Shanghai Airport, 8:12 a.m.

Surrounded by two assistants, the middle-aged David hurriedly walked out of the exit, and several subordinates who had been waiting outside for a long time hurriedly greeted him.

"How long does it take to get to the venue?"

David didn't say much to say hello, and asked straight to the point as he took the headphone device handed over by a blonde chick and put it on his head.

"32 minutes! Tesla helped us apply for the Iron Rider to open the way. ”

The person in charge replied.

"Oh?" Davy glanced at his subordinate with a large receding hairline in surprise, and explained seriously, "Remember to remind me to thank that Mr. Zhao later." ”

"Yes. ”

At this time, David had already put on the headset equipment, and while turning on the switch, he asked, "What's the situation now?"

"It's complicated, Tesla's attitude has always been very clear, at most a week, three negotiations, if there is no result, they will continue to contact other investment banks. ”

"How complicated ......."

Before Davy could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by the cacophony of discussion in his headphones.

"Obviously, the other side didn't really care about us, and our biggest mistake was not sending the highest level of management, which led to the current situation - we haven't seen the Tesla founder for three days. ”

David frowned, pressed the microphone, and said quietly, "Now I'm here?"

"Who are you?"

"Morgan Stanley, David!"

"F**K, David, what the hell are you doing earlier, what's the use of coming now?"

It was Bellston executives, David's old rivals, who spoke and became polite without the asymmetry of status.

“Steve!” David also raised his voice: "It's better than none of the three of us, now, tell me, has anything happened during my flight?"

Now is the lowest trough of the Internet bubble, the American plutocracy is all anxious not to want, although this time the three top levels did not come, but all the three elite departments came, enough to reflect the attention and sincerity of the three majors, however, Tesla's requirements for time are too harsh!

"David. In the headphones, another voice came, "At present, the news that the three companies have received is different, just now, we were arguing about the quid pro quo." ”

"Joe, you're wrong, it should be four. At this moment, a soft and crisp female voice came.

David frowned, "Time Warner, Nancy?"

In the headphones, a chuckle came: "Long time no see, David." ”

"Just come. David laughed equally lightly: "I'm really scared of that idiot at AOL!"

"So ......"

David said without hesitation: "One by one." ”

"Okay. ”

"No problem. ”

"Yes, but David, our goal of trying to lower prices through joint negotiations may be bankrupt!"

David had already sat in the business car at this time, in the quiet carriage, David nodded slowly, and said into the headphones: "We never seem to have been sincerely united, let's start, I'll listen." ”

"Let's start with Bear Stearns. Yesterday, three player companies publicly responded to Tesla's offer, and one of them has already opened an online music subscription service. ”

"This is Merrill Lynch, and the news we got is: The flower planting government has expressed its stance to the outside world through a series of events in the past few days that it will increase its support for Zhao Song. ”

David was stunned and hurriedly asked, "Are you sure?"

This kind of entrepreneur with a government background is a complete plus, and with such a business leader, public relations expenses (lobbying) can be saved a lot.

"Pretty sure, David! He's currently holding no less than four public offices in state-owned enterprises, and you could even think of him as a government official in the business world. ”

"Good!" Davy nodded and continued, "Anything else?"

"Tesla reached a settlement agreement on Sony's U disk intellectual property rights yesterday evening, and the two sides also signed a series of cross-licenses for mobile storage and music playback. ”

"What does this have to do with us?" asked Davy impatiently.

"David, Sony Records has hooked up with Tesla!"

"Speaking of Sony, we have a piece of news from the island country, yesterday, SOD Co., Ltd. held a press conference to announce the acquisition of the fifth and ninth largest record companies in the island country at the same time. ”

Afraid that David didn't know the connection, in the headphones, the voice then explained: "David, SOD President Takahashi Ya can also be said to be Zhao Song's closest business partner in the island country, since they met, Takahashi Ya also quickly became famous in the island country's AV circle, and now, the island people prefer to call him 'Golden Left Brain'!"

What a mess this is. David pursed his lips, looking at the road ahead with his chaotic eyes, looking at the unexpectedly prosperous Oriental Demon Capital.

"David, the news of the island country is very messy, speculation about the relationship between Zhao Song and Takahashi Masaya, Takahashi Masaya's family background will have relevant information for you, and now I want to talk about Tesla:

At present, Fujitsu, Toshiba, Elpida are listed as first-class strategic partners, through the relationship of Takahashi Masaya, Zhao Song has been maintaining communication channels with Fujitsu mobile group, at the same time, taking advantage of the industry downturn, the opportunity of layoffs, Tesla has poached at least 4 senior engineers from the Yamato laboratory. “

"Daiwa Labs....... IBM........ Notebook?"

David muttered.

Yamato Labs is IBM's notebook design center, and in the field of mobile computers in the island nation, Sony** seems to have lost its effect on the islanders, where 7 adults prioritize Fujitsu when buying a notebook. As for Toshiba, it's almost crippled by itself!

"That's right, David, once the Tesla notebook comes out, then its last short board will be plugged. ”

“..........”

"David, we should be glad that we reached a negotiation agreement with Tesla early. Under our feet, this super five-star hotel is already full of people, not only other large investment banks, but also some American conglomerates, European record companies, and representatives of major flower banks. ”

David's brows are furrowed deeper and deeper, the record company, plus so many partners, Tesla can be said to have completed the ecological closure in the island country, and there, it has been unimpeded!

Suddenly, David raised his voice and said irritably: "Everyone, I know that I have come to the flower planter's house, but can you turn off the damn background music in the conference room, I even know that the world-famous song that is playing is called "Erquan Reflecting the Moon", but I really can't imagine how it will do us any good to play this sad music at such a pressing moment." ”

“..........”

"David. ”

After a few moments, Nancy's voice came from the headphones: "Actually, the negotiations have begun, and since I woke up in the morning, this damn tune has been coming out of the opposite room, and I'm pretty sure that the two gates between us and that instrument are absolutely paper-mâché!"

Nancy even doubted that the knock on the empty door would allow her little woman to punch through!

Nancy, a strong woman who has entered middle age, is sure that the young boy she has never met is definitely a guy with a bad stomach!

“........”

David, who had just gotten off the plane, suddenly felt physically and mentally exhausted again, he sorted out his thoughts, and finally asked: "Do you have any agreement on the valuation of Tesla?" ”

“...........”

He was answered by a silence.

"Okay!" Davy looked at his watch, "I'll be there in ten minutes, let me know in advance, after this meeting, Morgan Stanley will negotiate with Tesla alone!"

"Hey~ In addition to this, what else will you have for coming here in person, we have already guessed!"

Bear Stearns' old rival replied dismissively.

...............

Turning off the headphones, David turned his head to look at his hairline subordinates: "Lun, what do you suggest?"

Hairline shook his head regretfully: "David, we know too little about that Zhao Song, before and after he went to college, it was completely two people, two circles!"

Investment banks each have their own unique set of criteria for what they invest in.

But in the flower planters, they are more of a voter.

For example, so far, how can the Internet company that has not any originality make Goldman Sachs invest in half of the country, the main reason is that the president of Goldman Sachs (Flower Planter) can look at people.

The hairline subordinate frowned deeply, and continued while recalling: "For Zhao Song's understanding, in addition to various news, I heard a sentence from the IBM team that is doing business services for Tesla: the ultimate user experience, minimalist aesthetics, strong marketing capabilities, extremely heavy fetish complexes and extreme perfectionism. ”

David was stunned and muttered, "This kind of thinking ....... Is that....... Younger Joe Maniac?"

Hairline shook his head: "Only when we meet do we know what kind of person he is, David, in the Tesla Industrial Park, I have seen so far, the most complete industrial chain supporting services and infrastructure construction, with the help of IBM, their productivity and effectiveness are still greatly improved, coupled with low labor costs, isn't this the reason why we in the United States have transferred the downstream industry to this side, but Tesla is the first to let us see the advantages here!"

David nodded slowly: "Anything else?"

"Yes There, Tesla was honest with us about their finances, they transferred Tesla's cash flow, they divested microelectronics, and that national mission, Loongson, and now, Tesla Technology Co., Ltd., is a clean technology company. ”

Hairline took out a copy of the information and handed it to David: "This is the list of Tesla's suppliers in the United States, which involves three of our investments, if we invest in it, what will be the result of the good news reflected in the stocks of those three?"

David, can you imagine? When I see all this, it's like seeing a delicious cake falling from the sky, and that kid is a devil, and this big cake is like it's just for us!"

David looked at the information in his hand with a shocked expression, and quickly asked, "Does he have anything sensitive in his hand?"

Hairline knew what David wanted to ask, shook his head and said:

"There is no high-tech, and those things on Fujitsu's assembly line were originally projects that Deyi and other companies hesitated to give up, but I didn't expect Tesla to buy all the territory.

I guess his purpose in doing this is to replace domestic products and reduce costs, when the yield of those products meets Tesla's requirements, with the advantages of Tesla's whole industry chain, how much can the cost be reduced?

As for memory.......

We in the United States have long since stopped doing it, there are at least fifty companies in the world playing this, and none of them are making money now!"

Now is not the future, and there is still one of the three major memory particle oligarchs in the United States, which can be used as a weapon involving the mainland.

Hearing the hairline's explanation, David was relieved and finally asked, "What else?"

"Yes!" Hairline nodded seriously, took out a bunch of newspapers and materials and handed them to Mr. President again: "These are the news that he beat people and went to prison two days ago, and there is also the news that Tesla is a science fiction company, and they have not taken any remedial measures."

There was also news from a week ago: the state-owned share reduction plan will be launched soon, which will cause the market to fluctuate and transfer hot money.

Thinking of Zhao Song's sudden decision to go to Shanghai and Shenzhou Science and Technology to inspect Guangdong Province, my approximate guess is: the stock market crash of planting flowers is imminent, Zhao Song has been cooling down the stock price of Shenzhou Technology, and when the crash, he will definitely have a series of good news released. ”

Speaking of this, the hairline looked at David seriously and said with emotion:

"President, such an enterprise, such an entrepreneur who is responsible for the interests of shareholders, what reason do we have not to vote for him?"

..................

Ritz-Carlton sub-top floor.

In the room opposite the conference room, the girl who played the erhu stopped what she was doing, opened the door lightly, and then ran to the side with a snicker........

The flower and musical instruments all live with a soul, the guqin and the guzheng live in the ancient literati, the erhu lives in a deep and desolate market people, the dizi and xiao are the chivalrous guests of the rivers and lakes, and as for the suona, there is a bandit living in it~

Twelve minutes later, David arrived at the second penthouse of the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, where he knocked on the door that was clearly new, listening to the empty voices and laughing and crying.

Then, he glanced at the room full of investment elites, cleared his throat, and said:

"Let's seize the time and unify the ...... for the next negotiations"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by a high-pitched and crying suona.

"Na Na~"

“........”

David's body trembled, and his face was bruised.

"What is this?"

"Suona~" Nancy replied with a smile.

"I know, I'm asking what kind of tune it is. ”

Nancy shrugged, didn't speak, and listened quietly.

............

"Erquan Music" is miserable, but it is so good, so, there is a more miserable song than it, the song that is miserable for the sake of misery originally had no lyrics, but in order to better describe it, someone filled in the lyrics for it:

Flowing, my tears

It's like a river that never goes back

It's not just going to be endless

It's endless, it's endless

Great river

Take away my tears

Let my past

With that river never looking back.

.................

After the song "River Water" is played, the time for negotiation is coming.

In the face of that young company, but occupying 30% of the global portable MP3 market share, no one wants to be late, and no one dares to be late.

Otherwise, the sharks downstairs, who seem to smell blood, will pounce viciously, and the shareholders behind them will tear them to pieces.

Sighing deeply, forcibly mentioning the feeling of being depressed because of hearing "River Water", David said softly: "Let's go, go and meet the richest man who grows flowers." ”

....................

Five minutes later, the delicious feast carefully prepared for the world of Western capital will officially welcome its predators.

Capital means bloody, cruel, and full of magic.

Tesla, how much is it worth?

At this moment, the world is watching!

...............

I'm Zhao Song, the owner of a company that has music engraved in my bones, and next, please listen to the third song for you.
