Chapter 933: Eyeing Time Warner
How about we buy Time Warner?" Zhou Shido said on the rostrum, looking at the surprise of the audience, he was very proud.
"Time Warner is cleaning up assets in preparation for selling Time Warner Cable. We have hope!" Zhou Shi continued
"Sion, you're not wrong, Time Warner, are you going to turn Yahoo into a media company?" Mayer
"No! It's nice to have part of Yahoo into a media company. Zhou Shi said seriously
"Why don't we try it?" Pichai, although he doesn't approve of Yahoo's acquisition of Time Warner, and he doesn't think that Zhou Shi really wants Yahoo to buy Time Warner, but since he has already proposed it, he doesn't mind helping Zhou Shi.
"Try to quote a price!" Zhou Shi
The merger of Time Warner and AOL was the most high-profile merger of the century, and the end seems to have ended up losing $100 billion. Later, AOL was sold along with Yahoo to Verizon, a telecommunications company in the Lighthouse Nation. The acquisition caused many of Time Warner's shareholders to suffer heavy losses and their net worth plummeted. For example, Ted Turner, the vice chairman of Time Warner, who originally owned $7.2 billion in shares in the United Company, was only a fraction of $200 million a few years later. If he had the chance, would he humanely destroy AOL CEO Steve Case?
"And if they do say yes?" Morse
"It shouldn't be so stupid, right?" Zhou Shi, it was not unreasonable for him to say this, at that time AOL was in full swing, but it was much stronger than Yahoo now, and acquired Netscape, which can compete with Microsoft, ICQ, the prototype of QQ. If it weren't for the fact that I was too dead and didn't understand the Internet, I wouldn't be in the current situation. After being disliked by Time Warner many times, the two parties finally broke up. Once bitten by a snake, I was afraid of the well rope for ten years, isn't it strange!
"......" There are always more fools than smart people in this world, and some people deliberately become fools for some purposes, what can you do if you really encounter this kind of thing?
"At most, we really buy it, like Mr. Zhou said, now is the time to value traffic, but it will always return to the time when quality is valued, and the creators of high-quality content will never lose opportunities. "Mayer
Content is king, traffic is king, different times have different needs, when the traffic is relatively stable, it is natural that content is king, when the traffic source changes drastically, especially when the new demand and new traffic exceed the old demand and old traffic, the role of content will be relatively reduced. For example, for senior music lovers, NetEase Cloud lacks music copyrights and is not enough, but for ordinary music lovers, less is less, no big deal. Of course, senior and demanding people are relatively strong people who can pay, and the lack of copyright will really hit NetEase Cloud Music hard.
Since it has been decided to have an affair with Time Warner, then it is necessary to abandon eBay, anyway, I have been playing for so long, and the purpose has basically been achieved, and in such irresponsibility, negative effects may occur, such as the firewood knife effect on campus, which may not happen to Yahoo, and it is still good to be kind. Hitting the opponent silently is Zhou Shi's favorite, and it has nothing to do with you to eliminate you, the struggle between the two teams at different levels, how it will end is actually doomed.
Although Yahoo does not acquire eBay, there will be many cooperation between the two sides, such as eBay adding a Yahoo payment channel, such as advertising cooperation between the two parties...... Zhou Shi wants to fight ayal, not ebay, which doesn't pose much threat to him!
"If we can buy Time, it will be a very interesting thing, the price may be a little high, it may not make money, but the influence can be preserved. This has a huge role in promoting the future development of time. Wei He heard that Zhou Shi was messing around in Yahoo and found him
"Time Company, isn't Time Warner a whole?"
"They are two companies, the emergence of Yahoo Toutiao has almost become a trend for traditional media to be replaced by new media, and the market value of Times has been fluctuating downward since its listing last year, and we have great hopes for acquisition. "Wei He
Only then did Zhou Shi remember that he had only read the information a few days ago, and the era was indeed listed separately. What this means is unknown, but the fact that YEL is listed independently does not mean that Yahoo may sell YEL.
"Time acquisition era, Made, why did you hear so awkward. "Zhou Shi, these two terms can be said to be the same.
"Maybe this may be providence!" Wei He
"Providence? "Zhou Shi is noncommittal, rebirth is possible, what kind of materialist, isn't that a joke?
"But if time comes directly to the door, it will almost certainly be rejected, and the best way is for Yahoo to test it first, and then ......," Wei He recounted his plan
"Can ......" Zhou Shi, 5102 years, Zhou Shi has reduced the number of times he gives solutions, and many times he does not even express his views on the company's business decisions, which is not only clumsy, but also to give employees more opportunities for meritorious performance.
Zhou Shi is the boss, no one can replace him, and there is no need to compete with his subordinates. In a company with a complex relationship between superiors and subordinates, the occurrence of a situation where the boss takes the credit from the subordinate means that the management begins to get out of control. It also shows that the level of the boss is not enough, and the subordinates are either not deeply involved in the world, or they are not emotionally intelligent enough, and they are not qualified anyway. Zhou Shi strives to turn himself into a qualified chaebol leader before the arrival of 8102, and learning is a must!
"Mr. Zhou, find a good company!" Chen Wen finally showed him the information
"Applied Materials!" Zhou Shi lost interest when he saw the company's name
"Are you sure?" Zhou Shi, a semiconductors equipment manufacturer, is an upstream enterprise in the chip industry, and its industry status is similar to ASL in the Netherlands, which is difficult to bypass in the domestic semiconductor industry anyway.
"On April 27 this year, Applied Materials and Tokyo Electron announced that they had officially abandoned their merger plan, and their two-year merger plan was vetoed by the U.S. Department of Justice because of concerns that the merger would produce a giant in the chip equipment industry and have a negative impact on downstream chipmakers, and their stock prices are continuing to ......fall because of the decline in revenue and profits," Chen Wen explained
"The company is a good company, the people are good people, but this kind of transaction is impossible, you can buy Intel if you have money? We can't even buy AD and AR. Zhou Shi glared at Chen Wen viciously, this kind of enterprise with strategic value, they will let Zhou Shi control, just kidding! Not to mention that the lighthouse country is now the first to get out of the financial crisis and stand out in the global economy, even if it is the financial crisis in 08, Zhou Shi will not succeed in acquiring such an important enterprise, and he must be self-aware! The rebirth legend of the post-80s
