Netscape's employees ate one after another.
Jim Clark and another Netscape founder, Mark Anderson, got together for dinner and said with a smile, "Do you know what's going on today? ”
Mark Anderson, who was eating medium-rare steak, looked up, "Hasn't Meidi Online been talking to us about the acquisition?
"It's not them, it's Joaquin Capital. Jim laughed.
Mark Anderson was surprised: "Joaquin Capital, the investment company that sells IMBD and Junglee for sky-high prices?"
While they were talking, Maddy Carton, the company's vice president, walked over and said, "Man, what are you talking about?"
Jim laughed and said the matter, and teased: "That Joaquin Capital is just funny, he actually said that he wanted to buy Netscape, and I was tricked by me." ”
Maddy Caton was stunned for a moment, and laughed, "It's really arrogant, although our Netscape is not as big as before, it is not something that a junk investment company can buy." ”
Mark Anderson worried: "Joaquin Capital has some strength, Jim, is it okay for you to play with them?"
"What can be the problem? Huajin Capital has also risen recently, a small company, I don't care about it yet. Jim said dismissively.
"Mark, you are worried too much, we just need to seize the opportunity to raise the value of the company and the US imperialism online share exchange, then we will still be rich, as for those small shareholders and shareholders live or die is none of our business. Maddy Caton bites on his sandwich.
Mark Anderson didn't speak again, but he felt that something was wrong in his heart, and suddenly saw Bill Peter, another executive of the company, come over with a plate.
“boss。 Bill Pitt approached with a smile.
Jim was excited, "Bill, come and sit next to me, and I'll tell you something interesting." ”
When Bill Pitt sat down, Jim said the story again, as if it had cleared his recent gloom.
Bill Pitt also laughed, "And such an arrogant company? I support Jim." As he said that, he looked at Mark Anderson, "Mark, you're being too cautious. ”
Mark Anderson shook his head and said, "It's always right to be cautious. ”
"If it were an investment company like Sequoia Capital, I wouldn't do that. Jim said nonchalantly: "What is Huajin Capital? Are you still afraid that they will make some small moves behind their backs, and if they have the ability, they will rush here, no matter how sluggish our Netscape is, the hard value of the company is here, don't be afraid, what about playing with them? I will play if they come again next time!"
Mark Anderson said vaguely: "There's no need, don't the Orientals say that harmony makes money?"
Bill Pitt and Maddy Caton laughed at Mark Anderson again, and then they kept chatting with Jim about Joaquin Capital and making international jokes.
Naturally, Bill Pitt didn't let go of telling his colleagues about this kind of funny story, so it wasn't long before many colleagues in the restaurant found out about it, and everyone burst into laughter.
"Isn't it?"
"Huajin Capital wants to buy us?"
"Oh God, I heard the biggest joke of the century!"
"I've heard a little about that Joaquin Capital, it seems to be a bit of strength, but to say that the acquisition of our Netscape is completely fantastical, does this company still think that they are Defengjie or Sequoia Capital? As long as the directors bite the bullet and don't sell it, even if they break the sky, they can't buy it, provided that they can break the sky, hahaha. ”
"You're so humorous, Joaquin Capital has that ability?"
"Yes, it can't be, it's a whimsical idea. ”
……
at home.
Around six o'clock in the afternoon.
After returning from California, Zhang Wei held his mobile phone and said into the phone: "Report that Netscape lost 88 million in the fourth quarter of last year. "As soon as I opened the door with the key, I was greeted by the aroma of chicken soup, which was a little different from ordinary chicken soup.
Fei Luo's surprised voice came from the other end of the phone, "Netscape lost 88 million in the fourth quarter of last year?
"Coming back?" Leng Yan sat at the living room table with an apron on, cutting lotus roots.
"Yo, dinner is sumptuous, chicken soup and lotus root? I'll tell you later. Zhang Wei responded with a smile, leaned on the sofa, and said to the mobile phone: "Even if you report, I can't say anything from the side where I keep Netscape." ”
Of course, this news is reliable, although Netscape is hidden for the time being, it can be exploded after being acquired by US Imperialism Online.
Fei Luo gritted his teeth, "Okay, then I'll let people report on the portal, what should I do next?"
Zhang Wei said unequivocally: "For the time being, let's wait for Netscape's stock price to fall." ”
The two exchanged messages on the phone, and Leng Yan went in and out of the kitchen many times.
After chatting for a while, I hung up the phone.
Zhang Wei rubbed his hands, "I have a good mouth tonight." ”
"Yes, lotus root corn chicken soup pot, stir-fried coriander with mutton sauce, crescent moon bone cuttlefish soup and a few other dishes, go wash your hands first. Cheng Lin brought the dishes from the kitchen.
"Huh?" Zhang Wei was puzzled, why are the names of these dishes a little weird? He didn't think much about it, he washed his hands and walked to the table to start, first sandwiched a small piece of chicken and put it in his mouth, and enjoyed it, "Well, it's delicious, this chicken is really delicious!"
Leng Yan and Du Yujuan also brought the dishes to the table, and soon the table was already full of all kinds of dishes.
"These are all small cold therapeutic dishes. Du Yujuan said with a smile.
Cheng Lin took the chopsticks and asked him, "Son, do you think these therapeutic dishes can be sold well on the side of the American imperialists?"
Zhang Wei eats a meal, Chinese food? Meidi people may not like to eat Chinese food, right? He said perfunctorily: "Maybe it's okay." ”
Leng Yan asked with concern, "How about going to California?"
The other two women also looked over.
"There hasn't been a breakthrough yet, but I've discussed with Mr. Ferro an idea, and we should see the results tonight. Zhang Wei was very happy to eat the food, not to mention, these dishes were really delicious, "Mom, aren't you going to order Western food therapy?"
Cheng Lin rolled his eyes and said, "Which of us will cook Western food? She put the steamed pears in the bowl with the shells, "Don't change the topic, what kind of netscape did you say you were going to buy with Yahu earlier?"
Zhang Wei said: "Say, the other party didn't agree, we are going to use some means." He told him what happened in Netscape, and he was his own person anyway, and he didn't miss anything about being molested by Jim.
Du Yujuan said angrily: "Why is this person like this? If you don't agree, you won't agree, and you're still playing tricks?"
Cheng Lin was also very dissatisfied, "That is to say, how can there be such a person?"
"Actually, it's nothing. Zhang Wei was not upset, but laughed.
Leng Yan, who was eating, raised her head and looked at it silently, and her eyes also showed dissatisfaction with Jim.
Cheng Lin answered: "Isn't it? Isn't there an old saying in the ancestors? Harmony makes money, but what's the matter with this Jim? It's too much to disagree with the acquisition and tease you, not to mention that you are my son, even if I stand in the perspective of a bystander, I can't bear this breath!"
Zhang Wei smiled and said: "Of course I can't swallow this breath, I have already thought of a way to treat him." Originally, the hostile takeover was still a little guilty, but Jim did this, Zhang Wei completely dispelled the idea of guilt, buddy asked you to discuss it with you, and you treated me with this attitude? Anyway, the acquisition of Netscape was originally imperative, and these episodes only boosted his confidence.
Do you like to play, don't you?
After eating.
After the shower, go back to the bedroom.
Zhang Wei was just turning on the computer, the door creaked and was pushed open, he looked back and saw that it was cold, so he didn't think much about going back to China to see the boot screen.
Leng Yan walked over in a nightgown and pulled a chair to sit down, "Are you sure?"
Zhang Wei said: "Why are you not sure? should we make a bet that I can finally buy Netscape, what do you lose to me?"
Leng Yan glanced at him, "Don't bet." ”
Zhang Wei felt bored, "It's not interesting at all." ”
Leng Yan's eyes were watery, "How do you want to bet?"
Zhang Wei blinked, "In this way, if I can buy Netscape, you can't refuse anything you promise me at will, I mean anything, of course, you won't be asked to do murder and arson." He laughed evilly.
Leng Yan also heard the subtext, and she blushed, "Okay, what if you lose?"
"If you lose, I promise you one thing, and anything. Zhang Wei moved the mouse and clicked on the web page.
"Okay. Leng Yan slapped the board, and then said, "You are lustful." ”
Zhang Wei said speechlessly: "Where am I colored? I just kissed you a few times and touched ......."
Leng Yan hurriedly interrupted: "Stop." ”
"Isn't that what you said first?" Zhang Wei said.
"I don't want to talk about it now. Leng Yan also looked at the computer.
Zhang Wei: "......" what you said, first mention the conversation and then say you don't want to say, wait for buddy to take down the netscape, see if I don't ask you to do something more difficult than this, yes, this time I want you to put on a difficult pose, I didn't see anything last time I was blind in the black light, buddy is not limited to this is satisfied!
The URL was entered.
Leng Yan came over to watch it together.
Zhang Wei felt a fragrant fragrance, "Can't you see clearly when you get so close?"
"Didn't know English. Leng Yan didn't feel embarrassed, "You teach me." ”
Zhang Wei sighed and said: "That's a good feeling, you teach me to practice martial arts and I will teach you English." ”
"Well, swap. Leng Yan pulled the chair and sat a little closer, and her firm chest inadvertently touched Zhang Wei's arm.
Leng Yan just took a shower, and it was naturally impossible to wear pajamas inside, and the flesh of the chest rested on Zhang Wei's arm, and a piece of softness pressed into it, which made Zhang Wei's heart intoxicated.
"That's what Yahu meant. ”
"Well, Y-A-H-O-O, Yahu. ”
"Later, I'll watch the news and teach you. ”
Zhang Wei searched for news about Netscape on Yahu's portal, but it didn't come out yet, so he had to keep refreshing it, and he kept teaching Leng Yan to read English and explain the meaning.
Leng Yan, who was studying very seriously, suddenly asked, "Why do you keep refreshing?"
"One of my ideas this time is to watch a little bit of the news, about Netscape, to see the impact of the news. Zhang Wei said.
Leng Yan sighed and didn't say anything more.
Five minutes passed.
Ten minutes passed.
When it was refreshed I don't know how many times, the news on the portal suddenly changed, and Zhang Wei said happily: "That's it, hey, the efficiency is quite high, see how it works." ”
Leng Yan listened to him translate.
……
Meanwhile.
Many people who follow the financial and technology sectors on the Yahu portal saw Netscape News, and then everyone laughed again!
"Netscape has been scandalized again?"
"Anyway, it's all a trivial matter. ”
"Oh, Shet, what's going on this time? Which employee did that bastard Jim hit?"
"I've been hearing the news about Netscape these days, and I'm already feeling visually tired, if I can really break the news, it's nothing, but it's all inconsequential smear!"
"You have the ability to break the news!"
"I don't even want to watch this news, Yahu is boring enough, and she actually reports negative news about Netscape again and again. ”
Netizens didn't buy it at all.
Then, someone clicked in!
The above article reported some objective information about Netscape, and at the bottom of the story, the conversation changed, "...... The 'browser war' between Netscape and Microsoft ended in failure, with the stock price peaking at $171, which is a height that has never been attained since, and we have realized that Microsoft has an overwhelming advantage, and the Netscape carnival is over, and since Microsoft's browser has been greatly improved, it is now as good as Netscape's. ”
"In addition, there is little incentive for computer users, especially those who are new to download Netscape Browser and install it on the Windows platform, for the simple reason that IE is already pre-installed in the system and there are no performance issues, and now large service providers - including AOL, Puserve and AT& amp; TWorld - Ditching the Netscape Navigator browser in favor of IE as the browser of choice. ”
"Because of this, from 1996 to the present, Netscape Browser has gradually lost market share, according to exclusive information, Netscape lost as much as 88 million US dollars in the fourth quarter of 1997!"
At this moment, all dissatisfaction seemed to have stopped!
Netizens who saw this news stared blankly at the content on the news!
……
Many shareholders are also accustomed to staying in front of the computer, they are concerned about the information of the stock company they bought, and everyone saw it at the first moment when this news came out.
"Hey, there's news again!"
"It's the one who hacked my big netscape again?"
"I'm used to it, how can it be dark? I don't ......"
Immediately, Netscape's loss of 88 million in the fourth quarter of last year came into view!
When everyone saw this report, they were all stunned, especially those who bought Netscape stocks, they only felt dizzy, and they rubbed their eyes several times to make sure that it was not fake, and their faces were green now!
What about the bottoming out?
Now the stock price is only 40 US dollars!
After such a scandal broke out again, these stockholders seem to have seen a terrifying scene, what will the stock price of Netscape fall into next? Will it become a K-line chart on the computer in the morning and an electrocardiogram in the hospital in the afternoon?
Definitely!
I'll fuck your sister, Netscape kills people!
Many people hurriedly picked up the phone and asked to sell stocks!
As soon as the news of "Breaking the News -- Netscape Conceals the Truth" appeared, the previous dissatisfaction and ridicule of Yahu's report seemed to come to an abrupt end in the blink of an eye, and many people watched the news with shocked eyes, and many stockholders who bought stocks read it with a shocked gaze! Yahu's portal is very famous in the United States, and its influence is simply overwhelming!
Immediately, there were countless comments under this news.
"It's horrible!"
"Netscape actually deceived shareholders!"
"I lost 88 million in the fourth quarter of last year!"
"My God, who dug up this news?"
"I don't know, since Yahu dares to report it in a grand manner, it's obvious that I'm not afraid of Netscape looking for trouble, that is to say...... The truth of this news is very great! What terrible news! Netscape shareholders are about to collapse!"
"Shetshet, I almost had a heart attack, despicable Netscape!!"
"Bastard Jim doesn't die well!"
"I'm going to kill that bastard! I can't fucking trade overnight now, I have to wait until after 22 o'clock, my beautiful knife is all for Netscape! No, I'm going to stay by the phone, and I must dump Netscape's stock overnight!"
"Damn Netscape!"
"I'm already crying!"
"Me too, tears don't know how to fall!"
"Hahaha, you all bought it when the Netscape stock price was low last year, right? Want to buy the bottom? Now you know that the company's mud can't support the wall, right? Go and watch the phone and trade it overnight!"
"Trash Netscape!"
"I shouldn't trust Netscape!"
"No matter what, we must sell all the stocks of Netscape!
"Yes, yes, I'm in a mess, I must throw away Netscape's stocks, otherwise I may really lose all my money!"
"Netscape is rubbish! Hurry up and go bankrupt! It's the first time I've seen such a garbage company!"
"The loss of 88 million has been concealed!"
Many Netscape shareholders have gone berserk, shouting to throw away Netscape's stocks, and they are denouncing it with red eyes as if they have been beaten with chicken blood!
It's still buzzing online!
The shocking scandal that broke out in Netscape on the Yahu portal in just two or three hours, and the number of hits soared at an incredible degree for everyone!
50,000 hits!
500,000 hits!
One million hits!
These are all real clicks, and those who bought Netscape stock are full of mourning, and there is schadenfreude from onlookers!
If it was another company that broke out such a big scandal, it might not have so much attention, but now it is Netscape that broke out such a big scandal, and the browser empire company that was once able to threaten Microsoft's hegemony, although the sun is setting now, but as the saying goes, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, plus many people bought the bottom when Netscape's stock price was at a trough last year, and the attention was naturally high, which directly detonated the entire US imperialist network!
"Netscape lost $88 million in the fourth quarter of 1997!"
This night, because of this sentence, many people in the entire US imperialist have a premonition that the former browser empire may be about to fall! )
