Chapter 343: Whale Swallowing (Part II)

With blue sky and white clouds, Beiping is rarely so clean in winter.

"Yes, the environmental pollution is getting worse and worse, and it will become foggy in a few years."

Sun Weigang, CTO of Sogo, handed a cup of tea to Li Jiaming, echoed Zhang Zhaoyang, who was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass window, and joked: "Second child, I will celebrate my fortieth birthday next year, are I going to send a manor or Gulfstream?"

"Courtesy and exchange".

"That's not what I said, I gave you a piece of blue and white porcelain on your thirtieth birthday, which is equivalent to one-ten-thousandth of my entire family. My fortieth birthday, don't you want to give one ten-thousandth of it?"

"You give me all your belongings, and see if I will take my family as a gift in return?"

"Phew, the richer you are, the more you slam the door", Sun Weigang snorted disdainfully, and handed the coffee in his hand to Lao Zhang, who was still pondering.

The coffee cup handed over made Lao Zhang come back to his senses and take the hot coffee, handed over the empty cup in his hand, and asked, "Gangzi, what do you think?"

The second child brought up these things with great benefits, the boss must have concerns when he asked, and between smart people, Sun Weigang thought that he didn't have that brainstorm and didn't want to get involved.

"Boss, you can just discuss it with the second child and the old Gu, how can I understand this?"

This matter is too big, and it is normal that the third child does not want to express his opinion. Taking a sip of bitter black coffee, Lao Zhang turned his head with a bone china cup and muttered: "Jiaming, you have been away from the country for a long time, and some situations may not be clear. January's financial statements came out, and the profit for the last three months maintained a growth rate of nearly 17%. ”

Li Jiaming, who was also standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass window, took a sip of tea with a delicate teacup, looked at the high-rise buildings shining under the blue sky, and said without looking back:

"How much?"

"Sixty percent".

Sixty percent of the certainty is not low, and it came out of the mouth of the treacherous and foxy old Zhang, Li Jiaming smiled and raised the teacup and said, "When I didn't say it."

"Leave me behind".

Be careful, Li Jiaming nodded and promised to take a handle if the situation changed.

"Okay, I'll go back to my hometown for the New Year in the afternoon, and you can talk to Frank about the rest. ”

"Eat together at noon?"

"I didn't have time, I agreed to go to Lord Xiao's to eat duck", Li Jiaming put the remaining half cup of tea on the coffee table to say goodbye.

After sending Li Jiaming away, Lao Zhang, whose face became solemn, sat back on the sofa and called Lao Gu, who was far away in the deep city. The two countries began to engage in friction, and the situation was in Sogo's favor, and Yahoo's conditions were not low, but he would rather chase the remnants of the remnants than seek stability for the sake of stability.

Lao Zhang is as cunning as a fox, and Lao Gu is not shallow in the city, reminding: "Fox, the second child should have a behind-the-scenes deal with Yahoo." ”

"I know, he just showed a little bit of a mouthful, but it didn't affect our side. ”

Since Sogo is not ready to go public, Lao Gu, who has always been under great financial pressure, wants to go public in advance, and discusses: "Fox, now that the second child is famous, I want him to be the chairman and go public in advance." ”

The second brother even said that he would let go of it, and letting him serve as chairman was just a false name, but it was better to be on guard against it, relying on other people's funds is not as good as having funds in your own hands. Lao Zhang glanced at Sun Weigang, who didn't care, and after a little thought, he agreed: "You go and discuss with him yourself, I have no problem with Gangzi."

"Okay", Lao Gu hung up the phone and immediately called Li Jiaming.

After receiving a call from Lao Gu, Li Jiaming didn't mind that he wanted to go public in advance. Lao Gu went public, Lao Zhang's financial pressure was gone, he had the upper hand, and with abundant funds, he was likely to survive Yahoo for another two years, so why pay for the 10% stake and $500 million in cash?

After having a meal with Lord Xiao and a few teachers, Li Jiaming returned to his hometown for the New Year, but Lao Zhang, who knew that Yahoo had the intention of divesting, began to play tricks. On the one hand, he sent people to negotiate with Frank, and on the other hand, he dug up some inappropriate reports from Yahoo's past, and secretly increased his lobbying efforts for the government.

Those in power will always consider the problem in a serious way, just in case something is caught off guard, and in the face of the White House's aggressiveness, they will naturally have some tendencies on certain issues. In addition, Yahoo's profit model is the same as Sogo's, and it is impossible not to involve some false advertising, especially in the pharmaceutical field.

Just as the United States Seventh Fleet swaggered through the Taiwan Strait during the Spring Festival, and when the head of the central government was very unhappy, Lao Zhang's contacts for many years played a role: the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued a notice ordering Yahoo to immediately rectify and put its false advertising in the pharmaceutical field on the line. What's even more troublesome is that some people who came from nowhere pulled up banners in front of Yahoo (Huaguo), condemning it for promoting black-hearted hospitals and shoddy and counterfeit drugs in vain. Such a scene was immediately hyped by the media, and with the help of the spread of the Internet, it became a stir as soon as it was reported.

"It's over", Li Jiaming, who is hiding in Huangniping for the New Year, knows that Frank is finished when he sees the criticism of netizens on the Internet. Such a bad thing is put on the mainland, and it is nothing more than the CEO coming out to make a verbal apology, temporarily rectifying the matter as required, and what to do after the limelight is over. But Sohu still has branches in North America, and they report the news, and in such a country with a perfect integrity system, Yahoo has to be forced to cry.

Lao Zhang's bastard is dark enough, Li Jiaming secretly praised what to do. But just when Li Jiaming felt that the big event was timed, Frank, who was unwilling to be restrained, finally jumped out and publicly accused the Chinese government of treating it differently.

"Sogo's false advertising practices in the pharmaceutical field are even more serious, why don't they need to rectify them?"

Just two days after the voice fell, the notice from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology was sent to Internet companies such as Sogo, Sohu, and Tengxin.com, also asking them to rectify the false advertising.

How smart is Lao Zhang?

stood up and apologized in public, and Sogo's COO announced his resignation, giving the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology enough face. As for Sohu, NetEase, Tengxin, etc., they pretended not to hear it and pretended to deal with it.

"This play is beautiful."

By the time Li Jiaming finished the New Year and returned to the United States to prepare for the start of school, this farcical battle continued. Moreover, Li Jiaming also made a strong accusation against Yang Zhiyuan's call: "Zhiyuan, you think too highly of me, can I be the master of the fox?"

"You can't be the master, and you still talk nonsense with me?"

"Yang Zhiyuan, I just suggested it to a friend, and you are no longer the chairman and CEO of Yahoo. Can you take the between the two of us idlers seriously?"

The angry Yang Zhiyuan hung up the phone with a 'snap', and Li Jiaming was happy with the beeping phone. I can't blame myself for this, I only blame Lao Zhang for being too dark, and I can make any moves.

After the fun, Li Jiaming called back the phone again and discussed the matter with Yang Zhiyuan, who was still angry. The funds on his side are in place, Yahoo can't drop the chain, and he won't order Zhang Quanbao to do it before he sees the real money.

The branch is over, but Apple's business cannot afford to fail, otherwise the stock price will fall to a mess. Yang Zhiyuan, who calmed down, ordered the titular CEO Tim to mobilize funds after answering the phone.

"Good, you don't have to worry about the stock price going down, you can contact the shareholders right away. As soon as the news from the Mel clinic is confirmed, let them do it immediately!"

Just received the good news, Tim, who was excited, was not worried about the stock price at all, but whispered: "Jerry, the news from the Mel Clinic has just been confirmed, pancreatic cancer is advanced, up to two years".

“My,god”。

The sudden good news made Yang Zhiyuan ecstatic, and immediately hung up the phone and called Li Jiaming.

"Jiaming, the big thing has been decided!"
