"Well, you think about it."

Seeing that Zhang Ning seemed to be refusing, Buffett said again, "Don't be in a hurry to answer me first, although what I said today is indeed something that you expected." Or, as you Harvard students do, the path I've given you is completely beyond what you have in mind for your future. However, I'm sure that if you choose to invest, your achievements in the future will definitely be better than mine. ”

It's just that Zhang Ning still said, "I'm sorry, I really don't have much interest in investing." What I like is computers, what I like is the Internet. ”

"Oh my God, classmate Zhang Ning, you really don't think about it?"

"I'm sorry, Mr. Buffett, although I know it's rude for me to refuse."

"You ......"

Warren Buffett seemed to be a little angry, and was about to say it, when suddenly he seemed to figure it out.

"Forget it, you can't force it, you'll change your mind later."

"Thank you, Mr. Buffett."

"You don't need to thank me, if you thank me, you will agree to come to our company, I promise, I can teach you all my decades of investment experience."

Zhang Ning didn't answer this time, but smiled helplessly.

Buffett saw what Zhang Ning meant, "Alas, you little guy, do you know how many people want to be my students?" Now that the opportunity has come, you don't cherish it. Do you know how much lunch will cost this time? ”

Zhang Ning looked at it, and there were only two cups of coffee on the table, as well as a few side dishes.

In addition, this hotel is not necessarily very high-end, Zhang Ning estimated that it would be 100 US dollars at most.

"About $100."

This is Zhang Ning's answer.

It's just that Buffett shook his head with laughter, "Wrong, it's just $100." ”

"Not $100?"

Zhang Ning looked at the food on the table again, could it be that he was blind.

However, after reconfirming, Zhang Ning still felt that it was $100 at most.

"Okay, don't look at it, I'll tell you that this lunch will cost $1 million."

"$1,000,000."

Zhang Ning was petrified in an instant.

There is no mistake.

$1,000,000.

Is it possible that these foods are made of gold, and even if they are made of gold, they don't need $1 million.

As he spoke, Zhang Ning stared at the food on the table again, but no matter how he looked at it, these foods were still very ordinary.

How could this cost $1 million?

"Mr. Buffett, is this hotel a legendary black shop?"

"How is that possible?"

Warren Buffett laughed and shook his head, "In terms of the price of food, it's true that this table is only worth about $100." However, I'm talking about lunch this time, and you should know that lunch is not only about the food, but also about the people who eat it. ”

"I see."

Zhang Ning blurted out, "This is Buffett's lunch." ”

"Oh my God, Mr. Buffett, you are ......"

Zhang Ning was already incoherent.

If you talk about the most expensive lunch in the world, it is undoubtedly Warren Buffett's lunch.

The so-called Buffett's lunch, he is not an ordinary lunch.

In 1995, Warren Buffett once held an event where he could have lunch with one person.

As a result, the event was unprecedentedly popular, with hundreds of thousands of people signing up.

After 2000, Warren Buffett changed the rules of this activity.

From the original free lunch with yourself, to the right to auction and eat with yourself.

At the same time, Buffett also emphasized that during lunch, he can talk about any topic with the person he photographed, including his investment experience.

As a result, in 2001, the price of Buffett's lunch was auctioned for $500,000.

In 2002, it doubled again to $1 million.

2003 has not yet begun, but anyone can predict that it will definitely not be under $1 million.

Later, in 2009, Zhao Danyang, known as the godfather of China's private equity, won the opportunity to have lunch with Warren Buffett at a price of more than $3 million. At that lunch, Warren Buffett publicly recommended a company to everyone, BYD, and as a result, BYD directly entered the automotive field from the battery charging business and gained a firm foothold in the automotive field.

Zhang Ning never expected it.

The world's most famous Buffett's lunch actually fell into his own hands.

However, Zhang Ning still subconsciously asked, "This, Mr. Buffett, this lunch of yours is just an ordinary lunch." ”

"No, today is the day Buffett's luncheon begins. In other words, the 2003 Buffett Lunch Event has been won by you, and there will be no Buffett Lunch this year, if you still want to, then next year, that is, 2004. ”

Zhang Ning petrified again.

After a long while, Zhang Ning came to his senses, "I really didn't expect that, Mr. Buffett, you are such a person with character." ”

"Hahaha."

Warren Buffett laughed, "Actually, it's nothing, for others, having lunch with me is really worth $1 million." But for me, it's just a lunch. Although, I don't deny it, the value of my lunch is definitely above $1 million. Even, even higher. ”

"I believe it too."

Zhang Ning nodded affirmatively.

"Alright, little one, that's all for lunch this time, I hope it will help you a little. I also hope that when you return, you will be able to change your mind, and we at Berkshire will welcome you at any time. ”

"Thank you."

"By the way, Mr. Buffett, there's something I want to ask you."

Seeing Buffett standing up, Zhang Ning hurriedly asked.

"What's the matter, you can tell me."

"I saw your name in the list of members of the Phoenix Club, may I ask, Mr. Buffett, are you also a member of the Phoenix Club?"

"Yes, what do you want to say?"

"I have a friend named Bruce who once offended the club's Quincy in order to help me. I feel that Quincy may be bad for Bruce, and I wonder if Mr. Buffett can point me out. ”

"This, I can't do anything about it."

Warren Buffett beached, "The Phoenix Club is far more powerful than you think, although I am a member of the Phoenix Club. However, in the whole club, my energy cannot affect everyone. At most, they will give me some face, but there is no way I can meddle in the affairs of the Phoenix Club, it will not benefit me. ”

"I'm sorry, I was abrupt."

"Alright, boy, come on."

Warren Buffett picked up his crutches and walked slowly downstairs.

"Zhang Ning, you really don't think about it?"

As he was about to descend the stairs, Buffett turned his head again, his eyes full of anticipation.

It's just that Zhang Ning still shook his head, "I'm sorry." ”

If it was a previous life, I'm afraid Zhang Ning wouldn't have been able to find such an opportunity with a lantern.

It's just that now after being reborn, Zhang Ning has his own path to take.

Although following Warren Buffett is also a very successful path for others. Even, Warren Buffett's Berkshire still has tens or even tens of trillions of dollar assets. If Buffett's company can be inherited in the future, it is simply an order, and the global economy must turn.

It's just that Zhang Ning likes the Internet, and what he wants to build is an Internet empire.

No matter how good the prospect of investing in this area is, it is different from the path he wants to take, Zhang Ning can only refuse.

"Well, lad, you're strong-willed, and I didn't mistake you. I'll do you a little favor, although I won't interfere in the Phoenix Club, but there are people who have a lot of weight in the Phoenix Club. Moreover, he is a young man like you, and if you have access to him, perhaps, he can help you. ”

"Who is this man?"

"Hussein, Obama."

……

"Obama."

Looking carefully at the information about Obama, Zhang Ning became interested in this person.

That's right, this Obama is the future US President Barack Obama.

At the same time, he was also the first black president of the United States in later generations.

His name, in later generations, was almost a symbol of American power.

Unexpectedly, this person is actually in the Phoenix Club.

In this way, there are some heavyweight names in the list of clubs I saw before, which seem to be hidden.

It doesn't matter, though.

What matters is how you approach Obama, or rather, how you can get Obama to do you a favor.

Looking at the information, Obama is currently a senator from the US state of Illinois.

As one of the top responsible candidates of the Democratic Party in the United States, Obama undoubtedly has the ability to help him with this small favor.

At present, elections for members of the US House of Representatives have begun, and the elections are taking part, including Robek, Ava, Obama......

A piece of news from the political circles in the United States attracted Zhang Ning's attention.

Memories of a past life, Obama should not have been elected this year.

The reason is that Obama is too young, and the other is that Obama has been in politics for too short a time.

In this way, I can help Obama a little.

……

Harvard University Hall.

As a well-known hallmark of Harvard, Harvard University Hall is not only used on Harvard, but also for performances at important events in other countries. For example, during the presidential election, many presidential candidates often go to Harvard to give a speech, hoping to use Harvard's influence to increase their votes.

On this day, Obama, a rising star of the Democratic Party in the United States, also came to Harvard University Hall.

Obama recently planned to run for the U.S. House of Representatives, which is not as powerful as the president and not as sensational as the presidential election. However, the US House of Representatives, as one of the two highest US chambers, is already the highest authority in the United States.

Although Obama did not come this time to canvass for himself.

He just said that he was here to talk to Harvard students as a senior, but Zhang Ning knew that this was just an excuse.

The real purpose, Obama is also here to canvass for votes.

After all, these students at Harvard are the elite of the elite, and one person can influence at least 100 people, 1,000 people.

"When I became a Illinois legislator, I often thought about my college career. That's right, I was just like everyone back then. Playing basketball on campus, reading books in the library, and of course, skipping classes or something......"

Obama is funny and humorous, only in his early 40s, very young, so that many students have a good image of Obama.

In addition, Obama was successfully elected as a state legislator as a black man, which made countless Harvard students awe-inspired.
