Chapter 2000 Frustrated person

Gang Qiao has been very depressed recently.

As early as April, he was removed from his position as CEO and retained only the identity of chairman of the board.

But in Europe and the United States, the most important thing for a company is the CEO, commonly known as CEO, the chairman of the board of directors rarely comes in handy.

This is not like our mainland China, Xiangjiang, Baodao, the CEO is the general manager, who is only responsible for specific things, and the person who really controls the overall situation is the chairman of the board, or simply the chairman.

Without real power at Apple, then seeing all the projects he was responsible for were cut off, the heartache of Gang Qiao was really unresolved by outsiders.

He has been working hard to communicate with various directors and shareholders, hoping that they will believe in themselves again and help themselves again, so that they can have a chance to prove themselves again.

Unfortunately, at Apple, few people are willing to believe it - this still includes the number of R&D personnel and employees.

It is the end of July and the leader of the Qiao Gang, who has been working hard for three months but still has nothing to gain, is already very discouraged.

So after finding out that Yin Jun is still in the United States, he specially called Yin Jun through a friend and wanted to talk to him.

Of course, Yin Jun readily allowed this genius to warmly receive the genius in Lin Qingxia's manor.

Compared to three months ago, Gang Qiao obviously looked much more haggard.

In fact, he is only 30 years old now, and he is in a very young stage, but this rebellious young man has suffered some setbacks in fighting spirit and is not very energetic.

"Stephen, don't take it to heart. You are not the first person to be kicked out of the company you founded, nor will you be the last one." Yin Jun said, "This is the law of the capital market, and there is nothing strange at all."

Gangmaster Qiao looked at Yin Jun with a look of surprise, "Are you comforting me or spreading salt on my wound? I haven't left Apple yet!"

Yin Jun's old face turned red.

He was filming for a while and didn't know so clearly. When he saw the leader of the gang, he thought he was kicked out, but he ended up making a mistake.

He coughed lightly, and the boy said, "Is it unclear? What's the point of staying in the apple now? Do you just let them humiliate you? You are not such a person, right?"

This sentence goes to the heart of Gang Qiao.

He was the most stubborn person in his life and didn't know what compromise was, at least now.

Seeing his company messed up by the Wall Street funds, he felt so uncomfortable. He really wanted to leave the company immediately, without seeing it.

"I'm leaving." Gangmaster Qiao spoke very straightforwardly. Since he came to Yin Jun, he didn't hide it. "I don't want to have any relationship with this company anymore, but I don't want to sell my own shares to other people. Mr. Yin, are you interested in buying the Apple stocks in my hands? Although it is not worth a lot now, I believe it will still get better."

"purchase!"

When Yin Jun heard this, he immediately made a decision, "Stephen, I will buy as much as you have, I won't bargain."

Gangmaster Qiao was immediately moved to the point of hearing this. This is his good friend!

This is the same genius as me!

Look at his demeanor, he is really different from those idiotic investors!

Of course, no matter what Yin Jun said, "Don't bargain", the leader of the Qiao Gang would not raise the price so directly, so he took the opportunity to sell a good price.

In fact, he had already thought about the price before he came.

Besides, he couldn't do such a temporary price increase at all, and Gang Qiao could not afford to lose this person.

Yin Jun was not surprised that Gangmao Qiao wanted to sell Apple's stock.

This is what he did in his previous life. The first thing he did after leaving Apple was to sell almost all the stocks in his hand, leaving only one share to collect Apple's annual report every year and see how Apple committed suicide.

In fact, it is the best time to buy Apple stocks now.

Today, Apple is not developing so large, so even if the computers are still selling well, their stock prices plummeted due to various mistakes. By April and May, the stock prices fell to the historical lowest price of US$1.98 per share.

In recent months, it has been hovering around 2 US dollars and has not had an upward trend.

However, these 2 US dollars are the lowest point for Apple.

The lowest Apple company was in 1996 in the 1990s, and it was around 6 US dollars.

After the Internet bubble burst in the 2000s, its stock price was US$7.

Then the leader of the gang returned, leading Apple to counterattack all the way, and the stock price soared to around $666.

So now that I have bought Apple's stocks and put them in for 30 years, it will naturally appreciate by three or four hundred times, and this business will definitely be worth it.

"I have 15% of Apple's stocks now. The market price is about 300 million US dollars." Gang Qiao said, "I want all the cash, can I do it?"

"Can."

Yin Jun said, "You can do whatever you want to trade."

"It's so refreshing!" Gangmaster Qiao laughed, "Oh, by the way, leave me a share so that I can receive the company's annual report every year."

"Hey, Stephen, you can't let it go?" Yin Jun said pretending, "I thought you would leave just as quickly as you go!"

"How is that possible?" Gangmaster Qiao shook his head repeatedly, "Apple is mine, I will definitely go back! I will definitely bring it to create glory again!!"

"Then why did you sell me the stocks you have?" Yin Jun asked.

"Is it important to have Apple's stocks in my hands?" asked Qiao Gangmao, "You see, I am still the largest private shareholder of Apple, but I have no way to do anything they want to drive me away! This is the consequence of my loss of people's hearts and failure to achieve results! It proves that the number of shares held is not important at all, unless I am like you, not allowing the company to go public, or directly holding more than 50%.

Now that Apple has been listed, we won’t talk about this possibility. What I’m thinking is, if I have the ability to lead Apple to make a comeback and become the largest and best company in the world, will they dare to drive me away? I’m afraid I’m asking me to stay? In this case, even if I don’t have Apple shares, what’s the difference?”

Yin Jun couldn't help but compare his thumbs up, "Stephen, this temporary setback really makes you mature!"

Gangmaster Qiao’s analysis was very correct and thorough.

Perhaps others can't see the benefits of the change in the mentality of Gangmaster Qiao, but Yin Jun knew that the development of later generations was as if Gangmaster Qiao had thought.

After he returned to Apple for the second time in 1996, he still had only one Apple stock.

The leader of the gang, Qiao, didn't even get the remuneration. His annual salary was $1, but he had an agreement with the board of directors that if he did a good job, there would be equity incentives.

The Qiao Gangmaster, who had no shares, has led Apple to move forward one after another. Starting from the ipod, Apple has been soaring all the way. From then on, even if the Qiao Gangmaster has no stocks in Apple, there are no investors or shareholders who dare to say anything to him.

They all regarded Master Qiao as a god, worshiped him, and followed his orders.

So, at that time, Gang Qiao, whether there are shares or not is not a problem at all.

Of course, before Gang Qiao went to heaven, he could still receive rewards of millions of Apple shares every year.

In the end, he became Apple's largest private shareholder, but this has nothing to do with his power.

"What's the use of being mature? These idiots will ruin my company! And I can only watch here now, there is no way. This is the most painful thing for me." Gangmaster Qiao sighed.

Yin Jun didn't speak anymore.

He would not tell Gangmao Qiao that at the current stage, the one who will soon destroy Apple is really not someone else, but Gangmao Qiao, you are yourself.

Because of his stubbornness, because he doesn't look at the market's recklessness, and because of his advanced consciousness, Apple has reached the point where it is almost over.

The shareholders had no choice but to avoid taking away the leader of the Qiao Gang, all their money would be wasted.

It was only after several years that the Qiao Gangmaster understood this truth after a long period of precipitation, continuous reflection and careful consideration.

But his second success, to be honest, was also completely lucky to seize the pulse of the times and then follow the trend.

How many people know that when he first started doing ipod, he just wanted to implant this music-playing software on other people's phones?

It was just that others didn't want to, so he could only make such a music player himself, and it immediately exploded and became the darling of the market.

Does anyone know that when the first generation of the iPhone, Qiao Gangmao, came out, it was just not popular, and it couldn't sell much. It was just because it relied on the contract machine model of major operators to sell it?

Even in the years when Gang Qiao returned to Apple, Apple has been unhappy.

Especially when the Internet bubble burst around 2000, Apple almost fell into a desperate situation.

He was forced to have no choice but to call his old enemy Bill Gates and said that we should not fight our patent lawsuit. Apple cannot fall down, so you pay the patent fee, buy some of our shares, and give us some help. Is it okay?

If it were the leader of Qiao ten years ago, he would rather announce that Apple would go bankrupt than make this call.

Although Bill Gates was not a good person in business, after consideration, he still agreed to the request of the leader Qiao Gang, immediately settled with Apple, and purchased shares of Apple, giving Apple support to overcome difficulties.

So you see, even a genius like Gangmaster Qiao can only succeed after going through all kinds of hardships.
