Legend of Xiangjiang Tycoon

Chapter 76: $100 million

   After coming out of Microsoft, Curatos Blank hurriedly apologized to Li Zhiwen and said, "Excuse me, boss, I'm bothering you."

   "Nothing, isn't this a small thing? We Mars Capital do the biggest thing with the least money." Li Zhiwen said.

   "Yes, boss, you are right." Curatos Blank said.

   "Kuratos, what do you think of Microsoft?" Li Zhiwen asked.

   "To be honest, boss, I am not optimistic about Microsoft. There are too many companies like this in Seattle, and there is no need for investment at all," Li Zhiwen said.

"Of course, I have the same opinion as you. The interpreter market is too small. Even if it becomes the leader of the market, it will have much profit. However, just like the two founders and I said, I treat them both Very optimistic."

   "You have to know that IBM is currently preparing to enter the microcomputer market, but the operating system is completely absent. Before you come to Microsoft, you should have investigated the identities of the two founders." Li Zhiwen said.

   "Yes, I investigated that Bill Gates' mother Mary Maxwell Gates is a director of IBM." Curatos Blank said.

   "Look, don't the differences show up? Bill has different advantages from competitors of the same kind in the market, and coupled with their two technologies, won't it succeed faster than others?" Li Zhiwen said.

   "Boss, I understand what you mean." Curatos Blank said.

   "It's good if you understand, Curatos, I am very fond of Microsoft, so you have to do your best to help them." Li Zhiwen said.

   "Okay, I will always pay attention to them." Curatos Blank said.

"In addition, if any of them wants to sell shares and acquire them at all costs, in addition, the directors assigned to Microsoft Corporation must obey Bill Geez’s requirements in the general direction, but it involves our company’s own interests. We must resolutely safeguard our interests, and at the same time try our best to provoke the relationship between Paul Allen and Bill Gezi." Li Zhiwen warned uneasy.

   "Why?" Curatos Blank asked.

   "Kuratos, if they wear a pair of pants, will they sell the stock to us in the future?" Li Zhiwen asked.

   "Boss, what you said is so right, I will tell my staff." Curatos Blank said.

   Li Zhiwen and his group walked and stopped, and suddenly a shop attracted his attention.

   This is a coffee shop, its logo is coffee brown, and the logo is a bit pornographic.

   This is a wood carving pattern of a two-tailed mermaid. There is no shell on the mermaid's chest, and the mermaid's chest and belly button can be clearly seen, and the outer ring is surrounded by a circle in English-Starbuckscoffeeteasplces.

   Chinese translation is Starbucks coffee, tea and spices.

   Although this trademark is somewhat different from the Starbucks green trademark of the Fortune 500 in the future, it is basically the same.

   Li Zhiwen was a little excited and found the treasure, so he said to everyone: "Let's go, I invite you to have coffee." Then he walked towards Starbucks.

   "Welcome, what kind of coffee do you need?" The middle-aged aunt in her 40s wearing a plaid apron asked kindly.

   "A cup of cappuccino, what do you want to drink, order yourself." Li Zhiwen said to everyone.

   Everyone started to light up. After Li Zhiwen and others paid the money, they found a secluded corner and sat down. Zhong Chuhong and Kuratos Blank also sat down.

There are not too many people in the store. Excluding Li Zhiwen, there are only five people. It may be due to work reasons. In addition, the layout of this Starbucks is not very good. It is located in the corner of the street. If it were not for Li Zhiwen’s sharp eyes, it would be difficult to see. arrive.

   "Gentlemen and madam, your coffee is ready, please use it slowly." The middle-aged aunt brought the dinner plate and delivered it.

   "Thank you." Li Zhiwen said, then took a sip, and said to both Zhong Chuhong and Zhong Chuhong: "The taste is not bad, it is very fragrant, try it."

   "Really? Then I have to try it." Zhong Chuhong said eagerly.

   "It's really good, the craftsmanship of this shop is very good, and the coffee beans are also well selected." Zhong Chuhong said.

   "Kuratos, what do you think?" Li Zhiwen asked.

   "It's really good, more authentic than most of the coffee I drink in New York." Curatos Blank said.

   "Kuratos, how about we buy a coffee chain?" Li Zhiwen asked with a smile.

  Kuratos Blank was a little surprised. He didn't expect Li Zhiwen's thinking to jump so fast, from drinking coffee to buying coffee chains.

But he did not refute, saying: "Boss, I think this idea is very good. Many white-collar workers need a cup of coffee to refresh themselves when they are tired. Talent in the field."

   Li Zhiwen said with a smile: "You don't need to make a plan. In such a small case, you don't need to go out. Isn't there a family in front of you? Just let the people under you talk about it."

   "Boss, do you mean this one?" Kuratos said.

   "Of course, is there anything better than this one? Besides, do we need better ones? This is just a small idea of ​​mine." Li Zhiwen said.

   "Indeed, boss, I'll let my subordinates negotiate when I go back," Kuratos said.

   "Very well, as for the president of the coffee chain, I have a personal choice. He should now be the vice president of the American branch of a Swedish kitchenware company called Howard Schultz. You ask the headhunting company to hire him." Li Zhiwen said.

It can be said that the reason why Starbucks can become a multinational company can be said that Howard Schultz has 80% of the credit. In this world, Li Zhiwen has a lot of money that is useless, and he just invests in Starbucks to help it grow quickly.

And Li Zhiwen knows Howard Schultz is not because of Starbucks, but because of the NBA. He is the owner of the Sonics, and it can be said that he is the most stingy boss in the NBA. Although Li Zhiwen is not a fan of the Sonics in his previous life, he is very important to everyone in the NBA. The boss is as precious as every family.

   Thinking of the NBA, Li Zhiwen suddenly thought why he didn't buy an NBA team, plus sporting goods, a proper sportsman.

   So Li Zhiwen said to Kuratos Blank: "Kuratos, I have something to trouble you. You bought the Lakers for me, and you can buy it from a shoe factory called Nike."

   Li Zhiwen was a Lakers fan in his previous life. If he has money in this life, he naturally wants to buy the Lakers.

Curatos Blank is immune to Li Zhiwen’s leap thinking, and he is a little embarrassed: "Boss, last year Jerry Buss spent $67.5 million to buy the Lakers, the Los Angeles Kings (hockey team) and the Los Angeles Forum Ball. Museum, it’s too difficult to sell him again this year."

   Li Zhiwen said arrogantly: "I can accept 100 million dollars with the money. I only need the arena and the Lakers."

   Zhong Chuhong looked at Li Zhiwen's audacious look, with little stars shining in his eyes.

   And when Curatos Blank heard Li Zhiwen's money guarantee, he was very proud and said: "Boss, I know, I will bring the Lakers back for you."

   The people at Starbucks did not show any disdainful smiles when they listened to the conversation between the two. After all, their strength is there, and you can tell by looking at the top five bodyguards. No way, the United States is a society of the rich.
