On the "Wall Street Weekly" program by Public TV (PBS), a guest was talking: "...No doubt, Microsoft's behavior is not illegal or illegal. However, the relatively concentrated equity does damage the rights and interests of small shareholders. Therefore, Bai Lianhua's accusations are well-founded. I personally believe that in order to dispel investors' doubts, Microsoft should take the initiative to issue new shares or Mr. Bill Gates to reduce their holdings."

Another guest raised an objection: "...Don't forget that Microsoft was founded by Mr. Bill Gates and Allen. Microsoft's development relies on the research and development and operation of a team led by them, and it is not a strong capital to form a concentration of equity. It is hard to imagine what Microsoft would be like without Bill Gates and Allen? Therefore, for the steady development of Microsoft and for investors to get good returns, these two founders should be given enough equity."

“…”

At the end of the show, the famous financial host Rickinson made the final comment: "In any case, any amendment to the Securities Act requires the approval of Congress. This is not a simple process. As for the weak this time, White Lotus Company, according to the law, Mr. Bill Gates can indeed ignore it. But I personally hope that as the two major shareholders of Microsoft, it is best to communicate calmly and honestly, eliminate possible differences, and also make Microsoft develop healthier. Thank you, this is Wall Street every week, friends, see you next week!..."

The "Wall Street Every Week" program hosted by Rickinson is one of the highest-rated financial programs in the United States. Rickinson attracts a large number of viewers from professionals in the financial industry to ordinary people every week with his profound current political comments and clear and stable financial analysis.

By this time, the incident had been fermenting for three days. Microsoft had been silent about the outside world, undoubtedly using the most common and effective public relations method - cold treatment.

Bill Gates is indeed very well-educated, but this does not mean that he has no temper. Originally, no matter how other shares of Microsoft change, it would not affect his and Allen's control over Microsoft. Therefore, Bill Gates is watching with a neutral attitude in any move towards White Lotus.

In addition, if White Lotus applies for a meeting, although they still do not reach 5% of the equity, Bill Gates will definitely send an invitation for the sake of Microsoft's fourth largest shareholder. Taking out lunch time and chatting is not a big deal.

However, now...? You, Bai Lianhua, made a "acquisition mistake" in the capital market, inexplicably accused Bill Gates and Allen. She didn't even apply at all, but she yelled that the whole of North America already knew that she seemed to be quite domineering and flatly rejected their request. It was even difficult to justify, and it was easy to get darker and darker. You can even be shot while lying down? Since that's the case, then follow the rules!

According to convention, more than 5% of major shareholders enjoy certain privileges, including being able to meet and communicate easily with the company CEO. However, less than 5%, you can only make an appointment request, but you basically cannot get a response. The reason is quite simple. If a shareholder with only one share of Microsoft can meet Bill Gates casually, then Bill Gates will not be able to work at all. Of course, every shareholder has the right to express his opinions, but if you have anything, go to the shareholders' meeting to say it!

...

At Jiang Zhijian's home, Jing Jian was watching the end of the TV program while tasting red wine: "This wine is good."

Jiang Zhijian sat down and asked with a smile: "Why did you think of coming here today?"

Putting down the fruit tray on the coffee table, Alice also sat down beside her and looked at Jing Jian curiously.

Jing Jian raised his wine glass to Jiang Zhijie and smiled and said, "I'm in a bad mood and I'm having a ride. I happened to pass by, so I came in and sat down. There were several managers at home chattering, saying that this acquisition wasted too much money, so I was supervised. Haha."

"Then will it be inconvenient for you to come out in the future?" Jiang Zhijian asked anxiously.

"I'll be free to eat and wait until I die, and I will definitely be free to move." Jing Jian didn't seem to care, "I can't take a break from school next semester, and I really have to go to school. And the business here is not allowed to interfere for the time being. I just sign and get the money, and I don't have to do anything else. Fuck, what are their opinions? Don't you know that Microsoft will have a bright future in the future?"

Ignoring Jing Jian's last complaint, Jiang Zhijie smiled and comforted: "Isn't that good? Is it just right to go to college to pick up girls?"

Jing Jian smiled and waved his hand: "If you don't talk about these things, Brother Jiang, I just want to ask you, what are your plans in the future?"

Unable to figure out Jing Jian’s intentions for a while, Jiang Zhijie could only answer vaguely: "What are your plans? Take care of your own company and drink with you Xiaojian when you have time. You, Brother Jiang, have to support your family? Haha."

But Jing Jian seemed a little dissatisfied: "It's not me who said you, Brother Jiang's ambition? What's the trouble with your small company? Although I can't interfere anymore, there's still a way to arrange a few people. Brother Jiang, you can choose yourself. I'm now three companies, Seed Entertainment, you... Oh, and Alice, if you go to the past, you will be fully managed and add a 20% dividend. If you want to go to White Lotus, you will be responsible for China's purchase business and the treatment of the deputy general manager. Alice is the department manager. If you go to the water well, just like Jaton, they are all executive presidents. Anyway, there is a big stall over there, and you can all be responsible for one. Alas, I originally wanted to make some achievements at Microsoft, and our brothers can join forces to do a big fight, but now... Alas!"

Jiang Zhijie immediately understood that this was Jing Jian’s “arrangement before leaving”. This is not a time to be humble. Who knows when this young master can “come back out of the world”? It is the kingly way to seize the benefits in time.

That Seed Entertainment would definitely not consider it. Although it seems that the treatment is the most favorable, it doesn’t understand it at all. Secondly, it was bought by this young master on a whim. If he loses the subsequent financial support, it may not be able to last for a few years.

As for the White Lotus...? It seems to be booming, but Kent also seems to be in the state, and there are original teams. If you just go there, you will be alone and have a lonely force. To put it unbearable, it is difficult to embezzle a plane ticket.

And Jaton's well...? After a little thought, Jiang Zhijie immediately decided: "I'll go to the well."
