Chapter 757: The Biggest Bubble

Wu Tao couldn't help but laugh.

This white-skinned pig actually ran in front of himself to show his superiority, and it seems that he really didn't get any benefit in front of Molly just now.

Also, thinking that Molly facing him and facing herself are completely different performances, which can be seen.

However, as soon as Wu Tao heard that he was proud that he could mobilize tens of billions of dollars, he couldn't help but feel moved.

He looked at Molly and said, "By the way, Mr. Anderson of Netscape, did you contact me for me?"

"Huh?" Molly didn't react for a moment.

was snatched up by Wu Tao and said: "I'm not asking you to help me introduce Anderson and ask him to give us a chance to invest in the Apocalypse no matter what." If AOL can afford the price, Tianqi Investment can also afford it. ”

After such a distraction, Molly also understood, and said worriedly with a frown: "But AOL is determined to win Netscape, they are so wealthy, the strength of Apocalypse Investment may be ......."

"You're right. Wu Tao said angrily: "If it weren't for the limited capital of Tianqi Investment, I would like to directly acquire AOL! As a high-quality asset in the Internet industry, buying it is earning!"

After a pause, Wu Tao pondered and added: "No, I'll think of a way......

Seeing Wu Tao's embarrassment due to lack of capital, Howard couldn't help but say even more proudly: "Haha, only we at Berkshire can afford to buy a behemoth like AOL! Even if it is a company as strong as Netscape, you can't afford it! Therefore, I advise you not to be delusional." ”

"I don't think so, Howard. Wu Tao said without showing weakness: "If there is capital to acquire their institutions or companies, I am not as optimistic about them as I am!

“...... It's okay to lose anyway, but if you win, the stock price will rise, and the assets will double. ”

Howard looked at Wu Tao's triumphant strength, and then looked at Molly's admiring little eyes, and couldn't help but say proudly: "Wu, now I am considering officially competing for this merger and acquisition on behalf of Berkshire, so you have no chance!"

The Ferrari roared its engine and went away.

Molly smiled across the fence and asked, "You say, will he believe it?"

"I won't believe it now!" Wu Tao said confidently, "But if we really get in touch with Mr. Anderson and put on a posture of negotiation, then maybe it will be possible." ”

"You're so bad, Wu!" Molly sneered.

Wu Tao spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders, "I was also forced." ”

That innocent expression drew a trembling smile from Molly.

That night, Ms. Wu brought back a stack of documents from the company about the relationship between Jeff Hawkins' Palm and his old employer, 3Com.

It turned out that three years ago, Palm's PDA products finally shined in the market after several twists and turns. As a result, due to poor management, the capital chain was broken, so he had to accept the merger and acquisition of a company called US Robotics.

Subsequently, it was acquired by US Robotics and now 3Com.

3Com is engaged in Internet hardware, and has already occupied a large market share in the industry. Therefore, not enough attention is paid to the PDA itself.

Since the acquisition of Palm's OS, there has been little development and advancement.

However, 3Com will also not give up such a piece of fat as PDA. After all, no one is afraid of money.

So when Jeff Hawkins offered to buy back shares from 3Com and wanted to be independent, he was decisively rejected.

However, before Wu Tao appeared, Jeff's decision to go had been decided.

So he thought about starting a new company with Donna Dubinsky.

Naturally, the new company opened by the two can no longer do PDA, and coincidentally, they set their sights on mobile phones.

This coincides with Wu Tao's plan.

After reading the information, Wu Yingying said worriedly: "Boss, Palm Company is in turmoil now, do we have to be particularly cautious when cooperating with them?"

Wu Tao didn't take Wu Yingying's reminder to heart, "In fact, the turmoil of the other company is secondary, the key is whether PalmOS is suitable for Lotus mobile phone products, and whether it can form part of the competitiveness of our mobile phone products!"

“...... If we decide to adopt PalmOS in the future, then this turmoil is an opportunity for us!"

Qin Xiaoxiao was puzzled: "Boss, are you planning to work with Jeff and them on smartphones?"

Wu Tao pretended to shake his head mysteriously.

"What could that be?" Qin Xiaoxiao was suddenly confused, and looked at Wu Yingying, but the other party was also puzzled and couldn't guess.

At this moment, Molly, who had changed into a baggy T-shirt and denim shorts, walked in and said, "Your boss, I guess you want to separate Palm and take a stake." ”

Women are too smart, and it really makes men feel very unfulfilled.

So Wu Tao inevitably said angrily: "If you eavesdrop on our trade secrets like this again, be careful that we sue you." ”

Molly sat down next to him, and touched him with her snow-white long legs and said, "Don't forget, Jeff of Palm Company, I helped introduce him." Besides, can I not know what kind of calculation you want to make? Besides, can AOL deceive Howard, don't you need my cooperation?"

Can't be provoked, can't be provoked.

Wu Tao had no choice but to smile, "Molly, you are simply too smart. I now realize that you are not only smart, but also so beautiful, you are simply a combination of Venus, the goddess of love, and Athena, the goddess of wisdom. ”

Molly opened victoriously, leaning up on her slender and white neck, with an extraordinary look of pride.

But Wu Yingying almost didn't spit it out when she heard this. This sycophant is too much!

However, Qin Xiaoxiao was particularly attentive, "Boss, do we want to cooperate with AOL? This is a strong Internet media company in the United States, I am afraid it may not take us seriously." ”

Molly took over and said, "This is what I find strange, AOL is in full swing now, why are you sure that people will decline in the future? ”

Wu Tao said leisurely: "Since the development of the Internet industry, the bubble theory has been clamoring for a long time. Is there a bubble at all?"

The woman looked confused.

"If you want me to say, of course there is!" Wu Tao asked himself: "And this AOL is probably the biggest one in this bubble!"

Molly looked suspicious, AOL was so angry that she couldn't see any bubbles at all.

Wu Tao wrenched his fingers and explained: "Last year, AOL spent $300 million to acquire ICQ, how is ICQ doing now? This fully exposes AOL's weakness in Internet operations. ”

“...... And now they're trying to buy Netscape!"

“...... I admit that Netscape was prosperous at the beginning, but at that time, Microsoft's rival had not yet risen. Now, how can it be good that the browser developed by Netscape is regarded as a competitor by Microsoft?"

“...... As a result, Netscape has made its own cross-platform browser open source and free, which is a poor donkey skill, and there is no trick at all. And such a rotten peach, falling into the hands of AOL, wants to become fragrant, how easy is it?"
