The two didn't fight in the end.

The reason is very simple, there are staff, students, and agents inside, and reporters outside, and if you fight here, it is estimated that you will not have to wait for the next day to appear in the headlines, and then the fans of the two factions will start a war of words, and even the relevant departments will be involved.

Fighting is not what a high-quality idol should do.

After the artist gains attention, his words and deeds are supervised by the media, and fights are just common among ordinary people, but if they are placed on celebrities, even if both parties are very restrained, they will not be imprisoned for a few days.

Because it can have a bad effect.

After resting all day, Li Lin went back to the company directly.

"Li Lin, you're finally back."

Qi Xiangdong saw Li Lin coming back, and immediately greeted him cordially, "This time we sent it." ”

He knew that Li Lin mortgaged the gold medal group to absorb Apple shares, and he also stopped it, but in the end, the group was Li Lin's, and he persuaded him several times, so he did not continue to persuade him, but silently looked for a way out.

To be honest, he has been in the Gold Medal Group for several years, and has grown from a small entertainment paradise boss to the CEO of the entire Gold Medal Group, and he also has feelings for the Gold Medal Group.

But no matter how much he has feelings, once it is irretrievable, he can only give up, because he has a family to support.

He's seen many well-developed businesses collapse because all of them made a bad choice.

But when he learned that the iPhone was a huge success and that Apple stock in the United States was going crazy, he knew he didn't have to leave. Because Li Lin won.

He won the bet, won a future for himself, and won a bright path for the gold group.

With the hot sale of the iPhone. ICQ has seen a surge in registrations around the world, and who makes it possible to have only ICQ on the iPhone, even if they want to change to MSN, they can't, even if they go over the wall, they can't run MSN because MSN doesn't have an Apple version, which is the benefit of bundling.

Microsoft defeated Netscape and ICQ in one fell swoop with bundles.

Or someone will say. No matter how hot the iPhone is, that is, more than one million units, at most it will bring one million users to ICQ. But that's not how the accounts are calculated.

There is only ICQ on the iPhone, and users can only use ICQ if they want to chat, and no one can chat much with ICQ, so they will inevitably invite their classmates and friends to sign up for ICQ. This kind of interpersonal transfer has led to a new round of growth in ICQ users.

And the more people who sign up for ICQ. The more users are poached from MSN, the more zero-sum games will always be played in the instant messaging market.

It's not like mobile and connectivity.

Although the distance between China Mobile Unicom is very long, they can still talk to each other without hindrance, and instant messaging software is different, have you ever seen QQ and MSN users chat with each other?

No.

So when you poach a loyal user, it will inevitably bring a whole chain of relationships, and these relationship chains can pull new ones. It's an infinitely repeating and cyclical process.

There is a saying in the West that if you know three people, you know the whole world.

This may not be true in life. But for instant messaging apps, this couldn't be more true.

Of course, loyal users are not so easy to find.

Because more people are using MSN while hanging ICQ, just like Li Lin's YY and QQ in his previous life, when YY was at its peak, users also hung YY on one side and QQ on the other.

In a sentence at the time, it was: The saddest thing about YY is that users hang QQ while hanging YY, and there is no YY when hanging QQ.

But on the iPhone, qiē is not a problem.

Because the iPhone only has ICQ, there is no MSN, even if you want to hang the ICQ at the same time MSN can't do it, as for MSN to develop the iPhone version, it also takes a certain amount of time, the iPhone uses Apple's system, and Apple is not necessarily willing to go to MSN.

Even if it is a lawsuit, they can delay.

"Didn't you keep trying to persuade me?" Li Lin smiled playfully, "An executive like you doesn't have a good vision." ”

"Didn't I see it clearly?" Qi Xiangdong faced Li Lin's joke without blushing or beating heartbeat, but he knew that even Wall Street funds such as Sequoia Capital and VC Fund were planted on Apple stocks.

First, Apple's stock suddenly plummeted, then the iPhone sold hot, and Apple's stock skyrocketed, and in both judgments, Sequoia Capital and VC funds were wrong, and these two funds have completely become the laughing stock of Wall Street.

"But Mr. Li, how did you know that Apple's stock would skyrocket this time?" Qi Xiangdong voiced his doubts.

At that time, Apple's stock plummeted, both ordinary investors and Wall Street funds were withdrawing stocks, but Li Lin pressed the entire group to absorb Apple stocks, and his judgment was correct, a few days after he absorbed a large number of Apple stocks, Apple rebounded quickly, and climbed back in the surprised eyes of investors, and rose a lot.

This kind of judgment can simply be a god.

No, not a stock god, but a prophet, at least Warren Buffett didn't give Wall Street funds any good ideas in this Apple stock decline.

You must know that Warren Buffett has the title of advisor to Sequoia Capital, and the investment philosophy between them is very close

"Apple's board of directors didn't want Jobs to release an iPhone, so Jobs found a foreign helper." Li Lin lowered his voice and said mysteriously.

But his words startled Qi Xiangdong, "What, you're crazy." ”

Li Lin: What is this doing? This is insider trading, it is an operational violation, and once it is discovered, it will immediately be fined heavily, and if it is exposed, the reputation will be ruined.

The rich don't care about fame. But Li Lin is not only a rich man, but also an artist, and what an artist cares about most is reputation. Once he is involved in this kind of scandal, his popularity will immediately plummet, and it may not be so easy to climb back in the future.

"Do you know how powerful the SEC is?"

The SEC and the China Securities Regulatory Commission are not the same.

Although the Huaxia Securities Regulatory Bureau is also very powerful, with Li Lin's relationship at the top, they don't dare to investigate it at all, even if they inadvertently get clues. The only thing to do is to help Li Lin sweep the tail, if they don't want to offend several other shareholders of the Gold Group.

But the SEC is different.

Li Lin's roots in the United States are too shallow, and he is not a member of Wall Street. Nor is it a core member of the US consortium, once the SEC detects that he is illegally manipulating the stock price behind his back, a scandal will immediately be exposed, and he will also be sued by the US Securities and Exchange Commission. There must be a hefty fine.

"Once exposed. It's all over. ”

"Don't worry, the SEC can't find us." Li Lin chuckled, "First, Jobs and I met at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, and you should know that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission can't go anywhere." ”

The activities of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce even had to concede to the CIA, let alone a small CSRC, and even if it was only an activity hosted by Goldman Sachs and participated by hundreds of large and medium-sized American conglomerates, it was not something that the CSRC could monitor.

Because of the power they unite. Even the White House had to tremble.

"Second, my call with Steve Jobs was via a satellite phone from American Star. Absolutely safe, as long as they are not targeted by organizations of the level of the CIA, it is impossible for them to leak secrets. ”

American Star belongs to a professional satellite communications company in the United States, and its secrecy methods are very superb, and it is said that they have a deep connection with the US military, because they have launched 24 satellites to cover the whole world, and these 24 satellites are all provided by the US military.

"I don't think the SEC will find us under such secrecy measures."

He met Steve Jobs in Pingshui, and then contacted him by phone, and only after he became the board of directors did he show enthusiasm, and no matter how much the SEC investigated, it was impossible to find him.

As for the banking system, the SEC does not have the ability to investigate the banking system of Huaxia, and Li Lin does not think that the SEC will investigate him.

There are so many transactions in the U.S. stock market every day, and as for the big transactions in the stock market, it is not nothing, they don't have so much energy to check them one by one, like Li Lin's behavior, they can only pay attention to it, and they will still be on the side after making sure that there are no suspicious points.

"And no one has come to check on me yet, has it?" Li Lin smiled and said to Qi Xiangdong: "Okay, don't worry about these things, how is the company doing recently?" ”

As soon as the company was mentioned, Qi Xiangdong was excited, and he said with a smile on his eyebrows: "Recently, the company's performance is very good, and ICQ has benefited from the hot sale of iPhone, and the number of users has grown very fast." ”

"In addition, the number of users of Entertainment Paradise and ICQ music playback software has also increased a lot, and the mobile games we have developed have an overall daily turnover of more than 10 million."

The daily turnover in his mouth is a calculation method for mobile games, and the daily turnover represents the overall sales within 24 hours, and this part of the sales needs to be deducted from the platform share and then deduct the operating costs, which is the income.

In Li Lin's previous life, Apple's platform share was very strict, and the mobile game company got at most 1 to 3 percent of the turnover revenue, and the rest belonged to Apple.

But in this time and space, because Li Lin is a major shareholder of Apple, his game company gets 3 percent of the daily turnover, but every month 2 percent of the turnover flows into his game company account in the form of guò feedback.

Of course, this was also signed when Apple's board of directors was not optimistic about the iPhone, otherwise, even if he was a major shareholder of Apple, taking care of his own company would cause a backlash from the board.

But no matter what, the contract has been signed, and there is still obvious room for maneuver, and Apple's board of directors can only knock out its teeth and swallow it in the stomach.

As for spreading it, hehe, they are not so stupid, they have suffered from Li Lin, of course they have to eat it back from other game companies.

Therefore, they publicized that the sharing agreement between Li Lin and Apple was 3 percent, and as for the 2 percent feedback, they were very tacitly concealed. (To be continued......)
