With Tim. Patterson's negotiations were smoother, but with Bill. Gates and Paul. Allen's negotiations were tough. Some people say that most of the successful people in the world are paranoid, and Yang Xia thinks so.

Many successful people seem to face the world with a smile and seem to be very talkative, but when they are facing the public, when they are acting, when it comes to their interests, their paranoia comes out.

Yang Xia almost took it one step at a time, weakening Bill's stubborn resistance little by little.

Bill was first skeptical of Hantang's investment in Microsoft. There are so many software companies in Seattle, and there are many more in Silicon Valley in San Francisco, San Francisco, so why don't you invest in me?

Yang Xia had to affirm that he had established a Hantang software company in Seattle, and showed Bill and the others the relevant licenses issued by the United States; Because my company is in Seattle, in order to facilitate contact, it is naturally not suitable to go to Silicon Valley to find investment partners.

If you have your own software company, why invest in Microsoft?

Big Brother Bill, can a software company do all the software engineering? Hantang Software has specific mission goals, and as a venture capital, it is natural to find more companies to invest in.

Then why did you find me?

Isn't this fate? Your eldest brother Bill came out to start his own business before graduating from Harvard, and I Yang Xia was in the first year of the University of Hong Kong at this time, didn't he also come out to start a business, it was your experience that made me interested in you, and after conducting research on Microsoft, I decided to invest in Bill's company.

Oh, Mr. Yang, you also came out to fend for yourself while you were in college? I have to say. The reason Yang Xia found is very powerful, two people with similar experiences or the same experience, it is easy to talk about together.

Because of such a common topic, in the end, the two bigwigs of Microsoft agreed to accept the capital injection from Hantang Investment.

However, on the issue of the investment quota and the proportion of Han and Tang, it once again fell into a tug-of-war negotiation.

Microsoft is really a small company at this time, with net assets (including equipment) of only 100,000 meters, no more than seven or eight people, and half of them are part-time. Typical grass platform team. A company that may disappear at the slightest storm.

Among the many small software companies, Microsoft at this time can only be said to be barely surviving, trying to make ends meet. The reason why Microsoft insists on it, the reason why thousands of other software companies insist on it. Polarly similar to the North Drift. A certain person in the north drift was taken a fancy by a certain director and a certain crew. began to develop and become famous, and became a myth of the times. As a result, more people joined the ranks of North Drift.

However, except for a few outbreaks, most of them are playing tricks in the circle and selling coolies, and so is Microsoft. In 1980, Microsoft was favored by IBM, which was equivalent to the first time that Microsoft met a big man, met a nobleman, and it was a sign that it was about to develop. Of course, IBM hasn't come to the door yet.

Initially, Yang Xia said an investment plan, investing 1 million meters to obtain 51% of Microsoft's equity.

This plan was immediately opposed by both Bill and Paul, on the grounds that they had to take control.

Okay, let me give way, Hantang International accounts for 49%, okay, in this way, the two of you already have absolute control?

In this way, it still doesn't work, because we are 51% of the two talents, and your Hantang investment side accounts for 49%, this, when encountering major events, the equity power in your hands is very weak.

So, how much is appropriate? Bill and Paul let Yang Xia and Liu Yuesheng avoid for half an hour, and finally they came up with a plan: Hantang International will invest 1 million meters of knives and hold a maximum of 33% of Microsoft's shares, but Hantang Investment must make three guarantees: first, Hantang Investment must maintain a temporary loan limit of 1 million meters of money to Microsoft in case of emergency; Second, except for financial matters, Hantang Investment shall not interfere with Microsoft's business decisions; Third, if the company is listed, part of the equity of the listed company will be invested equally by the three parties, but the proportion of investment can only be more than less.

It's strange to interfere. You two guys' fortunes can't stop it, so I'm here to share a little money. As for the listing, I just waited until this step, because I don't want to do the business of Narausch with you, but to make money, of course, it is also necessary to maintain a part of Microsoft's shares, it is necessary.

For Bill and Paul, they have been working hard in this industry for five years, and at this time, they don't know how many more years they will have to work hard before they can get ahead. Selling 33% of the equity, in exchange for a million meters of knife, is also the "first pot of gold" dug by the two after the hard work, two guys, one was 20 years old, one was 18 years old, and now one is 25 years old, one is 23 years old, with this money, it is finally like having a home, and their lives will be on the right track.

Therefore, Bill and Paul did not suffer from this deal. As for what happened later, although the two of them regretted it a little, who can say what happened in the future, if it is luck, who can say that it was not after Han Tang found Microsoft to invest, Microsoft began to have good luck?

Because ah, there is a very important fact, that is, the software companies under Hantang are also developing very well, as for the four major group companies of Hantang Investment, Hantang Hi-Tech, Hantang Energy, and Hantang Mining, which one is not thriving and flourishing?

Of course, that's a story for later.

From Layue meeting the chief in Beijing to signing Microsoft, Yang Xia has been non-stop for three months, even during the Spring Festival in his hometown, he has been thinking about thunder and thunder.

As early as a month ago, on February 28, Hantang Food (Huaxia) Co., Ltd., Hantang Printing (Shenzhen-Hong Kong) Co., Ltd., and Hantang Trading (Shenzhen-Hong Kong) Co., Ltd. have been established in the Special Economic Zone, and the news of their establishment has also been on the official media such as Guansheng Daily, Shangjing TV, and Nanyue TV.

Yang Xia's trip to the west coast of the United States, set up a Hantang software in Seattle, and also successfully intervened in the Microsoft of Redmond City, although the stake in Microsoft consumed one-tenth of his tens of millions of dollars, but as long as you think about Microsoft's glory since then, you feel very proud.

Yang Xia and Liu Yuesheng, together with Zhang Yansen, director of Hantang Investment, Guo Shaojie, president of Hantang Investment, and Liu Chunwang, chief financial officer, visited the famous Wall Street in the United States, and invested 50,000 meters to wholly acquire a microfinance investment company, Shanying Investment and Financing Co., Ltd.

Although "Shanying Investment and Finance" is a small company and has a debt of nearly 100,000 meters, Yang Xia still decided to wholly acquire it as a Hantang investment, but in the whole process, there is no shadow of Yang Xia, nor the shadow of Hantang, nor the shadow of Huaxia.

This company, for Yang Xia, is a company that makes waves in the international financial investment market, so almost all the chairmen of Hantang's companies are served by Yang Xia, but this small Shanying Investment and Finance is chaired by Henderson, a well-known investment and financing madman on Wall Street. The company's employees are all white or black, and even yellow faces are not visible.

Of course, the name of the company has changed, remembering the quantum fund that made waves in later generations, Yang Xia decisively changed the name of this company to "Mountain Eagle Fund".

In the West or the United States, there is no difference between investment companies and speculative companies, after China started the modernization voyage, the initial investment companies really had to invest in industry, but then everyone did not go to industry and went to speculation.

This is understandable, capital is the foundation of profit-seeking, the foundation of making money, where capital thinks there is money to make, it will naturally invest there. Moreover, in countries with a relatively complete market system, as long as there is no obvious malice, or there is no irreparable loss to the country where it is located, the official will generally not pursue anything, of course, provided that you operate legally and pay taxes according to the regulations.

When Yang Xia and others approached Henderson through a headhunter company, Henderson was already unemployed at home and had avoided customers. This well-known financial madman once lifted four investment companies to the top of the clouds, but also drove them into the abyss of hell, leaving nothing for those companies except to earn a touch of public scream, and two of them went bankrupt as a result.

Who else would dare to use such a person.

Others dare not use it, it does not mean that Yang Xia does not dare to use it. Because, after Yang Xia analyzed Henderson's success or failure cases, he found that he was exactly the person he was looking for. Henderson always leverages the stock market index or futures market with the maximum capital and the maximum leverage, this behavior is the means that all traders will take, their eyes are always focused on the greatest interests, but investment is risky, how to prevent and control risks, but it is not the trader's business but the business of the owner of the funds.

Yang Xia was able to meet Henderson, not because Yang Xia had a big face, but also by chance. The headhunter was not optimistic about Yang Xia and his entourage of Asians, so they recommended Henderson; And Henderson didn't think Yang Xia would be able to save his soul. However, Henderson died because his seven-year-old daughter had a strange illness that could not be found in major hospitals in New York, so he urgently needed to prove himself in order to get a sum of money to go to Europe.

Of course, the last story was told by Mrs. Henderson, who received Yang Xia and his party.

"Mrs. Henderson, maybe, I can heal your daughter." Yang Xia saw a little Lori sick and disgusted, and felt sympathy.

"You're a doctor?" Mrs. Henderson was surprised.

"No, I'm a legendary qigong master in China." Yang Xia said, took out a paper towel from the tissue box on the table, and then rubbed his hands vigorously, the paper towel not only turned into a note, but also ignited a raging fire. (To be continued......)
