Back To 1995

   Chapter 90 Envelopes

   Looking at the information about Double-click Company and Song Yang, Ella Cherry sneered. She actually didn't pay much attention to Double-click Company.

  Although Double Click Company is known as the largest Internet advertising company in America, it is not worth mentioning compared to Microsoft, which has an annual revenue of $13 billion.

Ella Cherry felt that Song Yang, as well as those Asians, Jews, Asan and the like who were active in Silicon Valley, might have forgotten about the last time Amelica split up the Telephone and Telegraph Group ten years ago. Forget America, it was founded by the Anglo-Saxons!

After marking Song Yang and Double-click Company's information, Ella put Song Yang's information aside. She thought that she was looking for a time to teach Song Yang and Double-click Company in his hands a lesson. Be a giant or not.

"According to local media in Houston, Hotmail mailbox has reached an agreement with overseas partners. Hotmail mailbox will sign a brand agency agreement with France Telecom, Telefonica, Siemens in Germany and other companies in some regions, which marks the development speed of Hotmail mailbox. , will be further accelerated!"

   As the focus of the industry, the Hotmail mailbox is subject to every move. Just after reaching an agreement with France Telecom and other companies, the media quickly began to report it.

   Hearing that Hotmail mailboxes are going to enter French, German and other regions, Yahoo, Netscape and other companies that have just started to develop mailbox products are all shocked. I didn’t expect Hotmail mailboxes to move so quickly.

   Even in order to quickly occupy the overseas market, he can even give up the management rights. This is the first time that Silicon Valley has seen Song Yang's character.

   For the companies that have obtained Hotmail's overseas agency rights, the feelings are different. For those telecom giants, the cooperation with Hotmail mailbox this time is just a test of water in the Internet industry.

   But for Lao Maozi's Yandex and Yinghaiwei and other companies, it was a pleasant surprise.

  Especially on Yandex's side, when they received a call from Irene, the other party even doubted whether they had encountered a liar.

   Now Yandex, including the founder Arkadi Voroz, has only five people, huddled in a dilapidated house, and is developing the first Internet search engine in the history of Lao Maozi.

   "You mean that Hotmail should be licensed to Yeadex for free?" Woroz asked suspiciously.

Irene heard the Russian translation by the phone, and gave Voroz a sure answer, "Yeadex will get the management rights of Hotmail mailboxes in Eastern Europe, including all rights to change the name of Hotmail mailboxes, patent use rights, and source codes. !"

   "Not only the Hotmail mailbox, but our Boss, we will also hand over the Eastern European agency rights of DoubleClick to Yeadex. Yeadex will become the first company in Eastern Europe to introduce digital advertising."

   "Even," Erin told Woroz through an interpreter, "Yeadex can also get $300,000 in venture capital!"

  Woroz, who was holding the phone, couldn't help but breathe a little too fast. Although he couldn't believe it, he felt that the other side wouldn't use an ocean-going phone to deceive him, this endless clanging broken company.

   However, Voloz, who has experienced the great changes of the old man, also knows that the opposite party will not do it for no reason. The money of the bald eagle is not so easy to get for him.

   "You, that Boss, what do you want?" Voloz felt that there was a hole in it, but couldn't help but ask.

   "Yeadex has a 40% stake!" Irene heard the cautious look on the other side of the phone, and couldn't help rolling her eyes, considering Yeadex's current situation, is there anything worth pitting her.

   "Of course you can refuse, then we will give you the same conditions to your competitors in Lao Maozi, Er Mao, Czech Republic, Ukraine and other places!"

Irene threatened Woroz. These words used to be used by venture capital firms in Silicon Valley to threaten newly established Internet startups. Now that Irene used it, Irene suddenly felt that it was like being a villain, especially To be a villain for someone like Lao Maozi who has been fighting with Amelica for half a century seems to be a good taste.

Arkady Voloz couldn't think of a reason to refuse. As for the taboo to cooperate with America, it doesn't exist for Lao Maozi, who is still in chaos. I can't afford it, and I can't care about anything else.

   "Yeadex is willing to accept cooperation!" Arkady Voloz said, holding the phone in his hand.

  Irene was satisfied with this answer, "Come to San Jose as soon as possible!"

After    hung up the phone, Irene still had some headaches. According to Song Yang's request, in order to avoid future troubles, whether it was the investment in Yeadex or the cooperation with Hotmail, she had to make a circle.

The Hotmail mailbox has a brand and funds, through an offshore fund established in Eastern Europe, and then bypassing Lao Maozi to establish a foundation to cooperate with Yeadex, even if all Lao Maozi knows that Song Yang is Yeadex's major shareholder One of them, but as long as Song Yang doesn't admit it, no one can do it!

Irene has some headaches. I don't know why Song Yang is spending so much trouble. Old Maozi has been crippled by Amelica. Now many people in Amelica are shouting that they want to turn Lao Maozi into Amelica's wood and heels. energy base.

Now that America has reached the limit of madness, there are constant media clamors, Europe is America's little brother, North America is America's back garden, OPEC contributes oil to America, NATO is America's thug, the World Bank It's the cash machine of America, which is recreating the "New Victorian" at the height of Britain...

   Affected by this, Irene's attitude towards Lao Maozi can be imagined, and she is naturally quite helpless about Song Yang's careful arrangement of investment in Yeadex.

Not only Arkadi Voroz and Yeadex, but also a little puzzled about the cooperation with Hotmail mailboxes, even Yinghaiwei, which has just been established in China for less than half a year, was also very surprised when it received the request for cooperation with Hotmail mailboxes. The founder, Zhang Shuxin, had a similar reaction to Arkady Voloz.

Especially when I heard the news from the Hotmail mailbox, Yinghaiwei side, a little "meaningful", whether it is to give a deposit, or use the Hotmail mailbox proxy to invest in Yinghaiwei, the other side will accept it, so loose. The conditions of cooperation really surprised Ying Haiwei.

   Later, on Ying Haiwei's side, through various channels, when they found out that the founder of Hotmail was Song Yang, Zhang Shuxin and Ying Haiwei vaguely understood why Hotmail did this.

  Yinghaiwei replied to the Hotmail mailbox, at the price of 50,000 yuan, and gave up 3% of the equity of Yinghaiwei, making Song Yang the nominal director of Yinghaiwei as the acting home, in exchange for Hotmail's proxy right in the country.

Song Yang didn't think much about such a condition, and immediately agreed to it. The current Internet users in China don't add up to 50,000, and it is estimated that 30,000 is enough. Therefore, Song Yang gave Ying Haiwei the proxy right of Hotmail. just mean it.

To give up Hotmail mailboxes requires the agency rights in China. Song Yang actually wants to make the Internet industry in China maintain the same level as America. Generation difference.

  The cooperation with Yinghaiwei is similar to that of Yeadex, including within the mainland, the naming rights of e-mails, mailbox patents, codes, etc. are all authorized to Yinghaiwei.

   For Ying Haiwei, who has obtained the Hotmail mailbox agency, it is natural to have a great reputation in China and become the banner of the first generation of the Internet in China, but how far Ying Haiwei can reach is not what Song Yang can expect.

Hotmail has issued overseas agency rights, and Song Yang also received a large amount of agency fees. A total of 19 overseas companies have represented the Hotmail mailbox brand. Among them, the "guarantee" of 1.5 million US dollars is only ten. Four, and the rest are emerging companies like Yeadex and Yinghaiwei.

   Even so, the Hotmail mailbox also used this to recover 21 million US dollars, allowing Song Yang to see Huihui in the Hotmail mailbox.

  In addition to the deposit, it is also an agent for Hotmail mailboxes of France Telecom and other companies. Hotmail headquarters can also receive Hotmail mailboxes in France, Germany, Spain and other places, because Hotmail mailboxes generate 40% of the profit.

In fact, the main revenue of Hotmail mailboxes comes from mailbox advertisements, as well as some promotion expenses, etc. However, how much money can be distributed to Hotmail headquarters every year by French telecom and other local snakes, it depends on the conscience of these local snakes. In a short period of time, Song Yang was nowhere to be found when he took French Telecom, Siemens and other companies.

In addition to the Hotmail mailbox to seal the princes, the American Advertising Interactive Association IAB is also in the process of intensive promotion. Song Yang wants to establish the IAB in the shortest possible time to deal with the leadership of Ella Cherry. pressure to come.

  Netscape and Mark Anderson were a little surprised when they received a call from Song Yang inviting Netscape to join the IAB Association, "IAB?"

   "You are Netscape. If IAB lacks Netscape, it will not be a complete IAB. The first president of IAB is Anderson!"
