Chapter 669 Chapter 771 Two companies that are about to go public
Zhou Shi stayed in the magic capital for a few days, and made the decision to invest in equipment manufacturing enterprises in the semiconductor industry such as China Micro Semiconductor, which was implemented by Qinglong Venture Capital. Originally, he wanted to contact Pan Jianwei, the father of quantum, but they were promoting a scientific research project, and there was no time, so Zhou Shi had to tell the people in the Time Lab to keep in touch with them. Later, I learned through the relationship that Pan Jianwei's project was an experimental satellite for quantum communication. I think it is a good satellite of the famous "Mozi" in later generations.
Chery Automobile did not go either, and when it heard that Chery and Saab contacted to acquire the remaining car assets, they were blocked by Saab employees and the local government. It's no wonder that after maintaining the product line in a few product lines, Saab, which was concentrating on it, quickly improved, at least the loss was much smaller. In addition, Galaxy Capital has increased its investment in R&D of new energy vehicles, and Saab has set up research centers in Silicon Valley, the United Kingdom, Germany, and China. For this reason, even the hybrid cars were stopped, and they were going to sell them to Chery together this time.
There is no doubt that Zhou Shi, whose strength has increased greatly, has started the road of new energy vehicles. In fact, he didn't really want to start this project, mainly because there was no suitable candidate, and after a few layers, the execution ability below would definitely decline. Especially Saab's stubborn corporate culture, Zhou Shi had to continue to weaken the role of Saab Sweden, set up the headquarters of new energy vehicles in Silicon Valley, and the main person in charge also stayed in Silicon Valley. It is extremely irrational to let a group of professional managers open up a new industry, which will face many problems and may continue to make mistakes, how to improve the ability of professional managers?
"Who of you wants to build a new energy vehicle like Tesla, Saab lacks a partner, if you are interested, please sign up, contact Chen Wen" Zhou Shi posted a circle of friends on his WeChat, and then left the magic capital, and flew to Singapore with the old and strong Zhang Yujing and his party.
When I arrived at the Singapore Chartered Semiconductor Company, there was nothing to say, Xie Songhui, who was negotiating with Globalfoundries, was taken away, and the negotiations between the two engines ended, accompanied by the personnel turmoil of the Chartered Semiconductor.
Zhou Shi stayed in Singapore for a few days, and when he saw that the handover was smooth and there were no problems, he left here and returned to Silicon Valley. Twitter is actually going public, and Larry Ellison, who became the chairman of Twitter, has now become an active user of Twitter, constantly attracting the attention of users, but he didn't expect it to go public in the blink of an eye. In the previous life, Twitter went public, but it was not until 2014, and now I don't know if it will work.
"Twitter has 250 million users, and it's growing very fast, so why not!" Ellison said confidently.
"Well, since you've decided, so be it, I don't have an opinion. "Zhou Shi, he has so many social products, Twitter is something that can be given up.
"I know you don't have an opinion, why is your Yahoo!Message suddenly so popular, and if you wait, it will affect Twitter!"
Zhou Shi was also stunned, Yahoo Tong was popular and he had no choice, he came to Huaxia during this time happened to encounter the explosion of Yahoo Pass users, causing the server to crash, and it was not solved for several hours, and finally through emergency diversion, and then contact Time Cloud to finally solve the problem, so that major companies and media in the project jealousy and hatred, with a gloating tone, mocked, and then questioned Yahoo's technical strength. In fact, Yahoo itself is to blame for this, and did not expect such a large increase in the growth rate of users and the number of people online at the same time. However, Ellison is also worthy of being an old fox, and he knew so quickly that the development of Twitter would be affected by mobile Internet instant messaging.
"How much can Twitter's valuation be?" Zhou Shi is very concerned about this, the days when he has no money are really annoying, but it is a pity that it will take a lot of time for him to become a payment again.
"It's probably going to be $20 billion!" Ellison can be regarded as enjoying the taste of an Internet tycoon, if it weren't for Zhou Shi, he wouldn't have such an opportunity. Moreover, Twitter is not without opportunities in the era of mobile Internet, it still depends on how they operate.
Two tens of billions of dollars, well, he still made a lot of money, and now Time Holdings retains about 20 percent of Twitter's shares, and Ellison also holds about 30 percent of the shares in other people's hands, and the two people together can basically control Twitter's board of directors. They decided to let Twitter IPO, and even CEO Jack Dorsey had to cooperate.
Leaving Twitter, Zhou Shi always felt wrong, how did the current Internet become what it is now, and how can he pit others in the future, although he doesn't seem to have done much. In the future, almost all of the most popular apps in the mobile Internet market have various relationships with him, which is really wonderful.
The popularity of Yahoo Pass is a bit unexpected, although Yahoo has a very large reputation, and the new version of Yahoo Pass has learned a lot from WeChat, but after all, he has not been released for a long time, why does it have the current effect? There is only Facebook mobile and the Friendster app, and it seems that he inadvertently cheated Zuckerberg.
In the previous life in the instant messaging market in the United States, the most users should be Facebook Message, and then whatAPP, etc., I didn't expect the merger of these two companies, and there was such an accident, it turned out that Yahoo Com was not the target Message (referred to as FM!) Well, in fact, Zhou Shi has been misled, although there are more than a billion users of whatAPP, but FM! By 2017, it also had 1.2 billion users worldwide, making it the third largest app in the world after Facebook and whatAPP.
Zhou Shi suddenly mourned for Xiaozha for three seconds, how to merge the two social networks? You must know that these two companies clearly have two different cultures, and the same is true in the eyes of users. It's just that their degree of overlap is so high, if it weren't for being coerced by capital, plus a little bit of caution beyond Zhou Shi, such a decision would not have occurred anyway.
"F&F is also preparing to go public?" Zhou Shi returned to the United States and heard several shocking news one after another.
"Yes, F&F has developed so far, the scale is so big, there is no better way than to go public. But "Luki."
"But what?" Zhou Shi
"Zuckerberg wants to get Time and Friends to give up super voting rights!"
"Why? Oh, no, why?"
"He wants to keep himself in control and doesn't want to affect the development of F&F because of us, and recently someone has accused us of our Chinese background. "Lucci
"It's still this one, can't they play something fresh?" Zhou Shi
"It's the simplest and deadliest," said Lucky
The Chinese threat theory has never stopped in the United States, especially the rise of Zhou Shi has exacerbated this worry, although he can control it for the time being and try not to affect himself, but if it does not change, he will be involved one day.
Carvin, for many days now, feels like he can't write, depressed
