Chapter 2474 Mr. Feng Is Very Busy
Abigail and Robert also understood that asking Microsoft and HP to help pass the message was not the best choice. The best choice was Google and Apple.
Those two companies had a better relationship with Feng Yiping.
However, Abigail felt annoyed when she thought about Apple. Apple had been completely pushed to Feng Yiping's side by Black Rock's self-righteous Lawrence Fink.
As for Google, this was something Robert felt very unhappy about.
So far, they are not shareholders of Google. Among the four major asset management companies in the United States, only Pioneer is a shareholder of Google.
The main reason for this is Feng Yiping.
It is said that the two founders of Google have not sold their stocks much because of his influence, saying that the current stock price is too low.
But is Google's current stock price still low? It is now close to $800.
Because of this, they did not have the opportunity to invest in Google before Google went public, and they also did not have the opportunity to invest in Google after Google went public.
Think about the stock price of Google when it went public, which was less than $140.
It has only been more than three years since Google went public on August 19, 2004.
The four of them are institutional shareholders of most of the companies listed in Silicon Valley, and they are generally ranked in the top five. However, they failed to invest in the best performing company among the listed companies in Silicon Valley, except Pioneer. It is tearful to talk about this.
Moreover, this time, Google clearly stood on the side of Feng Yiping...
But looking at the list in their hands, there is really no candidate who can be more respectable than the two heads of Microsoft and HP.
Feng Yiping did not even give face to those two, so for a while, they were quite helpless.
Since Feng Yiping said that he was busy today, then tomorrow, the day before the Android conference, will naturally be busier, and the day after tomorrow, the day of the Android conference, will definitely be the busiest... That is to say, they may have to wait here doing nothing until the day after tomorrow before they can see Feng Yiping?
By that time, who knows what new problems will arise on the Chinese company side?
Besides, neither Abigail nor Robert had the time to wait for a meeting. There were many things to do.
Abigail once again used her unique advantage as a woman to continue to discuss with Feng Yiping's office, "So, can I go to the park tomorrow? Of course, I'll wait for Mr. Feng to see if he can spare even a minute or two."
She received a reply from the person in charge of Feng Yiping's office a while later, "We welcome everyone to visit our park, but I still have to tell you clearly that Mr. Feng has been unable to spare time recently."
"No problem, I will never disturb Mr. Feng if he doesn't have time," Abigail assured hurriedly.
As the successor of Fidelity, she naturally also worked in sales and experienced various rejections.
In any case, this statement from Feng Yiping's office was a bit more positive than before.
She also believed in her ability. As long as she arrived at the NEXTDOOR park and met Feng Yiping, she would definitely find a way to talk to him.
Abigail discussed strategies with her father on the phone for half a day, and read Feng Yiping's information until midnight. At ten o'clock the next morning, she dressed up carefully and appeared in NEXTDOOR, and found the small building where Feng Yiping worked.
She walked in with a smile, and was politely asked to leave, and she couldn't even enter the reception room.
She was not too depressed, so she sat down outside the coffee bar closest to the small building. She had no shortage of such experience of waiting for opportunities.
However, just after sitting down, she heard someone next to her say, "See you again, Miss Abigail."
She turned around and saw that somewhat annoying smiling face, "Hello Robert,"
Two people who had the same idea bumped into each other here again, and they couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
However, the reason for the embarrassment was different from yesterday.
"So you are here too," Abigail said with a smile, "I think this must be something that everyone can hardly imagine,"
This is the reason for their embarrassment.
Since when did the vice president of Black Rock and the future successor of Fidelity have to wait at someone else's door like this?
But it was different from yesterday's encounter. It seemed to be a good thing to have someone to accompany him in such an occasion today.
Robert sat down at Abigail's desk, "He should have arrived at the office before 7:30,"
"Did you see him?"
"I arrived at 7:30," Robert said.
He had planned to arrive before Feng Yiping arrived at the office and say a few words to him before he entered the office.
"He was already there by then. According to the analysis of the people who went in, this should be his third meeting of the day,"
Abigail said at this time, "Someone came out,"
Sure enough, someone came out of the small building one after another. The two of them opened their eyes wide and immediately said with joy, "He's here too!"
Feng Yiping did come out with everyone, and finally, he accompanied a middle-aged oriental man who looked unforgettable, walking beside the small building.
The two of them walked and talked, laughing constantly, and seemed to be in a very happy mood. Sometimes, they would chat with the employees passing by.
The two people who were waiting stood up almost at the same time, but before they could get close, a man in a suit appeared out of nowhere and stopped them with a serious face.
The two people who were stopped exchanged glances. Was he prepared? Did he know we were here?
However, until Feng Yiping entered the office again, he did not even look at them.
Not long after that, they saw Feng Yiping come out again. It should be an important customer, so he greeted him in front of the building.
Then soon, it was lunch time, and Feng Yiping did not come out. It seemed that he was eating in the office.
After two o'clock in the afternoon, he looked a little leisurely and met someone in front of the building again.
This time, the person he met should be his relatives. He accompanied the two old ladies who should be from China and walked around the entire park.
Abigail, who walked the whole way with them, analyzed that the one on his left should be his mother.
When the two of them were close, they could hear Feng Yiping and others talking in a language they could not understand, but it sounded like it was not Mandarin, but as before, Feng Yiping still did not even look in their direction.
At around 3 o'clock, after sending the two relatives to the car, Feng Yiping did not rush upstairs. He sat down on a bench by the lawn not far from the office, almost facing Abigail and the others.
Soon, a group of people surrounded him. They seemed to be ordinary employees. It was unknown what they were talking about, but they looked very happy.
Feng Yiping smiled and looked over at them several times. Abigail stood up and waved excitedly, but Feng Yiping seemed to have not seen them at all and quickly looked away as if nothing had happened.
Now, the two of them knew very clearly that they were being completely ignored.
But, is it really so childish?
Robert suddenly stood up, "I'll go over there,"
Abigail could see clearly that Robert's so-called "go over there" was just a long way around that area.
They knew very well that even though Feng Yiping was within reach, he said he would not see her, so they still would not have the opportunity to meet.
Not long after, Robert came back. Seeing his gloomy face, his temporary companion Abigail asked, "What's wrong?"
Robert drank the cold coffee on the table in one gulp, "Do you know what they are talking about?"
"Talking about what?"
"I just heard that Mr. Feng said, 'The priest, the pastor and the rabbi walked into a bar together...'" Robert said.
"What?" Abigail got angry after hearing this.
Priests, pastors and rabbis went into a bar together. This is a common joke in the United States. So, he has time to chat with a group of ordinary employees, but no time to see us?
Abigail called Feng Yiping's office again, "I'm Abigail from Fidelity, and Robert, the vice president of Black Rock, is with me. We are in the coffee bar next to your office building. Excuse me, Mr. Feng, can you spare a few minutes to see us now?"
The other side didn't care about the meaning of her words at all, and immediately said, "I'm sorry, we have said that Mr. Feng is very busy now."
Busy?
Abigail listened to the beeping sound in the microphone and looked at Feng Yiping, who was sitting relaxed and smiling on the bench over there. Her teeth were about to break. What the hell was he busy with right now?
