Jobs is still preparing, and Ye Dongqing is trying to assist.

Managing such a large company is not easy, and if Apple is to be transformed and invest a lot of money to support this secret research and development program, it must have the support of a majority of the board members. As a latecomer, Ye Dongqing had little influence on the board of directors, so he had to talk to Mr. Bill Campbell in person, trying to get support from him, the chairman of the board, and the effect was not bad.

If he eats all those warrants and gets the underlying shares through Tamsui Investment Group, it will definitely be much easier to talk about things, after all, Apple has not had a major shareholder with a shareholding ratio of more than 20% for a long time, which can be traced back to when Steve Jobs first founded Apple and held 30% of the shares.

It can only be said that there are advantages to being tender, and it is always easier to gain the favor of others by smiling and speaking politely, and since he has agreed to come to Facebook as a consultant, Mr. Bill Campbell is probably not a big problem here.

He and Steve Jobs lobbied the other six board members to make it very likely that the new plan would pass, after all, it is such a huge market, rather than continuing to follow the rules, it is better to take a gamble on the basis of maintaining the existing business, they are all businessmen, and I believe that other shareholders can understand this.

Before Jobs elaborated on the plan, many shareholders were still in the dark, and Ye Dongqing wanted to take as much Apple stock as possible to make a time difference.

Some funds and brokerages tried to sell Apple shares at a premium, and he felt that the price could be suppressed, so he didn't ask for it, and at the moment he sat in a Mercedes-Benz car, called Ms. Vigo, and said: "Ask who is still willing to sell Apple shares, I want the premium within 30 percent, and it is still traded in the form of warrants, and it is best to extend the delivery time to two years later." ”

Vigo is about to leave, she still chooses to start a business with those unreliable guys, almost everyone feels that they are different, before they have tried, they always think that others can't do it, it doesn't mean that they can't do it, just like Silicon Valley, like Wall Street, there is never a shortage of entrepreneurs who go forward and succeed, and there are few successes.

There is a work ethic, and since she has not yet left, Ms. Vigo is still working hard, and after listening, she replied: "Okay, the company still has some money on its books, and if the premium is relaxed to 30%, it should be easy to talk to them." ”

"I also think so, iPod music players have been selling well recently, but the performance has not yet reached the point of amazing, start to buy it back today, if it doesn't work, then spend money directly to buy it from them, I will find a way to get more funds, about two or three billion US dollars, as long as I am willing to sell, I will spend money to buy it." ”

Ye Dongqing said.

Some time ago, Richard Rockefeller raised 70 million US dollars to invest in him, and the money just hit the company's account last month, and he planned to use the money to invest in Alibaba, but now it is not bad to use this money to invest in Apple, as long as there are no problems, the rate of return will not be too low.

The rest of the money can be obtained from bank loans with Facebook shares, and judging from the fanatical attitude of investors towards it, as long as the news is released, a large number of banks will definitely pounce out, with Freshwater Investment Group as a guarantee, and the shares themselves are attractive, and it is not a problem to borrow two or three billion US dollars, rather than letting the valuable shares go for nothing, it is better to use them to earn more money.

After the order, put the phone back in his pocket, they were on the way to Apple, Jobs asked Ye Dongqing to help make a specific plan, just idle and had nothing to do, it seemed good to join in the fun.

Pony Ma and others went to Los Angeles to travel, Ye Dongqing didn't have to continue to entertain them, there was no big problem on Facebook for the time being, he couldn't help with interviewing new employees or anything, and Kanek, who was transferred to California, said that he was going to come to report to him, but he just sent a message saying that he would not come until tomorrow.

has already thrown a lot of money into Apple, and then more money will be thrown in, it is not okay not to be careful, let the bodyguards wait outside, Ye Dongqing finished registering and received a sign and walked into the Apple headquarters building, and after calling Jobs, soon a girl led him to Jobs's office.

In addition to Steve Jobs and Tim Cook, there was also a white male who introduced himself: "Jonathan Eve, it's nice to meet you, I'm the company's chief designer, your idea is just huge, and I'm excited about those planned products!"

is another future boss of Apple, Ye Dongqing smiled and shook hands with the other party: "Please call me Leo, it seems that you are already preparing, are you sure that you can develop them?"

"What do you mean, iPod-touch or iPhone? We need a clearer touch screen, an LCD screen, and a small, high-performance battery, and the processor must be smaller and more powerful, and we are collecting all kinds of technical information, and some products need to be customized, and we ask other companies to help develop them, but I think as long as there is enough time, there should be no big problem."

It's definitely a lot of work, maybe more powerful people to help, and I can't give you an accurate answer right now, my head is already stuffed with all kinds of messages. ”

There are paper documents everywhere, in order not to leak secrets, they temporarily handled the preliminary work in Jobs's office, Jobs took a contract to Ye Dongqing, and said: "Although it is your idea, the confidentiality agreement must be signed first, I hope you can do it even if you are drunk and will not tell others about our plan, you take a look at it first." ”

"Don't worry, I hold the most shares, and if you want to say who wants to leak the most, it must be me. ”

Ye Dongqing took it and read it, signed his name on the confidentiality contract, and flipped through the information casually, which was full of various technologies, Apple's patented technology, and they were checking what could be used, and the workload was not small.

Cook and Jobs discussed the establishment of a new department, an independent R&D laboratory, the formulation of a confidential structure, the expansion of recruitment, etc., which had to be dealt with from the beginning, and so far no one has developed in this direction, and called the head of the software department to talk to him about the development of the App-store, of course, the confidentiality agreement is naturally indispensable.

Among this group of people, only Ye Dongqing has used the App-store, so he knows best, and he is responsible for explaining, only saying that it is the product he imagines, and the other party's eyes light up when he hears it......
