Rebirth of the Financial Overlord

Steven Jobs's face was blue, and blue veins appeared on his forehead.

　　Because, this guy who swaggered around in his office to give pointers was Rowe Wayne who kicked him out of Apple.

　　 And now this guy dares to come to the door to humiliate him, that is absolutely unkind.

　　 Jobs had always been worried about being kicked out of the game by this partner who was a friend. Now that he heard this, he wanted to buy the company he had put in all his efforts to turn over, and he gritted his teeth.

　　 To be honest.

　　 For an animation studio, Rowe Wayne has no interest at all.

　　 Not at all.

　　 But the company's major shareholder Shen Jiannan is interested in this company, and he can take the opportunity to ridicule and suppress Jobs, and Rowe Wayne is very interested.

　　What is happiness?

　　 Happiness is to see that your enemy is unhappy, that is happiness.

　　 If you can still get some benefits, it is double happiness.

　　 Jobs didn't like Rowe Wayne. Similarly, Rowe Wayne didn't like this guy. At this time, seeing this former partner, the bereaved dog was so angry that he laughed happily.

　　 "Oh. Stephen, my old friend. Is that how you welcome your old friend? God. What about your cultivation and quality?"

　　 Steven Jobs is about to crush his teeth.

　　 He has been following Apple’s changes all the time. Last year he saw Apple’s market value plummeting, and he felt his own opportunity came while he was heartbroken.

　　 As long as you make your Pixar bigger, you will still have the opportunity to get everything that belongs to you in the future.

　　 Unexpectedly, the **** Row Wayne came to the door.

　　 After trying to adjust his breathing, Jobs said with a sullen face: "You don't pretend to be here. Just say what you want to do. If there is nothing wrong, please go out."

Rowe Wayne tweeted twice, took out the checkbook from his pocket as a winner, and said, "Didn’t I say, I think you’re pretty good here, how much money I bought. 50 million dollars, Or one hundred million? You just make a price."

　　 Hearing this, Jobs smiled without anger: "Do you think I will believe your words? Given the company's current financial situation, do you have the money to buy my company?"

　　Ro Wayne looked at Jobs pity, like a stray dog, which made people feel particularly uncomfortable.

　　 Until Jobs's discoloration changed, he said, "You are really a frog at the bottom of the well. Wouldn't you turn on the computer to see how well I have developed the company? God, why should I tell a fool like you?"

　　 Jobs was startled, and his color changed instantly.

　　 When I turned on the computer, I couldn't help shaking.

　　 Apple’s continued low prices have rebounded by 30% from the bottom.

　　 Looking at the information about the major shareholders who increased their holdings, Jobs felt that everyone was dumbfounded.

　　The largest shareholder: First International Capital.

　　 The second largest shareholder: Jiuding Bank.

　　 The third largest shareholder: Nanbo Bank Investment No. 2 Fund.

　　 The top three shareholders account for 53% of the total outstanding shares...

　　 Look at the news again.

First International Capital increased its shareholding in Apple by US$600 million..., First International Capital CEO Shen Jiannan said that he is very optimistic about the future economy of the United States and has very high expectations for the future development of Apple. I believe Under the leadership of President Rowe Wayne, Apple will bring new technological advancements to society...

　　 Like an old lion who was snatched from a lioness, Jobs roared: "Wayne, you bastard, how can you sell the company to outsiders."

　　 Jobs was blown up.

　　 As one of the geniuses of capital operation, he could tell at a glance that this is an agreement reached between Rowe Wayne and foreign capital.

　　 And the multinational giant like First International Capital has become the largest shareholder of Apple. Even if he makes the current company ten times, one hundred times bigger, he will not be able to get back everything that belongs to him from this giant.

Rowe Wayne was very satisfied with Jobs's desperate look. He stunned the 10,000-dollar tie on his neck and said indifferently: "If you have money to make money, why don't I sell it? Cooperating with First International Capital, the company will get better. Development, don’t you think that I am better than you?"

　　 Jobs stared at Rowe Wayne and cursed: "You short-sighted capitalist."

　　Ro Wayne was not ashamed but proud of this sentence, straightened his torso and said, ‘Thank you for the praise! Now, make a price for your company. ’

　　 There were bursts of tingling on the fingers, and then the tingling spread along the arms to the heart, causing a huge dizziness.

　　 Jobs covered his heart and said, "Don't think that you can do whatever you want with money. I will never sell the company to a capitalist like you."

Rowe Wayne saw that Jobs was so angry that he was covering his heart with the triumph of the winner. He took out the checkbook and said, "You are so naive and cute. Now you have only two choices. Sell ​​it to me. Or, I’ll go talk to your employees now and buy them all. At that time, if you can’t complete your contract with Disney, just wait for the defendant to go bankrupt."

　　 "By the way, no matter who you hire, I will buy them. Do you think someone will use love to generate electricity for you?"

　　 After finishing speaking, Rowe Wayne laughed cheerfully.

　　 This partner who was better than himself in the past is so helpless at this time, this feeling is really cool.

　　 But Jobs was so angry that he almost died, clutching his heart, gritting his teeth and cursing: "You are shameless..."

　　Ro Wayne just shrugged and said, "I have chosen for you. I hope you will make a decision as soon as possible tomorrow. For the sake of an old friend, I will give you one day."

　　 After finishing speaking, Rowe Wayne left with a big laugh.

　　 Jobs looked at him from behind, feeling that his strength was emptied, and he collapsed on the chair.

　　 This kind of capital's dimensionality reduction blow is simply not something he can resist.

How to do?

How to do?

　　 Thinking of what Rowe Wayne said, one burst of pain spread from the heart.

　　 Roy Wayne’s always shameless and shameless will definitely do this. If the owner of the company is poached at a high price, he will definitely be sued for bankruptcy if he fails to perform the animation delivery contract with Disney.

This is how to do?

　　 The eyes are black.

　　 Stephen Jobs turned purple and fell to the desk.

　　 California Mekanda Hospital, ICU ward.

　　 A white-haired Steven Jobs is lying on the bed and not knowing the personnel.

　　 Shen Jiannan was outside the glass window, looking at this legendary figure who should have been recorded in history, his eyes were flat and his face was calm.

　　 Next to him, Rowe Wayne couldn't see what his boss was thinking, and he was a little worried. He didn't expect that a few words of his own actually put Jobs into the ICU so angry.

　　 The doctor has just notified Jobs's wife and asked her to prepare for the funeral.

　　 This guy is too careless.

　　 I couldn't see Shen Jiannan's happiness and anger, and Luo Wayne said in a whisper: "I didn't expect this to happen."

　　 Shen Jiannan turned around and strode out of the hospital. He didn't lower the glass until he got in the car. Wayne said, "Tomorrow, I need to see the news that Pixar was acquired."

　　 Rolls Royce, has gone away with the lights on.

　　 Luo Wayne was shivered by a burst of cold shivering, but thinking of Shen Jiannan's last words, it was another ecstasy.

　　 With the means of this financial giant, as long as he wins Pixar, the company's stock price will rise again as long as he manipulates it, and his net worth can also be doubled.

　　 Soon, Jobs’s wife, Lona Powell, rushed to the hospital from Manhattan.

　　 This strategist who is doing variety income at Goldman Sachs is obviously much more rational.

　　 Apple, recently the hottest topic in the market, has received a large-scale capital injection from First International Capital. It cannot compete with the acquisition of Pixar anyway.

　　 On the contrary, with the despicable means of the Eastern Devil, Pixar can even be completely destroyed, and the company can be turned into an empty shell without a dime.

　　 Unless a large consortium like Rockefeller or Goldman Sachs can help.

　　 But Rockefeller will not be interested in animation studios. Goldman Sachs also mainly cooperates with the Fed, and it will certainly not be at odds with First International Capital because of Pixar.

　　 Several trade-offs.

　　Launa Powell, as the legal heir, signed a Pixar equity transfer contract with Apple.

　　 The next day.

　　 Apple issued an announcement: The company acquired 100% of Pixar Animation for US$120 million.

　　 On the same day, Apple’s stock price soared 16%, and the market rose to 3 billion US dollars.

　　 Three days later.

　　 The Silicon Valley News published a piece of news: Stephen Jobs, one of the founders of Apple, died yesterday at the Mecanta Hospital in California.

at this time.

　　 Apple headquarters meeting room.

　　 More than a dozen major shareholders from various countries sat in the conference room, listening to the analysis of the company's operating policies in the second half of the year by the president, Jean Louis Gassy.

　　 Since 1985, due to the limitations of Microsoft's patents on the computer industry, the market share of Apple products has been declining.

　　Because most computers are used for commercial purposes, the main value lies in the software loaded on the computer.

　　Almost all software developed is designed for windows, every software developer must make a choice: only spend the necessary money to create programs for windows or spend almost twice the money to eat apples.

　　 As a result, Apple’s sales have been greatly affected and continue to decline.

Jean-Louis Gassi was previously the head of the French branch. As one of the world’s largest luxury brands, Gassi believes that the product line should be pushed in two directions, that is, more “open” and higher prices. He sells low-end and low-profit Apple products will only erode the added value of the brand.

　　 If you create a more advanced brand and take a cutting-edge route, it may be able to make up for the decline in profits caused by the decline in market share.

　　 Major shareholders are investment institutions from various countries.

　　 After listening to Jean-Louis Gassy’s speech, he turned to Wang Jianchuan, the representative of First International Capital, the largest shareholder.

　　 This senior student who graduated from Tsinghua University in the past joined First International Capital not long ago and is responsible for the shareholder representative of Apple.

At this time, I saw a pair of eyes cast over and said: "I think. The company’s current problem is not a market problem, but a problem with our own technology that is seriously threatened by Microsoft. Compared with the product’s increased brand value, the core technology’s Only by improving can the company develop in the long run."

　　 This proposal immediately drew opposition from other major shareholders.

　　 Microsoft's core computer technology accounts for more than 90%. Apple wants to break through its defenses under this monopoly. It is simply hitting the rocks with pebbles.

　　 "The company's current profits can still be seen. There is no shortage of wealthy people in various countries. I support the Canadian West strategy. If the added value of the brand is re-developed, I believe it can make up for the loss of market share."

　　 "The research and development of the core system requires very high costs, and the company's finances are currently not enough to support us in developing technologies that can compete with Microsoft."

　　 "Mr. Wang, I think you have ignored the obstacles that Microsoft software has on us. Even if we can improve our core technology, we cannot compete with Microsoft. This is not worth the gain."

　　 "......"

　　 opposed.

　　 All objections.

　　 In addition to Wang Jianchuan’s identity as a Chinese, it is also a clear objection.

　　 Under the premise of being able to cooperate, it is undoubtedly a very uneconomical business to invest in high costs.

that's it.

　　 Wang Jianchuan faintly looked at everyone's opposition, and then said: "Then we shall vote."

　　 This is the practice of the board of directors.

　　 When there is a major policy disagreement, vote to solve the problem.

　　 When Wang Jianchuan said this, many old major shareholders raised their opponents.

One......

　　 two...

　　 Three...

　　 Fifteen shareholder representatives raised twelve hands.

　　 is all against.

　　 faintly swept a circle of major shareholders who raised their hands, Wang Jianchuan also raised his hands: "Holding 53% of the shares."

　　My grass mud horse!

　　 A crowd of people who raised their hands almost wanted to scold their mother.

　　 This is a special thing for everyone to vote, you play a vote to veto, isn't it a player.

However, Wang Jianchuan ignored the reactions of these people and said: "The company’s current problems are not just due to technical problems. Our products are too scattered. We can completely reduce the number of engineers, software development efforts, and the number of distributors. , Concentrate limited energy and funds on the blade."

　　 "At the same time. The production cost in the United States is too high, and we can completely build the assembly line, the UUkanshu.com production line, in an underdeveloped country with lower cost."

　　 "For example, Huaxia."

　　 "China’s labor cost per person’s monthly salary is around US$80. Moreover, there is no need to pay additional expenses such as insurance. On this basis, our production costs can be reduced by at least ten times, or even twenty times."

　　 Fifty dollars?

　　 a month?

　　The major shareholders present are all stupid.

　　The salary in the United States is about 300 yuan a week, and workers are also required to pay various government social insurances.

　　 Everyone needs to pay more than two thousand U.S. dollars per month in labor costs.

　　 And these are just ordinary workers.

　　Electronics production is a labor-intensive industry. Therefore, Apple's labor expenditures occupy a huge cost.

　　If production costs can be reduced on a large scale, then the company's competitiveness in the market can reduce prices and greatly increase market share.

　　 Wang Jianchuan looked at the whispering shareholders and executives, and continued: “We can continue to submit Microsoft’s monopoly to the Ministry of Justice. Their unlimited monopoly poses a fatal threat to all companies in Silicon Valley.”

　　 "According to the Antitrust Act, Microsoft's software has mandatory installation, which is a huge obstacle to technological progress. We can contact other companies to request the Department of Justice to conduct an antitrust investigation."
