98 Better Business
Stanford University, one of the largest schools in the United States and even the world, can be said to be a large town. Tao Weidong drove around for a long time and asked several times before he found his final destination.
This is an ordinary factory building with only three floors. If it weren't for Stanford University, Tao Weidong would have thought it was just an ordinary factory. After entering, the various facilities inside surprised him.
There are a lot of computers in front of me, and there are probably hundreds of them. They look like a large domestic Internet cafe. There are about 100 or 20 college students constantly patrolling between computers, and occasionally they choose a computer to perform some operations. However, Tao Weidong couldn't see clearly what was going on.
"Are these all mining bitcoins?" Tao Weidong had some speculation in his mind. He was arranged by his boss to buy bitcoins in the United States, so he would naturally study this thing called "bitcoin". Long before he set out to the United States and was still in China, he found out the principle of the existence of Bitcoin, the total amount is 21 million yuan and the current production speed of Bitcoin.
The speed of a computer mining Bitcoin lies in its configuration. No matter how garbage the computer is, it can still be at least two in a day. And so many computers in front of you, at least hundreds of Bitcoins will be more than he imagined in a year.
Thinking of this, Tao Weidong became even happier. He was not afraid of the large amount because he was not short of money!
This is the original words of the boss Zhou Yujie. How many acquisitions are made is his principle. However, many times, the distribution of Bitcoin is very scattered and difficult to purchase in a unified manner. However, his own acquisitions in small batches not only did the total number of acquisitions not only was there, but also wasted the funds given to him by Zhou Yujie to a large extent.
Therefore, Tao Weidong also attached great importance to this acquisition with a large total volume and made a lot of preparations before coming here.
"Are you Mr. Tao?" a blond female student came over and asked.
"Yes, it's me." Tao Weidong replied with a smile. He had made an appointment here, otherwise he would not have seen him.
"Okay, Mr. Tao, please come with me. Professor Wade is already waiting for your arrival in the office." The blonde girl said thinking.
"Thank you." Tao Weidong thanked politely.
Following the blonde beauty, Tao Weidong followed the staircase built by the iron bracket on the edge of the workshop to the third floor. This was a separate office with a large area, but the interior was very chaotic. On a large conference table in the middle, the screens of more than a dozen computers were placed in a mess, and there were some small office desks around, with at least two computers on each.
Seeing the blonde beauty coming in with an Asian-faced man, the only white-haired man in the office let go of the mouse in his hand, walked over with a smile, shook hands and said, "You are Mr. Tao, right?"
"Yes." Tao Weidong politely replied, saying, "Are you Professor Wade?"
"Just call me Charles." Charles Wade said with a smile as he greeted the few people walking in.
"OK, then please call me Tony." Tao Weidong also said that he has been in the United States for a while. Many Americans actually do not like deep class dialogue. Generally speaking, even superiors and subordinates of the company will call their names directly, unless the level gap is very large, it will be an exception.
"Sit." Charles took Tao Weidong to a small office inside, and the blonde beauty beside her was preparing coffee.
After a polite conversation between the two, they went straight to the topic and Charles asked tentatively: "Tony, I know you are buying Bitcoin in bulk, I want to know why this is?"
"It's very simple, because I'm optimistic about its future." Tao Weidong shrugged and said indifferently. In order to acquire Bitcoin, he has seen many Bitcoin holders in Los Angeles. Everyone will ask and he will also say the same answer. Anyway, no one who acquires Bitcoin or other digital currencies or even antique stamps is not like this.
"Haha..." Charles was not surprised, and this was also the expected answer, so he asked again: "Why don't you know how great your ambitions are Tony?"
"Just say that, no matter how many bitcoins you have in your hand, I can take them all." Tao Weidong took a sip of coffee and said calmly.
The budget Zhou Yujie gave him is really almost unlimited. Tao Weidong has priority to use the income of 2048 games on the American Apple APP, and Tao Weidong knew that this was a huge sum of money, and the monthly income could buy an apartment with a good location in downtown Los Angeles.
"I have more than 100,000 Bitcoins in my hand. Is Tony interested?" Charles laughed.
"100,000!" Tao Weidong said happily, "As long as the price is OK, the quantity is not a problem."
"It seems that Tony, you are not younger than me!" Charles laughed and said, "It's a pity that the Bitcoin in my hand has no intention of taking action for the time being."
"Then what do you ask me to do?" Tao Weidong was stunned for a moment and immediately returned to normal. He asked in a casual tone. He didn't believe that a professor would come to spend time with nothing to do.
"I won't take over the Bitcoin in my hands, but I invite Tony, you to come here for a better business." Charles chuckled softly: "Bitcoin has been around for several years. A large number of Bitcoins are actually trapped in some unknown places. In the past few years, many programmers may throw them away as garbage after digging coins, while some people subconsciously retain them.
Although you can still mine Bitcoin now, the characteristics of Bitcoin itself determine that it is becoming increasingly difficult to mine. Moreover, after a visionary capital like you enters, it will drive the value of Bitcoin, but it will also make it more and more difficult to mine coins.
So if you want to get enough Bitcoin quickly, the best way is to acquire a large number of acquisitions. Both you and I want to do so, but our problem is that you have enough funds, but there is no channel, and I have enough channels, but there is not enough funds.
So if we join forces, we will benefit from the two sides. I provide channels, you provide funds, we will quickly acquire Bitcoin, and we will share the 50% share of the Bitcoin we have obtained!"
"Five-five is impossible, I can consider it if it is eight-second." Tao Weidong slashed hard, no matter how the boss decided, he had to take a ruthless move first.
"Tony, the most important thing now is to acquire enough Bitcoin. Without my channels, you can't buy Bitcoin even if you have money, and I can get funds from other channels." Charles said dismissively.
Tao Weidong got the bag, made a gesture to get up, and smiled and said, "OK, but I still have to thank you, Charles, you let me know. I can cooperate with senior IT experts. If nothing else, I need to find such a person."
"wait(wait)..." Seeing that Tao Weidong seemed to be really ready to leave, Charles spitted a word out of his mouth and said, "I think we can still talk about it again. Maybe I should go and meet your boss!"
