Chapter 130 First Meeting Joey
The straight-line distance from City J to the Portland Shipyard is 3,800 kilometers. The only option is to fly there, and even the flight time takes nearly 4 hours.
Portland Shipyard is located on the east coast of country a, adjacent to the Atlantic Ocean. It is a shipyard with a shipbuilding history of more than 100 years. It is the largest private shipyard in country a and the only shipyard that can build aircraft carriers.
The shipyard has a close relationship with the A military. Before departure, Mr. Lie repeatedly told Guan Hao to be careful and keep a low profile. The entire shipyard was filled with spies from Bureau F and Bureau C. If you are not careful, you will be investigated.
Especially Guan Hao's yellow characteristics, you must be careful.
Guan Hao naturally understood the powerful relationship. He very carefully changed his appearance. His tall body was paired with a flat head and a mustache, making him look very mature and giving the impression that he was at least twenty years old. He looks four or five years old.
Guan Hao, as the business representative of the Caishen Foundation, went to discuss the progress of the archaeological mother ship previously ordered by the Caishen Foundation. He had a work certificate and a business dispatch letter, and his identity was impeccable.
In this way, Guan Hao could legitimately go to the slipway of the Portland Shipyard to observe the construction of the archaeological mother ship.
Guan Hao also had another purpose for this trip, to go to H City to meet a person, a god-like person who Guan Hao had longed for in his previous life.
This person is the founder of Mango Company. Curry Joey Guan Hao, who is now kicked out by Mango Company, specifically told Quark Country A to fully and timely grasp the equity of Mango Company and the movements of important founders.
So after learning that Guan Hao was going to the Portland Shipyard on the East Coast, Quark's business intelligence department provided a document about the sale of Mango Company shares and Curry Joy.
Guan Hao got the file and couldn't wait to open it. The contents inside made me ecstatic.
It turns out that since Curry Joy was kicked out from the position of chairman of the company he founded: Mango Company, he founded an Internet company. Now the company has experienced problems and is in urgent need of a sum of funds to tide over the difficulties.
With the help of people from the God of Wealth Foundation and the Red Cross Society of City J, Cook A Company established an efficient business intelligence system in a short period of time. As a priority mango company, it naturally became the target of pervasive business informants. .
When Curry Joey came out of Mango Company, he still held a large number of shares in Mango Company. Although he is no longer in Mango Company, he is still one of the largest individual investors in Mango Company. According to incomplete statistics, Curry. When Joey left, he held 11.3% of Mango's shares. Unfortunately, such a high shareholding specifically provided no voting rights.
After leaving Mango Company, Curry Joy took a short break and founded a new company.
Prior to this, Curry Joy sold 2% of his shares in exchange for start-up funds for the newly founded: New Windows Operating System Company.
This time Curry intends to sell his Mango shares, the specific amount is unknown.
The current Mango Company can be said to be experiencing real internal and external troubles, and its stock price has hit rock bottom. Selling Mango shares now is really not a wise move. Curry would not sell it if it was not a last resort.
Under Guan Hao's special instructions, the God of Wealth Foundation has been collecting shares of Mango Company. Through a series of operations by Zhang Yuan: before Microsoft's 95 system was launched, the God of Wealth Foundation acquired 8.6% of all Mango shares from Microsoft at a high price. , and through the State Street Bank of Country A, which has a close relationship with the God of Wealth Foundation, it acquired 6.9% of Mango shares that it was not optimistic about. After the 95 system was launched, it became free to use and well received by ordinary computer and home computer users. The stock price of the proud Mango Company plummeted.
Thanks to Zhang Yuan's refusal, Caishen Foundation has been bargain-hunting all the way in the circulation area and distribution channels. In the past seven months, Caishen Foundation has been bargain-hunting and acquired 4.7% of Mango Company's shares at the lowest price.
After such operations, the God of Wealth Foundation obtained a total of 20.2% of the shares of Mango Company. Most of them are valid shares with voting rights.
Now the God of Wealth Foundation is the majority shareholder of Mango Company.
This is more than 10% more than the Mango Company shares held by Buffino's Atomic Fund.
According to Zhang Yuan’s feedback, the Atomic Fund also actively participated in the process of bargain-hunting Mango Company’s tradable shares.
It seems that the old fox Buffy is also optimistic about the Mango Company, which is in the trough. Maybe there will be competitors on this trip to the east coast.
Thinking of this, Guan Hao was a little worried and inexplicably a little excited: since his rebirth, he would finally be competing on the same stage with world-class celebrities.
Guan Hao will first take the direct flight to City H tomorrow morning. From a geographical point of view, the Portland Shipyard in City H, the capital city, is very close, just over 300 kilometers away.
Guan Hao's itinerary was to first go to City H to meet with Curry Joey to discuss Mango stocks, and then go to the Portland Shipyard to learn about the construction progress of the archaeological mother ship.
Therefore, another purpose of Guan Hao is to contact Curry in the name of the senior business representative of the God of Wealth Foundation, and if conditions permit, directly acquire Curry's Mango shares.
Of course, Curry Joey's new company is also among Guan Hao's acquisition intentions.
Zhang Yuan drove Guan Hao to the airport to catch the morning flight to City H.
In January, the weather in country A was extremely cold and it was easy for a blizzard to occur. Guan Hao chose business class to go to city h in a low-key manner.
The first half of the flight went very smoothly, but in the second half, due to heavy snowfall in City H and the airport's takeoff and landing restrictions, the plane first circled over City H for several times, and then landed in City Z, which is more than 400 kilometers away.
Helplessly, Guan Hao had no choice but to wait in the waiting hall of Z city's small airport terminal for the weather to improve.
As soon as he got off the plane, Guan Hao found that the airport departure hall was overcrowded. It can be imagined that they were all passengers who were going to City H and were planning to land here due to the snowstorm.
Now that he has arrived, he is at peace with himself. Guan Hao stopped worrying about the weather and simply opened his luggage: a Prada leather backpack and took out the laptop inside.
The computer was Zhang Yuan’s new New Year gift for Guan Hao. It was Mango’s newly launched high-performance business notebook: pb5300ce. I found a seat in a corner and started working.
Guan Hao now has his own team, and there are three executive teams alone. One is Quark International, which is in charge of Guan Zhuolin, the other is Pengcheng Zangya, who is in charge of Wu Wanli, and there is an underwater archaeological team composed of the children of Guan, Zhang, and Huang.
As the only heir of the Huang family, in order for Guan Hao to be familiar with the complex business environment in advance and to be able to control the God of Wealth Foundation at any time, Mr. Lie ordered Zhang Yuan to involve Guan Hao in the daily decision-making and major strategic deployment of the foundation as much as possible.
Therefore, the young Guan Hao has to deal with a lot of things every day. Considering this, Zhang Yuan equipped Guan Hao with a laptop that can access the Internet at any time.
While Guan Hao was concentrating on playing with the new Mango pb5300ce, a young white man took the initiative to greet him: "Sorry to bother you! Is the laptop you are using Mango's new pb5300?"
When Guan Hao saw someone taking the initiative to greet him, he put down what he was doing and politely replied to the person: "Hello, yes, this is Mango's new laptop."
The white man in front of me is polite, dressed in ordinary clothes, tall, with blue eyes and beautiful natural curly hair.
"Hello, actually, Cook. Joy, nice to meet you!"
"You - are Joey, Cook Joey, the founder of Mango Company? Oh my God! You are Cook Joey! It's really unbelievable."
When Guan Hao heard Joey introduce himself, he was so excited that he couldn't speak clearly.
Looking at the excited expression of the yellow man who was much younger than himself, Cook Joy was also a little surprised. He was only the founder of Mango Company, and he was also the founder who was kicked out of Mango Company. Mango Company had a huge influence on the Internet in the past few years. It was indeed very popular when it first emerged, but now it is heavily suppressed by Microsoft. Mango Company is considered an early development company among Internet companies. Compared with later generations, it is not yet a world-famous leading company, let alone Cook. Joey has always been very low-key, and not many people know him.
Being excited by Guan Hao made Cook a little confused about how to deal with it.
Guan Hao was still clever. He immediately stretched out his hand and said to Cook who was standing aside: "Hello, Guan Hao is actually from country C. I have seen your introduction in the newspaper. You are my idol."
"Haha, hello, Guan! Can you tell us your experience using pb5300?"
"This was just a gift from a friend, and I just started using it. I think the design of this laptop is great and its performance is better than all previous laptops."
"If you were asked to make suggestions for improvements, what would you suggest? Sorry, Guan! It's a bit presumptuous, I mean if it's convenient!"
"Well, if there are design flaws of this notebook, I think there is only one, it is too expensive! Mine is the top configuration of pb5300, and it cost a total of 11,000 dollars." Guan Hao started. A joke.
"Haha! It's true. Is there anything else? Guan!"
"Another advantage is that in this damn weather, this laptop can be used as a hand warmer. If you don't believe me, just touch it and see that the battery is very hot and can actually warm your hands!"
"Guan, did you know? In order to have a more ideal cruising time, the design department increased the capacity of the battery. This will inevitably increase the overload of the battery, and the problem of heating is inevitable."
"This is understandable, but I would like to remind the after-sales service department of Mango Company that it is recommended that the duration of use of pb5300 should not exceed two hours. Pay attention to the continuous charging time as there is a risk of explosion of the battery."
"Guan, thank you for your advice!" Cook Joy thanked Guan Hao sincerely.
Chapter completed!
