Chapter Six Hundred and Thirty Third Anti-Guest-Based
"Zuke, I didn't expect you to come too."
Little Edward Roski said sitting next to Zucker.
Hearing this, Zu Ke said angrily: "Dude, I should ask you this."
"Hahaha~"
Suddenly, little Edward laughed and said in a low voice: "I was also put in a row. A few days ago, I received a call from Menard, and he cried a lot to me on the phone. He also said what happened to Home Depot and Lowe's. So bullied, how the market was robbed..."
"You know me, I have always been a very loyal person, and I hate to see my friends being bullied. No, when I hear that Menard is being bullied, how can I sit still? I rushed over immediately. "
Zucker shrugged his shoulders and scolded with a smile: "You're also high-sounding enough. After all, aren't you greedy for the shares of Menaz's home improvement?"
Little Edward said embarrassingly: "Everyone is each other."
Who doesn't love the shares of Menards Home Improvement?
When it comes to investing, sometimes... it's more about investing in someone!
Some people's projects will be great and have great market prospects, but there are often problems with decision makers themselves, resulting in more serious and irreparable losses;
Such examples are simply too numerous to enumerate.
Before Microsoft became the overlord in the field of computer systems, there were not too many types of computer systems on the market, but they were eventually defeated by Microsoft one by one.
What is the reason?
In addition to the excellence of Microsoft's own products, Bill Gates is the leader of Microsoft, and he is undoubtedly very qualified and excellent.
"The same goes for Menards home improvement."
Little Edward said eloquently: "I have known Menard for more than ten years. In the 1970s, he was just a poor boy who was just starting out, but can you believe it? He has worked in several home improvement companies successively, and he has not saved a single penny. All he wants to do is to thoroughly understand the industry, and for this perseverance and spirit alone, he is worth being invested in.”
Zucker: "......"
Hearing this, even Zhu Ke was moved.
a long time.
Zhu Ke said faintly: "I can't see it,
Menard is still a job-hopping king! "
Little Edward had a black line and gritted his teeth: "Man, can you be serious, I'm telling you why he is worth investing in, what are you talking about?"
"Sorry, sorry."
Zucker quickly waved his hand.
In the following time, Edward Jr. made a brief introduction to Zhu Ke about the other investors who came at this moment.
Nemo, known as the "Dairy King", is the largest dairy farmer and meat food provider in Wisconsin, with a net worth of hundreds of millions;
Colon Eifield, the owner of the Wisconsin Green Miracle Company, who specializes in felling trees, transporting trees, and buying and selling flowers, his net worth is not to be underestimated;
Sinkiers, a well-known iron ore and coal mine owner in Wisconsin, also owns a number of mining bases in overseas Australia;
......
"Dairy, forestry, mining, paper, transport..."
Zhu Ke clenched his fingers and counted: "In addition, you are in the real estate industry, I'm in the media industry, good guy~ Menard is cunning enough, and the investors he chooses, except you, are basically individuals. A layman in the field of home improvement!"
Little Edward nodded and said, "The cunning is for sure. He can still be alone and completely control the Menards' home decoration. However, on the other hand, isn't such a cunning and shrewd person worth investing in?"
ok~
Zucker couldn't refute.
Menards Home Improvement can stand out in the future and become the third largest personal home improvement chain brand in the United States after Home Depot and Lowe’s. The company’s valuation has exceeded tens of billions of dollars before listing.
John Menard Jr. is a man who can lead a business forward.
After some wrangling of various contract terms, Zhu Ke and other investors left one after another. After all, the conclusion of the contract cannot be done in a day or two.
Investing, the first concept is to be cautious!
"Man, you didn't tell Zucker about what I'm coming for?"
Little Edward asked suddenly.
John Menard Jr. did not answer immediately, but looked around first.
Little Edward interrupted: "Don't look at it, Zucker left early. If he was here, I wouldn't ask you this."
"Shh~"
Hearing this, Menard breathed a sigh of relief and said in a low voice, "Edward, don't say this out loud, it would be bad if others heard it."
"I understand~"
Little Edward nodded extremely perfunctoryly, and then said, "You deliberately concealed the news of my arrival and the news of other investors, because you were worried that Zucker would turn against customers in the future?"
Menard said solemnly: "You know, Zucker is too rich. If there are no other investors to check and balance him, then my company... The future is whether I will make the decision, or whether he will make the decision, no one can say. "
Little Edward didn't say much.
He understood.
As the founder of a company, anyone will worry about being invaded by capital, thereby losing the management right of the company.
What's more, Zhu Ke has a case first!
The famous McAfee (antivirus) software was founded by George Samenook, and it has grown to become one of the world's largest antivirus software companies, but now?
Zucker turned against the customer and became the chairman of McAfee, the largest shareholder, and George Samenook was swept out by Zucker.
Notorious!
"Zuck is too rich. As long as he's a human being, who doesn't worry about him being a customer? Don't tell me, I remember that he is also the major shareholder of your Rossi property, don't you say you're not worried?"
Menard whispered.
Little Edward: "..."
At this moment, little Edward wanted to curse.
Zhu Ke's recent reputation is indeed a bit bad. After all, it's hard to say that it's annexing other companies and driving away the founder!
......
at the same time.
Mooresville is a small town in Airdre County, North Carolina.
In this small city with a population of only tens of thousands, a well-known company in the United States was born, called Lowe's.
Lowe's is the second largest personal home improvement chain brand in the United States. It has more than 400 stores in the United States and has a market value of more than 70 billion US dollars. It is an uncompromising home improvement giant, second only to the number one. The Home Depot.
At least the current Menards home improvement is compared to it, which is a younger brother.
Lowe's Corporate Headquarters.
"what?"
"That guy Zucker Wald went to Eau Claire, Wisconsin, yes, he must have been there for the Maynards, or he was greeted by that old guy from Menard. "
At this moment, Robert Niblok, the CEO of Lowe's, was shocked.
Zucker Wald?
This name was only known in the entertainment media industry and the financial industry before, but since the release of the "Forbes" rich list in November 2001, one of the executives and rich people of large companies in the United States has counted one, and who has never heard of Zhu gram's name? !
"Boss, we must act quickly. Once Zucker Wald becomes a shareholder of Maynards Home Improvement, it will bring great cash flow to Maynards Home Improvement. At that time, our market competitors will not only have one Home Depot. company."
The assistant said anxiously.
"I know."
CEO Robert Nyblok said annoyed: "I want to stop it too, but what can I do?"
Yes, there is nothing he can do to stop it.
After a pause, he said, "The person who should be most worried is not our company, but Home Depot, the big brother in the industry."
But...he was equally unaware of the concerns of John Menard Jr., owner of the Menards Home Improvement Company.
John Menard Jr. needs both Zucker's funds and media channels, and he is also worried that Zucker will turn against customers.
Why would the future streaming giant Netflix reject Zucker's stake?
Isn't it because he is worried that Zu Ke will turn against the guest as the master!
" "The third is sent.
