Rebirth of the 92 Business Tycoon

Vol 5 Chapter 570: All the way

His gaze swept across the faces on the opposite side. These faces were familiar to him. Two of them were the idols of him and Brin, or, in other words, the idols of many people at that time. The two known as "chiefs".

It was them who really opened the curtain of the Internet era; it was them who laid the foundation for the Internet to change the world; it was also them who determined the two core game rules of the Internet industry: open and free.

They also participated in the meeting today.

Seeing those two coming to participate in today's meeting, Page actually felt a little unreal, and I believe that the same is true of Brin next to him.

Once, in 1997, when the two of them first came up with BackRub, which is the prototype of Google, they did not have the ambitious ambition to change the world through this technology. They just wanted to use this technology to make a little money and spend it first. Finish your studies in school.

The only thing they found was the two alumni, who only offered $1 million.

The idol rejected them!

Unlike Hastings, when he came to Blockbuster and asked the other party to buy Netflix, he felt different. When he was rejected by his idol, Peppa and Brin felt like he was pretty handsome and handsome , Plucked up the courage to find her favorite goddess to confess, and the goddess regarded him as a joke.

After that, they naturally reacted the same as most men. I had to make a name and make her regret it!

Now, Page took a look at Brin and they did it! ——So, you can't be frustrated with Secondary Two because you are afraid that Secondary Two will have technology.

Page only stayed on the faces of those two for a second or two. At this moment, he actually felt that he had stood at a new height and could look down at the height of the person who was looking up before.

Google, who was born at the time, had to look at these people’s faces for a long time. After taking over Yahoo’s search business, they once begged the two founders on the opposite side to give a speech at their company. Rejected mercilessly-the Yahoo staff member who received a call from Google was told by his boss to firmly reject similar requests from Google.

But now, he speaks to these people as if he speaks to the engineers of his company, and he is also the engineers whose work results make him dissatisfied-he also did it a little deliberately.

It is conceivable that the faces of the group of people on the opposite side are not pretty, including the two founders who always wear high smiles on their faces.

The contempt in the eyes of the two boys opposite, they could see clearly, because the two guys didn't hide their emotions at all.

Yahoo at this time, although its market value has fallen sharply from 128 billion U.S. dollars in 2000, it is undisputed that it is still one of the largest Internet companies in the world. From 2000 to the present, it has been dominating the global Internet. The number one throne is the existence of giant cows.

Otherwise, in the original time and space, the richest man in Ma later will not be desperate to establish relations with Yahoo and Chief Yang next year.

It should be said that no one can despise them like this now!

But before they had time to express their dissatisfaction, Page was already continuing to elaborate on his final solution. "My final plan is 2.5 million shares allotment." He put his hands on the conference table and stared at the other party. That is, at least more than 300 million U.S. dollars, agree, we will sign the agreement immediately, and this issue will turn the page."

"I don't agree." He adjusted his sitting posture and leaned loosely on the back of his chair. "Then we will fight this lawsuit for another few years. I just feel that the Legal Department is now too crowded and too few."

For companies like them, where people are rich and influential, it is quite normal to fight a patent lawsuit like this, and to fight for a few years without results.

The Yahoo gang quickly emerged from the anger just now, thinking about these brief words that Page said.

Drummond, the legal counsel next to Page, could not help but glance at Page. Although he knew Page’s reason, he probably said casually, but he still wanted to explain a few words, "Boss, why do you Have such an impression? Our department is really not easy. It has been so busy that the heels hit the back of the head, okay!"

But where does Page have the time to take care of him?

"Yes, Semel, you heard that right," he said while looking at Yahoo CEO Terry Semel, who was about to talk. "You also know that Brin and I have been reluctant to IPO at this time, so there is no A better way than your obstacle,"

Could this be true? The Yahoo gang, this pair of eyes are like searchlights, focusing on the faces of Page and Brin and shooting.

From today's battle we can see how much they attach importance to this matter.

Since the beginning of the dot-com bubble, the company's market value has fallen sharply, Yahoo has actually been quite uncomfortable and has spent huge sums of money to acquire many start-up companies in order to inject new vitality into the company.

However, for those hugely expensive acquisitions, there is only one result they are unwilling to admit, and that is a cup of coffee table-full of tragedy!

Not only did the acquired companies fail to inject new vitality into the company, but after becoming a subsidiary of Yahoo, these companies that seemed to have a promising future soon declined.

Among these failures, they included the search engine company that they acquired for $1.63 billion last year, that is, Overture, which has a patent dispute with Google.

They originally wanted to use Google’s AdWords to compete evenly in the advertising market. Unfortunately, even with the Yahoo platform, Overture still failed to do Google’s advertising.

Not only is advertising revenue low, advertisers are also generally dissatisfied with the effectiveness of advertising, which can be said to have entered a vicious circle.

Fortunately, unlike other acquisitions, Overture can still make a fortune in patent lawsuits that it is not clear with Google, and that it is public and reasonable.

And it just happened that they acquired last year, and today Google is about to IPO. What a good opportunity is this?

So, will Page's statement that he doesn't want an IPO be true?

In the face of their scorching eyes, Page will be completely fearless, with a face of bachelor, I just don't want to IPO, if you want to help me, then, come on!

The bachelor's second grader, his mind is not easy to guess, at least, people in the circle have heard of their opposition to listing.

Helplessly exchanged views with everyone with his eyes, Semel said, "I think we have to discuss it."

"It just so happens that we wanted to go out and get some air,"

When they got up, Chief Yang said for the first time, "Sorry, why didn't Feng come today?"

Page was stunned, "Feng is not responsible for these matters," he still bothered to clear Feng Yiping from the matter.

"That's it," Chief Yang nodded. "That's a very good young man. I really look forward to meeting him."

His demeanor is still good, no matter whether he is commenting on Feng Yiping or expressing his desire to meet Feng Yiping, he has not put on a high profile.

It should be said that Feng Yiping's recent outstanding performance is also an important reason for his statement.

"Jerry, I will definitely tell Feng what you have said," Peppa turned around to leave when he saw that he hadn't followed suit. At this time, Chief Yang waved again, "Wait,"

However, his lips moved a few times, and the last thing he said was, "It's okay,"

Peppa really wants to ask this, this will look a little lonely, one of his former idols, what are you doing?

What Chief Yang wanted to say was, are you willing to be acquired? However, he was wise not to say this sentence, so he should not be humiliated by himself.

Google wants to sell now, can it afford it? The answer is yes, can't afford it!

The current Yahoo is not the one with a market value of hundreds of billions.

It seems that there are some things, once you miss it, you can never come back.

At first they wanted to sell cabbage at the price, but they didn't like it. Now they want to buy it, but they can't afford it. The most painful thing in business is this!

Chief Yang suddenly became overwhelmed with depression.

…………

Unlike the frustration and solemnity inside, the two guys in the lounge next to it would be so active that they couldn't sit still.

Peppa shook his shoulders. "It feels like it's relaxed and sublimated all at once."

Brin thought about the appearance of the two former idols, and shook his head, "So strategy is very important."

"So Feng is very important," the two of them said almost in unison-this kind of drift is really unexpected for Feng Yiping.

Why are the two great gods who were admired by thousands of people no longer glorious now? The main reason is that there is a problem with their development strategy.

"I'll tell him the good news soon," Page said.

He is certain that Yahoo will accept his final solution.

Ten minutes later, their group was invited into the conference room again. As expected, the rest of Yahoo's people had disappeared, only Semel and a few lawyers were there.

"I knew it!" Page and Brin, both saw the excitement in each other's eyes.

Over there, Semel has reached out to them, "Congratulations!"

In other words, Page is still ready, they bargain, and finally add 200,000 shares to them.

…………

After ten o'clock in the evening, Feng Yiping, who was still processing mail in the study, saw the caller ID on his phone. He smiled and couldn't speak after he got connected. Peppa's unconcealed happy voice came over, "Feng, everything is going well. , They really accepted our terms, and the agreement is in our hands."

"Hehe, I believe you can solve this problem. Tomorrow morning, I will come to the company to celebrate you."

Well, now, IPO is finally not a problem.

However, what he didn't know was that at this meeting, in a classroom in Fudan, a professor named Lang from Hong Kong was giving a speech to dozens of ordinary people." If this is our example of private entrepreneurs in China, then I really have to cry for China's future."

Whether the professor really wanted to cry or not, nobody knows, but David and Andrew, who arrived in Silicon Valley at noon the next day, just got off the plane and really wanted to cry.

The two of them had just walked out of the boarding bridge with high spirits, and when they turned on their mobile phones, they rang quickly. When they saw it, the company didn’t care much, but when they answered the phone, their faces were all It's ugly.

"F%uck," Andrew kicked his suitcase a few meters away.

"Don't pick it back~www.wuxiaspot.com~ He was angry at an assistant beside him, and then asked David unceremoniously, "Is this the initiative you said? "

David was so depressed that he wanted to throw his phone, "Andrew, I never thought they would solve this problem so quickly,"

"I should have thought of it a long time ago," Andrew fixedly looked ahead, "David, there is one thing we didn't pay attention to. Do you remember that their browser was uninstalled as a virus by Microsoft? It only took less than two days. , Microsoft released a patch for that vulnerability, and that was Microsoft,"

David did not respond. He dragged his suitcase and walked out silently. What's the point of saying this now?

…………

They still received a warm welcome from Google. Since entering the Google Park, everyone greeted them with a smile, but they were not happy at all.

Schmidt also smiled and stood at the door of the conference room to greet them, "Sorry, let the two of you run again, please come in."

As soon as the two parties were seated, he smiled and went straight to the subject, “In view of the changes in the current situation, my friends who signed to me don’t have to worry about the underwriting issue. Then I think that some of the original conditions have come When revising it, "Looking at the bitter faces on the opposite side, Schmidt at this meeting also feels very proud.

So this afternoon, Schmidt staged a joyous run again, and the result was still the same as last time. He found three of them in Feng Yiping's office. "Haha, do you know the final result?" He waved excitedly. Started, "Only 2.8%, the two of them have always agreed to let 0.2 more,"

"Yeah!" The three immediately gave him a high-five to celebrate, but Feng him, "Feng, what are you still worried about?"

"It's nothing, it should be that everything is ready at last, and I feel a little weak," Feng Yiping said with a strong smile.
