"Why Apple?"
Gates asked almost reflexively.
Do you still look down on your own stock?
"Of course you can if you want," Zhang Bin said with a shrug.
He was sure that Gates would not give him his stock.
It's a good time to buy Apple's stock.
It will double several times soon.
This is a good opportunity.
He knew that Microsoft held hundreds of millions of dollars in Apple stock and had deep technical cooperation with them.
Gates pondered for a long time, "Are you sure that all the loopholes in your hands have been tested?"
"If I wasn't sure, would I say anything casually?
If one of them is fake, I'll return half of the money.
If I find one, I'll return half of it," Zhang Bin said confidently.
Gates stood up, paced around the office, and then made a phone call.
After a while, the company's lawyer walked in.
Taking the contract, Gates placed it directly in front of Zhang Bin.
"Twenty million in cash, thirty million in stock, from Apple."
Zhang Bin took a look and found that the contract was actually only two or three pages, very simple.
Zhang Bin quickly signed his name, printed his fingerprints, and then handed Gates the paper with holes that he had prepared long ago.
It was written in Chinese, but he believed that this was not a problem.
Gates went out for a while and came back soon.
It seemed that he had sent someone to inspect it, while Zhang Bin put the contract away.
It was almost noon, and the conversation with Gates unknowingly lasted more than two hours.
"If you don't mind, how about having lunch at the company?"
Gates invited with a smile.
"Of course," Zhang Bin replied.
Being able to have a meal with the world's richest man was something that he never dared to imagine in his previous life.
As soon as the two of them went out, a person walked towards them.
"Hi, Steve," Gates greeted.
The person who came was none other than Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer.
Steve glanced at Zhang Bin and said, "You want to go out."
"I'm about to accompany the guests to dinner," Gates said.
"Are you okay?"
"Qiao just called and wanted to meet you.
I'll come back to you later."
Steve said a friendly hello to Zhang Bin, then turned and left.
Just as Steve left, Zhang Bin received a call from Harlan.
On the phone, Harlan said that the money had arrived and asked Zhang Bin if he had gone to get the contract.
Of course, if Zhang Bin went to get the contract, the housekeeper would definitely contact him.
If he didn't contact him, it meant he didn't get it.
He only made this call to inquire.
Zhang Bin said that he was in Washington now and would have to wait two days to get it, and thanked Harlan for his financial support.
"You're in Washington.
It's a good time.
Come to my house for lunch."

When Harlan heard that Zhang Bin was in Washington, he immediately invited him warmly.
"Mr.
Gates and I are going to have lunch, maybe I have to apologize."
Zhang Bin didn't really want to attend the family dinner.
As for mentioning Gates, he just said it casually and didn't mean to express anything.
"Oh, is it Bill?
Give him the phone," Harlan said unexpectedly.
Zhang Bin was stunned for a moment and handed the phone to Bill Gates.
"Mr.
Harlan asked you to answer the call," Zhang Bin said.
"Hi, Harlan."
Bill seemed very happy to hear that it was Harlan, and there was a rare hint of respect in his tone.
After a few words, Gates hung up the phone and glanced at Zhang Bin in surprise, "Do you know Mr.
Harlan?"
"I own 20% of Hare's shares," Zhang Bin said, "You know him."
Gates smiled and said, "Of course."
However, Gates did not explain, which made Zhang Bin feel a little itchy.
Gates seemed to have a good relationship with Mr.
Harlan.
"Let's go, Mr.
Harlan's luncheon is rare," Gates said and went downstairs with Zhang Bin.
Gates drove, Zhang Bin and the others took a car and headed to the Gates family's house in the suburbs of Washington state.
"Where is this?"
Zhang Bin looked at a villa outside.
There seemed to be no Mr.
Harlan in the yard.
"My home."
Gates smiled and got out of the car.
Zhang Bin heard that it was Bill Gates' home and quickly got out of the car.
An older-looking woman came out with three children, two boys and one girl.
"Hey, Dad."
The two older boys hugged Gates respectively.
Then Gates picked up his little daughter Adele and kissed her, and finally kissed his wife.
Zhang Bin knew that this should be Gates' wife Melinda and his three children.
After meeting with his family, Gates introduced Zhang Bin, and then Melinda drove away with her three children, while Gates took Zhang Bin and the three of them to Mr.
Harlan's home in Washington.
In the car, Gates talked about his wife's relationship with Harlan.
The first meeting between Gates and Melinda was a beautiful encounter.
After Melinda graduated from college, she worked as an intern at ib.
Later, the company's supervisor learned that she was going to Microsoft for an interview and told her that there was a bigger stage and space there and you could try it.
So Melinda came to Microsoft and soon became a marketing manager when she was 22 years old.
But there are people made of special materials everywhere.
They are all so smart and talented.
This puts a lot of pressure on Melinda.
She feels that these people are mean and mean, even the boss is like this, so She is leaving Microsoft.

Changes always come unexpectedly.
At this time, the company sent her to New York on a business trip, and she unexpectedly sat down with Bill Gates.
"I thought she was very beautiful at the time.
I think it was her beauty that attracted me," Gates said with a smile.
When Gates formally pursued Melinda, Melinda was just a marketing manager at Microsoft, while Gates was the company's chairman and CEO.
There was a huge gap in positions, plus a bad impression of the company. , Melinda rejected Gates without hesitation.
Speaking of this, Gates laughed and said: "You have to know, it was really difficult for her to handle it at the time and she rejected me many times."
Later, Melinda began to accept Gates because of Mr.
Harlan.
Mr.
Harlan and Melinda's father Ray Frank were very good friends.
During a visit together, Harlan learned about this.
Mr.
Harlan was not familiar with Gates at the time, but he admired Gates very much, so he persuaded Melinda to try to accept and understand each other.
Later, Melinda was moved by Gates' sincerity and finally decided to agree to date him.
In 1994, the two got married on Hawaii Island.
At that time, Gates booked the entire island, including flights and all hotels.
"One question, did you discover all these vulnerabilities yourself?"
Gates suddenly asked after finishing his story.
"I don't like computers," Zhang Bin said with a smile, saying that he didn't do it himself.
Gates nodded.
It seemed that there was a powerful person behind this person.
Gates was already thinking about whether he should inquire about it sometime and recruit him to work for him.
