"Hi, Zheng Yan, my friend, you are back. The past two years when you were away from the United States have been really bad. Larry's energy was all focused on beauties. It's hard for me to find someone to talk to.

."

Although Zheng Yan knew that Jobs was just joking, he could also see that he had been really unhappy in the past two years, otherwise it would have been impossible for him to say such words.

"Okay Steve, you have said yourself that beautiful women are Larry's biggest motivation for making money, so I don't find it strange at all what you said. By the way, this is my third brother Liu Wei, too

My partner with Larry."

"Hello, I am Liu Wei."

"Hello, I'm Steve."

After all, this was the first time Liu Wei and Steve Jobs met, and their self-introductions were very concise and concise.

"This is a gathering between friends. It's not an official meeting. Do you two need to be so formal? Come on, let's go in quickly. I don't like standing and chatting like this."

As Jobs's best friend, Larry Ellison naturally knew that after being betrayed one after another, Jobs was always very wary when making friends. His seemingly casual words were equivalent to releasing a secret to Jobs.

Signal, Liu Wei is also his friend.

"By the way, what did you talk about this afternoon?"

Jobs was also very happy about Zheng Yan's arrival, but he knew better that Zheng Yan, who had not been seen for several years, could not go to San Francisco for no reason. He was also very curious about the purpose of Zheng Yan's trip.

"Forget it, today I was given a good lesson by Zheng Yan, and he almost resigned from the position of president of Elite Technology. This is the first time in my career."

Jobs was really surprised when he heard Larry Ellison's words. Larry Ellison, who could even say things like bombing Microsoft, was actually taught a lesson by Zheng Yan?

"Oh? You actually have to be punished sometimes? What a pity. If I had known about this earlier, I would have put down what I was doing and rushed over. After all, such scenes are rare."

If it were someone else who was teasing him, Larry Ellison might get angry, but when faced with Steve Jobs, Larry Ellison wouldn't

Ben had no temper, "You already know about Elite Technology and IM, but Zheng Yan is not very satisfied with the progress of my work..."

"By the way, there is another thing that you must not have expected. Zheng Yan is also one of the shareholders of Netscape, which you rated highly at the time..."

Originally, the conversation in the afternoon was not a secret, and since the other party was Steve Jobs, Larry Ellison told what happened. Then he suddenly remembered the Netscape incident, and finally told it again with added detail.

"What? You actually invested in Netscape?" Jobs looked at Zheng Yan in disbelief.

"Is this weird? Why are you like Larry? You don't know that I have always been interested in the Internet industry. It seems normal to invest in Netscape, right?"

Jobs thought to himself: Normal? Normal is weird.

Needless to say, Cisco invested in it. It is now the largest network equipment manufacturer in the world. As for Oracle, it is also one of the largest software companies in the world. If you add in the hot Netscape, it seems that all Zheng Yan’s investments have been obtained.

Unimaginable rewards.

"Isn't it strange? Netscape is around us, but we didn't get the news until the company was established. And you became a shareholder of their company thousands of miles away. There is nothing weirder than this in the world.

?”

"To be honest, if they had found me, I would still have invested. Today's computers no longer just serve as computing tools, but have begun to assume communication functions. Maybe the computing function will become an auxiliary function in the future."

"I have known this for a long time, and I have always wanted to find an opportunity to participate, but I have never found one. However, compared to Netscape, I am more optimistic about your elite technology. It is just a pity that Larry went to Hong Kong City.

I wasn’t together at that time.”

It is no secret that Jobs is optimistic about the Internet. He once specifically mentioned this in an interview. This was one of the reasons that prompted him to close the hardware department of the computer company.

"Why, are you very interested in elite technology?" Zheng Yan asked jokingly.

"Is it possible that you are willing to let me raise funds?"

A hint of surprise flashed across Jobs' face

, then realized something was wrong and said: "I took it for granted. Everyone knows that you are not short of funds, only investment opportunities. How can you let others interfere with a promising enterprise like Elite Technology."

When Jobs thought about it, since Zheng Yan was the founder of Elite Technology and had made plans for the company's future, he naturally knew the company's potential. With no shortage of funds, there was no reason for him to get involved.

"Steve, let's not say whether we will accept your financing. I have another question for you. Don't you have any ideas about Apple anymore? Are you willing to watch Apple decline like this?

"

For Zheng Yan, now that Elite Technology has Larry Ellison, Liu Wei and Zheng Rong, there is no shortage of Steve Jobs. However, Zheng Yan is still waiting to share the profits from Apple. If Steve Jobs joins, it will

Zheng Yan cannot accept the impact of his return to Apple.

Jobs was also puzzled. Zheng Yan seemed to have concluded that he would eventually return to Apple. However, many of Apple's shareholders already wanted to package and sell the company and had no intention of inviting him back. Where did Zheng Yan come up with this idea?

judge?

What’s more, what we’re talking about now is obviously about Elite Technology, and there is no conflict between Elite Technology and Apple. No matter how you think about it, the two seem to have nothing to do with each other. Why would Zheng Yan put these two issues together?

Together?

Just when Jobs was confused, Larry Ellison said: "Zheng Yan, don't mention Apple. I also told Steve about this problem. I can help him buy Apple back.

With Apple's current stock price, this is not difficult."

"But he doesn't want to return to Apple in this way. He hopes that Apple will acquire the computer company and then bring the current technology with him. In my opinion, even if he goes back, he will not be able to truly control the company, which is totally meaningless.

"

It has to be said that Larry Ellison's madness is everywhere. Buying Apple? He is the only one who dares to say such a thing, and Zheng Yan believes that as long as Jobs nods, he will really do it. After all, Apple is currently
