Chapter 984: An Invitation

As for the part of the shares that Zhang Hao reserved for himself, and the other part of the shares that were directly transferred to the capital for cash, this is Zhang Hao's own right, even if Zhang Hao does not transfer the shares in the documents to Mark and Jimmy in this way with priority, according to the law, he can do so.

Mark and Jimmy glanced at each other, both of them saw what the other was thinking from their respective eyes, and then looked at Zhang Hao, who was still smiling calmly, and finally sighed at the same time.

"This is my application to resign as chairman, Mark, you are now the CEO of the company, and the company will rely on you in the future, and Jimmy, you have to help Mark more, I will not come to the company from tomorrow."

"Where are you going?" Jimmy hurriedly asked.

"Back to school, of course!" Zhang Hao shrugged his shoulders and smiled: "You won't forget that I am still a student, right?" I haven't finished my studies yet, and now that the company's affairs are done, of course, the next step is to go back to school to continue my studies. ”

"I ......." Jimmy was speechless, Zhang Hao said it was so reasonable, it was impossible for him to refute.

For a long time, Jimmy always thought that Zhang Hao, like Bill Gates, would end his studies early with the success of the company and devote his energy to the company. But he never expected that in Zhang Hao's most glorious moment, Zhang Hao not only transferred most of the shares he held, but also made the decision to leave the company and return to school to continue his studies, which is simply incomprehensible.

"Give me the wine!" At this time, Mark stretched out his hand towards Zhang Hao.

Zhang Hao handed the wine bottle to Mark, who took the wine and poured the wine into the wine glass he had just drunk, then raised the wine glass and said to Zhang Hao sincerely: "Mike, no matter what decision you make, we are still friends and partners forever." Come! For your decision, and for your glorious future, I respect you! ”

"To you! Mike! Jimmy suddenly understood, and quickly raised the wine glass in his hand.

"Thank you, thank you!" Zhang Hao's heart was moved, and a warm current made his eyes moisten a little, but he tried not to let the tears fall, stood up with a smile, and clinked glasses with Mark and Jimmy, and the three of them raised their hands to drink the wine in the glass.

The next day, the news of Zhang Hao's resignation as chairman of Netscape was known to many people, of course, the official news media did not report too much, but just came to such a sentence lightly, but after Zhang Hao left Netscape, Mark took over as the CEO of Netscape News was a big book.

In addition to giving part of the shares to Mark and Jimmy with priority and generous transfer conditions, Zhang Hao also retained a part of the shares as a shareholder of the company, but he is only a shareholder and will not participate in any operation of the company in the future.

In addition, Zhang Hao also transferred another part of his shares to the capital, although these shares are not much, but they are not small, about one-third of the shares originally owned by Zhang Hao. Some of these shares are discounted, and some are exchanged for other shares given by capital, because it is a private transaction, outsiders do not know how much Zhang Hao cashed out in it, but it is roughly guessed that Zhang Hao's actual cash out funds are estimated to be about 110 million to 120 million US dollars, and the shares exchanged are about this number.

In fact, Zhang Hao's cash-out funds are more than outsiders expected, in addition to the exchange of shares of other companies, the cash-out funds reached 136 million US dollars, and the proportion of shares of other companies exchanged is not much, but they are the shares of some old traditional companies, these shares have industrial, there are also shares in the banking and other financial industries, these companies and enterprises have stable stock prices, good returns, and are worth holding for a long time.

After dealing with the company's affairs, Zhang Hao felt a sense of relief. With the disclosure of his resignation as chairman of Netscape, coupled with the transfer of equity, the immigration bureau was silent all of a sudden, and the inquiries and communication on the phone two or three times a day before also disappeared instantly.

Although the immigration bureau will no longer harass Zhang Hao after making a choice, the tax department will definitely target Zhang Hao next, after all, such a large amount of cash, when the tax returns next year, this is a huge tax, Zhang Hao has sought the advice of a lawyer, and is ready to find a way to spend most of this money this year, so as not to be gnawed by the tax bureau when the time comes.

The itinerary to return to school has been set, and Zhang Hao has also entrusted an intermediary company to help him buy a house near the school in advance. Now that he has money in his hand, Zhang Hao doesn't plan to continue to live in the previous dormitory, and directly buys a suitable house and a suitable car.

Of course, Zhang Hao didn't think about buying a mansion or anything, it was too ostentatious, he was going to buy a bigger apartment, and then decorate the apartment well, at least to make himself look low-key.

In addition, the school's application for resumption of classes has also been submitted, and the school understands Zhang Hao's situation, and now Zhang Hao is willing to return to the school to continue his studies, and the school naturally welcomes it with both hands. But because of the need to go through the process, and the apartment has not been bought and renovated, Zhang Hao will not be able to go back until next month. However, because of Netscape, Zhang Hao's studies have been interrupted for nearly a year, and now he is not in a hurry for this time and a half, and it is not too late to start when everything is arranged.

These days, except for dealing with some trivial matters in California, Zhang Hao is very relaxed the rest of the time. Every day, I either read a book in a rented apartment, or review the lessons I had fallen behind, and sometimes I would go to Song Chaoyuan's company in California, as an assistant as before, doing something I liked, and as the days passed, Zhang Hao slowly got used to this rhythm.

Today, Zhang Hao went to the library, stayed in the library for a long time, and drove back to his apartment in the afternoon.

Entering the door of the apartment, the housekeeper, Ms. Vivian, greeted Zhang Hao kindly, this is a chubby white lady over 60 years old, Ms. Vivian has worked in this apartment for nearly 40 years, she is very careful, responsible, friendly and caring, and is deeply loved by the tenants here.

"Hello Ms. Vivien, this is for you, I bought a doughnut on the way back, I'm going to leave here in a few days, this is when I give you a little gift." Zhang Hao smiled and handed over the paper bag in his hand, and Vivian took it in surprise and grinned.

"This is so pleasantly surprised to me, thank you Mike, when are you leaving? I will miss you knowing that you are gone. ”

"Next week, I'm also a dear lady, you are the most beautiful and kind lady I have ever met, and I will always remember your ......." Zhang Hao and Vivian hugged and accepted each other's kiss on their cheeks, and said to Vivian at the same time.

"Kid, remember to come back when you have time." Vivian said to Zhang Hao reluctantly.

"I will, I will!" Zhang Hao promised.

"Oh, look at my brain, I almost forgot something." After hugging for a while, Vivian let go of Zhang Hao, suddenly thought of something and patted her forehead, she walked quickly to the side, put on reading glasses and rummaged behind the desk, and quickly found something from a pile of letters, and then handed it to Zhang Hao.

"Someone came looking for you this morning, but I told the other party that you were out, and the other party didn't wait long, and left this letter for me to pass on to you."

"Thank you, ma'am, thank you very much." Zhang Hao smiled and took the envelope and stuffed it into his pocket, then chatted with Vivian a few more words, then said goodbye, entered the elevator on the side, and took the elevator to his apartment on the sixth floor.

When he got home, Zhang Hao took off his coat and threw it on the sofa, and then sorted out some things he bought on the way home.

After tidying up, Zhang Hao went to the kitchen to make a simple dinner for himself, because he was the only one to eat, plus Zhang Hao has been in the United States for a long time, and he is basically used to Western diets.

Watching TV, eating dinner, Zhang Hao finished cleaning up the plate and everything after eating, and then went to take a shower and changed into dry clothes.

Coming out of the bathroom, Zhang Hao sat directly on the sofa and continued to watch TV, after a few glances, he noticed the coat that was thrown aside, and suddenly thought of the letter that Ms. Vivian gave him in front of him, Zhang Hao got up and found the letter from the pocket of his coat, and then looked carefully.

After a glance, Zhang Hao was a little puzzled, because the letter was a little thick, not like an ordinary letter, in addition to Zhang Hao's English name written on the envelope, there was only one signature of Long Feifeng Wu below, and this signature seemed to have been left by a person named Tom.

Tom? Zhang Hao thought about it in his mind, this is a very common English name, which is almost as common as his father's founding of the country, as well as similar Jianjun and Jianhua. However, there are few of his classmates and friends who are called Tom, and the only one who is called Tom in Zhang Hao's memory is probably the Tom in the cartoon.

Thinking of this, Zhang Hao couldn't help laughing, he opened the sealed envelope, and after opening it, he found that it was not a letter, but an invitation.

This invitation is not fancy, but it seems a little simple, but the dark pattern printed on it has an indescribable atmosphere.

When I opened the invitation, the content inside was also very simple, it was a few lines of handwriting, expressing the hope that Zhang Hao would find time to go to a place in Los Angeles, California, and welcome Zhang Hao's visit at any time.

At the end of the invitation, Zhang Hao saw Tom's signature on the envelope again, looking at this invitation, Zhang Hao was extremely puzzled, he didn't understand who this Tom was, how could this invitation suddenly be sent to him? And what was the purpose of letting him go somewhere in Los Angeles, California? Zhang Hao didn't understand it for a while, and finally simply didn't think about it, just threw the invitation aside, and continued to lie on the sofa and watch TV with relish.
