Chapter 74: The Mysterious Rich Man
Four hundred million US dollars was rejected!
Qian Yayan felt her legs were a little weak, and her arms around Wang Yi were almost hanging on them.
When she made the decision before, she was sure of Wang Yi's ability.
But the speed of this rise is too fast!
Also, he looked so handsome when he rejected the offer!
Wang Yi didn’t know what Qian Yayan was thinking about, he just made a simple assessment.
"Oh, you have a really strong mentality, as expected of a mathematician. When I was your age, I couldn't remain calm when I heard 400 million US dollars."
Ball did not show any anger because of Wang Yi's refusal, but instead made a joke.
Their conversation has actually been attracting a lot of attention, and people nearby can even hear the offer of 400 million.
Even though this is the alumni association of the University of Pennsylvania, and even though there are many wealthy people here, the fact that a cash transaction of $400 million was so casual is still enough to attract attention!
Many wealthy people who are wealthy enough do not actually have much cash on hand.
For example, a man with a broad upper body frame noticed this.
After Bauer and Wang Yi parted politely, he also walked over with a glass of wine in hand.
"Amazing oriental mathematician, your female companion is so beautiful."
Wang Yi took a look at the man and recognized him from his information: Masla, an outstanding graduate of the University of Pennsylvania. Although he was only in his early forties, he already owned two very famous companies.
One is SX space exploration company, and the other is SX electric car.
However, he has not had a good time recently. Both companies have encountered various troubles, especially the SX electric car, which almost went bankrupt and was sold to a certain song.
"I think she will be very happy to hear your compliments, Mr. Masra ."
Wang Yi clinked glasses with the other party, which surprised Masla a little. He didn't expect that this Oriental man could recognize him at a glance.
"It's my honor that Professor Wang knows me. I went to your exchange meeting today and the speech was very good."
Masla smiled, although he didn't understand either. After a pause, he told the purpose of his visit.
"I heard Mr. Bauer talk about 400 million US dollars before? I wonder if the professor has ever thought about making any investments?"
Masla was currently using many of SX Auto's patents as collateral to take out a lot of loans to meet his urgent needs. However, cash flow was very important to him now. He had always disliked wasting time, and this time he came to the alumni association specifically to get some investment.
Whether it's Mr. Fitt, Mr. Ball, or other alumni, anyone who can provide help is welcome!
It’s a pity that because his current condition is very bad and he has also mortgaged his patent for a loan, the people he contacted are not willing to take the risk for the time being and want to wait and see.
In fact, there are quite a few people who are optimistic about him, but now that he has run into trouble, maybe the conditions will be better if he waits and sees.
He had previously tried to sell SX Automotive to a certain company for $11 billion but failed.
"Oh, then Mr. Masla may not have heard clearly. I rejected Mr. Bauer's offer."
"The professor's refusal shows his confidence. Someone with such a smart mind must have other ideas."
Masla did not give up or show any other attitude because of Wang Yi's words.
"In fact, I have a good connection with your Dongfang. I went there a while ago and had a great chat with Mr. Lin from your Mu Group. Mr. Jack from Ahri was also very interesting..."
Masra changed the subject and started talking about other aspects.
The East is the breakthrough point and huge market he is aiming for. Regardless of whether he can attract this person's investment, it will never go a wrong to have one more friend there!
Moreover, these young professors who come here to exchange ideas from top universities have enough influence in themselves.
You won’t lose money either way.
Masla behaved quite modestly, and the same was true when he recently communicated with Mr. Lin, the second-generation leader of the Mu Group. The Mu Group, which was in its heyday, mercilessly ridiculed some of Masla's ideas and informed them of the sales and popularity of Mu computers.
Now Masla was also low-key chatting with Wang Yi about family matters, saying that he liked the Eastern country very much and was really adaptable.
Wang Yi didn't mind chatting with this boss who had a mind in every pore. At least when he was chatting with him, no one else would disturb him.
Wang Yi even considered the situation of SX Space Exploration and SX Automobile Company.
However, sooner or later I will enter this field and become a competitor. Although I have potential, I'd better forget it.
Then Masla seemed to see someone and said
"Oh, professor, there is a very interesting friend over there. Maybe you will be interested in him. I asked him for some investment before. He is a Chinese."
Wang Yi then followed Masla's gaze and saw a figure wearing round-frame glasses and smiling like Maitreya Buddha.
Masla's words should have also attracted the man's attention. He turned around and walked over with a smile, holding a wine glass, and glanced at Qian Yayan from time to time.
"Liu, come and meet the great mathematician, the smartest of the small group."
Masla smiled and raised his hand to greet the fat man who looked like Maitreya Buddha. This was the God of Wealth that he had pulled over, so he couldn't neglect him.
"I've wanted to meet you for a long time, Professor Wang. You really bring honor to us Chinese. My name is Liu Te, and my ancestral home is Hujian."
"Hello."
Wang Yi nodded with a smile. He could see that the fat man was very confident, and judging from his age, he was probably around thirty years old.
At this age, being able to invest in SX cars and even having Masra look at him differently, he can definitely be considered a young and promising person...
Buzz~
Suddenly, Wang Yi's earphones vibrated. It was obvious that Lin Shiqin had something to say to him. The slightly improved earphones he had made were enough to prevent the sound from leaking out, so Wang Yi connected with Lin Shiqin while greeting her.
"There's something wrong with this fat guy."
Lin Shiqin had obviously been observing secretly, but she didn't contact him actively before, including when Bauer came. But when this fat man came, she did this, which still surprised Wang Yi.
"what is the problem?"
"He is one of the people I have been paying attention to recently. His father is just the president of a chamber of commerce in Johor, Southeast Asia. The gap between his financial strength and his is too big."
After hearing this, Wang Yi continued chatting on the surface while casually nodding to signal Lin Shiqin to continue.
"According to his current spending estimates, he is worth at least several billion US dollars, and has a large amount of liquid funds..."
These words made Wang Yi pause for a moment, and then he looked at Liu Te again.
Thirty years old, with billions of dollars in wealth?
In the future, a certain company will be acquired for 44 billion, and this year Masla wants to sell SX Automotive Company to a certain company for an expected 11 billion!
This shows the horror of billions of US dollars. If he was a top second-generation, it would be understandable, but his father was just an ordinary chamber of commerce president, and his wealth was only relative to ordinary people, but he himself controlled so much?
