Chapter 177: Divergence

This number is simply impossible to take away the decision-making power of the company, but he forgets that Microsoft is not Bill Gates's Microsoft alone, there is another shareholder, Paul? Allan.

Microsoft, from the beginning, to Lin Yu's rebirth, was owned by Bill Gates and Paul Allen, even if Paul Allen later sold part of Microsoft's shares, Allen is still the second largest shareholder of Microsoft, and the two have a deep relationship with Microsoft.

“49?” Bill Gates frowned and said, "Sir, I never said that I was going to sell the company's shares, I wonder if you misunderstood." ”

Hearing Bill Gates's words, Clyde frowned slightly, he didn't expect this bone to be so hard to gnaw, he had already let it go to 49%, this person still bites his mouth, is it really only thirty percent?

"Mr. Bill Gates, I don't think your company wants to go bankrupt due to a lack of funds, right?" Despite all the thoughts in his heart, Clyde still said with a smile on his face.

"It doesn't seem to be a matter of irritability, I believe our company can get out of the predicament." Bill Gates said with a frown.

"No, no, Mr. Bill Gates, don't you want to see Microsoft take off sooner? I believe that with my injection of funds, your company wants to research what products can. Clyde said, shaking his head.

Bill Gates frowned, obviously, what the other party said he was tempted, indeed, the current Microsoft is very short of money, especially at the critical moment of product development, especially the current system version windows1.0, it is almost the end of the time, although I am confident that I will have a good result, but I am confident that it is not a market sales after all, some of the company's products are also very confident, but in fact, they have failed, yes, they have failed. Sometimes I can't believe that this is true, and the software and systems that seem good to me are not cared for, and Bill Gates sometimes thinks about it.

Thinking of this, Bill Gates was wondering if he really needed to inject a sum of money, so that even if he lost money, he would have funds to continue to develop, and if he waited until the product failed to introduce funds, the price would undoubtedly be much smaller.

After thinking about it carefully, Bill Gates said, "Well, sir, I sold 15 percent of the shares, what do you think?" ”

"No, Mr. Bill Gates, what I want is less than 40 percent of the shares." Jokes, if it's really fifteen percent, then he Clyde can't hold his head up in front of the boss.

"Sir, you are a little strongman's difficulty, you must know that the shares in my hands are only more than half, and I will be listed in the future, so my shares will inevitably decrease, and you will have to take 40% of the shares at this time, which is inevitably a little too much appetite." Bill Gates said angrily.

Indeed, after Paul Allen fell ill and left Microsoft, although Bill Gates had a lot of shares, you must know that Paul Allen left 15% of the shares in his hands, so if you calculate it, Bill Gates's shares are only about 80%, and Clyde will have 40% at once, how can this not make Bill Gates angry.

If Bill Gates sells 40% of his shares, then Microsoft is not his, and he can be regarded as a shareholder at most. It wasn't what he wanted.

At all times, Microsoft has to be its own, this is what Bill Gates really thinks.

"What do you mean, sir?" Seeing that his proposal was rejected again, Clyde asked helplessly.

"Thirty percent." Bill Gates thought for a moment and said.

Saying that 30% was decided after careful consideration by Bill Gates, first, 30% of the shares will not have any impact on his future control of the company, at least more than 40% of the shares of his friends, even if he goes public in the future, he will have more shares than the other party, and he is still the largest shareholder of the company.

Clyde frowned, could it really only be thirty percent?

Did the boss know before that Bill Gates would only sell 30 percent of the shares? If that's the case, then the boss is terrible.

But thinking of his young boss, Clyde's eyes lit up, and he stood up and said, "Mr. Bill Gates, I don't know if I can make a call, I want my boss to report what you said." ”

Bill Gates frowned when he heard this, but he also nodded in agreement.

Clyde didn't see Bill Gates' expression, in fact, even if he did, he wouldn't care.

Seeing Bill Gates nodding, Clyde walked out of the room and dialed Lin Yu's phone, at this time Lin Yu was teaching Evra to cook Chinese food, Evra was learning little by little under Lin Yu's command, but the cut out dishes made Lin Yu cry and laugh, what is cooking, this is simply making pig food.

Lin Yugang wanted to tease her twice, but when he heard his phone ringing, he hurriedly returned to the living room to pick it up.

"Hey, I'm Lin Yu."

"Boss, it's me. Clyde. Clyde said on the other end of the phone.

"Oh, Clyde, didn't you fly to Raymond City? How? Did you encounter any difficulties? Lin Yu asked with a smile.

"Boss, that's right, I'm at Microsoft right now, and I've just had some disagreements with Bill Gates about the acquisition of shares, and I'm calling to ask for your opinion." Clyde explained it briefly.

"How many shares does Bill Gates sell?" Lin Yu asked.

"He just wants to sell 100 to 30 percent of the shares, and he doesn't add any more to it, even if I say anything." Clyde said.

"Why?" Lin Yu wondered.

"Boss, if we really buy 40 percent of Microsoft's shares, then Microsoft will change hands." Clyde said with a smile.

"Oh, I see." Lin Yu suddenly realized.

Speaking of which, it's still a question of Microsoft's last name.

Since this is the problem, then it will be easy to solve, after thinking about it, Lin Yu said to Clyde on the other end of the phone: "Clyde, when you talk about it later, you will say, we only buy 30% of Microsoft's shares, and we have decision-making power for these 30%, in addition, we will buy another 10% of the shares, and we don't want decision-making power for these 10% shares, of course, it would be better if you could talk about better shares." Keep in mind that we can do without decision-making power, just dividends. ”

"Boss, what's the use of us buying this company?"
