Resource Tycoon Reborn

"Instead of everyone getting along over this domain name, how about the three of us cooperate and jointly invest in this website?" Fang Mingyuan said with an authentic smile.

Is there a future for the paid online music download business? Isn’t this nonsense? In Fan Mingyuan’s previous life, in the second year of the next century, Apple’s iPod digital music player was a great success upon its launch, although it was not

The first portable MP3 player on the market, it has been well received by consumers for its sophisticated design and comfortable feel. Coupled with its exclusive itunes, a digital media mall that operates entirely on the Internet, online payment

The music download system defeated Sony's Walkman series in the international market and became the world's largest portable music player. The launch of several iPod series products in the following years further consolidated Apple's indispensability in the commercial digital music market.

A shaken position. By 2010, iTunes was already the most popular and largest digital music store in the world. Its operating model has benefited millions of people working in the music industry. Apple has benefited from it.

The profits are naturally extremely generous, and you will be lenient when collecting money!

But in China, Fang Mingyuan also understands that for a long time, this paid download model will not need to be thought about! Let alone the first two years of the next century, it will be the first twenty years of the next century.

, I am afraid that the situation of pirated modules on China’s Internet will be difficult to change. It is absolutely impossible to support a website in China with only the download payment model! So this website remains in the hands of Fang Mingyuan. If it stays in China, that is

A tasteless chicken rib may look delicious, but it is actually a bottomless pit of losses. Even if he is a reborn person, he cannot change this.

Of course, it is also a good choice to hand it over to South Korea's Samsung Group for development. But! It is better to hand it over to Steve Jobs. Let Apple do the tossing, and you just have to sit back and wait to get the money!

"Three companies jointly invest and develop?" Ruskin's eyes lit up, but then dimmed. "Mr. Fang, Apple has never entered into joint ventures with other companies!"

"There will always be a first time!" Fang Mingyuan didn't take his words to heart at all and waved his hands. "Mr. Ruskin, if you can't make a decision, then you might as well leave it to Mr. Jobs.

I believe he will seriously consider my suggestion!"

If someone else had said such a thing, the first reaction of Raskin and Rob would definitely be to get angry. Although Jobs is the president and first decision-maker of Apple, he cannot be so naked.

Ignoring them both! After all, they are also senior management personnel below one or several people and above others in Apple! Well, even Apple is not what it used to be. It is no longer the same company it used to be.

An amazing company, but being "scorned" by a Chinese person like this, the two of them felt that they were a bit concerned about their reputation.

Fortunately, the two of them have not forgotten that although the young man in front of them is not old, his achievements have already destined his status to far exceed that of most people in the world! Even if

The two of them must also bow their heads in front of his heaven-shattering "report card"!

"Okay, Mr. Fang, can I hear your specific thoughts? Even if it is a joint venture between the three of us, how will the shares be distributed?" Raskin decided to be patient and listen to what Fang Mingyuan's idea was.

It looks like, at least when I go back to see Steve Jobs, I still have something concrete to report.

"It's very simple. I think the value of this domain name should not be less than 50 million U.S. dollars. Our family plans to use the discounted value of this domain name as an investment, and is required to own no less than one-third of the shares of the future website. The website will be set up in the future.

In the United States, your company sends personnel to be responsible for the operation. As for Mr. Li Jianxi, I think as long as you show sincerity, I think the matter can still be discussed." Fang Mingyuan said confidently. He really talked about this matter.

Li Jianxi has discussed it, and it has to be said that the ancients said that the heroes have the same view, which makes sense. Li Jianxi also proposed building a music website to provide paid download services for mp3 players, thereby ensuring that mp3 players can

There are enough audio sources to choose from, which will further accelerate the speed of MP3 players to seize Sony's Walkman market. However, South Korea's domestic market is really limited. Even if this domain name is handed over to the Samsung Group for operation, the benefits will be

Limited. So Fang Mingyuan set his sights on Apple. He "inadvertently" revealed the news that the domain name was in his hands to Steven Jobs...

"Fifty million US dollars! No less than one-third of the shares!" Raskin and Robb gasped at the same time! Doesn't that mean that the investment amount for this website must be at least 100 million?

Fifty million US dollars! US$150 million is invested in a website, and it is a music website. Such a large sum is rare even today when the Nasdaq index is soaring!

What's even more troublesome for the two of them is that according to Fang Mingyuan's wishes, Samsung Group must also be brought in. In this case, wouldn't it mean that a website would have three shareholders with completely different shares? In this case, although it is said that

In the future, there will be no need for risk capital investment at all, and it will be enough to ensure that the website has a steady supply of funds. However, when it comes to making decisions about the future development of this website, it would be fine if the three parties agree. If not, then wouldn’t it be an international version of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms?

Got it!

However, Fang Mingyuan agreed to set up the website in the United States and have Apple send people to be responsible for the operation. This is a good thing. After all, those closest to the water are first served, and Apple is responsible for the new website, so in many places, he can legitimately help Apple.

A helping hand can also make others unable to say what is wrong with them!

"If a joint venture is required, at least we, Apple, must get 51% of the website shares! If Samsung Group can accept the rest of the difference, we can consider it!" Ruskin said. As an Apple company

As a member, they naturally want to maximize profits for Apple! If it is possible to purchase a domain name without paying a large sum of dollars, then for Apple, which is currently in the period of transformation and new product development, a joint venture with the Fang family is not unacceptable.

!But the absolute controlling rights of the website must be in your own hands! With this, Raskin feels that there is room for discussion!

Fang Mingyuan smiled inwardly. He was not surprised at all by this result. Which of these large companies did not desperately want to get a controlling stake when they formed a joint venture with others?

"If Apple insists on absolute control, our Fang family will cooperate with Samsung Group to build this website!" Fang Mingyuan stood up and said coldly, "Mr. Raskin, you can go and find out.

Among the industries that our family has officially entered, which joint venture with others has given up absolute controlling rights! Even when DreamWorks Film Company and Kingfisher Film Company cooperated with us to shoot movies, our company

It must account for at least 51% of the investment amount!”

After that, Fang Mingyuan turned around and was about to leave. Robert quickly jumped up, stopped in front of the door, and said anxiously: "Mr. Fang, aren't we discussing this? Isn't there a saying in your country that says 'Busy... days...

O...ga,jiu...nine bottom...do you owe me a change?"

"Busy...Tian'ao...Jia, Jiu...Jiudi...change debt." Fang Mingyuan and the other three looked at each other, completely confused as to what the meaningless words that this one suddenly uttered in a weird tone meant.

"That is to say, the seller can put forward his price as high as possible, and the buyer can also lower the price as much as possible." Robber could see that the three people in front of him obviously didn't understand what he meant, so he had to say again with embarrassment.

Speak in English.

Damn it! Isn’t that just asking for a high price and paying back on the spot? Fang Mingyuan slapped his forehead.

"Mr. Fang, if you are dissatisfied with our proposal, we can sit down and discuss it carefully. There is always a chance to reach a consensus acceptable to both parties." Ruskin also secretly wiped a cold sweat.

. He also didn’t expect that this person would break up if they disagreed. He just proposed that Apple wanted to get the absolute controlling interest in the website, and this person actually didn’t intend to talk anymore.

!Since he came to work at Apple, he has experienced countless negotiations between companies. He has never encountered many cases like Fang Mingyuan's.

However... he also had to admit that Fang Mingyuan indeed occupies a favorable position now!

This domain name is a must for Apple. Without it, many of Steve Jobs' plans would probably be compromised. Although there are other ways to remedy the situation, the effect would also be greatly compromised.

!Moreover, the other party seems to be in no rush to sell this domain name, and with the Samsung Group interfering with the situation, the other party is even more confident.

More importantly, if Fang Mingyuan just took office and walked away, with the arrogance of young people, they might have offended Fang Mingyuan! And the messy consequences of offending Fang Mingyuan would be Ruskin.

I don’t know for a moment! But one thing is certain. If Apple wants to do soft advertising in movies invested by Hong Kong Kumho Film Group in the future, I’m afraid it won’t be as smooth as it is now!

The person in front of me is the real decision-maker and core of Hong Kong Kumho Film Group!

This result is unacceptable to Apple!
