Chapter 525: Ji Sheng's identity has been discovered! (Ask for a subscription, ask for a monthly pass)
Atlantic City, Golden Palace Hotel & Casino. The other party's CEO came forward, and Perry and Matt thought that Ji Cheng would definitely give the other party a chance to go to the VIP room to play.
But what they didn't expect was that Ji Cheng didn't seem to take the other party in his eyes at all, but just said surgingly: "No, I'll accompany my friends to play for a while and leave, you don't have to let people accompany us." "Huh?
Aren't you afraid of offending people? The other party can be the CEO of the Golden Palace Hotel & Casino, don't wait to let us in because of your arrogant attitude.
Perry and Matt were stunned. But again, what they didn't think about, the CEO of the casino still stammered and said: "Okay, then I won't bother, if there is anything you tell me at any time, I will handle it properly." After that, he came and went as fast as he could.
Perry and Matt said what is the situation, you are the CEO of a large casino, which is equivalent to the CEO of a public company, why don't you have a temper at all?
The two were thinking about it when there was a commotion of laughter behind them.
"It's so comfortable to sit in this car."
"Yes, I've never been in such a good luxury car when I'm so old."
"Mr. Ji is fantastic, Rolls-Royce Silver Thorn II!" Perry, Matt, Jack and the others turned their heads to see that the people who were talking were not the three girls, Elizabeth, Alice and Lily?
Matt wondered, "What Rolls-Royce Silver Thorn II?" Yin Lizabeth jumped forward and said with a smile: "The car that Mr. Ji arranged for us." Perry took a breath and said, "Mr. Ji arranged for you a Rolls-Royce Silver Thorn II car?" I remember 120,000 dollars for this car! "Today's $120,000 and later $120,000 are two completely different concepts, you must know that the federal minimum hourly wage in the current era is about $3.75, and a worker only earns about $1,000 a month, after all, it is impossible to work 24 hours a day, so if you want to buy a luxury car like the Rolls-Royce Silver Thorn II, a worker can afford it for ten years without eating or drinking!
First of all, a Lexus car! And then there is a Rolls-Royce Silver Thorn II! Perry and Matt have Ji Cheng in their hearts
The "wealth" estimate is constantly rising, and they think that this Mr. Ji should not be a millionaire as they guessed, but a multimillionaire, right?
If that's the case, it seems that there is nothing wrong with being respected by the casino CEO, after all, there are only fifty or sixty billionaires in the United States in the current era, and the status of multimillionaires is equivalent to that of later billionaires.
Well, they were less daring and didn't dare to guess any more. Ji Cheng said with a smile: "The second generation of the Silver Thorn is nothing, you really want to experience a good car, next time I will drive my Ferrari F40 out for you to play." Matt's eyes were about to pop out,
"Ferrari F40? I remember selling this car for $400,000 a car now, right? I...... I don't dare drive such a good car. ”
"It's not that expensive, my friend gave it to me, and the manufacturer he left directly only spent $250,000." Ji Cheng chatted with them casually and came inside, and then happened to see that the CEO of the casino who came to greet him just now was over there, he took out his card and asked the other party to exchange 30,000 US dollars for himself, well, if you go to exchange it yourself, I don't know how long it will take to queue.
Seeing the CEO of the casino running errands for Ji Cheng, Matt, Perry and others were no longer surprised, they thought that Ji Cheng was a big customer of the casino, and although it was still a bit strange to enjoy this kind of treatment, it was acceptable.
"Okay, 5,000 dollars in chips per person, and if you lose it, you won't be allowed to play." Ji Cheng gave everyone a share of chips.
Yin Lizabeth blinked and said, "Mr. Ji, aren't you playing?" Ji Cheng smiled,
"I'm afraid they'll lose to me in the casino when I play, well, no kidding, you guys play, I'll talk to Perry while playing."
"Okay, let's go play."
"Mr. Ji, you guys have fun." The three women rushed to the different tables like crazy to play, and even Jack was pulled away by his sister Elisabeth.
Originally, Matt didn't want to disturb Perry and Ji Cheng discussing cooperation, but Perry stopped him and said to Ji Cheng, "Mr. Ji, can I make a request to you?" ”
"What?" Ji Cheng asked. Perry gritted his teeth and said, "Actually, Matt, the instant messaging software I developed to meet you, has also made a lot of efforts, and even helped me all night many times, I think...... I figured if we could give Matt a share of the shares you gave me when we signed the contract next, and it would be better for him to do things with me. "Indeed, in the current era of technology, it is impossible for Perry to develop an instant messaging software so quickly, and Matt has played a big role in it, especially last night when the two were still busy, so this morning Jack, Yin Lizabeth and others came to celebrate Perry's birthday when Matt was still sleeping, but he didn't sleep last night and was tired from working together.
It stands to reason that in this case, there is nothing wrong with Matt taking some shares together, but he doesn't want his good brother to get investment, because this kind of thing makes investors have opinions, so he quickly took the initiative to say: "Mr. Ji, you don't have to listen to his nonsense." Ji Cheng looked at him with interest,
"You also participated in the development of this instant messaging software?"
"Well, partially." Matt said honestly. Ji Chengxin said that since you participated in the development, I definitely can't let you run away, otherwise you know how to develop the same type of product when you look back, and it is not very beneficial for you to switch to other companies because of the popularity of Perry.
"Okay, anyway, I'll give you a total of 10% of the shares, Perry, you and Matt will discuss how many shares one person will take, and go back and make it clear, I will have someone write it into the contract."
"Thank you, Mr. Ji, thank you." Perry said gratefully. Matt didn't expect that Ji Cheng might become a billionaire worth hundreds of thousands of dollars in just one sentence, and he was overjoyed.
At this moment, suddenly a voice came from behind,
"Hey, Mr. Ji, are you also coming to the Golden Palace to play?" The three turned their heads to look, and it was Bill Gates, the idol of Matt and Perry!
Ji Cheng was also stunned for a moment, he didn't expect to see Bill Gates here after the last farewell at Matthew's celebration banquet, he smiled and stretched out his hand and said, "Mr. Gates, long time no see." At the beginning, Bill Gates was high, but now his social status is far less than Ji Cheng, so he hurriedly smiled and stepped forward to hold his gloves and said, "Yes, I haven't seen you for more than half a year, right?" Mr. Ji, you are getting better and better, when can you buy some shares of our company, so that our company's stock price will also rise sharply? Although this sentence is a half-joke, if Ji Cheng can really agree, Bill Gates will definitely be happy to see it, who doesn't know what kind of existence Ji Cheng is now in the financial industry?
If he can buy Microsoft shares, it will definitely attract more people to invest, and then Microsoft's stock price will go up?
Ji Cheng really didn't pay attention to Microsoft's current market value, and asked casually: "What is Microsoft's market value?" Bill Gates said: "More than three billion dollars." ”
"Three...... Well? Just over $3 billion? Ji Cheng was surprised. Matt and Perry were speechless for a while, what do you mean by more than three billion dollars?
They are roaring in their hearts, more than three billion dollars, what is the concept? Bill Gates smiled bitterly: "I can't compare with you, it's really only more than three billion dollars." ”
"That's right." Ji Cheng nodded slightly,
"To be honest, I don't feel interesting to buy stocks, if you really want to stimulate the stock market and make Microsoft's stock price rise, I can buy some shares of your company, and I don't need more, you can get together ten percent of the shares, I can buy them at a proper premium, only take dividends, it will not affect your company's decision-making, and I don't even need to enter your company's board of directors, at most send personal financial audits, what do you think of this proposal?" Bill Gates is overjoyed,
"Mr. Ji, is this true?"
"It can be clearly written into the contract." Ji Cheng does not contain a lake at all. Bill Gates was ecstatic and said, "Okay, I'll contact someone from this side of the company to come to New York now." Ji Cheng snorted,
"You have someone go directly to Joaquin Capital, I'll call Steve later. White said, fifteen percent premium, don't you think there's a problem? Perry and Matt were stunned when they heard this, Microsoft's market value is more than $3 billion, and if Ji Cheng buys 10% of the shares at a premium of 15 percent, wouldn't it be almost $400 million?
No way! More than $400 million in business is so simple and a few words? The most important thing is that I don't even mean to sit down and negotiate, just say a few words in the casino?
At this moment, Perry and Matt knew that Ji Cheng's wealth was far beyond them, and they were extremely shocked in their hearts, it turns out that you are not a multimillionaire, but a billionaire?
If it was someone else who was talking to Ji Cheng, Perry and Matt would probably think they were bragging, but Bill Gates in front of them is the idol of everyone in the computer industry, how could they not know that it must be true?
How can Bill Gates have an opinion, Ji Cheng's entry into a shareholder is equivalent to making his company usher in unprecedented good news, and the market value will definitely skyrocket in the future, all of their shareholders can benefit, the most important thing is that Ji Cheng doesn't need to get the company's decision-making, and he doesn't even need to enter the board of directors to occupy so many shares, he wishes that such shareholders are getting better and better.
"No, no, I'm going to let people come to New York." Bill Gates was excited. Ji Cheng said with a little disgust: "Since I'm done talking, I'm going to play with my friends, you see ......" How could Perry and Matt not understand that Ji Cheng was giving Bill Gates an eviction order, and suddenly sweated, and said in his heart You are too awesome, but the other party is Bill Gates, you just send it away in a few words?
However, they were relieved when they thought about it, after all, Ji Cheng just promised to buy Microsoft's shares of three or four billion US dollars, and everyone had to be polite.
It's just that they can't figure it out, what the hell does Ji Cheng do, he is so rich? Bill Gates quickly took his leave.
Ji Cheng pointed to the gaming table in front of him,
"You guys play first, I'll make a call."
"Okay."
"You're busy first." The two of them went to the gambling table absentmindedly, but their ears were pricked up to hear what Ji Cheng had to say on the phone.
Ji Cheng didn't run out either, so he took out his mobile phone next to the two and dialed Steve. White's phone,
"Steve, Microsoft will send someone over to talk about the transfer of shares, I promised to buy 10% of their shares at a premium of 15 percent, you can handle this matter yourself, oh, by the way, I said that I don't need any decision-making power, and I don't need to be on Microsoft's board of directors, these must be specified in the contract."
"Yes sir, I'll arrange it at once." Steve. White said.
"One more thing." Ji Cheng thought of it because he was chatting with Bill Gates about the acquisition of shares just now,
"You ask someone if Apple is willing to sell its shares, and if you are willing, you can also buy about 10 percent of Apple's shares, and if you don't want to, you can buy it at a premium, at most about 20 percent, and you must get Apple's shares anyway." Steve. White hurriedly said, "Okay, I'll find someone to go to Apple to discuss the purchase of shares." Ji Cheng hung up the phone with great satisfaction, he was not surprised that Bill Gates appeared here, after all, the other party liked to play Texas Hold'em when he was in college, and now the Golden Palace Casino Hotel in front of him is currently the best casino in the United States, as long as people who like to play, they will more or less come to take a look.
He was satisfied that he met Bill Gates here today, and thought that the market value of Microsoft and Apple in the current era is not high, one is more than $3 billion, the other is more than $4 billion, and he will be able to make a lot of money in the future, such as Microsoft, which will have a market value of more than $200 billion in ten years, and if he can keep 10 percent of the shares until then, it will be worth more than $20 billion, and how much money will be invested now?
It's only $400 million. Perry and Matt's attention was not at the gambling table at all, and when they heard again that Ji Cheng was going to buy 10% of the shares of Apple, another technology giant, the two looked at each other, as if they were asking each other, what is the origin of this Mr. Ji, so awesome?
Also Is Huajin Capital Mr. Ji's company? Is this company awesome? As a result, the two didn't even think to answer this question, and an endless stream of people noticed that Ji Cheng came over to say hello!
"Hello Mr. Ji, I didn't expect to see you here."
"Hehe, come over with a friend to have fun."
"Mr. Ji, do you remember me? I'm Zach from Goldman Sachs, and I visited your company and had the pleasure of meeting you a while ago when your company was negotiating business cooperation with us. ”
"Mr. Ji ......"
"Mr. Ji...... "There are too many people who come up to say hello!" Although most of the people did not know Perry and Matt, there were a few elders who had vaguely heard the name, and they were even more shocked at once!
Until they left the casino, both of them were dizzy, and they couldn't believe that Ji Cheng's social status was so high.
…… In the car. This time, Matt didn't have a car with Ji Cheng and Perry, he was so curious that he deliberately let Yin Lizabeth sit in Ji Cheng's car, and he sat in a car with Lily and Alice.
Then, he finally knew how awesome Ji Cheng was!
"What? Mr. Ji's company has assets of tens of billions of dollars? Is his girlfriend or Madonna? Oh my Fack, is it really fake? Matt was startled in the car, and then remembered that Perry didn't know Ji Cheng's true identity yet, and he couldn't wait to tell Perry, but unfortunately the two were not in the same car.
…… Night. Plaza Hotel. Because of the traffic jam on the road, the group arrived half an hour later than the appointment time.
Perry and the others thought that their seats might be canceled, but they didn't expect that although they saw a lot of people queuing up after entering, they came to a seat with an excellent position inside unimpeded.
As soon as he sat down here, Ji Chengcheng received a phone call,
"I'll go out and answer the phone, you guys order first." With that, he ran out. Perry was still wondering,
"This is the Plaza Hotel, we can still be half an hour late without being canceled?" Matt smiled bitterly and said, "Perry, you really don't know what Mr. Ji's status is?" Perry blinked, "I know, billionaire, but there are fifty or sixty billionaires in the United States, and no one seems to have this kind of treatment, right?" ”
"He's not the same as other billionaires!" Matt said hatefully: "Alice told me Mr. Ji's true identity just now, come, let me tell you, don't be rude because you don't know Mr. Ji's true identity, Mr. Ji is ......" After he finished speaking!
Perry suddenly exclaimed,
"Oh God!"
"What's wrong?" Matt asked, puzzled.
"Perry, what's wrong with you?"
"Why are you so surprised all of a sudden?" Alice and the others were also stunned. Perry pointed to the cover of the magazine in the hand of the woman next door who was reading the magazine with a frightened expression, and said in a trembling tone, "You...... Look at who is on the cover of Forbes magazine! Everyone looked in the direction he pointed, and saw that the cover character of Forbes magazine was Ji Cheng!
