Chapter 270: Influence
Ellison was refreshed, and Su Mu was also very cheerful, and directly told him not to sell it, blocking the other party's idea of continuing to talk.
Something similar happened at the end of last year during the establishment of the CNC League at Harvard University, when Ellison tried to buy the patent for hypertext links from Su Mu, and the bid was so high that it was jaw-dropping, but Su Mu still refused, and the same is true today, but this seemingly reasonable offer is actually not reasonable.
Late bloomer playboy Larry Ellison is undoubtedly a smart man, Su Mu is not a fool, as he said, now the only thing that limits the prospects of the OO browser market is the number of netizens, and he is confident that he can do it without infringing on his company's patents under the premise that other entrepreneurs have no way out, and the core patents are firmly held in his hands, and there is no authorization for others at present, and the idea of raising tigers is a problem.
Even if the patent is bypassed, it will be a long time before it happens, and there will be time to perfect the browser and gain market share.
It is not convenient to communicate the Internet simply through the CNC browser, he is the actual controller of the CNC browser, last year it was stipulated that Su Mu was not allowed to make money with this original browser, Su Mu agreed, and now it is possible to slow down the optimization and update of it, and the main OO browser is recommended.
Most of the time, netizens want to easily get the information they want from the Internet, they can't do without the help of search engine technology, which means that there is no lack of market, only lack of time to cultivate a larger market, and it is not in the interest of Su Mu to cash out it now.
Several reporters who tried to interview Su Mu were speechless after hearing the conversation between the two, thinking that when Su Mu was standing on the stage, he said that it took five months to develop it, although he didn't say how much money was drawn during the period, but it certainly wouldn't be too much, and it was only a long time before someone came to the door with 120 million US dollars, you must know that the program is obviously not really open to the public, and the money seems to be too easy to make.
Envy and jealousy are certain, and they all thought that with this little episode, there would be no lack of highlights in the report......
After eating a closed door again, Ellison couldn't say it, he felt that his offer was already very high, at least it should be worth letting Su Mu talk to him, sighed and asked, "Do you have any prejudice or misunderstanding about me?"
I am known for my generosity in doing business, whether it is to treat the company's employees or partners, give me an offer that satisfies you, or sell me some shares, I will seriously consider it. ”
Tonight was really amazed, and Ellison was very interested in OO, otherwise he would not have quoted such a high price, he is a qualified businessman, but also a self-centered megalomaniac, and there are many people who call him a "Inglourious Bastard".
In Ellison's opinion, since it is a company, it should have a value, as long as it is higher than the actual value, it can be sold, and after Oracle went public, he successively cashed out a lot of money for fun.
From himself to others, he thinks that Su Mu must be the same.
If you don't "eavesdrop" on the news about the future world, and don't know that you are walking on a broad road to success, if Su Mu is just like ordinary people, and has no confidence in the future of the Internet, maybe he will grit his teeth and be ruthless, and he will cash out part of the pocket first.
Of course, even if he is willing to sell, he will definitely sell to Microsoft, which will help his company a lot, instead of Ellison, who will only drag his feet after becoming a shareholder and will not help the development of OO, there is only "I" in his words, on behalf of him personally, to exclude Oracle Company, with Su Mu's current situation that he is not short of money, there is no need to do that thing to kill chickens and eggs, even if he fails in the future, he will not regret it, it is worth his gamble.
Seeing that Ellison was still not giving up, Su Mu shrugged his shoulders and smiled: "I know very well that although the employees of your company are a little tired and often work overtime until late at night, their benefits are much higher than those of my company.
Sir, I don't mean anything against you, in fact I don't plan to accept any external funds for the time being, maybe you don't know, I just sold a stake in a supermarket that I created this year, and I won't be short of money for at least five years. If I really have the idea of participating in the shares, I will contact you in advance when the IPO is time?"
Having said that, Ellison couldn't use a knife to put a knife on Su Mu's neck and let him sell it to himself, since he didn't sell it to others, this more or less gave him a little psychological comfort, reached out and took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Su Mu, telling him: "It's a pity, remember to contact me when the time comes, the bid will only be higher than others, not less than others, provided that your company develops smoothly." ”
can make this arrogant maniac take out his business card to make friends, and many guests around who saw this scene showed strange expressions of ghosts, which shows that Ellison values Su Mu, maybe he has treated Su Mu, who has recently been in the limelight in Silicon Valley, as a businessman of equal status, which is very rare.
In any case, Galaxy and Sumu entered the eyes of more people, and their status in Silicon Valley suddenly rose a lot and began to have influence......
The days were too boring, and most of the guests chose to stay for the party, and Su Mu, as the host, intended to make friends with these guests, and after handing out fifty business cards, he asked his assistant Alan to help him get some more.
There are many business cards sent out, and there are many business cards received, he can clearly perceive the change in people's attitudes towards him, and now his strength is not weak, at least stronger than the vast majority of people present, and the respect he receives is directly proportional to his strength, how can he be discriminated against like ordinary Chinese, and many people also try to hug Su Mu's thighs.
Ellison failed to do so, and other investors who tried to contact Sumu were also disappointed, there was no way, who made Sumu not short of money.
Carrefour has not put the money into Su Mu's account, the private angel investment department that has just been established is similar to the furnishings, and now that there are funds to invest, it seems that it is time to learn from Gates, Ellison and others who took the lead in getting rich, to invest in potential small and medium-sized enterprises, and it is better to invest in companies in their own circles if they are not familiar with other industries.
Among those entrepreneurs who are trying to get help through Su Mu, there are really a few good entrepreneurial ideas, such as the one who is standing in front of Su Mu, who has just explained to him about video processing technology and computer animation technology, and Su Mu, who is following Jobs' movements, knows that Jobs has entered the field of computer animation development since leaving Apple.
Considering that watching TV and playing games on the computer in the future, this field seems to have a good market prospect, and some people want to ask him to invest in his own e-book company, which also attracted Su Mu's attention......
