Chapter 946: A Conversation Between Two Playwrights
"Boss, Steve said he was coming over today."
"This guy, okay, okay, I won't eat with him, it'll be fine after lunch. By the way, how does this guy know I'm back?"
The little assistant gave this guy a blank look, which meant, what an idiot you are! Could it be that you don't read newspapers, and don't let others read newspapers.
"Tsk, forget it, let them prepare lunch earlier, tacos are just fine, I won't go down and eat them."
"Okay, boss, I'll arrange it right away."
Since Niu Bijian managed well, there was no need for him to stay longer in Xiangjiang. However, he came back, but his wife and son stayed in Xiangjiang.
He heard about an old thief capsized in a gutter. I don't care at all, it's hard to say, anyway, it doesn't feel too special. From Xiaohu's point of view, this guy's brain is all about muscles, and it doesn't involve the selection of targets.
Well, since this is the case, there is no way to take death.
Whether you are good or bad, William White has no interest in knowing. Treating his son as a backup would have been a sure thing, no bargaining at all. If you are lucky, you may die more comfortably, but if you are unlucky, you may die for a few days.
"Cigars? Well, you don't want to. God, Steve, you're already a billionaire, I said, should you have some bad habits. Or, some quirks are fine."
"You'd better smoke less, it's not healthy."
William White was speechless. People who have always talked about their health died of diseases. Is this a prank by God?
"Okay, okay, let me guess, Apple is going to invite you back."
William White's words were right, God Joe was not surprised. However, after being told the truth, a little discomfort is also obvious.
"Yes, Gil Amelio can't hold on anymore, they are looking for a third-party cooperative company. NeXT, entered the alternative."
"Congratulations, Old Joe, this is really great, you can finally realize your dream."
William White's expression is very rich, including surprise, surprise, and shock, which means, that's great, my friend, I'm so happy for you.
Jobs frowned, and said rather melancholy: "Maybe I care too much about Apple. However, the bids of these bastards are too low."
William White knew very well that this guy was here to show off, but he had to pretend to be reluctant.
Nima, you are almost like Hongguoguo saying, praise me, come quickly, I can't wait.
"Indeed, Apple really can't do without you. Look at what they have done. The market share of 16% has dropped to 4%.
Yes, they do need a shot in the arm. "
William White immediately flattered me, buddy here holds 3.5% of Apple stock, if you come back soon, won't I be able to make money again?
"Well, the bid is a bit low. These bastards, if NeXT goes public independently, it will have at least a $700 million valuation."
Cough cough, cough cough, William White could spit out a mouthful of old blood. Your company is worthless without the support of hardware manufacturers. A total of tens of thousands of workstations were sold, how could it be worth 700 million.
"Steve, the audience is too small. It's expensive for someone else to buy you. If you operate independently, man, how do you describe your market potential to users?"
Jobs gave this guy a blank look. If it wasn't for this reason, he would have rejected it early in the morning.
"Tch, don't think I don't know, you have been secretly buying Apple's stock. So, you are optimistic about this deal?"
It is not surprising that Jobs knew William White. The goal of White Capital is so big that it is impossible to hide it.
"Is it a lot? No, it's all in the investment department. I don't pay much attention to it. It shouldn't exceed 5%.
Why, if you plan to join forces with me, privatization and delisting are not impossible. "
The meaning of William White is very clear, let's not joke, unless we join forces, otherwise, that apple looks rare to you, but it is of little value to me.
Jobs did not reject William White's intrusion. This guy likes to invest in high-tech companies, which is not new on Wall Street.
Old Joe's mind, William White also guessed a seven or eight. If unsurprisingly, he was just waiting for an opportunity.
"Old Joe, in this case, what will Gil Amelio do?"
"Is there a conflict? I'm only responsible for one of the products."
William White shrugged his shoulders to understand, but in fact, he didn't believe a word of it. Just kidding, after being the boss for so many years, you are actually willing to go back and be the younger brother.
Fuck, if that's the case, White Films or Legends is up to you. It is the CEO, there will be no constraints.
Jobs thanked William White for his kind invitation. The two guys came and went to each other for a long time, basically explaining their needs clearly.
Jobs needed William White to support him on the board, and he would reciprocate with handsome performance.
Old Joe walked away very proudly, like a proud rooster. The two performed back and forth for more than an hour, and finally tested each other's bottom line.
To be honest, William White hates this kind of smart young man the most. After more than an hour, he obviously felt a little strenuous. What surprised him was when Jobs learned this trick. It seems that Gil Amelio is going to be unlucky.
In terms of reputation, you are not as good as Jobs. In terms of personal connections, Jobs is one of the founders of the company. In terms of wealth, you are just a senior wage earner.
Ahem, you are at a disadvantage in all directions, who gave you the confidence.
To control God Joe?
William White would rather accept Larry Ellison, the madman, and he would never include Jobs. Tsk tsk, there is a good show to watch, I don't know if it will be a year or half a year, Old Qiao is definitely the only one.
It is obviously inappropriate to judge Jobs with good guys and bad guys. This is a self-centered paranoid at all. In his eyes, there are two kinds of people, one is a genius and the other is a waste.
Even though everyone knew that Jobs would never have succeeded without the $3 billion left by Gil Amelio. However, as long as someone mentions the unlucky former Apple CEO, the label of loser, he can't take it off no matter what.
The melting pot of Silicon Valley is simply a playground for paranoia. If you don't treat yourself a little harder, it's actually normal to rush to the street.
"Filson, stop, they know, it's a little inappropriate to enter the market at this time, and there are suspicions of insider trading."
"Okay, boss, so soon? Did they talk about it?"
"No, I think, the dispute now is just the price. Jobs' return to Apple is a certainty."
"Boss, what about Pixar? It won't affect the next plan, right?"
"No, Felson, Lucas did a bad business, he sold the whole team.
I am very greedy for the two guys from Pixar. If I can go to Disney's animation department, I will definitely make a good profit. "
"Boss, then..."
"Look at it again. People who worked with Jobs are somewhat neurotic. It's nothing to stay in Pixar. If we buy it, there will be nothing left of this company."
Of course, William White is greedy for Pixar. Needless to say, a Toy Story plus Finding Nemo is worth at least five billion.
