Chapter 521 (1/2)
”Mark, I'm sorry...”
On the day when there was no shooting, Sonya met Mark Anderson at Beverly Hills. In order to show his strength, he sent people directly from Silicon Valley by private jet, accompanied by Jimmy Goodman and Linda.
”I know you are racing against the clock, but I think we still need to have a face-to-face talk and thank you for giving me this opportunity.”
He was polite and low mannered, and the honest Jimmy worked hard to get the other party to agree to go. It was a long way from joining Mark Anderson's web browser project.
According to the information that Jimi inquired about, Jim Clark, the founder of SGI, did not intend to do this project in the form of venture capital at all. Instead, he planned to be the president of the new company in person, and let Mark Anderson be the co-founder and technical vice-president.
This makes his playing an angel investor unattractive to Mark Anderson.
”Jim is very annoying and I hope he won't disturb my life after seeing this one.”
Big and strong as an athlete, Mark Anderson stepped on the lawn. ”Can you guarantee that? APLUS。”
”Of course Eh... ”
Sonya looked back like a thief and saw that Maria Kelly, who had sent them out, had just turned around and walked into the villa. She immediately threw her dog rope to Linda and threw it off jack, who was walking around her feet. ”Please believe my sincerity for your project. We talked about it in UIUC, didn't we? I wanted to invest in you, you know. ”
Mark Anderson, who has been guaranteed the bottom of Jim Clark's project, has no worries. Songya has no way to deal with it. He can't speak as hard as he did to perkinsley at Malibu beach.
”I'm sorry, I've decided to do it with Jim Clark.” Mark Anderson shook his head and refused.
”Don't you think about it? Accepting my investment plan will only give you more room for development. I will take 20% of my money to build the project. You are the president and the only founder. You have a lot more room for development than those who are left behind. ”
Two people walk on the lawn, do not chat, song Ya continues to advise.
”Aplus, I'm not much older than you. In fact, I'm just a rookie just graduated from university. I need a guide and have no intention of managing company affairs. I just want to focus on project development.”
This guy is also playing naive with song Ya's gradually invalid routine.
He is not a rookie at all. According to Linda's investigation, he had an internship at IBM during his college years. He met Jim Clark through a cooperative project with SGI there.
However, since he is willing to come, he must have some expectations. ”You may not know that the evolution speed of the world wide web is too fast. Since last year, everyone has been making contributions to it. There are many browsers like mosaic, and I don't have much time to waste. Mosaic was written by bina and I, but now I have fallen behind the imitators because mosaic belongs to UI UC, I can't use any old code yet. Everything has to be done again. ”
”But you also said that they are your imitators, and I have used some other browsers, all rubbish.”
Song Ya said: ”I have a music website project in Sunnyvale. The management staff, equipment and places are all ready-made, which can also provide you with a good environment.”
”Oh?” Mark Anderson got interested. ”Who's running that?”
”Dilly.”
”Who?”
”President of a + audio, you must have seen it, the white rapper who sang” remember the name ”with me
”Ha ha...” Mark Anderson shook his head and laughed. ”He's not a professional.”
”He was also involved in the venture capital of DTS, which is now worth tens of millions.” Song Ya said, ”if you think he is not professional, I can ask Dilai to hire a professional manager from a headhunting company...”
”Why?” Asked Mark Anderson in surprise.
”What, why?”
”Why are you so optimistic about the web browser project? You know, I haven't come up with any good profit model now... ” Mark Anderson said.
”I don't have anything to look down on. I think the mosaic you co wrote is very easy to use. You know I have a lot of money.” Song Ya replied. Can't say that he used that inexplicable sense of familiarity?
”Yes, it's a beautiful private jet.”
Mark Anderson laughed, ”your investment in Bain company is very successful. I also went to a nightclub to play fluorescent night at school. You make good use of the star's advantage of carrying goods, which makes me admire. Combined with your age, wow...”
Then he changed his words, ”but the way technology plays is different. Jim Clark is the best...”
They chatted for more than an hour. Song Ya always failed to instigate, so he had to step back. ”I don't exclude Mr. Clark, or you can take me one. Do you always need investors to share the risk? Since you say you can't find a good profit model, it's good to take more venture capital to decorate the office or something. ””Well, I'll go back and discuss it with Jim.”
This time Mark Anderson nodded and said, ”don't let Jimmy bother me again.” Before leaving, he dropped a word seriously.
