,

After two days.

Google Chairman Larry Page and CEO Eric Schmidt arrived in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg by flight.

Google vice chairman and chief technology officer Sergey Brin, who was stranded in Luxembourg for several days, came to the airport to pick him up in person.

"That is to say, are we the first to arrive?" The young Larry Page was still in high spirits.

"certainly!"

Sergey Brin said proudly: "Man, we are golden partners, you believe me, it's right!"

The CEO Eric Schmidt on the side seemed much calmer. He smiled and said, "We arrived in the first batch, which was something I didn't expect before I came here."

"Eric, why do you think this way?" Sergey Brin asked.

Hearing the words, Eric Schmidt said: "Before taking the flight, I was thinking that Mr. Jeff Bezos of Amazon should be the first to arrive, after all, when it comes to Mr. Zucker Wald He should be one of the best known. But now, when it comes to decisiveness, Larry is better."

"That is!"

Larry Page raised his chin proudly.

Emotions and anger are shown on the outside, is this very immature?

Not really!

It's because Larry Page is such a blunt person, a successful boss, but more inclined to be a good network engineer. He is also well aware of his own shortcomings and knows that his current boss is not qualified, which is why he strongly requested to hire him Eric Schmidt as the CEO.

soon.

The three of them left the airport, and after more than an hour's journey, they arrived at the headquarters of Starship Technology Company, and Zhu Ke had been waiting here for a long time.

"Mr. Wald, do you know that I must come?"

As soon as we met, Larry Page was certain that Zucker was here, and the same Zucker was also certain that he would fly to Luxembourg.

Zhu Ke shook hands with him and couldn't help laughing: "Just your cleverness,

It's hard for me to lie to you. So let's not talk about it, Starship Technology's A round of financing is about to start. "

At this moment, Larry Page also turned a lot.

See people talking, see ghosts talking. In the face of an engineer like Larry Page, Zucker's straight-to-the-point conversation is more efficient than any other means.

Zhu Ke said again: "Starship Technology's A round of financing will be completed within a few days, and it must be completed before the official launch of the skype software to the market."

"Understood. You are also trying to increase the influence of skype software."

Larry Page responded.

Zhu Ke nodded: "It's easy to talk to you. The first batch of shares released by Starship Technology is as high as 20%."

Larry Page: "Can Google own the 20%?"

Zucker smiled: "Obviously, it's... can't be!"

Larry Page: "Mr. Wald, you're still as... cunning."

Zucker laughed: "Thank you for the compliment, it's an honor."

After some conversation, Larry Page left with the team, and he was about to start making an offer for a stake in Starship Technology.

At this moment, the chief assistant Villa on the side suddenly said: "Boss, I heard senior Alexander say that Larry Page and Sergey Brin, in 1998, when they saw you, their attitude was very A respect, no! To be precise, they treat you with awe, or even worship."

"However, looking again today, I see that the rumors are not true."

How should Zucker answer these words?

Zucker: "..."

In fact, Villa was absolutely right!

In 1998, Larry Page and Sergey Brin founded Google. At that time, Google was located in a garage. The start-up capital for their business was still sponsored by university professors. difficult.

Under this circumstance, Zhu Ke, who holds the titles of "angel investor" and "Internet tycoon", sent a letter to them in his own name, inviting the two of them to come to Los Angeles.

excited!

Excited!

Excitedly hard to attach!

Wait, this is all about the psychological feedback of the two of them at that time. When they came to Los Angeles and met Zucker for the first time, it was even more like seeing God.

Zucker invested heavily in Google and became an angel investor.

So, how much did Zucker pay?

--1,000,000!

Moreover, directly won a 30% stake in Google!

"Thank you very much, Mr. Wald. You are an angel. You are so generous."

This is what Larry Page said at the time.

But now what?

Larry Page and Sergey Brin, think about what they said at the time, and now they want to die.

Where is Zucker so generous, he is simply robbery!

You must know that as of now, even if Google is not listed, the overall valuation of Google given by investment banks such as Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley is as high as $3.5 billion!

Even now, after Google has gone through several rounds of share expansion financing, Zucker chooses to make additional investment and follow-up investment every time. In order to defend against other shareholders, Zucker knows that he has lent Google a lot of money for free. Now, Zucker still owns Google. 29% of the shares.

What a "ruthless"!

Zucker is the current largest shareholder of Google, no one!

"Villa, people's ambitions will continue to expand with the improvement of their status. Larry and Sergey are no longer the young people who were just starting out. In other words...it's not good to fool around!" Zu Keda Can't stop laughing.

Villa: "..."

That's right!

Zucker did piss off Larry and Sergey badly, but this is a battlefield like a battlefield, and there is no room for indecision!

......

the next day.

Jeff Bezos, the president of Amazon, arrived in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg belatedly.

"Man, I'm all thankful for the flowers I've been waiting for you." Zucker joked.

Hearing this, Bei Bald said angrily, "You still said that you and I are best friends? My God, you have such a cross-generational software as Skype, and you can keep it secret to such a degree. No!"

He has some resentment!

Starship Technology's A round of financing and share expansion does not accept individual investors, and the target must be the large company itself.

Jeff Bezos, of course, had to spend a little effort to convince the board, which was a few days late.

"Zuck, does it really have to be Amazon itself, and can't accept my personal name?" Beibei asked with a bald head.

Zu Ke looked solemn and said solemnly: "Man, you know, the skype software will take away the cake of the major communication companies, I need strong allies to resist, defend, and fight back against these wolves, otherwise you think I will be like this. Did you start financing early?"

Bezos pouted and said nothing more.

Zu Ke wants to compete with these communication giants. Of course, he is very clear, and he also knows that Starship Technology will not accept individual investors at present, but will only accept investment from large companies themselves. , In case, Zucker is confused.

The result is obvious, Zucker's cognition of the future is quite calm!

"Boss, it looks like you didn't fudge successfully."

Rah Payton, Amazon's advertising director, laughed.

Hearing this, Bezos shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "I just give it a try. Hey~ This guy is sometimes shrewd and annoying, and he won't take any loss!"

" "The first more is sent.
