After a while, the whole Apple company knew that the wonder boy from ICQ came to his company, and many people looked into the office of the gang leader Qiao, and everyone was very curious, what kind of magic did this magic boy from China have, and he could create such a magical little thing?

Qiao Gang Leader was also secretly looking at Lin Zheng, although he had long known that Lin Zheng was not very old, but before that, the two had no intersection, he really didn't know what Lin Zheng was like, at this moment, looking at Lin Zheng in front of him, Qiao Gang Leader couldn't help but sigh in his heart: How young. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Looking at Lin Zheng in front of him, Gang Leader Qiao couldn't help but think of himself back then, who had just founded Apple back then, and was as high-spirited as Lin Zheng today, as if conquering the world was just around the corner...... He would never admit in his heart that Lin Zheng in front of him seemed to be a little more energetic than himself.

Everyone is a smart person, there is no need to engage in those twists and turns, Lin Zheng said frankly: "Mr. Jobs, Mr. Angie Bo conveyed to me what you meant, just like you think, Lianchuang Technology is indeed very interested in the shares of ARM held by Apple, but we do not agree with the conditions you offered, ARM's shares are not worth so much money." ”

ARM still has about 6 months to go public, judging from the current situation, the 43 ARM shares held by Apple are worth a little more than 300 million US dollars at most, and Jobs asks for 200 million US dollars plus 10 ICQ shares, which is indeed too ruthless, 10 ICQ company shares, it is very clear to what extent ICQ will rise in the future, and it will be stupid to give so much money to Apple.

"Mr. Lin, with all due respect, I don't agree with your words," Jobs dared to offer such a condition, of course, he was confident, and faced Lin Zheng's somewhat aggressive gaze, and said calmly: "That's right, if it is acquired by a department like Motorola, Texas Instruments or Siemens Semiconductor, these 43 ARM shares are indeed not worth so much money, but Mr. Lin, I dare to say so, ARM is the IC design company with the highest ability that your company can acquire, and in this regard, Apple's asking price is not expensive, Besides, Apple is not in a hurry, ARM is about to go public, if your company feels that Apple's conditions are too much, we can wait until next year after ARM goes public and slowly sell off the shares in hand. ”

Lin Zheng also smiled when he heard it: "Mr. Jobs, with all due respect, the situation you said is only the most ideal situation, ARM wants to go public, IPO is the most important, if the result of the IPO is not satisfactory or even fails, the original established listing plan will also be greatly affected, maybe it will not be successful for a whole year next year, I believe you understand the risk of listing better than me." If the steps to go public on ARM really go as smoothly as you say, you wouldn't have decided to sell your ARM shares, just hold on to it and wait for ARM to go public next year, wouldn't you? ”

After a brief pause, Lin Zheng said softly as if he had inadvertently said: "Mr. Jobs, I'm curious, Apple's financial situation is not optimistic now, and the bank should be very worried about lending to Apple, if it can't raise a fund quickly, how long can Apple's current situation last?" ”

Lin Zheng's words immediately revealed the current problems faced by Apple: That's right, ARM is the strongest IC design company that Lianchuang Technology can acquire at present, it seems that as long as you Apple offers, no matter how outrageous the price is, we can only admit it, Apple can put on a proud posture of "love to buy, not to buy", but if you Apple really think that we can only let you knead, then it is a big mistake. The situation faced by your Apple is much worse than the situation faced by our Lianchuang Technology, and the big deal of Lianchuang Technology is that the acquisition is not successful, but if Apple does not have this money, it will face the problem of whether it can continue to survive.

This guy is really not simple!

Now that everyone has figured out the hole cards of both sides, there is no point in trying it out, taking a deep breath, Jobs made his own conditions: "In the next 1 year, Lianchuang Technology will pay Apple 200 million US dollars, plus 8 ICQ shares." ”

Lin Zheng said without hesitation: "In the next two years, Lianchuang Technology will pay $200 million to Apple in four times, and ICQ can transfer 8 shares to Apple, but Apple must take 12 shares in exchange!" ”

"It can't be!" Hearing Lin Zheng's conditions, Jobs stood up with a hula: "You are blackmailing!" ”

"Really?" Lin Zheng chuckled lightly and asked indifferently, "Mr. Jobs, ICQ now has 120 million users around the world, as long as ICQ is listed, the market value can easily exceed $2 billion, and the shares of 8 can be worth at least $160 million, and I believe that at most one year, the value of this share will exceed 250 million, believe me, I have a series of development strategies for ICQ, and I can guarantee that the value of ICQ will at least quadruple in a year, but can you tell me, what is Apple's market capitalization now? ”

"......" Jobs was dumbfounded.

Lin Zheng is not wrong at all, now Apple stock has become a famous junk stock in the US stock market, the value of Apple has now fallen below $1 billion, almost becoming the laughing stock of Silicon Valley, in terms of actual value, the value of 8 ICQ shares is definitely more than 12 Apple shares, and even Jobs himself has to admit in his heart that in the long run, ICQ shares are indeed more worth holding than Apple's stocks, but this is a little too long for others to destroy their own prestige, Comrade Lao Qiao could only say lightly: "Mr. Lin, this is just your own speculation. ”

"So, we can't come to an agreement?" After pondering for a moment, Lin Zheng looked up at Jobs and asked lightly.

Comrade Lao Qiao's heart began to pound, but his dignity made him absolutely unwilling to give in at this time, and said indifferently: "I also regret it, but the differences between our two sides on some issues are too great, and it seems that it is indeed difficult to reach an agreement on this matter." ”

"Then I can only say: 'This is really a pity'," Hearing Qiao's words, Lin Zheng shook his head regretfully, stood up, and stretched out his hand to Qiao's helpmaster: "Mr. Jobs, thank you for your hospitality, the apple coffee is delicious, and the apple dessert tastes good, but I sincerely hope that you can carefully consider my suggestion." ”

This guy, are you going to leave? Or do you want to get away with it? Lin Zheng's indifferent attitude made Jobs a little uncertain: of course he refused to let Lin Zheng go just like that, although Lin Zheng's words still left a back door for future talks, but Jobs knew very well that if today's talks did not come out with a result, the future negotiations would be troublesome, no matter who contacted whom first, they would inevitably become the disadvantaged party in the future......

Thinking quickly about all kinds of possibilities in his heart, Comrade Lao Qiao's reaction was not slow at all, and he knew very well that the more he was at this time, the more patient he was with an entrepreneur in the school, while shaking hands with Lin Zheng and me, and at the same time said quietly: "Is it?" Thank you for your compliment, and I hope Mr. Lin will come to Apple again in the future, and I believe that the dessert and coffee will taste better at that time. ”

Hinting at me in this way? Lin Zheng smiled: "Then, Mr. Jobs, goodbye." ”

"Goodbye, I'll send you ......"

Jobs said this, but looking at Lin Zheng's back, he was silently counting in his heart: 3, 2......

At the same time, Lin Zheng's heart was also silently counting: 5, 4, 3......

Before Lin Zheng counted to 2, Jobs, who was about to walk to the door of his office with Lin Zheng, finally couldn't help but speak: "Mr. Lin, I think, we can talk again......"

He didn't dare to gamble anymore, now Apple is facing the situation is too severe, in the case of banks are unwilling to lend to Apple, selling the shares of ARM held by Apple has become the best way for Apple to raise funds, and after selling ARM's shares, holding ICQ's shares is undoubtedly one of the best investment channels.

Lin Zheng's heart finally let go, and the fist that had been secretly clenched was finally released, and he turned around and smiled at Jobs: "Of course, it's my honor......

…………………………………………

The next day, Apple published a notice on its website, saying that Apple held its own shares in the famous British IC design company: ARM 43 plus 10 Apple shares, in exchange for ICQ 200 million US dollars plus 10 ICQ shares preliminary agreement, this share swap, but also proved that the two equally great companies will work together to face the challenges of the new era......

As soon as this statement on Apple's official website came out, the whole world suddenly boiled, and the people in China were excited about the strength of their country. This shows that we are really good! All kinds of domestic media were suddenly as excited as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, which is needless to say.

Compared with the situation in the domestic media, which has almost turned the world upside down, the voices of the American IT circles, media circles, and financial circles can't help but have a little more sour taste: in their view, Lianchuang Technology's action of attacking from all sides is clearly the most favorable evidence of a brand-new "China threat theory", and for a while, the "China threat theory" is suddenly becoming more and more popular...... r1152
