Rebirth

It should be said that Li Feng was with Qiao's gang leader at the beginning of the reception. Obviously, Li Feng was moved. Apple is an important part of Li Feng's future.

"I have to say, Steve, you really know Apple best. I haven't congratulated you yet. The iMac has responded well since its launch last year." After recounting the old days with the three of them, Li Feng officially opened the topic about Apple. Praised.

"Haha..., that is, John, no matter how you say it, thank you for the support of your board of directors and the operation of the company. Without your support, it might not be so smooth."

After hearing Li Feng's compliment, the leader Qiao responded with a smile. However, the arrogant Qiao leader remembered that Li Feng was a major shareholder of Apple and thanked Li Feng.

"Steve, I think you should have a deep understanding of the various opposition and troubles on the board of directors. With the launch of the iMac last year, it won a part of the market, allowing Apple to get rid of the previous financial crisis and the future. The trouble may be more and more, don't you think you have no idea?" Li Feng said to Jobs with a smile.

"Uh…!!!"

Except for the sudden choking of Qiao's gang leader, neither Larry Ellison nor Tim Cook remained silent, but the two of them were also holding their wine glasses and shaking them slightly at this time, showing that the two of them were not at peace.

"John, you promised me that you won't increase Apple's shares in the future. You won't break your promise?" Qiao Gang asked back with a serious face and a little worried.

...

"Steve, what I promised will naturally be followed. I'm just worried about Apple's future. You should understand that as Apple's finances improve, apart from those who originally supported you, the voices of opposition are not small. Don't you think this will become a hidden danger for Apple in the future?

Of course, I also know your situation with Steve. Since you have regained control of Apple, Steve, why don’t you increase your voice in Apple? Is it really a promise that you will not buy Apple shares when you return to Apple? , Only those option shares?"Li Feng asked with a curious look.

Yes, Li Feng is really curious to be honest.

The grievances and grievances between the previous life about Apple and the Qiao gang, as the later generations of apples soar into the sky, naturally spread all over the world, even Li Feng, who is not a fruit fan, has heard of it.

Anyway, Steve Jobs, who returned to Apple, did not have any shares in Apple. He was actually just a worker of Apple. Although later Apple took off under the impetus of the Qiao gang, as far as the Qiao gang himself is concerned, there is no wealth. How much in return is just to gain a reputation.

Ordinarily, the most valuable of Qiao Gang's hands is actually Pixar Animation Studios. Pixar was listed in 1995. With the listing of Toy Story in 1996, Pixar's market value has skyrocketed, and Joe's Gang has reached the level of $1 billion.

As Pixar cooperated with Disney to sign a series of animation productions, Pixar's market value has exceeded 2 billion US dollars, and the value of Joe's gang has naturally skyrocketed again.

But now Apple’s market value is only about 2 billion before the return of the Qiao gang, but after the return, it has rebounded slightly. After the launch of the iMac in 97, as the Imac sold out, the market value of Apple has risen a lot. Now it is nearly 3 billion. It has been less than 2 years since the return of the Qiao gang, and the market value has increased by 50%.

...

In such a comparison, it can be seen that the market value of just one Pixar is close to or equivalent to that of Apple. Li Feng is actually very curious, why the leader of Qiao Gang does not have any Apple shares except for some options stocks as the company's CEO.

"I want to increase my voice in Apple, but if I announce the acquisition of some shares of Apple, the voice against me will be even louder." Gang Lord Joe replied grimly.

"What are you afraid of? You have to know that Steve is standing behind me. I promised you that as long as you are not retired and are willing to take charge of Apple, I trust you 100%. My shares are enough to guarantee your certain words. Right, let’s say, there are always some people in Apple who still support you. Isn’t that not enough for you to control?

If there are really objections, you simply kick them out, just to take advantage of this opportunity, you can regain part of Apple's shares, that would not be better!"Li Feng suggested with a smile.

"But I have no money. Besides, John, are you planning to take advantage of the fire and buy shares in Apple?" Qiao's gang leader listened to Li Feng's bad idea and immediately replied in an angry voice.

"Shit, I said, as long as you don't retire from Apple, I will support you 100% and you can sign an agreement. Are you worried about anything?" Li Feng immediately replied secretly.

"Steve, I think you can consider John's proposal. As the company's controller, the former founder, now he doesn't have any shares in the company. In a sense, it is indeed a failure." With a strong desire for control, Larry Ellison, a friend of Joe's gang leader, also made a statement.

You know, at Oracle, Larry Ellison is absolutely a dictator, but Oracle is Larry Ellison's word.

"Larry, you know, if this is the case, Apple will be in chaos again." Gang Master Qiao still valued Apple very much in his heart, and suddenly spoke helplessly to his friend.

"Steve, I feel that long-term pain is worse than short-term pain." Tim Cook also interjected.

"..."

...

Good guy, following Li Feng’s suggestion, his old friend Larry Ellison and one of his new succession candidates, Tim Cook, are now uncharacteristically supporting Li Feng’s suggestion, which makes Joe’s gang master Suddenly fell into conflict.

It is true that Qiao's helper has no money to buy it.Although Joe's gang is worth more than 1 billion, they are all Pixar's market value stocks, and they are not cash. It is obviously impossible to say that Joe's gang is not interested in Apple's shares. No, it is tangled.

"But where does the money come from?" Clan Leader Joe finally muffled after being lost in thought.

"Steve, you are really fainted, John opened a bank, and it is a world-class big bank." Larry Ellison glanced at Li Feng, and the thief replied with a smile.

"Uh... don't, I usually don't care, but I can introduce Steve."

"What are you waiting for, John, you call your CSCB president."

"Shit, you can't decide what is urgent."

"Larry, it's not in a hurry, let's talk about it after the reception anyway." Qiao's gang leader also laughed and said haha.

"Actually, Steve, I have a good suggestion, do you want to listen." Li Feng's eyes rolled, and he suddenly smiled and spoke to the leader of Qiao.

"John, you didn't have the idea of ​​playing Pixar?" Seeing Li Feng's appearance, the leader of Qiao suddenly reacted and immediately shot back.

"Uh..., Steve, am I not doing this for you?"

"Shit, after talking for a long time, it turns out that John made this idea. I really think you are thinking about me."

"Steve, I am not achieving a win-win situation. Although it seems that Pixar is developing well at the moment, but to be honest, Pixar is just like that. And the prospect of Apple, as the president of Apple, should be very clear. Using Pixar's shares to exchange Apple's shares, didn't you make a profit?" Li Feng argued with a smile.

"Edit..., just go ahead and edit it." Gang Leader Joe replied angrily

"Uh…"

...

Seeing the angry look of Qiao Gang and the look of Larry Ellison and Tim Cook watching the show beside him, Li Feng was speechless.

In fact, whether it is the leader of Qiao, Larry, Tim and others, they all understand that Pixar is only engaged in animation special effects, and the technical content is that. It is naturally incomparable with Apple, although looking at Pixar’s stock price It has been soaring.

But the company is not just based on market value and stock price. Just like Lockheed Martin, Boeing and Penguin in later generations, if the market value of the two companies combined is not as good as Penguin.
