Chapter 188: Wrapping (II)

"Gates, not only Jobs, but also you, are worth this annual salary, but I can't afford it. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Li Mo said wistfully.

Everyone likes sycophants, and Jobs is at the lowest point in his life. He was a little moved and said, "Lee, you know, I just got kicked out by Apple." ”

"Jobs, I've seen your computer, and it's going in the right direction. It's just that you were forced by the pressure of R&D funds and IBM to launch it too early, but the hardware and software couldn't keep up, and it failed. But how many people can surpass you in this kind of forward-looking ability? I also analyzed a series of Apple's actions since you left Apple. If there are no accidents, they have only two paths, one is to slowly decline, and finally go bankrupt. Li Mo said.

Ballmer was clever on the side, and I should sell the Apple stock quickly.

"There is another way, that is, to invite you back with eight sedan chairs, so that Apple can regain its glory. ”

Li Mo had to explain: "The sedan chair is a means of transportation in ancient China, where distinguished people travel, sitting in it, several people carry the sedan chair and let him reach his destination." ”

"I've seen the sedan chair," Bill Gates said on the side, saying the word sedan chair in strange Chinese, gesturing with his hand in the air.

"Well, that's it, in ancient China, the sedan chair needed to be carried by several people, and there were strict regulations, and only officials above the third rank were qualified to use a sedan chair carried by eight people, which is equivalent to your governor. ”

With this explanation, Jobs roughly understood the meaning of the eight sedan chairs and asked him to go back, but he was a little unconvinced.

Li Mo took out another thing from his briefcase, which was a detailed outline of "Toy Story 1", and Li Mo coded eleven pages, it was a yard, not a write. There are also seventy or eighty important illustrations.

Otherwise, in the future, Jobs had a sudden inspiration and was preparing to make it, but found that the script was registered by Li Mo, and the portrait copyright was also registered by Li Mo, and Jobs would definitely feel weird.

"This is my second gift to you, don't touch it until the technology breaks through. Li Mo said solemnly.

It was the world's first fully computer-generated animation, and Jobs achieved so many firsts......

It is said that each frame takes between 4 and 13 hours to make, and the entire working system consists of 87 dual-CPU and 30 4-CPU Sparc workstations, as well as a Sparc1000 server, at a cost of hundreds of millions of dollars.

If you want to touch it with the current technology, it will definitely be dead.

At the beginning of Li Mo's cartoon, how did ILM's animation studio get it? They drew it frame by frame by hand, and then used the computer for post-production. It's this little beginning, according to Brady's reflection, it may take the summer to get it done. Anyway, the three million dollars given by Li Mo are not enough.

Jobs, Bill Gates and others were lying on the table looking at the outline of the story and the illustrations, and Jobs said: "Lee, no wonder you want to invest in a toy company, your company even saves creativity." ”

Li Mo didn't really give it to Jobs.

But Li Mo doesn't care about the adaptation right of animation copyright, and he also inserted a foot in Pixar, for derivatives, not for derivatives, but to obtain the right to produce derivatives.

Like "Jurassic Park", Li Mo even took the initiative to give up the rights and interests of derivatives, but there is only one requirement, if Li Mo enters the toy industry, it must be handed over to Li Mo's toy company for production, of course, the price shall not be higher than other toy companies, the quality must be guaranteed, if the quality is not qualified, the two major film companies have the right to refuse to accept.

Naturally, the two film companies could not refuse this request.

Li Mo nodded: "It does have something to do with them, besides, to give you a third gift, I am not drawing two animations, but more than a dozen animations, mostly series of cartoons, each of which can be made into several episodes of animated films." Steve Jobs, if you buy the animation studio of ILM, the technology won't be able to keep up for the time being, but I can give the beginning of their story to this studio to make it and keep it profitable. ”

Jobs made Li Mo say blindfolded: "Lee, you are so optimistic about me?"

"Steve Jobs, when it comes to the ability to innovate high-tech products, I'm not as good as you. When it comes to software development, I'm not as good as Gates. When it comes to management, I'm not as good as Gates and Ballmer. But I've always been good at analysis, and you're not as good as me in this one. Li Mo said a little unashamedly.

It's not a boast, who can catch up with his prophetic prescience in these decades.

"Lee, I hope we can really become the best in all walks of life in the future," Bill Gates said, raising his glass.

"Li is still young, he can't let him drink, and champagne can't do it," Jobs said, just now Li Mo ran around with champagne, but just with it, the waiter didn't dare to let him really drink it, then both sides would be sad.

Hao Like smiled on the side: "Jobs, don't worry, Li can drink several taels of baijiu at home, Chinese baijiu, do you know, some baijiu is stronger than vodka." But Lee, in our United States, you'd better not drink, or you'll get into a lawsuit. ”

"In that case, I'll take it. Mr. Jobs said, and he said to Mr. Hollick, "You are his legal counsel, and tomorrow we will talk about the future of the studio's shares, and other specific matters." ”

β€œOK。 Hollick said happily that he was really worried that Jobs would hack five million......

"Gates, can you give us an idea of Microsoft's plans after going public?"

There are no outsiders, Li Mo is also a major shareholder of Microsoft, and Bill Gates has about his plans for the next two years...... Actually, it really doesn't matter, but Li Mode needs this reason.

He listened carefully, and after listening thoughtfully.

"Lee, what's wrong?"

"It's not inappropriate, I'm thinking about an investment. ”

"What investment?" Paul came with interest.

"Paul, it's not an investment in futures, I still say that futures are very risky, especially high-leverage futures. There are opportunities every year, every month, but I didn't analyze it well, so I didn't dare to enter. You have to be 100% sure before you can take the risk and try it. ”

"That's true, Gates, if you run Microsoft well, you won't have to worry about wealth in the future, and it's better not to touch futures," Jobs is the big brother, and he has to warn the younger brother.

"But there is really an investment right now, the rate of return is not too high, maybe it can double in a year?"

"Is it doubled?" asked Haureck.

That is, it doubles in one year, quadruples in two years, eightfold in three years, and sixteen times in four years......

"In the first two years, it is estimated that I can get three or four times the return, but in the future, I can't see it. ”

"Lee, can you count me in?" asked Halik.

Paul also came interested: "Lee, take me one." ”

It's not bad, invest one or two million, and two years later it becomes four hundred to eight million.

"What investment?" asked Jobs, confused.

"You can't really say that, if you invest in it, I'll tell you. ”

Ballmer said, "Lee, you're too domineering, at least say it." ”

They all have surplus money in their hands, including Li Mo's harvest, and last year's dividends, a lot of money.

But Li Mo really can't say it this time, because its size is too small, Li Mo really can't eat alone, but he can't let Bill Gates and them rush in, one is not enough to eat, and the other is a big joke.

"Okay, count me in," Jobs pulled out the five million check and gave it to Li Mo.

"This ......"

"Li, don't worry, I'll let my lawyer sign a contract with your legal counsel tomorrow. ”

Li Mo was a little dumbfounded, didn't you persuade Bill Gates just now?

"Oh well. ”

Steve Jobs joined in, and Microsoft's stock markets, large and small, began to join in the excitement again, raising more than $25 million back and forth.

This is not a small number, if it weren't for Li Mo who made a fortune with them last year, even if they paid dividends, they wouldn't be able to take it out, even if they could, who would unclearly take out the family foundation together and hand it over to Li Mo to operate, although now they believe in Li Mo more.

Li Mo accepted the checks and said, "Everyone, this time, I will not let you down. ”

This is what he wants, first, he can't eat alone, and second, he just makes these people desperately wrap themselves together. Then his funds are even more confusing and confusing, just like Jun Qiyan, they all know that there is a bigger financier behind her, but they can't guess. As for violations, what kind of violations are still talked about in China's stock market, which has long made a group of people a joke of the century.

Li Mo returned to the room, and Wang Yi came back with his father after watching the movie.

On Cigna, Li Mo has always been very good, such as Wang Yi, as long as he stays in the United States for a long time, Li Mo will let Wang Yi accompany his father, even if he pays for the air ticket.

Li Mo called Hao Like aside and whispered a few words.

"It's the ...... to invest in"

"I'd rather not go into the stock market of Japanese real estate and bring the money over, but if I didn't have that income, would I do it?"

"With such a good prospect?"

"Do you remember what I said before? Look at the PC market now, how prosperous the PC market is, how broad its prospects are. ”

"I see, Lee, why can't anyone see it?"

"Hehe," Li Mo pointed to his head.

Halick immediately shut his mouth.

"Some people see it, but they don't really see its value," Limo said. ”

March 13th arrived.

Bill Gates rang the bell for the listing, and many reporters took photos in the back. This excitement has nothing to do with Li Mo, he is shopping with his father.

Hao Lick called: "Li, the opening price is 22 dollars per share." ”

Li Mo was at a loss for a moment, then relieved his doubts and raised by one dollar, probably because he promoted Microsoft's finances to be healthier.

"Act according to the plan," he said on the phone. ”

"Yes. Hao Lick immediately put down the phone.

Nasdaq trading hours are Monday to Friday, winter time is from 10:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and the rest of the day is from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.

Li Mo returned to the hotel at four o'clock, and Bill Gates was having a big party.

He saw Li Mo coming over and said happily: "Li, do you know that our Microsoft stock has sold like crazy. ”

Microsoft's stock has been rising since the market opened, all the way like a crazy wild horse, and only then gradually slowed down when it rose to $30 per share. But it continued to rise, until the end of trading hours, when it rose to $33 per share, raising Microsoft's market capitalization to more than $800 million. (To be continued.) )
