Seeing Valen leaving the bank, Li Zhiwen quickly asked Cao Wenyu to take him and Chung Chuhong to a cafe near the bank to meet Larry Ellison.

At this time, Li Zhiwen's bodyguard was sitting there waiting with Larry Elison. Larry Elison was in a bad mood. Anyone who was rejected for funds was brought here by this group of people would be in a good mood. If the place he was brought to was a cafe instead of a small house, Alrry Elison would have been yelling.

"Hello, Mr. Larry Ellison." Li Zhiwen walked over and said to Larry Ellison.

"Oh, sir, your bodyguard is so rude. Why did you force me to come here? I have something else. If you have nothing to do, I will leave." Larry Elison said. He didn't think an Asian would understand his products, nor did he want to introduce his products to these Asians. Although this young man looked very rich, in Larry Elison's eyes, Asia was backward and ignorant, and they didn't understand high technology at all.

"Mr. Ellison, I will introduce myself first. My name is Li Zhiwen, a Hong Konger. First of all, I apologize to you for my bodyguard's behavior. They have disturbed you. Secondly, you might as well introduce your products. Maybe I will give you millions of dollars to invest in you with kindness. Of course, you can leave if you don't need to invest." Li Zhiwen said with a smile.

"Sir, I'm afraid you won't invest in my project, nor will you understand my project," said Larry Elison.

"Lisen, just now, Valen and I signed up for a transfer of 10 million US dollars, and this amount was my investment in a company called Apple. Your company must be in Silicon Valley. You must have heard of Apple's name and have some understanding." Li Zhiwen said with an unhappy expression. Anyone who is underestimated can have a good face. If it weren't for the fact that Oracle did have the need to invest, Li Zhiwen would have left.

Larry Elison knew the name of Apple. Last year, Apple launched its own personal computer and saw Apple's products at the first West Coast Computer Exhibition. It was an epoch-making product. In Larry Elison's opinion, his products are not worse than Apple. Although Apple makes hardware equipment and databases, since Apple can obtain the funds of this gentleman, why can't it be? So he decided to give it a try and started talking about it himself.

"Our company is called a relational software company, which mainly does relational databases... We integrate a complete SQL implementation, including subqueries, connections and other features... Believe me, sir, this is a great company, a great masterpiece, it only takes a little money to achieve it." Elison said.

When Li Zhiwen heard the name of this company, he knew that he had asked Cao Wenyu to find him. This is a great company, a large Internet company worth hundreds of billions of dollars, and he picked up gold mines by himself.

You may not have heard of a relational software company, but you must have heard of another company name, that is Oracle.

Oracle was originally named Oracle. In 1978, Elison moved Oracle to Silicon Valley and renamed it "Relational Software Company". Later, in 1982, he changed his name to Oracle again.

Li Zhiwen knew this name because he liked watching the NBA in his previous life, and the Golden State Warriors' stadium was called Oracle Arena.

At that time, Li Zhiwen was very puzzled. What is the company called Oracle? Could it be that ancient Chinese characters have been spread to the United States?

You should know that many NBA stadiums are sponsored by some large companies. Is there any company called Oracle? So I checked it online and found out that Oracle Company is.

Li Zhiwen was very excited. He only put Microsoft and Apple in mind during his trip to the United States. As for Oracle, because his business is not very popular, he forgot it. As a result, he found out in this way. He had to say that he was lucky.

Li Zhiwen suppressed his excitement and frowned and said calmly: "Mr. Elison, I think your product has no market and will not have any commercial value. It is impossible to meet large-scale data or large-scale users to store data. The speed is too slow."

"I remember IBM published similar articles a few years ago, but why didn't IBM do this?"

Elison was a little disappointed, he knew the result, and Valentine had said similar things before.

"However, I can try it out. I don't care much about millions of dollars anyway." Li Zhiwen said indifferently.

"Thank you, sir, don't worry, your investment will be rewarded dozens of times." Elison said excitedly.

"Don't thank me. Although I don't care much about this little money, I can hold a lot of shares in Shangyanshang." Li Zhiwen said.

"Sir, it only costs $2 million, and I can sell 20% of the shares," said Elison.

Li Zhiwen looked a little ugly and said angrily: "Erison, do you think I am a pig? Just now you told Valentine that $2 million can hold 30% of the shares, but now it can only account for 20%. Do you think I am a sucker?"

"No, it's not like this. Financing depends not only on the funds, but also on the connections he can mobilize. Sequoia Capital, which Valen set up, is already very famous in the industry, and sir, your company is not famous yet, and it may even be said that there is no company yet." Elison explained.

Li Zhiwen couldn't help but feel a little discouraged. It seems that the plan to open a venture capital company in Silicon Valley must be put on the agenda. Otherwise, even if he has money, he may not be able to invest in a company. If he invests in a company, he cannot get the most shares at the lowest cost.

Now that I open a company, I can gain fame in Silicon Valley through Apple and Oracle, and attract companies to find themselves to invest.

"No, Erison, Valentine doesn't have the idea of ​​investing in your company, but I still have the idea of ​​trying it out. You will hurt me like this. In this way, I invested 5 million US dollars and held 50% of the shares, so I can accept it." Li Zhiwen said.

"Impossible, sir, I cannot give up control of the company." Elison retorted.

"Erison, I'm not interested in controlling your company. I just want to fight for this." Li Zhiwen said.

Not to mention Li Zhiwen’s oracle bone script, if Li Zhiwen took control of Oracle, the first customer of Oracle, the CIA would not have bought software for it. After all, the United States is a country that “respected freedom”.

"Sir, I don't need that much money, I only need $2 million," said Elison.

"But I won't accept that US$2 million is only 20% of the shares." Li Zhiwen shook his head.

......

The two of them had a long time of verbal battle. In the end, Li Zhiwen paid US$3 million to get 30% of the shares, but enjoyed the lead investment rights.

Leading investment rights is what Li Zhiwen most likes, otherwise, Li Zhiwen's 30% stake will sooner or later be diluted too much.

Afterwards, the two signed the contract signed by Zhai Zuchang. Li Zhiwen said to Larry Ellison: "Mr. Ellison, don't you think the name of a relationship software company is too difficult to pronounce?"

"Is there any, I think it's okay?" said Larry Ellison.

"It's really difficult to talk about, and it's not attractive," said Li Zhiwen.

"Actually, our company was not called this, it was Oracle. It was just that I think this name can better understand our company's business, so it was changed to this." Larry Ellison said.

"Oracle bone script, this name is much better than your current name. Larry, I suggest you change it back to your original name." Li Zhiwen said.

Ellison thought he wouldn't miss Li Zhiwen's intentions. After all, he was his own financial supporter's father, so he said, "Mr. Li, I'll change it when I go back."

"Then congratulations on your successful name change." Li Zhiwen said

Afterwards, Li Zhiwen transferred $3 million from the bank to him and returned to the hotel.

In the taxi, Li Zhiwen lamented that this trip to the United States was too smooth, and only Microsoft was left.

However, Microsoft does not have IBM's support at this time, so it is not difficult to invest in Microsoft, it is just a matter of how much shares it has.

"Brother Wen, you came to the United States to invest in companies? What's special about these companies?" Zhong Chuhong asked strangely.

"No, I just came to the United States to do some things. We will have to transfer to the UK in two days. Then I will take you to have fun."

"And for these two companies, I am optimistic about their future." Li Zhiwen said.
