This time the leaves are waiting to be born, and Lin Feng can't stay in Hong Kong to accompany her like last time.

Although only 3 or 4 years have passed, the market is changing too fast!

Compared with 06 and 07 years, whether it is the Internet or mobile Internet, the tide of the times has been surging!

And because Fengxing and Kufeng are both star enterprises standing on the cusp of the storm, it can be said that the turmoil in the rivers and lakes is a matter of concern!

Lin Feng found that it was difficult for him to let go completely like he had done in previous years.

Fengxing is better here, after the adoption of the "rotating CEO" system, the collective decision-making system of the senior management team ensures that brainstorming is ensured, and the layout of Fengxing is also the most perfect, in the new hot spots, such as the transformation to the mobile Internet, cloud computing and other directions are one step ahead, and the layout of the data center that has spent a lot of money in the early stage has been consumed, and the advantages have begun to be reflected at this time.

On the one hand, Cool Wind has not been established for a long time, and the foundation is still thin; On the other hand, the smartphone industry is in the midst of fierce global competition, and the opponents are all international giant companies, so the pressure is even greater.

Relying on the management teams of Lei Jun and Li Yinan alone, they may not be able to withstand it.

In particular, the next few major projects, such as the acquisition of Nortel Networks with Google, the launch of Xpad, the licensing of patents with Microsoft and Oracle, and the litigation battle with Apple......

Lin Feng needs to make a decision or come forward in person.

Moreover, after entering 2010, a new group of phenomenal companies appeared in the United States, such as Uber, Snapchat, and now Airbnb, which has begun to emerge.

These are all "unicorns" that can grow rapidly into tens of billions of dollars in valuations over the next few years.

As a "reborn person", Lin Feng has a unique hobby of collecting "phenomenal companies" since Myspace and Facebook earlier, and naturally he does not want to miss the opportunity to invest in these companies in the early stage of entrepreneurship.

All in all, Lin Feng can't stay in Hong Kong and accompany his wife like Dan Dan was born this time.

Fortunately, Ye Weiyu is the second child this time, both physically and emotionally, she is prepared and responds well. The family's professional "parenting group" is also an experienced and mature team, and Ye Lancheng and Liu Fang also flew to Hong Kong to accompany their daughter.

Lin Feng can also rest assured.

After arranging things at home in Hong Kong, he first went to Shenzhen, held a meeting with the management team of Cool Wind for a few days, and determined the company's performance goals and main tasks for this year with Lei Jun and others.

Then, Lin Feng led his own staff team to fly to Silicon Valley on a private plane.

…………

In the past 2009, the stock price of Fengxing Group has risen all the way, and the total market value has exceeded $140 billion, which is close to the market value of Google.

At the same time, another company under Lin Feng, Cool Wind Group, has become one of the world's fastest-growing technology companies, Xphone, Xphone2 popular all over the world, although Cool Wind is not listed, but analogous to Cool Wind's main competitor, Apple, in 2009 the market value has doubled, reaching 189.8 billion US dollars, second only to Microsoft, the second largest market value of global IT companies.

Therefore, the valuation of Cool Wind in the market is now close to 100 billion US dollars!

It's just that the profitability of Cool Wind is too good to need financing in the capital market at all.

It is precisely for this reason that although in the list of the world's richest people released by Forbes at the end of last year, Lin Feng ranked second only to Bill Gates with a net worth of $52 billion (34.7% of the shares of Fengxing Group are worth $48 billion, and other assets and investments are about $4 billion).

But people believe that this is just because the valuation of Coolwind is not easy to calculate, if Coolwind is listed, Lin Feng will surpass Gates in one fell swoop and become the richest man in the world!

To be honest, Lin Feng's title of "the richest man in the world" is really not uncommon.

When he reaches his current level, he understands more clearly that the people who really control wealth and power in this world are not the people on the so-called Forbes rich list.

Rather, it is those who have a long history and have accumulated over countless years and have hidden their wealth in the shadows through countless diversifications and cross-holdings.

Whether it's a family or a consortium......

These people are the real masters of this world!

Lin Feng only hopes that in the future, he can slowly use these methods to hide his figure in the middle and lower reaches of these rich lists, and hide his position in an inconspicuous position.

Low-key is king!

It's a pity that looking at it now, this is still delusional for the time being, after all, his wealth is too transparent.

Not to mention whether Cool Wind goes public or not, in two years, Facebook will go public, and its market value will exceed 100 billion US dollars, and it will rise to 400 billion US dollars in a few years.

Lin Feng's 18.65% stake is worth at least tens of billions of dollars, and it can be said that just adding Facebookd's stake is enough to make him to the top......

Alas, take your time.

Lin Feng started too fast, he didn't know it, and he didn't have time to hide his wealth, so he was already exposed to the world.

Only in the years to come, slowly through various capital means to operate......

In any case, the news of Lin Feng's return to the United States also made countless Wall Street people excited.

You must know that the last time Lin Feng made a big purchase in the United States during the financial crisis, especially the acquisition of Amazon, it made Wall Street investment banks make a lot of money.

This young world's top billionaire, every time he makes a move, whether it is an investment or an acquisition, is an exciting and subtle move.

…………

Lin Feng's plane landed at Moffett Airport in Mountain View, Silicon Valley.

This airport, which belongs to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), has long been used by Google as a base for private jets.

NASA has signed an agreement with Google that allows Google's executives to park private jets at the airport.

With Larry Page's connections and Lin Feng's own name, the first stop of Lin Feng's trip to the United States was to visit Google, and his private plane was also allowed to dock at the airport.

Andy Rubin led some of the executives of the Cool Wind Group US team to the airport to greet him, and Lin Feng's personal financial advisor in the United States, Robert Brown. Robert My, Private Counsel Stephen Brown. Steven Olson, as well as Zhang Jing, president of the American branch of Fengxing Group, and others also came to the airport to wait.

Lin Feng's entourage included his four bodyguards, personal assistant Xie Jiaren, executive director of the Lin Family Trust (former general manager of the private banking department of Bank of China Hong Kong), Yang Chao, CMO of Cool Wind Group, Li Jialiang, director of IR (former deputy director of IR of Fengxing Group), and Peng Zhijian, director of investment and mergers and acquisitions (former director of investment and mergers and acquisitions of Tencent).

This time he came to the United States, because it involved private investment and corporate mergers and acquisitions, so Lin Feng also selected elite soldiers to accompany him.

And the reason why I visited Google first was to acquire Nortel Networks.

There are too many stakeholders involved behind this multi-billion dollar merger and acquisition, and it will also have to be approved by Canadian and U.S. courts, as well as regulatory agencies such as the U.S. Department of Justice, which will require a lot of public relations lobbying.

Lin Feng was not sure that it would be done by the Cool Wind Group alone.

Maybe it will be operated behind the scenes by Apple, Microsoft, and other giants that are deeply rooted in the United States, and Cool Wind will be eliminated early before it enters the game......

And pull up Google, it's a lot better.

Although Google did not hold Android in this life, Larry Page, Sergey Brin, and Schmidt all had enough ambitions to enter the mobile Internet.

At the same time, Google is now also launching its own Google phones (G1, Nexus One), and unlike the previous life and HTC, it was independently developed by Google itself.

In this case, both Google and Coolwind need those 6,000 patents of Nortel Networks!

You should know that these patents cover wireless, wireless 4G, data networks, optical fiber, voice, Internet, service providers, semiconductors and other fields. This broad patent portfolio covers almost every area of the communications industry, but also other markets, including internet search and social networking.

And between them it is simple, just sign a patent licensing agreement.

The two companies can jointly enjoy the relevant rights and interests of these patents through the agreement authorization.

In fact, in the global IT giant landscape, Google and Fengxing (including Coolwind) have been in the same camp because of the cooperation in Android and other aspects. And the established technology companies, represented by Microsoft, are in the other camp.

Originally, Apple was in the same camp as Google, but now it is drifting away, and Apple has begun to turn around and become closer to Microsoft......

Lin Feng stepped off the plane, and Andy and the others stepped forward, their faces not very good.

"BOSS, just got the news that Apple has filed a lawsuit against Xmobile in the federal district court for the District of Delaware, alleging that Androio and Xphone infringe a number of Apple's patents, including the user interface, underlying architecture and ......hardware."

Andy Rubin is extremely depressed, as he is known as the "father of Android", he has recently been dissed by old Joe.

Lin Feng smiled lightly, and said with a smile as he walked: "It's finally here?" Steve was tolerant enough to ...... until now, and I thought it was Microsoft or Oracle that came first. ”

He smiled at Stephen and said, "Steven, you are in charge, gather a large team of lawyers, and we will have a good time with Apple first." I guess Jobs was trying to distract me, and he should have guessed why I came to the U.S. ”

In fact, it is obvious that the remaining patent assets of Nortel Network have already become the sweets of the industry, including Google, Apple, Microsoft, RIM and other companies.

The industry has analyzed the current market structure, and the most needed for these patents, in addition to Apple, Google and other companies, is the emerging Cool Wind.

Lin Feng is not afraid of Apple playing a lawsuit war.

In the United States, as long as you have the money and can afford a lawyer, you can afford to fight a lawsuit.

Coolwind's Xphone is more profitable than Apple's Iphone, and some of them have money to accompany Apple in lawsuits......

Moreover, this kind of patent litigation is the most complicated, and many things at the design level are difficult to identify, and Cool Wind also has patents in his hands and can also counterclaim.

Now the key is those patents of Nortel Networks!

Lin Feng first had to convince Larry Page that Google and Cool Wind would join forces to bid for Nortel Networks.

He worries that Larry Page doesn't know enough about the situation.

In the previous life, Google basically negotiated a good deal with Nortel for only $900 million at first.

It's a pity that it was first sued by Apple and Microsoft and other companies for the unfair acquisition price, and finally made a bid, and then was pitted by Apple and Microsoft, and several alliances raised the price to $4.5 billion.

Lin Feng must let Larry Page know that Google needs Cool Wind in this game!
