Chapter 408: Renewed Cooperation
(This chapter is an anti-theft post, and it will be back to normal in one hour)
"Ming, can you believe it? When we joined Yahoo, we didn't treat it as our business, we just waited to leave after fulfilling the agreement. β
Maybe it's true, or maybe it's just an excuse, but it doesn't matter, the important thing is that he explained it, and that's important. Therefore, Li Jiaming handed over the ladder at the right time and said strangely: "Revenge? β
"Sort of, they weren't too despicable in the first place."
This sentiment was wrong, and Li Jiaming corrected: "No, that's business competition."
"I admit it, but people are not machines!"
Li Jiaming nodded, reached out and took the cigarette in Larry's hand, snuffed it out in the ashtray, and admonished: "This thing is not good."
Larry let out a sigh, a little deliberate, but it also made the atmosphere in the study much lighter.
"Ming, smoking is actually lonely."
It seems that what he said is somewhat true, the company he worked so hard to build was maliciously forcibly acquired, and no one would be willing, but the situation is stronger than people, and it is just a last resort.
"Ok, let's talk to Kyle. I still say the same as before, this is an era of collaboration, and cooperation is the trend. β
βOkβ.
Larry really relaxed this time, drank the coffee in front of him, poured another cup from the pot, and found a lighter topic: "Ming, if I don't come, will you tear up the cooperation agreement with Yahoo?" β
No, even though GCA has obtained a lot of patents and is leading the industry, it still needs to find an ally in the United States to avoid being dragged down by political factors. Robert is right when he says that the economic base determines the superstructure, but politics can react to the economy.
In fact, Kyle had already rejected Shirley's proposal, but Li Jiaming said in a very frank tone: "Yes, in terms of artificial intelligence and cloud computing, Hanhua has already taken the lead, in fact, there is no need for partners." When we agreed to cooperate with Yahoo, in addition to wanting to share the risks, we also had huge interests in Yahoo. β
The idealist looked up at the sky, so he fell and bruised all over his body; The realist looks down at the road and is so lost.
Who said that?
It seems that this is his own original, and many times the original is plagiarized Li Jiaming, who recalled it carefully for a while, was sure that it was his originality.
Spit out the smoke, Li Jiaming, who had a cigarette between his fingers, was as good a teacher as he was more than ten years ago, and educated this bastard who relied on conspiracy to get to the top and said: "Larry, I used to value you and your team, that's because you can look up and look in the direction, and you can calm down and be down-to-earth, but now you have changed."
I admit that in order to be successful, sometimes you need to use some means, but you have to have a bottom line. Have you ever wondered if you will be down-to-earth after you have gained huge benefits through some intrigues? β
βMingβ.
Li Jiaming waved his hand and interrupted his argument: "Larry, if I can stand taller than you, I will see farther than you." I handed over the management of the company to Pony and Kyle, not because I couldn't manage the company, but because I needed to keep an eye on the distance at all times, and I couldn't keep an eye on my feet. β
Larry was silent, Li Jiaming's words were a little scattered, but the meaning was clear. The bottom line is that thing that is stepped on, it will get lower and lower, and the company's operation needs to be upright, and the company cannot be developed and strengthened by conspiracy. When a person puts himself on the dark side, it is impossible to be above board, and the company's operation needs to be above board, otherwise how can we give everyone a fair upward channel, and how can we serve the public?
Seeing that Larry had nothing to say, Li Jiaming was also relieved.
The pig that flies into the sky is still a pig in the end, and the warrior who overcomes all obstacles is still a warrior after all, and the guy in front of him is the real warrior. In the past, he gave up on him and his team, it was because it was impossible to do anything, but now he leads his team Nestle Dove Zhan, and the two sides have a basis for cooperation, but before cooperation, a premise must be clarified, that is, the primary and secondary relationship between the two parties.
Strength will be transformed, today's strong does not mean that he will still be strong in the future, even if he is relatively weak, he will be strong in some areas. In Li Jiaming's previous life, Larry was able to make Google so big, and it only took a dozen years to sweep a generation of overlord Yahoo into the garbage heap of history, which proves that this is a real powerhouse. There is no doubt that there are great benefits to be gained by cooperating with such people, but a seed of reverence must be planted in their hearts, otherwise sooner or later they will be eaten back.
People don't have front and back eyes, and in the past, Li Jiaming taught Larry how to fight, and at that time he wanted to make a windfall on Google's car, and he didn't think so far. Now that Hanwha and Larry have come to this point, there are many things that need to be reconsidered, at least not repeatedly.
Finally, Larry, who was sitting across the desk, moved, reached for the cigarette case and lighter that Li Jiaming threw on the table, coughed and smoked.
