My Age of Investment

"Mr. Schmidt, let me ask a question that is of most concern to the audience and even Internet users around the world. How does Google plan to deal with the combination of Microsoft and Yahoo?"

"Sorry! I think you should ask Mr. Ballmer this question. They have proven their fear of Google with practical actions."

"Fear? Hahaha, with all due respect, Google's stock price has fallen by more than 10% these days, and tens of billions of dollars in market value have evaporated from the market. This reflects concerns about Google's market share."

"Then let's wait and see! It will take at most two years, oh, no, one year to determine the winner in the search engine market. The combination of weak and weak will still be a weak in the final analysis!"

…

In the office of Silicon Valley Vision Capital, Xia Jingxing was cracking melon seeds and watching TV programs played on the Hulu video website on his computer with great interest.

In the video of the show, the host keeps digging holes. However, Google's current CEO Eric Schmidt seems not to have seen these holes. In other words, he is not afraid of controversy. He looks extremely confident and strong.

The news of Microsoft's massive acquisition of Yahoo has become a hot news topic in the United States after continuous fermentation these days.

However, Google has always turned a deaf ear, leaving the public with a lot less expectations.

Yesterday, Schmidt suddenly appeared on an exclusive interview program on CBS, a subsidiary of Viacom, and made a public evaluation and response to Microsoft's acquisition of Yahoo for the first time - a combination of weak and weak is still a weak in the final analysis.

After being circulated for a day, these remarks have now spread all over the Internet, and have been viewed tens of millions of times on the Hulu video website alone.

Countless netizens praised Google for its domineering power and overthrew all enemies in the world, causing Google's stock to rebound several points;

At the same time, there are countless people who think Schmidt is too arrogant. Google has only been around for a few years? How dare you look down on the old giant Microsoft! The temperament of the nouveau riche is vividly displayed.

Xia Jingxing was about to close the video window when suddenly a message popped up on Facebook.

He clicked on it and saw a message sent to him by Kristina through the instant messaging tool Facebook Chat: Your plan was successful again!

A link to the news was sent with the message.

Xia Jingxing did not rush to reply to Kristina. He clicked on the news link first, and the page jumped to the Hulu video website.

"Ballmer on Google - Arrogance and arrogance have reduced this company to mediocrity."

Looking at the title of this video, Xia Jingxing smiled, CBS TV station has talents!

It's still the same TV show and the same host, but the guest invited to participate in the interview has changed from Schmidt to Ballmer.

Google Chairman VS Microsoft CEO.

Definitely mastered the traffic password!

Xia Jingxing grabbed a handful of melon seeds from the table, held it in his hand, and watched the TV program with gusto.

"Google and Schmidt are not qualified to evaluate Microsoft and Yahoo. Microsoft has changed the computer, let alone Yahoo. Without Yahoo's support, Google would have become one of the thousands of failed startups..."

"Yes, Microsoft's most important business direction in the next stage is search engines. The board of directors has authorized and approved US$10 billion in funding. Next, we will start from several directions such as upgrading technology, optimizing content, and expanding partners..."

"Determine the winner within a year? Haha, we think so too, but we are the winner and they are the loser."

…

Ballmer talked eloquently on the show, and his tone was even more powerful than Schmidt's yesterday.

After watching the video and eating all the melon seeds in his hand, Xia Jingxing clapped his hands.

Beautifully done!

To be honest, Xia Jingxing didn't expect that the chairman and CEO of the two companies would end up fighting so quickly, without even preparing foreplay. It was too impatient.

But when I think about it carefully, I think it’s normal.

Microsoft spent 41 billion US dollars to completely reverse the decline of the search engine. This acquisition is undoubtedly a failure. Maybe Ballmer, the new CEO, will take the blame.

Therefore, whether he is on the show to criticize Google or announcing a tens of billions of dollars in search engine upgrade plans, it is a true portrayal of Ballmer under heavy pressure and starting to go all out.

Xia Jingxing guessed that Schmidt and Google were not as relaxed as they appeared on the surface. Tactically they despised their enemies, but strategically they valued them.

If the two companies are going head-to-head, there will be a lot of fun to come.

Microsoft has decided to invest US$10 billion in non-main business, so as Google’s main business, search engine investment will at least be no less than that of Microsoft.

The two companies are playing tricks around the search engine, which is definitely a major good news for Facebook, Android and other companies. Most of the firepower has been attracted by Microsoft, at least one more year of development time. .

Thinking of this, Xia Jingxing showed a satisfied smile. His busy work was well worth it, and several major business and strategic goals were achieved.

He closed the video window, returned to the Facebook page, and typed a reply to Kristina: "Next, Microsoft is likely to ask to re-sign the search engine cooperation agreement with Facebook and YouTube. Don't set too many obstacles. Now Microsoft The weak, we need to help them more.

The more time they can attract Google's attention, the more time we have to develop.

But don't agree too readily. It's a total of 10 billion US dollars, so you have to tear it off. "

Kristina replied with a smiley face emoticon, followed by a text: "I know! But Marissa asked me to go to a fashion show yesterday, and she was trying to find out what she meant. She wanted Facebook to Work with Google.”

Xia Jingxing smiled, Marissa and Kristina had a plastic best friend relationship. Although they often made appointments to play together, they were actually testing each other.

Larry Page couldn't bear to touch himself or Kristina directly, so he released some kindness through Marissa.

Xia Jingxing replied: "They are dreaming. Microsoft and Gates are important shareholders of Facebook and YouTube. How can they be left behind to cooperate with Google.

But this shows that Google has begun to go all out, and does not take Microsoft and Yahoo seriously as Schmidt said.

This old man is very bad, and he is clearly trying to paralyze the enemy. "

Christina replied: "Okay, then I will reject Marissa!"

"No, Marissa's bridge of friendship must also be used to allow Google to send out its negotiation team in a fair and honest manner."

Kristina immediately reacted. This was using Google to put pressure on Microsoft, thereby forcing Microsoft to make concessions in the negotiations.

"You are so bad. Mr. Gates has always regarded you as a friend."

"I also regard Mr. Gates as a friend! Otherwise, I would have gone to Google directly. Why would there be such trouble? I just watched Microsoft invest 10 billion US dollars, which is too much. I was afraid that they would not be able to spend all the money. I helped spend it." Just a moment."

"Well, you made me start to believe in the friendship between me and Marissa again. I just saw that her position at Google was becoming more and more marginalized, and I just gave her a little hope to encourage her."

Xia Jingxing smiled. Is this the disciple he trained with his own hands? I already have a somewhat affectionate and righteous demeanor.

After chatting with Kristina for a while, the cell phone on the table rang.

Xia Jingxing picked it up and saw that it was a call from another good friend of his, Beitu.
