Rebirth in 1998 starts with the stock god

After everyone was seated, Johnson immediately said: "Every director must already know the purpose of today's meeting. Let's be simple and clear and get to the point!"

"Jusoft is preparing to acquire Pingguo Company at a premium of up to 50%. After the acquisition, GiantSoft is willing to retain the positions of all Pingguo employees. Even if there are layoffs, it will give a large amount of compensation. Personally, I think the conditions It’s very superior, and I don’t need to say more about Jusoft’s status in the IT industry, right?”

"Okay, without further ado, let's vote on whether we agree to this acquisition!"

After speaking, Johnson was the first to choose to raise his hand.

Some directors who were persuaded by him also raised their hands one after another.

At this time, Markkula also raised his hand.

Jabs couldn't hold back his emotions for a moment, and immediately said angrily: "Makula!!! Why are you doing this? Pinguo is our hard work. Have you forgotten that we vowed to make Pinguo the best in the world?" The oath of a big company?”

Markkula pursed his lips and said in a deep voice: "Jabs, I'm here, I can't stand the trouble anymore."

"We were very high-spirited and passionate back then, but I think the company has been very successful if it can enter the Fortune Global [-] and develop to a scale of hundreds of billions now!"

"Now that Jusoft has acquired Pingguo, we can all get a very generous remuneration, and at the same time, Pingguo has become part of the world's largest company."

"The employees' jobs can also be saved, and we can also have an explanation for Woz. Isn't this a perfect thing?"

Markula said earnestly: "My old man, you are not young anymore, you also have a family, you also have children, it is definitely time for me to let go.

Now, it is the era of young people, and we have fallen behind. "

"You fart!" Jabs roared: "Only the weak will admit that they have been eliminated by the times! I will never allow my life's hard work to be taken away by others!!!"

Markkula sighed, shook his head, and said no more.

Johnson shrugged and joked: "Okay, I can unilaterally announce that this acquisition has been approved! The meeting can be dismissed!"

Chen Mo said in a deep voice: "Johnson, the voting is not over yet, why do we have to adjourn the meeting?"

Johnson sneered: "It's a very simple math problem! Me, Mr. Markkula, and several directors on the scene, the total shares in our hands alone exceed 42%!"

Not to mention Mr. Watts, who holds 25% of the shares! "

"And what about you? You, Chen Mo, have 10% of the shares, Jabs has 15% of the shares, and Ku Ke has 3% of the shares.

How much does it add up to? "

"This is a math problem that elementary school students can calculate. You can't figure it out, right?"

Louis also stood up proudly at this time and said: "Mr. Chen, you succeeded in acquiring facecook.

It seems that I won the acquisition of Pingguo, right?

Of course, you don’t have to be depressed. When the meeting is over, I will treat you to a big party. You and your friends can come and eat, drink and have fun with us! "

As Lewis's voice fell, several directors on Johnson's side also spoke:

"President Jobs, we understand your feelings, but being acquired by Jusoft is the best outcome for Pingguo."

"Whether you agree with it or not, a majority of the board has approved the acquisition."

"You can choose to receive a large amount of compensation, plus the money from your own shares, and you can start a business again!"

"..."

Johnson cleared his throat and said loudly:

"Okay, I announce that Jusoft's acquisition will be..."

"Wait a moment!"

At the critical moment, Chen Mo stood up again and stopped Johnson.

"Mr. Watts hasn't arrived yet, and this vote isn't over yet!"

Johnson looked impatient and said: "Chen Mo, you have also been to Woz's house. Didn't Woz tell you that he has agreed to the acquisition? Why continue to bother?"

"Everyone is a respectable person, and time is precious!"

Chen Mo said calmly: "Since you are so confident, why don't we have a bet?"

"What's the bet on?" Johnson asked.

Chen Mo smiled and said: "Let's bet on whether this acquisition can pass! If it can, I will sell you 10% of the equity at a 5% discount on the market price."

"If not, then the shares in your hand will be sold to me at a 5% discount."

Chen Mo spoke calmly, but everyone present was shocked.

Although Pingguo today does not have a market value of nearly 20 trillion in later generations, it is still a Fortune 1000 company with a market value of more than 500 billion!

10% of the shares would cost more than 100 billion, and a 5% discount would be more than 50 billion.

In a word, it costs more than 50 billion!

This bet is a bit too exaggerated!

"How about it, since you are so confident, just bet with me!" Chen Mo said in anger.

"I..." Johnson hesitated.

It wasn't because of the gambling issue, but because he had a vague feeling that something was not right.

"Mr. Johnson, bet with him!" Louis snorted from the side: "It's free money, why don't you want it? Don't worry, if you lose, I will help you pay for it!"

Johnson gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "Okay! Let's bet! But it's empty talk, we must sign a betting agreement!"

"No problem! Wife, help me prepare a gambling agreement! Just in time, we can take advantage of this time and wait for Mr. Watts to come." Chen Mo said with a smile.

Soon, Gong Ziyuan skillfully concluded the gambling agreement.

Both parties signed and pledged!

It was at this time that the door to the conference room was pushed open.

The big fat Woz walked in with a document.

"Makula, my old friend, long time no see."

"Everyone, how are you?"

Woz warmly hugged many colleagues present.

This good old man is still very popular, and everyone greets him very warmly.

Johnson immediately said: "Mr. Watts, all that's left now is your vote."

"I, Markkula, and several directors voted in favor, with about 42% of the shares."

"Chen Mo, Steve Jobs, and Ku Ke voted against it, and their combined shares total about 30%."

"You own 25% of the shares, which means that the final result of this acquisition is in your hands!"

Lewis said to Woz with a smile at this time: "Mr. Woz, don't worry, we have written all the placement conditions for Pingguo employees after the acquisition into the contract, and we will never go back on it!"

Woz nodded: "Yes, I understand."

"Then, Mr. Watts, please express your position now."

Johnson said loudly.

After the words fell, everyone's eyes focused on Woz.

The atmosphere became extremely tense.

Both Chen Mo and Lewis were actually quite afraid that Woz would change his mind.

At this time, Woz took a deep breath, and then said: "I choose... to abstain!"

Chen Mo and Jabs were shocked at the same time!

He looked at Woz in disbelief!

Although Lewis and Johnson were slightly surprised and did not expect that Woz would choose to abstain rather than vote in favor, the final result still made them relieved.

"Okay, the results are out!"

“The percentage of equity that voted yes was higher than the vote against!”

"I declare that the acquisition is approved!"

"At the same time, I won the gambling agreement, and 10% of Mr. Chen's shares will be sold to me at a 5% discount!"

"Hey, Mr. Chen, I'm sorry!"
