"So, I don't need to use any so-called tricks to get into Sohu!" After Zeng Fuhu reminded him, Zhang Siyuan said loudly.

After Zhang Siyuan finished speaking, the entire press conference venue suddenly quieted down and was no longer noisy.

Seeing that it was quiet below, Zhang Siyuan continued: "This is the end of the explanation of the negative news events of the company in the past two days, and I will announce another news below. ”

Hearing Zhang Siyuan's words, the reporters at the press conference stared at Zhang Siyuan one by one. According to the general situation, when there is negative news in each company, there will be other news to divert people's attention from the press conference in addition to explanations. These reporters are now waiting for Zhang Siyuan to make a move, to see what method Zhang Siyuan is going to use to save Sohu, which is gradually heading towards the abyss.

Due to the bursting of the Internet bubble, Sohu has a hard time. After that, there was a large area of negative news, and it can be said that Sohu has not only received widespread attention in the past two days, but is also in dire straits.

Zhang Siyuan paused, and then said: "In view of my limited energy, I cannot manage two large companies, Sohu Group and Times Technology, at the same time. In order not to affect the operation and development of the two companies, I have completed negotiations with a company in Xiangjiang to transfer 51% of Sohu shares in my hands at a price of US$500 million. The contract was signed yesterday afternoon and came into effect on the same day. I have stepped down as chairman of Sohu Group, and that's all for today's press conference, thank you. ”

After Zhang Siyuan finished speaking, Zeng Fuhu walked behind Zhang Siyuan and pushed Zhang Siyuan's wheelchair to the outside of the press conference. Zeng Fuhu was really afraid that Zhang Siyuan's news would be too vigorous, and then he would be blocked by these crazy media and couldn't get out of the press conference.

It's just that Zeng Fuhu was still too naïve, and after Zhang Siyuan finished saying the news, the media present suddenly let out a noisier exclamation than they had just known that Zhang Siyuan was the chairman of Sohu and Times Technology. After exclaiming, when they saw Zeng Fuhu pushing Zhang Siyuan's wheelchair to the rostrum, those reporters also reacted, and they didn't care about the order of the venue, and they all surrounded this side one by one.

"Zhang Dong, why did you suddenly transfer Sohu shares at this sensitive moment, is it really because of limited energy?" A reporter who reacted the fastest and crowded at the front held the microphone in front of Zhang Siyuan, eager to stuff the microphone into Zhang Siyuan's mouth.

The reporter next to him was similar, and asked Zhang Siyuan: "Dong Zhang, which company did you negotiate with?"

"Zhang Dong, Zhang Dong, may I ask if you stepped down as chairman of Sohu because of some blows. Another reporter also asked.

......

At this time, Gu Yongqiang and others on the rostrum were completely ignored by these reporters. When they heard what Zhang Siyuan said, they were all dumbfounded. Gu Yongqiang and they didn't expect that Zhang Siyuan officially attended Sohu's press conference for the first time today, which gave them a big shock.

It can be said that Gu Yongqiang and they were able to take the position, and they were all pulled up by Zhang Siyuan. Now Zhang Siyuan has quietly sold all the shares of Sohu, and it can be said that Zhang Siyuan directly abandoned them.

At this time, Gu Yongqiang and others also suddenly realized why Zhang Siyuan was not worried at all when a large area of negative news appeared in Sohu yesterday. It turned out that Zhang Siyuan had already transferred all the shares of Sohu, so it was no wonder that he looked like he had nothing to do with himself and hung high. It's just that what they can't figure out is why Zhang Siyuan suddenly transferred Sohu's shares, could it be that some of those reports are true?

As for Zhang Siyuan's entry into Sohu, they don't know what the reason is. only knew that without any warning, Zhang Yangchao disappeared from Sohu. After that, Zhang Siyuan became the owner of Sohu and carried out a large wave of reforms.

The water under the rostrum was surrounded by reporters, Zeng Fuhu tried his best to push the microphone in front of Zhang Siyuan away, but unfortunately the power of one person at this time was narrow. The crazy reporters didn't care whether Zhang Siyuan answered the question or not, the microphone was placed in front of Zhang Siyuan, and he asked one question after another.

In the end, with the help of the security guards outside, Zeng Fuhu and Zhang Siyuan successfully walked outside the press conference. It's just that when I walked outside, both of them were soaking wet. The reporters who were left behind also remembered Gu Yongqiang and others on the rostrum at this time, and rushed up to interview them again.

Zeng Fuhu, who had already left the venue, pushed Zhang Siyuan back to his office, and after Zeng Fuhu closed the door, Zhang Siyuan said to Zeng Fuhu: "Mr. Zeng, I have announced the news, and everything below depends on you." I won't stay here, after all, I'm not from Sohu anymore. ”

"I'll send you down. Hearing Zhang Siyuan say this, Zeng Fuhu couldn't care about wiping his sweat, and hurriedly said.

Zhang Siyuan waved his hand: "No, Ye Wudao is waiting outside." ”

Zeng Fuhu didn't insist anymore, and asked Zhang Siyuan to call Ye Wudao in and push him away. The news announced by Zhang Siyuan just now is too amazing, and he will be busy for the next period of time. After all, it takes a long time to explain to the company's shareholders and executives, and these are all things that he, as a president, should do.

Because they knew the situation at the press conference, Zhao Jiadi and Chen Fusheng did not hide in the shadows anymore, but appeared in the open to protect Zhang Siyuan, in case those crazy reporters blocked Zhang Siyuan again. After sending Zhang Siyuan to the Mercedes-Benz S600, they returned to the car they rented, and walked slowly behind the Mercedes-Benz S600.

By the time the two cars left Sohu's headquarters, various media outlets were already editing the scripts of Sohu's press conference. After all, whoever is in the media, who has the first-hand news, the first report is the first opportunity. At the press conference, the reporters had already sent the news from the press conference back to their respective newspapers or TV stations.

By the time Zhang Siyuan was pushed out of Pudong Airport by Ye Wudao two hours later, what had happened at Sohu's press conference had already made headlines in various newspapers and news.

No reporter cares about Sohu's negative news, and all newspapers and news are discussing one person, and that is Zhang Siyuan.

In the newsstands in the streets and alleys of Yanjing, people who often buy newspapers found that today's Yanjing Evening News was actually sent out in advance. People who bought the newspaper saw that on the first page of the Yanjing Evening News, a line of headlines with a big picture was added: The youngest billionaire, the next Li Chaoren.

Curious people opened the newspaper and saw the specific report. The photo is Zhang Siyuan's photo, and the report is Zhang Siyuan's worth and what happened at the Sohu press conference. The people who read the report were speechless for a long time, after all, in the era when tens of thousands of dollars are a huge amount of money, how terrifying it must be for a billionaire in his twenties.

People who are watching the news also find that the previous negative news on Sohu is gone. Most of the news is reporting a person named Zhang Siyuan, who was originally uninterested in this person, only after watching the news did he know why so many TV stations were reporting such a person.

Zhang Siyuan, who returned to Shanghai, did not expect that this would be the case, and of course Zhang Siyuan did not know the current situation. After all, he had just gotten off the plane, and no one had told him about these things. This public appearance was decided by Zhang Siyuan himself, and Zhang Siyuan felt that he should also come to the forefront. After the actions of Times Technology, he is no longer suitable to stay behind the scenes.

At the same time, in the office of Ding Sanshi, the headquarters of Yanjing NetEase, Ding Sanshi, who has been paying attention to the development of the Sohu situation. After hearing that Zhang Siyuan had stepped down as chairman of Sohu, he laughed proudly.

After laughing, he also dialed Ma Tenghua's phone: "Brother Ma, do you see it?" Zhang Siyuan really offended the big man this time, and he didn't even want Sohu. ”

Ma Tenghua on the other end of the phone was not happy, and Ma Tenghua naturally knew the news. Ding Sanshi can be happy, but he can't. Zhang Siyuan transferred Sohu shares, and with $500 million in cash in hand, he was even more sad than Tencent, which was not as good as Times Technology, in terms of funds. Not to mention that Tencent's funds are already very tight now, but the opponent has a lot of cash, how can Ma Tenghua be happy.

Ding Sanshi also sensed that Ma Tenghua's mood was wrong, and asked Ma Tenghua with some curiosity: "Brother Ma, why don't you sound very happy?"

After Ma Tenghua told Ding Sanshi what he was worried about, Ding Sanshi said nonchalantly: "Brother Ma, you think too much. Don't you want to think about it, why did Zhang Siyuan sell Sohu shares? That's offending people, what he wants to do now is to be a low-key person, who knows if the big man will be angry with Times Technology. If you make Times Technology so high-profile again, it may be a good thing for you when the time comes. ”

When Ma Tenghua heard Ding Sanshi say this, it was difficult to refute. It's just that in my heart, I despise Ding Sanshi, Times Technology is different from Sohu, which is so easy to get. Tencent has been fighting with Times Technology for so long, and it doesn't think that there can be any small tricks to curb the development of Times Technology. The portal has its limitations, and it's really good to put it together. But instant messaging software is not so easy to remediate.

And everything is just Ding Sanshi's speculation, in case the big man in Ding Sanshi's mouth is not ready to continue to deal with Zhang Siyuan, then the $500 million fund in Zhang Siyuan's hand will have too great an impact on Times Technology. Again, the impact on Tencent is even greater.

Ding Sanshi found that his persuasion of Ma Tenghua did not have an effect, and he also felt that Ma Tenghua was disappointed, so he hung up the phone after saying two sentences.

Ding Sanshi, who hung up the phone, thought about it, then took out his mobile phone and dialed a call: "Boss, Zhang Siyuan has left Sohu, should we get back the shares we exchanged with Tencent?"
