"Mr. Zhou, your UWB dual chipset patent registration should be passed recently. If you have any subsequent needs, you can tell us at any time.
This is Elmo, Elmo Wasser, who will be responsible for connecting with you later.
You can contact her anytime if you have any needs. "
Zhou Xin flew to Seattle to meet with Bill Gates and then stopped by San Francisco.
It was rare to have time to spend a day in San Francisco, so he asked his former college roommate Cao Yongluo to have dinner with him.
During the rare free time, Zhou Xin went to the law firm where he had previously applied for a patent to inquire about the status of patent registration.
This time he is no longer a cash-strapped Chinese overseas student, but a rising Internet star who enjoys a certain reputation throughout Silicon Valley and even America.
Therefore, the person who came to receive him this time was no longer an executive lawyer, but a partner of a law firm and a young and beautiful paralegal.
I don’t know whether it was intentional or not, but the partners of the law firm did not add the word “law” in front of any demand.
Zhou Xin stared at Elmo twice and then looked away. A white woman who could be a lawyer was not easy to mess with.
In later generations, even Bezos, the richest man, was divided into tens of billions of properties when he divorced.
Of course, this kind of marriage system also leads to many wealthy people who only talk about relationships without getting married.
Zhou Xin looked away and asked: "How long will it take for patent registration?
Is there a specific time? "
“We just recently went to the regulatory authorities and asked, if everything goes well, your patent registration will be approved in two weeks.
That's the week before the Christmas holiday.
If it doesn't go well, you'll have to wait until the first week after Christmas.
In addition, international patent applications are expected to be filed this month. "
To be able to become a partner, you must know everything you are doing.
Zhou Xin nodded: "Okay, I still have a batch of patent registrations that need someone to handle. After I sort them out, I will send this lady, Elmo, to pick up the materials."
After Zhou Xin finished speaking, he stood up and left, and Elmo Wasser quickly got up and went to see him off.
Zhou Xin's arrival was not unexpected. He had already greeted the law firm a day in advance.
So the partner told Elmo a day in advance: “This is your best chance.
With a net worth of over 100 million, he is still Chinese. You must know that Chinese people are very serious about relationships.
Of course, this still depends on what you want. "
Being able to have close and high-frequency contact with Zhou Xin is undoubtedly an opportunity for ambitious women.
There is no shortage of young, ambitious and beautiful trainee lawyers in law firms, and Elmo is just one of the best.
What Elmo needs to do is to help their law firm win business as much as possible.
"Sir, can I call you Newman? I saw you were called that in the magazine."
Newman is Zhou Xin's English name. Zhou Xin nodded: "No problem, it's hard for me to refuse a request from a beautiful girl."
Later Zhou Xin also talked to white women in Los Angeles, and there was more than one.
In his opinion, white women are very polarized. They are either pure love-minded and extremely focused on feelings, or they are very rational and rational enough that everything can be measured by interests.
During his Ph.D. studies in Los Angeles, he had never seen a more balanced white woman.
"Can you have dinner with me tonight after I get off work?
I have many questions to ask you. "Ai Mo showed a pitiful expression.
Zhou Xin relied on his own experience to judge that a female lawyer who could study as a lawyer and intern in a big law firm would not be able to save money. The other party would most likely be very sensible and very good at acting.
When he thought of this, Zhou Xin instantly felt more interesting.
But it really doesn’t work today:
"Sorry, I have an appointment with a friend tonight. I will make an appointment with you next time I come to the city."
Elmo nodded sharply, and his long hair was blown into the air by the cold winter wind. Then he took out a business card from the pocket of his plush coat and handed it to Zhou Xin: "Contact me anytime after you come to Los Angeles."
...
"Old Cao, long time no see."
I did have an appointment tonight.
After Cao Yongluo found out about Zhou Xin's appointment with him, he didn't tell Zhao Guangzeng at all.
Zhou Xin was only a multi-millionaire before, but now Zhou Xin's net worth is estimated to be over 100 million in major media.
It’s better to be cautious when meeting for the first time.
Even though he had lived in the same room with the other party for more than a year.
“Originally I planned to treat you to dinner when you first came to Santa Barbara for exchange.
As a result, there was never any time.
The past six months have been really busy.
Come on, come on, I'm treating you today. If you want to drink Remy Martin, I'll open a bottle for you. "
Cao Yongluo is indeed a nice person, and Zhou Xin doesn't mind spending more time with him.
Moreover, when he goes back in the future, he will inevitably need some connections and resources. Cao Yongluo can completely serve as his broker between the business and political circles.
“We don’t need to be so polite between brothers.
As long as you can cook.
I can't get used to drinking Remy Martin or anything like that. It smells like plastic. I really don't know why these nouveau riche people like it so much.
Moutai is better. It doesn’t burn your throat and makes you feel tipsy. "
Zhou Xin smiled: "How about a bottle of Moutai?
I asked the boss to get it. "
“Isn’t this an Italian restaurant?
Italian restaurant and Moutai? "
“In an Italian restaurant of this caliber, the customer is king.
If we want to drink it, even if they don’t have it, they will go to their counterparts in the catering industry to get it. " Zhou Xin explained.
Zhou Xin invited Cao Yongluo to have dinner at Bruno's Restaurant in the West District of Los Angeles, which only received private parties for five years from 1989 to 1994.
With its vaulted ceilings and baroque architecture, Bruno's feels more like a church than an Italian restaurant.
The dusk light filters through the tawny stained glass windows, casting a warm glow on the busts of Roman emperors Aurelius and Caracalla.
The whole environment highlights two words, high-end.
Cao Yongluo always had a loud voice. Even when he was eating at Yanjing Hotel, he mainly yelled when talking to the waiters.
After arriving here, he became soft-spoken.
“I’ve learned a lot.
After you came here, you were completely different from before.
Or the environment changes people.
The overall feeling of this restaurant is unlike any other in Yanjing. "
"Haha, you should know that I started my own business after coming to Los Angeles, right?"
"I know, you are in trouble now. Posts discussing you can be seen everywhere in the Yanda internal forum.
How could I not know?
Just now you said it's been a long time, but actually it's because you have experienced too much in the past six months, so it feels like it's been a long time. "
In the early years, the BBS forum of Yan University was called Sunshine Creative, and it came out almost at the same time as the BBS forum of Shuimu University.
Later, due to some special reasons, everyone's speeches were too intense and the site was shut down.
It wasn't until 2000 that a Weiming BBS was established again.
“Starting my own business occasionally requires business banquets, so I will be familiar with the restaurants in Los Angeles.
If it weren't for the banquet, why would I have come to a place like this? " Zhou Xin explained.
