"BOSS, are you really going to work with eBaY?"
Chen Chuliang had just finished talking to Meg Whitman on the phone.
Lao Xiao was next to him, and he heard him finish talking to Meg Whitman on the other end of the phone, this was the first time Lao Xiao heard that the boss was going to cooperate with eBay, and he was a little surprised to ask why he did this.
Chen Chuliang didn't make it clear to Lao Xiao in advance, and now he contacted Meg Whitman, and he was not afraid to tell Lao Xiao his intentions: "Cooperation is a win-win situation, if eBay is willing to cooperate with us, we can at least spend less money to do things." I can also find out if eBay is determined to acquire PayPal. ”
Lao Xiao nodded after understanding: "However, in this way, our control of PayPal will be subject to others." ”
Chen Chuliang said: "It doesn't matter....doing business is virtual and real, we can cooperate with eBay, or not....maybe, we can still get a big bargain with such a false shot, you look at Lao Xiao, if eBay is willing to sing a play with us, it is eBay who does us a favor." As for cooperation, hehe....just a piece of waste paper, in this history, how many contracts are there, and it is a minority to be invalidated with one sentence?"
Lao Xiao still didn't understand what kind of medicine was sold in the BOSS gourd, but seeing that he was confident, he thought that BOSS never did something uncertain, and he was dealing with the acquisition of PayPal, so he let bOSS operate it himself.
"BoSS, are you trying to fake it?"
Lao Xiao also said the idiom that Meg Whitman said to Chen Chuliang earlier.
Chen Chuliang didn't break it, just nodded: "The false Tao can be cut down, or it can be really borrowed from the Dao....Anyway, no matter what, we won't suffer." Moreover, I have never liked to suffer. ”
Lao Xiao probably understood... BOSS said that it completely puts promising technology in the active position, and it all depends on how eBay does it.
……
The other side.
Silicon Valley, USA, eBay Inc.
Meg Whitman after receiving a call from Chen Chuliang.
A meeting was immediately convened with all the top executives of eBay to discuss the reacquisition of PayPal.
eBay has been talking about acquiring PayPal for more than half a year, everyone's patience has long been worn out, and with the price of PayPal rising... The people at eBay didn't want to talk about it anymore, so they let PayPal love it, and eBay hung them for two days.
Moreover, everyone also knows the news that Peter Tiel went to Huaxia.
However, as long as Meg Whitman doesn't move, they don't move.
Now, Meg Whitman suddenly informs everyone on eBay that there is a meeting, and everyone guesses that it must be about 0Paypal.
Sure enough, at the meeting, Meg Whitman sent a signal to eBay's senior management to cooperate with Youwei Technology.
Of course, for the Internet companies in Silicon Valley in the United States, the Chinese Internet companies are backward countries that are still riding donkeys in their eyes.
So much so that Meg Whitman announced that she was cooperating with a Chinese company, and the executives present laughed.
"Did I hear me right, Executive Meg? We eBay are going to work with a Chinese Internet company? Hahaha, that's the biggest joke of the year in Silicon Valley. ”
A high-level executive said that it was very funny, and he also laughed without giving face on the spot.
Another senior executive said: "I have always hated my Chinese counterparts, and I heard media reports that this is a country that likes to steal other people's products." I'm sorry to work with them, I can't afford to lose this person. ”
Some people immediately added: "Cooperation? What are you kidding? Are China's Internet companies worthy? The whole Silicon Valley, look at it, who can look down on China's Internet companies?"
There are also those who do not cooperate: "It is impossible to cooperate....Huaxia enterprises even if they sell to us eBay, we still have to consider the market." Just like a few days ago, Xinglang, a listed company of Huaxia on NASDAQ, contacted us to talk about the acquisition of their eBay.com, and we all dragged it on....other Huaxia companies don't know about it, and they don't want to know about it. Executive Meg, are you sure you're not joking?"
In the same way, someone solemnly said: "President Meg, you'd better make sure before calling us to a meeting...."
"Yes, yes, yes... Inexplicable cooperation? ”
eBay senior management meeting.
When Meg Whitman offered to cooperate with Youwei Technology.
The entire company's top brassiers, with the exception of a few who expressed support for Meg Whitman's decision. More people told Meg Whitman that they didn't want to cooperate.
Meg Whitman wants to come out with the momentum of overwhelming everyone to be able to block the doubts of these people, she knows that she has not enough prestige to join eBay, and the company's management is not very obedient, that is, she uses a high-pressure policy to fulfill her orders and be able to carry out.
"I think our cooperation with Huaxia Internet companies is a win-win, if any of you feel that you don't want to cooperate, well, you go to Musk of PayPal to see if Musk is willing to agree to you, 800 million dollars to sell PayPal to you." If someone has the ability, I am in this position, he will sit. ”
Meg Whitman was furious.
Finally, I saw a win-win cooperation, and the management actually pushed back and saw the benefits of cooperation at all. She even said that how about Huaxia Internet enterprises, she thinks that this group of talents is the frog at the bottom of the well....Huaxia Internet enterprises, there are conformists, but there are also those who are at the forefront of the times, just like Youwei Technology....
Some were overwhelmed by Meg Whitman's questioning, and the question was dumb and they all kept their mouths shut.
Meg Whitman is, after all, an eBay executive.
She is the head of the entire eBay.
Her words can still make many people get out.
The atmosphere was as silent as death.
It's nothing more than an unpleasant quarrel between eBay executives and a Huaxia Internet company.
At this time, a senior executive who often talks about business with other companies looked at Meg Whitman and said: "Mr. Mei, since Huaxia Company has come to the door to cooperate, why don't we eBay use this Huaxia Internet company, and wait until they offend Peter Thiel and others who will PayPal in Huaxia, and eBay will finally reap the benefits of the fisherman? I think this is the best way....It's not that I look down on Huaxia Internet companies, but if we choose to cooperate, I'm afraid we will be laughed to death by our Silicon Valley peers.....
The senior executive analyzed why eBay's people refused to cooperate, and at the same time came up with a very immoral plan, that is, to sell the Chinese Internet company.....
Meg Whitman frowned when she heard this, isn't this the one who made them eBay a treacherous?
However, there are not a few things in the mall that verbally promise to cooperate, but there is a backlash behind it.
Meg Whitman looked around and saw that almost everyone was in favor of the proposal.
Now, she continues to assert herself that she must be trustworthy, that is, she is working against the entire company's top management.
In desperation, Meg Whitman had no choice but to agree to everyone's decision.
It's just that doing so is probably the first thing she has ever agreed to, and finally released the pigeons....I'm afraid it's the only black history in her career.
