Rebirth of the 92 Business Tycoon

Vol 4 Chapter 57: play me?

"Must I go and talk to him in person?"

"Yes, he insisted." Merbach seemed to be a little injured and a little guilty. "The point is, I don't know his attitude yet, or where there is any opinion about our cooperation plan, I just ask After he gave a general introduction, he said that you must talk to him."

Haha, I didn't expect this to be a bit naughty guy!

"Then I will talk to him, and you will make an appointment for me,"

"I made an appointment, he said that the sky is not available,"

"Then the day after tomorrow,"

"He said the day after tomorrow is also very full,"

"So," Feng Yiping nodded and shook his head, "Then I understand, you should come back first,"

Feng Yiping really didn't expect this guy to be so childish?

This is because of the past. Is it possible to find some places back?

Of course, he believes that the other party should really have too tight schedules. The other party is a big figure who has been famous for a long time. It will not be so unprofessional, and it should not be in this cooperation that is also very beneficial to them from any angle. Incorporate into such a child-like personal emotion.

He also had to comfort Merbach, a founder and ceo, who went to meet another founder and ceo, but was asked to talk in person. This taste is equivalent to a face-to-face slap. It should be really uncomfortable to think about it.

"It's okay Feng, we are all familiar with his style. His attitude today is actually pretty good. He just said that there are some issues to discuss with you first." Merbach's response was actually not bad. "I think you guys were not happy before. Contact? Strange, have you been in contact before?"

Buchanan and Mike laughed beside them.

"It's not a very pleasant contact," Feng Yiping said.

"Let’s talk about it," Buchanan said actively, "it’s really not that there was any unpleasant contact, but in May, they proposed an acquisition proposal with a price of up to 1.5 billion U.S. dollars to acquire nextdoor as a whole. , But Feng made me resolutely refuse,"

"Ah, what happened?"

"I also add one point," Mike said, "They have never been able to surpass us when it comes to group buying."

"Oh right, and the comment section of our website should have a certain degree of impact on the imdb he acquired,"

"This is what you said is not an unpleasant contact?" Merbach suddenly felt a sense of being trapped. "I said, I have contacted him more than once before, and the situation like today is still the first. Times,"

"I'm sorry, Lao Mo," Feng Yiping poured him a glass of wine—the wine cabinet is a standard feature in the offices of many executives of Western companies. "I originally thought that business belongs to business. I didn't expect him to be so self-willed. ,"

"Yes," Buchanan also said.

"Come on, Buchanan," Merbach said rudely, "Fon doesn't understand, you don't understand his character? He is not a person who likes to be rejected. As for waywardness, he has long been qualified for waywardness. "

"Yeah, how else would everyone call him the emperor?" Buchanan said.

The person they are talking about is naturally the same in Seattle, another high-tech company besides Microsoft, the founder and CEO of Amazon, Jeff Bezos.

"If he could, he would choose to be emperor," more than one person said of him.

Anyway, foreigners have their own personalities. These well-known American entrepreneurs are, to a certain extent, comparable to those crazy artists.

Maybe when they were unsuccessful in the early stage, these characteristics were still not obvious. When they had a certain strength, that was really, the personality had gotten to the point of perverse - of course, this was mainly internal.

For example, Jobs, in everyone’s impression, is a wise and calm person; for example, Musk, who seems to be a bit shy and bad-spoken in public, is a man of science and engineering; Bezos has always appeared in public. It was the look of Uncle Nuan, who was smiling and very easy-going.

But internally, they are not what the public knows at all.

Jobs, his achievements and achievements are known to the world, but what most people don’t know is that he will cry with his temper like a child, and will be very angry with people around him because of small things. The employee was given the nickname, "That bastard,"

Now he and Feng Yiping are still very polite, and Musk, who was also blown to the sky later, is described by the staff as "the tyrant from hell,"

As for Bezos, the guy who became famous earlier than Musk and went smoother than Jobs, he was naturally not much better. In the early days of his business, he was called "that beast," because of his merciless large-scale mergers and acquisitions.

Amazon has been operating until now, and he has been at the helm until now. He has accumulated a lot of power. Inside Amazon, it can be said that he can say nothing. Moreover, he especially enjoys this atmosphere. Speaking of which, he is really no different from the emperor.

"Well, I wronged you, Lao Mo, so, just in time, we will study and study what topics he will talk to me,"

"But Feng, can't you tell that he is making things difficult now? There is no clear answer to the appointment," Mike said.

"Tomorrow, he said that there is no time, the day after tomorrow, he just said that the schedule is very tight, and did not say that there is no time, I think he will squeeze time out then,"

"Do you have any good ideas?" Buchanan asked.

"Shanren has a clever plan," Feng Yiping can learn from Zhuge Liang this time, shaking the goose feather fan.

"Come on, let's think about it first, he will talk to me about those topics, and then, Lao Mo, you let out some wind...," Feng Zhuge arranged for it.

…………

For this first acquisition of Nextdoor led by Feng Yiping, many people in the market are paying attention to the follow-up trends. This attention is mainly focused on Feng Yiping.

It can be said that this is the first show in the United States of the youngest richest man and well-known expert in that ancient country across the ocean.

Because of all the previous business operations, he stayed behind the scenes, and this time he acquired Coinstar. From the beginning, he stood in front of the stage.

There are really many people who are thinking about watching the excitement. They really want to see what tricks this little guy with a reputation can do after acquiring such a company with weak growth and a fixed market space. , And how can it help his main business?

It can be said that Feng Yiping did not disappoint them. On the first day of announcing the merger, there was news that Coin Star had launched a very popular business plan that was also very helpful for expanding its own business.

It is said that this plan has been supported by many companies, but many people are confused about what kind of plan it is.

Immediately, they have a chance to know.

Yesterday, in front of Feng Yiping, George, the public relations manager who showed a small face, didn't stop in front of Feng Yiping's office and knocked on the door of the Merbach office next door.

He realized afterwards that his flattery yesterday, perhaps probably, was on the horseshoe of the new boss, but now, it is better to show up in front of him less.

"Merbach, the details of the interview application received from yesterday to today have been sent to your mailbox,"

"Sit down, let me see, oh, it's a lot, very good," Merbach nodded, "George, arrange a press conference in the afternoon to explain the company's new business plan to the outside world and disclose to the outside world that we have reached an agreement. The partners of the company, as well as the objects we are preparing to negotiate, can also reveal some news in advance, um, such as this," he circled a company on the file.

"This one?" George was puzzled.

"Especially this one, just do as I say,"

…………

At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, Coin Star held the company's first press conference after the merger. Most of the reporters present were directed at Feng Yiping, but unfortunately, he did not show up again.

The press conference was hosted by the company's spokesperson, Ms. Marcy, "This press conference is to explain to friends in the media industry the progress of a key business plan that our company is carrying out. There is no question link. Thank you for your cooperation."

There was a sudden uproar, this is not the attitude that a small company like Coin Star should have.

Marcy ignored the noise below, and started reading to the draft, "From the first day of the merger, we have launched a coin-for-card plan."

She spent a certain amount of space to explain the essence of this plan, “I am very pleased that the launch of this plan has been welcomed and supported by many of our previous partners and many new partners. Yesterday, we It has reached a cooperation intention with Starbucks,"

"As of just now, 7-11, Hilles, Blockbuster... and cvscaremark have reached cooperation intentions with us,"

7-11 is a well-known convenience store chain in the United States. Hills, also a large supermarket chain in the United States, and Blockbuster, is a DVD leasing giant, with branches all over the United States.

CVS, the largest pharmaceutical retailer in the United States, has more than 5,000 retail stores in the United States, and it can be said that it is also a leading company in this field.

Several other companies, the same is true, are regional or national chain enterprises.

Speaking of it, there are more companies cooperating on this matter than on the coin exchange machine.

The reason is also easy to understand. Not all chain companies have places to put coin-star exchange machines, such as those convenience stores that are originally small in size. Where else can you put such a big exchange machine?

Or Starbucks, how could it agree to put a coin exchange machine at the door of its coffee shop that makes coins rattle from time to time? Then let some petty bourgeoisie cry to death?

It's a very elegant place, but the sound of coins is full of ears. You are forcing us to spit on you!

However, coin exchange cards, which do not occupy its place, but also promote its business, are all welcome.

Every time Marcy reads the name of a company, the following is a boost. This Feng from China really has two things.

Why do you say that, isn't it simple? He just put this company in his pocket, and he immediately made such an action. This must be his idea.

Moreover, even the guys who have mastered the seven know-hows of business management can figure out how much such a plan can improve the performance of Coin Star.

A lot of guys are already thinking, should they buy some Coin Star stocks? It seems that after being acquired by that Feng, its performance should reach a big stage.

"At the same time, we are tensedly in contact with many other possible partners, for example," Marcy paused, "paypal,"

"As soon as we have new intentions, we will promptly explain to everyone that today's press conference is over, thank you!"

"Marsie," "Marsie," the reporters shouted one after another, but they were all blocked out.

…………

"Blockbuster, when did Blockbuster react so quickly?" At Netflix in Silicon Valley, CEO Hastings was out of breath again.

Under his frequent urging, Netflix has initially worked out an anti-takeover plan, but after reading it, he was not satisfied.

Because there is no specific target, this anti-takeover plan, to put it bluntly, is like bringing together the commonly used anti-takeover methods. What use is it?

But Hastings is not good to say anything. He can't say to his opponent, "You will make us a reverse takeover agreement for nextdoor."

"Why? Because this is my instinct, and because of their acquisition of Coin Star, the registered company is Blue Ocean 1, and there will definitely be 2 next, and I think we are the target that 2 will target,"

If he says that, it is estimated that Netflix will have to advise him to see a psychiatrist, or from now on, he and the patients at the famous Anding Hospital in our capital (a well-known mental hospital in the country) will be in the same world.

But, although the possible acquisition has not yet come, their first acquisition is already adding to their own obstacles.

On the list of cooperation intentions announced by Coin Star ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Hastings saw Blockbuster at a glance, from which he felt full of malice.

He read all the news, so he knew that the coin exchange plan this time was that Coin Star took the initiative to negotiate with potential merchants, so why did they find Blockbuster instead of their own Netflix in the first place? ?

Hastings is so slow to respond, and a company with an outdated model can reach a cooperation intention so quickly. Netflix will definitely be faster, so why find him and not me?

This is definitely not without reason!

I'll talk about the future later. I can't just watch it now. Hastings thought about it, adjusted his emotions, and dialed a call with a smile, "Hello Buchanan!"

Seattle, Amazon headquarters.

Amazon’s coo, walked quickly into Bezos’s office, put a notebook on his desk, "Jeff, you have to look at this," ⑧±妙(.*)笔⑧±阁⑧± , O

"What is it?" Bezos asked without looking up, still browsing a document to be signed.

"Coin Star has just held a press conference to inform them of their coin exchange plan,"

"That's it?" Bezos made several corrections on the file, looked up at the video, and still went to look at his file, "Is there anything I don't know?"

Coo had no choice but to adjust the video to almost the end, "Listen,"

In the video, Marcy just said "paypal,"

"Huh?" Bezos finally turned his attention, leaving the file on the table, his expression gloomy, "They have reached an agreement with Paypal?"

He has reached out to the phone. If the answer is yes, he will immediately ask Merbach, are you kidding me?
