Chapter Seventy-Eight: Meeting with Steve Jobs

At ten o'clock in the morning, Lin Sen arrived at the Pingguo headquarters on time, and Jobs greeted Lin Sen warmly at the door

"Hello Lin, welcome to Pingguo"

"Hello Mr. Steve, it's an honor to be here"

"Please"

Without extra words, Lin Sen and the others came directly to the conference room, while Gao Yuan was led by someone to visit Pingguo. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

"Lin, I'd love to know your original intention of acquiring Pingguo shares."

For Jobs, Lin Sen was not prepared to hide it

"Mr. Steve, I have two purposes, the first is to make money, and the other is that I want to witness the arrival of an epoch-making music product in person."

Pingguo is about to release a new product, which HSBC told Lin Sen, but there is no sample, but Lin Sen knows that it is a music product, Lin Sen has not used it, but it does not prevent him from understanding, since 4 came out, Lin Sen has searched for Pingguo's products, including this music product 1POD.

"It seems that you are very optimistic about this product, to be honest, many people are not optimistic, especially now that we are still affected by the Internet bubble, and this horror incident, so, the stock is still very low, which makes me helpless"

Pingguo's stock price at that time was about $7, and by 2013 it had reached more than 700, that is, Linsen Investment was about 10 years, and then 100 times.

"No one expected this, the bubble makes people have no confidence in many industries, so this is normal, but I am still very optimistic about the computer market, I believe that the personal market, will soon usher in a big explosion period, so I came here to buy Pingguo shares"

"Thank you for your honesty, I know that you will buy 5% voting shares and 5% non-voting shares, I don't know if you will continue to buy shares, you know that if you have too much voting power, it is not a good thing for our management."

They are very afraid of how much voting power Lin Sen has, if Lin Sen interferes with the management policy, then this is bad news for them, after all, Pingguo has just come out of the trough, he is really a little afraid, but it is difficult for him to prevent Lin Sen from acquiring, after all, if Lin Sen has enough money, he can buy more than 30% of Pingguo's shares, so that he can basically control the company, and even elevate him, or let him step down, which is difficult for him to accept.

"Haha, I'm not very interested in managing it, and I'd even be willing to buy all the non-voting shares if I could, after all, they seem to be a little cheaper, but it's hard, you know."

Jobs breathed a sigh of relief, but he still didn't believe in Lin Sen, and he couldn't find the funds to reverse the takeover of Lin Sen, so Lin Sen's attitude was very important.

"In that case, we hope that you will grant us your voting rights, of course I know that this request is a bit excessive."

You mentioned it too much, Lin Sen was speechless.

"This can be considered, but what good can I do?"

The benefits are the most important

"This..."

He's going to think about it.

"Otherwise, in the future, Pingguo's products and the proxy rights in China will all belong to me, so that I will unconditionally support your management, not only voting rights, but even financial support."

That's it, Jobs was dumbfounded, this requirement is too low, you must know that now don't talk about China, even Asia, their products are very few, this is a surprise.

"Thank you very much, we couldn't agree more",

Since both sides agreed, then it was easy to talk next, it was very smooth, Lin Sen successfully became the largest individual shareholder of Pingguo through the Internet bubble and terrorist attacks, but there was no voting right, but it didn't matter.

Jobs also hopes that Lin Sen can expand the equity ratio, what are you kidding, 10% Lin Sen is already frightened, in 13 years, at least 600 US dollars, how can it be increased, Lin Sen is also ready to continue to reduce his holdings during this time, 16 years, it is enough to maintain it at 5%, too much, the US imperialists will definitely not be happy.

At noon, Lin Sen and Jobs had lunch together, and after the meal, Jobs gave a few 1PODs to Lin Sen, and Lin Sen couldn't wait to play with them.

"It's a masterpiece of genius, a masterpiece of God, if this screen were in color, I think it would be better, what do you think?"

"Now the technology of the tiny color screen is not very mature, we also considered it at the time, but then gave up, after all, if there is a problem, then whether Pingguo can withstand this failure, is still unknown, so, we are willing to wait for his technology to mature, this is the way to insurance."

"I agree with your decision, it's good to take the risk once in a while, for the current Pingguo, stability is the first"

"Thank you for your understanding"

"Haha, I'm looking forward to the color screen, maybe, you can go to Japan to see, there seems to be a color screen mobile phone."

Japan has made color screen mobile phones in 2000, but due to the Internet, it seems that it can only be used in Japan, so many people don't know.

"We have also studied this thing, but the restrictions are too large, and the clarity is not enough, which affects the user's perception very much."

Well, since you're so good, I won't say more, just wait for the money to be collected when the time comes.

"Oh, sorry, a bit of a finger-pointer, I hope you won't suggest, I really like this thing, I hope it gets better and better."

"Oh, no, no, thank you for your advice, and we will respect everyone who makes progress for Pingguo."

"Hearing you say this, I have greater confidence in this investment, but unfortunately I am about to return to China, otherwise I am really willing to participate in this conference, although I can't participate, but we bless you on the other side of the ocean, and wish you a complete success."

Lin Sen has been in the United States for almost two months, and if he doesn't go back, the company is about to fry, although Lin Sen sent money back, but because of the incident some time ago, the company was panicked, so he still had to go back to calm people's hearts.

"Thank you very much, I think we will succeed, definitely"

"Yes, definitely"

Lin Sen talked to him about some things about the amount of sinicization,Lin Sen hopes that 1pod can be sinicized,So that they can sell it to China,Let more people use this product,Of course, the price will only be a little more expensive than the United States,After all, it's still the freight,Lin Sen still has to make a little money,As for how to sell,Lin Sen has thought about opening a store,But every city opens,It's a bit much,So,He's going to open a few in first-tier cities to test the water。

Lin Sen went back, it happened to be eleven, a small long holiday, the company happened to be on holiday, Lin Sen stayed in Hong Kong for two days, and then all the way from Shenzhen and Hong Kong, to Hangzhou, and then to Beijing, to the capital is almost to the 7th.
