Xu Zhe looked at the two girls opposite him again.
Tang Lingfei couldn't help curling her lips: "I thought you weren't talking to me."
Xu Zhe: "Since you two are here, I'm telling you this. Do you want to guess what Gu Gou's price is?"
Tang Lingfei shook her head: "I can't guess. Is that Eureka company engaged in artificial intelligence? I don't understand anything about that."
Song Xingye analyzed seriously, "It's normal for Gugou to want to acquire it. Qiandu, which wanted to cooperate with Professor Zou before, is also a search engine giant. I don't quite understand the AI algorithm you mentioned, but it can recognize pictures, right? This is the ability that search engines need the most. So the price offered by Gugou will definitely not be low..."
Shen Lan directly gave a number: "30 million?"
Xu Zhe shook his head: "No, ten million is just rice yuan."

After lunch, other students went back to class, but Xu Zhe had to stand outside the teaching building.
Because Associate Professor Zou Tianyan called him.
On the phone, Associate Professor Zou asked: "We have also contacted Softmicro and Qiandu, but Gugou is the most sincere. What should we do? Sell it to them?"
Xu Zhe: “What do you think?”
Zou Tianyan: "This number makes me a little dizzy. But I am also wondering, if we don't sell it, can we..."
Xu Zhe: "Can you create a business miracle on your own? Forget it, Mr. Zou. You can't just use an algorithm to collect money from netizens. Google won't directly generate profits with this algorithm, but it is indeed very useful in the hands of giants like this."
Zou Tianyan: "Then sell it to Gu Gou?"
Xu Zhe: "Teacher Zou, please don't be anxious. I just said that we can sell it, but not necessarily to Gu Gou, and not necessarily at a price of 10 million Mi Yuan."
Zou Tianyan: "But they are the only ones who offer such a high price..."
Xu Zhe: "Hold an auction, and then bid against each other, and the one with the highest bid will win. This way, the price will definitely go up."
Zou Tianyan: "Won't this anger them?"
Xu Zhe: "They are all savvy people in the business field. They know how to act rationally. If just holding an auction can anger them, it only shows that their level as investors is too low."
Zou Tianyan: "But I don't think I've ever heard of any startup doing this when it was acquired."
Xu Zhe: “Because other startups are not as popular as ours.”
Zou Tianyan was silent for a while, then said, "Let me think about it again, think about it again..."
Xu Zhe: "How about I go over and talk to you?"
Zou Tianyan: "No, that's not necessary, I'll just think about it. What you said makes sense, but I think I need to think about it again."
"Okay, Mr. Zou, you take your time to think about it. I'll go to class first."
After saying that, Xu Zhe hung up the phone, but did not actually go back to class.
On the contrary, he took out his cell phone and made another call, looking for Yao Hao.
"Hey, I have something to ask you. Buy a plane ticket to Shanghai first. I'll give you Mr. Zou Tianyan's contact information. Bring the auction case materials and the plan to show it to him in person and convince him."
Yao Hao asked, "The information is ready and you have read it, but I haven't finished writing the plan yet, and you haven't reviewed it yet."
Xu Zhe: "Buy the plane ticket first. Then work as fast as you can and finish it for me as soon as possible."
Yao Hao: "Are you sure you want me to persuade him? I don't even know Mr. Zou..."
Xu Zhe interrupted, "You are more suitable than me. I am still too young, and I don't look professional enough to him. You are different. You can act like a business elite, and you can also use your education and background to back you up. You are more persuasive in this kind of business merger and acquisition."
Yao Hao: "I understand, Mr. Xu, thank you for your trust."
Xu Zhe: "Teacher Zou is not resolute enough and is easily shaken. So, no matter what method you use, get the auction plan into his head."
Yao Hao: "I will do my best."
Xu Zhe: "Oh, by the way, you might just go there during the weekend."
Yao Hao's tone was a little strange: "Any questions about the weekend?"
Xu Zhe considered himself a kind boss, so he would of course say in advance: "There are subsidies for overtime and business trips."
Yao Hao laughed and said, "We can talk about this kind of trivial matter later when we have time. Mr. Xu, don't worry, I will definitely get it done."
After hanging up the phone with his subordinates, Xu Zhe took a step back, his back touching the outer wall of the teaching building. He leaned against the wall, raised his head and squinted.
The sunlight shines on your face, making it hard to open your eyes.
Xu Zhe stood there in the sun with his hands in his school uniform pockets. The recent busyness, especially the uncertainty about the future, made him feel more and more stressed.
If everything goes well, I can go from being worth tens of millions to hundreds of millions, as long as things go as expected... But what if it doesn't go well? What if something goes wrong?
Unlike before, Xu Zhe now really has a lot, and more and more people are involved. There are already 20 to 30 regular employees. Although the number of employees under his command is almost the smallest among companies with the same revenue scale, Xu Zhe has never tried to lead so many people in his life experience.
Especially the recent artificial intelligence project, the Eureka company, which not only gave him hope of quickly achieving the 100 million yuan goal, but also brought him unpredictable pressure...
But at this moment, leaning against the wall and basking in the sun, he felt lazily and had a long-lost sense of relaxation.
Just then, the cell phone rang again, but Xu Zhe didn't want to answer it.
Ten seconds later, the ringing was still going on, and he figured if it was something urgent he really had to answer it, so he pulled out his phone. However, the caller ID surprised him.
The person who called this time was not his subordinates in the company, nor a partner, nor the girls who should be in class, but his grandfather.
When he answered the call, he heard the voice of the old man who looked old but had a calm demeanor: "Hello, Xu Zhe, I heard from your dad that you are very busy recently?"
Xu Zhe: "It's true that I'm a bit busy..."
Grandpa: "Are you free to come over for dinner? You haven't been here for a while, and your grandma still misses you."
Xu Zhe: "Uh, this weekend? If it's just a lunch, it should be okay."
Grandpa: "I heard you're making some kind of game now, you're making money, right? Let me tell you in advance, you just need to bring a mouth to feed me, don't bring anything else, or I'll get mad at you!"
Hearing this, Xu Zhe couldn't help but smile bitterly. He was actually thinking about what he should buy to meet his grandparents. Should he buy something expensive and classy...
Grandpa continued, "The weather has been getting warmer recently, and the fish in the water have started to jump around. I'll catch a big one and bring it back for you to taste."
Then Xu Zhe couldn't help but let out a "puff".
Grandpa was immediately displeased: "What are you laughing at? I only bought it that one time, and you just happened to catch it. Usually, you don't know how many fish I caught, one after another!"
Xu Zhe suppressed his laughter and said, "Okay, no problem, Grandpa, if you dare to say it, I dare to believe it."
Grandpa: "What are you talking about? You don't need to believe it, it's true! If you have time to come with me, I will show you what a fishing master is..."
These words suddenly broadened Xu Zhe's thinking.
He subconsciously said, "Then take me with you next time you go fishing."
Grandpa: "Aren't you very busy? You have to study and pursue your career."
Xu Zhe: "Then let's go next Sunday. I'll go over early in the morning to watch you fishing, fish for the whole morning, and then take the fish back to cook. Since I give you a whole morning, you can at least catch one fish, right?"
Grandpa: "What are you talking about! Do you believe that I can make a whole fish feast?"

334. Chapter 332 331 What is a fishing master
334.
On Sunday morning, Xu Zhe thought he didn't get up late, but his grandfather still gave him a lecture on the phone.
It was only eight o'clock in the morning when we arrived at the river.
But he found that there were already several fishermen sitting on the river bank, and they were all middle-aged and elderly men. Among these people, his grandfather was probably only slightly above average in age.
Grandpa was sitting on the grass by the river, with a small stool under his buttocks. His old but rather sharp eyes were staring at the water, as if he was waiting for something at any time.
Xu Zhe squatted beside him and patted the old man on the shoulder.
Grandpa made a gesture to silence the fish: "Shh, don't scare the fish away."
Xu Zhe: "I just said a few words on the shore, it shouldn't be that serious, right?"
Grandpa lowered his voice and said, "What do you know? This fish is very clever. Any movement on the shore can be transmitted to the water. Keep your voice down."
So Xu Zhe also lowered his voice: "Okay, old man, did you catch anything today?"
After saying this, he lifted the lid of the bucket next to him and took a look. Suddenly, he realized that the question he asked was not appropriate. There was only clear water in the bucket, and there was no sign of a fish.
Grandpa was quite confident: "It's still early, just wait and see!"
So Xu Zhe squatted beside and waited for a long time, until his legs were numb, then he stood up and waited for a long time. But Grandpa's fishing float never moved, just slightly rising and falling with the ripples on the water.
But several other experienced anglers around had already made some gains. One of them even caught a large one, which attracted the envious gazes of his friends.
There is still no movement from grandpa.
The old man suddenly muttered in a low voice: "Is there something wrong with the bait... No, it was exactly the same last time, and I clearly caught it."
Xu Zhe: "I think the guy's equipment is quite professional, and he even got a net."
Grandpa: "That's called a fish guard. I don't need to do that."
Xu Zhe: "What is the fish guard used for?"
Grandpa: "It's for storing fish. You put the fish you catch in the fish basket to prevent them from running away."
Xu Zhe: "Then why don't you need it...Oh, it's okay."
Why didn't Grandpa buy a fish basket, but brought a bucket from home? Is it because the fish he caught didn't need a fish basket at all, and only needed a bucket filled with some water?
Of course, there is no need to bring up this kind of issue again to hurt the elderly.
The grandfather glared at his grandson, but didn't feel like scolding him anymore. He just couldn't help but pulled up the fishing rod again to look at the hook, changed the bait again, and threw it in again.
At this time, Xu Zhe's cell phone rang.
In an instant, not only the grandfather next to him, but also the other two veteran anglers a little further away, looked at this ignorant young man.
Xu Zhe quickly turned off the ringtone, walked away, and then answered the call.
This time it was Shen Lan who called. She asked, "What plans do you have for today?"
Xu Zhe: "Look at my grandparents."
Shen Lan: “Ah?”
Xu Zhe: "Actually, to be precise, it was to see my grandfather. He always said he was a master at fishing, so he brought me here to see the world."
Shen Lan: "Have you seen the world?"
Xu Zhe: "I guess so. Anyway, I got to see the Air Force. Let's not talk about this. Do you have anything to talk to me about?"
"It's not a big deal..." The girl sighed, "Actually, I've been trying to recruit people recently, but none of the people I've recruited are good enough for me. There's no sign of a new game, and the old games need to be updated from time to time with new things. And I'm not like you who was directly recommended. I have to take the college entrance examination after all, and I'm still practicing questions recently."
Xu Zhe suddenly realized, "I see. You feel a little tired and came to me to complain."
Shen Lan: "I don't have the habit of complaining. I just want to ask you if you have time to play billiards. I haven't played billiards for a long time."
Xu Zhe: "You want to vent your emotions on me... that's fine, but I have to go fishing with my grandfather in the morning and have lunch at noon, so I guess I won't be free until the afternoon."
The girl on the other end of the phone was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly asked, "Where are you fishing? Can I go and see?"
Xu Zhe was stunned: "You want to see my grandfather?"
Shen Lan: "I'm not going to see your grandfather, I'm going to see you. Your grandfather is busy fishing and he can't leave. Just say you're bored and want to take a walk, then you can see me."
Xu Zhe: "Then what? What about lunch?"
Shen Lan smiled and said, "It's very simple. I'll just eat something outside, and you can have lunch with your grandfather and the others. After you finish eating, I'll drive to pick you up."
The girl's arrangement left Xu Zhe with no reason to refuse.
But he still asked one more question: "Are you afraid to see my grandparents?"
Shen Lan was silent for a moment, then sighed: "I'm not used to that kind of occasion. Maybe it's because I've been...well, I don't have much contact with this kind of people since I was a child. I rarely see my own relatives."
Xu Zhe: "I see. I'll send you the address later and you can just follow it."
