Chapter 269: I know you, I just want to make money with you



   Roland smiled and nodded, agreeing with Bill Gates\' evaluation, "It seems that in William\'s eyes, I am a very stingy person."

   "Okay, since you\'re here, you can arrange my itinerary."

  Anyone who reads Roland\'s profile will find that he is really \'thrifty\'.

Over the years, all the clothes, pants and shoes are branded products produced by the company. The vehicles used for transportation are all commercial vehicles under the name of David. The passenger planes flying around are either borrowed from George Lucas or Boeing. Ask Steven Spielberg to borrow the Bombardier, or it is in the name of work, directly occupying the equipment of the Sixth National Congress, anyway, I don’t buy it myself.

You know, even a guy like John Travolta can afford airliners, and he has been repeatedly frustrated in order to get medical reform, so he has to launch a public opinion offensive, attacking the competition with the absurd statement that \'vaccines cause autism in children\' Oprah Winfrey, who owns a competitor\'s product, even owned a Bombardier worth more than 40 million when his net worth exceeded 100 million.

  The cash in Roland\'s hands is several times that of these guys, but even so, he still likes to rub cars around.

  This kind of behavior is simply unbelievable in the eyes of the rich.

  If it wasn\'t for spending 100 million yuan for love a year ago, they might really think that Roland would pick him to death.

  Of course, Roland knew this a long time ago, and the reason why he did this was not because he thought the airliner was expensive, nor was it to save money for the company\'s development, but purely to maintain the relationship between all parties.

Today I asked this family to borrow an unimportant but very expensive thing, and tomorrow I went to another house to pick up the other party’s favorite toy. It seems that he is like a Grandet, but in fact, what Roland wants is the complaints of those guys \'.

After a phone call, people will know what **** you want before your **** is poked up. Although this kind of memory is neutral and derogatory, it is much better than just asking for something. A relationship that doesn’t matter is better than a relationship that doesn’t matter. You usually use this kind of trivia to communicate more. If you encounter a major event, others won’t slap your head and think you are a stranger.

   And now?

  Before Roland called for a car, the richest man in the world had already run the wheel over his face.

After boarding the Chevrolet Trailblazer, Roland had a brief chat with the driver. After learning that the boss of this guy was the Oracle of Omaha, he confidently handed everything over to him. Listen to the life experience of the elders!

Just when Roland thought that this group of guys would take him directly to the hotel where he was staying, the vehicle ran along the Riverport Industrial Park to the central business district in the west, and drove along Leavenworth Street all the way, and saw South Elmwood Park. Turn right after the sign, and shortly after driving onto Dodge Street, North Elmwood Park with its lush trees came into view.

   After about three to five minutes, a pair of invisible big hands finally lifted the emerald green veil.

  The hidden villas appeared in front of Roland.

   "Where is this?"

   Before Roland could look at it curiously, the vehicle carrying him had already stopped.

  Jumped out of the car and looked around suspiciously. Everything around him made Roland wonder if he had entered a certain resort.

Oncoming is the half-dome roof covered with brown tiles. There are two chimneys on the left and one on the right, like the two ears of the house. Looking down, the three windows from large to small give people a sense of It feels like climbing the steps, but it is more like a funny face with big eyes and small eyes. Continue down, the yellow main wall under the eaves is mixed with colored bricks, just like a roadside house in the industrial age, just built When it was young, the color was consistent and extremely bright, but as the age grew, the traces of the years also clung to it.

   Such a house is equipped with neatly trimmed lawns and trees, and it looks like a holiday villa that reminds the wealthy class of the past.

   Once you live here, you can tell your children and grandchildren about the hardships when you started your business. If you take your old friends to recuperate together, you will miss the glorious years of those years. If the other party is still of the opposite sex...

  That will definitely develop Twilight Love.

   Ah no!

  It is the best opportunity to recall the passing youth!

  ‘Put me here? \'

  \'Are you making a mistake! \'

  ‘I don’t want to eat something sweet and bitter…’

Just when he wanted to verify the status quo with the driver of the prophet and the bodyguard of the richest man, the owner of the house, who was peeking out because of the outside movement, was like a magnet, attracting Roland\'s attention. After seeing the blond woman, Roland So he swallowed back the doubts that came to his lips, and instead burst into a friendly smile, he took the lead in nodding to the other party and saying hello.

   "Mrs. Monks, hello."

  The polite and kind words made the eyes of the woman in the black dress brighten. She took the initiative to step out of the door, stretched out her right hand, and shook hands with Roland, "Oh~ Roland~ I didn\'t expect you to come so soon?"

   "Huh? Where\'s Kate? She didn\'t come with you?"

   "Wow, as William said, you are much more handsome in reality than on the screen!"

\'that\'s amazing! \'

  Although the woman said a total of three sentences and asked two questions, Roland\'s first reaction in his heart was that the future wife of the stock **** had a really good vision! One can tell at a glance that he in the movie is not as handsome as he is in reality!

That\'s right, this old woman whom Roland calls Monks is Warren Buffett\'s first wife, Susan Buffett, after her husband dated Katherine Graham, the "First Lady of American Newspapers". , in order to take care of his life, so as to find him a nanny, or to replace her...lover?

"Kate has some work to deal with, so I came alone." Although it is only a lover for the time being, Roland, who knows that the other party has **** Baleuth, will not neglect it, but smiles: "Of course." , This is also related to her dislike of such serious business gatherings, she thinks it\'s really boring for us a group of men to get together and talk about numbers."

   "Really?" Hearing this, Monks raised his eyebrows and said regretfully, "Then she might have made a mistake."

   "The thing Warren dislikes the most is talking about numbers there. Every year at the annual meeting, he prepares a bunch of entertainment programs. It\'s the same now. He\'s warming up for tomorrow\'s appearance..."

Even though it was the first time they met, the words between the two sides were not separate. After a few simple exchanges, Monks led the way and brought Roland into the house. The decoration is not luxurious, but the house is retro and warm. Roland wandered around in a circle before going upstairs. When the nanny and lover who had been with Baleut for decades pushed open the door of the entertainment room, Roland was a little surprised by the seriousness that came to his face.

  ‘This is obviously a recreation room! How do you make it look like a conference room? \'

   Taking a closer look, there are four people in the room, sitting around the table.

  The low pressure permeating the air comes from them.

  Wearing glasses, Buffett and Gates sat face to face, and Roland did not know the two people next to them.

Of course, Roland didn\'t guess their identities, because after he glanced twice, his eyes were attracted by the playing cards in front of these people. Not only that, he also saw the paper and Pen.

  \'Playing cards is so serious? \'

  ‘As expected, it’s a party for the elderly...’

   Just when Roland was thinking to himself that the shareholder meeting in the next few days might be boring, the four people who heard the door opening raised their heads almost at the same time, and glanced at the door where he was.

   "Roland is here?"

   "Sit by yourself, our round will be over soon."

After discovering that the person who came was Roland Allen, the two strange guys nodded with a smile, and then frowned and joined the battle. Buffett added an additional action on the basis of the two, raising his hand with a The pen pointed to the sofa chair beside him, signaling Roland to be casual. Only Gates, who had dealt with him before, said hello, but after he finished speaking, he withdrew his mind and looked at the sign in front of Buffett with his mouth pursed. Not sure what to count there.

   \'Well...it\'s really a friendly first meeting...\'

Before coming to Omaha, Roland had envisioned countless scenes of meeting Buffett in his mind, including meeting at the venue, introducing Gates, meeting in advance, and even communicating and interacting, but no matter what he thought, he never imagined The first meeting turned out to be like this, the four of them huddled there playing cards and ignoring others?

   Those who know know that you are gambling, but those who don’t know think you are doing tens of billions of acquisitions!

Of course, after seeing the frowns of the four of them, Roland also suspected that Buffett deliberately made it for himself. The reason is very simple, that is, the old man and the wolf king did not have a good relationship, but he hooked up with the wolf king. , but after thinking about it, he felt that he was a little whimsical. If it was really a show of face, then don\'t call him over, isn\'t it over?

   In this way, Roland did not take the cold response into his heart.

   But just as he followed Gates\'s wishes, he moved a chair and moved closer to him, wanting to peek at the situation on the scene and analyze which old man would win, but he only glanced twice, and he put away his thoughts.

  WDNMD!

   This group of people are actually playing bridge here!

   No wonder they ignore people!

Bridge is a two-to-two four-player game, which originated in the United Kingdom. After drawing out the big and small kings of a poker card, each person will be issued 13 cards. After straightening out the suits, you can start bidding. The purpose of bidding is, It is to determine which suit is the trump card when playing cards at the end, that is, directly kill the cards of other suits, and then determine which side is the banker, and determine the points that the banker needs to win, and finally start playing.

   Sounds easy?

   But Roland won\'t.

  Bridge is different from other cards. Even if you understand the rules, you can\'t play right away. Getting started and mastering them are two different things. Roland took the course "Bridge Art and Life" in his college in his previous life, and then...

  He stopped playing poker in his previous life.

  Because he hates the feeling of being read into his mind.

Under his watchful eyes, the four-player game progressed very slowly. After sitting for about ten minutes, they began to calculate the IMP (the name of the bridge scoring method). When the results came out, the two old men who lost directly took off glasses, and rubbed his eyes with his hands.

"David, when you and Charlie were in New York, were you playing cards every day?" Buffett picked up the Coke on the table, and with a bang, tore off the tab. After taking a few sips, he looked helplessly. To Gates, complained: "Or, William, you spent the whole last year staring at your Internet Explorer at home? No time to practice at all?"

   "Can we lose with this kind of card? It\'s better for me to sit on the bank and show your cards!"

   Hearing the words of a resentful woman, Gates shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, and said with a smile: "Oh, Warren, you can\'t blame me!"

   "I count against the two of them alone, isn\'t it normal to lose?"

   "How is this normal! You let me do it, I can beat them both by myself!"

  Buffett stared at Gates with a beard blowing his beard, as if he really cared about winning or losing that one.

   Gates, who was dissed by the other party, just shook his head with a wry smile, and the winning pair showed the demeanor of the winners. The guy in the white shirt comforted: "Playing cards, there are winners and losers..."

The old man with only a few strands of hair left on his head, his scalp as smooth as a light bulb, and his lenses as thick as the bottom of a wine bottle also agreed: "Yes, yes, David is right, there is a winner and a loser! There is no such thing as a game. You are allowed to win, but we are not allowed to win!"

  Although it was consolation, the faces of these guys were full of complacency.

  It seems that it is very interesting for Buffett to sit here and watch how he loses.

  If you had to describe the scene, it would be that a successful cat is like a tiger, and a parrot with a bad feather is not as good as a chicken.

   Just when Roland thought that the sulking old man would start another round, he raised his head and killed Coke, and immediately flipped the table.

   "Don\'t play anymore, it\'s boring, William is too good!"

   After putting the empty Coke can on the table, the old man suddenly shifted his gaze to Roland.

Following his movements, Roland, who had been silent since he entered, met his eyes in surprise, and after seeing the old man\'s movements, the two old men, who were excited because they won the game, also turned their heads. , Gates next to Roland is no exception.

   "Roland Allen?" Buffett stood up with a smile like a chameleon, and first extended his right hand to Roland, "The 13th largest shareholder of Berkshire Hathaway? We finally met..."

"It was David who came last year. He told me that you were filming, and you couldn\'t spare time to leave. So after I learned that you were coming this year, I prepared questions. I wanted to ask you in person whether filming is true Is it more important than the general meeting of shareholders? As a result, the question was prepared, but I didn\'t expect it to be your turn to wait for me this year, so the answer is not important, and we are even."

  The vengeful words made Roland laugh, and he got up and shook hands.

  If this guy hadn’t told Gates that Buffett was a narrow-minded person when he met Gates at the beginning of the year, he would definitely be stunned now, “Warren, I… can I call you that?”

   "Of course." Buffett nodded affirmatively.

  Since he could shout, Roland continued, "This is a misunderstanding..."

   "I told Ronald that when I wanted to meet you, I really just wanted to meet you..."

"That\'s right! I also think that when the company\'s performance is so good, how can there be shareholders talking bad about me in front of Carl!" Buffett made a beeping look while speaking, pointing at the The old man with a shiny head said: "Charlie can testify that when I learned that at the Carl and Ronald party, one of our shareholders expressed regret for my absence, I shouted What? I even doubted that day Isn\'t it April Fool\'s Day!"

"And after I learned that the shareholder turned out to be Steven\'s student, I was even more puzzled. The "Washington Post" and Steven belonged to the same family. Under such circumstances, how could this shareholder still want to pass Carl contact me?"

   "Why don\'t you just ask Steven to call Catherine?"

  Under Buffett\'s tangled interpretation, the accident two years ago was fully interpreted.

  Because the other three are acquaintances who know everything, so after Buffett showed Roland his initial depression unabashedly like a cross talk, gleeful laughter filled the hut.

   And Roland...

  Under Buffett\'s "serious" stare, he didn\'t hold back, pursed his lips and nodded, smiling on his face.

  Roland and Buffett have no conflict.

   At the beginning, I bought Berkshire Hathaway\'s stock, just to hold this golden thigh.

  However, in the process of hugging the legs, a little accident happened.

After "The Shawshank Redemption" became popular, Perelman invited Roland to New York as a guest, and wanted to introduce some friends to Roland. Erman\'s invitation list, but the problem is that Buffett was absent because of the wolf king\'s attendance, and after that, Roland\'s words of regret to the wolf king at the banquet reached his ears again, so Roland He was accidentally involved in the entanglement and suspicion between the two.

In Buffett\'s eyes, it is Berkshire Hathaway\'s shareholders who say in front of their old rival Carl Icahn that they have not received an invitation to the shareholders\' meeting. This is not a complaint from diss The old man couldn\'t accept it at all, so he sent an invitation letter to Roland in the second year, but the problem was that after he wrote the invitation letter himself, Roland didn\'t come for some reason. , Undoubtedly, it was a face-to-face slap!

  In 1996, you complained in front of my opponent that you didn\'t receive the invitation letter, but you sent it in 1997, but you didn\'t come?

  You are playing with me!

  If it weren\'t for his own people inside and out, he would have sent people to buy back the shares in Roland\'s hands long ago!

And this year, after learning that Gates would call Roland here, the old man really did what Roland imagined at first, and wanted to diss him in person, but... who knew that everyone was delayed on the matter of playing cards Woolen cloth?

  If he wins, he may still say a few words out of joy.

   But the problem is losing. In this case, diss means venting anger.

  It is unreasonable both emotionally and rationally.

Because of this, after taking the initiative to bring this up and the scene reappeared, they didn\'t have any conflicts and didn\'t struggle with it anymore. Not only that, the old man also took the initiative to introduce the two people who played bridge with him to Roland. .

   "Richard Munger, the vice chairman of Berkshire Hathaway, my good friend."

   "David Gottesman, a partner of the First Manhattan Fund, is also the fourth largest shareholder of Berkshire Hathaway."

   "Hello, hello..." Roland smiled and shook hands with them.

   And they responded kindly.

"Your behavior really confused Warren." Richard Munger said while shaking hands: "Warren felt that he was low-key enough to stay in Omaha, but he didn\'t expect to mess with Carl." them."

"He also called me at the time and asked me to check if the company under my name had been attacked." David Gottesman also responded: "Warren thought your complaint was just a smoke bomb released by Carl. , What Karl really wants to do is to stir up the conflict between them again through you, and then attack the company under the name of Berkshire Hathaway."

  No way, the name of the Wolf King is too great.

  Although Buffett is not afraid of him, he doesn\'t want to provoke him either.

  Of course, under the witness of time, everyone also knows that everything at the beginning was a misunderstanding.

  Since it was a misunderstanding, then we are still friends.

   Didn\'t get too entangled in this old-fashioned shit. After getting to know each other, as Buffett, who didn\'t want to play bridge, left, the game with no one to fill the seat ended.

  Glanced at the time and found that it was still early for dinner, so everyone chatted again.

  The subject of the topic is Roland, who made Buffett a false alarm.

   "I heard that after you made your first money, you bought Berkshire Hathaway stock?" David Gottesman asked.

"Why did you choose Berkshire Hathaway? If I remember correctly, your uncle David seemed to say last year that when you bought stocks, you were only eleven or twelve years old? You dared to bet all your wealth on On us?" Richard Munger asked.

   "And I see what you mean, buy Berkshire Hathaway stock just to meet me?" Warren Buffett asked.

When the three old men hugged their hands, with playful smiles on their faces, and stared at Roland curiously, a strange feeling rushed into his heart instantly. If he had to describe it, the behavior of the three old men gave him the feeling: identity confirmation - Confirmation of whereabouts - Arrival across provinces - Open the door to check the water meter - Squat down against the wall with your hands on your head.

  The smooth questioning and the tacit cooperation gave people a feeling of checking the household registration.

but-

   Check the account, check the account.

  Roland has hugged his thigh for so many years, and has never shown timidity when exposing his old background.

   Not only that, but every time he tells the truth!

   "Because I think Berkshire Hathaway\'s stock still has a lot of room to rise..."

  What?

   Chi Guoguo\'s answer stunned the three old men who together were nearly 200 years old.

  This, this, this... this kid is too honest, right?

   Before they could react, Roland looked at Buffett again and continued: "I want to see you, mainly because I want to have a good relationship with you, and then follow you to make more money..."

  ? ? ?

  As soon as these words came out, the three old men were shocked!

   As a guy with one foot in the coffin, they have met countless investors in their life, but no one has ever expressed as sincerely as Roland, I know you, and I hope you can bring me money!

  Even if those guys are all here for profit, they will find a high-sounding reason to cover it up anyway!

   And what about Roland...

  You are obviously an actor!

  But why don\'t you even bother to act!

   Know me, just want to make money with me?

this…

  Looking at the solemn Roland, the three old men looked at each other.

And just as they stared at each other and didn\'t know how to respond for a while, Bill Gates, who was sitting next to Roland, suddenly laughed. Such a situation also attracted the eyes of the three old men .

   "Roland, why are you here again?"

  After asking this sentence, he turned to look at the three of them again, and said with a smile:

   “When I first met him, Steve was there, and Steve asked him why he invested in Apple.”

   "You know how this guy replied to Steve in front of me, Paul, and Steven?"

"He said: \'I like Pixar, so I invest in Apple. If I become a major shareholder of Apple and help you wipe out your opponents in the company, then your mood will surpass, and when you are happy, Pixar will be able to produce more. classic animation\'."

   "After I heard this words, I was completely dumbfounded!"

   "Just like you are now!"

  When Bill Gates laughed and told Roland what they had talked about before the dinner when they met Roland for the first time, the corners of the mouths of the three old men twitched directly...

  Damn!

  Are young people these days so ruthless?

  Is this how investment works?

   They have been playing in the circle for almost fifty years, and they have never seen such a wild way of throwing money!

Note: ① Oprah’s **** things, and her public support of “vaccines cause autism in children” on the show were all regarded as negative examples, and they were written in the English test papers of the People’s Education Edition. I watched them when I was in school. However, my younger brother still had it in the test papers when he was in school. I don’t know why many authors worship her. Isn’t this kind of anti-intellectual remarks deliberately made for self-interest, isn’t it disgusting? ②Bill Gates and Warren Buffett have the habit of playing bridge at home every year before the shareholders\' meeting has lasted for 30 years. ③The relationship between Spielberg and the Washington Post written in the article is real, and the Warren Buffett\'s nobleman "First Lady of American Newspapers" Catherine Graham, which was written before, does not want to be with Spielberg. Too familiar, Catherine is also Jewish, and his father and Spielberg\'s father are friends. The reason why the "Washington Post" movie fell into Spielberg\'s hands is because the Graham family believes that Spielberg Berg will take a good picture of his own mother. Not only that, but in that movie, Hanks’ character, Ben Bradley, is also Spielberg’s neighbor. When they bought a house in Long Island, New York, they bought it together. of. That’s why the article writes that Buffett will be surprised when he learns that Roland complained to Carl Icahn, and Buffett didn’t deliberately arrange to see Roland, because if he followed Spielberg’s route, the network here has already been established. Therefore, it is very necessary to continue to praise the old man\'s favorability with black people. This student\'s status is so easy to use.
