Chapter 119: Be Yourself
This is the first time Liu Xiao has come to Chenhan Investment Group to meet Boss Xiong, but he is not in the mood to appreciate Chenhan's splendid mansion at the moment, so he went directly to Boss Xiong's president's office when he came in.
"Sit!" Boss Xiong saw Liu Xiao come in, and left his desk.
Liu Xiao ran over to take a glass of water and drank it all, "What does Zhang Chunsheng mean at the moment?"
"He hasn't made a decision yet!" Boss Xiong motioned for Liu Xiao to sit down first, "However, we only spent 200 million yuan on our joint venture acquisition of Soft Alliance, and Huawei now directly takes 400 million yuan to buy the seventy percent of the shares from Zhang Chunsheng." I made 200 million yuan in a week, I think Lao Zhang is a little moved!"
Liu Xiao frowned, he had made a lot of calculations at the time, but he missed this point, Zhang Chunsheng was a businessman after all, and he couldn't afford to be unprofitable, so he should have agreed with him at that time that he would not sell the soft alliance to a company of the same nature, thinking of this, where could Liu Xiao sit still, he turned back and forth in the room a few times, and said: "How could I be dizzy at that time, and I thought of going to him!"
"Don't worry!" Boss Xiong got up and held down Liu Xiao, "Isn't he still undecided, you tell me about Huawei first, aren't they making communication equipment, how could they think of buying SoftAlliance?"
Liu Xiao exhaled, sat down, and said: "Warwick's entry into the security field is also a recent thing, this morning, we just met with them once, the project of Haicheng Mobile Company, Huawei's plan lost to us." I didn't expect their response to be so swift, and in just a few hours, Warwick made such a big acquisition decision. ”
"That's the case!" Boss Xiong nodded, "In other words, if we reject Huawei's acquisition intention, then Huawei will be a competitor of Soft Alliance in the future?"
"That's right!" Liu Xiao nodded, "I'm also studying countermeasures now, to see how to deal with Huawei's competitive pressure, although they used to make communication equipment, but according to my observation today, they also have very good technical reserves in the field of security, and he will become the biggest competitor of SoftAlliance in the domestic market!"
"Then what do you mean?" Boss Xiong looked at Liu Xiao, "What are your plans?"
"Of course I can't let the Soft Alliance be swallowed up by Hua Wei!" Liu Xiao's fists were squeezed together, "At that time, Long Izumo handed over the acquisition of the Soft Alliance to me, just hoping to keep this bit of blood and blood of the Soft Alliance, and now it's only a few days of work, if I lose the Soft Alliance, then what face do I have to face him!"
"It's common to merge in the mall, it's normal, why do you think so?" Boss Xiong was a little puzzled, "What's more, Huawei has strong financial resources and is well-known at home and abroad, if the soft alliance merges with him, it can be regarded as a strong alliance, why ......"
"This is the reason, but things are often not so simple!" Liu Xiao was very depressed and didn't know how to explain this!
"Don't worry, say it slowly!" Boss Xiong smiled, "Actually, I'm also very strange, you kid used to be loose, this time no one urged you, you dominate the position of director of the soft alliance, and there is no meaning of prevarication." ”
Liu Xiao shook his head, "What about this, Brother Xiong, you must remember that I was framed before!"
Boss Xiong nodded, a little surprised, "Does it have anything to do with this?"
"In fact, the person who framed me was the previous director of operations of the soft alliance, and I joined the soft alliance purely to find out this person!"
Boss Xiong was surprised," you continued. ”
"Later, you must have heard a little about it, these people set a trap for me, but I saw through it, and finally it was wiped out, Long Izumo, chairman of the soft alliance, was very sad, so he made the decision to sell the soft alliance. ”
Boss Xiong continued to nod, "Then you can be regarded as revenge." ”
Liu Xiao sighed, "I originally planned to pull out the person who framed me and then retreat, but I didn't expect the matter to be so serious, the entire high-level of the Soft Alliance was involved, and the operation of the Soft Alliance was paralyzed for a while. ”
Boss Xiong was puzzled, and looked at Liu Xiao in confusion, this is not the reason why you stayed to support the operation of the soft alliance, you should hate the soft alliance.
"If Brother Xiong has any impression, you must still remember the asteroid I showed you at the planetarium last time!" Liu Xiao paused, "The spiritual charm of a great hacker can influence many people and make many people follow in his footsteps, Xiao Xiong is an example!
"Ahh
Liu Xiao smiled bitterly, "Many of the hackers planted in this time by the soft alliance were actually my idols, before leaving school, I have always regarded the soft alliance as my spiritual temple, she is the symbol of the spirit of Chinese hackers, and I have always worked towards this coordinate." But after I got close to my goal, I found that she was not what I imagined at all, and the spiritual belief in my heart suddenly collapsed, I don't know if Brother Xiong can understand my mood at that time?"
Boss Xiong nodded, he was also young, and he also chased his idol, as a person who came over, Boss Xiong was deeply touched, in fact, when many people were young, they were not doing themselves, but taking the path of others, only when they approached their idols or after their idol dreams were shattered, they were truly themselves.
"There are many people like me in China, they worship the soft alliance, take the soft alliance as their own goal, they believe in the soft alliance's 'open, free, shared, equal' Chinese hacker spirit, the reason why I did not leave the soft alliance is that I don't want to give up my spiritual beliefs, and I don't want to disappoint those who believe in the soft alliance!" Liu Xiao gritted his teeth, "So, I agreed to Long Izumo's request to take over the soft alliance and rebuild the spirit of Chinese hackers." These days, I have been actively operating the acquisition plan of the soft alliance, and I have tried every means to re-knead the loose soft alliance together, although facing the dilemma of internal and external troubles, I have never thought of giving up. For the first time in more than 20 years, I feel like I've found my way in life, and I've never been so focused and persistent in doing something as I am now. I want to use my actions to tell everyone that there is another spirit in the body of Chinese hackers, where they fall, they will get up from there, faith can fall to the ground, but the backbone of Chinese hackers will never collapse!"
Boss Xiong exhaled a long breath, Liu Xiao's words actually moved him a little, no wonder Liu Xiao has changed a lot recently, he can be regarded as after the idol dream was shattered, he began to find himself, Boss Xiong sighed for a moment, "I think I understand your thoughts!"
Liu Xiao walked to the back of the chair, a little silent, and said: "It's a pity that my own financial resources are limited, and my heart is higher than the sky, but I have to be controlled by others everywhere!"
Boss Xiong patted Liu Xiao on the shoulder, "There are really not many young people who can have firm ideas like you, don't worry, I will support you!" Boss Xiong paused, and remembered his previous question, "But I'm still very puzzled, why are you so opposed to the merger with Huawei, Lao Zhang and I have no foundation in the field of security, if you put the soft alliance on Huawei's platform, wouldn't it be more conducive to her development?"
"It's different!" Liu Xiao shook his head, "Because there is no spirit of Chinese hackers in Huawei's brand!", after Liu Xiao finished speaking, he briefly talked about why Long Izumo founded the Soft Alliance in the first place, and how the Soft Alliance developed and grew, and finally said: "With the open attitude of the Soft Alliance, Huawei will not be able to do it! Besides, Huawei acquired the Soft Alliance, not for the sake of the brand of the Soft Alliance, but to unify the market, and they have become accustomed to being above the market. ”
Seeing that Boss Xiong didn't understand a little, Liu Xiao said the helplessness of Mr. Chen of Shanghai City Mobile earlier.
"It turns out that Hua Wei wants this!" Boss Xiong stood up, paced twice in a deep groan, and said: "Don't worry, although my Chenhan Group is not as wealthy as Hua Wei, but I am also afraid of him, if Huawei is to monopolize the market and buy the soft alliance, then I, Chen Han, will be the first to not agree! What you think in your heart, do what you want, Lao Zhang, I will take care of it!" Boss Xiong squeezed Liu Xiao's shoulders vigorously, " I used to have some misunderstandings about you, I think the reason why you brought the Zhang family to buy the soft alliance was to pat your father-in-law's ass, and actively take care of the soft alliance in order to win some impression points in front of him, it seems that I underestimated you. In order to make up for this mistake of mine, I will make a guarantee to you, from this moment on, the soft alliance is yours, as long as you don't nod, no one will want to hit him!"
Liu Xiao stood up, looked at Boss Xiong, and said word by word: "Even if you make other choices out of business considerations, I will not resent you." But if you are willing to trust me to hand over the soft alliance, I will never let you down!"
"Don't be so serious!" Boss Xiong patted Liu Xiao's shoulder with a smile, "Relax, sit! You kid is serious, it's really a little scary!"
Liu Xiao didn't sit down, but said, "I have one more thing to say!"
"Sit down, sit down!" Boss Xiong pressed Liu Xiao down.
"Since sooner or later we have to meet with Huawei, it is better for us to take the initiative, I hope that the group can hold a press conference three days later, first, to officially announce the acquisition of the soft alliance and the injection of a large amount of funds, in order to stabilize the morale of the military, and second, I want to announce the future development direction of the soft alliance, and the soft alliance now needs a clear development idea. Liu Xiao paused, "This development direction will be related to whether the soft alliance can defeat Huawei's competition in the future!"
Boss Xiong just pondered for a moment, and then said: "Since the soft alliance is up to you, you have decided, and we will cooperate! I will contact Lao Zhang now, and you can go back to prepare for the press conference!" Boss Xiong was really relieved, and he didn't ask Liu Xiao what the direction of development was.
Out of Chenhan, Liu Xiao was in a good mood, full of ambition, and couldn't help but look up to the sky and roar, attracting everyone's attention, Liu Xiao clenched his fists in the square, very excited, and didn't notice the people around him at all, "YES! Wait, I will make SoftAlliance the world's No. 1 hacker brand!"
A few hours later, Liu Xiao received a strange phone call and picked it up, "Hello, who is it?"
"May I ask if it's Mr. Liu Xiao from the Soft Alliance?" the man smiled, "Hello Mr. Liu, I'm Jing Cheng!"
Liu Xiao immediately thought about the person he knew, and there was no one named Jing Cheng, so he thought in his heart who this person was, how could he know his phone number, and the next introduction of that person let Liu Xiao know the identity of the other party.
"I'm the security technical director of Warwick! I am very presumptuous to call you, and please Haihan!" the man laughed on the phone.
"Are you Dugu Han, a northern beggar?" Liu Xiao reacted immediately.
"Hehe, I didn't expect you to know this nickname of mine!" Jing Cheng smiled.
"The name of the predecessor of the Northern Beggar, no one in the circle knows, which one does not know, I have admired it for a long time!" Liu Xiao paused, "I don't know what advice the predecessor of the Northern Beggars has this time?"
"There is no predecessor who is not a predecessor, and the security field relies on real skills, not some false name. Jing Cheng sighed for a long time and said: "I only learned about you today from a few old employees of the Soft Alliance, you can single-handedly bring down such a big underground hacker group, and when the Soft Alliance is in danger, you have picked up this burden, which makes me very admired, I want to talk to you!"
Liu Xiao smiled, "Then I'll call you Director Jing, what does Director Jing want to talk about?"
"I want to talk to you about your future!" Jing Cheng smiled.
"My future?" Liu Xiao was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, it must be the failure of Huawei's acquisition of the soft alliance, so he retreated to the second, trying to rebel against himself and let himself jump to Huawei, this is also a strategy to draw wages from the bottom of the kettle, the soft alliance has just recovered a little, he once again put you in a situation where the dragons have no leader, and he is also a soldier who surrenders without a fight. Liu Xiao smiled, "If you want to persuade me to change jobs, then we have nothing to talk about!" Liu Xiao directly blocked the other party's words.
"Director Liu is really powerful, I can guess it, but I don't understand, a talent like you should go to a platform that is more suitable for you, and Huawei can provide you with such a platform, I can assure you that as long as you are willing to come, your annual salary is only below me!" Jing Cheng seemed to be unrelenting.
Liu Xiao interrupted him, "I thank Director Jing for his kindness, it's just that I'm the kind of person who doesn't hit the south wall and doesn't look back." Liu Xiao paused, and quickly changed the topic, "By the way, I just have something here that I want to inform Director Jing, three days later, we will hold a press conference on the future development direction of the Soft Alliance, I think you will be interested, I hope Director Jing can come in person." ”
Jing Cheng sighed, "Alas, it seems that I can't convince you! Okay, I must be there in person!"
"On behalf of the Soft Alliance, thank you for your support!" Liu Xiaoyan was insincere.
"I'm sorry, I can feel that Director Liu is a very ambitious person, but it's a pity that we can't be partners in cooperation!" Jing Cheng suddenly laughed, "Well, there is someone racing with me along the way, but it's not so lonely, I'm very happy to have such an opponent as you!"
Liu Xiao smiled, "I'm also very honored!"
