Microsoft's acquisition of Yahoo, and Carl Icahn's fight for proxies has finally come to an end. Zhou Shi also joined Yahoo's board of directors, which is one of the reasons why he moved Yelp to Sunnyvale. Taking advantage of the sharp drop in Yahoo's stock price and a market value of less than $15 billion, Galaxy Capital White Tiger Fund purchased 80 million shares of more than 5% of Yahoo shares through stocks and stock options, and successfully entered Yahoo's board of directors with the cooperation of Yang Zhiyuan and others. In turn, Cal Icahn was suppressed, and a board seat was taken from him. However, Yang Zhiyuan also resigned as CEO in this round of competition, and Carol Butz was still selected as the new CEO of Yahoo, as in history.

Carol Butts is a very strong CEO, having been Sun's second-in-command and CEO of Autodesk, during which time the company's stock price has been growing at an average annual rate of nearly 20 percent, much higher than the 10.6 percent annual growth rate of Standard & Poor's.

However, after seeing Carol Butz's resume, Zhou Shi asked the White Tiger Fund to increase its efforts to acquire Sun's shares, sweeping the market of stocks and stock options. You must know that Sun's current stock price is less than $5, and its market value is less than 4 billion, and Oracle should be about to make a move. Zhou Shi didn't believe that Ellison didn't have a heart for Sun, even if Sun's stock price continued to fall, he was not afraid, just a direct acquisition, although they didn't succeed in acquiring MySQL databases, but Sun's potential is still very large. Sure enough, a few days later, the idea that IBM wanted to buy Sun spread in the market.

The White Tiger Fund, which has spent nearly $200 million and has a 4.95 percent stake in Sun, has been able to know a lot of the inside story, and is mired in serious financial difficulties and a three-month financial deficit, and the current CEO Schwartz is under tremendous pressure to promote the marriage between IBM and Sun, but it is strongly opposed by Sun's chairman and co-founder McNealy.

It seems that every acquisition has not been smooth sailing, and the intrigues in it are difficult for outsiders to see. Zhou Shi thought about it at that time, this time it was to make a fortune, if no one bought Sun before June, the White Tiger Fund took the initiative to initiate the acquisition, forcing those with ambitions to make a move on Sun, especially Oracle. If you really can't use java to threaten Google, use java for commercial purposes, and don't give money, who made you so arrogant? Unexpectedly, when the news of IBM's acquisition of Sun came out, Larry Ellison found Zhou Shi.

"Are you going against me?" said Ellison, domineering

"What's wrong?" Zhou Shifeng was light

"Why should the Golden State Warriors' home court break off their partnership with Oracle? "Ellison

"MMP, I thought you were talking about my acquisition of Sun's shares. "Zhou Shi

"Looks like you're really eyeing me. "Ellison

"You guys really did it to Sun, I thought you didn't want to buy it, seeing that you haven't done it for so long, so I want to try to buy Sun myself. Zhou Shi explained, in fact, he had been prepared for this, the White Tiger Fund has acquired less than five percent of the total Sun shares for so long, and it is strange that no one competes with him for chips.

"Don't pull it off, let's talk about the Golden State Warriors. "Ellison has a matter of entangled stocks, acquiring such a representative high-tech company, as long as IBM and Oracle make a move, Zhou Shi really does not have the slightest advantage, and he will not regard Zhou Shi as an opponent.

"The reason is simple, I'm going to promote the Fruit Shell brand. "Zhou Shi

"In that case, how are you going to make up for my loss?" Ellison

"What kind of compensation do you want" Zhou Shi realized that Ellison's purpose in calling him over was not pure.

"I'm going to take a stake in your husk, and Android!" Ellison's eyes suddenly lit up

Zhou Shizhen didn't know how he could have this idea, it was really surprising.

"Yes, yes, but I am very cautious in choosing partners, and if it doesn't help Guoke and Android enough, I can't think of a reason to accept Oracle's investment," Zhou Shi

"It's not Oracle, it's me. As for the help for you, I will push for your acquisition of InterDigital and help you resolve the legal disputes arising from Nortel's network patents. What do you say?" said Ellison, confidently

Zhou Shi thought about it for a long time, they encountered a lot of difficulties in the patent issue of Nortel Network, and Canada and the United States still have a deep wariness of companies with Chinese backgrounds, especially when someone is obstructing them. Ao Guanhai has just taken office, and many things are too busy, even if he is busy, it is difficult for him to play a big role in some things that have a huge impact, and it is another matter whether he is willing or not, so that politicians can keep their promises and pin their hopes on one person, Zhou Shi and Lu He will not be so naïve. The reason why this matter has not yet come to light is the result of mutual compromise between all parties.

Larry Ellison and Oracle are almost one, but he said at this time that personal investment, which is really incomprehensible to 100,000 MMPs. Besides, how can the individual's ability be as strong as the collective, Oracle has been operating for so long, and the relationship at home and abroad has been mature, Ellison's personal words, doesn't it mean that he doesn't have this ability, but will the pay and return be equal, or will he eat the stone?

"You can take a stake, but you can only become a minority shareholder, and you won't have a lot of say, if you ask too much, whether it's InterDigital or Nortel Networks' patents, it doesn't make sense to me. Zhou Shi said to Ellison seriously

"Don't worry, it's just a normal investment, I don't have anything else on mind. "Ellison

In that case, let's talk about the future strategic direction of these companies. I'll talk about the Android system first, it is not much different from Apple's IOS and Google's Android, and this difference is not big because of the technology, but in the final effect, they will not be much different. And the main purpose of my efforts to develop this system is for the Huaxia government, and I need a name made in Huaxia so that my company can get special care in Huaxia. The company has three brands, the company is an international brand, not mainly to learn the boutique strategy of Apple's mobile phone, the mobile phone chip and operating system will be selected according to the market situation, if the operation effect is good, the development prospects will be considerable. The nut mobile phone will use the tactics of high-quality home machines, mainly using the Android system, a small amount of Android, and most of the chips will use products designed by one of my companies. Tomato mobile phones mainly focus on the low-cost mobile phone market, and the sales price is maintained at around $100, and more are below $100. Both the system and the chip will use the products of my chip design company......" Zhou Shi seriously told him his own ideas, waiting for his own choice.

"It's hard to choose!I'd better just have Android!" Ellison

I wrote two chapters in two days on the National Day, and I didn't save the manuscript today, and I died of depression!
