Chapter 1007: The Trouble of Time
Back in Silicon Valley, when Zhou Shi was not idle, Time acquired Times Group, and the negative impact still came out, Tramp, Hillary and others always talked about this matter, saying that it was a proof of the weakness of the lighthouse country, which caused a lot of protests. Fortunately, the $3 billion offer is 50 percent more than Meredith, a rival media group of Time, and there is no problem with the price.
"It seems that we have to make more contributions in the Lighthouse Country!" Zhou Shi
"Yes, most of the business is in the lighthouse country...... Liu Chuanzhi also knows that as a foreign company, especially a large eastern enterprise with many conflicts of interest with the lighthouse country, they do not have many choices. In order to ensure the development of time in the lighthouse country, he will stay in Silicon Valley most of the time.
Liu Chuanzhi is undoubtedly old and strong, because of the success of time, he put down his job at Lenovo and handed it over to his old partner Zhu Lilan. As a result, the evaluation in Japan has finally risen.
"It is also necessary to publicize that Time is an international company, and many of our products appear because the people of the lighthouse country dominate the development......" Wei He
"So how do we balance the cognitive conflict between the Chinese people and the lighthouse people?" Zhou Shi
Lenovo was like this later, the exception is not people, the lighthouse country will not see Lianxiang as a domestic enterprise, and Huaxia will see Lianxiang as a traitor. In the middle, there is not only hatred of iron but not steel, and there are reasons for the unclear positioning of Lianxiang's senior management. If one day, Lianxiang went bankrupt, he would not be surprised at all.
"Don't think about the right and left, even if it is difficult now, it will not leave more trouble for the future!" Zhou Shi
If a person has doubts about his gender, he has doubts about his life, and if time is not clear about his position, sooner or later he will face a more severe test.
"But how do we deal with it now?"
"Thanks to the help of the lighthouse country, dilute the Chinese background, we are an ordinary multinational company, without any Chinese court background, we will abide by the laws of the host country and so on......" Zhou Shi
"I'm afraid it's not enough!" Liu Chuanzhi
"Then sell part of the interests and promote Instagram's independent listing......"
“……”
"Does this work?" said Liu
"Now that we are listed, it is natural to let more powerful shareholders join Instagram, and then through this capital operation, we can let everyone let go of their worries about our form of business. Time's parent company does not pursue commercial interests, but there are no restrictions on any business practices of Time's subsidiary. Instagram is a purely American company! It's just that the shareholder is time, and there is a Chinese background...... "Zhou Shi."
So we can use this kind of thinking to deduce by the way that Time America is actually an ordinary American company, but the shareholders have a Chinese background. Or we can also create rumors that we are mainly worried about the Huaxia Imperial Court ...... "Wei He."
"Shut up!" Zhou Shi
"There are some things that can't be used......" Zhou Shi
Many people like to take shortcuts, thinking that this is a sign of cleverness, and even Liu Chuanzhi asked others to make better choices in a show: ensure their own interests first, and then compensate or help others afterwards. It seems that there is no problem, but in fact, it can be seen whether a person has self-perseverance. No good entrepreneur is a swaying person who is easily influenced by others. Moderation is okay, but moderation is not a wall-to-wall grass. If you want to please both sides, no one will be offended, that is the stupidest choice.
Zhou Shi stopped Wei He from taking shortcuts, he didn't take shortcuts in the previous entrepreneurial process, but the times have changed, judging the situation, no one pays attention to what you do when you are weak, and when you are strong, there are people who think about everything. As long as we know a sentence on the Internet, "Lu Xun said," we can scare the whole world, and the heroes will be restrained! Who knows what will become of the rumors after they are disseminated? Now it is acceptable to lose a little, and there is still a chance to make up for it, but once we go in the wrong direction, it will be too late to regret it. When he has a choice, Zhou Shi is still willing to be stupid, stupid, and down-to-earth. This is the same as the choice between conspiracy and conspiracy, there is no distinction between high and low, only the right and wrong timing. A king supreme plays with intrigues and tricks, worried that virtue is not worthy!
When heaven and earth come together, the heroes are not free. Zhou Shi actually believes in this sentence very much, and believes in the existence of luck, otherwise how could a person with great talent in history fall into a very embarrassing situation after creating a legend, even if it is the son of the plane Han Guangwu Liu Xiu's later years are still not very satisfactory.
Of course, Zhou Shi is not a son of the plane now, but his achievements can be said to be unprecedented, and perhaps there will be no one to come. So how do you keep your luck so that you don't lose the prophet and still be able to maintain it, so that your mentality will not be unbalanced.
You must know that every historical period has its own pig's feet, and the information revolution represented by the Internet is now about to reach its peak, so what will be the pig's feet in the next historical period? Biological evolution technology, space exploration, or the energy revolution represented by nuclear fusion? No matter what it is, Zhou Shi has no advantage, and the new pig's feet cannot be controlled by money. Just like Wall Street capital can't dominate a tech company of the size of Microsoft and Google. Microsoft and Google can't stop companies like Facebook and Uber from appearing.
So in the face of the unpredictable future, everyone will have their own choices, some fools may choose to strangle competitors (Ahri), some people may choose to control partners (penguins) with money, but Zhou Shi chooses an unbelievable public charity, or time mode!
Zhou Shi wants to turn the corporate form of Time Holdings into a public welfare model of university social organizations, so he naturally does not want too many negative things to affect it. Outstanding talents from various countries and nationalities, whether they are talents in science and technology, humanities and social sciences, need time. Not only their talents, connections, but also their insights. After he loses his advantage, he can only use his second advantage, which is to know people well, dare to delegate power, and let the world's outstanding talents serve him. And there is a bolder idea, he wants to support the United Nations from virtual to real, gain more rights, and strive to achieve global unity one day in the future.
Of course, for at least a decade, global unity will be an illusion. Whether the future can become a reality depends on what the future will become. Zhou Shi has changed Time Holdings to the way it is now, but he still has hidden organs, and when he frees up his hands in Europe, America and the Asia-Pacific region, how can he make a big fuss in South America. He had a wish that was not a wish, that is, there must be a place where he could stay in every corner of the world.
Zhou Shi put away his careful thoughts, and several people continued to discuss, Instagram listing is just an explanation to the elites of the lighthouse country, so how to buy the people of the lighthouse country? This is another big problem!
