Chapter 122 Expanding PayPal's Business

……

"Ahh

Guo Shouyun sneezed.

"Don't add another piece of clothing, the weather is not very good today, the temperature outside is a little low! Wendy handed over the tissue and persuaded with concern.

"No! I'm in good health, I don't catch colds so easily!" After wiping his nose, he threw the used tissue into the trash, put on the coat Wendy handed over, pushed the door and walked out.

Under the gloomy sky, a cold wind blew, making Guo Shouyun shiver. Hurriedly tightened his clothes, pulled the car door and got in.

"Today's temperature, even if it's less than zero, I'm afraid it's about the same!"

"It's November 20th, and it's normal for the weather to be cold. But compared to Chicago, New York, Pittsburgh, etc., San Francisco's winters are already warm!" Wendy said.

Guo Shouyun nodded in agreement, San Francisco is located on the Pacific coast, belongs to the temperate oceanic climate, and the minimum temperature in winter is generally about five or six degrees, and will not drop below zero!

"Boss, where are you going today?" asked Matthew.

"San Jose!"

Matthew understood, stepped on the accelerator, and the car started steadily and drove out of Guo's Manor.

"How is Liu Zhixing doing these days?"

"It's still the same. I read in the morning, draw in the afternoon, walk around the backyard occasionally, and accompany the girl in the evening, every day!" Wendy said.

"Hasn't his green card been processed yet?"

"I just asked, it's going to take three days!"

"Have you contacted Nannan's kindergarten?" Guo Shouyun continued.

Just wait for Liu Zhixing to get a green card, and you can enroll in school with a suitable identity!"

Guo Shouyun nodded clearly, and after thinking for a while, "What do you think of Liu Zhixing?"

"Boss, you...!"

Looking at Wendy's surprised and resentful eyes, Guo Shouyun smiled dumbly, "I misunderstood, I didn't match your intentions." I'm just asking you what you think of his character, what kind of talent? After all, you've been in contact with him the most these days! I want to know more about him from you. ”

"There's nothing wrong with character, but as for talent... , not easy to judge. After all, we haven't been in contact for a long time. Wendy replied with a sigh of relief.

"That's it!"

After nodding thoughtfully, Guo Shouyun didn't say anything more.

The car drove through the streets under Matthew's drive and slowly stopped in front of the PayPal office in downtown San Jose. Follow the familiar path upstairs, greet the greetings of the surrounding employees, and come to his chairman's office. After looking at the time, "Wendy, get David and Ken!"

Wendy nodded, and after pushing the door open, yPal's CEO, David Sachs, and CFO Ken Howrey pushed the door and walked in.

“BOSS!”

"Sit!"

Guo Shouyun pointed to the sofa opposite him.

"Wendy, three cups of coffee!"

"Mine without sugar!" said Ken Holray hurriedly.

"Yes!"

When Wendy was busy, Guo Shouyun asked, "How is the company's business volume recently?"

"Excellent!"

When he said this, David Sachs had an excited look on his face.

"Thanks to the genius idea of the boss's 'account security period', the number of registered users of PayPal has exceeded 2.6 million in the past two months! The monthly transaction volume of the account has exceeded 48 million US dollars, with an average of 18,000 transactions per day! The service fee charged from each transaction alone has reached the level of 900,000 US dollars per month!"

"Not bad! However, I think the income from the stranded funds in the PayPal account should be no worse than the service fee!" Guo Shouyun nodded and said.

"Hmm... Now there are more than $35 million in PayPal accounts for more than three days, more than $12 million for more than a week, and 4.5 million for more than a month! The profits from the short-term credit of these stranded funds alone have exceeded 1.5 times the monthly service fee! Moreover, it will grow rapidly with the growth of users and the increase in transaction volume. ”

Guo Shouyun nodded, and now the Internet industry, including the United States, and users are in a period of rapid development. According to historical trends, PayPal's rapid development will continue for another three to five years.

After taking a sip of the coffee cup, Guo Shouyun beckoned to Wendy, who understood, took out the documents prepared in advance from his briefcase and handed them to him.

After a brief glance, Guo Shouyun handed the other two copies to the two of them.

"The number of PayPal signups is not small now. Therefore, I felt it was necessary to revamp the website to further enrich our services. ”

After a pause, Guo Shouyun flipped open the cover of the document, "You see, in the past, our website had a homepage, and the content was very simple. In addition to the balance and the option to bind a bank card on the right, there is the transaction record in the lower half. Now I'm going to set up two buttons at the top of the homepage, 'Pay' and 'Life'. If the user clicks 'Pay', the website will automatically jump to the payment page on the homepage. If the user clicks on 'Life', the website will automatically jump to the Life page. And the content of the life page, mainly online shopping!"

“… For example, we can set up the Amazon icon at the bottom of the life page, and if the user clicks on it, they will go to the Amazon shopping site!"

"Advertising revenue?" David Sachs blurted out.

"No! we don't want Amazon marketing fees. We simply add our PayPal payment option to their payment page and take a commission from every transaction!"

The two of them suddenly!

"For the same cooperation, we can find Yahoo, AOL, eBay, Netflix and all other Internet companies. Even if it is not the Internet, but there is a catering company with food delivery service, a theater, amusement park and other service organizations that can book tickets online, we can also cooperate. ”

That's right, what Guo Shouyun wants to do is the PC version of Meituan, and the ultimate goal is to expand the number of registered people and the scope of use of PayPal, so as to lay a good foundation for entering the broader financial industry in the future.

Looking at Guo Shouyun, who was talking eloquently, David Sachs and Ken Howley glanced at each other, and at the same time saw a shock in each other's eyes. They didn't expect Guo Shouyun to have such a big plan for the future of PayPal. However, I was shocked and excited, this is a difficult but magnificent road, and once realized, it will create an Internet payment giant worth tens of billions of dollars.

"Boss, I think we should call Monroe too!" Ken Holray couldn't help but say.

Monro Pahlavi is the Director of Human Resources at PayPal.

"Yes, we need more talent, especially those who are good at business negotiations!" David Sachs chimed in.

"This will naturally be mentioned when the meeting is held!" After a pause, Guo Shouyun turned his gaze to Ken Halray, "Ken, I'll let you change positions!"

"Change jobs?"

Guo Shouyun nodded, "I have a financial company called 'Hanhua' in Huaxia, which is currently mainly engaged in venture capital, asset management and wealth management. The company has assets of approximately $100 million. But right now it lacks a good enough CFO, and I'd like to send you there... Plus, you can rest assured that even if you leave PayPal, your equity will still be retained. Plus, you'll get an option reward from GCA!"

Hearing this, Ken yPal has a bright future under the auspices of Guo Shouyun, and as its chief financial officer, he will definitely gain fame and fortune in the future. But if you leave this position, you may lose the professional influence that PayPal brings as a platform. In addition, Huaxia is a completely foreign country to him, and he may not be able to adapt to it. However, the option reward of Hanhua Company mentioned by Guo Shouyun is another benefit point that he can't give up.

"Boss, can you give me a few days to think about it?"

"Of course, but you only have two days!" Guo Shouyun said.

"Yes!"

"Alright, that's all for our meeting. 30 minutes after the two of you go back and inform the departments, I'm going to have a meeting!"

David Sachs and Ken Howrey nodded and got up to leave. However, compared to the former's complacency, the latter's expression was much more hesitant and dignified!

The subsequent meeting went smoothly, after all, Guo Shouyun's next development plan for PayPal is not difficult to understand. However, it may not be easy to implement it! PayPal's 2.6 million registered members cannot impress everyone! Guo Shouyun also knows this well. But as long as one or two out of ten businesses agree, it's a boost to PayPal's growth.

After the precipitation of time, there are more and more such enterprises, and after forming a certain scale, PayPal's position will be as unshakable as the current Alipay and WeChat Pay!

"Matthew, Wendy, you two drive back! I'm going back to Santa Rosa's farm tonight!" Guo Shouyun said as he left the PayPal office in the afternoon.

"Boss, I'll go with you!" said Wendy.

"Boss, as your personal bodyguard, I should be by your side at all times to keep your life safe!" Matthew Bloom said.

"Okay, okay, I know what you want! However, I'm not going to any dangerous place, one person is enough!" After a pause, his eyes turned to the beautiful woman with a look of hope in his eyes, and after a little hesitation, he still insisted, "Wendy, you haven't rested much this month. From now on, I'll give you two days off to relax. ”

"Boss I...!"

Looking at Guo Shouyun, who had already turned around and walked towards the trunk of the Mercedes-Benz, Wendy nodded and showed a trace of gloom on her pretty face.

After taking out the gifts prepared in advance from the trunk of the Mercedes-Benz that drove in the morning, and waving to the two people who were still standing on the side, Guo Shouyun drove a company's official car and slowly disappeared at the end of the road.

"Miss Wendy, let's go too!"

After taking one last look at the direction Guo Shouyun left, Wendy Solo nodded silently.
