Chapter 1130

Although Li Feng did not pay special attention to Starbucks, he had always heard of the name of Starbucks in his previous life. Moreover, in his previous life in China, Li Feng also went to Starbucks to have a drink from time to time. Howard Schultz, the boss of Starbucks, has heard some rumors and news.

The boss was originally an employee of Starbucks, but later he opened his own coffee shop and raised a sum of money. Later, he bought the old owner Starbucks, and then developed slowly. In 1992, he realized the listing of Starbucks.

When it was first listed, Starbucks was just a small company with only more than 100 chain stores and a market value of only $200 million and $300 million. Even now, Starbucks has only more than 2000 stores and a revenue of less than $1 billion. It is far from the super giant of 20000 or 30000 stores in the future.

At the same time, Li Feng also knows that although Howard Schultz, the boss of Starbucks, is known as the "boss", he is not worthy of his name. In fact, he, the chairman and CEO of Starbucks, occupies very few shares. Even later, the market value of Starbucks exceeded 100 billion, and the full value of Howard Schultz is just over 1 billion US dollars, This also includes its industries outside Starbucks.

Howard Schultz once left Starbucks, but it seems that he was invited back to preside over the work again after the 2008 financial crisis. Li Feng believes that there must be a dispute over Starbucks' power. Otherwise, why did he quit Starbucks suddenly? Later, Starbucks faced serious problems and was invited back again, just like the original Joe gang leader, This must involve the rights of the company.

Seeing the nominal boss of Starbucks at this party, Li Feng completely moved his mind. Of course, it was not a place for formal conversation on such an occasion. After greeting the people, he temporarily put down his mind, left business cards for each other, said goodbye to the people, and wandered around again under the leadership of Barry Ackley.

Next, I met many celebrities from all over Seattle, from Seattle City government officials to city councillors, Washington State Councillors and even the federal house, to many rich celebrities in Seattle, and then to many cultural, art and entertainment stars. It was really lively.

……

"John, I don't think I need to introduce this one!"

"Uh... Jeff, long time no see. I miss you very much!" Hearing the joke of Barry Ackley, an old rascal, Li Feng gave a squint, which made a pun greeting to the bald Bei in front of him.

Yes, with the continuous enhancement of Amazon, Bei bald has less and less hair on his head. Now he is just as bald as later generations. Li Feng still remembers that when he first came to Seattle to invest in Amazon, he just saw that bald Bei still had long hair. He was not used to seeing it. Now he has a trace of the "brilliance" of bald Bei in later generations.

"Well... John, long time no see!"

"Haha... John, let me introduce you to your friends..."

"This is..."

“…”

Seeing that Li Feng and Bezos were a little embarrassed, Barry Acton spoke to help Li Feng introduce the rest of the people next to him, including the leaders of the local rich consortium in Seattle and many shareholders of Amazon, including the Wall Street consortium and the local rich consortium in Seattle.

Li Feng has no doubt about this. After all, Amazon is now a large company with a market value of nearly $30 billion. Although it has not been established for a long time, its behind the scenes shareholders are naturally more and more complex.

Of course, even an invincible position, with more than 3 of Amazon's shares and a large number of authorized shares, Li Feng has been invincible. Now, Li Feng is more important in considering how to give himself the best step. After all, he has discovered that Amazon is almost at the end of the bubble before the bubble breaks.

What if injured in the sinews or bones of the market is to be enlarged and the stock will be broken. Then the loss will be great, though it will not be hurt. But Li Feng will not be foolish enough to know that such a situation is still going on.

......

"You guys, although I usually don't pay much attention to Amazon, I also know that Amazon is doing very well on NASDAQ. Speaking, I would also like to thank you for making my Amazon shares more and more valuable." After an introduction, Li Feng smiled and thanked everyone.

"Haha... John, as long as you don't blame us, Amazon's performance is exactly what we want to see, isn't it?" A vice president of a Wall Street consortium and a representative of Amazon's directors joked with a smile.

"Really, I really need to thank you!" Hearing this, Li Feng immediately replied with a pun again, making him suddenly shut up.

For the representatives of Wall Street consortia, Li Feng naturally knows that it is almost impossible to say that Jeff Bezos suddenly has such a change without the promotion of these behind the scenes consortia. Perhaps these consortia are preparing to receive Li Feng's Amazon shares, and many consortia on Wall Street are the main force of promotion.

After all, whether it was investing in Microsoft, Cisco or Yahoo, Li Feng withdrew one after another, which may give outsiders an illusion that Li Feng only wants a return on investment in these companies.

"John, in a sense, I'm really sorry for you. After all, you were the first to find me to invest and gave me absolute trust. However, with Amazon's current size, you don't think you have too many shares, although the outside world may not understand." Bezos didn't hide at this time and said directly to Li Feng.

"Well, it doesn't make sense to say this now, but since you already have this idea, I won't force it. Anyway, our cooperation was very pleasant before, and now Amazon has given me a huge return on investment.

Well, I can not participate in the capital and share increase this time, but I want to guarantee my rights. I will send people to participate in the whole process of capital and share increase. I will withdraw all voting rights and other rights. The board of directors can be increased to the list of nine people, but there can be no less than one of the three places belonging to me in the board of directors.

What if you agree that you can conduct the next round of capital and share increase negotiations according to the current market value of Amazon? "

"Eh... John, how do you...?"

Hearing Li Feng's words, both Barry Ackley and Bezos looked at themselves in a strange way.

……

"Eh... Is there anything strange about this? After all, Amazon is in Seattle, and I'm a little out of reach."

"Oh... No wonder, John, you're at the apple, but..."

Barry Ackley replied again, as if I understood. Similarly, the rest of the people have different thoughts, but at least on the face of it, they all look like this, which makes Li Feng feel that they are all movie emperor giants.

Of course, in fact, everyone was thinking about why Li Feng suddenly seemed to change his attitude. After all, Apple's lesson was still ahead. After a little test, apple directly intervened in apple and gained the greatest voice.

Amazon did it directly. As a result, the talented young man passed away. It seems that he does not meet the code of conduct of the genius. Is it really because Silicon Valley is too close to Los Angeles and Seattle is too far away.

Thinking of hearing such a strange reason as' because it's far 'from Li Feng's mouth, everyone silently replied in their hearts. This is not nonsense. I believe you are all fools!
