Dingling!!!

Early on Saturday morning, the doorbell rang outside the door.

Steve Gary Wozniak's mother heard the ringtone and immediately put down her work and went to open the door.

"Hello, who are you looking for?"

When he saw that he had a raw face and was a yellow man, Wozniak's mother couldn't help but ask in confusion.

Li Zetian replied with a smile: "Hello, my name is Chronos Lee, I'll look for Steve Gary Wozniak!"

"Please come in!"

"Thanks!"

Wozniak's mother took Li Zetian to the living room and then shouted loudly to the upstairs: "Steve, someone is looking for you!"

After a while, the master of technology Steve Gary Wozniak appeared.

But his appearance surprised Li Zetian. He was unkempt, long hair and big beard, and he was dressed like hippies nowadays.

However, it doesn’t matter how you look. It’s not a beauty pageant, just be good at skills!

Li Zetian stood up from the chair, showed a warm smile on his face, and greeted him: "Hello, Wozniak, I am Chronos Lee, an employee of Atari Company. I heard there that you are a very outstanding electronic engineer, so I came to visit!"

Wozniak seemed very surprised, "Hello, please sit down!"

"Do you have something to do with me?" he asked.

Li Zetian nodded and said straight to the point: "Actually, I came to you to work in the company you were invited to work!"

First, Wozniak did not know Li Zetian; secondly, he worked well at HP and was well treated, so he was unwilling to leave. So he refused, "Sorry..."

"Please don't refuse first, and you will make a decision when I finish speaking!!!" Li Zetian interrupted directly, "I am going to develop a personal computer that every family can afford. I need your help. Wozniak, if you can come to my company, although the salary cannot be compared with HP, I can give you 10% of the shares!" Li Zetian looked at his eyes sincerely and said.

Regarding the development and future of personal computers, Wozniak has discussed with others a lot in the Computer Club, and what Li Zetian said did not impress him.

"What is your company's name and how big is it?"

"The company is still registered and its name is Apple,"

As for the scale, it is even more embarrassing. Li Zetian is still the bachelor commander now and is embarrassed to say it out.

When Wozniak heard this, he was stunned for a while, thinking that such a company was simply unreliable. Not to mention giving away 10% of the shares, even giving away 20% of the shares is a bunch of useless numbers!

"Sorry, Chronos, thank you very much for your invitation, but I am very happy now at HP and don't plan to change jobs!"

Wozniak stood up and looked like he was seeing off the guests.

"You can think about it carefully. What we do is a great and creative thing. It has become a milestone in the history of computer development!!!" Li Zetian also stood up at this time and said slowly, "I will visit you again in the future. I hope you can agree to my invitation!"

Li Zetian said goodbye and immediately left Wozniak's house.

As soon as Li Zetian left, Wozniak's mother said to her son: "Steve, that man looked like a liar just now. You can't be stupid. Give up your job at HP and follow him to start a business!"

"Of course not, mother, haven't I rejected him?"

"But he still doesn't give up and will definitely come again!"

Indeed, Li Zetian came to visit Wozniak again at 7 o'clock in the evening.

At this time, Wozniak's parents were not very good at him.

Li Zetian looked at Wozniak and asked, "Wozniak, what are you thinking about? Do you want to stay at HP for the rest of your life and be an ordinary engineer, or are you willing to create a great new era with me!!!"

"Sorry, Chronos, my whole family doesn't support me in your company! At the same time, please don't come and persuade me again. I will not leave HP!"

When Li Zetian heard this, he felt as if he was struck by lightning. This time he came to California to poach Wozniak. However, his temple was small and he couldn't invite the great god at all.

Li Zetian said goodbye in disappointment, but he did not give up on his determination to develop a personal computer!

"Since I can't help Wozniak, I'll do it myself!!!"

A week later, Apple successfully registered in California, and is still a subsidiary established in the name of Umbrella, and is a wholly owned subsidiary.

Afterwards, Li Zetian quit his job at Atari and prepared to concentrate on developing Apple.

He began to look for a suitable place in San Jose as an office location, but the rent was too expensive, which discouraged Li Zetian. So Li Zetian asked the rental agency if anyone was willing to taxi garages. Unexpectedly, there were really many house owners who were taxi garages.

In fact, the American garage culture has a long history, including Disney garage, HP garage, Henry Ford garage, etc., of course, it also includes Microsoft, Apple, Google, Amazon in previous lives...

Li Zetian successfully rented a very spacious garage with a rent of US$300 per month. The owner of the house is also a Chinese named Tian Shuai. He is very young, about thirty years old.

Through chatting, Li Zetian learned that he was a top student at Stanford University, obtained an MBA Master of Business Administration degree. After graduation, he entered the American Enron Company, one of the world's largest energy, commodity and service companies. Four years later, he became a senior administrator. However, a week ago, he took the initiative to resign!

A Chinese can become a senior administrator in a Fortune 500 company like Enron in just four years, which is enough to show that he has outstanding abilities and a bright future. But why did he suddenly propose to resign?

This has to be very confusing.

Although he did not say why he voluntarily resigned, his words were full of dissatisfaction and disdain for Anron Company.

Li Zetian had a little news about Enron, but that was all in 2001 in his previous life. This year, Enron suddenly applied for bankruptcy protection from the New York Banking Court. The case became the second largest bankruptcy case in American history. However, what really made Enron famous all over the world was the financial fraud scandal that made this company with hundreds of billions of assets go bankrupt within a few weeks!

Li Zetian secretly speculated that perhaps after Tian Shuai's position was promoted to senior administrator, he had more contact with the company. When he found that Anran's company was secretly making fake accounts and corruption among senior executives, he was unwilling to join forces, so he took the initiative to resign. If this is the case, then Tian Shuai's character and talent merger would be a rare talent!

Li Zetian has been looking for someone who is trustworthy and capable to manage the Zhatian Company for him!

Li Zetian wants to develop Zhetian Company into a family office!

Family offices are very unfamiliar to many people, because only the world's top wealthy families have family offices!!!

The word family office originated from the great "Domus" (family supervisor) in the ancient Roman period and the great "Domo" (main housekeeper) in the medieval period. The family office in the modern sense appeared in the mid-19th century. Some tycoons who seized the opportunity of industrial revolution gathered financial experts, legal experts and financial experts, and the core content of the study was how to manage and protect the wealth and extensive business interests of their own family. In this way, a single family office that only serves one family (Single-

Family-Office, SFO). In 1882, John D. Rockefeller established the world's first family office, and then more and more top overseas wealthy families adopted this model to manage wealth, such as Morgan, Murdoch, Bill Gates, Hilton, Li Ka-shing, etc. When China developed, more and more people in the mainland began to choose to preserve family offices and inherit wealth, such as SOHO China Pan Shiyi, Longfor Real Estate Wu Yajun, Nine Dragons Paper Zhang Yin, etc.

However, Li Zetian was not completely relieved of Tian Shuai and would conduct a long-term investigation on him in the future.

"If he could be the CEO of Apple, he might be able to manage Zhatian Company for himself..." Li Zetian looked at Tian Shuai and immediately had the idea of ​​pulling him to Apple!
