Chapter 886 (2/2)

Kong Lingyu said with a smile, ”yes, PayPal's contact person is very interested. He not only gives the highest rating, but also gives us the highest priority.”

Saying that, Kong Lingyu suddenly thought of something and blurted out: ”right! Almost forgot! PayPal's contact person said that their CEO told our contact person through him that he would like to have an opportunity to meet you, whether in China or the United States. ”

Li Mu frowned and asked him, ”who is their CEO?”

There are two founders of PayPal, Li Mu, who are familiar with each other Elon.Musk One is Elon Musk Peter.Thiel Peter Thiel.

Needless to say, the former is the founder of Tesla and SpaceX, known as the iron man of Silicon Valley; the latter is also a very bullish person. He is a famous investor in Silicon Valley, who first invested 500 thousand dollars to Mark Zuckerberg to create Facebook, and his profits are more than ten thousand times of the investment.

Both of them are big bulls in the Internet and capital industries, but it's unclear who is PayPal's CEO right now.

At this time, Kong Lingyu said, ”I don't remember their CEO's name, mascot. ”

” Oh... ” Li Mu said with a smile, ”Elon Musk.”

”Yes, that's the name.” Kong Lingyu said in surprise, ”boss, are you familiar with paypal?”

Li Mu laughed and said, ”Alipay is inspired by them. How can they be unfamiliar?”

Said Li Mu: ”you ask the contact person to help me convey a message to him. I don't have a U.S. passport. If he is not in a hurry, he can wait for me to visit him when I arrive in the United States. If he is in a hurry, please come to China at any time. I will do my best.”

Kong Lingyu said, ”OK, let me talk to the contact person.”

After hanging up the phone, Li Mu smiled. Unexpectedly, Elon Musk took the initiative to say he wanted to see himself. What did he want? Invest in yourself?

At first glance, Li Mu felt a little excited. After all, he was the first silicon valley tycoon and super Daniel to send an invitation to meet him. It must be a happy thing to be appreciated by super Daniel.

But a moment later, Li Mu slapped his forehead, and the smile on his face disappeared.

”Wait a minute, it doesn't seem right! Elon Musk is not a big bull at the moment! He's just about to sell PayPal to eBay at most, as if the deal was only concluded in October. ”

”PayPal is just a payment channel now. It's not really driven by cattle. How much can it be sold? If I remember correctly, I only sold more than one billion dollars in my last life. How many shares does Elon Musk have? More than ten percent of the money, two or three hundred million dollars. Why should he vote for me? ”

After careful consideration, Li realized that his current conservative value is several times that of Elon Musk, and with the constant popularity of YY in the overseas market, his own value is still rising. If this round of financing of pastoral technology can get the sky value, then he will directly become the richest man in China, at least ten times that of Elon Musk 。

Why does Elon Musk want to find himself? He wants to do it with himself? Or do you want to invest? Or just want to make friends with yourself?

Li Mu thought it over in his heart. There are three possibilities, but the first and the third are not obvious.

By contrast, he thinks Elon Musk is more likely to want to find his own investment. Although he is bullish, he doesn't have much money in his hand. It's estimated that as soon as PayPal is sold, he will take the money and invest in space projects. Isn't it because he thinks that he is a Chinese upstart who looks like a big enemy and runs to pull himself to invest in his SpaceX?

It's not true. Li Mu once read the relevant books of Elon Musk, and was very impressed that although he established SpaceX this year, the real investment of 100 million US dollars was in 2006 four years later. Is he interested in investing now?

Li Mu doesn't know anything about space and aviation, and he doesn't invest in it even if he has free money. The R & D investment cycle is long, the return cycle is longer, and there are many setbacks in the middle. Instead of following the blind investment, let Elon Musk himself struggle for a few years. When the financial crisis in 2008, he saved enough capital, and then take the opportunity to copy his bottom Ah!
