When Daniel came back with a happy face, Chen Geng glanced at the kid and said to Steve Ballmer with a smile: "Steve, what do you see on Daniel's face?"

"What?" asked Steve Ballmer, cooperatively.

"Spring. ”

"Hahaha......"

Steve Ballmer burst out laughing!

Although the poor American people have not heard the famous phrase "spring has arrived, everything has recovered, and the animals have come to estrus again", but what is the situation in spring, Americans are actually old drivers.

Only the innocent Daniel looked at his boss and the big boss who were laughing, and his face was confused: What's the situation? Can anyone tell me what the situation is?

Fortunately, Steve Ballmer is really a very good leader, and he is a little restrained Daniel, and he laughs, "How's it going? Daniel, what does your little girlfriend say?"

Hearing this, Daniel hurriedly suppressed his doubts in his heart and replied, "She's happy, huh...... She said she would take the opportunity to refine her ideas and come up with a plan that would satisfy you. ”

Steve Ballmer and Chen Geng glanced at each other, and the two nodded imperceptibly: Daniel has a little girlfriend, which is indeed very good.

However, both of them tacitly did not continue to elaborate on this issue, but continued the previous topic: "Steve, do you have any thoughts on this promotion?"

"Boss, don't kid me," Steve Ballmer said with a wry smile, "You know, I can't keep up with your thinking." ”

"Haha...... Okay," Chen Geng smiled when Steve Ballmer said this, and he nodded, "I do have an idea, you, yaho! you know?"

"Boss, I'm also a person in the Internet industry, don't treat me as a wild man who doesn't know anything, okay?" Steve Ballmer made an exaggerated expression: "That's yaho!, now the world's most well-known search engine, just say that the market share in the search engine market has exceeded 80%, everyone thinks that the search engine is an untapped Internet gold mine, and it's still your business, how could I not know?"

Chen Geng was a little embarrassed: "Hehe......"

As for why it is an "untapped Internet gold mine" instead of an "Internet gold mine", it is because so far, everyone is still confused about how to make money from search engines, whether it is yaho!, Infoseek, Excite, Lycos, although they all provide some paid services, but discerning people can see that these search engines cannot achieve profitability only by relying on the existing model.

It's embarrassing to do this, everyone knows that there is a huge gold mine in it, but how can this gold mine be dug up for gold?

It was Steve Ballmer, who was a little curious: "Boss, does your idea have anything to do with yaho!?"

"It does have a relationship," Chen Geng nodded: "To be precise, let eBay cooperate with Yaho!." ”

"How do you work together?"

Steve Ballmer does not exclude eBay from cooperating with Yaho!, only saying that everyone is the same boss's business, and if there is a chance, they should cooperate more, but Steve Ballmer really can't understand how eBay should cooperate with Yaho!?

Chen Geng didn't sell it: "For example, when eBay's 'online shopping carnival' enters the publicity period, can eBay reach a half-month or 20-day agreement with Yaho!...... Anyway, you can discuss the time specifically...... The method of this cooperation is that any user who uses the search service provided by Yaho! will display the first piece of information about eBay's 'online shopping carnival'.

If you are more specific, for example, if you are a user in North America, as long as you are an Internet user in North America, when they visit yaho!, they can use the Internet search service provided by yaho!, this information can be automatically displayed. ”

Steve Ballmer's eyes lit up suddenly: "Huh?

He is well aware that Yaho! has more than 20 million daily visitors, which means that if the two sides can really reach such a cooperation, it means that at least theoretically, eBay can put the content of its own "online shopping carnival" to 20 million Internet users.

That's a great efficiency!

Well, even in North America, yaho! should have at least 12 million daily searches, right?
