How could Yang Jing, who is familiar with the future development, let go of this apple that was bitten by the leader Qiao?

Moreover, with the strong character of the Qiao Gang Leader, if we don’t take action before the Qiao Gang Leader’s Glory returns to Apple, then once the Qiao Gang Leader is firmly settled in Apple, it will be difficult for outsiders to acquire Apple’s shares from the Qiao Gang Leader!

Seeing what the boss said was so certain, Henry Williams, who was a little suspicious, could only choose to believe his boss unconditionally again.

Henry Williams was also an executive of Lehman Brothers before. He was able to reach that position, and he was a very strong and thoughtful person. He could not get to such a high position at Goldman Sachs without temper and skills.

However, since he was poached KY Investment Fund more than ten years ago, he suddenly discovered that the strategic vision and strategic layout he once proud of was as weak as a little BABY in front of this mysterious Cole Smith.

Especially as KY Investment Fund defeated the crowd in the black swan market, Henry was delighted while also deeply impressed by the boss's accurate and incredible vision.

Henry claimed that he had been working hard in the financial world for a lifetime, but he had never seen such a powerful person. With KY Investment Fund growing like a snowball under the repeated command of his boss, Henry finally changed from being dissatisfied at the beginning to being unconditional believe now!

The financial world is a battlefield without gunpowder. Its cruelty may not be as bloody as the real battlefield, but the level of danger is no worse than the real battlefield - the financial world is also a cruel battlefield that lives to the death!

Therefore, whoever can lead his subordinates to survive on this cruel battlefield and continue to grow through incredible victory after another, then who is the person with the most say on this battlefield!

And his boss is undoubtedly the omnipotent man and commander standing at the top of this battlefield!

Since he said that the young man, Jobs, would return to Apple, there was a great possibility that Jobs would return to Apple under the command of his boss' invisible magic wand!

"Okay, boss, I will arrange for people to start contacting Apple's shareholders." Henry said obediently.

Yang Jing glanced at this subordinate who was second only to Old Mike, nodded slightly and said, "Enable contact is not enough. You can acquire it at a premium if necessary. But remember one thing, don't expose our existence. Now Apple has many shareholders, so you can acquire it in a diversified way and find more agents to acquire it."

"I understand! Don't worry, BOSS, this is how we have done this in recent years."

"Well, there is another thing you must pay attention to, that is, as soon as possible! Time cannot be delayed until the end of the year. Because according to my analysis, Jobs is very likely to take over Apple again by the end of the year. We will acquire enough Apple shares before Jobs returns to Apple."

Apple is really in a dangerous state of storm and now Apple is negotiating with Sun Computer Company and is preparing to incorporate it into Sun Computer Company as a whole.

Jobs absolutely did not allow his Apple to be acquired by others, so he must be operating Apple's acquisition of NeXT computers now.

Although Apple finally acquired the NeXT computer for $400 million, Yang Jing knew very well that Apple did not have such a large amount of funds to acquire Apple at that time, and the 400 million US dollars was eventually converted into Apple's shares and counted under the name of Jobs. At this stage, Apple's 400 million shares were enough to make Jobs the largest shareholder of Apple, and thus successfully take over Apple again.

Of course, even though the leader of the gang Qiao is a genius, it is hard to cook without rice. After he took over Apple, he still faced the dilemma of having no money to use. At that time, the vampires on Wall Street targeted Apple and wanted to inject capital into Apple. Even many executives and major shareholders within Apple agreed to inject capital into Wall Street.

But how could the leader Qiao, who was well versed in Wall Street, hand over the control he had just obtained so easily to those vampires?

He knew very well that those vampires came to him, otherwise when Apple was so embarrassed before, why wouldn't the vampires on Wall Street be invested?

Therefore, Gang Qiao refused Wall Street without hesitation! He didn't want to be a matchmaker on Wall Street!

Because Jobs rejected Wall Street, Apple's stock price continued to fall at that time. Everyone was not optimistic that Apple could be resurrected in Jobs' hands, even if it was Jobs who controls Apple now!

Because it is very simple, if you want to successfully pull the apples in the mud, you must have a large enough amount of funds. But where did you ask the leader of the Qiao Gang to get this money? Do you really have to go out to beg for the leader of the Beggars’ Sect?

But the leader of the Qiao Gang is the leader of the Qiao Gang. Just when everyone was about to watch the jokes of the boss of the Qiao Gang, the leader of the Qiao Gang actually attracted a fund that could only be described as "incredible"!

Because the leader of the gang Qiao actually pulled Bill Gates, who was the most unlikely to invest in!

Jobs is a recognized genius in the United States, but in the United States, there has never been a shortage of geniuses. Among the people in the same era as Joe Gang, there is a guy who is even more genius than him. The man's name is William Henry Gates III, and people are accustomed to calling this guy Bill Gates.

This guy who is the same age as Gang Qiao is an absolute genius. Perhaps it is not enough to describe him as genius, because he has created countless firsts!

There is no need to say more about Gates' glory in his life, but what many people may not know is that when Gates was working hard to develop the BASIC interpreter in the basement, Jobs had become synonymous with personal computers, worth one million yuan. In 1977, Jobs spent $5,000 to rent a striking booth at the West Coast Computer Exhibition to launch Apple II, the second-generation product of Apple. At that time, Gates met his idol Jobs as one of thousands of fans. This was also the first time Gates and Jobs met.

This meeting also opened the curtain of love and death between two geniuses. At that time, I am afraid no one would have thought that the first encounter between the two of them at this computer exhibition would be the prelude to the changes in the US IT industry in the next 20 years!

It is well known that the conflict between Microsoft and Apple is constantly changing business competition. Before the new century, Microsoft dominated the market, but after the new century, Apple emerged and defeated Microsoft. The bosses behind these two companies have always been a pair of old rivals.

In fact, when the two started, there was no conflict between the two. On the contrary, because they were fans of the Qiao Gang Master, the richest man wanted to cooperate with the Qiao Gang Master. However, the arrogant leader of the Qiao Gang refused the olive branch handed over by the richest man, which opened the curtain for the love and death between the two.

In the late 1970s, Joe Gangmaster was temporarily ahead of the richest man, but as the richest man began to cooperate with IBM in 1980, the richest man became the money-dig expert at that time, and his net worth quickly surpassed Jobs and became the richest man in the world. He transformed from a small fan back then to a technology tycoon.

Four years later, Microsoft has been booming, but Gates didn't think about playing alone. In 1984, Bill Gates brought Excel, Word, and Chart to Apple to negotiate with Jobs, but Jobs directly rejected Gates, so Gates turned around and sold the product to IBM, which also meant that the first cooperation between Gates and Jobs failed.

Since 1984, Microsoft has been rising steadily. With the advent of the Windows operating system, it has allowed the richest man to become the richest man in the world. In contrast, Apple, Joe Gangmaster was forced to resign, but the company insisted on bundling software and hardware, ignored partners, and did not provide technical support for compatibility before the development and listing of the new system, thus driving away all partners. The glorious era is gone forever, and until now, the company is about to declare bankruptcy.

Moreover, Apple's patent lawsuit against Microsoft has not stopped for more than ten years. Although all this has nothing to do with Joe's gang leader, there is no doubt that Microsoft and Apple have been in a state of great power over the years.

In this case, at the most critical moment, Jobs brought an investment of up to $150 million from his rival Apple, of course, the price was 18.2 million shares of Apple stocks with priority!

The funds saved Apple in danger, and in return, Apple gave up lawsuits for Microsoft's copyright infringement and built-in Internet Explorer and Office on every Macintosh. In a sense, this time it was the richest man who saved Joe's gang leader.

Of course, this is also the only time that Gang Qiao has sold Apple shares on a large scale after returning to Apple.

In fact, Yang Jing was also very envious of these 18.2 million preferred stocks. He bought so many stocks for US$150 million, and the price per share was only US$8.25. But Yang Jing knew very well that these stocks did not belong to him, and he would not be able to force them.

One is that Jobs could not sell this part of the stock to KY Investment Fund, because in the eyes of Joe's gang leader, the KY Investment Fund at this time also belongs to the category of vampires on Wall Street.

The second is that if you move this share by yourself, it will inevitably lead to a certain amount of time and space paradox.

Although Yang Jing was very envious of these 18.2 million shares, he did not want to lose a lot of treasure because of these shares.

At this time, it is not that Apple's stock is difficult to buy, but that no one buys it at all. Even if Apple's shareholders want to sell their stocks, no one takes over it. It is easy to intervene in Apple at this time, and there is no need to lose a lot of treasure for those stocks.

However, when it comes to the stocks that the richest man bought for $150 million, Yang Jing was also a little sad. It is true that the richest man is a genius, but his genius is not in this regard.

According to the US Securities Act, the 18.2 million shares purchased by the richest man in August 1997 will be lifted into common stock after three years.

In August 2000, Steve Ballmer, who had just become Microsoft CEO, decided to start cleaning up the stocks in Microsoft's hands. Because Apple had not launched the iPod at this time, it was actually just a few months away.

If Apple's iPod was launched before August 2000, I'm afraid the richest man and Ballmer wouldn't be so anxious to clear out this batch of stocks.

At that time, the 18.2 million shares of Apple stock were cashed out by Microsoft, with a return on investment of about 20%. This investment of the richest man cannot be said to be a failure.

But at that time, neither the richest man nor Ballmer would have thought that if they could have the patience to continue holding these stocks, then the market value of these stocks would be as high as US$9.1 billion in fifteen years!

The richest man and Ballmer can only pay for their investment vision because they made less than $8.95 billion...
