Chapter 347: "Future" completed

Now William Chen's funds, including Tianshu Fund and the Freedom Fund of his Meta Investment Company, hold more than 10% of Apple's shares.

Apple's stock has also performed very well during this period. When William Chen invested in Apple's stock, its total market value was about 130 billion US dollars. By the end of February, Apple's latest market value had exceeded 2,500. One hundred million U.S. dollars.

After initially Tianshu Fund and Chen William Meta Investment Company had their own funds to buy Apple stock with a total of 15 billion US dollars, the Caitlin Foundation invested US$ 1 billion in gold futures and used it to various "charitable" projects. After the donation, more than half of the remaining more than six billion US dollars also bought Apple shares.

Therefore, the Apple stock held by William Chen in various ways has exceeded 13%...

The Apple shares he holds are the largest holding company in fact, but even so, when he negotiated with Apple's CEO Cook, hoping that Siri could get more promotion resources from Apple, he was still rejected by the other party. .

Yes, Steve Jobs's condition has deteriorated and he has stepped down as Apple's CEO, and Tim Cook has taken over as CEO.

Although Cook is different from Jobs, he does not take Siri's potential very seriously - this is from when William Chen took over as CEO of Apple in his previous life, and in later generations of iPhones, Siri did not have much. The improvement, almost forgotten by Apple, can be seen - but even Cook has not agreed to provide more promotion resources for Siri.

The reason is that Apple can't benefit from Siri's development at all, so there is no incentive to help Siri. However, Tim Cook knew that Jobs was very optimistic about Siri's project at that time, so he proposed that Apple could take a stake in Siri.

In Chen William's view, Apple's investment in Siri is not unacceptable, but the premise is that the price of Siri can be sufficiently reflected. But at this time, Siri still only exists in the form of an APP, and has not proven its potential in a wider range, so even if Apple is allowed to take a stake, now is not the best time.

It is against this background that Siri started to develop and develop smart speaker products.

In the Blom Forth shipyard in Hamburg, Germany, an extremely powerful superyacht with a bit of a World War I battleship style and a sense of technology in details is ready.

It has been nearly a year since William Chen took over the order for this super yacht. The super yacht, which was originally ordered by the Prince of Brunei and was later taken over by William Chen, was named "Future" and was finally completed. be delivered.
