I met Eric Schmidt

Postby shengoro86 » Fri Oct 26, 2012 9:51 pm

Hey guys,

I started working at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton NJ and today we had an awesome lecture about what comes after the Higgs Boson discovery.

Well, it turns out that Eric Schmidt was there and I spotted him so I walked over and said hi.

I didn't know billionaires were so approachable.

We spoke for a little while about business and IT as I'm planning on starting my own company.

Really nice guy.

I did however want to ask him to fund Shenmue 3, but I didn't. That probably would have cost me my job, haha.

If only you had convinced him to add Shenmue to Google's mini-games and homage lineup, we probably would have had a Shenmue 3 announcement follow pretty quickly. :sad:

If my job wasn't on the line, this was a formal occasion, Shenmue 3 would have come up, no doubt. We did talk about Android hacking, which was cool. I now have a way of getting in touch with him but only for business occasion.
