.

Oh, it seems that I have to buy a car.

After waiting for about ten minutes, Ye Yunzhou finally got a taxi, which made Ye Yunzhou more willing to buy a car.

The president’s office of the Origin Building.

Ye Yunzhou sat in his boss chair, opposite Lu Qi, the vice president and chief technology officer of Cambrian.

“Tell me, Dr. Lu, what’s going on?”

“President, good news. The day before yesterday, after our ‘Trading Treasure’ issued an announcement to open it to other e-commerce platforms, many investment and financing institutions contacted us, and the valuation of our Cambrian company has been greatly increased.” Lu Qi said with joy.

“Oh, how much do they quote for our Cambrian company now?”

Ye Yunzhou certainly knew that once “Trading Treasure” was opened, the valuation of the entire Cambrian company would increase, because it meant that the upper limit of the Cambrian company was raised.

Think about it, if “Trading Treasure” became a global payment platform, how much would it be worth? Of course, the opening of “Trading Treasure” will definitely have an impact on “Jiabao.com”, but for the entire Cambrian company, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages, and far outweigh the disadvantages.

“Softbank’s offer is the highest, at $15.5 billion. Sequoia Capital’s Shen Peng offered $15 billion. Goldman Sachs’ offer was also significantly increased, this time offering $14.5 billion. Carlyle Capital and IDG also offered $14.5 billion…”

“Well, continue to contact them and tell them that we will definitely start the A round of financing before the end of the year.”

Lu Qi nodded, and after a moment of silence, he said: “President, should we do a screening for the opening of domestic platforms? There are many small e-commerce platforms in China recently. The quality of the things sold by these small platforms cannot be guaranteed. If we open them to them, it may damage the reputation of our “Trading Treasure.”

Ye Yunzhou thought about it and it was indeed the case. In the previous life, there were many small platforms that relied on the endorsement of large platforms or big brands to harvest ordinary consumers with inferior products. He himself was fooled at the beginning.

“It is necessary to do a screening first, which can be regarded as a check for consumers.”

Lu Qi nodded and wrote down Ye Yunzhou’s words.

“Also, let the team of ‘Trading Treasure’ be prepared. Once it is open, the registration of ‘Trading Treasure’ may have a blowout process. We cannot let the server crash and give users a bad experience.”

Lu Qi nodded and said, “Okay, I will pay attention to it personally.”

“Trading Treasure” has issued a statement, promising to open to other domestic platforms after the National Day. Today is September 28th, and the team only has eight or nine days to prepare.

Of course, there is no problem with the technology, because “Trading Treasure” is written by the super artificial intelligence Jarvis, but it is afraid of server overload, so it is important to make predictions and rent enough servers.

“By the way, President, there is one more thing. The Singapore government sent us an invitation through the embassy in China, hoping that our Cambrian company can set up a branch in Singapore. They promised that as long as we go there to conduct business, they will give us the most favorable policies.”

As soon as Lu Qi said this, Ye Yunzhou couldn’t help but sigh, worthy of being the future Asian financial center, the Singapore government’sThis vision is indeed unmatched by others.

“Since others have invited us so sincerely, we have to respond. We will first select some key personnel of the company to go to Singapore to establish a Southeast Asian branch. Let’s use Singapore as a pilot for the internationalization of our Cambrian.”

“Okay, President.”

Originally, Ye Yunzhou planned to let Cambrian start the internationalization process in 2004, but plans cannot keep up with changes. Since the Singapore government can issue an invitation and promise to give preferential conditions, it must be seized. Ye Yunzhou still trusts the business environment of Singapore. From the previous life, the rich people of Xia country moved to Singapore, we know that this country has great efforts to protect personal property.

“Oh, by the way, President, there is one more thing I almost forgot.”

“Oh, what else?”

“Well, there is a European family called Rothschild. I wonder if the president has heard of it.”

Lu Qiyi said, and Ye Yunzhou remembered that before his rebirth, he had read a book called “Currency War”, and the protagonist of the conspiracy theory in it was this family.

In fact, the Rothschild family is a German Jewish banking family that originated in the late 18th century and is famous for its financial influence in Europe and even the world. The family’s history can be traced back to Mayer Amschel Rothschild, a money changer who later became an important banker in Frankfurt.

Mayer Amschel had five sons who were sent to major European cities to establish banking networks: Amschel stayed in Frankfurt to continue his father’s business. Leopold went to Vienna. Nathan went to London and established the most successful branch of the family there. Karl set up a branch in Naples. James went to Paris.

In this way, the Rothschilds created a multinational financial empire that was able to quickly transfer information and funds. This organizational structure made them particularly profitable during the Napoleonic Wars, especially after the Battle of Waterloo, when Nathan Rothschild successfully exploited the asymmetric market information to make huge profits.

Over time, Rothschild family members gradually expanded into other areas, including the wine industry, philanthropy, and investment management. Although their wealth and influence have changed over time, many branches are still active in today’s society, and some members of the family still have important positions in the financial world.

Notably, the Rothschilds are also the target of conspiracy theories and anti-Semitic rhetoric, which often exaggerate their actual influence and spread false information. In fact, while the family did have great economic influence in the past few centuries, many stories about them are unconfirmed legends or misunderstandings.

Retracting his thoughts, Ye Yunzhou replied: “I know a little bit, what? Are they interested in our company?”

Lu Qi nodded: “They want to talk to you in person. This family is still influential in the financial field in Europe. I think they are interested in our “Trading Treasure.”

Ye Yunzhou frowned and began to ponder. He was thinking about the pros and cons of cooperating with this family. This family is mainly engaged in finance, and Trading Treasure is to solve online payment problems. It seems that they have nothing to do with each other.

However, there is a close relationship between online payment software and finance. Online payment software simplifies the financial transaction process and enables users to make payments at any time and place.

“Well, you should contact them first. Compared with American investment institutions, this family still has some influence in Europe. If we want to develop the European market in the future, there may be opportunities for cooperation.”

Ye Yunzhou actually didn’t want to cooperate with this family. It might be troublesome to cooperate with these Jewish families in the future.
