Chapter 2475 This Is Not the Desired Result
At this moment, the two people, who had their own plans, finally came to a rare agreement and shared the same hatred.
Especially Abigail, who was truly born with a golden key in her mouth and now has the merits and abilities to be the successor of Fidelity. She has never been so angry as long as she can remember.
She also sees Bill Gates, the richest man in the world, and even him, when has he not been pleasant to her when she saw him?
Unexpectedly, when Baba rushed to Silicon Valley, he was ignored by Feng Yiping.
In terms of financial resources and influence, are you now better than Bill Gates? ——This is the main reason why Feng Yiping doesn’t like this second generation. Some of them are indeed capable and work hard, but they just tend to regard all the treatment they have enjoyed since childhood because of their family as their own. Of course.
An outstanding person like Abigail would never think at this time that the reason why Bill Gates was so polite to her was just because Fidelity was the major shareholder of Microsoft.
At this time, she would not even think about why Feng Yiping treated them like this?
As long as she thinks about why she is here now, she will easily get the answer to this question.
But she obviously won't think about the cause of the matter. She just wants to get the humiliation she is currently suffering.
But even she does not have the final say in this matter. After all, she is not the helmsman of Fidelity, her father is.
This is especially true for Robert. Abigail has a high chance of taking over Fidelity in the future, and Robert will even retire earlier than Lawrence Fink. Therefore, Edward Johnson and Fink, who have been paying attention to the situation here, will soon Know this situation.
Johnson looked at the dinner that had just been served, and for the first time he hated the time difference between the east and west coasts.
Look, not long after they started work over there in the morning, it was lunch time for them, and it was almost the same in the afternoon. If something happened to them over there, it would be dinner time here.
For an older person like him, the most important factor in eating is, of course, whether he is in a happy mood.
And ever since he met Steve Jobs, it was hard for him to feel happy.
Damn jet lag!
But he still forced himself to calm down and tried to communicate with Lawrence Fink as calmly as possible, "I think the most important thing now is to figure out the attitude over there. Is he doing this because he completely doesn't want to reconcile with us, or is he? Just want to make things difficult for us? "
"If it's the latter, we can live with it,"
The two of them did not mention at all that they sent people to Silicon Valley to find Feng Yiping. Abigail and Robert felt that the somewhat embarrassing situation was not worth mentioning at all to them.
Lawrence added, "If he is so naive, this is actually good news for us,"
Unlike the period in the middle, when he was often irritable, Fink sounds calm now.
Because at this time, Feng Yiping can be willful, but they cannot be willful.
"Then if it's the former situation," Edward Johnson said quietly, "then we may have to prepare for the worst."
As the helmsman of an established company, it is naturally impossible for them to have no backup plan for such a major event.
Of course there is, and there is more than one, ready to be activated depending on the different developments of the situation.
The current situation they are facing reminds them of the worst-case scenario that they are still reluctant to face.
In the United States, Feng Yiping's overall strength is not much weaker than theirs, but in China, their overall strength is not at the same level as Feng Yiping's. This is their biggest disadvantage.
The potential of the Chinese market makes them quite reluctant to face the worst situation.
Lawrence Fink was quiet for a while. As tough as he was, he didn't want that to happen. "I'll ask the people over there to ask,"
Edward Johnson was still a little proud when he hung up the phone.
Sure enough, sometimes, being able to stay calm is a good thing.
At this time, I asked someone to ask Feng Yiping. Naturally, I owed someone a favor, and it was a big favor. As expected, Fink rushed to do it.
…………
Different from the last request, it was Robert who was looking for someone under the banner of Black Rock. This time, it was Lawrence Fink who called directly to find someone. Therefore, before Abigail's anger had subsided, they saw someone. After handing Feng Yiping a phone number, Feng Yiping stood up and waved goodbye to the surrounding employees. He answered the phone and entered the small building.
But still didn't look at Abigail and Robert.
But Abigail and Robert were both looking forward to it at this time, because they both knew who made that call, so maybe they could be invited in soon?
At this time, Feng Yiping once again received a call from HP CEO Mark Hurd, "Feng," this guy who was also going to attend the Android conference was a little helpless.
Who is he? Since he took office in March 2005, in just over two years, he has used outstanding results to win the trust of employees and investors, and also caused a headache for direct competitor Dell.
Why would a person like him get involved in the dispute between Wall Street and Feng Yiping?
But it was Lawrence Fink who called in person, and it was really hard for him to refuse.
Moreover, Fink made some promises to him.
Therefore, he had to call Feng Yiping again to inquire about the situation.
"The people they sent, I heard, were outside your office door and wanted to ask if you would finally have time to meet with them," Mark Hurd said.
He added, "This is what Laurence Fink of Black Rock asked me to ask,"
Fink's words were certainly not what he said, but his revised question was undoubtedly much more polite, and the effect was the same.
Everyone was a smart person, and he believed that it was impossible for Feng Yiping and the others not to know that those two people were stalking him outside his office.
Therefore, the attitude of this reminder is naturally much more tactful, but Feng Yiping's attitude can also be analyzed from his answer again.
If it's a meeting, then it's easy to talk about it.
If it's missing, or at least it needs to dry out, that's good news.
"Haha," Feng Yiping laughed, "I can't possibly meet these two,"
Mark Hurd was stunned for a moment, okay, this is the answer he least wanted to hear.
It was impossible to see the two of them, which showed that Feng Yiping had no intention of making peace with Fink and the others.
"Okay Feng, I understand, I will convey your opinions to them in full," Mark Hurd said.
He hesitated again, then persuaded, "Feng, although I don't know exactly what happened in the middle, I still believe that since you did this, you must have a reason for doing so,"
"It's just that, as a friend, I still want to advise you, if possible, don't get too stalemate with them. You know, Wall Street..."
"Thank you Mark, thank you for your advice," Mark Hurd is not bad at being able to persuade him like this at this time.
"In our country, there is such a situation," Feng Yiping said, "usually when a child makes a mistake, an adult will take him to apologize,"
Mark Hurd was a little confused for a moment. What does this mean?
"But there is never any intention of asking the younger one to step in when an adult makes a mistake,"
Taking into account the cultural differences between the two sides, he also explained, "You can understand this as guardians and minors,"
"Oh," Mark Hurd understood now, but why do I feel so happy?
Feng Yiping's obvious meaning is that since it was Lawrence Fink and others who made a mistake, they shouldn't expect the people below to take responsibility.
He didn't expect that Feng Yiping would be so willful sometimes.
However, with Feng Yiping's current strength, why can't he be willful?
"I understand, okay Feng, I will convey your opinions to them immediately, and," he paused, "I think I will definitely not make such a call again,"
No matter how big a promise Lawrence Fink made, he really would never make such a call again.
"Thank you Mark, look forward to seeing you at the launch,"
…………
"He...he is..." Edward Johnson didn't believe it when he received a call from Lawrence Fink.
"His attitude was very clear, either we come and apologize in person or... you know what," Lawrence Fink said.
How could he not be depressed? Normally, he wouldn't care about face, but given their status, who would feel better if they were forced to come to apologize in person?
"It's just Edward, that's always a good situation, isn't it?"
Edward Johnson sighed, at least, not the worst.
Abigail and the others soon received a call, "Go back? Just go back to the company like this? Go back to the hotel? Huh?... You will arrive tomorrow morning?"
Looking at the small building over there, they were both stunned.
