Jobs' conditions did not appeal much to Feng Yiping. ，x.

The annual salary of 50,000 US dollars, how can he take it seriously, as for the gift of shares, it is estimated that the total value will not be higher than the annual salary, which is not a big deal.

Speaking of which, the title of Special Adviser is a bit useful.

His Jiasheng, although good, is still a long way from a world-class well-known company, while Google is still an emerging company, and Apple is different.

Although Apple has been on a downward spiral for a long time since the 90s, it is undeniable that it is still a world-renowned company, and in such a company, serving as a special adviser to such a legendary figure will be of some benefit to the young Feng Yiping and the young Jiasheng.

No matter how bad it is, it will add a good note to Feng Yiping's shiny background.

But that's not enough, my brother came to the United States, not just to keep his name, but to help you big companies make a lot of money faster.

We are also shouldering the jobs of tens of thousands of people!

"I'm honored!" Feng Yiping said, "It's just that I have a request that I hope you can consider,"

"It's okay, you say,"

"I have a lot of confidence in Apple under your new leadership, and I cherish the opportunity to work with you, so I can take a symbolic dollar for my annual salary, but I want to buy a certain number of Apple shares, at least more than one million shares. ”

Over the years, he has also collected a lot of Apple stocks in a scattered manner, but this thing, how can there be too much, he hopes to make it big at one time.

Now Apple's stock price is around $10, and its all-time high seems to be in the $700 range? Just invest about 10 million funds this time, and it can easily become about 700 million by then, and Buffett is also capable of this.

"That's right," the smile faded from Jobs' face, "Thank you for your trust, but this question." I need to talk to the board. ”

I know that people like Jobs are different from young people like Page and Brin, who still have the ingredients to work hard for their dreams, and Jobs is different, although he also has dreams, from the beginning of his business, there is one thing that he has always looked at more closely than products, and that is money!

For money. He can deceive the co-founder Wox without changing his face, and even more ruthlessly not give a little stake to the other employees who started the business with him in the first place.

Such a person, such a character, will definitely be very calm and cautious when it comes to the problem of stocks and money.

Seeing Jobs' reaction, Feng Yiping didn't feel embarrassed at all, in a highly commercialized society like the United States. It is only natural to fight for reasonable interests for oneself. Besides, he thought that this request was not excessive, and he just hoped that Jobs could provide some convenience and save some trouble.

You can't just be stupid and pay attention to a gentleman's friendship with these capitalists because they were quite speculative before.

"Huh. Maybe my request is a bit presumptuous," Feng Yiping's smile faded.

It's okay, then let Li Ruiyuan slowly close it, in other words, Apple's stock is not very sought-after now. If it weren't for the iPod launched last year, which quickly became popular and achieved success that even Apple itself did not expect, Feng Yiping would not have opened this mouth at all, and it was easy to buy in the market.

"No, you are investing in the purchase, and for our hundreds of millions of outstanding shares, this amount is not too large, but there are some financial issues that need to be considered,"

Although Jobs was very sensitive to money, he quickly analyzed the possible benefits of letting Feng Yiping join, and his attitude immediately softened.

Feng Yiping found that finance, this is really a perfect excuse.

Page felt a little embarrassed, "The company still has something waiting for us to go back, Steve, you are also busy, then Feng and I will say goodbye first,"

"Wait a minute," Jobs said, standing up and dialing a phone, "prepare two G4s, and two sizes of ibooks, and send them to the parking lot now." ”

Hehe, this can be regarded as enjoying the benefits in advance.

However, after mentioning so many benefits just now, Feng Yiping felt that it was also a matter of course for Feng Yiping, "Thank you," he said lightly.

"iBook is also a new product that has just been released, and I hope that you can also put forward some valuable comments after using it, and I will definitely let the board of directors decide on your request. Jobs sent the two of them to the elevator, and then simply followed, "Feng, you really don't have any other opinions about our products, such as the G4?"

Since I ask you to do your best, then the courtesy is still exchanged, and I can still say more, "The price is still too high, for example, in China, the price of low-end models is also more than 10,000 yuan, and it takes a few months of income to buy one,"

"This is already the best result of our multi-faceted compression," Mr. Jobs said, "Do you have a way to reduce costs?"

"It's simple," Feng Yiping said, "let's go to China! That will not only reduce costs, but also increase production."

Whoever takes over the business, it's always good to create some jobs for the country.

Watching the three cars go away, Jobs rarely didn't go back to the office immediately, but paced in place with his chin propped up, as if thinking about some big problem, and soon, the piece around him was unclear and consciously vacated.

Some employees who witnessed the scene just now were secretly asking, who is that Asian young man?

Sending guests to the parking lot, they, the genius CEO, have not done it for many years.

…………

"Don't worry about Feng," back to Google, seeing that Feng Yiping was a little low, Page patted him on the shoulder and comforted, "Your request must be fine, you may not know, the current Steve, should be the most powerful CEO of all our high-tech companies in the United States, he just returned, and dissolved the board of directors, and the current board members are all found by him, and they have no binding force on him, more functions, as if as a think tank,"

This Feng Yiping really doesn't know, according to the corporate governance structure of Europe and the United States, which CEO without absolute control can be so good, and even the board of directors will dissolve when he says it will be dissolved?

"Where does he have so much power?"

"Before his return, including the first few years of his return, Apple's shape was very bad, and he was on the verge of bankruptcy, and those people, who had invited him back like a savior, could agree to anything. ”

I see.

However, Feng Yiping estimates that even if this is not the case, the proud Jobs will definitely find a way to clean up the directors who exiled him in the first place.

He also believes in Buddhism, and he will not pretend to pay attention to Christianity, and if someone hits him on the left cheek, he will hand over the right cheek, and if someone slaps him, he will definitely return it loudly.

"And, as far as I know, Apple often uses stocks to motivate employees and executives, and sometimes even gives away millions of shares a year, and you want to buy them with money, and it's not a problem at all.

Moreover, although Apple's stock price has recovered after Steve's efforts, it is not very sought-after in the market, in short, not a problem, I think he will give you an answer in the next day or two. ”

In that case, why didn't Jobs, who was completely capable of making a decision, agree on the spot?

As Page expected, on the morning of the third day after the meeting, Feng Yiping received a call from Jobs, "Feng, the company's board of directors has agreed to your request, if you need, we can give up 1.5 million restricted shares at one time,"

Oh yes! Perfect! (To be continued.) )
