Reborn in 2010, the AI ​​in my mind is too powerful.

Chen Yiran stayed in Shenzhen for another three days and finalized all of DJI's equity.

Other previous investors were surprised to learn that Wang Tao had given up the company, but when they learned the final price, they all nodded in agreement and happily signed the agreement to transfer their shares.

They were very satisfied; in just one or two years, they had earned dozens of times their initial investment and achieved financial freedom.

When everything was finally settled and Chen Yiran was preparing to leave Shenzhen, the municipal government realized that the investment promotion bureau was very eager for Chen Yiran to stay in Shenzhen for a couple more days so that they could host him.

The China Merchants Group is in a bind. Who could have imagined that someone of Chen Yiran's stature would launch a sudden attack without any warning?

What's more, they arrived on Friday, and no one works on Saturday and Sunday. By the time they realized what was happening, Chen Yiran was already leaving.

It's not that they really need Chen Yiran's investment. For a city like Shenzhen, losing an investment is nothing. Besides, they've already heard that Chen Yiran has bought a company in Shenzhen, which gives them something to brag about.

However, if Chen Yiran goes to another city, is received there, and leaves behind a larger investment, then they will be in a very passive position.

It's inevitable that they'll be dragged into the criticism; after all, there's no harm without comparison.

However, they ultimately failed to retain Chen Yiran. On Wednesday, Chen Yiran led her team to Hangzhou, this time also bringing Wang Tao with her.

Having learned from Shenzhen's experience, Hangzhou reacted quickly this time.

They learned from Xiaoshan Airport that Chen Yiran's private jet had applied for a flight to Hangzhou. An hour later, they sent someone to Shenzhen to invite Chen Yiran to give them a chance to be received.

Chen Yiran did not refuse; this trip to Hangzhou was indeed necessary to cultivate a good relationship with the Hangzhou government.

When the plane landed on the Xiaoshan business jet parking apron, a motorcade from Hangzhou was already waiting, consisting of more than a dozen black Audis and a number of motorcycle escorts.

The reception was also quite extravagant. Vice Mayor Li, along with the director of the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Bureau, Director Zheng Kai of the Investment Promotion Bureau, the director of the Municipal Science and Technology Commission, and the mayor of Binjiang District, all met him directly at the airport.

After exchanging brief greetings, the car drove to the Huanglong Hotel, which has always been the first choice for receptions by the Hangzhou Municipal Government.

At the hotel, Chen Yiran also met with representatives of Zhejiang businessmen who had come to accompany him.

This is the real big shot, none other than Jack Ma, the current number one Zhejiang businessman.

The exchange took place in a very formulaic manner in a conference room at the hotel.

The investment promotion company showed a promotional video for Hangzhou, which lasted about ten minutes. Then they showed a PowerPoint presentation about the Binjiang District High-tech Industrial Park. Zhao Zhiwei displayed several industrial maps circled in red on the big screen and then began to introduce policies such as three years of tax exemption and two years of tax reduction, as well as supporting talent apartments.

Chen Yiran asked a few questions about transportation infrastructure and power supply, which Zhao Zhiwei answered very fluently.

The two sides communicated as if they had rehearsed, exchanging words back and forth to get the exchange done.

The Hangzhou government doesn't necessarily need Chen Yiran to say anything immediately; the main thing is that it needs to be included in the press release.

Chen Yiran's performance impressed them and made them feel very comfortable.

No wonder they're children of state-owned enterprise employees; that's such a fitting description.

The group posed under several maps for the reporters to take some photos before heading off to eat.

The lunch was arranged at Lou Wai Lou, a time-honored restaurant by West Lake. The private rooms on the second floor offer a view of the Broken Bridge from the windows.

While business hospitality should also avoid waste, this isn't like Jack Ma, where there's no need to worry about hospitality costs; the government won't spend a single penny.

When the four signature dishes were served, Chen Yiran quickly tried the famous West Lake Vinegar Fish. He had never been to Lou Wai Lou in his previous life, but he had eaten this dish at Hangzhou Restaurant. Although his parents said it was hard to eat, he thought it was pretty good.

But after taking a bite, Chen Yiran fell silent. This dish from Lou Wai Lou really made him want to throw it into West Lake.

Jack Ma laughed and said, "It's normal if you don't like it. Even locals might not be able to get used to it. Try these few. The other three of the four signature dishes are generally well-regarded."

The other three signature dishes are Longjing Shrimp, Dongpo Pork, and Song Sao Fish Soup.

All three were indeed good, but Chen Yiran secretly chose the crispy fried tofu skin as the best dish of the night.

During the dinner, the conversation became much more normal. Chen Yiran hinted that although he wanted to acquire a company, he did not have any plans to make large-scale investments in Hangzhou in the short term.

The leaders didn't say anything; they felt that acquiring a company was already a good start, and who knows when it might expand.

After the meal, Vice Mayor Li and several other leaders said goodbye, leaving only Binjiang District Mayor Zhao Zhiwei and Jack Ma behind. They would take Chen Yiran on a tour of Alibaba that afternoon.

The convoy drove from the West Lake to Wenyi West Road. At that time, Alibaba's Xixi Park was not yet completed. Alibaba was now located in the Wangshang Road Park in Binjiang District, consisting of several gray-white buildings of more than ten stories.

On the electronic screen in the lobby on the first floor, there is a real-time transaction map of Taobao. Pink lines radiate from Hangzhou to the whole country, and each line represents a transaction that is taking place.

Jack Ma led Chen Yiran from the main building to Building 2. Along the way, he talked about Alibaba's culture, Taobao's C2C model, and whether small and medium-sized enterprises should have better platforms than large enterprises, and so on.

Then, Jack Ma very purposefully led Chen Yiran to the Alibaba Cloud project team, which was clearly a new project that Alibaba attached great importance to, occupying an entire floor.

Project leader Wang Jian was already waiting at the door. He took over from Jack Ma and began to introduce the current work at Alibaba Cloud: "We were founded on September 10, 2009, and have now developed Apsara, a fully independent, large-scale general-purpose computing operating system that can serve the world."

After a while of boasting, Jack Ma added from the side: "I have to say, it really burns through a lot of money, but I will give him a billion every year, and I will invest for at least ten years. Without cloud computing, business will be like a person without legs."

Even without asking Jasmine, Chen Yiran's current perspective clearly shows what this "flying immortal" really is; he's just a middleman.

Develop the hardware yourself, then rent it out.

Of course, quantitative change leads to qualitative change. When the number of hardware devices reaches a certain level, such as hundreds of thousands of machines, it becomes very troublesome to coordinate them into a resource pool.

But this is nothing new; Amazon, Google, Microsoft, and IBM are all industry giants.

Amazon is now the benchmark, Google is the pioneer of academic papers, Microsoft is just emerging but has spent more money than Alibaba, and IBM has a large number of stable enterprise customers.

This should be Jack Ma's target this time. In large-scale general computing, Chen Yiran is now the industry god, and they may want to act as a middleman and buy from Chen Yiran.

Now was not the time for specific discussions. They didn't stay long before Jack Ma took Chen Yiran on a tour of the place.

Around 3 a.m., Chen Yiran said goodbye to return to her hotel to rest. Jack Ma invited her, "There's a place by West Lake called Jiangnan Club. I set it up myself, not many people know about it. Want to come over for tea tonight?"

Chen Yiran was reluctant to agree because he had a very bad impression of Jack Ma, but after all, this was Hangzhou, and Jack Ma wasn't some up-and-coming tycoon like Wang Tao. He nodded and said, "Okay, I'll definitely be there."
