Chapter 765: The World's Richest Man and the Impermanence of the World
A group of people like Bill Gates and Warren Buffett actually held a drinking party in such a remote town, whether it was a large amount of food and wine transported by air, land and water, or teams of security personnel stationed around, even if this town is a tourist attraction, it is completely broken by the arrival of Andy, a group of super-rich people.
Helicopters, yachts, off-road vehicles, etc., are parked on the tarmac and in the parking lot. Nearby tourists and townspeople alike looked curiously at the edge of the ocean, which had been completely guarded by securityguards with sunglasses and headphones.
Except for the basic satellite communication equipment of the inviter, the person who came here did not have any filming and recording equipment, which was mentioned in the invitation letter. It is not allowed to bring any sensitive equipment, especially those that will leak their information, and even if they are brought over, they will be stored and stored in a unified manner when they are received far away.
There will also be on-site testing devices and shielding insurance, these arrangements do not disgust anyone, all for the good of everyone.
Andy's motorcade ushered in a security check again at the entrance of the resort, Andy and Ivana sitting in the car did not show impatience for this, the global terrorist forces are rising, such a group of predators who control the American media, the Internet, security is undoubtedly the most important.
"Honey, are you saying that the purpose of this gathering is really just to discuss the face of the economic crisis?" Ivana looked through the black window at the entrance, with dozens of reporters with xiong cards on either side, and entered the resort under the security check.
Andy played with Ivana's little hand, adjusted his sitting posture comfortably, crossed Erlang's legs and said with a smile: "Maybe there is also a discussion about the first black president, the Wall Street guys have been deepening their influence on who sits on that throne, you don't really think that people in Silicon Valley will watch it." ”
When Ivana heard her boyfriend's explanation, her eyes couldn't help but light up slightly, "Oheiniu?"
"This subprime mortgage crisis is completely the Wall Street people themselves to play with, no matter how Washington's successor attacks and condemns Wall Street during the election campaign, when he sits in that position, he will find out what is called capital control, and O'Black Bull is undoubtedly a candidate that many people on Wall Street are optimistic about, and I am also optimistic about his future, a mascot who preaches American freedom. ”
As Andy spoke, the motorcade drove into the resort, and although scattered security could still be seen, the atmosphere was no longer so tense, and it stopped in front of the main entrance plaza of the main hotel building in the resort.
The car door was opened by the bodyguards, and Andy got out of the car first, turned around to hold Ivana's outstretched hand, and helped her out of the car.
"Hehe, Andy, you're a little late. ”
Hearing the familiar voice, Andy showed a calm smile on his face, looked at the group of people who came out of the hall, and couldn't help but be a little surprised, and greeted Ivana who was also a little surprised.
"Isn't it today? I'm a little flattered, Warren. Andy let go of Ivana's hand and shook hands with Warren Buffett, who was wearing a fluorescent green half-sleeved shirt.
"Of course, it's just that the temperature here is warm enough that many people arrive a few days early, and at this time, Hawaii can rival it. Ivana, you're still so charming... The old rascal quickly threw Andy away and hugged the elegant and sweet smile of Ivana.
Andy, on the other hand, set his sights on Bill Gates, the world's richest man with glasses and a confident smile on his face.
"Hello, Mr. Gates. Nice to see you. ”
Bill Gates looked at the young man in front of him who was very admired by his old friend Warren Buffett, put his left hand in his trouser pocket, stretched out his right hand and shook it with Andy, and said with a smile: "Before, I was still talking to Mark about your game ideas, a happy farm, but Microsoft paid a lot of price in the negotiations with Facebook." ”
Regarding the ridicule of Bill Gates, who would put one hand in his pocket when shaking hands with anyone, Andy just smiled and said: "The value of Facebook is not something that can be swayed by a social game, it is worth the price, I don't think Mark will disappoint us investors, right, Mark?"
Xiao Mazi, who was wearing a gray T-shirt and shorts on the side, shrugged his shoulders confidently, and then shook Andy's hand with a smile and said: "You are a shareholder who is a little irresponsible, throw down an agent, and never show up again, damn it, I should have given you a creative director position in the first place, don't think I don't know that you are making a social software application called Instagram (photo wall), give me a price, I will buy your idea in the form of cash and shares... ”
"Hehe, your idea is very unfriendly, Mark, although I am very optimistic about Facebook, but I also cherish Instagram, and, although you have just received investment from Microsoft, but, man, although Instagram is still just a BABY, but this is the baby I created, its future value is immeasurable, even if it is to be sold, it is definitely not now. ”
Although Andy said it with a smile, but the people present were all people, and they could hear Andy's confidence and disdain for the acquisition that Mark said, and slightly stabbed the slightly arrogant Xiao Mazi, Andy sneered in his heart, for Xiao Mazi's aggression, he has a memory, he is very clear, Xiao Mazi's favorite thing to do is to use the so-called Facebook valuation to use capital means to devour opponents or potential opponents who can threaten Facebook, and finally achieve the purpose of dominating the market.
Andy can understand the high spirits of Xiao Mazi now, after all, he just won Microsoft in the negotiations, and he and Bill Gates are talking and laughing on an equal footing, but he was deflated by Andy, and he didn't show an embarrassed look, but pouted and said: "I know you won't agree, what you like the most is to take the initiative to maximize benefits, damn, I should have bought out the copyright of Happy Farm directly... ”
Thinking that with the global promotion of Facebook, the income of Happy Farm can be said to be a daily profit, and it has become Facebook's largest source of income at present, but according to the previous contract, Facebook can only get half of the profit, watching a lot of dollars divided into two and taken away, Xiao Mazi regrets a little that he didn't pay a few more shares to buy out this game directly.
"Hey, man, it's not a good idea to eat alone!" Andy raised an eyebrow, patted the pockmarked arm, and ignored him, continuing to meet the others.
After a brief greeting, a group of people walked into the hotel lobby laughing, and Andy whispered to Warren and asked, "Why didn't I see Steve, hasn't he arrived yet?"
Warren looked at Andy a little amusedly and said, "Hehe, he didn't come this time, he sent Cook over, but he won't be there until the afternoon, you know, his body... Oh, that's too much, you're fighting a lot right now. ”
Andy rolled his eyes and said angrily: "How can my little arms and legs fight against that behemoth of Apple, I'm being bullied Okay, you still have to be honest in business." ”
Bill Gates, who was next to Warren, turned his head to look at Andy with a meaningful and strange smile, and was amused in his heart, for Jobs, who was also friend and foe, Bill Gates couldn't say that he hated and liked it, but he was still very happy to see that bastard eating deflated.
"Hehe, everyone knows that you have been calculating Apple for a long time, so on the issue of integrity, it is easy to fall into Rashomon, and making a fuss about it has no impact on Apple... ”
Hearing Bill Gates' whispers of laughter, Warren and Andy both looked at the world's richest man with a black belly in disbelief.
"Why are you looking at me like that, Andy, I've been whispered by Warren in my ear all this time and I really want to know you, it's the first time I've seen Warren look up to a young man so much, and he thinks very highly of you. ”
When Andy heard Bill Gates say this again, he was sure that this was not the polite thing he thought at first, and looked at Buffett.
Warren Buffett pushed the black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, looked at Andy with deep eyes and said: "I told Bill, you are a very interesting young man, not only have a pair of eyes to see the future, but also have the courage and ambition to achieve it!"
Andy frowned slightly, and his eyes were also deep, but in an instant, he shook his head and said, "Are you trying to kill me? ”
"Haha... ”
"Haha-"
Warren and Bill Gates burst into laughter at Andy's expression and self-deprecation, drawing the attention of the other attendees in the hall.
In the rest area, International Zhang couldn't suppress her excitement and said something to her wealthy businessman boyfriend, Warner executive Vivi Nevo, this time to be able to follow her boyfriend's light to participate in this kind of top party, for International Zhang undoubtedly fully satisfied his vanity.
Hearing the laughter coming from the main entrance of the hall in the distance, International Zhang and her boyfriend VIVI both looked over curiously.
"It's Andy Smith. Vivi's eyes lit up, and he vaguely remembered what Andy had been like when he had a party, but in just one year, the young man who could still rely on wealth to make him think he was level now needs to look up.
"Oh my God... International Chapter saw Andy, who was talking and laughing with the real world's top bosses, with a strange light flashing in the depths of his eyes, and Wendy Murdoch, who needed her to please her, was affectionately pulling Ivana and saying something with a smile.
International Zhang glanced at the boyfriend opposite who also looked at the group of people with envy without a trace, and sighed slightly, it seems that she is more than one or two streets away from the real top class, and her big man, who is already very awesome in her eyes!
