Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981

Later, the big guy became the first co-founder of a great company born in a garage.

In [-], Jobs and his friends Woz and Wayne established Apple, which is well-known to later generations, in the underground garage.

From 1980 to [-], in just four years, the company established in the underground garage was successfully listed on the exchange, thus creating four billionaires and dozens of millionaires in one fell swoop.

Jobs, who was only 25 years old, became the youngest billionaire at that time with his own efforts, and his life was as amazing as opening and closing.

However, God seems to be displeased with the success of this boss, and let reality give him a blow.

The new CEO of Apple, a manager who was personally invited to Apple by Jobs, said that because of Jobs, he said, "Do you want to sell sugar water for the rest of your life, or do you want to change the world with me?"

Sculley, who was once the youngest CEO of PepsiCo in history, joined the fast-growing Apple because of Jobs' words.

Sculley, who was personally invited by Jobs to Apple as CEO, kicked Jobs out of Apple because of their disagreement. After Jobs left, another founder of Apple also sold his shares and left.

Of the three founders of Apple, one left before Apple went public, and the two resolutely left because they disagreed with the new CEO.

When a company loses its founder in the growth stage, this is not only the tragedy of the founder, but also the tragedy of the company.

As a descendant, Yang Chen is very aware of how powerful Jobs is.

Therefore, after he took control of Wangan Computer, he contacted Jobs as soon as possible. As a shareholder of Apple, he was personally helpless when other shareholders and management asked Jobs to leave.

Besides, Jobs' personality.

To be honest, Jobs' character is really not very likable, but every great person always has some places that are incompatible with others, so Yang Chen can understand.

As a shareholder of Apple, Jobs still has a good impression of Yang Chen, because Yang Chen has always maintained his attitude of supporting him during his most difficult times, and has never changed.

This kind of unreserved trust was something he had never encountered before, and Jobs was very grateful for it.

So, after receiving Yang Chen's call, Jobs immediately put down his work and rushed over in person.

After resigning from Apple, Job was not decadent. He sold some of his Apple shares and cashed out hundreds of millions of dollars to set up a computer animation company.

This company, founded by Jobs for the second time, later became a well-known 3D computer animation company, and was acquired by Disney when it entered the 21st century.

As a result, Jobs became Disney's largest individual shareholder.

A great man, no matter where he goes, he can make a lot of achievements.

Whether it's Apple or the newly established computer animation company, Yang Chen is very interested.

Compared with Europe, America and island countries, the inland animation of later generations is more than a star and a half behind. If he can take a stake in Jobs' animation company, it will be a good supplement to Asia Entertainment.

After Yang Chen asked Jobs to sit down, he made tea and greeted him again and again: "Steve, nice to meet you, how are you doing recently? Are you okay?"

Jobs smiled bitterly: "It's a bit bad. My new animation company is a headache."

After finishing speaking, Jobs smiled and said: "I just saw Yang in the car and you bought Wang An Computer for a billion dollars. God, Yang, you are really rich. The New York Times has already called you The new king of computers."

Yang Chen shook his head and said, "I don't know technology."

Jobs shrugged and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't have technology, as long as you have money."

For capitalists, Jobs can be said to hate them to the core. Even after so long, he still feels a little unhappy in his heart.

This is why after he founded the animation company, he did not accept investment from any investors, and invested all with his own funds.

Yang Chen didn't care, and said lightly: "Don't forget, you are also a rich man now, one of the evil capitalists."

"Uh..." Jobs choked when he heard this.

Indeed, now that he is worth billions, he is not a member of the evil capitalists. Thinking of this, Jobs immediately shut up.

after awhile

Yang Chen said something that knocked Jobs down.

"Steve, do you want to work on your animation company for the rest of your life, or do you want to change the world with me?"

Jobs: "..."

Mom sells batches, this sentence is so familiar.

Soon, Jobs couldn't help but think of the words he said to Sculley when he poached Pepsi's corner, "Do you want to sell sugar water for the rest of your life, or do you want to change the world with me?"

For a while, Jobs' face turned blue and white.

Obviously, he mistakenly thought that Yang Chen was mocking him.

Jobs was a little displeased and said, "Yang, are you trying to mock me?"

That is to say, the person sitting opposite him is Yang Chen. If it were someone else, even if it was the president of the United States, he would shake his face and get up and leave.

In the nearly two years since he left Apple, Apple did not have any problems because of the departure of the two founders, but ushered in a short-lived glory.

So, even though he knew that Yang Chen wasn't the kind of person who liked to mock others, he still felt uncomfortable subconsciously.

"Why do you think I'm mocking you? You know I said that no matter what you decide, it's right, and I will fully support it. In my opinion, Apple's loss of you is their biggest loss. Maybe Apple The company looks good now, but I think this kind of good is only temporary and won't last long."

Hearing Yang Chen's words, Jobs couldn't help but relax.

Jobs was a little puzzled, "Then, Yang, what do you mean?"

Yang Chen doesn't own many shares in Apple. It should be said that Yang Chen's investment companies have strict shareholding restrictions on technology stocks, with a maximum of no more than 20.00%.

And Yang Chen only holds 20.00% of Apple's shares. With this share, there is no way for him to return to the company. This made him wonder what the other party meant.

With Jobs' puzzled expression on his face, Yang Chen said: "Wang An Computer, I wonder if you are interested in leading a company with a larger scale and more potential than Apple?"

"What?" Jobs stood up in a gaffe, with a face full of disbelief, "You said you want me to lead Wang An Computer?"

Yang Chen nodded and said: "That's right, to lead Wang An Computer Company, as long as you want, I can give you all the rights you want, and I won't interfere in any of your decisions."

After hearing this, Jobs still couldn't believe it and said, "Aren't you kidding me?"

Yang Chen: "Do you think I'm like the kind of person who likes to joke around?"

Jobs took a serious look at Yang Chen, seeing that he didn't seem to be joking, then sat back in his seat and fell silent.

To be honest, he didn't expect Yang Chen to invite him here for this matter, to lead Wang An's computer, if he said he was not tempted, it would be a lie.

Compared with Wang An Computer, Apple is too weak. You must know that Wang An Computer can compete with IBM at this time, and Apple is a few streets behind Wang An Computer in this respect.

Both Apple and Microsoft now need to rely on IBM to survive. Once IBM cancels its cooperation with the two companies, it is really hard to say how long the two companies can survive.

In addition, the talent and technology reserves of Wang An Computer are far from what Apple can compare. The talent and technology background that can make even IBM envy shows how powerful Wang An Computer is.
