Chapter 466: Investing in Tesla Motors

When Musk heard Lin Feng's words, he instantly felt a sense of local tyranny and a strong aura of pretentiousness coming from the opposite side.

Originally, Musk wanted to refute Lin Feng a few words, but after opening his mouth, he found that he could not find a reason to refute Lin Feng. After all, Musk still knew about Lin Feng's situation and knew that the young man sitting opposite had earned tens of billions of dollars in just a few years.

Musk looked at Lin Feng with a sarcastic expression on his face and said in a not-so-fluent Chinese: "Mr. Lin, I know you are the richest man in China, very rich, and more rich than me."

"But I am very optimistic about the future of electric vehicles, so I will not give up Tesla's controlling stake."

"Mr. Lin, please see if you can change to another condition."

Lin Feng was not surprised when he heard Musk's words. He had long known that Musk had a strong desire to control Tesla, but it was precisely because of this that the company could continue to move forward under his leadership. More than ten years later, Musk also became the richest man in the world with this company.

"Mr. Musk, I think you have misunderstood."

"I do want 30% of the shares of Tesla, but what I want is not the shares in your hands."

Lin Feng's words made Musk a little confused and didn't understand what the sentence he said meant.

"As far as I know, this company was not founded by you, but by a few others."

Regarding Lin Feng's sudden talk about the history of Tesla, Musk showed a hint of embarrassment on his face. He was indeed not founded by him. To be honest, Musk also took control of the company from others.

Lin Feng looked at the change in Musk's expression, but he didn't care. After all, he was not here to reveal Musk's true feelings today.

"As far as I know, you have 60% of the shares in Tesla currently, and the remaining 40% are in the hands of the other two founders, or most of them are in the hands of the current Tesla company CEO."

When Musk heard Lin Feng's words, he also reacted, looked at Lin Feng, and asked in confusion: "What does Mr. Lin mean?"

Lin Feng smiled and said, "I don't think Mr. Musk doesn't want to have any voices threatening your rule in Tesla, right?"

"Although the founders of Tesla are not very strong in management, they are the founders of this company after all. If they are kept in this company, one day it will definitely pose a threat to your control."

Musk agrees with Lin Feng's words, just like he founded a payment company. Later, after the company was acquired by another giant technology company, Musk chose to leave the company and cashed out all the shares in his hands.

Because he knew that after the giant company acquired the payment company, it would gradually strengthen its control over the company. As for the founder, he would definitely not be able to stay in the company. So Musk was also a smart person. Before others could drive him out, he would cash out and leave the scene while the market was good.

"Mr. Lin, this is not good, right?" Musk looked at Lin Feng and asked in a low voice.

Lin Feng smiled at the corner of his mouth and said lightly: "I paid 30 million US dollars, I only have 30% of the shares. As for how much Mr. Musk gives the other party, I don't care."

Musk originally wanted to tease the cowhide with Lin Feng, but when he heard Lin Feng say 30 million US dollars, he shut up.

According to Lin Feng's 30 million US dollars, only 30% of the shares, that means that Tesla's current valuation has reached 100 million US dollars, which is doubled from the valuation of the 50 million US dollars he just said.

The most important thing is that Lin Feng said later that he only has 30% of his shares, and he doesn't care about the valuation.

The meaning of this sentence is that as long as Musk pays less than 30 million US dollars in buying 30% of the shares from other shareholders, the remaining money will be his.

Musk soon heard other meanings of Lin Feng's words, and his face suddenly showed an expression of ecstasy. Then he directly reached out his right hand and said with a smile: "Mr. Lin is so generous, I have to reluctantly agree."

Listening to Musk's words, Lin Feng also stretched out his right hand and held it tightly with him.

Zou Ming soon learned that Lin Feng spent $30 million to buy 30% of Tesla's shares.

"Boss, do you really have to spend $30 million to buy 30% of Tesla shares?"

In the living room of the villa, Lin Feng sat on the sofa and leisurely brewing tea, while Zou Ming was standing next to him, with an anxious look on his face.

"Is there any problem?"

Lin Feng did not stop making tea, but just looked up at Zou Ming, and then focused on making tea.

When Zou Ming saw Lin Feng's expression, he became even more anxious.

"Boss, I know you have a great investment and have never missed it, but you may not know this Tesla company."

"During the time I was in M ​​Country, I often gathered with the capitalists on Wall Street, and I also heard from them that Musk kept running to invest, but there was no capital on Wall Street that was willing to invest in him. Do you know why?"

Hearing Zou Ming's words, Lin Feng looked up at him and asked faintly: "Why?"

Zou Ming said: "I heard from those capitalists that Musk planned to make electric cars the world's number one and defeat gasoline cars. How could you say this?"

"At present, which one of the top ten automobile companies in the world is not a traditional automobile company? Now Musk actually says he wants to subvert this situation. Do you think he is not a lunatic?"

At this time, Lin Feng's tea had already been brewed. He picked up the teapot and poured two cups of tea, and then signaled Zou Ming, who was standing next to him, to sit down on the sofa opposite him.

"Do you think this Musk is a lunatic?"

Lin Feng put a cup of tea in front of Zou Ming, and then focused his attention on him, with no emotion in his tone, making Zou Ming unable to tell whether Lin Feng had listened to what he had just said.

At this time, Zou Ming gradually felt a little unusual about Lin Feng. He picked up the cup of tea and took a sip, then put down the tea cup, and looked up at Lin Feng.

"Isn't it?"

"Who does he think he is?"

"I still want to change the whole world by myself?"

Lin Feng did not rush to deny Zou Ming's words.

"Zou Ming, when you were studying, you should have heard a saying: How can a sparrow know the ambition of a swan?"

When Zou Ming heard Lin Feng's words, he was stunned. He never expected that Lin Feng's evaluation of Musk was so high.

From what Lin Feng said just now, Zou Ming knew that Lin Feng compared Musk to a swan, while others compared it to a sparrow, but what is the virtue of Musk's guy who can only brag like a swan?

Lin Feng also noticed the doubts and confusion revealed in Zou Ming's eyes.

"Do you think what I said is wrong?"

Zou Ming looked at Lin Feng and asked in confusion: "I'm just wondering what advantages does this Musk have? I'm so proud of him by your boss, and I also liken him to the swan in the sky."

"Anyway, I didn't see anything different about him. If I had to say something different, it was that my ideas were different from those of ordinary people."

"Zou Ming, you still have a lot of things to learn from and be learned."

"As for this matter, I will put 5% of the shares of Tesla at that time, and the remaining 25% of the shares will be placed under the trust fund. You can handle it at that time."

When Zou Ming heard Lin Feng say this, he knew that the matter could not be saved. In fact, he had never thought that he could convince Lin Feng this time.

Since he followed Lin Feng like this, he knew that Lin Feng was a very dictatorial person. Once he made a decision, even ten cows could not bring him back. Fortunately, Lin Feng's personality has never suffered any losses, and every investment is a big profit.

"Boss, there is another news I want to report to you. Old Roll of the Roll family has already taken a plane back to Europe this morning."

Just as Zou Ming was about to leave, he suddenly remembered that there was another thing he had come to Lin Feng this time, which was about Lao Luo's whereabouts.

After Lin Feng heard that Lao Luo was about to return to Europe, he let out a light sound from his nose, and then he didn't say anything, but instead held a teacup and tasted it alone.

When Zou Ming saw Lin Feng's appearance, he didn't say much and took his leave directly.

"Alice, what's the current situation in Europe? That guy Old Roll has set off to rush back today."

After drinking the tea in the teacup in his hand, Lin Feng took out his cell phone and called Alice in Europe. Lin Feng was still a little worried that after Old Roll would affect Alice's plan after he went back.

Alice on the other end of the phone heard that Old Roll had rushed back to Europe from Country M, and thought for a while, and replied with uncertainty in her tone: "Boss, our situation in Europe is getting better at the moment. Many of the real industries of the Roll family have been devastatingly hit by us. It seems that they can't support it for long."

"But I know that the biggest trump card of the Roll family is the friendship between their family and the noble royal families in various countries in Europe."

"If Old Roll really returns to Europe, it is very likely that he will go to those nobles for help, which may have a certain impact on our plan."
