Chapter 624: The Blame of a Rake
It's one thing to buy Yahoo, it's another thing to become the CEO of Yahoo, and besides, although Yahoo's market capitalization is only about $20 billion, and there is a possibility of further decline, if you really want to buy it as a whole, it may cost $40 or 50 billion. Of course, no one will make that offer, let alone Alibaba has the right of first refusal, so under normal circumstances, no one will actually buy Yahoo. This was also evidenced by later changes, and Yahoo was eventually acquired after the spin-off of Alibaba and Yahoo Japan. Those who say that Yahoo was acquired in the end for only a few billion dollars, did not calculate the value of Ali's equity at all, not to mention the cash income of tens of billions of dollars due to the transfer of Ali's shares in the next few years, although most of this money was lost by their beautiful CEO, Zhou Shi sincerely doubted that Marisa Mayer was not an accomplice in the choice of capital, just to consume Yahoo's capital and cash out the cash obtained by Yahoo's transfer of Ali's equity.
Zhou Shi continued to be interviewed by the media, and this was the first time he officially showed his ability to the world. Coupled with the guidance of various spontaneous or bribed people, the American public's impression of Zhou Shi has evolved from a slightly mysterious young Oriental tycoon to a model of self-struggle, a young Chinese American with distinctive characteristics of the American dream, which shows that as long as you have ideals, you have the opportunity to succeed in the United States. In addition, Zhou Shi's old house is still there, and it has been recorded and interpreted by reporters in an all-round way, a person who has directly evolved from the stage of extreme poverty to a billionaire of tens of billions of dollars, this is not a miracle, what is a miracle? Fortunately, China has reported everything about Zhou Shi some time ago, knowing that reading can change destiny, and knowing that knowledge can produce wealth. Local governments have increased subsidies for outstanding students. Especially in Xiang Province, a top talent can bring nearly 100 billion soft sister coins to Hunan Province, and their previous investment in re-education is very valuable.
Jack Ma was also about to cut through the mess, and before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, he forced Wei Zhe to resign as CEO and completely quit from Ali. Jackma quickly put an end to the current chaos, and even if many people were injured by mistake, he had to stabilize the current situation. So a new opportunity appeared in front of Zhou Shi, and Alibaba's B2B Huaxia supplier team, that is, the team with Ali's iron army, was facing disintegration.
"You know Ali's Gan Jiawei and the others, right?" Zhou Shi called Liang Jianzhang
"I've heard of it, it seems to be very capable!" Liang Jianzhang
"That's good, Ali's Iron Army is about to disintegrate, you go and find a way to take over their team. "Zhou Shi, although it is impossible to receive it in a package, it is still very good to replenish Meituan's talent pool.
After pointing out Liang Jianzhang, Zhou Shi hesitated, but still did not call Wang Xin, who was commented on by the public. Although most of Dianping's shares are his, who let Zhou Shi have another purpose from the beginning? Even the cooperation between Meituan and Baidu is a little tangled, and Yahoo will definitely have conflicts with Baidu in the future, and now that they are cooperating, conflicts will inevitably break out in the future, and the probability of success of this company has been reduced a lot. Unfortunately, although most things can be done according to his wishes, there are still some things that he can't refuse. With Zhou Shi's influence, if you withdraw from Baidu directly, there will always be bad associations, but it will be different to cooperate in another way, not to mention that this is not the only reason.
Softbank's unexpected self-harm behavior naturally aroused public outrage, and didn't it break the rules? Zhou Shi, who was seriously injured, naturally called Sun Zhenyi and asked him why he did such a thing that harmed others and was not beneficial to himself.
"Alipay's matter is different from what Jack Ma said at the beginning, which will be a big loss for us. "Sun Zhenyi
"Can't it be resolved peacefully? Why don't you notify Yahoo in advance?" Zhou Shi is very angry now, "I am optimistic about the development of Yahoo and Ahri, I have emptied the shares of Apple and Baidu, and invested in Yahoo, you suddenly gave me such a ruthless blow, this is your sincerity to your partners?" Zhou Shi was very angry
SoftBank and Zhou Shi have a lot of cooperation, including Time and Friends and Guoke Mobile Phone, from the weak collaborator at the beginning, to now getting stronger and stronger. The change in the status of the two sides gave Zhou Shi more say in the cooperation. The current situation is that Zhou Shi can do without Softbank, but SoftBank does not necessarily. Almost all popular websites and apps in Japan have a relationship with Zhou Shi in one way or another. Of course, the promotion of Time Android is inseparable from the Japanese market, and in general, the status of the two sides is still equal, and no one can do without whom.
"It was also an accident, and I didn't want to. You took a stake in Yahoo?" Sun Zhenyi suddenly realized that there was something in Zhou Shi's words that he didn't know.
"I've been buying Yahoo shares for a while, and I'm going to buy more than five percent of them in the announcement. Karlbates guy really can't do it, I want to change someone, like Meg Whitman!" Zhou Shi, it's not complete nonsense, if Whitman takes over Yahoo because of her understanding of the C2C industry, she may be better able to communicate with Ahri, of course, the situation may get worse. It couldn't be more appropriate to use her as an excuse, not to mention that Zhou Shi really had contact with her.
"Meg Whitman?" Sun Zhenyi considered this candidate, it seems feasible?
"What's the use of talking about this now, Yahoo is waiting to be sued, I don't know how to pass this hurdle! I was miserable by you!" Zhou Shi didn't say anything else, but said that this investment, from now on, is miserable. He didn't enter Yahoo when it was worth $25 billion, but he did it above $200. Although he didn't lose much now, he still lost money after all, Sun Zhenyi could easily get the approximate price of Zhou Shi's entry, when he sold Apple and Baidu shares, and when he started to invest in Yahoo, so calculated, plus the part of Galaxy Holdings, Zhou Shi's loss was really big, very big, about 700 million US dollars in market value loss.
"I'm really sorry this time, this is not my arrangement, and I am also very surprised, I will give you an explanation!" Sun Zhenyi
"What are you going to do next? Yahoo's problem will be dealt with like this, and what should be done about the conflict between them and Ahri?" Zhou Shi would not let Sun Zhenyi go so easily
"Let's sit down and talk together, things can't drag on like this......" Sun
"It's only like this, I was going to kill Karbats, but it's a pity this time, hey, I don't know if this investment in Yahoo can pay off!" Zhou Shi, under normal circumstances, Yahoo is facing so much trouble, and there is a possible punishment from the SEC, and the consequences are absolutely worrying.
"Let Jackma shut up first, and then ...... in a unified tone" Sun Zhenyi, if Ali, Yahoo, and SoftBank all breathe together and say that this matter is being negotiated, there is still room for things to turn around, and the SEC may also open up in order to avoid greater losses for investors.
"It can only be like this......" Zhou Shibai plated the latest chapter of "The Rebirth Legend of the Post-80s Legendary Claw Book House" to read for free for the first time.
