Chapter 148: So be it

In a new project, the website will act as a content provider and build an audio website in conjunction with Apple Computer.

It will serve as a companion website for the audio player and provide a service that charges by the number of downloads.

This is the attitude of cooperation!

Wang gradually looked at the document and secretly commented, "I really think that Apple Computer is still one of the giants, and I have to put myself in my own position!"

But after only two pages, his brow furrowed again.

"This PayPal, what is it?"

Cook picked up the file and looked at it, then coughed heavily, as if remembering something.

It wasn't until everyone's eyes in the office were focused on him that he pointed to another white man next to him.

"This gentleman is Elon?? Musk is the founder of PayPal. ”

As for what PayPal is, let him introduce it to you. ”

Musk has always thought that Cook didn't introduce himself because he wanted to trick the young writer first.

But look at the situation in the conference room, is this forgetting to him?

"Alas, maybe I sold the zip and set up an online payment company, which was a complete mistake!"

Musk stood up with a wry smile in his heart and looked at Wang Ji.

Judging from Chong's performance just now, ideals or anything don't work. If you only talk about dreams, how can you talk about best-selling authors?

"Mr. Wang, as a literary website, it has been very successful. Musk looked like he was holding a pearl of wisdom, "But if there is something that needs to be improved, it must be the payment method." ”

Well?

How do I pay?

Wang gradually thought about it, and looked at this young man with a little bucktooth with an interested gaze.

Because he has seen a lot of comments complaining about the inconvenience of payment in the book review area and Twitter topics.

"You continue. Wang gradually handed Tom Apple's plan and listened intently to Musk's speech.

And when Musk saw that Wang was gradually interested, he was instantly shocked.

"I don't know Mr. Wang, have you counted the age of the paying users of the website?" he considered the wording, "According to the comics, games, etc., it can be judged that underage users should account for a large part, right?"

"And what are the payment methods on the website? are visa, know-it-all, but these card issuance methods have age restrictions. ”

"And PayPal will provide online payment services for everyone by binding an age-free debit card to an email. ”

After pondering for a while, Wang couldn't help but nod.

He was thinking not only about minors, but also about a large number of illegal immigrants!

With the further development of technology, there is a trend that computers are getting cheaper and cheaper.

Many second-hand, third-hand computers are cheap enough for illegal immigrants to use.

And these illegal immigrants are not very afraid to openly participate in some entertainment activities because of their status.

Well, it looks like targeted propaganda is needed.

As for hard-earned money, illegal immigration ...

So what does it have to do with yourself?

"Therefore, I suggest that Mr. Wang can choose PayPal in terms of payment method. The more Musk said, the more confident he became, "That way, you can greatly expand the group of paying users." ”

Of course, if you are not sure about the security and convenience of PayPal, you can experiment with the new website with Apple Computer. ”

"I believe that PayPal will give your business wings. ”

And Apple's newly established website?

Wang gradually looked at Cook, and then looked at Musk thoughtfully.

"Mr. Musk, pause for a moment. I'm slightly thirsty and need a cup of coffee. ”

"Mr. Cook, are you together?"

Cook looked up a little confused, and saw Wang gradually tapping his finger on the audio player.

"Oh. He glanced at Musk covertly and nodded meaningfully.

Musk is saying that he is happy and ready to continue to use the mouth cannon method.

But in a blink of an eye, the main leaders of the two companies actually left the conference room.

He looked at the rest of the room a little confused, wondering where he had said something wrong.

In Wang's office, Cook looked at the young Asian man, slowly brewing coffee.

"What, Wang, are you interested in PayPal?"

Wang gradually poured a glass for Cook and smiled.

"What does Apple think about PayPal, and is there a benefit?"

Cook weighed the matter of the audio player and decided to tell the truth.

"10% of the shares, as well as the right of first refusal to increase capital. ”

Wang gradually nodded after hearing this, "$150 million is also stretched thin for Apple's new product development." ”

"I wonder if Apple welcomes partners to join in the issue of PayPal?"

So, two hours later.

Musk was a little dazed and followed Apple's representative out of the office building.

The best-selling author ended up talking to himself about his ideals, about changing the world, and about introducing himself to a partner at Goldman Sachs.

The price is a 15% stake in PayPal, as well as audio websites, paid reading, and support for PayPal.

"So, if you refuse, won't even audio websites use PayPal?" Musk thought a little helplessly.

"What kind of best-selling author is this, it's just a hyena of Wall Street!"

He looked at the business card in his hand, which was clearly marked with Wang Yan, phone number: xxx.

At this time, within a small music production company in New York.

China mac watched as the music partners went in and out, moving their belongings one by one.

He stopped a man and asked aloud, "What's going on, why are they all gone?"

"The company was bought by Apple Computer, and people don't make music, so they want to make audiobooks. ”

"The boss has informed us of the termination, and now everyone is starting to figure out a way out. ”

"What?" China Mac looked surprised, "but I just finished recording a single!"

"Is that a single for you?" another friend mocked, he was already preparing to leave New York anyway, and naturally he was no longer afraid of this kid called China mac.

China Mac was about to beat that guy, but he sighed randomly.

"The music production company is gone, and my future is gone. He walked out of the studio with his eyes blank.

At this time, the mixing master saw him, "China mac, your mixing disc at this time." ”

"Take it and keep a souvenir!"

"Are you going too?" China Mac took the disc.

"Yes, I'm going to Los Angeles. ”

"Huh. China mac laughed weakly.

"I can't distribute it, I can't make money, what's the use of me asking for this disc!"

He threw the disc on the ground and turned away.

And the mixing master looked at his back and sighed, "It's a good seedling!"

He put the disc of the China mac on the recording equipment tray and left the studio with a sigh.

This recording studio will belong to Apple in the future.
