After finishing his egg bread, Masayoshi Kishimoto finished eating, paid, he got up and walked out of the shop. He was too full, so he felt his abdomen was a little swollen. At that time, Masayoshi Kishimoto was sitting still. Now, he stood up and walked, and felt very obvious.

Masayoshi Kishimoto walked into the main entrance of the headquarters building of the Hard Gold Group. Whatever greeted him was the front desk lady who stood up and bowed respectfully forty-five degrees, as well as the forty-five degrees of bows from other subordinates.

As soon as the elevator door opened, if he was humble and didn't walk in, no one would take the initiative to walk there. So he was basically alone and was riding up and down the elevator of his company.

As soon as Kishimoto Masayoshi appears in the president's office, Yamada Miyasu, as the secretary-general, will take the initiative to deliver a cup of freshly ground coffee. She knows that this is a habit of the president.

Because Kishimoto Masayoshi was too full in the morning, he didn't pick up the coffee and drink it like he used to. After he finished drinking, he started working again.

At half past nine, Yamada Miyaki appeared in front of him again and said, "The Chinese guests have arrived. They are waiting for you in the small conference room."

Masayoshi Kishimoto temporarily put down his work, stood up and walked outward, heading towards the small conference room on this floor. Yamada Miyasu followed closely behind.

The appearance of Masayoshi Kishimoto made everyone stand up. He walked to the center reserved by his side and sat down. Then, everyone sat down one after another.

The person that Kishimoto Masayoshi is facing is still unknown at present. In the future, he will become famous among the Internet companies in mainland China.

A in BAT was first taken down by him. Now, the person who met with his business is represented by B, which is the founder of Baidu, Robin Li.

Masayoshi Kishimoto is not a novice in investing in search engines. A few years ago, he went to Stanford University in San Francisco to make a angel investment of Larry Page and Sergey Brin, who studied for a PhD in computer-related major.

Subsequently, under his personal instruction, Kiyoshi Kobayashi, who also serves as the head of the San Francisco office, invested in the officially established Google Company in the B and C rounds. So far, Hard Gold Group still maintains a 40% stake in Google and is its largest shareholder.

Masayoshi Kishimoto knew in his previous life that for quite some time when Baidu was established in 2000, its search engine was basically a decoration. Even if it wanted to search for a popular game guide, it would not have any reaction at all.

In his opinion, no matter how Baidu claims to have independent intellectual property rights, the fact that it never leaves its roots is more or less imitating Google.

In the present, an investment in it is a high return decision. Baidu will inevitably become the second largest search engine company in the world after Google and the largest Chinese search engine company.

On the one hand, Masayoshi Kishimoto listened carefully to Robin Li in fluent American English to explain Baidu's business model in front of him. On the other hand, he thought in his mind that Hard Gold Group currently does not have an office in Beijing.

Once he decides to invest in Baidu, he will build a new office in Beijing. This will also be his first stronghold to cross the north of the Yangtze River.

Masayoshi Kishimoto waited patiently until Robin Li finished speaking, and said in American English without any haste: "I understand everything you mean."

In terms of investing in search engines, this is not the first time our Hard Gold Group has invested in search engines. In terms of search engines, I have not only invested in Google, but also invested in Yahoo. At present, our Hard Gold Group is still the largest shareholder of these two companies.

I can tell you here that even the Hard Gold Group has invested in Guangzhou NetEase, China, has been thinking about becoming bigger and stronger in this field. China, a country with the largest population in the world, has the largest population in the world.

With such a population base, Manulife is here, there is no need to worry about no good returns. For your company, I can make an investment."

Li Yanhong really didn't expect to get the favor of the other party when he first met. Although he came with hope, he was mentally prepared to be rejected. At the same time, he certainly understood what it means to have no free lunch in the world.

Masayoshi Kishimoto believes that the reason why the other party brought core team members to seek an investment is mostly because his series of investment operations in mainland China has attracted strong attention from relevant Internet companies.

He first raised one of his right index fingers, then raised three fingers and said, "I am a straightforward and enjoyable person. Ten million US dollars, accounting for 40% of the shares."

"As far as I know, you invested in Alibaba in Hangzhou for $20 million and Shanda Network in Shanghai for $40 million. Why did you only have 10 million dollars left when I got here?

I can't accept your condition." Li Yanhong felt that the other party was suspected of despising his company.

"At present, you are not the only one company that has search engines in mainland China. There are so many. Even my hands can't count them." Masayoshi Kishimoto stretched out his hands and said with ten fingers.

"Our Baidu company is completely different from them. We have great potential and will lead the trend and revolution of the Internet." Li Yanhong said bluntly.

"The founders of the Internet companies I want to invest in almost like you said that if you change the soup or not, the problem is that no one knows what the result is before things are done?

Of course, whether it is an ideal or a dream, this is a very good thing for a young man. Why do you need to pursue a dream and make a decision about success or failure?

The name of your company is nothing more than a sentence from Xin Qiji's "Qingyu Case? Yuanxi", and he is searching for him thousands of times in the crowd." Kishimoto Masayoshi said calmly.

Li Yanhong was immediately surprised. He would never have thought that the Japanese investor in front of him would have such a profound understanding of Chinese poetry culture.

The reason why he didn't think it was told by the other party's subordinates was that his company was still like a small grain of sand in the vast ocean and would not be noticed.

This speculation is not completely unfounded. Before Masayoshi Kishimoto came, he and the members of his core team clearly felt what it means to "shop big bullying customers".

Even if others don’t speak up, you can personally feel the condescending and arrogant attitude of a large multinational company. It is not ruled out that others have seen too many of them.

Although there is a possibility of high returns in investment, there are also huge risks. The considerable possibility is to lose money.
