Chapter 1216: I'll take a cushion before I die
Pei Wencong arrived in Detroit only one day later than Jeff. There were more than twenty people accompanying his secretary, assistant, bodyguard and corporate mergers and acquisition personnel.
When Li Ye saw Pei Wencong, he couldn't help but smile and said, "I said Lao Pei, you are also a big boss now. Is such a small business worthy of your mobilization to come here in person?"
Pei Wencong also laughed.
[Big brother, who is the big boss? And the small business you mentioned is really a small business?]
Pei Wencong now doesn't believe what Li Ye said at all.
Four years ago, when Li Ye asked Pei Wencong to arrange for him to come to the lighthouse with Wenleyu, Pei Wencong thought that Li Ye was taking the girl out for a trip under the name of an internship.
Then Li Ye set up GF Investment Company "very casually" and invested in Cisco by "very coincidentally".
At that time, the poor Posacks and his wife owed credit cards, and the company registered their own living rooms. However, Li Ye was so proud that he threw out tens of millions of dollars.
Pei Wencong was not as rich as he is now, and he was still a little distressed when he wasted tens of millions of dollars.
But four years have passed, what has Cisco become?
Cisco went public on Nasdaq in February this year, and its stock price soared more than ten times on the first day, becoming one of the important representatives of emerging technology companies in the Lighthouse financial market.
Although technology companies these days are not as outrageous as decades later, in less than half a year, Cisco's market value has increased dozens of times.
What the men on Wall Street like most is this kind of profitable transaction. Cisco's success has allowed them to see new hype points and have begun to package computer-related companies to go public.
The Internet is the benefit multiplier of the computer industry, and Cisco is the leading company in Internet equipment.
With the mutual praise between the two parties, Cisco's prospects are limitless. Even no matter how smart investors on Wall Street cannot estimate where its value peak is.
Cisco in history once reached its highest market value of US$444 billion, so even if these people were fractured during the estimate, it was an incredible number.
Now Li Ye said that the engine electronic injection system has "better prospects", is it still a small business?
Now Pei Wencong is not short of money, but he is short of suitable investment projects. When he heard Li Ye "spoken the truth" again, how could he not mobilize others?
He is now afraid that Li Ye will be thrown out of the car! After all, Fu Guiru can do things he can do.
However, although Pei Wencong was anxious, he smiled relaxedly and said, "No matter how small a deal is, you have to take it seriously!
In addition, Wang'an Company has been wanting to talk about cooperation with us recently. I will bring more personnel to fully analyze the prospects for cooperation."
"Wang'an Company?"
Li Ye said in surprise: "Did they look for cooperation with you? When did it happen?"
Pei Wencong was also stunned and said, "It's been more than two months! Ms. Fu knew about this. We were also evacuating from Riben to the lighthouse, so I didn't reject him immediately."
Pei Wencong knew that Li Ye had a bad impression of Wang'an's company. After all, Li Ye brought Wen Leyu to internship, and the first time he came into contact with the lighthouse company was Wang'an's company.
At that time, Li Ye wanted to set up a computer company to develop personal computers for the East Asian market, and to get technical support from Pengcheng's Fengyu computers.
As the leader in the Chinese circle, Wang'an's company naturally feels closer.
However, at that time, Wang An happened to step down as chairman and handed over the burden to his son Wang Lie. Wang Lie felt that his family had a great career and looked down on the unknown Pei Wencong at all. He had no interest in running far away to Hong Kong Island to help others establish a computer company, so he deliberately left Li Ye and others for half an hour during the negotiations.
Li Ye stopped doing it at that time. Will the butcher Zhang still have to eat a pig with hair without him?
There are too many small and medium-sized computer companies with poor performance in Lighthouse. Who can’t cooperate if you have money?
Therefore, after the establishment of GF Investment Company, it not only spent a lot of money to establish a personal computer research center, but also poached a marketing manager of Wang'an Computer Company to Cisco as general manager.
Hong Kong Island Fengyu Computer has been established for four years. Relying on the vigorous development of emerging markets in East Asia, and then feeding back to the Lighthouse's technology R&D center, it is already in the first echelon in personal computer technology.
Chambers, who was poached by Li Ye, made Cisco's business prosperous and slapped Wang An's company in the face with his backhand.
So at this time, Wang'an's company suddenly came to the door to seek cooperation, what should it do?
Pei Wencong’s next sentence gave a reasonable explanation.
"Mr. Wang An passed away a few months ago. The situation of Wang An's company seems to be not very good now, so Wang Lie is now actively seeking suitable partners."
"Ha, he knows that he is actively seeking cooperation now?"
Li Ye smiled and said lightly: "Since it's cooperation, we have to ask for each need, but now we have no need for them anymore, so we still have a cooperation with yarn?"
""
Pei Wencong didn't understand what "wool" means, but he knew that Li Ye was unhappy.
The boss was unhappy, and I had to vent my anger on him.
"I understand Mr. Li, I will cancel the talks with them immediately."
Li Ye looked at Pei Wencong and asked with a smile: "Old Pei, don't you think I'm taking advantage of the situation, right?"
"No, absolutely nothing."
Pei Wencong hurriedly said, "Mr. Li, although Wang Lie is also a Chinese, he is not the same type of person as me and Ms. Fu. Even if everyone helps each other, they still have to benefit each other, and they are just business."
Li Ye nodded slowly: "You are not wrong with this. We are not the same type of people. There are also some other things you should be cautious. Wang'an's company has a close relationship with the Lighthouse Military and has a deep grudge with IBM. We are now working with him, and the time is not right."
Wang'an's company just won the large order of Lighthouse Air Force a few years ago, so their relationship with the military is not a secret, and Wang'an and IBM have been fighting for many years and are well known to everyone.
Now the helm leader, Mr. Wang An, has disappeared, and the company has chosen the wrong route, connections and market problems. Now he is working with Pei Wencong.
When Li Ye wanted to set up Fengyu Computer in Hong Kong, he also adhered to the principle of mutual benefit. But now Wang Lie has come to Pei Wencong, which is obviously "to take a custody before dying".
Pei Wencong is also a smart person who can understand what Li Ye means, but he also seized the keyword in Li Ye's words - "Is the time not right?"
"Mr. Li, do you think there is still a suitable time?"
Li Ye smiled lightly and said, "Wang'an Company was a wealthy family before, and it was not the right time to go bankrupt."
"I understand, understand!"
Pei Wencong nodded and agreed.
Chapter completed!
