Chapter 311 MySQL Databases
Although Zhou Shi's Fengyun Sports Company won the Golden State Warriors, the team's specific affairs are still in charge of the original management, Joe Racob is still a shareholder of the Celtics, and it is also management, and the Warriors will not be able to reach this season. Most of the people in Fengyun Sports are also new to the sports investment industry and need more time to learn. However, it is clear that Oracle Stadium needs to be renovated, and a new stadium is in their plans. The contract with Oracle will also end early, and the shell will need to be promoted with the help of the NBA.
Due to the acquisition of the Warriors, Zhou Shi and Larry Ellison have formal communication, and they are also indignant that this guy is about to acquire the sun company, MD!java and a series of excellent open source software are about to be included in Oracle's pocket, although it is not bad for money now, but for a company like sun, Zhou Shi still feels that it is difficult to start. In the past few months, Galaxy Capital has made a big name on Wall Street, but unfortunately it is useless, whether it wants to buy Sun or Java, it has been ruthlessly rejected. They are simply not given the opportunity to negotiate further.
"Mr. Zhou, there's new news!" Chen Wen hurriedly ran over, she should now be regarded as her own intelligence officer, both internally and externally.
"What's the matter, don't worry. Zhou Shi said calmly
"Sun is planning an acquisition to buy an open-source MySQL database company. "Chen Wen
MySQL database Zhou Shi knows, this is the database used by companies such as Time Friends and Guoke, the advanced database technology is undoubted, even in the future, it is one of the most widely used and most popular database software in the world, and the market share is on par with Oracle's database software, and it is also the basic database of most cloud computing.
"Sun didn't buy MySQL, so is he still an independent company?" What Zhou Shi didn't know was that in the history of his previous life, Sun acquired MySQL at the beginning of this year, and later cheapened Oracle. But in this life, I don't know why, until now Sun didn't do it.
"Call Pichai over!" Zhou Shi immediately ordered
"I already called someone to inform Dean Pichai before I came" Chen Wen, Pichai is the president of Time Silicon Valley Research Institute and the CEO of its music, browser and other companies.
Sure enough, Pichai soon arrived at the office, and Zhou Shi was not polite.
"Do you think it makes sense for us to buy MySQL?"
"MySQL is a very good database software that will be a great addition to our future cloud computing development, and I would recommend acquiring it if I could. But if money isn't tight, I'd recommend buying Citrix!"
"Citrix, what kind of company is this!" Zhou Shi was not impressed at all.
"He's a company that provides server and desktop virtualization solutions and is one of VMare's biggest competitors. Their technology is useful for our cloud computing, and they can provide us with the software to build cloud computing. "Pichai
"Wouldn't it work without them? What is the market value of these two companies?"
"Citrix is roughly $3.5 billion, and VMare is a subsidiary of EMC with a market capitalization of around $10 billion. Pichai said embarrassedly
"You don't want to sell me and buy these companies!" Zhou Shi said exaggeratedly
"I think their technology will be useful to us, and if cloud computing goes well, I'm very bullish on their prospects!"
The difference between domestic and foreign is that the perception of cloud computing is completely different, Zhou Shi spent a lot of effort in China, and it took several years to finally promote the development of this matter, and Pichai is different, after Zhou Shi said a few times, he is full of confidence in the future of this project, and most of the other technical experts in the laboratory support the development of this project, even if there are different opinions, more for financial considerations.
"When we have spare money, we can buy some of their stocks, or you can invest in the high-tech industry fund under the Xuanwu Fund. Zhou Shi said that the Xuanwu Fund has set up three funds for biomedicine, retail and consumption, TMT and three major industries, plus a fund with unlimited scope and industry, a total of four funds, which are also open to employees of the American branch, and there are still some people who support them. After all, the legend of Zhou Shi really appeared in front of everyone's eyes. This is also why he is very sure that he can make money, so he will have such a move, and when all the companies stand firm, they will definitely not give them such a chance again.
"Well, I guess it's better to just buy MySQL. "Pichai
Subsequently, Pichai issued an acquisition offer to MySQL on behalf of Time Holdings, and a takeover battle started in Time and Sun House.
Without a doubt, ***** is the simplest and most effective way for these high-tech companies to think of without thinking about it.
However, this time is different from the past, Comrade Ao Guanhai has in fact won the election, and Lu He specially talked to Ao Guanhai for this acquisition, and was guaranteed.
"We will maintain a more open market environment, attract foreign investors (including Huaxia enterprises) to participate in the recovery of the U.S. economy to a greater extent, for those companies that use the Huaxia threat theory at every turn (such as Sun) we have a negative attitude, we hope to speak with facts, rather than let the Huaxia threat theory become an excuse and accomplice for some companies to fear competition!" Ao Guanhai almost explicitly expressed support for the acquisition of Time Company in an interview.
Subsequently, ABC, C and the Internet appeared all kinds of sarcastic voices of Sun, and Pichai also stood up and said: An open source software company can threaten the United States, what else can not threaten the United States? As a financial giant second only to Wall Street's empty gods, Lu He also expressed regret to Sun in the interview, Galaxy Capital has made great sacrifices to maintain the stability of the American financial market, but I didn't expect that some people still regard him as a spy and spy of Huaxia, and a normal commercial acquisition involves too many topics that should not be there.
When the chess game was high, Sun used sharp counterattacks to bring all competition to the negotiating table, but it only had a chance to compete on an equal footing. It can be seen that Time Company needs more efforts to have greater development in the United States.
After sitting down, Zhou Shi realized that they had already talked once at the beginning of the year, and ySQL wanted to exceed this number, but Sun firmly disagreed. The ensuing financial crisis exacerbated MySQL's operational risks, and the funds of several major investors were in trouble. The sale of MySQL appeared in their options, and the offer is now $600 million, almost half the price quoted a year ago. This is Sun's latest offer after Time joined the battlefield. The landlord's family also had no spare money, and Zhou Shi didn't want to fight with them for a price, so he found Larry Ellison of Oracle.
