Yahoo really has no money now, and if he has money, he still wants to develop cloud computing, but unfortunately Zhou Shi is not short of money to start a business, and it will be different after development and growth. In the case that no one is optimistic, Yahoo is not favored even if it is funded. Even if Moody's could be a little accommodating, it wouldn't help unless Zhou Shi lent Yahoo money himself. In desperation, the sale of assets, especially those acquired at a huge cost, has become a top priority, many things are sold at a discount, and the loss of goodwill is very serious. Fortunately, Yahoo is still making money, and in a few years, it will have to make ends meet by selling Alibaba's shares.

Zhou Shi finally left Yahoo with the three major business segments of portal and news, artificial intelligence and search, instant messaging, email and picture social, plus Yelp and D.

The products that Zhou Shi and Tim Morse said were going to stay were Flickr and Yahoo Translate, and Flickr was the veteran of the picture social circle. Although it was later surpassed by Instagram and most of the original team members of this product have left, there is a future with Zhou Shi. Isn't it just to take a photo, say a few words, and then share it, isn't it very difficult? Yahoo Translate is not very good now, Google's machine translation should be the best, Baidu Translate that scum really doesn't want to say, Zhou Shi wants to check Wikipedia with Baidu Translate most of them can't translate, Google is different, it can be accurate and fast. What's the use of translation? And it's mostly free, and it's certainly useless for a small company that doesn't have an ideal, and it's useful for any big international Internet company. No one knows what the world will be like in the future, but the more connected the world is, and the more people communicate with each other, the more important the function of translation will be.

"Okay, I see, except for these two, the rest of the list can be sold!" Tim Morse

Zhou Shi actually looked at these, it seems that many of them have effects, or there will be many effects in the future, and it seems that they can be used immediately after transformation. But when I thought about a series of big investments such as Yelp and Google Brain, I finally gave up.

"Sell it, I don't have an opinion, you can discuss it with other people, if there is no big opposition, just sell it. "Zhou Shi

Tim Morse soon went out, Yahoo still has a lot of things to solve, for example, now Yahoo lacks a chief information security officer, Zhou Shi vaguely remembers that Yahoo had a very serious user information leak incident, it was this information leak that affected Yahoo's billion users, interrupting the possibility of Yahoo's rise. And after the people of time joined, they found that Yahoo's security protection measures were indeed not perfect.

"Alex Stamos!" a headhunting firm that has been working with Zhou Shi for a long time recommended this person to him. Stamos previously served as CTO of ArtemisInternet, a San Francisco-based domain hosting company, and was one of the founders of iSECPartners, a security services and consulting firm. There was another candidate before, Justin Somani, who served as chief information security officer at Symantec, but due to the dispute with Yahoo Ali and the involvement of Zhou Shi, Yahoo has changed a lot. Justin Somani didn't end up succeeding in joining Yahoo. Alex Stamos is a well-known figure in the field of computer security and is one of the main organizers of the security conference TrustyCon. If you look at history, you can see that Justin Somani, the top person in charge of Yahoo information security, may either have limited ability or neglect his duties, and the information leakage of Yahoo Mail is too great.

As one of the legends of the Internet, it was still easy for Yahoo to poach people, and Alex Stamos soon arrived at Yahoo to take up his job.

Yahoo's key and advantageous projects are Yahoo's news portal and email business, these two projects have not been moved, and even if they are moved, they will strengthen their advantages and strengthen internal security. However, Zhou Shi owns 36.7% of Yahoo's shares, plus the position of chairman and CEO, which is similar to the founder in itself, and even the heads of these two powerful departments dare not directly challenge his authority. The name of Yahoo's dictator has resounded all over the Internet these days, and of course, his "10 billion dollar AI dream". This also has the benefit that DeepMind, a newly formed company in the United Kingdom, has mostly turned to Yahoo for investment. Zhou Shi not only privately sponsored, but also bought the company under Yahoo's name, allowing them to focus on the frontiers of AI rather than worrying about the company's profits. While keeping DeepMind independent, they were also invited to participate in the development of Yahoo Brain.

"It's a desperate challenge, and if I fail, I might have to sell Liverpool to someone else!" Zhou Shi joked, this year's Liverpool is almost a phenomenon, dominating the whole of England and Europe, winning the Premier League this season, the English League Cup, the FA Cup, the Champions League, and the great feat of the quadruple. This is a stark contrast to the fact that nothing was achieved a year ago. Construction of the new stadium began at this time, and it could be completed in two to three years, with a dominant result, bringing unimaginable sponsors, and a flock of Chinese and international companies, which greatly eased the financial pressure on Liverpool.

"I think a lot of people are willing to buy this legend!" said Damith Hassabis, a half-Chinese Englishman who is the founder of DeepMind, and Liverpool's name is hard for every Englishman to ignore.

Yahoo's stock price did not fall as expected, and Zhou Shi asked Belranke in confusion.

"We believe that your decision is not due to impulse, Felix of Time is a good proof of this, and we know in detail about your research direction, not the artificial intelligence that everyone understands, not the big cumbersome guy like IBM. "Belankvan

"I don't understand the specific research, but Yahoo is an Internet company, we naturally have to make full use of Internet technology, from my point of view, Yahoo Brain has a great hope of success, and the price of failure is within my tolerance, even if I lose 10 billion US dollars, I am still the richest group of people in the world, this is the root of my daring to take risks, but I didn't expect that there are so many people to support me, I originally wanted to take this opportunity to clean up some investors who are not determined, and increase their shareholdings. "Zhou Shi

"If you're going to increase your shareholding, it's a sad answer to the fact that Yahoo Brain isn't going well!" said Bellakvan

"It's a real dilemma, and if I could, I would still like to succeed. "Zhou Shi

"I wish you the last success!" said Bellakvan

"I wish us success!" Zhou Shibai took a look at the latest chapter of "The Rebirth of the Post-80s Legendary Claw Book House" to read for free for the first time.
