Because of Li Jiaming's suggestion and the breakthrough progress of the GCA Research Institute, Larry resigned as CEO before the company went public, and hired Eric Schmidt, the former CEO of Nowell Company, as CEO, and became vice chairman of the board of directors and president of products.

Such a personnel change, even if Google is about to go public, will not attract the attention of the media, but it will attract Yang Zhiyuan's great enemy.

Who's Larry?

Relying on some tricks, a garage company with 21 employees has become No.2 in the search field, and it is about to be listed on the NASDAQ. The decision to suddenly resign as CEO on the eve of the company's IPO and hire Eric, a well-known professional manager, to take charge of the company is certainly the right one, but what does it mean behind it?

"Jiaming, I remember we had an agreement, right?"

That's right, when Yang Zhiyuan decided to return to Yahoo three years ago, the two had a cooperation agreement, but this time and that time. At that time, Yang Zhiyuan became the god of Yahoo because of a series of correct suggestions, which made Li Jiaming see the bright prospect of in-depth cooperation between the two sides.

However, the interests of the two are too closely combined, especially when the two participate in each other's shares and work part-time in their respective companies, so Li Jiaming had to ask him to come to his home to talk. Yahoo is no longer worried, from the moment it removes from search to portal, the giant company has embarked on the road of decline, but Yang Zhiyuan, a friend, cannot give up. Friendship is one thing, but more importantly, chips, the future technology company that everyone is working on is not slow, relying on the efforts of a large number of Taiwanese engineers day and night, and finally catching up in technology.

Mr. Lee met up with friends in Welterson and drove to his estate. The two argued all the way, and as soon as they entered the door, he made a clown in front of his friends.

returned to Hu Xuan in Palo Alto first, and returned all the gifts given to her by Li Jiaming, from tens of thousands of dollars of bags, jewelry to a few dollars of trinkets, all piled up in the living room. Aunt Diego, who didn't dare to get involved in the master's family affairs, handed back the key left by Hu Xuan to Li Jiaming, and explained why she didn't clean it up.

Although he can afford to put it down, he can see it more openly, looking at the pile of things in the living room, Li Jiaming still has mixed tastes. After four years of friendship, there is no love and friendship, and the two have become strangers in this way, and it is impossible to even be friends.

I don't know the reason, but the result is clear at a glance, Yang Zhiyuan, who followed his old friend to talk about things, was stunned for a while, and persuaded in Chinese: "Jiaming, explain it well, Ah Xuan is actually very good." ”

This is Yang Zhiyuan, when he was in Jingcheng, he persuaded himself to give up, don't make trouble for the company, and when he saw that the two broke up, he would sympathize with others.

Indecision!

Being a friend is a great candidate, but being a teammate can be a headache.

Li Jiaming smiled, picked out the expensive jewelry in the gift, and gave the rest to the four maids, which attracted the dissuasion of old friends.

"When the interruption continues, it is chaotic. ”

"Jiaming!"

Li Jiaming waved his hand, and the excited diego hurriedly took away the large number of things, and when these servants who had reaped the unexpected joy left, they also said with a straight face: "Brother Zhiyuan, do you know what your biggest problem is?"

How did it get to his head? Yang Zhiyuan couldn't help but be stunned.

"Indecisive! Those who achieve great things must be uninformal, and they must be able to afford to put it down. ”

Yang Zhiyuan, who was arguing all the way, just wanted to refute, but was interrupted by Li Jiaming waving his hand: "Brother Zhiyuan, this is my family's words, if you think it makes sense, just listen to it, and if it doesn't make sense, forget it." We are all adults and we all have our own opinions and opinions. ”

Unreasonable!

"According to you, in order to succeed, you can do whatever it takes?"

Play with the question!

Li Jiaming couldn't deny it, but mocked: "Go and see "Fang Shiyu", a fictional character is better than you, no wonder you can't get a doctorate." ”

"Don't change the subject!"

Everything that should be said has been said, everything that should be explained has been explained, what else is there to say?

Li Jiaming, who had been busy for a few days, collapsed on the brown calfskin sofa, too lazy to pay attention to this chattering guy, and took a book to cover his face. If it weren't for this guy's good personal morality, he didn't have many friends in a foreign country, and Li Jiaming, who had been annoyed by him for a few hours, wouldn't even let him in.

He pretended to be dead, and Yang Zhiyuan, who was unrelenting, had no choice but to sit there sulking.

The two have agreed that after the successful development of the iPhone, they will open the source code to Yahoo before the production is set to facilitate their layout of wireless networks, but Li Jiaming has made up his mind to break his promise, what can he do?

Li Jiaming, who pretended to be dead, was also not happy, because of the original promise, he promised to fulfill his promise, how could he still ask him not to give it to Google? That's right, the cooperation conditions promised at the beginning were exclusive, but at this time and that time. said that he broke his promise, and he didn't use the program to break his promise and veto the iTunes/Store financing case?

Don't laugh at the second boss, everyone has said something but has no promises, so they can't talk about promises! Anyway, he is a little more upright, he didn't bring Kyle out, and he also made a veto.

The two were in a stalemate until dark, and Yang Zhiyuan finally compromised, because Kyle led Robert here, compared to iTunes/Store listing, the matter of the source code of the iPhone operating system is not imminent.

A year ago, Robert and his family wanted to use iTunes/Store to make a big profit in the financial market, but unfortunately they failed on Capitol Hill. Although the other party did not fulfill its promise, the basis for the cooperation between the two parties is still there, because behind the other party are the directors of major record companies. Hehe, the United States is indeed a society governed by the rule of law, but under the cloak of legal procedures, it is also a stream of sewage.

Of course, the other party's chips are not so big, and the initiative is back in Li Jiaming's hands.

After eating, a few people entered Li Jiaming's very oriental study, and Kyle, who finally came in, also turned on the anti-eavesdropping equipment hidden in the bookcase, which made Yang Zhiyuan, who was used to arguing on the board of directors, nervous. He knows Robert, and he also fought with Li Jiaming in the Goldman Sachs acquisition case, and there is actually anti-eavesdropping equipment in the study, so you can imagine what to talk about today.

After thinking about it, the framework of cooperation has actually been negotiated, and Robert came to Li Jiaming, just for the final confirmation. Involving the transfer of hundreds of millions of dollars, he, the person who handles it, must see Li Jiaming nodding with his own eyes. In Europe and the United States, this contract includes oral contracts, especially in high society, where the oral contract between the two parties is often more reliable than the formal contract between companies.

"Ming, if you have no opinion, we hope that your board of directors will approve the plan as soon as possible, is there a problem?"

$180 million is expensive, but it's worth it to get record companies to make things difficult for music sites. Li Jiaming nodded lightly in agreement, and also made a personal request, those guys are not good people but have great energy, and they all have resources in their hands.

"Robert, we're going to launch a video program, and we want to bring in some American film and television dramas. Of course, at present, our country does not strictly protect intellectual property rights, we hope that the copyright fee can be as preferential as possible, can you help us get in touch?"

This is very difficult to do, and sooner or later China will strengthen its protection in this regard, but when will this time be waited? But since the other party has opened his mouth, he will also contact him out of friendship.

"Ming, I can help with the contact, but I can't guarantee the result, can you understand?"

"Of course, I can make a promise to my friends, and if Lifang's video program is launched, I will consider our friendship. ”

Exclusivity?Yes, it should be the exclusivity of asking for cooperation, Robert nodded knowingly, and then asked a question that Li Jiaming didn't ask: "Ming, have you considered financializing your wealth?"

Brilliant!

Li Jiaming secretly praised, remained silent, and asked rhetorically, "Robert, do you have any suggestions?"

The other party is a doctor of economics, and Robert didn't explain, and said bluntly: "Ming, although you focus on high-tech industries, there are so many companies you have a stake, and they are all high-quality assets with great potential, so you can form your own consortium." As for some of the legal restrictions in your country, there are some procedures that can be circumvented.

If you need it, we can help. ”

Oh, this is business, Li Jiaming laughed, took the initiative to reach over, and joked: "Robert, if possible, I will ask you to be the CEO of the new bank!"

Robert also laughed, holding Li Jiaming's hand and jokingly: "I bet you will break your word." ”

Of course, he will break his promise, even if Li Jiaming establishes his own bank, it is impossible to hand over such an important position to an outsider, but the two sides can cooperate. This is an era of mutual collaboration, an era of self-development behind closed doors, which has passed a hundred years ago. (To be continued.) )
