Yelp's financing really caused problems with Groupon's financing, and the financing that was about to be negotiated was interrupted, so how to refer to yelp's pricing and development trends. And there were not many options in the market before, Yelp has the largest market share in the United States, but it has always refused to raise funds, and other companies are either too small or companies owned by giants, and most venture capitalists have no chance. This time, more than a dozen venture capitalists competed to participate in YELP's financing, which was almost their best opportunity, and no one wanted to miss it. But funding has never been the only condition for Yelp or Zhoushi, nor is it the most important reference factor. Additional factors such as talent, public opinion, and law determine that their financing negotiations will not be fast.

At this time, Yahoo's Yang Zhiyuan found Zhou Shi, Xuanwu Fund and White Tiger Fund held a total of 9.9% of Yahoo's shares, neither of which exceeded 5%, but Zhou Shi still joined Yahoo's board of directors, but unfortunately did not help Yang Zhiyuan, and even kept Yahoo invested in search technology unsuccessful. Carol Butz's past success has made her extremely confident. It was difficult to listen to other people's opinions, and his attitude towards Zhou Shi was so arrogant that he really didn't want to go to Yahoo.

"If you want Yahoo to take a stake in Yelp, then don't talk about it, you know, I hate that woman!" Zhou Shi said directly to Yang Zhiyuan, Google announced its withdrawal from the Chinese market a few days ago, Carol Butz publicly expressed his support for Google, and also said that "the company strongly opposes any privacy violation", and also scolded Ma Ali before, saying that he did not run Yahoo China well, well, although this is a fact, it doesn't have to be so direct, Ma Ali is a bigwig level figure after all. Later, he suddenly cashed out one percent of Alibaba's shares, but fortunately, Zhou Shi's addition made Yahoo's shares in Ali only about 35 percent, and now it may only be 33 percent. Fortunately, Taobao and Alipay are separated from Alibaba by one layer due to the addition of Zhou Shi.

"I hate that woman too, but there are some things I can't do. "Yang Zhiyuan

"There's a way to get her away!" Zhou Shi

"After that, who will take over? How to reconcile the contradictions of the board of directors?" Yang Zhiyuan

The Wolf of Wall Street in Carl Icahn hasn't left yet, and Zhou Shi has a headache about it. This-stirring stick appears everywhere, which is really uncomfortable. Fortunately, he lost a lot of money on Yahoo, which is quite relieving. The cost price of this guy's initial stake was $23.59, and he later bought some around $10, but the average price was still higher than $20, but unfortunately Yahoo's stock price has been below $18, and Calicahn wanted to recoup his investment, and some waited.

"Could it be that you become the CEO of Yahoo?" Yang Zhiyuan

"I thought, but it's a pity that it's not suitable, and it's almost the same for me to be the chairman. Zhou Shiyi accidentally said what was in his heart, Yang Zhiyuan's ability is indeed limited, and he is already lagging behind this era.

"If you really have this idea, it's not impossible!" Yang Zhiyuan didn't refute.

"Are you out of your mind?" Of course, Zhou Shi's original words were not like this, but the meaning was similar.

"Hey~~" Yang Zhiyuan was a little interested, and did not continue the topic just now.

Yahoo's growth is really not good, the market share of online display advertising will reach 13.5 percent, and Facebook and Friends will share 10 percent of the market. In the entire Internet advertising market, Yahoo's market share is only 13 percent, Friends and Facebook together have about 5 percent, and Google has about 35 percent. It can be said that the gap between social networks and portals is gradually narrowing, and the future is clearly the world of search engines and social networks.

"I'm serious, after all, Internet companies are still high-tech and high-tech companies, and it won't do any good for Yahoo to put that old lady in charge! I've even heard people complain that Yahoo's salespeople use a system from 10 years ago! This is ridiculous!" Zhou Shi

"I'm not going to let her mess around. "Yang Zhiyuan

Hehe, Zhou Shi sneered in his heart, it's strange if you can be big, it's strange that this kind of person with soft ears and a good character can survive until now. But who made him a Chinese elite?

"By the way, Yelp really doesn't want Yahoo's investment, so we will increase our investment in group buying, and maybe invest in GroupOn. "Yang Zhiyuan

"You know the threat, but what I want to ask most is what kind of company Yahoo is, have you found the position of Yahoo, is it too hasty to get involved in so many industries now, or do you think Yahoo is out of the predicament of development?" Zhou Shi

Yahoo's income is mainly advertising, but its advertising market share in the United States and the world has been declining, although the decline in revenue due to the expansion of the market is not very large, but anyone can see Yahoo's current predicament!

"Yahoo is an Internet portal that meets everything an Internet user needs. "Yang Zhiyuan

"Oh, all the needs, what about your social networks, what about e-commerce?" Zhou Shi retorted casually, and now he has said that he has provided all the services, even if Zhou Shi is reborn, he does not dare to say that he can establish a complete mobile phone industry chain, but he has his own influence in key industries.

"You~~" Yang Zhiyuan was speechless by Zhou Shi

"Let's talk about group buying cooperation, set up a group buying area on Yahoo.com, we provide back-end support and follow-up services for Yahoo, and then the two sides share the revenue, what do you think?" Zhou Shi actually wanted Yahoo to advertise for free.

"This matter can only be discussed with Karol Butz, I don't care!" Yang Zhiyuan

"It's really not good, let's compete, but Yahoo really can't mess around, there is not much time left for you, Facebook and Friends are continuing to encroach on the advertising market......" Zhou Shi

"I know, I still need you to remind me, I forgot, you are still the founder of the friend network, do you mean something else?" Yang Zhiyuan

"Don't talk nonsense, you're thinking too much. Zhou Shi looked at Yang Zhiyuan, who had gray hair, and didn't continue to hit him, he couldn't even speak Mandarin well, who was playing with you.

"Does your friend network also need financing?" Yang Zhiyuan

"How do you know?" asked Zhou Shi in surprise

"Hehehe~~" Yang Zhiyuan wouldn't tell Zhou Shi that he had just guessed.

"The development of the friend network still depends on everyone, and financing is inevitable. "Zhou Shi

"YELP won't let us join, and the financing of Friends.com will not continue to refuse," Yang Zhiyuan

"Of course, as long as you have the money and start with a minimum valuation of 10 billion US dollars, does it make sense for Yahoo to do this, it is equivalent to a financial investment. "Zhou Shi

"You don't have to worry about it, we all know this, things are not necessarily the same" Yang Zhiyuan

"You're more troublesome than marrying a wife, and you can't decide anything. "Zhou Shi

"You'll have such a day!" Yang Zhiyuan

MD, what you say makes so much sense that it makes people speechless!
