Chapter 174 Major Shareholders

The warrants are protected by law, and as long as Ye Dongqing can pay for them before the expiration date, those shares will be the property of Freshwater Investment Group.

More than a billion US dollars, this is definitely not a small amount of money for him, unless he is stupid enough to sell Facebook shares, otherwise it is difficult to eat them with his own financial resources in a short period of time, fortunately, Ye Dongqing can continue to play the capital lending game with high interest rates, and the delivery time ranging from one to three years also leaves him with sufficient preparation period.

Of course, brokers, fund companies, and investment banks have no reason to do good deeds, and fees are certainly indispensable, but they are nothing compared to profits.

As long as there is no accident, he will choose to eat these shares of Apple no matter what, and then he will become the first largest shareholder deservedly, or the kind that holds more than three times the second largest shareholder, as said before, no one really cares about Apple these years, it is just an old company that does not like dividends and does not have much investment potential.

Mr. Steve Jobs, who was later revered as a god, was at best a stinky and mediocre man, and if he hadn't liked his stinky temper and wanted Apple to be integrated into a force, the board members would never have brought him back to the company in the nineties, when Apple was on the verge of bankruptcy, and it was completely like a dead horse doctor.

From 1997 to the present, Apple's market value has almost doubled, which is barely qualified, but it is not too good, I don't know how many people secretly regret that they did not sell Apple's shares earlier, and take the money to invest in rising stars such as Google.

As for Amazon, Yahoo, etc., many investors are trapped at a high level, or die in the first two years of buying bottoms again and again, even if the stock price doubles or twice, they may not be able to return to their capital, and many people are disappointed to throw them away.

From Ye Dongqing's point of view, these things are quite interesting, I have been annoyed once before, and it is estimated that these investors who choose to sell will regret hitting the wall with their heads, but he has no worries about this, and recently even dreamed of becoming the richest man in the future.

Judging from the current investment goals, it is indeed very possible, even if ordinary institutions seize one of them and hold it for more than ten years, they can laugh to death, and Ye Dongqing will grab several, not to mention Facebook, which is wholly owned by him, you must know that it is only 2003, and it is still very early to complete all the layouts.

At this moment.

Seeing Mr. Tim Cook's boasting about a rudimentary music player, Ye felt that it seemed as if it was a good time to sit down with Jobs and tell him some development suggestions, such as the App-Store, if he didn't warn, it might be a few years before someone made a similar suggestion to Jobs, which was not in the interests of his major shareholder.

Until now, Apple's products have remained technically closed, that is, they develop their own products and supply them to their desktops and computers, which is not called closed, but is simply suicidal, thus forming a vicious circle - few people buy its products, resulting in tight funds, because of the lack of R&D funds, promotion and innovation are in trouble.

Allowing others to participate, this is the medicine that Ye Dongqing is ready to give, since iTunes can be used on the indos operating system, he feels that Jobs will probably not refuse his suggestion.

After a few years of testing, the current predicament has proved that Apple has entered a dead end, the music player iPod may make some money, but it is far from enough, as a major shareholder, who would be happy to see Jobs continue to toss around.

All right.

is worthy of Jobs, just when Ye Dongqing was full of anticipation, Mr. Cook received a phone call, embarrassed to tell him that his boss had something to do and could not come to receive them today.

As for conveying apologies or something, it's more like Cook's own meaning, he belongs to the same camp as Jobs, and recently there has even been news that the development department will be handed over to him to manage, as if he is being trained as a core management.

To be honest, Ye Dongqing doesn't like Tim Cook's personality very much, except for a cool electric car development plan called Titan, there are not too many commendable highlights to be found.

In all fairness, the ability is there, the reason why it is not as legendary as Jobs, there are also reasons for missing a good time, technology has not achieved breakthrough results, there is so much room for development, and after the limelight on smartphones was stolen by Jobs, it is difficult to make consumers feel amazing.

I didn't see him the second time, but it didn't matter, I often came to Silicon Valley in the future, and the shareholder meeting was indispensable to send an invitation letter to Freshwater Investment Group, and there was always a chance to talk to Mr. Jobs in person, and he was ready to take the time to write a plan and send it here, so as to provide new ideas for Apple to get out of the predicament.

There is not much to talk about, I feel that it is almost, and the atmosphere will start to be awkward if I visit it again, Ye Dongqing decisively said goodbye.

The visit is not over yet, and then I went to the more boring Netflix company to go around, Bonnie Ma felt that the trip was worthwhile, and Ye Dongqing fell into a polite social interaction with each other, and he couldn't leave him alone, and waited until the evening to invite Bonnie to have a seafood dinner, the kind that put a big pot of seafood in a basin and ate it casually, the interests were tied together, there was no need to be too polite.

Santa Clara is close to San Francisco Bay, and the seafood is quite abundant, and Bonnie does not know how cheap lobster and king crab are in the United States......

"How do you feel, I'll take you to the Pebble Beach Golf Course to see the scenery?" Don't plan to continue running around, there is a small circle in Silicon Valley, Ye Dongqing temporarily and intends to integrate into it, he is different from those tech maniacs, he is purely a businessman who only focuses on money in his eyes for the time being, even if he meets, he can't find a topic to talk about, so it's better to make do with it for the time being, and when his strength is enough, he will naturally be accepted by the group in Silicon Valley.

"Golf, I don't know that, thank you for your hospitality today, let's have a day off tomorrow, the jet lag hasn't reversed."

I wanted to know about the listing, but now you and MIH Group don't approve of it, so I don't know what I'm going to do, and I want to take the opportunity to visit San Francisco and Los Angeles. ”

"It's okay, I'll help you pay attention to the listing, leave two cars for you tomorrow, tell the driver directly where you want to go, and I'll look for you after I'm busy with the things at hand." Ye Dongqing grabbed a big squid leg, and he liked this kind of wild seafood buffet restaurant, and continued: "Otherwise, let's help you find a tour guide, Chinese tour guide, if you have any questions, call me directly......
