Hollywood Starts with Animation

"Now the meeting continues~"

"If you agree to start the B round of financing at this stage, please raise your hand!"

Chairman George Samenook is very confident. He believes that the vast majority of shareholders and shareholder representatives are on his side. From the results of the previous two votes, it is not difficult to judge.

Microsoft's ambition to gobble up McAfee is the result most people don't want to see.

"I agree, I still insist on my judgment, and the expansion of shares and financing will speed up the development of the company." The shareholder Spunk took the lead.

As soon as the words fell, one or two shareholders scolded: "What a bastard~"

"I agree."

The person who spoke this time was a representative of Feng'an Software Company, which also had a number of cooperations with Microsoft, and basically followed Microsoft to eat.

"Seconded!"

"Agree!"

"Nothing, I support it!"

......

In a blink of an eye, those who agree to open the B round of financing have already held 27% of the shares in this area.

There are not many shareholders left without voting.

"Mr. Wald, what's your opinion?" Chairman George Samenook looked at Zucker with a smile.

Zhu Ke's opinion, he dare not ignore it.

The 15% stake makes Zucker the second-largest shareholder in McAfee, after George Samenook's 24% stake.

Zucker's opinion can be said to be very important.

"But...I'm not worried about him."

"As long as this guy Zucker Wald is not stupid, he will definitely not make Microsoft proud, otherwise he will also suffer."

George Samenook thought to himself.

"I agree!" Zucker smiled.

Whoa! ! !

As soon as the voice fell, there was an uproar at the scene.

George Samenook looked at Zucker like a ghost, and said in astonishment: "Mr. Wald, I didn't seem to understand just now, please say it again."

"I agree to start the B round of share expansion."

Zucker put his hands on the table and played with his taste: "As Mr. Spunk said, opening the share expansion at this stage can raise a large amount of cash flow for McAfee, accelerate the pace of development, and gain market share. What's wrong, I'm an investor and I don't think there's anything wrong with what I'm doing."

"......"

George Samenook's expression did not change, but... a storm surged in his heart.

He never imagined that Zucker would support Microsoft!

"What's going on here?" a shareholder asked in a low voice to the person beside him.

The man shook his head and said, "You ask me, who am I to ask?"

Many people present were talking about it.

"Zuke Wald himself did not attend the meeting two times before, but his representative has always been on Mr. Samenook's side. How could he suddenly defect?"

"There's a problem here!"

"Pompeii, aren't you talking nonsense? Who doesn't know there's a problem here, maybe there's something to be gained."

"Damn, this is simply bringing wolves into the room!"

......

You must know that the original percentage in favor is as high as 27%, and with Zucker's 15% in favor, the number of votes supporting the opening of the B-round share expansion is already as high as 42%.

Meanwhile, Microsoft holds a 10% stake in McAfee.

This means that no one else is required to vote, and the total proportion has already exceeded 50%.

On the Microsoft side, this board win!

"Ha ha!"

Hinkels, the representative of Microsoft, said proudly: "Although I still need to express my opinion, I believe that it is not necessary to say more, you also know our opinion. However, I still have to say that I represent Microsoft on the current stage. B round financing, vote yes!"

"Hahaha, this should have happened long ago." Shareholder Sphink applauded.

Shareholder representatives of the entire Microsoft system are very happy at this moment.

"Humph!"

George Samenook snorted coldly, his heart full of unwillingness.

He really didn't understand what Zuke was thinking?

Who in normal would agree to let Microsoft take control?

As we all know, for any company controlled by Microsoft, their follow-up actions are bound to increase capital injection and dilute the equity of other shareholders.

However, it is too late to say anything.

The dust has settled!

......

After the meeting...

McAfee Chairman George Samenook, once again, met Zucker alone.

"Mr. Zucker Wald, how can you support Microsoft?"

"What's in it for you?"

"Aren't you worried that your shares will be diluted by Microsoft?"

George Samenook asked three questions.

Zucker shrugged and said with a smile, "Microsoft agreed to sell me a portion of Apple's stock held by them at the market price. You say, what reason do I have to object?"

"Then you don't care about the life and death of McAfee?" Samenook gritted his teeth.

At this moment, he was full of anger.

His eyes were like sharp knives, staring at Zu Ke.

Damn, who are you scaring?

"Haha. Please, let Microsoft win a game, what's the big deal. You are too pessimistic." Zucker joked.

If Zucker doesn't support Microsoft, is there nothing Microsoft can do?

Do not!

As far as Zucker knows, Microsoft has once again launched a series B financing plan two months later in the history of the original time and space.

And with 54% approval rate, it was forced to pass the vote.

That is to say, even if Zucker is on Samenuk’s side, Microsoft still has a way to pass the vote. In this case, why not trade Apple’s stock through Microsoft.

Besides... Others don't know Samenuk, so doesn't Zhu Ke, who is a transmigrator, also understand?

Microsoft is strong.

But...he Samenook is not a good bird either!

In 2007, American regulators launched an investigation into McAfee's financial statements over the past 10 years and found that McAfee had huge problems with non-cash expenses related to stock option awards. The amount of spending in question is as high as $100 million to $150 million.

To this end, McAfee CEO Kavy Weiss was fired; as many as 12 executives from McAfee resigned;

Even the chairman Samenuk himself was forced to retire early;

Although there is no name of Samenook in the list of offenders published by the American regulatory agency, as long as they are not blind, they all know that Samenook must have something to do with this.

"Mr. Wald, you will regret it sooner or later. Microsoft is the master of eating people without spitting bones!"

Zu Ke also smiled coldly.

Sorry for the egg!

Regardless of how strong Microsoft is now, its tentacles extend to every corner of the Internet, but in 2000, Microsoft was investigated by relevant departments and accused of forming a monopoly, coupled with the arrival of the Internet bubble, in order to maintain sufficient cash chain, Microsoft can only Tears sold a large number of shares in the holding company.

Well, that includes McAfee shares.

"So, what is there to worry about, Laozi?"

"Even if Microsoft doesn't give up McAfee by then, that's fine. Compared to Apple's momentum in the future, what is McAfee worth?!"

Zucker has been thinking about Apple shares held by Microsoft for a long time.

Drive home!

Alexander suddenly said: "Boss, you offended Samenuk to death~"

Hearing this, Zhu Ke said disdainfully: "If you offend, you will offend. Who doesn't have a few enemies these days. What can he do if he has another Samenook? I'm afraid of him? Haha!"

The second update of "" was sent, and the minister continued to open the third update.
