Rebirth of the 92 Business Tycoon

Asia’s biggest impact on San Francisco should be the California cold current from the Philippine Islands. Under the combined action of it and the low-temperature ocean near San Francisco, the hot summer in Silicon Valley, although the sun is as bright, is actually very cool and the temperature is not high, at least In the big sun, at most, it is a little sun-dried, but not like in the capital, which feels scorching.

Feng Yiping dressed casually, with big sunglasses, and drove Yajun, who hadn't touched him for a long time, and drove Huang Jingping and Amanda on the 101 highway.

Amanda wears small brown sunglasses and a slap drum in her hand. She keeps tapping vigorously and screams a few times from time to time. She doesn't know if it is happy or to get her father's attention.

Huang Jingping looked peaceful and happy. Such days and scenes made her very satisfied.

In the parking lot near the cruise terminal, Feng Yiping lifted his daughter from the safety seat, "Do you like Dad to hold you?"

"Yeah," the little guy nodded, and now she was finally able to communicate briefly, and then took the initiative to give Feng Yiping a kiss on the face.

For more than 14 months, she is very attached to her parents. Of course, there may be reasons why she didn't see her mother and father during that period.

"Feng," on the yacht, Peppa waved to them happily. He had a messy beard two days ago, and he finally cleaned it up today. Now it looks like his chin and cheeks are black.

"Amanda," Brin shook Amanda's little hand a few times, and took the stroller from Huang Jingping. In these respects, he was better than Page.

However, it seemed that he had a purpose in doing this today. He said to a tall lady standing beside the yacht, "Annie, this is Feng Hehuang,"

"Hello," this lady looks different from the ones Brin brought before. First of all, she is not beautiful, and secondly she has a fairly average body. In addition to being quite tall, in the end, this woman looks a bit older, which is why Feng Yiping called her a lady in his heart, not a girl.

"Anne Wojcicki, nice to meet you,"

"Hello, nice to meet you, Wojcicki? Excuse me, are you and Susan?" Feng Yiping said that Susan is Susan Wojcicki, one of the veterans of Google, like the tenth employee , Currently working in the advertising department, because it is the first employee of Google to have children, the current design of Google’s nursery is from her.

Of course, the most important point is that the garage that Larry and Brin rented when they first started their business was her house.

"That's my sister,"

Oh, then the two of them should have known each other a long time ago. Looking at Brin's attitude today, he seems to be a little different to this one. Is it true?

"Wow, so cute, I'm sorry, can I?" She asked Amanda in Feng Yiping's arms.

"You have to be prepared, she is not light now, she is also very naughty," Feng Yiping said with a smile.

"I have experience, my sister already has more than one child," this is not a lie, her movements are really professional.

Page holding two glasses of wine, handing them to Feng Yiping and Brin, he signaled to the wheelhouse to set off the boat, and the three of them walked towards the front deck. "The other shareholders once again proposed to go public, and this time they were very firm, Feng, your opinion. What?"

"I think that for companies like us, going public should be inevitable," Feng Yiping said.

Search companies, in addition to advanced search engines, the accumulation of content is also very important. For such a company that controls all aspects of information and can control users to see those information first, going public is not just a business aspect. The consideration is also the consensus of the government and the public. For such a company, it is of course hoped that it will become more transparent and that it must accept all aspects of supervision.

"The important thing is to choose the right time to go public,"

"In this regard, you have always had a unique vision, so when do you think the most appropriate time?"

"I think it will be more appropriate to consider the launch of the products we are currently developing, at least the browser and mailbox, before they are successfully put into use. As for the time, as long as it is not this year,"

Although the Internet industry has picked up this year, the share prices of the domestic companies listed in the United States have even turned several times compared with the same period last year. However, this is really only a very rare phenomenon. Last year, several of them were too miserable. Some stock prices fell below one dollar, and some were even suspended.

According to previous experience, browsers and mailboxes are the two products that can attract customers the most. Now that they are Google’s major shareholder, Feng Yiping naturally hopes that Google’s listing can create greater value for himself.

"Do you think next year will be good too?" Brin asked.

"As long as those two products can be developed and listed as soon as possible, next year is not bad. Investors actually know the prospects of the Internet economy. After the downturn in the past two years, a high-quality company like ours will surely be welcomed and sought after by the market. The two are confident, so they are also very confident in our company's listing. I believe that we will be able to set a record in terms of financing amount."

"The R&D progress is fairly smooth, and it will be launched by the end of the year at the latest." Page has been so busy recently, but also because of this.

What he said did not go well, mainly in terms of public relations.

Google is not only encountering such problems in our country. In fact, it is the same in other countries in the world. The Internet search business is really not just business, and Google currently has a dominant position in the European search market. status.

Although it has not yet been listed, it has become a small giant.

The European Union has always been unfriendly to these large multinational companies in the United States. From Microsoft to Apple, it is no exception. Not to mention cutting meat from them in various ways, it will also create difficulties for them under various names.

In the early days of Google's development, these additional resistances were not great, but after Google gradually developed to the search field, similar troubles naturally increased.

This situation is similar to the trade between my country and the EU. Before the trade volume was not large, business in Europe was good. However, now the bilateral trade volume has repeatedly hit new highs, and the EU has immediately become the region with the most anti-dumping investigations against our country.

"Can we consider hiring some government officials in the EU?" Feng Yiping mentioned.

Western companies, when coordinating relations with the government, often hire some former government employees with high salaries to be consultants or lobbyists. He doesn't believe that Page and the others did not expect this.

"This," Page looked a little hesitant, "We have always wanted to make Google a noble and pursuing company. Although these behaviors are common, I think this is a method."

"If our competitors take advantage of this, and we don't take effective measures, how can we change the world? Are we just watching bad money drive out good money?"

"Okay," Peppa nodded. He must have known Brin for a long time. He just wanted to get more support and make his decision at least look more just.

How to put it, although they are very persistent on some issues, they may be better than our domestic counterparts, but from the beginning to the present, they have experienced so many things, and they have successfully maintained this pair under the coveting of Sequoia and KPCB. How can the company's control be pedantic?

"As our company develops and grows, there will be more and more similar things in the future. If we take a long-term view, I think that not only will we hire EU government officials, but best, some of our employees will be able to be accepted by Europe in the future. Government hired.

This strategic interaction will enable us to engage in valuable contacts with the heart of the old European decision-makers and increase our influence in the public sphere."

The two guys looked at each other, raised their glasses, "Cheers,"

"Feng, you are really exactly the same as we thought,"

For Page and Brin, Feng Yiping's answer made them very satisfied and happy.

They thought about the way they had thought of, burning a lot of brain cells to death. When they heard about the problem they were facing, Feng Yiping quickly thought of going with them.

Especially for the latter one, Feng Yiping could also think of it. It was beyond their expectations and made them feel once again that choosing Feng Yiping to invest in the company was a very good decision.

They looked at Feng Yiping's eyes, and they felt a little more sympathetic.

…………

The three here are full of passion and lofty ambitions, and on the shores of Lake Union in Seattle, Washington, Bezos once again darkened his face, "NEXTDOOR, NEXTDOOR again!"

Although Amazon's group buying business is still advancing, they still fail to surpass the founder NEXTDOOR in this field.

Moreover, it turns out that the problem of refunds still exists. The American people, like their government, often don't listen to the truth, even if they know the truth, it really makes sense.

Therefore, Amazon's group-buying business has been somewhat stumbling.

That piece has not been straightened out, and I can’t improve my own benefits while giving NEXTDOOR this very shameless small company. I don’t want to say a little bit of color. It’s better now, they actually affected another area under their own.

That was the IMDB he acquired in 1998 and the first company he acquired.

This British company, after being acquired by Amazon, can not only use IMDB's complete information resources to promote the sales of Amazon DVDs and video tapes, but also get a lot of advertising revenue.

Because the database of this website is the most complete database of movies and filmmakers in the world.

But now, the review section of NEXTDOOR has already shaken IMDB's leading advantage in some areas, mainly in the ratings of newly released films. More and more professional organizations and practitioners are also interested in NEXTDOOR's results.

In the IMDB forum, more and more discussants mentioned NEXTDOR.

Although NEXTDOOR does not currently have a large-scale advertising business, Bezos knows that it will be a matter of time, and by then, it will really directly affect his income.

"Why? Our IMDB has been established for so long and has the most comprehensive database in the world. Why can they pose a threat to us in this field now?"

The person in charge of IMDB was a little nervous, "Their scoring algorithm should be comparable to ours,"

He said that, in fact, he didn't want to destroy his prestige. The NEXTDOOR scoring algorithm should be more scientific than theirs.

"They also have a list of people who voted for, with an age range at the end,"

It can only be said that later companies are indeed easier to do better than their predecessors in some respects. For the same movie, people of different ages can score, the results may be very different.

At this time, IMDB does not have this data ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ keenly sees this, so their data is more meaningful to relevant people.

"Moreover, in their review section, there are more people participating. As you know, their core advantage is those active registered users. Among these users, the most active ones are the housewives. These people have more Time and energy to discuss those issues has a higher probability of creating some hot topics, thereby attracting more people to participate in the discussion,"

"Since you know the problem, why are you sitting here?" Bezos turned his seat and turned his back to them and looked out the window. "I want to see your response and actions as soon as possible."

The sun is shining outside the window, the lake is silver like a mirror, and the rainy and foggy weather in Seattle makes the trees next to it look greener, but these scenes that made Bezos refreshing and pleasing in the past make him not happy at all.

He really didn't expect that his unsuccessful acquisition proposal would have caused him so much trouble. NEXTDOOR, did he intentionally target him because of this?

He shook his head, there should be no such possibility.

He clearly knew that the comment section over there was a functional area that had been launched before he proposed the acquisition.

But this also made him quite unhappy. Why can a section with little investment be a threat to the professional website that he has acquired heavily and developed vigorously? It seems that that company has many extraordinary things that it hadn't noticed before.

Although unhappy, he really had the idea of ​​meeting the founder of NEXTDOOR at this time.

Coincidentally, Feng Yiping was also planning his own trip to Seattle at this time. Of course, he went to Seattle not for Amazon and Bezos. (To be continued.)
