The Spring Festival is a festival for the Chinese, and Tony made a special trip to Huangniping to celebrate the Spring Festival.

GCA continues to be a leader in the smartphone market, with revenue exceeding the $100 billion mark and net profit exceeding $30 billion last year. In the past, the company did not pay dividends when Kyle became CEO, but after Shirley took over, it began to pay dividends, and it was ready to pay $15 billion and buy back $15 billion in shares.

Li Jiaming holds a 32.21% stake in Hanhua, what should be done with this cash dividend of up to $6.4 billion?

This is not a problem, the domestic economy is still developing at a high speed, even if it is not digested through the National Bank, there is no worry about investing this money, the key is the information revealed by the dividend itself.

As Lee's personal assistant, Tony is at the helm of his huge family trust, and if that means that the potential for Hanhua's growth is not great, then Tony will consider reducing his holdings; If it is just because GCA has too much cash, its own expansion can't consume that much cash, then it's a different matter.

"No, our plan is that the company only reserves 50 billion in cash."

That is, Hanhua has too much dead money, and its investment and expansion cannot consume huge cash flow, so Tony, who guessed like this, got the news and knew what to do. However, Li Jiaming's next words made him nervous again.

"Tony, the foundation still has to reduce its holdings, I think it's okay to hold about 10% of the shares, what do you think?"

“Boss?”

Li Jiaming knew what Tony wanted to say, but he wasn't prepared to do so. Although he regards Hanhua as a foundation, he does not have the idea of treating it as a family business, and it is not normal for him to dominate the company, and if he wants to make Hanhua a century-old store, he must introduce more powerful shareholders.

Furthermore, the sun is in the middle of the day, and the moon is eclipsed. GCA has exceeded the market value of $500 billion, and now it is time to seek stability, and it is time to invest in diversification rather than stick to GCA.

"Ok", Tony agreed with Li Jiaming's idea after a little hesitation, and agreed to run the matter.

After talking about business, it's time to talk about private matters.

Tony agreed to be Li Jiaming's personal assistant back then, and the two parties had an agreement, in addition to the annual salary and options, there were dividends. Li Jiaming wants to invest heavily in the construction of his hometown, which will inevitably affect the income of the foundation, and then affect Tony's interests.

This matter is also simple, as long as Tony's interests are protected, Li Jiaming is not a stingy person, but what he didn't expect was that Tony was very opposed to this matter.

"Ming, we're friends, aren't we?"

Yes, even with the addition of the dead Mooney, Tony is also the best friend of Lee Jiaming in the United States, not one of them. The two spent five years together at Stanford, and under the same mentor, five years were enough time for them to become friends who talked about everything.

"OK, don't you think you've changed?"

Change? Constant is relative, change is absolute. Li Jiaming looked at this old friend curiously, not knowing what he wanted to say.

"Mentality, don't you think your mentality has changed? In the past, you were aggressive and only looked ahead, but now you are always looking back! ”

Oh, or talking about this investment, Li Jiaming couldn't help but laugh dumbly. I have lived two lifetimes, how can I still maintain the mentality of being in my thirties, according to my mental age, I have not reached the stage of remembrance?

"Ming, you've probably heard that story. A retired millionaire returned to his hometown and lay on the beach every day to bask in the sun, and a poor man also lay there to bask in the sun. After the two became friends, the millionaire talked about his struggles and successes, and the poor man said, 'Finally, you don't bask in the sun here?' ’”

The original meaning of the story is very simple, but the meaning of the extension is the opposite, but Li Jiaming knows that what Tony said is not the meaning of those two or negative or positive. Li Jiaming, who smiled bitterly, reached out and took off the copper kettle boiling on the fire pit, made a new cup of tea for Tony, and said with emotion: "Tony, you have also learned our set, and you began to go around in circles when you talked. ”

"It's dark?"

"The one who is close to the ink is black!"

"Ok, that's what it means, your Chinese is too difficult to learn. Ming, I think you're depressed, and you don't have the fighting spirit you had a few years ago! I remember when you first launched the iPod, you were like an aggressive sheepdog, and when you launched the iPod, you became an aggressive lion. But now, you're starting to look like the old man lying on the beach basking in the sun. ”

Although the words are ugly, compared to the character of the Americans, it can be regarded as a very euphemism, but how can Li Jiaming explain it? Could it be that he is actually old and already has a mentality of gaining and losing?

As long as he shows this meaning, these partners and friends who still want to struggle will leave him. The world is realistic, and no aspirant wants to follow a leader who has lost his ambitions, even if he does more for the team.

Without this high-spirited team, the pile of banknotes guarded by Li Jiaming was only a number, and without these energetic subordinates, he would have become a loner.

Today is the closest Tony, who will be tempted tomorrow?

The superiors also have the difficulties of the superiors, and they are not all the scenery in front of the people.

With a long sigh to himself, Li Jiaming put the largest black pot on his wife's back. There is no way, the husband and wife are one, and she has been a housekeeper at home for a few years, and now it is her turn to be a scapegoat.

"Tony, I've been in the U.S. for thirteen years, do you know what I've been most affected by?"

"What?"

"I don't believe in God, but I believe in love and love family."

Smart people have the advantage of complicating simple things, and when Li Jiaming mentions American beliefs, Tony immediately thinks of him suddenly forcing Kyle to retire. If he wants to take charge of Hanhua himself, but still has to keep the promise he made to his wife, then many puzzling things can be explained.

Seeing Tony's thoughtful appearance holding a teacup, Li Jiaming knew that he had led his train of thought crookedly, and added: "Human energy is limited, if my wife is pregnant a few months early, many things will happen according to the established trajectory." ”

"But"

It's nothing more than the maximization of interests, Li Jiaming didn't want to hear this, and waved his hand to interrupt: "It's nothing, I'm successful enough, between career and family, I'd rather choose family." In addition, I have set strategic goals for the company and found a competent CEO. ”

The clever Tony thought crookedly, and regarded what Li Jiaming was drumming up as if he was unwilling to be lonely and wanted to do something extremely risky to prove his ability. But this Tony, who is also a Stanford doctor, how can he make Li Jiaming happy?

Americans don't say that they are hungry, but there is a hunger marketing term, if Li Jiaming always has a sense of accomplishment, how to arouse his desire for success in the future? As long as the leader of everyone is hungry and thirsty, and he is eager to succeed, he will firmly lead everyone to continue to move forward.

"Ok, I respect your choice, but oppose your plan. Ming, trust me, even if your plan succeeds, it will create an outcome that you don't want to see. ”

"What?"

Li Jiaming couldn't help but be stunned, Tony is not a Mao Yan who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to learn, this kid is an authentic Stanford doctor of economics, and his theoretical skills are no less than his own. On the premise that his interests have been protected, how can he still oppose it, and conclude that even if he succeeds, the result is not what he wants?
