Rebirth of the Internet Overlord

When Ning Zimo's voice and the noise outside the house became louder and louder, Dong Qianqian quickly apologized and rushed out with Ronan and others.

In the corridor in front of the Skype tea room, Ning Zimo was holding a woman's hand and staring at Rothschild firmly.

I don’t know what he said. Rothschild, who was looking at him from a distance, was trembling slightly and seemed to be extremely angry. The uncertain expression on his face exuded even more violence.

Worried that the unknown situation would worsen, Dong Qianqian led a few people and quickly approached Ning Zimo.

Unexpectedly, after seeing them, Ning Zimo just shook his head slightly at them and approached them first.

Afterwards, he led them straight past the Rothschilds "arrogantly".

Dong Qianqian was very surprised to see his "arrogant" attitude, which he had never seen before, and she was even more confused when he held the woman's left hand without letting go from the beginning to the end.

He has never behaved like this, leading a woman in public.

What is the relationship between this charming girl and him?

With such doubts, Dong Qianqian followed Ning Zimo back to the living room.

As soon as she entered the door, she saw the same surprised look in Meg Whitman's eyes.

But what was more serious than her was that her surprise also had other complicated meanings.

Before she could ask, Ning Zimo took the initiative and said, "This is Ling Shengnan, one of my two girlfriends... I believe you have met her before."

"I've seen you many times, but I never knew you would be in the Rothschild team~~ one of the two girlfriends." Meg Whitman nodded slightly towards the two of them, with a smile and deliberate expression on her lips.

The emphasis on the wording of "two people" makes it clear that the meaning of ridicule is unclear.

No matter how many doubts she had, she was attentive and noticed the small movement of the woman's hands tightening when Ning Zimo introduced her. There was too much meaning behind that movement, but as a "partner", she didn't need to know that much.

Ning Zimo passed by, and Meg Whitman took it happily. But Dong Qianqian was confused just now, and after hearing the way he introduced this girl, she suddenly felt that her brain was even more exhausted.

Ling Shengnan?

When did you meet?

Rothschild team member?

Or one of the two girlfriends?

Do you still hold hands in business situations?

What happened?

Not to mention his two girlfriends, the girl who used to be by his side - Sima Lin, his attitude has always been tepid. Why did he suddenly become so passionate today?

Is it because the world is changing too fast, or is it that my "brother" has changed?

Is it possible that the door of this reception room is still a time and space tunnel?

And then realized the time travel in the online novel?

The content that could not be digested was gathered together at once, making Dong Qianqian unable to understand the situation in front of her.

But seeing him sit down quietly with the Ling Sheng boy and girl, no matter how many questions she had, she could only keep them in her heart.

Perhaps, we can report these "two happy events" to our family?

However, when she thought about how "wonderful" such a thing would be if everyone in the Ning family knew about it, Dong Qianqian couldn't think about it any longer and just watched helplessly as Ning Zimo sat firm as a mountain.

As soon as he sat down, Ning Zimo felt a pain running through his fingers and heart on his scalp. He could only smile bitterly in his heart, but he remembered Ling Shengnan's "resume" of starting to learn Sanda at the age of 7.

But his excuse of "one of his two girlfriends" was half an idea, and the other half was a thought he had just figured out.

After all, based on his understanding of her two lives, there are not many reasons for her to stay with him peacefully in her current physical condition. But before giving up hope, seeing that he will still have a happy ending is the most suitable one.

.

This way, at least she can stop using illness as an excuse to avoid him.

The remaining issues will be dealt with slowly by time and people.

Although this clearly exposed his scumbag nature, and although it was difficult for Sima Lin to face it, he had to face it.

The memory of 2001 is so profound that when I recall it with my heart, besides blaming fate, I can only blame myself for being sentimental.

In the rebirth that year, I first met Ling Shengnan, who accompanied and left quietly, and then accidentally met Sima Lin, who sacrificed her life to protect each other and bid farewell to her affectionately.

From then on, all the ripples became a story that ended without a problem because of their existence.

These two profound memories had been hidden in his mind for many years. It was not until he stood in front of the Skype logo and saw Ling Shengnan again that the evil thoughts hidden in his mind were revealed!

He doesn't mean to be a scumbag, but they are both people he doesn't want to let go of!

The rest can only be left to time...

In a state of confusion, Ning Zimo felt movement coming from his hand.

When he came back to his senses, he saw Ling Shengnan's eyes filled with relief and concern.

With one look, he directed his attention to the people in front of him.

The attention that everyone here is paying attention to is waiting for this person.

The palm of my hand was clenched gently again, but without the huge force just now.

After coming back to his senses, Ning Zimo accepted the encouragement, calmed down and looked at Meg Whitman, "Just now, I was going to adjust my negotiation strategy."

Ning Zimo smiled slightly, arousing Meg Whitman's curiosity.

"Ning, what do you mean?" Meg Whitman thought of a possibility, but she was not sure.

Looking up at the clock on the wall, Ning Zimo returned, "Restart negotiations at 2 o'clock. This time, I will do this..."

***+***

It was already 2pm when we returned to the negotiating table. This time, Ling Shengnan, who had been sitting across from him in the morning, was arranged to sit behind him by Ning Zimo.

On the side are the Skype and eBay teams led by Meg Whitman, and on the opposite side are the people who were still "comrades" in the morning.

They looked at him eagerly, but their sight was blocked by Ning Zimo in front of her. The four security personnel sitting firmly on the fishing belt beside her made her feel more at ease.

Ling Shengnan breathed a sigh of relief. At least, if there was any conflict because of her, that would be the last thing she wanted to see.

She didn't want Ning Zimo to be harmed in any way because of such a choice, but the more she worried about something, the more something happened.

As soon as he sat down at the negotiating table, Rothschild across from him suddenly stood up.

"Ning Zimo!!! I think you should give me an explanation!!!"

If Rothschild's eyes and words indicated something, the eyes of everyone in the negotiation room naturally drifted towards Ling Shengnan.

Unexpectedly, Ning Zimo stood up immediately in front of everyone's gaze.

Walking to the opposite side of Meg Whitman, Ning Zimo drew everyone's attention to the other side of the negotiation. He stood still and glanced around, and saw everyone looking at him unanimously.

Ning Zimo nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at Rothschild, "Nominally, this is our second meeting. In fact, you should know best how many times we have met."

Ning Zimo looked at him indifferently as he responded with a hint.

"I don't want you to feel, I want me to feel. Because from the time I recall what you have done, everything you have to do will be at my pace!"

"What qualifications do you have!" Winston stood up with an angry look.

But the ferocity in his anger made him look like a clown in contrast to Ning Zimo's calm demeanor.

Ning Zimo didn't even look at him, and turned to look at Ronan.

Ronan on the other end took out a piece of information from his bag, stood up and threw it in front of Rothschild.

Before Rothschild could pick up the information, Ning Zimo said leisurely: "I believe you all know that the three of you at the negotiation table are meeting me for the second time in a formal setting."

"Oh, no," Ning Zimo shook his head with a smile and said to the angry Winston, "You admire Chinese culture very much, and you also have the name Wen Luoshang. So I am deeply impressed. This is our third

meeting."

Ning Zimo's emphasis on the number of meetings in one meeting seemed puzzling to outsiders, but Rothschild suddenly understood in panic when he saw the information in his hand.

"I met you for the first time at the Overture sales reception. At that time, I didn't realize that the 'excellent' team with a net worth of more than 1 billion would one day embark on the path of thieves."

"you……"

"Calm down, after all, paper can't cover up the fire." Ning Zimo waved to Zhang Junhao who stood up, "I was going to fight you as an ordinary person, but now the situation is so compelling that I can't pretend anymore. Besides,

I'm not used to wasting time, so let's settle our old and new grudges together, and make a clear calculation."

Pointing at the information in front of Rothschild, Ning Zimo suddenly sped up:

"Since 2003, all the projects in which I hold shares, including LinkedIn, MySpace, and ACS, have been attacked and acquired. In the past five years, it has not stopped.

Fortunately, China has always had the best anti-hacking talents, and our Emperor Penguin IT team happens to have a master ranked within 10 in the world. Therefore, it is easy to reverse dig out some key information by following the clues.

You also know that I am a technical person, and I am naturally someone who has been exposed to relational databases. After getting these data, peeling off the cocoon and drawing out the silk is just a matter of habit and analytical thinking.

Therefore, from the perspective of related relationships, when we analyze the relationships between British and German companies including Arlando and Azteca, as well as the connections between your other six offshore relationships, it is all "related" in our minds.

, it’s an easy thing for ‘linear’ people.”

After a deliberate pause, Ning Zimo looked at the Rothschilds who were sitting on pins and needles and smiled lightly:

"I hate piracy the most, so people say that Europeans and Americans are countries that attach great importance to copyright, but in my opinion, what you have done has subverted people's usual views."

Because there were other people in the negotiation room, Ning Zimo couldn't take his words too seriously.

After specifically naming the Rothschild team, Ning Zimo shrugged:

"From Overture to Lazada, it has been seven years since you followed me and made your own path narrower and narrower. When you finally wanted to return to the right path from 'theft', you chose MySpace and Skype

Related social networks.

But adults always have to pay a corresponding price for doing wrong things. "You have to admit your mistakes and stand firm after being beaten." Although I am not a person who can't rub the sand out of my eyes, but for people like you who often pick up things behind me,

The behavior is still very unsatisfactory.

Therefore, I no longer pretend to be involved in the Skype acquisition. In the past, the follow-up was as you guessed, and I played the role of an ‘actor’ in it. But now I am standing here, and I want to make it clear to you.

I want to formally participate in Skype. Unless the price you give exceeds the 5.6 billion I paid for selling Skype, you will have been waiting for a month and a half to talk in vain! And I will confirm the result today!"

"Impossible, your Emperor Penguin doesn't have that much liquidity at all..."

When Zhang Junhao stood up again, he was too hasty and even slid far away with the chair behind him.

But Ning Zimo didn't say a word before Emperor Penguin's attorney stood up.

"Mr. Rothschild, I am Facebook's attorney from the Southern California Latham & Watkins law firm. The 5.6 billion acquisition that Mr. Ning mentioned will be reached with eBay after you withdraw from the competition because the price is lower than this.

I, on the other hand, vouch for Mr. Ning with the status and reputation of our law firm in Southern California. Every word Mr. Ning says about this acquisition has its corresponding legal effect and the possibility of final completion. Now, choose

The power is in your hands, it depends on how long eBay gives you to respond."

The man smiled and said lightly, "Actually, Mr. Ning's companies are much more powerful than you think."

This was not the first time Dong Qianqian saw Ning Zimo openly participating in negotiations. Many times before, he had put all the key factors on the table.

Only, this time it's very different.

aggressive,

aggressive!

This is the first time Dong Qianqian has seen him negotiate in this way...

Oh, no, this is not a negotiation.

This is Wia through and through!

Although he looked calm and relaxed, his extremely fast speaking speed filled the negotiation room with his anger. And the lawyer who arrived at short notice turned the original "empty city strategy" into a conspiracy.

Emperor penguins don't need Skype, but maybe it's because of that girl, Ning Zimo made this naked choice.

If Rothschild goes further, he must choose an offer higher than US$5.6 billion. But if Rothschild takes a step back, Ning Zimo will win Skype in the name of Facebook chairman.

This is a temporary decision. Although it is just a change of identity from Chairman of Emperor Penguin to Chairman of Facebook, it will complicate this originally simple matter.

As Eric, the attorney at Latham & Watkins, said, the Rothschild team, knowing everything, faced a choice.

Still a naked one,

An obvious choice.

Looking at Rothschild, whose expression was changing, Dong Qianqian, who felt that Ning Zimo had changed a lot, thought that the young man from the rich family opposite had chosen the wrong opponent.

Whether it is the style of well-planned and measured advancement and retreat in the past, or the style of being angry and proud of beauty now.

Rothschild's choice is powerless in the face of these two different styles.

"I buy it!"

With a sigh, Rothschild stood up. His eyes glanced at Ling Shengnan intentionally or unintentionally, and finally he glared at Ning Zimo.

"We snatched MySpace from you, and we can win again with Skype." Rothschild said coldly, "Don't think that your Emperor Penguin can conquer the Internet with just one hand. At least,

In the field of social networking, we can still compete with you!"

"Oh?" Three rising sounds represent curiosity.

"I don't believe that a person like you can't stick to the bottom line of 5.6 billion." Rothschild was not angry but smiled, "I will only offer 5.61 billion U.S. dollars, how can you be embarrassed and add more money?"

"Oh!" The four falling tones represent the dust has settled, "I really don't know how to do it."

Ning Zimo raised his eyebrows and laughed out loud, but looking directly at Rothschild, he was approaching him step by step.

Three steps away, he stood opposite Rothschild.

Suddenly, staring at Rothschild, he raised his arm again.

This action scared the people behind Rothschild so much that they had no time to react. Fortunately, Rothschild himself did not move at all, and Ning Zimo made no further movements.

Glancing in the direction of Ling Shengnan, Ning Zimo smiled brightly:

"Formal introduction, Ling Shengnan is one of my two girlfriends. So, as you can see, I am a scumbag. What are the characteristics of a scumbag? Probably the upper and lower limits are immeasurable, right?"

In front of the angry Rothschild, Ning Zimo stared at the fingertips of his right hand calmly.

There seemed to be something extremely attractive there that kept his attention on his fingertips.

"I won't talk about the upper limit. Of course, what I mean by no lower limit is not something that has been determined. So, since you have decided to confront me head-on, and Skype has offered a price of US$5.61 billion, Ms. Whitman's choice is left.

.”

Having said that, Ning Zimo's eyes were still on his hands, "My no lower limit means another thing, it's about one of my girlfriends. Because, I don't care what my girlfriend does in your team.

, but from the moment she came back to me, if any of you have bad thoughts.

Whether you are in the United States, the United Kingdom, or Qiaocheng East Villa in Shenzhen, China, or anywhere else, they'd better not think about showing up secretly."

Ning Zimo's gaze lifted with the raised fingertips, and he seemed to be looking far away through Rothschild's body.

And his voice echoed throughout the negotiation room, "Because, people who have no lower limit will make people who have no lower limit their ideas become secrets!"

The lifeless sight, coupled with the keyword "Qiaocheng East Villa", made Ning Zimo's sight penetrate Rothschild's eyes like a laser.

The Qiaocheng East Villa was their temporary residence in Shenzhen. All along, they had been silently staring at Ning Zimo in the dark.

Unexpectedly, they all left, and the records that appeared there were clearly checked.

Rothschild felt cold sweat all over his back. This was his first real face-to-face contact with Ning Zimo, but it was also the most complicated time for him.

The numbness of his scalp and the feeling of atrial tremor made him realize that the person in front of him could not be judged by common sense.

And this victory may not be easy after guessing this step!
