Chapter 82 (1/2)

Cook also did not expect that March ant company's attitude is so tough, today is the third time to be rejected, and are so straightforward. There has never been a day like this. Even if not, I can only bear it at this time. Otherwise, if we don't talk about acquisition, I'm afraid cooperation will become a problem.

This road is blocked. We can only find other paths.

”Ms. Zhao, may I have a talk with your chairman?” Cook broke the deadlock in the reception room.

Zhao Min smiled and looked at Xiaoyu. Xiaoyu immediately called chenmo and said, ”chenmo, Mr. cook wants to see you.”

”Good.”

After Xiaoyu hung up the phone, the reception room fell into silence again. Before long, Chen Mo pushed open the door of the reception room and came in.

”Mr. cook, this is our chairman, Chen mo.”

When he saw Chen Mo, cook's eyes were surprised. So young, too young. Stupefied for a few seconds, after waking up, cook stood up and shook hands with Chen Mo and simply said hello.

Cook didn't speak until Chen Mo sat down on the sofa: ”Mr. Chen Mo, I'm here to buy your company. Before we come here, we asked brand finance to make a value assessment of your company, which is 13 billion dollars. In my opinion, this valuation is low, so we offer a price of $15 billion to buy 100% of your company. ”

”Sorry, the company doesn't sell it.” Before Zhao Min could translate for him, Chen Mo began. His spoken English is poor, but cook can understand.

Chen Muru is as straightforward as here, which is expected by Zhao min. After translating Chen Mo's words, Zhao Min saw cook's face was ugly.

When Zhao Min refused, he was a little polite. Now Chen Mo opens his mouth, just a few words, and refuses directly, almost when he has just finished, he doesn't want to.

That's $15 billion, not $150. Chen simply made cook think he was wrong. But when it was confirmed, cook was in a bad mood.

Today is the most rejected day for him. US $15 billion, almost more than 90 billion of China's, is already a terrible figure.

”Mr. Chen Mo, it's 15 billion dollars.” Cook stressed.

”I know, not for sale.” Chen Mo said.

This time cook was sure what he had just heard was right.

”Since Chen doesn't want to sell the company, let's change the way of cooperation.” Cook immediately found a step down, otherwise it would be impossible to talk.

”You said.” Chen Mo said with a smile.

And Zhao Min, the president, also turned into a translator for the two.

”Can you raise money? We can finance your company. $8 billion, 51%. ”

”Our company is not short of money. Mr. cook would like to talk about other ways of cooperation. The shares of the company are not sold.” Chen Mo said.

Cook was silent. Just now he saw that Chen Mo's tone and appearance were firm. It seems that the way to control the March ant company is impossible.

”Then I say cooperation.” ”I hope the smart assistant will launch IOS,” Cook said

”It's not that I don't want to launch IOS, but I can't. We must have the core source code and architecture of the operating system, according to the code and architecture design, to launch. Without these, it can not run, or will be restricted by the mobile phone system as unknown software. Mr. cook, will you open the IOS source code to our company? ”

It's a problem that has baffled cook completely.

Open source to marching ants means Apple is completely bow to marching ants, which is absolutely not allowed to happen. According to Chen Mo, without developing the source code, the intelligent assistant will not work.

What to do?

A huge question mark appeared in Cook's mind, and the light in the bottom of his eyes was flashing.

There was a dead silence in the reception room and several people were waiting for cook's answer. After a long time, cook looked up: ”Chen, we can open source code, but there is a condition.”
