Chapter 447: Press Conference

"Zheng Yan, this is not your style. In the past, you were afraid of the media, so why did you hold a press conference with such fanfare this time?"

After the Yahoo matter was resolved, Zheng Yan had already planned to leave San Francisco, but thinking of the tepid elite technology, Zheng Yan stayed behind and asked Larry Ellison to hold a press conference.

"Larry, you have to know that instant messaging software is not office software after all, and it is impossible to advertise it at home. What we can do is to find a way to let more people know, and if we don't take advantage of Steve's participation in the promotion this time, wouldn't we have wasted such a good opportunity?"

"By the way, how many media outlets have arrived now? And Steve, when will he arrive?"

In Zheng Yan's opinion, he himself can be absent from this press conference, but Jobs cannot.

Zheng Yan is well known for not liking to appear in front of the media, so it is said that it is past that he does not attend, but Larry Ellison and Jobs do not have this taboo, and once they are absent, it will inevitably make people have some bad associations.

"We've just arrived at 37 media outlets, and now there may be a few more. As for Steve, it should be almost there, too. When I just called him, he was already out of the house. ”

As soon as Larry Ellison's words fell, he saw Jobs walk in.

"We just talked about you, and since everyone is here, let's go down. ”

In Zheng Yan's mind, although there were not many of the thirty-seven media, it was enough to promote an instant messaging software, so he got up and walked downstairs.

"Click..."

As soon as Zheng Yan and the others appeared, countless flashes lit up, and a large part of them were specially aimed at Zheng Yan. But this is not surprising, since Zheng Yan appeared in the United States, many people have heard of his name, but not many people have seen him.

Although Zheng Yan was a human being for two lifetimes, this was the first time he had encountered such a scene. When Cisco went public, although there were a lot of media, Zheng Yan's reputation at that time was not obvious, and he was not the protagonist of the day, and there were not many media who paid attention to him, but this time it was different.

"Mr. Zheng, what is your purpose in holding this press conference?"

Mr. Zheng, you have always kept a low profile in the past, why are you willing to stand in front of the media in public this time?"

"Mr. Zheng, some people say that you may be the richest man in the world today, do you have anything to say about this?"

“...”

Before Zheng Yan and the others had time to sit down, all kinds of questions came like a tide, and most of them were aimed at Zheng Yan.

"I only found out now that not only are we not as rich as Zheng Yan, but we are not even as popular as him. Larry Ellison said to Jobs with a smile.

"You're right, it's just that our friends don't seem to like this popularity. ”

Larry Ellison and Jobs were relaxed and joked from time to time, but Zheng Yan was uncomfortable. Zheng Yan's purpose was to promote elite technology, not himself, so he said loudly: "Please be quiet. ”

"There are so many media here today that we can't answer every question. We'll pick a few people to ask questions, and if you don't get there, please be quiet, or we'll have to ask the security staff to ask him out. ”

It is rare for Zheng Yan to show up, and there are three people, Larry Ellison, Jobs and Liu Wei, if they are invited out at this time, I am afraid that they will face unemployment when they go back, so everyone is quiet.

"Okay, let me start by talking about the purpose of our press conference today. Just last year, I started a new company with Larry Ellison, Liu Wei, and a friend in Port City called Elite Technology, and this time because of Mr. Jobs. ”

"I hope the next questions don't go off-topic, okay, let's get started..."

Zheng Yan was just about to ask someone to ask a question, when he found that the people in the audience raised their hands.

"Well, ladies first, the first question will be asked by the lady in the red blouse. Zheng Yan pointed to the people in the audience and said.

The person who got the interview was very excited, stood up and said: "Mr. Zheng, as we all know, you have only invested in the past and have never run a company by yourself, what are the considerations for setting up Elite Technology this time? Does this mean that your energy will be transferred to this aspect?"

"You should have two questions, but, as the first

The person who asks the question should be treated as an extra gift. First of all, the first question, the reason for the establishment of Elite Technology is very simple, I have my own laboratory, since I have developed an excellent product, I naturally want to bring it to the market. ”

"As for the second question, all those who know me well know that I am a very lazy person, so I still will not participate in the specific operation of elite technology, and my friend Larry is responsible for this aspect, so naturally there is no problem of diverting energy. ”

"Mr. Zheng..."

"Madam, as I said earlier, there is one question for each person, and you have asked two, and I think the opportunity to ask should be left to others. ”

Despite his reluctance, the man sat down. The consequences of being kicked out are more serious than not being able to ask questions.

"Okay, now comes to the second question. We've just chosen a lady, so let's ask a question. ”

There were a lot of reporters present, and Zheng Yan casually picked another one.

"Hello Mr. Zheng, I'm John from the Wall Street Journal. A few years ago, Mr. Zheng's investment in the crude oil futures market once attracted everyone's attention, and was hailed by some people as the investment god of Wall Street, but later chose to disappear. ”

"Especially in the past two years, I have hardly heard any news related to you, I don't know why Mr. Zheng made this choice, is there a new investment plan for this comeback?"

Because of the success of the first person, this time it is also two problems. However, Zheng Yan didn't bother to care, and said directly: "Everyone knows that I am from China, and we have a saying in Huaxia that the wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it." ”

"The reason why I chose to hide in the first place was because I didn't want to be in the limelight, and I just needed time to spend with my family. As for this comeback, there is no specific investment plan, of course, if I encounter a good investment opportunity, I will not let it go. ”

After answering two questions, Zheng Yan found that all the questions revolved around him, and if he continued, this conference would be meaningless, so he said: "The theme of this conference is elite technology, and I hope the next questions will not go off topic." ”
