Chapter 140 The choice of tubing
A few days of happy life made Thursday a little reluctant to go abroad. The YouTube affair really upset him, and he wanted to sell him and keep him at the same time. There has been a fierce confrontation in my mind, and no one can convince anyone.
In the past few days, the propaganda of the soldiers' surprise attacks has only been adjusted in China, and the publicity and promotion of the Internet have been increased. Slowly there has been an improvement, in fact, the main reason is that the TV station chosen to broadcast the time is wrong. Mango Channel didn't watch this drama, they sold it to Yanjing Channel, and it was broadcast at 10 o'clock. Fortunately, it's not too bad, and the copyright of the second round of broadcasts is not in a hurry to sell, wait and talk about it, a good TV series, he doesn't believe that no one buys it.
originally wanted Li Ying to accompany him to the United States, but there are still more than two months to go until 2007, and the launch of Guoke mobile phone must also be coordinated and prepared. Several companies are recruiting people while focusing on tackling key problems, and if there is no one in the center to coordinate, it is likely that there will be problems. Li Ying's ability cannot be ignored, and it should be said that the learning ability of a genius cannot be ignored. Handed over to her, Zhou Shi was very relieved.
Lu He didn't have time now, Lehman Brothers' unusual behavior in financing attracted his attention, and the two sides still successfully hooked up and reached a series of cooperation agreements. For example, Galaxy Capital is ready to pledge its Baidu and part of Alibaba's shares in cash through Lehman. Aim to lock in two to three years of use, and if the funds are their own, that's fine. When the time comes, let them know what it means to be chow peel.
And in September, the price of crude oil plummeted, falling below $65, which was a full dollar away from the entry price of the Suzaku Fund. What's more, with Zhou Shi's encouragement, they also used financing leverage to short 10,000 lots of crude oil at an average price of $72.5. This time, it really made a big profit, and the profit of nearly 200 million US dollars greatly stimulated the confidence of this rabble, maybe many of them can transform into elites after this time.
Originally, he was going to call a male assistant over this trip, but Li Lingyun strongly requested, and Zhou Shi couldn't refuse, so he had to confirm again:
"Are you really not going to run away with a handsome foreign guy?" Zhou Shi felt uncomfortable when he thought of that Fan Liuyi, he could be regarded as a beauty, he was actually cheaper than a foreigner, and he didn't know how to find him, the fifth diamond king, was many times stronger than those little white faces. Such a watery cabbage was tempted by a handsome blonde guy to follow him to Florida, but he was cheated out of money and sex. Fortunately, after Zhou Shi came back, he asked someone from the company to contact their family, and then found this fool and took him back. No, the company definitely won't want this person.
"What nonsense are you talking about, I'm not Fan Liuyi, am I so stupid?" Li Lingyun
"That's hard to say, who knows if you'll fall for it. But I propose, if you want to run away with a handsome foreign guy, why don't you think about me first!" Zhou Shi leaned in front of her, "Look, I'm also a standard handsome guy, and my abilities in other aspects are not worse than theirs, really!"
"I don't understand what you're saying. Don't tell me!" Li Lingyun covered her face and turned her head
It happened that the company's office director came over and looked at Li Lingyun, who ran out with a red face, and looked at Zhou Shi curiously. Seems to want to know something.
"Director Liu, you have to worry more about my assistant's review, and try not to let Fan Liuyi's matter happen again. And after I left, I assisted Lei Junlei as much as possible, and he tried to meet his needs. Zhou Shi instructed again.
“……”
When he set off, Zhou Shi's assistant team had three people, Li Lingyun with a man and a woman. That woman, who is relatively old, Zhou Shi asked for her from Starlight, and is going to take her to the United States to study and exercise, and be responsible for her future image design. Man, it's supposed to be an errand run.
After finding a serviced apartment again and resting for a day, Zhou Shi came to YouTube.
As soon as he walked into the company, Zhou Shi felt a dignified atmosphere. However, I still greeted those employees I knew cordially, and went straight to Cheng Shijun and others.
There was a faint voice from behind: "Simon is finally here, we don't have to be so entangled"
"Why?" someone asked, puzzled
"Simon is the majority shareholder, and ......"
Zhou Shi didn't hear the rest of the words, thinking that it should be mostly praised.
"You're back," Cheng Shijun
"How do I feel that something is wrong with the company, is something going on?" Zhou Shi
"Google has officially offered us an acquisition," Chad Hewley said
"Oh, they finally spoke, how much are we worth?" Zhou Shi asked disapprerovingly
"Two billion!" Judd Karim replied succinctly
"That's so much, or we sell it!" Zhou Shi said exaggeratedly
"Ah~~" The three of them widened their eyes and looked at Zhou Shi in surprise.
"What's the matter, selling it at such a high price is also an option" Zhou Shi didn't care about them, moved out a chair, and sat down.
"Did you really decide to sell?" Karim
"I said, it's one of my options. We can now analyze together whether to sell or not to sell, and how our environment will change!"
"I think everyone should know that there is no free lunch in the world, and when they buy us, they will definitely put forward various requirements, such as continuing to stay in the company, how many years they can't engage in the video industry, or there are performance requirements, and after passing all kinds of tests, we will get this equity completely. Just like the performance bet we signed with them before, if you don't meet the requirements, you will take less sugar. ”
Ignoring their laughter, Zhou Shi continued.
"So for the foreseeable future, we're still in our industry, and the only change is that we're no longer the boss and don't have to worry about bandwidth storage every month. Oh, no, for our monthly income will increase. ”
"However, I still feel a little unwilling," Cheng Shijun said, and He Li nodded approvingly.
Why don't we take a closer look at the difference between YouTube being acquired by Google and operating independently. "Zhou Shi
"Yes!" said all three at the same time
"Then let's gather all the staff to discuss together, let's have a brainstorm!" Zhou Shi
"No problem. ”
YouTube has nearly 100 employees at its headquarters in the United States, and only about 200 employees in its subsidiaries in other countries. Now, however, apparently, only people from the American headquarters are involved. Zhou Shi presided over the temporary meeting.
"As you may know, Google wants to buy us, and the latest offer is $2 billion, and of course there are some other conditions, but I think those conditions are not difficult for us, and we will ignore them for the time being. Now we're going to talk about the pros and cons of our choice to be acquired and run independently, so please help and share your opinions. Zhou Shi said, took out a blackboard, and began to write and draw on it.
The benefits and disadvantages of Google's acquisition: calculated according to the weights of 0.5 for the company, 0.3 for employees, and 0.2 for shareholders.
Then there are the pros and cons of operating independently, or the same weight ratio as above.
There are more people who express their opinions than expected, and these elites are much more accustomed to speaking by name than those in the country. Enterprises are also society, and if you don't take the initiative to participate, how can others know that you are capable. There are always a lot of people who complain that there are thousands of horses in the world, but Bole does not have them often. MMP, you didn't run out, who knows if you can run or not.
