Chapter 227 The furious Guo Shouyun

"Please sit down!"

"thanks!"

After being polite, Barbey Douglas took out a document from his briefcase and handed it to Guo Shouyun after he sat down.

"what is this?"

"Aren't you going to buy other utilities, these are lists!"

"So fast?" Guo Shouyun said in surprise.

"I've been in the energy and utilities industry for most of my life and have connections with major shareholders and managers of most companies in the same industry in the United States. I don't know how much the year-long California energy crisis has done to their businesses. Accurate data, but I also have a rough idea in my mind. Also, I can roughly guess how likely those companies are to sell. So it’s not difficult to come up with an M&A catalog.”

Guo Shouyun nodded in agreement, looked at the information in his hand, and then looked at the gray-haired old man on the opposite side. I couldn't help but sighed to myself: How correct the decision to leave the other party was at the beginning!

"There is an old man in a family, if there is a treasure", no matter where it is, in most cases it is a famous saying!

After flipping through the information in his hand and reading the brief introduction, Guo Shouyun picked up a pen and drew on it. After scrutinizing it, I felt that there was no problem, and returned the information.

"I want to buy these companies."

"Oregon Electric & Gas, Seattle Electric, Legend Gas...!"

There are a total of seven companies drawn by Guo Shouyun, corresponding to the six states of Oregon, Washington, Nevada, Ihoda, Utah, and Arizona. Two of them: Seattle Power and Legend Gas are also located in Washington, respectively. is the first and second largest electric and natural gas utility in the state. The combined population of the seven states is close to 2ooo million. Although only half of California's, it would take at least $300 million to win the largest electric and natural gas companies in these states.

After reading it, Barbey Douglas nodded, "In the current situation, it is not difficult to acquire them. But you must be clear that once the acquisition is completed, their debts will overwhelm Pan Pacific. If the California energy crisis If it doesn't end, the monthly loss will exceed 800 million US dollars. Are you sure you can withstand such financial pressure?"

"Don't worry, since I dare to do it, I can naturally bear it!" Guo Shouyun said to himself.

The old and deep stared at the young man opposite for a moment, but did not show any wavering or hesitation, Barbey Douglas nodded and said: "In this case, the acquisition is left to me. I promise. The acquisition of seven companies will be completed at the most reasonable price."

"I believe in your ability. In addition, I don't mind spending a little more money. But it must be fast. Otherwise, it may not be easy to think about such a large-scale acquisition of a utility company when the California energy crisis is over." Guo Shouyun emphasized road.

Glancing at him, "You are really special. When others are afraid of the utility company, you are so active in participating in it."

Guo Shouyun smiled, "The energy crisis in California is seen by others as a disaster that they want to escape, but it is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in my opinion. Just seize this opportunity, integrate companies of the same type as much as possible, and occupy a wider area. market, then when the crisis is over, what I get will be a brighter future.”

Barbey Douglas nodded in agreement, "In general, this idea is correct, but the premise is that you have sufficient capital reserves. Otherwise, even if you realize the opportunity, you will not be able to grasp it. You will even be dragged down by it. ."

"I have enough money ready. Also, if you have enough energy. All U.S. utilities can be on our takeover list."

Barbey Douglas' pupils shrank, and after a long time he said: "Although I know that the next question will involve some secrets, I can't help but ask: Did your Thunder Fund make money from gold speculation? How much?"

Everyone who knows Guo Shouyun knows that he has made a lot of money from speculation in gold futures, but no one knows how much he has made.

"You will know when the Thunder Fund has been established for a year and announces its results." Guo Shouyun smiled.

This kind of confidential matter, he will not tell anyone except people he really trusts.

After sighing in disappointment, Barbey Douglas shrugged. He had expected this outcome.

"By the way, I still have a fund in my hand, can I give it to Thunder for operation?"

"Of course. But now we're not accepting clients with funds under $100,000!"

"It's okay, I put in $2ooo!"

"Then Thunder is very honored to be able to cooperate with you!" Guo Shouyun said with a smile.

Barbey Douglas nodded, "The money will be credited to the Thunder's account soon. Now, I'm going to work on this."

He raised his hand to signal the document in his hand, and after Guo Shouyun responded, he walked out.

After sending Barbey Douglas away, Guo Shouyun, who was just about to return to the office, suddenly rang his phone in his pocket.

"Hey, Tim, what's the matter? . . . what?"

The news on the phone made Guo Shouyun suddenly change color, "I see, I'll go over immediately!"

After hanging up the phone, Guo Shouyun turned to go out with anger in his eyes.

"boss…?"

"Come on, follow me to LinkedIn!"

After noticing the heaviness on Guo Shouyun's face, Wendy felt a **** in her heart and quickly followed.

The Hills Tower in Silicon Valley, where LinkedIn is headquartered. When Guo Shouyun walked in, he could already feel the subtle atmosphere in the company.

After striding into the elevator to the large conference room on the top floor, LinkedIn CEO Tim George, Chief Financial Officer David Verne, Chief Human Resources Officer Frank Arnell, Chief Risk Officer John Belden, Chief Technical Officer, his partner Martin Alexander. And the heads of various departments such as LinkedIn News, LinkedIn Agency, LinkedIn Fortune Network, and LinkedIn Business Unit are all waiting for him here.

"boss!"

"Boss!"

Looking at Guo Shouyun with a gloomy expression and growing power, the senior officials of LinkedIn were full of respect. Although the big boss who founded LinkedIn does not come to the company very often, he has long guided the rapid development of LinkedIn through a visionary development strategy. In the past year and a half, LinkedIn has become the world's largest professional social networking site involving 13 countries around the world, with more than 2500,000 registered users.

"Where's the stuff?"

Guo Shouyun, who walked to the center of the conference room, did not sit down and asked directly.

Tim George turned on the center projector, and soon the front page of Yahoo News appeared on the screen.

"LinkedIn massive data breach, site security questionable!"

The bold and enlarged font is so dazzling in Guo Shouyun's view. No one knows better than him how badly user data leaks can affect Internet companies. Looking at Facebook's hundreds of billions of assets, after being exposed to user data leaks, Zucker Berg, the chairman and CEO, has to personally Come forward and apologize. Not to mention now. If this incident is not handled properly and users lose their trust, LinkedIn will end up going bankrupt.

At this moment, watching these news, Guo Shouyun's heart was full of anger. But he also knew that anger was useless at times like this. The key was to come up with a solution to the problem.

"Who can tell me how the customer information in the LinkedIn database got online?" Guo Shouyun said coldly after taking a deep breath and suppressing the anger in his heart.

At this time, Tim George knew that as the CEO, he was responsible at this time.

"Boss, it's Suri Windrow, she is the deputy director of the data management department! Taking advantage of her position, I stole the chat records of 127 users, as well as emails, phone numbers and other information from the company's database."

"Suri... Windrow?"

"Yes!"

Seeing Guo Shouyun's cold as a knife, his eyes full of anger, Tim George nodded numbly. He never knew that the big Boss could put so much pressure on people when he caught fire.

"boom…!"

Just as Tim George's thoughts fell, a huge voice suddenly sounded beside him, making his heart skip a beat, as if he heard the sound of the table falling apart.

It wasn't just him~www.wuxiaspot.com~ everyone around was startled by the sudden sound. But seeing Guo Shouyun's fist on the table, everyone froze like a cicada.

"I used to say that the company is not allowed to fall in love. You are not allowed to bring your girlfriend or the other half into the company. Do you all take my words on deaf ears?" Chief Human Resources Officer, should you give me an explanation?"

Looking at Guo Shouyun's gloomy expression and oppressive eyes, Frank Arnell knew in his heart that if he could not come up with an answer that satisfies the other party, his fate would not be good.

"Boss, it was Martin who found me at the beginning, hoping to let Suri Windrow join the company. Considering that he is the founder and veteran of the company, I agreed!"

"You agree? What about your principles and limits?"

"I…!"

After waving to interrupt him, "Secretary of Defense Joe Johnson!"

"boss!"

A large black man in uniform shrank his head and whispered.

"I spend millions of dollars in your security department every year, give you high salaries, and give you the best equipment. Now you will give me such an answer sheet?"

"Boss, we're sorry!"

"Sorry? Sorry if it's useful, what do the police and the army do!" After a cold sarcasm, Guo Shouyun said directly: "Now I announce three appointments: the removal of Frank Arnell from the post of chief human resources officer of LinkedIn, Remove Martin Alexander from the post of Chief Technology Officer of LinkedIn and remove Joe Johnson from the post of Minister of Security. The above three positions are temporarily held by the deputy of the three departments. In addition, Tim George is poorly supervised as the company's CEO, and half of the company's options are reduced ."
