Although Li Yiwen is not the kind of person who regards money as his life, after all, he was originally an ordinary common man. Before he rose up with Lu Yiming, he was the kind of person who strictly controlled the amount of 30 yuan for a late-night snack when going out at night.

People who spend their money within the limit.

As a result, in less than a few months, tens of millions of dollars were suddenly coming in and out, which would be frightening to anyone.

Not everyone is as calm and calm as Lu Yiming.

Faced with Li Yiwen's worries and worries, Lu Yiming smiled and said: "Don't worry, cousin, how can you lose money by investing in Baidu? If you keep this share in your hands for ten or twenty years, it will be worth at least one to two billion US dollars."

.What will your $1.2 million mean to you then? This deal will definitely make you a profit."

Baidu's highest market value was in 2017, with a price per share of US$233.37 and a total market value of US$80.92 billion. Since then, it has been falling.

The reason is that there are no flagship products.

Except for Baidu Search, which is always used by people, there are basically no users for other services, because there are so many similar products on the market that they can be replaced seamlessly without even learning costs.

Originally, there was a Baidu Tieba that was unique in the world, but Baidu itself screwed it up, with all kinds of advertisements flying all over the place, which directly destroyed its reputation and goodwill.

In the end, it just went from a social software that could compete with Goose Factory, from one of the troika of the domestic Internet, to a second-rate role. The market value once fell to only half of a certain food delivery company. By the time Lu Yiming was reborn, he had basically become a second-rate player.

Lost in public.

Lu Yiming doesn't have a good impression of this company either.

Of course, making money is not shabby.

Just because the other person is not a good person doesn't mean you shouldn't take advantage of them.

The reason why Lu Yiming does not invest in Baidu is because of the existence of the non-competition clause. Otherwise, the money will be earned first. Moreover, Lu Yiming is also confident that if he is deeply involved in Baidu, he can try to stop it and prevent Baidu from going the way it once did.

old road.

But Li Yiwen was inevitably doubtful about what Lu Yiming said.

After all, those contents are simply too outrageous.

Buying shares for 1.2 million US dollars will be worth 20 billion in 20 years?

Nuclear-powered money printing machines don’t print like this, right?

Tens of thousands of times the return?

Even fraudsters dare not say this!

If the Internet was so profitable, which idiot would be willing to go into industry?

The investment is huge, but the results are slow and the risks are high. No matter how you look at it, it is not as comfortable as speculating on the Internet.

"Ten or two billion? Or US dollars... Is money that easy to earn? My cousin, are you drifting?"

Li Yiwen felt that if this sum was really so profitable, he would just retire tomorrow.

One to two billion, as long as you don't gamble or start a business, you will really be able to spend it all in this life.

Seeing the disbelief on his cousin's face, Lu Yiming immediately asked with a smile: "Then don't you want you to resell it to me? I'll buy it now at double the price."

When Li Yiwen heard what Lu Yiming said, he immediately became alert.

After all, Lu Yiming is a master who doesn't let the rabbit go before he sees it. If he is willing to pay double the price to buy it, it must mean that Baidu is up to something behind the scenes!

"Hey, I'm kidding you. We are two brothers in the same generation. How could I not believe you? Cousin, you have said it yourself. If you want me to be a qualified capitalist, then let's start with Baidu."

"Tch, get out."

Lu Yiming has many ways to make money, including Baidu. Moreover, only by letting the people around him make money can he live a more comfortable life.

"It's not enough for you to hold shares alone. I have to think of some ways to make it more secure. Okay, if you're done with your work over there, come back with Robin Li. Let's communicate more and cultivate feelings. After all, people

Now that you are the tool of making money for you, you should still care about it."

Lu Yiming felt that Li Yiwen's 30% stake alone was not enough. What he wanted to do was to find a few more partners to directly divide Baidu's shares, at least to firmly hold the right to speak.

.

The future domestic search engine market must be controlled as much as possible. This is not only a problem of Internet traffic entrance, but also the ability to guide and control public opinion in a certain sense.

The right to speak is really important. There is a big difference between having it and not having it.

After ending the call with Li Yiwen, Lu Yiming called Zheng Zhiguang.

"Ah Guang, long time no see, do you miss me? Do you want to treat me to Long Jing Xuan?"

Zheng Zhiguang was still very flattered when he suddenly received a call from Lu Yiming. If there were not those nine words at the end, he would be even happier.

"Mr. Lu, what can I do for you?"

Although Zheng Zhiguang was woken up by someone in his sleep, as soon as he heard Lu Yiming's voice, he instantly threw away the anger in his heart.

Lu Yiming smiled and said: "What kind of service can I not do? I am sending you money this time."

"Send money?"

Zheng Zhiguang frowned, doubting what he said.

Although he made a small profit by following Lu Yiming in ruble speculation, but if you look at it in detail, Lu Yiming cheated him more times than he made money with him.

Lu Yiming heard Zheng Zhiguang's hesitant tone and immediately became unhappy: "What? You don't seem to believe it. Do you think I want to take advantage of you? Am I that kind of person?"

Zheng Zhiguang quickly said: "Mr. Lu is joking, why do I think that way?"

Lu Yiming's expression brightened slightly: "I have recently taken a fancy to a project, but I can't invest because of a contract. I have asked my cousin to invest US$1.2 million. Are you interested in joining this project?

If it’s done, I guarantee you a 100,000% return rate within ten years.”

"One hundred thousand percent? A thousand times? Mr. Lu, why do you sound like bragging to me?"

What kind of project can make a thousand times profit in ten years?

If you invest 10,000 yuan now, it will become 10 million yuan in ten years?

I'm so stupid, Kennedy didn't even have such a big brain. Have you ever been hit in the head with a cannon?

Lu Yiming naturally didn't care what Zheng Zhiguang was thinking. He said in a calm tone: "When have I ever boasted? I always treat people with sincerity in my words and deeds, and I never talk big words. If you think it's unreliable, forget it. I

Find someone else to say goodbye..."

He remembered that in the original time and space of 2000, in the ninth month after Baidu was founded, Robin Li received US$10 million from venture capital investors Defengjie and IDG.

Zheng Zhiguang now has some spare money, and he has connections in foreign banks and a wealthy background. At least he can provide Baidu with a lot of valuable help.

After several cooperations, Lu Yiming gradually recognized his ability and attitude, so this time he called Zheng Zhiguang to get on the bus and give him a chance to make a fortune.

Although Zheng Zhiguang felt that what Lu Yiming said was too exaggerated to be true, he thought that everything Lu Yiming had done in the past few months was groundbreaking and extraordinary. In addition, when it came to making money, Lu Yiming was indeed

He has never failed once, and he has won every battle.

So after thinking about it and weighing it in his mind, Zheng Zhiguang responded with the mentality of "I would rather kill the wrong person than let him go": "How can it be possible? Since Mr. Lu said there is money to be made, then there must be money to be made.

, which followed me."

Then, Lu Yiming remembered another person, nodded, and said: "By the way, you can tell Lin Shuyi that if she is interested, she can also join in. I won't remind her separately."

"OK."

On Lin Shuyi's side, Zheng Zhiguang naturally did not dare to neglect. After ending the call with Lu Yiming, Zheng Zhiguang called immediately.

If he didn't make this call, if he really made a lot of money in the future, if Lin Shuyi knew the truth, she would have to skin him and cut him into pieces.

Half an hour later, Lu Yiming had just begun to feel sleepy and was about to take another deep sleep, when the cell phone placed next to him suddenly rang.

"yawn……"

Lu Yiming picked up his phone and looked at it, and found that it was Lin Shuyi. He immediately complained helplessly: "Miss Lin, you started working so early?"

On the other end of the phone, Lin Shuyi was not polite to Lu Yiming at all. She asked directly: "Aguang said you asked him to invest in a project called Baidu, and also asked me to invest as well. Is this the case?"

Lu Yiming was amazed at Lin Shuyi's vigorous and decisive manner in doing things, and he did not deny it: "Yes, I called him to help him earn some pocket money. What's the matter? Miss Lin doesn't want to earn this pocket money anymore?"

On the phone, Zheng Zhiguang talked so much that the investment income made Lin Shuyi think they had discovered a new world. Lin Shuyi herself is a person who is used to maintaining rational thinking. Before meeting Lu Yiming, she had always been cautious in doing things.

Of course I won’t believe the nonsense about a return rate of tens of thousands of times in a few years.

Among them, the most critical problem is that for such a good project, Lu Yiming didn't invest any money in it!

This is a huge departure from the world!

After all, in Lin Shuyi's view, Lu Yiming is a person who is good at calculations. When it comes to making money, he dares to risk his life more than anyone else and regards risks as nothing.

If there really is such a good money-making project, why doesn’t Lu Yiming himself invest in it?

Therefore, without saying anything, Lin Shuyi directly called Lu Yiming to verify the matter and at the same time test his thoughts.

Therefore, facing Lu Yiming, Lin Shuyi was too lazy to talk about him and asked bluntly: "This is not a question of whether I want to make money. If the project is really that good, why don't you invest in it yourself?"

This question is the key.

Lin Shuyi doesn't care about whether the project is rewarded or not. As long as there is no problem with the project, Lin Shuyi will dare to do it no matter how outrageous it is. After all, investing in this kind of thing is essentially gambling. Winning or losing is a matter of probability. Wealth can be gained through risk.

But the key now is that Lu Yiming, the most greedy person, did not even get on the bus himself, but actively encouraged others to get on the bus. This is problematic no matter how you look at it.

A person who values ​​wealth as much as his life suddenly tells you that I have a good project here that will make you money. If you invest, you will get rich. Can you believe this?

People are working hard. If I don’t do the hard work of making money, why don’t I let you do it?
