Rebirth of the Strongest Tycoon

When Xia Yu came out of San Francisco International Airport, he saw Peter Lynch and others outside the airport.

"Boss, welcome back!"

Peter Lynch said with a big smile.

"Peter, I've worked hard for you during my absence!"

Xia Yu looked kind, and looked at Peter Lynch full of admiration.

"It's not hard work, this is our job responsibility!"

Peter Lynch smiled and said modestly.

During this time, Peter Lynch did not disappoint Xia Yu, and some of the work he arranged did a good job. Although he was not in the United States, he would make transoceanic calls to Peter Lynch from time to time to learn about the company's current situation remotely.

After a few simple greetings, everyone got into the car, and the car drove in the same direction.

After simply returning home to put down things, Xia Yu came to the company non-stop to learn more about the company's achievements and operations.

On the phone before, Peter Lynch had told him some things, but how could he make it clear?

The results of the company during this period of time cannot be read in a while, especially Xia Yu asked Peter Lynch not to forget to list the process for him.

Unconsciously, the day passed by in a flash.

Xia Yu didn't read all the materials until he was lying on the bed after taking a bath at home at night, and had a very clear outline of the company's situation.

The passage of this period of time, to sum up, is actually just two words - acquisition!

Although Xia Yu was not in the company, Peter Lynch carried out Xia Yu's spending plan very well, exchanging green dollars for company stocks.

One of the biggest results is the successful acquisition of Abbott.

When Xia Yu took over the Rothschild family in London, the obstacles that appeared in the acquisition of Abbott's shares disappeared without a trace, and the next thing was naturally smooth sailing.

In the end, Polaris Capital acquired Abbott's wholly-owned private subsidiary for $3.23 billion.

Then there is the retail company, which acquired a 35% stake in Dayton Hudson Company and a 17.5% stake in Walmart, becoming the largest shareholder outside the Walton family, and will be the largest shareholder outside the Walton family. The club store was wholly acquired, costing a total of US$270 million.

Xia Yu also learned that Peter Lynch implemented his instructions. After acquiring the Price Club, he reorganized it into a Costco retail company. In addition to the Price Club, he established a good City supermarket department.

As for Costco Retail, the general manager is Jim Singanell, and the deputy general manager is Jeff Brotman.

The founder of the original Price's Club has left with the money.

In addition to the retail industry, Peter Lynch followed Xia Yu's instructions and invested in the high-tech field. He poured a total of 43.2 million US dollars and invested in more than 50 companies, with different shareholding ratios. .

Two of the brightest are companies based in Silicon Valley.

A "relational software company" may sound unfamiliar, but its founder is well-known in later generations, it is Ellison.

So this company is the predecessor of Oracle, and it definitely has a bright future.

Polaris Capital joined the second round of financing and, as the lead investor, took a 10 percent stake in the relational software company.

Another company is Yi Anxin, which was just established last year. The investment of Polaris Capital is an angel round investment. Peter Lynch is quite optimistic about the founding team and model of this company, and directly invested 1 million US dollars. Forty equity.

The company later grew to become the sixth largest software company in the world, and was finally acquired by Dell in 2015 for $67 billion.

It doesn't matter if you catch two super big fish at once, even if dozens of other companies fail, the future returns of these two companies alone are enough.

Of course, it would be great if other companies' investments could make money. Xia Yu also found that among the dozens of companies he invested in, some of them were well-known companies in later generations.

Overall, it was a smart move to hire Peter Lynch to run Polaris.

It's just that Xia Yu is still not satisfied. He thinks that his stake in the relational software company is too small, only 10%!

It's fine if you haven't found it, since you've found it, if you still don't care about it, you will definitely be struck by lightning.

In the future, the market value of Oracle Corporation once exceeded 200 billion US dollars, which means that if the relational software company does not raise financing now, even if it holds 1% of the equity, it will be worth 2 billion US dollars in the future!

Of course, it is unrealistic for a relational software company not to raise funds in the future. At least there is still a financing process to go public.

But anyway, taking one percent more equity now is a huge victory. How much money can you get better than this?

Fortunately, Xia Yu had seen strong winds and waves, and he had already been able to keep his mind calm in the face of huge wealth, and he still slept well that night.

The next morning, Xia Yu came to Polaris Capital and called Peter Lynch to his office.

Seeing Peter Lynch quietly waiting for him to issue orders, Xia Yu did not hesitate, opened the information he saw at night and pushed it to Peter Lynch, and said to him, "Peter, I have seen the company's investment results. , your vision is very good, and you have found a lot of potential stocks that I am also optimistic about."

"The equity of this Yi Anxin company is listed as not-for-sale. If we continue to raise funds in the future, we will do our best to follow the investment to ensure that the equity is not diluted. The more equity we can get, the better, but the premise is not to interfere with the company's operations. financial investment."

"Also in this relational software company, 10% of the equity is too small. It is too long to expect the next financing, and you will not be able to get much equity. Arrange for someone to acquire the equity of other shareholders and acquire as many as possible. , I will draw a line for you, at least increase the shareholding ratio to more than 30%!"

Peter Lynch nodded to show that he had listened, looked at the two companies circled on the material with a serious look, and said solemnly: "Boss, I remember, I will arrange it later."

...

After staying in San Francisco for two days, after Xia Yu dealt with all the affairs of Polaris Capital Company, he boarded the plane to the West Coast. With the transfer time, he arrived in Seattle one day later, and came to Seattle Computer Products Company.

Since Xia Yu set the tone for developing the operating system, the entire company has devoted resources to this project.

When Xia Yu was in charge before, the development speed was fast, and there were few bugs, but unfortunately he left in the middle, which caused the development speed to drop a lot.

Fortunately, the entire framework has been set, and the difficulty of perfecting it is relatively small.

Therefore, when Xia Yu came to the company again and learned about the situation of the SCP-DOS system, he thought that the product was bright enough, and it was time to take it to IBM!

After cleaning up a little, Xia Yu took Thyssen Patterson and a few subordinates to Boca Leighton with samples of the developed system.
