Jiang Yizhou, who suddenly felt enlightened yet somewhat lost, sent Song Rushi off on her flight back home and continued his work in solitude. 0
 
After Song Rushi left, he urgently brought in a slightly disheartened executive from Netscape, John Wilford. Jiang Yizhou did not know much about historical management talents; most of what he understood was about the leaders of well-known Internet companies and venture capitalists. 0
 
Xu Xin and Bill Green decided to join because of his understanding. 0
 
John Wilford also demonstrated his capabilities, proving to be significantly stronger than Song Rushi. He had been in charge of sales and promotion at Netscape, and after joining Ailumese, he quickly proposed revisions for the blog and Mailbox, organizing suitable promotional actions that finally made Ailumese no longer seem like a makeshift operation. 0
 
However, what concerned Jiang Yizhou more was his name. He thought of a man who would often empty his wallet in the future; it seemed that the company was called Verwolf Software, and their first software had not yet been launched. 0
 
He was eager to try investing in this company, which would indeed be a delightful thing, ideally securing a permanent free account on sbea. 0
 
Jiang Yizhou was already gathering information about Verwolf Software and analyzing the possibilities of investment and profitability. Well, this company had not yet produced its first product, so Bill Green could only regard it as the boss's personal hobby. It was estimated that investing wouldn't cost much. 0
 
Currently, Google had expanded to fifteen people, and Susan Wojcicki's garage could no longer accommodate this rapidly growing organization. Therefore, Jiang Yizhou funded the rental of a two-story house, transforming it into a suitable office space. 0
 
Consequently, Jiang Yizhou successfully mingled with the founders as a major investor and co-founder. He personally invested a portion while Ailumese submitted patent applications for bidding ranking technology and display advertising technology, along with equity investment. 0
 
Patent applications take one year even in the United States, assuming everything goes smoothly. However, Ailumese was indeed progressing smoothly through the patent application process while simultaneously registering patents domestically to prevent patent disputes. 0
 
Jiang Yizhou's personal stake combined with Ailumese's equity amounted to 8%, totaling an investment of 1.5 million dollars along with corresponding technology. This made Larry Page and Sergey Brin stop mentioning selling the search engine for one million dollars. 0
 
It was a joke; investors had already put in so much money just to keep things going. How could they think about selling? The two originally planned to sell for some quick cash to complete their studies and research but found those thoughts evaporating due to Jiang Yizhou's substantial investment, which left them in a difficult position. 0
 
However, his significant investment also greatly accelerated the development process of the Google search engine. So far, with the efforts of the rapidly expanding Google staff, it was expected to officially launch in October 1997, significantly ahead of the original requirement to go live by Christmas. 0
 
 
Driving his familiar vehicle, Jiang Yizhou entered the headquarters of Xenogeny located in Menlo Park, a two-story house. After parking, he led his new assistant, Susan Meyer, into the building. 0
 
Shen Qing, as a straightforward girl, suited him well. At least in front of her, Jiang Yizhou's more sordid thoughts were laid bare, allowing him to monitor himself effectively. Now that she was in charge of the assistant's office and he had recruited another assistant with the same standard as Shen Qing—equally cool and diligent. 0
 
Upon opening the door, he was greeted by several employees casually sprawled over desks and lying on the sofa, including Larry Page and Sergey Brin. 0
 
"Susan Meyer, please help tidy up a bit!" Jiang Yizhou said helplessly. The place was such a mess that there was hardly any space to step. A group of tech geeks had no particular standards. 0
 
He woke each sleeping person one by one; for Jiang Yizhou, this was quite normal. He had once worked tirelessly for an entire month for Qi. 0
 
"Oh, Tony, you're here! Sorry, I'll clean up right away!" Craig said. He was the first employee recruited by the two founders. 0
 
"It's fine, but you guys don't need to work so hard," Jiang Yizhou joked. "I think we could go to Walmart and buy a few folding beds so you don't have to sleep on the floor!" 0
 
Craig shrugged. "That's a good suggestion; I'll consider it." 0
 
"Hey, Tony! You're here! I have some ideas I'd like to discuss with you!" Larry Page greeted Jiang Yizhou while yawning. 0
 
... 0
 
Sitting in the private room, Jiang Xiaoya looked displeased at Jiang Qingyu, the woman she found repugnant, even though she knew she had saved her. 0
 
However, she still felt that if it weren't for Jiang Qingyu going out, none of this would have happened. It was only because of her cowardice and desire to cling to her that they had reached this point. 0
 
 
Recalling Jiang Qingyu crying to her mother, worried about Zhao Qiang and the retaliation from his friends and family, since it was merely a premeditated kidnapping, and illegal detention had only just reached the threshold of criminal standards. 0
 
That Su Guowei, Director Su, said that Zhao Qiang would at most get four or five years. With connections, he might even get a reduced sentence, but of course, there were bigger connections ensuring he wouldn't get out. 0
 
The current rule of law is indeed somewhat chaotic; sometimes, during crackdowns, even touching a female colleague's backside could lead to sentencing, possibly even the death penalty. At other times, major issues could be trivialized, and one could be released after just over ten days. The legal system still has room for improvement, and internal corruption needs to be addressed. 0
 
Gao Qingzhen momentarily softened her heart and took her along. After all, the girl’s daughter was also working in the capital under her son. Bringing her along to find a job would be a way to repay some kindness. 0
 
Li Yue did not stay behind but instead had Lin Consultant coordinate with several staff members regarding the donation matters. Currently confirmed are Jiang Yizhou's hometown village's Cement Road, as well as the teaching buildings of the rural high school and County High School, all named “Zheng Yi” building. 0
 
This was also discussed with Jiang Yizhou. Although he had thick skin, it wasn't thick enough to use his own name. While Zheng Yi has a Taoist feel to it, since it has already been used, there was no need to deliberately avoid it. 0
 
“Yuejie, why did you have to make this trip? That man didn’t even give a word of praise; it’s not within his work scope, so why bother?” Mao Ya looked at Yuejie, who was still reading, feeling somewhat indignant. 0
 
“What are you talking about? What praise or lack thereof? I came here for the donation! I’m just helping him bring his family to the capital; what do you think I’m doing?” Li Yue closed her book and rubbed her eyes wearily. 0
 
Due to the insistence of their uncle and aunt, they chose to take the train. Jiang Yizhou's family of three and Jiang Qingyu were in the adjacent carriage while she and Mao Ya were in another carriage. 0
