Wall Street Legend

   Chapter 251 Miscellaneous (44)

  After all, she is still a young girl who has just entered the society. Otherwise, Laura’s sense of guilt might not be so deep. She really wants to pretend that nothing happened, but the memory always reminds her all the time.

  The matter is not over yet, but the follow-up is already a few months later, so let's not talk about it for now.

The decoration company called Ye Dongqing and told him that the island in Long Island had already entered the finishing work, and it was expected to be completed in another month, and the renovation and maintenance of the main building had all been completed. After moving in, the various materials used for decoration are more environmentally friendly. You don't need to worry too much about formaldehyde and other issues. It takes a few days to ventilate. The housekeeper and servants are trying to complete the cleaning work.

   A total of more than 40 million US dollars was invested in the renovation. The entire island must have spent a lot of money and manpower. In order to give herself a sense of surprise, Ye Dongqing didn't go to see it recently.

In the past few days, I have been trapped by the things in Silicon Valley, and I have no time to go back and look at them. Some uncertainties can only be communicated by phone and email, such as the purchase of sculptures, etc., all from a young scientist in New York. The hand of a famous sculptor is made of natural stone, so you don't have to worry about natural damage after hundreds of years.

This phone call reminded Ye Dongqing that he was so busy that he forgot to tell Cobra Building that he should ask an architectural design firm to help with planning in the near future, and the purchase of land must also be put on the agenda. Considering the sufficient capital flow of Danshui Investment Group Under the circumstances, it is not a problem to spend hundreds of millions of dollars to build a skyscraper, not to mention that the money for building a building is not a one-time payment, and the construction period may be as long as four or five years. It is very possible to become richer and become the richest man in the world.

In addition, Ye Dongqing also felt that it was time to purchase a helicopter. She lay in the hotel room and thought about it for a few seconds. She felt that one might not be enough, so she called Assistant William to help investigate the market conditions of various helicopters. The best is the one that is very comfortable, has very little noise, and is extremely safe.

You can take a boat from that island to Manhattan, and you can actually buy a big yacht, but he thinks it may be useless for the time being, and the money is not too much to spend. The debt problem of Danshui Investment Group still exists. It is better to pay back to investors first, so as not to have to pay them additional interest.

Looking at it from another angle, it is also beneficial to pay interest to these people. It can be regarded as spending money to tie them into a carriage. Take Mr. Bernard Madoff as an example. He will do his best to help, and his wealth and life are all placed on the Danshui Investment Group.

The "small goal" of 20 billion US dollars will be reached soon. Even the Manhattan City Bank has approached Mr. McCord recently, trying to invest the entire 2 billion US dollars in the Freshwater Fund. Recently, the amount of money available for investment is increasing. increase, how to spend them has become a more difficult problem, and they cannot all be invested in the crude oil futures market. Ye Dongqing is not as courageous as that. The best investment target is still the IT industry, mainly concentrated in the upstream of R&D and manufacturing. At the stage, there are a wide range of investment targets, but whether other shareholders are willing to sell is another matter.

In the past few days, he sent someone to contact Sun Zhengyi of Softbank and raised the price to 110 million U.S. dollars. The other party was still unwilling to resell Alibaba shares to him, so he could only pin his hopes on the next round of financing. , I have no intention of giving up yet, but judging from the news Ye Dongqing received, it is estimated that the possibility of success is not high. Sun Zhengyi has already seen the development potential of Alibaba through Taobao. , maybe there is still some hope. After finally investing in a relatively good company, no angel investor is willing to pick the fruits before they are ripe.

It is impossible for Ye Dongqing to complete all the business. Although it is a pity, there is no way to change anything. Jack Ma also does not plan to sell shares. The reason is that after the financing is diluted, he hopes to pass the next round of financing. According to Jack Ma, there is no plan to sell shares until Alibaba goes public. Fortunately, Ye Dongqing can still invest in other places, such as the Android operating system that is likely to appear this year. If it does not appear, he can find someone to develop an operating system similar to Android. Anyway, there will be no shortage of opportunities to make money.

Exhausted by all kinds of miscellaneous things, FB does not let Ye Dongqing worry about it. With the expansion of the market, this program has come under official censorship in many countries. Don't worry, how to successfully enter other countries has become a problem that has to be solved. Not only do you need to solve the troubles from the official, but you also have to make minor changes to the program according to the usage habits of different regions.

He also needs to worry about security supervision, internal review and other links. He paid more attention to this before, but Ye Dongqing always felt that it was still not enough. Last night, the program was attacked by hackers, and a loophole was exploited, which directly caused the server to almost paralyze. The person in charge worked all night to solve the problem. Calling the data from the backup server was not a big problem, but he found it very annoying.

Isn't that the way to start a company? How can there be such good money? Apple also doesn't let Ye Dongqing worry. In the new round of voting, the supporters and opponents even drew a tie. Tim Cook served as the interim CEO, and Bill Campbell Sr. played a big role in it. He finally decided to fight Ye Dongqing, and he didn't want to be so easily subdued.

There are many companies and many things. Ye Dongqing didn't have much patience when dealing with this trouble. At this time, his tone was a little irritable: "Mr. Jobs, you have seen it yourself. This is their declaration of war against me and you. I I don't think it will help the company's development if it continues like this in the future.

I have already contacted the lobbying firm on K Street, they will help to contact other shareholders, shareholders who feel that the company has problems like me, maybe I will accept an interview, and I am finalizing the meeting time with Bloomberg News, other shareholders I will realize that the current system of the board of directors is an obstacle that causes the company to lag behind in decision-making. I will request that the entire board of directors be re-elected, and the next term of directors will be re-elected according to the wishes of the shareholders. "

This is what Jobs is most worried about, and he doesn't want to make trouble at this point. However, the old Mr. Campbell is indeed a bit aggressive. Even if he wants to break his head, he can't understand why this independent director insists on talking to Ye Dongqing. The major shareholders are against each other.

Everything that should be said has been said, and it is useless to say it. Jobs threw out a compromise solution, still wanting to make the big problem smaller, and told by phone: "I have consulted the doctor, and I will take a conservative approach next." treatment, so maybe we don't have to argue about the interim CEO anymore..."
