Rebirth

Chapter 1101 The first cooperation with the richest man

"John, I haven't congratulated you yet. I won Lanai, the Pearl Island of Hawaii!" After several people walked to the party hall and sat down, Gates classmate smiled and congratulated Li Feng.

"Haha..., good luck. It just so happens that Rupert is eager to deal with me, so I took it as part of the deal. By the way, I heard that Bill, you were married on Lanai a few years ago. For the ceremony, I think you should set up a sign where you held the wedding ceremony. The place where the world’s richest man and Microsoft President Bill Gates got married. I think this will definitely become one of Lanai’s most famous business cards. What do you think? "" Hearing our richest man congratulated with a look of envy, Li Feng immediately replied jokingly.

"Haha... John, I think your proposal is good. I think this will attract a large number of tourists to Lanai Island. Perhaps the most notable one is the men and women who are about to get married. After all, this is the wedding blessing of the richest man, right? "Wadley on the side suddenly laughed and interjected.

"amount…"

"Haha..."

"..."

With Wadley's jokes, in conjunction with the speechless expression of Gates, the richest man, he immediately made everyone big and small again.After all, there are really not many opportunities to see the helpless and speechless expression of the richest comrade. Think about it, it's just a burst of Coke.

"So Mr. Li, you are ready to develop Lanai Island well, are you ready to talk about turning into a tourist resort in Hawaii?" After laughing, Isado Sharp, the helm of the seasons, asked with a smile.

"Yes, since Lanai has been bought, it will never be left vacant. After Christmas and New Year, real estate companies, tourism and design companies will take over the design." Did not hide, smiled and replied.

"In this case, John, according to what I know about you, I think you should have a general idea. Our Four Seasons Hotel is also in Lanai, and it is currently the only luxury hotel on Lanai. We are also very concerned about Chennai Island, or should we invest part of it?" Gates suddenly suggested with a smile at this time.

"You? Four Seasons?"

"Yes, as you said, I have very fond memories of Lanai Island, and if you can directly invest in an island in a resort like Hawaii, this should also be a good investment opportunity."

"..."

Seeing Li Feng sinking into thought, the three Gates suddenly reduced their smiles and stared at Li Feng sternly.

...

"It's not impossible. After all, I bought Lanai. First, I hope to have a private holiday place without interruption. Second, it can be regarded as an asset investment. And Lanai is too big. People can't live in such a large place. Since this is the case, the development of Lanai is naturally an inevitable process.

My goal is to build Lanai into the world’s top private holiday destination, which is only open to members. It is targeted at the wealthy people in the world. I want Bill and Wadley to participate and perhaps speed this up. One-step establishment."Li Feng explained his idea directly.

"Oh... John, I am very interested in your Lanai Island development plan. Can you tell me more about it?" Wadley, the Saudi prince, couldn't help but responded directly.

That's right, Wadley couldn't help it at first, after all, Li Feng's proposal was in line with Wadley's mind.

The Wadley family was forced to stay away from the power center of the Saudi government due to the reasons of his father. The Wadley family is still mainly developing business, but when the business has developed to the point where Wadley is now, it is involuntary The involvement with the Saudi royal family is getting closer. After all, Wadley's development is inseparable from the support of the government and the royal family.

Similarly, Wadley is still a bit unwilling to be forced to stay away from the center of power in Saudi Arabia. Otherwise, the prince will not be investigated by the Saudi government or even face jail. Obviously, in the political map of Saudi Arabia. , Wadley is ambitious.

For Wadley, how to make his influence continue to expand is the most important thing for him, and Li Feng's vision is perfect to allow Wadley to increase his influence and network resources.

It can be imagined that if Lanai’s future investment is led by Li Feng, a young genius and the richest man in the future, as well as the current richest man and his own richest man in the Middle East and a prince to join, relying on the network of three people, I believe Lanai must be It will become a holiday destination and social place in the world's top circles.

Similarly, I am full of confidence in the development of Lanai Island. The resources of the major companies and affiliated companies under the three can be started. In addition to their own enterprises, there are natural resource advantages, such as Skyline Hotel and Waldorf Astoria. The three major five-star hotels, including the hotel and Four Seasons Hotel, have a wide range of top customer resources.

What's more, for example, Li Feng wears a pair of trousers with Hilton Hotel Group and has extensive cooperation with MGM Hotel Group. Similarly, Gates and Wadley also have huge network resources around the world. If these resources are used, Coupled with the natural influence of the three people, Lanai Island is not well-known.

...

It was because of this that Wadley became very excited, but wanted to get involved.

Naturally, Li Feng also thought of the Tao. Although he can develop it himself, if Gates and Wadley, two business leaders with great influence in the world, can participate together, obviously, it will be useful for expanding Lanai Island. Popularity is a huge help.

As Li Feng explained the general idea in his mind, Bill and Wadley were very excited, especially Li Feng said that in the future, he could even directly establish a business league club or something. Think about it, if some of the world’s top rich groups set up a The benefits of clubs, leagues, etc. to all parties are obvious.

"John, I think since you told us this, you really didn't think about it. You see, Wadley can't wait." Gates classmate returned to silence at this time, and then smiled to the side. Deli quipped.

"Haha..., Wadley don't worry, since I have said so, naturally I will not refuse your cooperation."

"OK, let's talk about it!"

"Hehe..., OK, let's go, you two also invest in Lanai, how about I sell part of Lanai's ownership to you two?"

"How much equity?"

"I will give you two 47%."

"47%, as far as we know, John owns 98% of Lanai."

"Hehe, I think it shouldn't be a secret, is it!"

"John, we both need 51%, and you know that even so, you are still the first shareholder."

"It's not the same, both of you should understand. I didn't think about involving others. At first, I wanted to do it slowly. This time, Bill and Wadley's unexpected proposal, I won't refuse. , But I bought Lanai before, and I will not give up control."

"I think it is feasible, but John, our 47% of the shares need to have corresponding voting rights, and if you want to sell John in the future, we have the right of first refusal."

"Haha... Bill, it seems that you have been frightened by Microsoft's board power struggle recently. That's OK, just as you said."

"Haha..."

"..."

...

In fact, Gates really has this concern. Although Li Feng still controls Lanai Island, the two are relieved to hear that Li Feng has agreed to own 47 shares and voting rights.

In fact, most of the early companies were like this, not like later generations. For example, the later generations of Ali. Papa Ma controlled the company with less than 10% of the shares. If this was 20 years ago, it is estimated that the company would have been There's nothing wrong with Dad Ma.

The founding team of later generations has control over the company’s affairs and voting rights that far exceed the share of the company. It is one of the basic choices of many startups. But in the early days, there was no such thing, or someone like Jobs would not. I was driven out by the company I founded.

Similarly, Gates didn't think so far when he founded the company. In the beginning, Gates controlled enough shares, and Microsoft is far from the current market value scale, so it naturally allows it to develop with peace of mind.

However, as the market value of Microsoft continues to make an exaggerated leap, and all parties are coming in, Gates has to continue to share shares in order to survive safely. As the equity continues to decrease, Gates’ right to speak in Microsoft has naturally been continuously weakened. , Otherwise, why did Gates start to fade out of Microsoft management at such a young age.

This cooperation is a very good opportunity. Li Feng is to deepen the cooperation with Gates and Wadley. After all, the two will have a huge influence in the world in the future; for Gates and Wadley, they can It is also a very good thing to deepen cooperation with Li Feng, a genius boy. After all, whether it is Li Feng's current strength or future potential, it is worthy of the two to draw in and deepen their friendship.
