Rebirth Turn of the Century

The same commodity has different values ​​in different people's minds.

This is the first premise of the auction.

Another premise is information asymmetry.

I know the painting is fake, but you don't. So I won't charge a high price.

I know that a subway station will be built on this land soon, but you don't know. So I must bid a high price.

I know this land is going to have high voltage wires coming up, but you don't. So I won't overpay.

I also know that the value of these 6000 patents will be very high...

I'd love to know what other people valued them even more!

In this duel, which is not like an auction, but better than an auction, the representatives on the scene only played the role of bidding, and it was the people outside the venue who really made the decision.

…………

A ventilation duct.

Similar to the ventilation ducts in American dramas.

God knows how Cai Feng stuffed his strong body here.

For the sake of the cat, he worked as a waiter for three full months, just to avoid multiple inspections and get here from the huge exhaust fan of the cafe.

Below are three people.

Through the exhaust fan blades, Cai Feng could see the faces of Crazy Qiao and Owen. As for the woman whose back was turned to him, Cai Feng also knew who she was. He was very displeased with this woman who was always against the boss.

At this moment, Cai Feng was surprised.

Surprised by Wen Jing's way of speaking, and the attitude of the two people opposite.

He was one of the first batch of employees who followed the boss, earlier than Wen Jing, and his impression of this woman was still that of a quiet college student eight years ago.

But now, this woman is completely different from 8 years ago.

Especially her words, which seem to be answering the questions of the two men, but she leaves a tail at the end of each sentence, which seems to be leading to some topics.

What surprised Cai Feng even more was that there was nothing unusual about the two people opposite him.

He didn't know that it took Wen Jing 8 years to change her way of speaking.

It seems to be for today, but who knows...

8 years was hard work, but she was a woman, a woman, and she was born to act.

…………

Private cafe.

Crazy Joe and Owen Jacob didn't know that their every move was recorded by the overhead camera.

They looked at Wen Jing, curious about her source of information, but they didn't ask more questions, but looked forward to her next performance.

"The second round is the reciprocal of prime numbers and constants."

"US$2,614,972,128..." Crazy Joe raised his eyebrows and said in an inexplicable tone, "It seems that our richest man is still a math lover."

"No, Steve," Wen Jing said with a smile, "including the first round of Brownian constants, they are actually Google's quotation plan. Compared with Tesla, Google's secrecy methods are obviously not so...

Also, I understand Zhao Song, it is impossible for him to let Google go on messing around to raise the quotation, so it will definitely disrupt their rhythm. "

Owen Jacob nodded clearly. Zhao Song was obviously the same as them. It was impossible to use all the company's cash reserves to buy these patents. If that was the case, everyone would just need more money.

This is a business and psychological game, but the first round of Tesla’s quotation exceeded the highest valuation of experts, so it completely turned into a psychological game.

This is not a game with more money. A corporate dictator like Zhao Song will also face reasonable inquiries from the board of directors after the results come out, let alone them.

Obtaining these 6,000 patents at the lowest cost is the source of the problem. If there are too many, it is better to pay patent fees and wait for them to expire!

"As planned, we need someone to share the burden."

Crazy Joe said, he can only talk, obviously, in this auction, he is the least popular one.

Wen Jing didn't speak, she recognized her role clearly, so she didn't interrupt.

Owen said helplessly: "In the past month, we also contacted BlackBerry and Ericsson many times, but today they launched a competition without saying anything. Obviously, they got something from Nicholas."

Crazy Joe: "We can tell them that we only need to pay a price, and we can give them the right to use these patents!"

Owen: "Nicholas can do it too. Now it seems that he has made certain commitments to the two companies."

Hearing this, Crazy Qiao had a gloomy face and stopped talking.

At this time, Wen Jing said: "Steve, Owen, have you overlooked something?"

"What?"

Wen Jing pointed to a newspaper in front of them: "Blackberry, before participating in the auction, what they did first was to go through the channels of the Canadian government, hoping to use tax credits to participate in the auction without spending a penny until Zhao Song met After their president, they stopped the government lobbying action."

"you mean……"

Wen Jing smiled and said: "If you have friends who can help, I believe that Blackberry will be very willing to use the money from the Maple Leaf Government to share at least 20% of the financial pressure for everyone!"

Crazy Qiao and Owen looked at each other, and picked up their phones to connect.

Above his head was Cai Feng who was gnashing his teeth, holding up a camera to watch their every move.

…………

The first round of this auction, which is unknown to the world, was nearly double the original price of 900 million, which made Google lose its inherent advantage.

Nortel is not a fool. They would rather compensate Google according to the rules than lose a higher price.

As a result, this auction entered a fever pitch immediately.

In the next 42 hours, the highest bid wins!

Two hours later.

After all companies followed up on the quotations, Tesla once again took the lead in attacking.

"$2,614,972,128!"

"F***K"

In the midst of Google Page's call and scolding, Apple's "Rock Alliance" used membership privileges to ask to stop the offer and raise the possibility of cooperating with other teams.

"Damn it, it really came."

Tesla New York branch, Zhao Song said angrily after hanging up the phone.

"Who?" Ding Tao asked.

"blackberries!"

Ding Tao looked at the blond-haired and blue-eyed colleagues around him, and approached Zhao Song and said softly, "It seems that our 'friends' in Washington have also contributed a lot."

Zhao Song grimaced, nodded and said: "The benefits are given to them, but deep down, they still want to cause us some trouble, especially the Maple Leaf people, they are just a bunch of unfamiliar wolf cubs!"

"BOSS."

At this time, Allen came over, and Zhao Song and Ding Tao separated quickly.

Allen didn't see him from time to time, and said: "Just now, Google also proposed the possibility of forming an alliance with Intel. Google has already thought of the name of the alliance, the Mounted Police Alliance."

"Uh~" Reminiscent of Page's call just now, Zhao Song was not surprised, and turned to Ding Tao to order:

"ignition!"

…………

August 5th, 10:00 am.

Because many companies applied, the Nortel auction was suspended.

10:30.

Because of the Olympic Games and all flower growers who regard stability as the overall situation, the world's top three OEM companies all updated their official websites and issued a statement at the same time.

Industrial upgrading!

Shenzhou Group, Wuming Group, and Hammer Group all expressed in their statements that they would negotiate with Tesla on the order shipments for the fourth quarter of 2008.

"F***K"

Page called again and cursed.

INTEL's stable stock price was shocked.

20 minutes later, Tesla announced:

In the case of unsuccessful search for backup solutions, the supply of T-series desktops, PROs, and AIR notebooks will be greatly reduced in the fourth quarter.

Is it reasonable? Not reasonable.

What's even more unreasonable is that amidst the rage, Liao Yingzhu, the female financial devil, was unshackled and caused trouble in the stock market.

When the savior turned into a devil and caused disasters to the world, what happened was that the stock god personally visited, but was turned away; Washington called, but was rejected by Zhao Song!

10:59 minutes.

InTel announced that it will withdraw from the Nortel auction.

At the same time, Liao Yingzhu left the stock market with huge spoils.

At 11:30, BlackBerry joins the 'Rock Union'.

Quotes are open again.

Still Tesla:

"3.14159 billion dollars!"

PI.

To explain, the high point of the plot of this volume is in the island country.

Also, the book should be almost finished.
