Brother Ke left the next day, and Kirilenko's guests also left.
Kirilenko and Feng Yu are fishing in a pavilion by the man-made lake in Kirilenko's mansion. However, the two of them had limited skills. After a long time, they did not manage to catch a single fish. Instead, they used up a lot of bait.
"Feng, I heard you want to acquire AMD. It's been so long. Why haven't you acquired it?" Kirilenko asked.
"There's no hurry. That company's value will drop in a year or two, and I will see if I should acquire AMD or invest in Intel."
In Feng Yu's previous life, AMD could compete with Intel but was overtaken by Intel quickly. This shows Intel's technologies are much more advanced than AMD. Feng Yu also doesn't know if he can overtake Intel after taking over AMD. Unless Kirilenko increases his R&D investments, but that might not be worth it.
Feng Yu can afford to wait, and Nvidia is not willing to sell to him now. He can make use of Nvidia to take over AMD, and it might be easier for him to acquire AMD.
"Feng, I remember you mentioned that Microsoft does not touch hardware is because they are too powerful in the software industry. Once they touch hardware, they will be boycotted by all the hardware manufacturers. There is a high chance that Microsoft will collapse. Even if Microsoft succeeds, it will be forced to split up. Why do you want to do it? Aren't you afraid of being boycotted? "Kirilenko asked curiously.
"That's why all my companies are separate and not the same brand. That's why there will not be any breakup of monopolies. Also, the companies I acquired are the weaker ones in the industry, and no one will think I am monopolizing the industry. But in the future, I want one person to go against all the companies in the industry. "
Kirilenko is stunned by Feng Yu's ambition. One person to go against all the companies in the industry? Is this possible?
"Feng, those companies, be it Microsoft in software or Intel in hardware, are all giants. Their market value is around 500 billion USD."
Although Feng Yu was rich, his wealth was not at the level where he could rival a country. Feng Yu's net worth is not even comparable to one company, and he wants to go against all the companies?
"Ten years ago, Microsoft is also a small company. Ten years ago, I didn't have much money either. Microsoft can use ten years to become the world's most valuable company, and I can use ten years to become the world's second richest man. My assets will increase by tens of thousands of times. Then why can't I fulfill this dream in another ten years? "
"If ten years isn't enough, then twenty years, thirty years. Anyway, I'm still young, right? Warren Buffett and Soros are already decades old, and they are still struggling. I am only in my twenties, and if my goal is to be the world's richest man, then I will have nothing to pursue in life when I am thirty. My future will be boring. "
In Kirilenko's opinion, there was nothing wrong with Feng Yu's bold words. He absolutely believed that a thirty-year-old Feng Yu would become the richest man in the world.
Bill Gates's investments were too singular, and the growth of his assets could not catch up with Feng Yu's. Furthermore, Feng Yu's wealth is still rising, and as Microsoft share prices fall, Bill Gates's wealth is evaporating every day.
But to Kirilenko, Feng Yu's dream is too ambitious.
If Feng Yu wants to become a giant company, he will need to control a few companies worth at least 500 billion USD. Which company can reach this level?
Lenovo Group might be able to do it, but it is not up to Feng Yu. Tai Hua Supermarket Group might also be able to become like Wal-Mart. But the shares are scattered, and Feng Yu does not have the final say.
Is it possible for other companies to do it? Internet companies might be able to grow rapidly, but if the bubble burst, it would be too fast.
In the US, several internet companies had been delisted this year, and there were even more that had gone bankrupt. This number is still increasing, and there might be more than 100 companies in the future.
Where did Feng Yu get the confidence to do what he said?
Feng Yu's confidence is because he knows the direction of these technologies. Feng Yu's confidence is because he knows Amazon and the companies he invested in in China will be worth at least 100 billion USD in the future.
Feng Yu might be able to achieve what others cannot. He will feel uncomfortable if he doesn't try. Furthermore, so what if he fails? Even if half of his companies go bankrupt, Feng Yu will still be the World's Richest Man.
Even if he is not the World's Richest Man, he can still stand at the top of the world. He does not lack the courage and confidence to start all over again.
After seeing Feng Yu's ambitious goals, Kirilenko felt his dreams had been too small all this while. He wants to be the World's Richest Man, and he had achieved it.
He also wants to step on Bill Gates and the rest and become the World's Richest Man, second only to Feng Yu. But he still has not achieved this goal.
But Feng Yu told him that this goal is not far away. He might reach it in five to six years, or maybe ten years.
Kirilenko heard from Feng Yu that if he does not have a big goal, his future will be boring. Kirilenko couldn't help but wonder if he should also set a grand goal. Even if he couldn't achieve it, he had to walk towards that goal step by step.
For example, buying the world's most famous winery? That Lafite Winery belongs to Europe's oldest family, the Rothschild Family.
Or he can set up a wine brand and let it become the world's most famous wine brand.
Or he can follow Feng Yu to achieve his dream and stand at the top of the world?
There was confusion in Kirilenko's eyes.
Feng Yu's dream cannot be achieved by Feng Yu alone. Kirilenko needs like-minded people to help him achieve his dream.
For example, Zong Qingxian, Liu Chuanzhi, Masao Kameda, Fu Guangzheng.
Kirilenko was also a very suitable candidate. Feng Yu did not persuade Kirilenko to help him, but he believes that Kirilenko will make a decision after listening to him.
Feng Yu hopes that Kirilenko can help him. This way, things will be easier for him.
After thinking for a while, Kirilenko suddenly pulled the fishing rod and reeled in the line. "Hahaha … I finally caught a fish. Let's eat it tonight."
After throwing the fish into the bucket, Kirilenko looked at Feng Yu and asked. "Feng, you have a big dream. Can you bring me along?"
Feng Yu smiled. "Of course. We are brothers, right?"
Feng Yu's fish also took the bait.
