It's a good idea to play the full 18 holes, change into clean clothes and enjoy a wonderful dinner in the gentle sea breeze. And the dinner table is also the easiest place to make a deal, which is common in all countries, but some people like to get drunk to make a decision, and some just for a relaxed mood.

"A 20% stake in the Global Center, $400 million. I was able to convince Morgan Stanley to choose this as the headquarters for the Far East. Steve offered his price, "and I hope to partner with BP Capital to form Rosrock's investment company to gain access to the gradually opening up of the financial markets." ”

"Hmm......" Chen Bo chewed and his mouth was much more tender. The juicy steak pondered, if he sold him 20%, there would be 50%, plus the shares of Suning Real Estate, the right to speak was still on his side, and even if other investors cut off their funds in the future, Rothrock would be able to continue.

As for finance, it is not a big problem, the corporate bond market has been liberalized this year, and if you invest carefully, you can still make a lot of profits.

For corporate financing, not only banks and the stock market, corporate bonds are a good way to borrow money for a short period of time, only a high credit rating is required, and the procedures are relatively simple, but the interest rate is definitely higher than that of banks.

"At least $500 million, housing prices are just taking off, unlike the mature markets in New York, where the increase is no more than 7%. In the center of Shanghai, it is very easy to make a tenfold profit in ten years. "There are many people and little land, and every inch of land is expensive, and a private house will cost tens of millions in the future, not to mention the tallest office building.

"No problem, I hope it will be completed by the time the summer comes."

"It's a pleasure to work with." Chen Bo touched his wine glass, and the details naturally had to be discussed by professionals.

That's a 2.5-fold increase, which is already cheaper for him, and the contract for this building has been transferred to the Millhouse Foundation. Presumably, Abu will be able to jump up when he knows the news, and it is not much easier than pouring oil with your life.

"Your uncle is more powerful than you." Chen Bo patted Nicholas on the shoulder and said to him when he left, I hope this rich man can soar to the sky as soon as possible. After all, he is young, and he will live longer than those old guys, and it is always right to have a good relationship.

The weather is getting warmer, and so is San Francisco's Bay Area, but even the traditional Valentine's Day can't resist the enthusiasm of people in Silicon Valley for work.

Tech nerd, where did I get my girlfriend, I really think too much.

Google has a rose for every woman, and Mayer is no exception, and it's no surprise that overtime has become her routine.

Put down the coffee in her hand, turn on the computer that is always on standby, and Ding Dong prompted her to receive an email, and then looked at the sender, but it was the opponent who made people hate in their hearts.

After clicking on it, the content is just a straightforward Happy Valentine's Day, and the attachment is a note about the gift, which is only 2.9MB in size.

Mayer opened it casually, and the Internet speed in Google's office was naturally not an old dial-up line, and second-speed downloads were not a dream at all.

Unzip, install, and after a few simple operations, the interface of the program pops up, clean, fresh, and crisp interface, as well as the name of the software, Ant Album.

What？ New products! Mayer tried to search, typed in a single character, and immediately displayed all the image formats on his computer that contained that character information, and he was able to edit pictures in a fool's way, and he could create an account with just a Foxmail email address and import computer photos into his MySpace blog with one click.

Short, powerful, and responsive! The most important thing is that the experience is really high.

Mayer casually forwarded the attachment to Larry Page and dialed the phone.

"Your gift isn't romantic."

"But pleasantly surprised, wasn't it?" Chen Bo smiled on the other end of the phone, "You must like it very much, right?" ”

"No, I'm not the head of Picasa, you should send it directly to Larry."

"I'm a man with a normal personality orientation, and I have no interest in the same sex."

"Well, let's not do it! You wait, I'll definitely give you a gift too!! Mayer roared in a low voice, she had been hit several times by this man who was both an opponent and a friend, how could she not be angry in her heart. Acdsee: Haven't you completed the acquisition yet? Where did the code come from. ”

"This is the only one in the world that makes image browsers, and I forgot to tell you that I have already given up on the acquisition of ACDSEE. I'll wait for your gift to me, but today is Valentine's Day, so I should have a good date, and I will accelerate aging in front of the computer! After Chen Bo finished teasing Mayer, he hung up the phone without waiting for her to respond, so that even if there was a fire, there was nowhere to send it.

The one sent to her was only the basic version of the Ant Album, and the toolkit with more features was not on the list, otherwise she would have to vomit blood.

Although he couldn't return to China on Valentine's Day, he didn't forget the two women, whose rooms were already covered with rose petals.

Chen Bo planned to leave for the UK first, and then go straight to Singapore, and naturally some people were cheering for him about Harvard, and there was no need to come forward. As soon as I packed my luggage, I received a call from Li Zhaojun, who had arrived in New York.

"Sister Jun, what are your orders?"

"How dare I give you an order, you have hard wings now, and there are more and more flowers." Li Zhaojun pointed out, and said, "I don't bother to care about your affairs, let's talk about something serious." Apple stock, what do you think? ”

"The prospect is okay, if someone comes out, it's all next!" Chen Bo blurted out, "It can't be a fool who wants to sell, right?" ”

"Well, there really is, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia Holding Company! They have 6.5% of Apple's shares under their names, and they are currently worth about $700 million, and they are looking for buyers, but Warren Buffett is afraid to touch the technology stocks, and others are more cautious, and the price is very strong, and you also know Jobs's condition, so Apple's stock performance is not satisfactory at present. Li Zhaojun put it together, I'm afraid this is also her question.

Apple's market capitalization is only about $10 billion, which is not much even when the Internet is highly inflated, because Steve Jobs has only just returned, and the iMac has just been released. The current stock price is still not very high, mainly because the pre-sales of the iPod are not very good, which has dragged down.

In addition, iMac has not yet switched to the camp of Intel, the compatibility is unsatisfactory, the market share is still too low, and the combination of various factors has led to the stock market performance not being as good as investors' expectations.

"There is no need to lower the price, the $500 million contract in the World Financial Center can be completed in a few months, and if there is no spare funds, it will be borrowed from the bank." Chen Bo made a direct decision, "What is the origin of that kingdom holding?" Haven't heard of this person? ”

"The funds are fine, they are abundant. Kingdom Holdings is the largest privately owned company in Saudi Arabia and was founded by Prince Alwaleed. It is the majority shareholder of Saudi United Commercial Bank, the largest bank in the Middle East, and led the restructuring of Citigroup, owning 16.7% of the shares. Apple's stock was acquired in '97 for $110 million. Li Zhaojun told the information he obtained, "I also invested in eBay, Amazon, Pepsi, Disney, and Kodak, but the proportion is not high, according to the stock market mistakes, about 50 million US dollars." ”

"It's a character, it's just a flaw." This prince has a good vision, but he invests too little, and he invests in large companies. Apple shares are sold after making 6 times the profit, according to normal logic, it is already a lot of gains, but this can only show that he is too conservative and does not understand the importance of technology companies in the future social development.

In 2000, he acquired Compaq shares for $400 million, and in 02, when HP acquired it, he made nearly 10 times the profit. Alwaleed is also the richest man in the Middle East, ranked in the top 20 on the Forbes list, and is known as the god of Middle Eastern stocks. ”

"I'll go, it's kind of interesting." Chen Bo didn't expect that this Middle Eastern tyrant would not pour oil, and he would be able to play new tricks with capital. "But what does that have to do with me?"

"In view of the repeated successes in the technology market, he wants to invest in Ant Search, but he doesn't know that B&P, Milhouse is related to you, just as an ordinary investor, find this to let me match."

"All the ideas hit me? Doesn't he know that I specialize in running a black shop? I'm afraid it's a bit difficult. Chen Bo didn't care, Ant Search's current valuation is not low, voting for one or two hundred million is no different from playing tickets, and the parent company's $1.5 billion is lying there and hasn't moved, so it's not short of money at all.

With the addition of Huatou, Pangu already has the coat of a central enterprise, although this name is a bit empty.

But this layer of skin is very good, at least in the market development has taken a big step forward, the advertising expenses of large domestic group companies basically did not run. In the past few days in the United States, he has signed several large contracts in a row, and the advance deposit alone has caught up with last year's revenue.

Choosing an investor has never only looked at the money, but also on the resources and connections behind him, and what he can bring to the company.

"Doesn't he have shares of other Internet companies in his hands? After communicating with them, they all bought them. What ebay, Amazon's and Apple are packaged together. ”

Of course, this will not be a loss, but also make a lot of money, this prince monkey spirit, in 2000 the means of buying the dip is the same as he took the opportunity to buy the three major portals, but he only sold the speed fox website, resulting in not much recovery until now, and the kingdom holding wants to sell Apple.

"I'll talk about this, but he's going to invite you to Riyadh, what do you think will be arranged?"

"Riyadh? Think about it. Chen Bo was a little hesitant, this local tyrant's resources are undoubtedly extremely rich, but it is still a little doubtful that he can really help the ant search. Moreover, Saudi Arabia is the most conservative country in the Middle East, which makes him a little resistant.

"I think we can see that no matter what, we still have a good relationship with Citigroup."

"Then next month, I'm going to take care of the work in Singapore first." Chen Bo had no choice but to make such an arrangement, first to find out the bottom and then make a decision, and it was difficult to draw conclusions without touching anything.
