Chapter 1065: Love and Sacrifice

Although Kim Jae-young sometimes seems to be full of habits of son-in-law, but in order to please women, he deliberately came to Lee Jingming at night, just to ask for an autographed photo, which is really not his style. The statement just now was just to deal with Jessica because he saw that Li Jingming was not at home, in fact, he came here for other things, and he couldn't tell him what he had to talk about on the phone, so it was naturally not a trivial matter.

The Magic will buy the Los Angeles Dodgers, although this matter needs to be voted by Li Jingming, but it actually has little to do with him, because he is already the big owner of the century-old Boston Red Sox, and the MLB league will naturally not allow him to interfere in the Dodgers' affairs again. In order to add weight to the acquisition of the Dodgers, Magic Johnson has begun to actively contact others to sell his shares in the Lakers, and the fanatical Lakers fan Kim Jae-young came here to beg Li Jingming to take this small stake that is actually useless.

The Lakers have not been called downhill in recent years, they are completely on the straight elevator to hell, the Buss family is now busy with infighting, and has no intention of managing the team, and loyal fans like Kim Jae-young are very anxious. If Lee Ching-myung can use the shares in the hands of Magic Johnson as a fulcrum, and then buy the Lakers from the Buss family through follow-up operations, this is what Kim Jae-young wants.

The reason why Li Jingming is willing to take over the Red Sox is indeed because of the emotional stance of the Red Sox fans, and hopes to promote his empire through the Red Sox, but the more important or more direct reason is the preferential tax policy of the United States for sports investment. Although the acquisition of the team was expensive, Li Jingming was able to apply for a tax exemption of nearly one billion dollars from the American Conquest, and the Li family made a lot of money in this acquisition no matter how you look at it.

To put it bluntly, the acquisition of the team is a large-scale money laundering activity with official intervention. As long as you have that asset to join the game, you can always get what you want from it, and this is the so-called American model. Magic Johnson is worth less than $500 million, but he can take out $2.1 billion to buy the Los Angeles Dodgers, and the dark shadows behind him are the real bosses. He himself was just a presence to block the gun.

In normal times, Li Jingming would definitely be interested in this kind of thing, but now he is busy dealing with the shareholders of that pile of apples. Originally, everyone was waiting for the Qiao gang leader to return to his position, and then pry the shares out of his family's hands, but they waited happily until the Qiao gang leader finally couldn't do it, and when they went over there to ask, they had already given everything to Li Jingming, and as for the more than 7 billion US dollars spent by Li Jingming on the acquisition, it was completely the jump price.

It's not like no one has ever tried to buy these stakes from Steve Jobs before, especially in the early days when the news broke that he had pancreatic cancer. But the old man was very stubborn, he didn't pay attention to anyone, and he didn't even show signs of softening, who knew that he had reached such a strange deal with Li Jingming quietly. In the eyes of many people, Jobs's choice this time is a little inexplicable, although he has made a great contribution to the IT industry, but his nature is very cold, because of financial problems and his family have fallen out more than once, just such a person who has never suffered losses. When he arrived, he was bleeding profusely in front of Li Jingming, which had to make people wonder if there was any special relationship between them, the old and the young.

Li Jingming was brought in by Qiao Gang Leader back then. From a small shareholder who does not have much right to speak, to the person in charge of the entire planning of the personal mobile client, and then to the current actual speaker of the company, Li Jingming is inseparable from the support of Jobs at every step. Outsiders can't understand Li Jingming, but they understand that Jobs' love and selflessness were given to the Apple collective. It was this idea that gave Apple, so family friendship is only his sacrifice, not his flaw.

The reason why Li Jingming has to spend time arguing with these people is because equity transfer is not a matter that can be decided by two people, even if Jobs is willing to sell. If the vote is not passed, except for Jobs to stand up again and forcibly repeat the shareholders' meeting, suppress these people's careful thinking, but now it is obviously impossible, Li Jingming can only fight alone.

Li Jingming has been on Apple's board of directors for five years, and with his net worth background and open-mindedness, he has naturally pulled up a team, but it is a pity that it is obviously impossible for those people to make a final decision on this kind of thing that can determine the future fate of the company.

Li Jingming over there is fighting a protracted battle, and the recording of the new album of Girls' Generation here is over quickly, and it is useless to even spend a day before and after. S.M brought Girls' Generation to the United States, and the purpose of publicity was far greater than the quality of the album, and Riley could have gone to South Korea, just to make Korean fans feel that "with Michael. The producers Jackson has worked with "The title is very powerful."

Before Michael. When Jackson was still there, the guitarist and stylist around him, and even the little brother with a bag and a group of other people and brothers were all in the mix, but after the great god returned to the throne, even his own sister Jennifer. Jackson is about to lose track of Vanity Fair, let alone the other behind-the-scenes people. Jackson, the great god, they are nothing. Riley's skills are good, and he has won a Grammy Award before, but that is talking about his stage skills during the Solo period, and if you want to talk about the ability of producers, you can get a general idea by looking at the quality of "TheBoys".

"Is OPPA still not coming back today?" After returning to Beverly's residence, Tiffany threw her things on the couch, stretched and asked, she had been looking forward to meeting Li Jingming again before coming to Los Angeles, so she didn't even go home to accompany her father, but insisted on staying here for the reason of "accompanying her teammates", but it turned out that two days had passed but she didn't even see Li Jingming's shadow.

"Ah, Pani, you shouldn't ask this sentence, even if Jingming OPPA comes back, it won't matter to you." Cui Xiuying is in a good mood, and there is a song written by her in the new album, so she has been in a very high state for the past two days, and she doesn't often express her stance at this time, but today she naturally stood on Jessica's side, because Jessica helped her win this opportunity.

Tiffany quietly looked at Jessica's face before she excused herself, "I'm just asking, I'm just a little curious about the situation on the OPPA's side." ”

"I'm not curious, don't just think about it." Jessica didn't react aggressively, but was a little salty, which is Kim Taeyeon's long-standing reaction to things.

In the past few days, Jessica suddenly has a feeling that she has seen through everything, and has become less concerned about anything, no longer designing this and worrying about that, but hoping that everything will go naturally, not that she has lost her fighting spirit, but that she knows the trade-offs. Although she has been talking to Li Jingming about marriage and retirement, it really makes her now spread out and live by the sea, and she doesn't seem to be ready, Jessica herself is a little unsure about her heart, and where will she have the energy to care about Tiffany and the others.

"Uh......h Woof! Jessica was still thinking about things, and the happy joy that had been lying honestly at her feet suddenly stood up and called out into the yard, but Jessica jumped out like a rocket without pulling it, and then vigorously scratched the glass door that blocked it from getting out.

Li Jingming was happily pounced on his leg as soon as he entered the door, although he hadn't seen him for two or three days, but this enthusiasm was very exaggerated, which made him very unbearable, "Yaxi, saliva has gotten on my clothes, while playing." ”

"OPPA, what did we bring us to eat?" Unlike Jessica and Tiffany, who stared at Li Jingming's face, Lin Yuna was very concerned about the incubator he was holding as soon as Li Jingming came in, which is usually used to store ice cubes to keep food cold outdoors.

"You know how to eat all day long!" Li Jing understood Lin Yun'er at a glance, he didn't see it for so long and asked for food in the first sentence, it hurt his self-esteem, and after driving away the happiness, he changed his shoes, and then he put the box on the coffee table, "This is a secret crayfish, I happened to pass by this shop, I have eaten it before and think it tastes good, so I will bring it back for you to taste, be careful when you eat it later, don't hurt your hands and mouth." ”

The belief that crayfish is a biological weapon created by the Japanese to plague the Celestial Empire, or a tool used to dispose of corpses, etc., is entirely the result of false rumors, but in fact, the history of crayfish consumption is much longer than most people think. Mexicans have been eating crayfish for hundreds of years, and the southern states of the United States have long been large-scale consumers of crayfish, until the late nineties of the twentieth century, when Americans were the world's largest consumers of crayfish, and more than 90 percent of the crayfish on the market were in their stomachs. Louisiana has even legislated the formation of an official organization, the Crayfish (Related Causes) Promotion and Research Association, and California, also a southern state, hosts a crayfish festival in Long Beach every June.

"Why is there corn in here, can't you eat corn?" Jessica was stunned after Lin Yuner and Quan Yunli opened the box, Li Jingming had also made spicy crayfish for her before, the spicy and fresh flavor was very good, she couldn't eat spicy while drinking water and eating her face was so spicy that she couldn't stop it, the taste was addictive, but this time the crayfish was too "Americanized", there were not only corn that Li Jingming couldn't eat, but also potatoes and curry.
