"Why Apple?" Gates asked almost reflexively, do you still look down on your own stocks?

"Of course you can if you want," Zhang Bin said with a shrug, saying that he was sure that Gates would not give him his shares. [Full text reading]

Apple's stock is just right, and it is about to multiply several times, and this is a good opportunity.

He knew that Microsoft had hundreds of millions of dollars in Apple stock and had deep technical cooperation with it.

Gates pondered for a long time, "Are you sure that the loopholes in your hands have been tested?" ”

"If I'm not sure, will I just ask? When the time comes, if one of them is fake, I will return half of the money, and what if I find out that half of the money is still half? Zhang Bin said confidently.

Gates stood up, paced back and forth in the office, and dialed a phone call.

After a while, the company's lawyer walked in.

With the contract, Gates was placed directly in front of Zhang Bin.

"20 million in cash, 30 million in stock, Apple".

Zhang Bin took a look, in fact, the contract is only two or three pages, which is very simple.

Zhang Bin signed his name, printed his handprint, and then handed Gates the paper he had prepared for the loophole, written in Chinese, but he believed it was not a problem.

Gates went out for a while and came back soon, it seems that someone went to inspect it, and Zhang Bin put the contract away.

It was almost noon, and before I knew it, I had more than two hours of conversation.

"If you don't mind, how about having a meal at the company at noon?" Gates invited with a smile.

"Of course", Zhang Bin replied, being able to have a meal with the richest man in the world is something that he would never have imagined in his previous life.

The two had just gone out, but they were greeted by a person.

"Hi Steve," Gates said in greeting.

The person who came was none other than Microsoft's CEO, Steve Brown. Ballmer.

Steve glanced at Zhang Bin, "You want to go out?" ”

"I'm going to dine with the guests," Gates said, "are you okay?" ”

"Joe called just now and wanted to meet you, I'll come back to you later", Steve greeted Zhang Bin in a friendly manner, and then turned to leave.

As soon as Steve left, Zhang Bin received a call from Harlan.

On the phone, Harlan said that the money had arrived, and asked Zhang Bin if he had gone to get the contract.

Of course, if Zhang Bin went to get the contract, the housekeeper would definitely contact him, and if he didn't get it, it means that he didn't get it.

He made this call just to inquire.

Zhang Bin said that he is now in Washington, and he will not get it until two days later, and thanked Harlan for his financial support.

"You're in Washington, that's just right, come to my house for lunch," Harlan heard that Zhang Bin was in Washington, and immediately warmly invited.

"Mr. Gates and I are about to go to lunch, we may be sorry", Zhang Bin didn't really want to participate in the family dinner, as for saying Gates, he just said casually, and didn't mean anything.

"Oh, is it Bill? Give him the phone," Harlan said with some surprise.

Zhang Bin was stunned for a moment and handed the phone to Bill. Gates.

"Mr. Harlan's call, he asked you to answer it," Zhang Bin said.

"Hey, Harran", Bill seemed pleased to hear that it was Harran, and with a rare hint of respect in his tone.

After a few words, Gates hung up the phone and glanced at Zhang Bin in surprise, "Do you know Mr. Harlan?" ”

"I have 20% of Harlae's shares," Zhang Bin said, "You know him?" ”

Gates smiled, "Of course."

However, Gates did not explain, which made Zhang Bin a little itchy, Gates seems to have a good relationship with Mr. Harlan.

"Let's go, Mr. Harlan's luncheon, it's a rarity," Gates said as he went downstairs with Zhang Bin.

Gates drove, Zhang Bin and they took the car and went to the Gates' house in the suburbs of Washington State.

"Where is this?" Zhang Bin looked at a villa outside, and the people in the courtyard didn't seem to have Mr. Harlan.

"My family," Gates smiled, getting out of the car.

Zhang Bin heard that it was Bill Gates's home, and he quickly got out of the car.

An older-looking woman walked out with three children, two boys and one girl.

"Hey, Dad", the two older boys hugged Gates, then Gates picked up his little daughter Adele and kissed him, and finally kissed his wife

Zhang Bin knew that this should be Gates' wife Melinda and his three children.

After meeting with the family, Gates introduced Zhang Bin, and then Melinda drove with her three children, and Gates took Zhang Bin to Mr. Harlan's home in Washington.

In the car, Gates talked about his relationship with Harlan.

Gates and Melinda's first meeting was a beautiful encounter.

Melinda worked as an intern at IBM after graduating from university, and later the company's director learned that she was going to Microsoft for an interview and told her that there was a bigger stage and space there, and you could try it.

So Melinda moved to Microsoft and soon became a marketing manager at the age of 22.

But there are people full of special materials, they are all so smart, so talented, and this puts a lot of pressure on Melinda, she thinks these people are vitriol, even the boss, so she is ready to leave Microsoft.

Change always comes inadvertently, and it was at this time that the company sent her on a business trip to New York. Gates sat together.

"I thought she was very beautiful, and I think it was her beauty that attracted me," Gates said with a smile.

When Gates officially pursued Melinda, Melinda was only a marketing manager at Microsoft, and Gates was the company's chairman and CEO.

Speaking of this, Gates smiled: "You know, she was really difficult to handle at that time, and she rejected me many times."

Later, Melinda began to accept Gates because of Mr. Harlan, Mr. Harlan and Melinda's father, Ray Brown. Frankie was a very good friend, and during the visit together, Harlan learned about it.

Mr. Harlan and Gates were not familiar with each other at the time, but he admired Gates very much, so he persuaded Melinda to try to accept and understand each other.

Later, Melinda was impressed by Gates' sincerity and finally decided to agree to date him.

In '94, the two got married on the island of Hawaii, when Gates took over the entire island, including flights and all hotels.

"One question, did you discover all these vulnerabilities yourself?" Gates suddenly asked after telling his story.

"I don't like computers," Zhang Bin said with a smile, saying that he didn't do it himself.

Gates nodded, it seems that there is a powerful person behind this person, and Gates is already thinking about whether to inquire about it and dig it up to work for himself.
