Chapter 215 Bright Future 1 (1/2)

So Jake was sweating while talking on the phone, he had to take a deep breath not to show that he was nervous over the phone, he believed the first impression really was what it was like so he wanted to be confident over the phone to Jeff Bezos.

That's why he talked about how he had invested for many years in technology companies what was true and also how $ 30 million invested does not make a big company pay attention to the investor what was also true.

But with that, he indirectly showed Jeff that he had been an investor since the dawn of the internet age and also that he had over 30 million capital to invest, if Jake could he would actually lend and invest millions from Amazon.

But he knew that Jeff would never want to give Jake such a stake, so he believed he could just leave an impression of being a big investment for Jeff Bezos, all to increase Jeff's confidence in Jake.

And the reason was that he wanted to meet Jeff in person to discuss the details of the investment, and maybe if Jake didn't do it Jeff could scorn Jake a bit for being too young at their first meeting in person.

In order for this not to happen, Jake needed to show that he was a serious businessman before that, so he could even get more stock after a trade.

”I can consider that, but for that, we need to meet in person, what do you think about me going to Miami to talk to you better?”Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please clickfor visiting.

”I think that's very good, bring some detailed reports from your company and maybe we can close business on your trip here.”

”I hope so, see you soon.”

Jake was very happy and pleased with this first conversation so that he could talk more easily with Jeff in Miami and it would also be much easier to make a good impression on this meeting.

Jake decided to leave the details of when they could meet and also Jeff's reception for Emily to take care of, even though Jeff was in the future one of the richest men in the world, now he was just a businessman who was starting to develop the company.

So Jake would have to show that he was only interested in the company and not its owner, this business had to work out because Jake had so much advantage in this negotiation by knowing the future.

So in Jake's first week of class, he couldn't even focus much on class thinking about the upcoming meeting, Emily had talked to Jeff and he said he would come to Miami later this week.

So after a few days, they met at a restaurant in the hotel where Jeff was staying, Jeff was not surprised that Jake was young because Emily had accidentally talked about it while talking about how amazing it was that Jake was a young athlete and businessman.

Coincidentally Jeff had also seen a Jake commercial on television and some news about Jake winning the marathon, which made Jeff more willing to have Jake as an investor, after all, sports-related people generally have little interest in business matters.

So Jeff thought Jake just wanted to invest in order to make more money in the future, that's what Jeff wanted, an investor who just came in with the money and didn't interfere with the way he ran the business.

But that was very hard to find, usually, the more money one invests the more interested in giving one's opinion on the company's business, Jeff wanted to be the president of the company he created himself and would not accept anyone else for it.

”Hi Jake, it's nice to meet you, I saw you in a television commercial, amazing you're a famous athlete at your age.”

”I'm not famous yet, I'm just starting out, but you had to have a lot of courage to quit a good job at a big company in New York to start a company in Seattle.”

”I see you know something about me, I wanted to take this excellent opportunity to start my own company, as you said on the phone this is the best time for tech companies.”

”I really believe that, with the government's new project to encourage the development of the internet in a few years, more than half of the American population and the world will be able to connect with these start-up companies.”

”Everyone likes to read books, I particularly read in class, so I think your company has great growth potential, and if you want you can also expand to other products on the internet.”

”I also think like you, but I would like to know why you are interested in my company and not others that are also being created now?”

”I'm interested in these companies too, I've been investing in Cisco for over three years ago and I've made a lot of money out of it, I also have a stake in a company that makes digital cameras, so I've always been looking for something that could give me more money in the future.”
