Li Lin, who understood everything, was laughing in his heart.

Both Wall Street funds and Steve Jobs are full of uncertainty about the iPhone, except that the former believes that the iPhone is more likely to lose, while the latter believes that his work is more likely to be popular.

But this qiē is not important to Li Lin.

Why?

Because he knows very well that the release of the iPhone is a success, and it is an unprecedented success, although it has not reached the point where the iPhone 4 and iPhone 6 have affected for several years, but the first generation of the iPhone has been selling crazy for a year.

At the moment, it seems that an iPhone without a keyboard is heretical, but who would have thought that in the future, a phone with a keyboard would be heresy.

It is precisely because he understands these that Li Lin laughs in his heart, he laughs at whether it is Steve Jobs or Wall Street funds, what he is arguing about at this time is so ridiculous.

Of course, he also knows very well that the approach of Jobs and Wall Street funds is normal, and he can stand on the shoulders of giants and look down on them because he knows the future development trend.

However, he knew in his heart that in the face, Li Lin still tried his best not to leave flaws.

"Oh, isn't that normal? Every change creates a great deal of uncertainty, and Wall Street funds are doing the same thing. ”

Seeing that the investors he wanted to win over actually praised his opponents, Jobs immediately retorted: "No! That's because you don't see the iPhone at all. ”

"It's so artistic, so epoch-making. Its appearance will surely bring a new tomorrow to Apple. ”

When Jobs spoke, he was particularly sacred, and it was extremely infectious.

Li Lin looked at him. The heart said that it was no wonder that so many fruit fans in later generations were obsessed with Jobs, and when Jobs died, they all sighed, as if the world was over.

"Mr. Jobs, everybody is exaggerating like this when they lobby others to invest." Li Lin said: "But most people will let investors find out that they have been deceived when they get investment." ”

"I wouldn't be that kind of person."

"Everyone who has deceived others makes promises like this, but in reality, often the people who promise are unreliable." Li Lin looked at Jobs, who had a bad face, and immediately said, "But I'm very interested in Apple." ”

"Just don't know how much you need me to put in and how much I'm going to get?"

Seeing the business come. Jobs's face immediately turned from gloomy to sunny, "At present, the company's market value is 13 billion, and Li can invest 1.3 billion to acquire 10% of the shares from the Blackstone Fund." ”

Absorb fractional shares from the market. It will inevitably cause large-scale fluctuations in the stock price and waste money, but if you accept shares from other shareholders, the fluctuations will be minimal.

Just right. The Blackstone Fund is the main opposition to Apple's iPhone offering. They have threatened to withdraw from Apple and take over the shares from them, just in time to fight against the forces that oppose them.

As for the Blackstone Foundation not withdrawing, he believes that he will stick to it, and the Blackstone Foundation will 'stop the loss'.

Wall Street funds have always known that infighting is not good for the company, so they will not interfere in the internal affairs of the company after investing, but once they think the company may be in decline, they will flee.

The reason why they fought with Jobs. The reason for opposing Jobs's reforms was that no one had taken over the stocks. So much so that they could not escape, and as soon as someone was willing to take over, they would flee.

Investing 1.3 billion now and getting 60 times the income in ten years sounds optimistic, but Li Lin is not satisfied.

"At this price to win an unknown future, Jobs, don't you think this is too inconsistent with the favor of capital?" Li Lin said lightly: "I have an idea, which is good for everyone." ”

"What's the idea?"

Jobs came interested.

He had an occasional flash of inspiration and pulled Li Lin into the camp to fight against Wall Street capital, lest those capital criticize him when the iPhone was released.

It's also better to keep Apple in your hands.

Now Li Lin said that there is a better way, and he is happy to see it in detail.

"Actively suppress stock prices."

Li Lin whispered.

Once this kind of thing spreads, whether it is him or Jobs, he will immediately be invited to tea by the US government.

This is the death of the light.

"What."

Jobs felt his eyelids jump, "Are you crazy?" ”

He instinctively lowered his voice.

Manipulating stock prices for profits seems to be profitable, but the SEC also imposes a very high penalty on it, and the fine is enough to bankrupt them.

With fines of hundreds of millions and billions, the China Securities Regulatory Commission will definitely not be soft.

It's not so easy to bypass the SEC.

"Of course not."

Li Lin's eyes swept around, raised his glass, Jobs understood, and the two quietly came to the conference hall with a kick, and Li Lin whispered when making sure that no one was around: "Although the SEC is strict, it is not without a place that cannot be monitored. ”

"For example, Huaxia's banking system."

The SEC and mainstream banks around the world have agreements to investigate some accounts, but only Huaxia, they have no agreement.

This may be a problem left over from history, or it may be something else, but this has nothing to do with Li Lin, he just needs to know that this provides him with a loophole that he can exploit.

"You suppress Apple's stock price, I buy Apple's stock through the Huaxia banking system, don't doubt my strength, Mr. Jobs, among my partners are the children of the red family in Huaxia, and their ability to interfere in the banking system is beyond your imagination."

"I know." Jobs looked at Li Lin seriously, "But what can I get?" ”

"I suppress the stock price, you come to buy, what can I get in the end?"

"You will have my full support, on the board of directors, my people will support you unconditionally, and. You'll be paid $100 million afterwards, provided you can push Apple's stock price to half of what it is now. ”

Li Lin is reluctant to give up stocks, he would rather pay cash.

100 million in cash will make him feel pain in a short period of time. But if he paid for the same level of Apple stock, he dared to guarantee that he would regret it in the future.

"Lee, you're a little greedy." Jobs frowned.

"It's not that I'm greedy, it's just that I'm taking most of the risk, and I need to have enough profit to act as my motivation, Mr. Jobs, and you don't feel like there's a shareholder who fully supports you than often opposes you. And was it more pleasing to the Wall Street fund that kicked you out of Apple? ”

Li Lin said with a smile.

Risk?

Of course there is, but compared to the benefits, it is enough to take risks.

All he wants to do now is eat as many shares of apples as he can. If it weren't for his lack of strength, he would even want to eat the whole apple.

This apple is so green and so mouth-watering. Put it to your mouth and don't eat it. Li Lin felt that he would be punished by heaven.

Kick out the apple!

As soon as the sadness was mentioned, Jobs was like an angry lion, and he became furious, "Don't mention those disgusting Wall Street capital to me." ”

"That's why I need someone to replace them." Li Lin ignored Jobs's anger, "Jobs, please believe me, I am your most loyal supporter, as long as I enter Apple's board of directors." I will fully support you, and I can sign an agreement with you. ”

Aggregators, of course.

Steve Jobs single-handedly brought Apple to glory. Does he dare not hug?

Even if it wasn't for Jobs's reputation in later generations just for the sake of Jobs's profits, he had to hug it, but he knew how much combat power Jobs' Apple had, of course, after Jobs' death, Apple continued to be brilliant that was another matter.

In the final analysis, it was Steve Jobs who laid the foundation for Apple, and later generations only added to this foundation.

"Lee, you seem to be keen on taking a stake in Apple." Jobs asked tentatively, and looked at Li Lin at the same time, wanting to see a little difference.

Li Lin's heart was shocked, but his face did not change, "Didn't you invite me in?" ”

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Yes!

Jobs invited Li Lin to invest in Apple's board of directors, Li Lin eagerly entered the board of directors, and the two hit it off, so why bother to investigate the reason.

"Come, let's toast to our upcoming collaboration."

Li Lin raised his wine glass and collided with Jobs's glass.

"Jobs, you're actually lying to me."

"What?"

Jobs's face immediately returned to normal after a slight change, "Where did I lie to you." ”

"The iPhone isn't being studied, it's already been studied, isn't it?"

In a word, Jobs really changed color.

"How do you know?"

iPhone is a secret in Apple's secrets, except for him and a few people, no one else knows, and there is no news about it, how did Li Lin know?

His first reaction was that there was a commercial espionage at Apple.

Commercial espionage is not uncommon, and it comes in handy when companies don't get some of the information they need through normal means.

Of course, commercial espionage is just a general term, not the omnipotent agents in the movie.

The commercial spies in the movie look like they are bullying and cool, they can do anything, they can do whatever they want, even if the company's secrets are locked in the underground base, they can get information.

But in reality, commercial espionage is not the same thing.

The sources of commercial espionage are also very wide, for example, the core members of a company are bought by a large amount of money and sell their information to other companies, this person becomes a commercial espionage.

From the company's low-level employees to the company's core lineup, and even people in the company's board of directors can become commercial spies, so to speak, this is impossible to prevent.

"No, not commercial espionage." Li Lin shook his head, "I just heard the wind by chance, and I'm quite optimistic about the iPhone, like you, I think it's an epoch-making work." (To be continued......)
