Chapter 42 (1/2)

In Apple's conference room, the atmosphere was very dignified. Everyone didn't speak and looked at Mike Makula. After all, jobs, Wozniak and rowan are partners who have experienced entrepreneurship in the garage together. Moreover, baozixuan did not want to buy their shares, and Mike makura, as an angel investor, has completed his mission well. It's time to introduce capital that can develop and grow the company.

Wozniak: ”Mike, that's what black cloud wants to take a stake in. He said baozixuan to Mike Makula.” But he didn't say that baozixuan didn't want to dilute their shares for fear of losing his entrepreneurial passion.

After all, it is inevitable to sacrifice shares now. Apple computer without black cloud office software is at best a big toy, so we can only sacrifice angel investors.

Mike Makula: ”I see what you mean. As an angel investor, I can quit, but I hope to get the dollars I deserve. Apple can't develop so rapidly without me. I hope to interview people from black cloud.”

Steve Jobs: ”that's no problem. The package of black cloud company will come to the company tomorrow morning to discuss the details of cooperation. You can negotiate with him first. If there is no agreement, we are considering the next plan. ”

After dinner with Joe Johnson, Bao Zixuan returned to the hotel without even drinking. After all, drinking is not allowed in the United States without being over the age of 21. He doesn't want to be caught by unfamiliar customers.

The next morning, steamed stuffed bun Xuan came to apple. At this time, steamed stuffed bun Xuan and Mike Makula sat opposite each other in Wozniak's office. After a few greetings, they got to the point.

Mike makura: ”you're younger than I thought, bag. Apple was originally an investment for me, but since I got in touch with these young people, I exuded my passion for work. To tell you the truth, I don't really want to quit. With the working attitude of these people and the addition of black cloud, Apple will develop rapidly. So I thought all night last night that I could sell most of my shares to you. I need to keep some. How's it going! ”

Bao Zixuan: ”it's not impossible, but if you want to keep the shares, the price may drop to a certain extent. After all, I have to lose a lot of interests to ensure that part of the equity you keep. How much do you want to keep? ”

Mike makura: ”of course, I want to keep 5% ~ 10% of the shares. It depends on your price.”

Bao Zixuan: ”I don't want to waste my energy on endless business negotiations. I can create more value in the laboratory and in front of the computer. You now have 30% of the shares of apple, and I want 25%. How much do you say you can transfer to me? ”

Mike makura: ”I'm also a technician. I understand what you think. I'll sell you 25% of the shares for $5 million. ”

Bao Zixuan: ”are you sure apple is worth $20 million?”

Mike makura: ”I wasn't sure, but with the joint efforts of black cloud and apple founders, it will soon exceed this number.”

Bao Zixuan: ”OK! you are right. As long as everyone works hard, nothing can't be accomplished; There is nothing that cannot be achieved; What's more, we should believe Steve. They are all geniuses. Maybe apple can be worth $200 billion in the future. Who knows. I agreed. Enjoy your cooperation! ” Then he reached out his hand to Mike Makula, and Makula reached out and held it with him.

Everyone was anxiously waiting in the conference room for the results of the negotiations between Bao Zixuan and makura, because if they could not reach an agreement, all the plans would be pushed down and started again, and everyone's shares would be diluted, which was related to everyone's vital interests.
