Reborn Russia as an oligarch

Chapter 334 The largest shareholder

"I know, isn't it [-] million US dollars? As long as the agreement is signed, the money will be transferred to Apple's account immediately." Wang Ye said leisurely, and then turned his head to signal Milner.

Milner understood, opened a folder in front of him, pushed it to the leader of Joe, and said, "This is the proof of funds in the account of our Polar Bear Company in San Francisco. It is issued by Citibank and can be cashed at any time."

Leader Qiao took it over and took a look, it was indeed true!

The certificate issued by Citibank clearly stated that the San Francisco branch of Polar Bear Investment Company has $11 billion in cash in the company account!

The money was obviously earned by Wang Ye by shorting US stocks...

After reading the proof of funds, Leader Qiao finally believed it. The young man on the opposite side was not just talking nonsense, but really had the strength!
You know, this is real cash!
Instead of all kinds of messy loan fundraising and so on, it is cash that can be redeemed immediately!

"Well, I believe that the Polar Bear Investment Company came here with sincerity. There is no problem with this matter in theory. I will report to the board of directors and try my best to facilitate this investment!" Gang Leader Qiao said excitedly.

Eighty million dollars!
With this money, Apple is saved!

Many of my own plans can also be carried out smoothly.

I have to say that for the current Apple company, this money is absolutely as precious as a timely gift!

When he looked at Wang Ye again, Gang Leader Qiao's eyes were full of gratitude.

Cook was also overjoyed, and said: "The company's stock expansion financing has been discussed by the company's board of directors last time, so there should be no problem. The basic plan is that the company privately issues shares worth [-] million dollars to you Polar Bear Company , and the procedure is relatively simple, you only need to make an announcement.”

In the United States, because the finance is highly developed, all kinds of financing and investment are also very convenient, and the procedures are also simple.

"Then, I wish us a happy cooperation." Wang Ye said straightforwardly.

Leader Qiao had already stood up, leaned across the conference table and stretched out his hand.

Wang Ye also smiled and stood up, tightly holding hands with Chief Qiao.

…………

Today's negotiation went very smoothly. One is short of money and the other is rich.

In addition, Wang Ye didn't bargain, let alone take advantage of the fire, and directly agreed to Apple's condition, which is to invest according to the current market value of Apple, without any discount.

Apple's current market capitalization is US$42 billion, the stock price is five US dollars and a few cents, and the total share capital is 4000 million.

An additional 6000 million shares will be issued and sold to Polar Bear Investment Company.

Then Apple, after private placement and financing, owns one billion shares, of which Polar Bear Investment Company owns 6000 million shares, accounting for [-] million shares!
Although this proportion is not high, in fact, it has become the largest shareholder of Apple!
Originally Apple's largest shareholder was Fidelity Investments, accounting for about [-]% of the shares.

The second largest shareholder is Pioneer Group, accounting for [-]% of the shares.

Among the top ten shareholders, all are institutional investors.

As for the founder of Apple, Joe, how many shares does he hold?

Maybe no one would believe me if I said it out, the leader Qiao only has a symbolic share in his hands...

This is why he sold all his shares when he left Apple.

Even now that he has returned to Apple, although the contract has a share incentive policy, it has not been long since he came back, and the company's business has not really started, so he has not yet received the incentive shares.

In addition, it needs to be clarified that the current annual salary of Chief Qiao is US$[-]...

From the annual salary and shares, it can also be seen that this guy is really bearish on fame and fortune.

It's all about fighting for my own ideals...

Of course, he is not short of money himself.

After leaving Apple, Jobs successively founded NEXT and Pixar Animation Studios. In 96, his personal net worth reached hundreds of millions of dollars.

However, when Apple was in trouble, it is not clear why Gangzhu Qiao did not personally invest in the company and would rather introduce new shareholders.

…………

After signing the letter of intent for cooperation, Milner needs to discuss some details with Cook and others.

As for Gang Leader Qiao, he warmly invited Wang Ye, Kajia and the full-time translator brought by Wang Ye to his office.

For his character, this is already an expression of gratitude and recognition to Wang Ye.

Of course Wang Ye readily accepted the invitation. Chief Qiao's office is definitely worth a visit.

After all, in Wang Ye's previous life, this was a true legend!

Chief Qiao's office is not far from the meeting room, just walk through the corridor.

Opening the door, Leader Qiao stretched out his hand to invite the three of them in.

This office is not big, with an area of ​​only forty or fifty square meters, and the decoration is not luxurious at all.

It can even be said to be a bit crude, with ordinary desks, simple chairs, messy books, stationery and various electronic products everywhere.

Leader Qiao reached out to pick up a few magazines from the sofa and put them aside, and said a little embarrassedly: "The office is a bit messy, please forgive me."

Wang Ye smiled and said, "Understood, those of you who are engaged in technology, and those who are in Internet companies, all have such personalities. This is called order in chaos, right, haha..."

After inviting the three of Wang Ye to sit down, the leader Qiao brought three cans of iced Coke, cherry flavored, from the small refrigerator next to him, without asking Wang Ye and the three of them in advance if they wanted to drink...

In terms of dealing with the world, he was indeed as bad as the rumors said.

As soon as he sat down, Leader Qiao seemed to remember something, stood up again, went to a cabinet next to him, and took out a silver-white palm-sized object.

Handed it to Wang Ye and said, "Mikhail, look, this is the music player we just launched this year, IPOD!"

For this thing, Wang Ye really hadn't touched it before.

In his previous life, he also bought a few MP3s, but they were all traditional products such as Patriot, Ivery and even earlier Sony Walkman.

As for the name of Apple's IPOD, he has only heard of it, but has not bought it.

Compared with when Apple launched this product, Wang Ye was in college and did not have much money, so the price was not friendly to him.

Later, when money was available, IPOD basically withdrew from the stage of history, and at that time it was already the world of smartphones.

…………

I took it over and played with it. This thing is not small, much larger than the common MP3 players on the market, and the texture is much better.

The shell is made of aluminum-magnesium alloy, which is cool and smooth in the touch.

Moreover, Wang Ye knew that it was this gadget that completely saved the Apple company...
