My Age of Investment

"Daren, thank you so much for telling me so much."

Straubel suddenly raised his head and said these words with sincerity in his eyes.

Xia Jingxing had a bad feeling in his heart, don't say "but"!

"but……"

Straubel pulled out his phone and said with a smile, "But, I have to call Elon and say sorry to him."

Xia Jingxing quickly understood the other party's intention, which was to call Musk in front of him.

Emotionally intelligent behavior!

Said that he cut off the back road and followed Tesla with all his heart.

It is estimated that there is still some meaning to repair the relationship. After all, he has just rejected the retention of the two founders of Eberhard and Tarpenning.

"Okay, hit it!"

Xia Jingxing raised his hand and said with a smile.

Straubel dialed the phone, turned on the amplifier, and a male voice came from the other end of the phone, with a bit of joy in his tone:

"Straubel, have you completed your resignation procedures? Did the Tesla people stop you? Do you need a lawyer for you?"

Xia Jingxing smiled and said nothing, Musk had arranged all the lawyers, for fear that he would not let anyone on his side, this hoe was cruel enough.

"Forehead……"

Hearing Musk's sincere remarks, Straubel also had a headache and felt even more ashamed.

With a long tail tone, he didn't say a word for a long time.

"Straubel, what's the matter with you? Are you feeling unwell? I have a private family doctor, should I ask him to see you?"

Xia Jingxing held back his laughter and turned his head aside, not wanting to put pressure on Straubel.

But Straubel misunderstood this "turning head" action, thinking that the boss was a little dissatisfied.

Thinking that he had already made a decision, he no longer struggled, and said lightly:

"I'm very sorry, Mr. Musk, I still decided to stay at Tesla, and I can only thank you for your kindness."

On the other end of the phone, Musk thought he had heard it wrong. After a while, he asked, "Are you dissatisfied with the salary and equity offered by Nikola? In fact, these are all negotiable.

As long as you work hard in Nikolai and achieve results, I will not be stingy with rewards. "

"No, after some consideration, I think Tesla is more suitable for me!"

Straubel's eyes were firm, Xia Jingxing chatted with him for a long time, and the career blueprints and prospects he described deeply attracted him.

Compared to Tesla, Nikola is less attractive to him.

Xia Jingxing and the two founders are retaining him, an employee who has only joined the company for two months, indicating that Tesla still attaches great importance to him.

Moreover, Xia Jingxing also gave him so many promises.

"Tesla is better for you?"

Musk laughed angrily, "Are you sure? You are at Tesla, just an employee, an underappreciated employee.

Come to Nicholas,

I put you as a co-founder and in charge of all technical development. "

"Mr. Musk, you don't have to persuade me. I've made up my mind. I'm very sorry."

Musk was almost pissed.

He gave such good conditions, but he couldn't poach an ordinary Tesla employee.

This made him feel a very strong sense of frustration. Is Nikolai so bad?

Immediately he thought, could it be that Straubel was threatened? Forced to reject Nikolai's.

Thinking of this, he eased his tone and asked, "Straubel, if you are threatened, please tell me, and I will help you settle it."

Straubel glanced at Xia Jingxing and smiled bitterly: "Really not, that's it, Mr. Musk."

After that, Straubel was about to hang up.

"and many more!"

Musk hurriedly shouted.

"Anything else?"

Musk asked calmly: "I want to ask, why do you stay at Tesla, where is Nikola inferior to them?"

Straubel glanced at Xia Jingxing, who nodded and smiled at him, motioning him to speak casually.

"Plan for the future!"

In a short sentence, Musk's arrogant heart was shattered, and he murmured on the phone: "Planning for the future?"

I am not weaker than others in my life, but some people say that my plan for the future of Nikola Motors is not good?

"You should know that I also have an aerospace company called SpaceX?"

Musk was not convinced, and moved the little rocket out, ready to find the place.

"SpaceX does have a big vision, but when it comes to cars, you don't plan as much for Nikola as Darren."

Musk sneered, "Daren, that Chinese, would I be inferior to him?"

Straubel glanced at Xia Jingxing and continued to show his loyalty: "Yes, you are not as good as him."

Hearing this sentence, Musk's temper suddenly broke out, and he said on the phone that Nikola would definitely defeat Tesla, and he would also acquire Tesla, so that the brand would disappear completely.

From time to time, a few swear words are hurled, not necessarily directed at Straubel, but may also be aimed at Xia Jingxing.

Straubel also did not expect that a billionaire who is usually well behaved would be so outrageous that he could not control his emotions.

Not wanting to listen any more, he said, "That's it, Mr. Musk," before quickly hanging up.

Halfway through Musk's anger, the other party hung up, feeling extremely aggrieved. This made him even more determined to kill Tesla.

Xia Jingxing spread his hands to Straubel, "He is such a person, he is irritable, maybe he is very successful in business, but in life, he is not very easy to get along with.

His friends, Peter Thiel and Reid Hoffman, all spoke of him. "

Straubel laughed. "It doesn't matter anymore, does it?"

"Yes!"

Xia Jingxing got up, smiled and bumped fists with Straubel.

Opening the door of the office, Xia Jingxing and Straubel walked out talking and laughing.

Eberhard and Tarpenning looked at their eyes straight, what's the situation? Is this successful in retaining people?

Xia Jingxing said with a smile: "Straubel and I have had some exchanges and still think Tesla is more suitable for him.

Therefore, the previous things have been turned over, and everyone should not mention them again. "

The reason why he said this is because Xia Jingxing was worried that the two founders had prejudice against the employee, after all, they almost "betrayed the master".

Compared with the Chinese, professional managers in Europe and the United States often change jobs.

Common thing, there is no moral cleanliness.

And Straubel is a very rare technical talent for the company.

So the two founders didn't do anything "fool", but stepped forward very closely, patted Straubel on the shoulder, and their faces were full of smiles.

After chatting for a while, after sending Straubel away, the two founders pestered Xia Jingxing to ask what happened.

Walking into the office, Xia Jingxing asked the two of them to close the door, making it mysterious.

The two founders looked very much looking forward to it, they looked at Xia Jingxing curiously, waiting for each other to tell the story.

"Convince people with virtue!"

Xia Jingxing smiled and said, "It's that simple."

The two founders were speechless and did not believe this at all.

Xia Jingxing selectively told the two of them something, but did not say "let Straubel be the CEO", after all, the current CEO was still sitting in front of him.

"Let Tesla enter thousands of households!"

"The world is laying charging piles!"

"unmanned!"

Three ideas, one is more exaggerated, one is more outrageous.

But the two founders are still very serious about the feasibility of the idea and the means to achieve it.

Xia Jingxing did not hide the two, because these ideas were not worth much, and what really needed to be considered was how to implement these plans and whether there was money to implement them.

Now the three are partners with common interests and goals, which is to make Tesla bigger and stronger.

Taking advantage of the high mood of the two, Xia Jingxing simply had a brainstorm with the two to discuss some of Tesla's strategies, and everyone discussed various plans together.
