Chapter 2408 Madam Route
Feng Yiping was not surprised by Laurene's call, but a little surprised.
When two families that were originally on good terms have conflicts because of the two male owners, the female owner will often play a role at this time, come forward to persuade and ease the situation.
This is also a kind of so-called wife route.
So Feng Yiping was not surprised to receive Laurene's call.
What surprised him was that he received Laurene's call so soon.
Jobs called yesterday, and she called today, looking much more anxious than herself.
Laurene was indeed anxious.
Although the conflict between Feng Yiping and Jobs was caused by a conflict at work, and people like Laurene generally do not interfere with their husbands' work, but that is only in general circumstances.
She may not care about general work, but she will definitely care about those work decisions that will directly affect their common property.
Especially for wealthy couples like her and Jobs, who need asset management companies to manage their wealth, in many cases, some decisions originally require the consent of both of them.
It is difficult to estimate the adverse impact that Android may have on Apple, and the resulting reduction in Jobs' related income at Apple.
Frankly speaking, even Laurene understands one thing: even without Android, there will be other similar products that will have an impact on the iPhone. In this world, a unique business like Microsoft is always a rare opportunity.
Moreover, from all aspects, Apple can only be regarded as a newcomer in the field of mobile phones. Those well-known mobile phone companies in the market still have advantages that cannot be ignored. Apple's seemingly incomparable advantages will sooner or later be caught up.
On the other hand, the fund that Feng Yiping has established is about to enter the harvest season, and the result of the harvest, she has heard Jobs talk about, will be a heavy fruit worth billions of dollars.
Although from Feng Yiping's personality, he should not do anything in the middle, but if Apple's actions against him are too harsh, who can say for sure?
In the field of investment, the situation was originally very good, but before reaching the end, the situation suddenly changed, and the situation that was originally a sure win became a total loss. Such a thing is not impossible to happen.
As for the other two shareholders, the two from Google, she believed that Feng Yiping would definitely find a way to ensure the safety of their funds.
Therefore, angering Feng Yiping may not only reduce their income, but also endanger their billion US dollars of capital.
Originally, the billion US dollars of investment was a very good opportunity, but now think about it, the billion US dollars seems to be a bit like "hostages".
This is what Laurenna thought before calling Feng Yiping, which also made her feel that the kind young man was not simple, and even felt that Feng Yiping's move must have some calculations.
She understood that Jobs must have thought of these, so he was a little annoyed, but for her, when she thought about the 1 billion or tens of billions of dollars in returns that might be brought if things went well, she felt that such calculations were not unacceptable.
In other words, it is not impossible to come a few more times.
Being calculated once can get at least $1 billion in return, why not?
So, she was not annoyed by Feng Yiping and his humility and his shrewdness that did not match his age. Instead, she felt that this was normal.
It would be abnormal if someone like Feng Yiping, who had achieved such success, could be seen through at a glance.
So, she was very anxious now, anxious that the billions of dollars that were about to be in her hands would fly away like a cooked duck.
Frankly speaking, Feng Yiping did not expect that Laurene would be so active in this matter for the fund he founded.
But Laurene's call today undoubtedly made him happy and optimistic, that is, at least Jobs' attitude was not firm now.
He also did not receive a call from the United States saying that his Facebook and other products were removed from the iPhone, or that Apple had cancelled his Facebook account.
"Is it good news?" Marika asked tentatively when she saw his expression.
"It's also expected good news," Feng Yiping tossed his phone.
Sure enough, the more preparations you make, the safer it is.
But he had just sat down and taken a sip of wine when his phone rang again. He looked at it and pointed to the side. Marika smiled slightly, "It's okay, I'll wait for you,"
He was not surprised to receive this call, but it seemed that Laurena was really anxious.
"Jingping, have you had breakfast? Where's Amanda?" he asked first.
"Amanda, Dad is calling you," Huang Jingping called, and soon Amanda's voice came over, "Dad, where are you, when will you come home? I miss you so much!"
"Oh, Mom misses you too,"
"And, Brother Vincent misses you too,"
"And, Aunt Ma Ling misses you too,"
Feng Yiping was stunned for a while before saying, "Dad misses you too, I'll be back in two days,"
On the other side, Huang Jingping had already answered the phone, "Okay, go and have a good meal," Feng Yiping believed that her face would be very exciting at this moment.
Huang Jingping's expression was really interesting at this moment. She was speechless, "Look, how could I have given birth to such a daughter?"
It would be enough to add an explanation of her own mother, but she also brought her brother along, and even forgot to bring her brother's mother along. What a careless person.
"Our daughter is generous," Feng Yiping said with a smile.
"Oh, I see, it means that I am not generous enough," Huang Jingping said immediately.
Feng Yiping just wanted to say at this moment, how come you women are so slow at some times, but at other times, your reaction is ten times sharper than Sherlock Holmes?
"I haven't finished my words yet. In this regard, Amanda has perfectly inherited her mother's advantages," Feng Yiping said with a smile.
In fact, at such a moment, men's minds are also turning very quickly.
Yes, as stupid as me. Huang Jingping looked at her daughter who seemed particularly happy because she had a call with her father. "Are you still in Mumbai?"
"I'm not in Mumbai. I'm in a scenic spot not far from Mumbai. It's quite beautiful here, and there are many beauties."
"There's one next to me now, having a candlelight dinner with me," Feng Yiping smiled and waved to Marika.
"Yes, who are you? The richest man in Asia, the youngest super-rich man in the world, where wouldn't you be popular?" Huang Jingping said.
"This is not as good as you say," Feng Yiping breathed a sigh of relief.
Sometimes it's like this, you tell the truth, but others really don't believe it.
"If there's nothing particularly important in India, can you go back to Silicon Valley as soon as possible?" Huang Jingping asked.
Amanda ran to her again with a spoon, "When will Dad come back? Today? Tomorrow?"
Huang Jingping pointed at Zhuo, and the little guy pouted and sat back obediently, "Don't you know that your daughter, your son, and your son's mother all miss you very much?"
So, women are generous?
Feng Yiping didn't respond to this, but just asked, "Did Laurena call you too?"
"No, but last night, she came to the restaurant to find me," Huang Jingping said.
"It sounds like the Android system will have a big impact on Apple's smartphone business. Apple reacted strongly to the news, and Jobs was also very annoyed."
"Well," Feng Yiping nodded, looking at the magnificent city palace on the other side of the lake, which was a little unclear because of the bright lights. "Although we don't mean to target Apple, Apple will indeed suffer a big impact from this,"
"So, you should come back as soon as possible, okay? Over the years, you and Jobs have always had a good relationship, and they have also given us a lot of help. In any case, their family is also our rare friends,"
"Think about it, when I was pregnant, Laurene took a lot of care, and on the night Amanda was born, the two of them were waiting in the hospital," Huang Jingping mentioned the incident again.
Yeah, this is a person who values feelings more than herself.
"I also believe that no matter what the problem is, as long as you two can sit down and talk it out, you will definitely find a proper solution,"
"I also remember what you often said, more friends are always better than more opponents,"
"Laurena also said that when Jobs called you, his attitude was not good. She repeatedly asked me to convey my apologies. So, no matter what, you come back first and you two sit down and talk, okay?"
"If the talk doesn't work out, then I will definitely stand on your side, but the premise is that we try our best, okay?"
"Okay," Feng Yiping glanced at Marika, "I'll be back as soon as possible,"
