"Mr. Zhang, do you pay attention to the domestic financial channel?" Zhang Siyuan was eating breakfast in the hotel restaurant after washing up, and suddenly received a call from Zeng Fuhu.

Zhang Siyuan said blankly: "No, why do you pay attention to those things? I am busy with so many things now, how can I have time to watch those experts talk about those useful and useless things." Besides, those experts don't necessarily know as much as I do, so why am I wasting that time?"

Zeng Fuhu on the other end of the phone said anxiously: "I'm not asking you to pay attention to those experts, I just want to ask if you have seen the reports of those financial channels." As soon as I got to work, I received a notice from the company's public relations department, saying that the current mainstream financial channels are talking about our Sohu, criticizing our Sohu for being useless, and constantly singing about our Sohu. ”

Zhang Siyuan said indifferently: "Let them go, when Sohu was listed on the NASDAQ, those financial channels were not all boastful, and they couldn't wait to praise Sohu to the sky." This is not Sohu to have something, they can't wait to jump out and slap themselves in the face, what are we going to do with this? Just do your own things well, as long as the people inside our company have been there, Sohu is not what the outside world says. ”

Zhang Siyuan knows that these financial channels must have gotten the performance of Sohu on the US stock NASDAQ, so they will jump out and sing about Sohu. It's just that how can those people understand his thoughts, if his thoughts are so easy for others to guess, then Zhang Siyuan thinks that he just shouldn't work so hard, just use money to smash it.

However, after breakfast, Zhang Siyuan returned to the hotel room, turned on the computer and connected to the Internet to read some reports posted by those financial channels. After reading it, Zhang Siyuan smiled disdainfully. Those experts in various financial channels are purely black for the sake of black. Zhang Siyuan believes that this will definitely not be Mr. Guo's greeting, it should be someone making trouble behind his back.

It's just that Zhang Siyuan doesn't want to pay attention to these beam-jumping clowns. Because these remarks did not have any critical impact on him or Sohu at all, Zhang Siyuan also took it as a joke. If they can go bankrupt because of a few words of Sohu, then Sohu is really over. What do you want him to do after working so hard? What do you want those employees to work hard all day long for the rise of Sohu?

In the Sohu headquarters building, in Zeng Fuhu's office, Zeng Fuhu, who had a sad face, was listening to Gu Yongqiang's complaints: "Mr. Zeng, haven't you thought about it yet? Everyone can see what kind of situation you are in Sohu now, the company's stock price is falling again and again on the NASDAQ, and someone will definitely come out to take responsibility when the time comes." If you don't make a decision earlier, how can you carry the big black cauldron when the time comes?"

Zeng Fuhu sighed: "We all know this in our hearts, but I have my own troubles, don't persuade me, I won't leave Sohu." Even if those shareholders want me to carry the black cauldron, it depends on whether they can put the black cauldron on me!"

Seeing that Zeng Fuhu was still so stubborn, Gu Yongqiang was even more anxious: "Mr. Zeng, why are you so stubborn? Let's go to Times Technology to defect to Mr. Zhang, and help Times Technology make the QQ portal good? You used to be a shareholder of Sohu, and those shareholders really can't do anything to you, but now you are not a shareholder of Sohu." You're just a wage earner, no different from us at all, and those shareholders don't knead you how they want to knead you. ”

Hearing Gu Yongqiang say this, Zeng Fuhu thought about it and took out a file bag from the drawer and handed it to Gu Yongqiang: "Look at it yourself." ”

Gu Yongqiang took the file bag, opened it, looked at the documents inside, and asked Zeng Fuhu with a shocked face: "Mr. Zeng, what's going on?"

"As you can see, I'm now the agent of the twenty-two percent shares. Strictly speaking, I can now say that I am the plenipotentiary of the second largest shareholder of the company. As long as the major shareholders don't speak, those small shareholders can't do anything to me at all. Don't worry, I'm going to be fine. They can't help me, you just do your job well, you don't have to worry about me. In addition, don't mention the matter of going to Times Technology in the future. I have my own considerations, and if I want to go, I'll let you know in advance. Zeng Fuhu didn't explain too much to Gu Yongqiang, just said it briefly.

Gu Yongqiang said: "I'm asking who this share is? I remember that the company doesn't have such a shareholder?"

Zeng Fuhu replied: "I can't tell you whose it is, after all, this agreement has been signed." I'll tell you when I can let you know. But not yet, we'll have to wait a little longer. ”

"So, I heard that our company has applied for delisting on the NASDAQ, is it true?" asked Koo next.

Zeng Fuhu nodded: "It's true, you also know the company's stock price." It has fallen miserably, and the market value has shrunk to an unbelievable number. This can be found on the Internet, and there is no need to stay in the US stock market anymore. It is estimated that the NASDAQ will not embarrass us, and after the company is delisted, the company's shareholders will hold a meeting, and then the company's future will be decided. ”

Gu Yongqiang heard Zeng Fuhu's words and nodded: "Then will the mysterious major shareholder come this time?"

Zeng Fuhu did not answer Gu Yongqiang's question, but said: "Who knows, anyway, the major shareholders of the shareholders' meeting will at least send a representative over." There's no need for the two of us to talk nonsense here, let's wait until that day. Maybe on that day, I will be able to decide whether I will continue to stay in Sohu or not. ”

Gu Yongqiang didn't say anything more, but walked out of Zeng Fuhu's office. For Zeng Fuhu, Gu Yongqiang has some admiration. Because Zeng Fuhu is not the kind of natural leader, he purely relies on a little time to deal with Sohu's affairs. If he was to be the leader of research and development in a certain aspect, Gu Yongqiang felt that Zeng Fuhu would do better than now.

This is also the reason why Gu Yongqiang persuaded Zeng Fuhu to leave Sohu, after all, the company's stock price plummeted, and it must be an explanation to investors and shareholders. Whatever the reason, Zeng Fuhu, as the president of the company, must be responsible. And the consequence of responsibility, nine times out of ten, is to step down with a black pot on his back. This is the usual approach used by many companies, and the situation in the company is to come out and apologize to the public to save their reputation.

After Gu Yongqiang left, Zeng Fuhu looked at the web page that was still open on the computer screen, which showed a draft of a certain financial channel. This manuscript is not aimed at Sohu, but at him. All kinds of slander and dirty water are completely attributed to him when Sohu has come to this point. The answer is yes.

It's just that Zeng Fuhu didn't have any idea after he was angry, and he also knew that this must be the gunman found by some people with ulterior motives. After all, he knows better than those outside why Sohu is like this, perhaps except for a limited number of people such as Zhang Siyuan, only he knows why Sohu has become the way it is.

But Zeng Fuhu was not nervous at all, the market value was the market value, and the Sohu stock price fell again, which did not have any impact on the company. After all, the company can be self-sufficient, and Zhang Siyuan's investment is in it. It's not like some reports say that Sohu's capital chain has been broken, wages can't be paid, and the company's shareholders have to withdraw their shares.

After turning off the computer, Zeng Fuhu walked out of the office. found that the hearts of the whole company were a little impetuous, and Zeng Fuhu also heard some confidants say it. They all received calls from Sina and NetEase, poaching them to change jobs. At Sohu, a time when the future is uncertain, many people are indeed a little shaken.

After all, compared with Sohu, which has been plagued with bad luck recently, the situation of Sina and NetEase is much better. Not only is there no negative news, but there are also no unfavorable rumors. Those who work outside want to have a stable job, and no one wants to be in a company to be afraid that the company will go bankrupt and not even be paid.

It's just that Zeng Fuhu feels that this is the real time to test people, only people who believe in the company and are willing to fight for the company are the people the company needs. This point is different from what Zhang Siyuan thinks, Zhang Siyuan only needs talents to do things, but Zeng Fuhu wants people who do things for the company.

What a person wants is to be able to do things, and what a person wants is to do things for the sake of the company. There is an essential difference, so Zeng Fuhu didn't explain it to those employees at all. The company's finances were clear about the company's situation, and they clarified that if those people didn't want to believe the company, Zeng Fuhu would do whatever they wanted. Willing to believe that the company stays and fights for the company, Zeng Fuhu feels that he will definitely be reused in the future.

After Zeng Fuhu walked around the company, he didn't say a word to anyone, nor did he pause for more than a minute, and went back to his office directly.

Zeng Fuhu, who was sitting in his chair, leaned back in his chair, looking at the ceiling of the office, thinking about Zhang Siyuan's plan. The plan is neither a good nor a bad thing for Sohu, but according to Zeng Fuhu's understanding, in the end, the benefits must outweigh the disadvantages, otherwise he would not cooperate with Zhang Siyuan to complete the plan.

In fact, for Zeng Fuhu, Sohu is very important. Otherwise, he would not be willing to give up good research and development to become the president of Sohu, which is inconsistent with his original intention. It's just that Zhang Siyuan's bread painting is so good that Zeng Fuhu has to give up the projects in his hand to concentrate on managing Sohu.

After all, R&D can be done by many people as long as the concept is there, but company management needs a dedicated person to do it. If a person who does not have a sense of belonging to the company manages the company, the company will definitely end up with all kinds of problems.
