Chapter 375: Who Placed Whom

Just after the early morning of the evening of the 25th, Lu Hao received a call from the super big-mouthed Trump, and Bill Gates bought 7,500 shares of Apple shares held by him, Warren Buffett and Morgan Jenner at more than double the price, and acquired 5% of the shares held by Sequoia Capital for $1.7 billion.

Trump's voice said gratefully, "Thank you, Harry, for saving me......"

"We're friends, and I don't want to see my friends worry about money!" Lu Hao snapped Trump's words and said.

"Lu Hao, you are my forever friend, and I will always look forward to you." Trump choked up when he called out the word friend, but his tone became affirmative when he said it.

Lu Hao said "um", did not answer, some words do not need to be said, Lu Hao knows very well that if a sentimental person like Trump is grateful to you, he will pour out his heart and lungs, and if he hates you, he will make no secret of it.

Trump is already on Lu Hao's list, Lu Hao doesn't need him to do anything for himself, he just needs to have a mouth that sprays everywhere, and in the future, he will have himself as a backstage for him, and no one can move him no matter how he wants to spray.

"After their deal is completed, Apple will be stable, and everything will be left to Jobs from now on." Putting down the phone, Lu Hao hugged Judy and said.

Judy arched into Lu Hao's arms, hugged him tightly and said, "Jobs is a very capable person, but he has extreme character flaws. Judy said worriedly, "I have no doubt that he will burn all the huge amount of cash you left for Apple." ”

Lu Hao smiled, but he knew that when Steve Jobs served as Apple's president for the second time in his previous life, his predecessor left him a huge amount of $3.3 billion in cash, and it was this $3.3 billion that made him successful.

Now I have to set aside so much cash for Apple, and no more, no less, exactly $3.3 billion. Apple cleared the backlog of products for $1.5 billion in cash, and if it wants to give Jobs another $1.8 billion in cash, it will have to sell factories and assets.

Thinking that Apple will become the world's largest company in terms of market capitalization in the future, with $250 billion in cash reserves, Lu Hao couldn't help but be happy, and he didn't know how shocked these people who sold Apple's shares would be many years later.

Bill Gates is also worthy of being the richest man in the world for 20 consecutive years, his unique vision is indeed incomparable to others, and he is not much inferior to Buffett in the field of investment.

"Lu Hao!" Judy raised her voice and called him again, Lu Hao was in a trance, looking at her with a worried face, Lu Hao laughed, hugged her and kissed her a few times, "I thought of a happy thing, so I was a little distracted, I think we should announce a major decision, give Apple a big gift, so that the person who sold the shares will regret it immediately after being happy." ”

Judy threw away the pillow under Lu Hao's head and lay flat in his arms, one leg wrapped around his body, gently rubbing it, which would make her excited.

Judy has a very special point, when she is excited, she will be extra organized and decisive in thinking about things, whenever she is irritated by work, as long as Lu Hao pesters her and interrupts her, she will make the most correct decision as quickly as possible every time, so that she can end her work quickly.

"Trump, Warren Buffett, and Morgan Jenner own 7.5 percent of the shares, Sequoia Capital holds 5 percent of the shares, and Bill Gates himself holds 7 percent of the shares.

He spent $3 billion to acquire 7.5 percent of the shares held by Trump, Warren Buffett, and Morgan Jenner, $1.7 billion for 5 percent of Sequoia Capital, and $800 million for his own 7 percent of the shares, which means that he paid $5.5 billion to get only 19.5 percent of Apple's shares. ”

Lu Hao also calculated in his mind and said, "Yes, that's the case...... There is no way to give him a cheap share, and Apple's own system is inseparable from Microsoft's support, and it also needs to rely on Microsoft's influence on Intel. ”

Judy smiled and said, "It's not cheap, if it is announced to the public, Bill Gates spent 5.5 billion US dollars in exchange for only 19.5% of Apple's shares, I believe it will surprise the entire Wall Street." ”

After a pause, Judy couldn't help but sneer for a while, and then said, "Your little stone is gold, and you are going to be worshiped by Wall Street again." ”

Lu Hao also smiled and said, "Then add a fire to Wall Street and announce that Apple will re-list on January 1, and I will sell 50 million shares of Apple stock at a price of $36 a share, and all the funds recovered will be used to acquire Apple's factories and other assets." ”

Judy's eyes lit up, and she said excitedly, "In this way, even all the burdens that drag Apple down have been solved, and Apple, which has a huge asset of $3.3 billion in its hands, will set off and travel lightly, then Apple's total market value of $36 billion is not high, and it is only six or seven times the price-to-book ratio." ”

Lu Hao turned his body sideways, and with a slight pull, Judy pressed on his body, "Yes, I will also let Xiaomi Technology sign a long-term product OEM agreement with Apple, and let Apple use all the patented technologies of Xiaomi Technology for free." ”

Judy, who was familiar with Lu Hao like a roundworm in his stomach, kissed Lu Hao's broad and firm chest, and said, "I understand your plan, it turns out that you don't want to build Xiaomi into the top electronic brand, you are building Apple, and Xiaomi is only a mid-range brand."

If my expectations are correct, Xiaomi will also use Apple's operating system in the future, and you will create a closed ecosystem that firmly controls the high-end market, seizes the mid-range market, and abandons the low-end market! ”

Lu Hao lifted Judy's body up, and said face to face with her, "You guessed it right, I won't do anything to monopolize the market, but I will monopolize the profits of the market, and I will let Apple and Xiaomi put 70% of the world's PC profits into their own pockets." ”

Judy kissed Lu Hao and said, "Now Bill Gates is putting you in this way, which you have predicted a long time ago, but he would not have thought that you have quietly placed him together, and you want to avenge Apple!" You're going to kill Microsoft! ”

In 1985, John Scully, then Apple's CEO, signed Apple's worst contract in history and picked up one of the most powerful Microsofts, so Lu Hao also wanted Bill Gates to taste how bitter it was to sign the worst contract in Microsoft's history. He revoked $300 million in royalties in exchange for a $300 billion market. (To be continued.) )
