Chapter 19 Warren Buffett's Most Important Investments

Shanda and Ku 6 only began to contact, and the bottom line of the negotiations between the two sides was heard by Song Zhidong, and a glimpse of the whole leopard can be seen, which shows that Song Zhidong has made sufficient preparations for today's meeting and has done a lot of preliminary work for Zelianke Online Video.

Rao is like this, he still can't keep up with Zhao Zejun's train of thought.

This doesn't work, that doesn't work, I don't want it at home, it's not good at abroad, it's too big to afford, it's too small to look down on...... What the hell are you going to do?

Fortunately, in the past few days since coming to Zelianke, people, including Song Zhidong and other executives of Zelianke, have gradually adapted to Zhao Zejun's agile thinking, jumping, and unreasonable way of playing cards.

"Mr. Zhao, which one do you think is more suitable?" Song Zhidong asked.

If you can't keep up with the boss's train of thought, there is a relatively simple and safe way: what the boss says, the subordinates will do. Zhao Zejun said which one to acquire, Song Zhidong went to investigate, and coordinated with colleagues in the business department who were responsible for this business.

Zhao Zejun thought for a while and said, "Potatoes." ”

"Potato ......"

This time, Song Zhidong was really stunned, he didn't expect Zhao Zejun to choose this at all.

In his initial research, he did not hesitate to eliminate the potatoes, and did not think about it at all.

"Mr. Zhao......" Song Zhidong is very familiar with the situation of potatoes, and he doesn't need to brew wording at all, so he said: "I don't think potatoes are suitable." First, Tudou has already submitted an IPO application in the United States, and will be listed smoothly next, so how can it be willing to be acquired at this time? Second, Tudou's CEO Wang Wei has recently had some negative news, and the entire corporate image has been affected. At this time, we bought potatoes, and the various relationships were too complicated to be a good choice. ”

Several other people at the meeting also nodded slightly at the same time, expressing their agreement with Song Zhidong's words.

Although Zhao Zejun, the big boss, has the power to make a decision, and the company's leaders often can't keep up with Lao Zhao's train of thought, and he makes him dizzy and can't figure it out, but in the internal discussion, everyone can express their views without any inhibition, brainstorming, and will not be submissive because of Zhao Zejun's absolute power.

Democratic centralism is evident in Zelianko.

"In fact, if we think about it the other way, we want to acquire a video website, and there are only two problems in front of us. ”

Seeing that everyone was a little puzzled, Zhao Zejun smiled and explained unhurriedly: "First, is whether this company has the value of acquisition. Tudou,If Youku is not listed,It's the number one video website,Even if Youku is listed,In terms of the number of users and influence,Tudou still ranks second。 There is no doubt about that. ”

"However, potatoes are also about to go on the market, how can they be willing to be acquired?" Song Zhidong asked.

Almost all of the people present are entrepreneurs and 'half-way traders', and Zelianke is one of the largest startups in China, so they all know too well what it means to go public.

To put it elegantly, the ringing of the bell is the realization of the ideal of life; to be vulgar, the company's market value immediately soared, from the boss to the shareholding employees, everyone's worth skyrocketed, and they reached the peak of life;

The listing of a company means that it has entered a new stage and stepped onto a new level, and the vast world will be promising in the future.

Who will sell the company at this point?

Not to mention selling the company, since the IPO application has been submitted, it means that Tudou no longer needs financing. Because it is about to have 'financing' for the stock market.

"Everyone, ......" Zhao Zejun raised his hand and pressed it, and the office suddenly fell silent, and his words became the only voice in the office.

"At the end of the day, it's all wishful thinking. Whether you are willing to sell the company or not, you still have to look at the potatoes, and see how Wang Weiwang, who is a potato, always thinks about it. Zhao Zejun made a very European and American movement, leaned back in the chair, stretched out his hand, and said with a smile: "Why don't we ask Mr. Wang Wei." ”

"Of course. "Song Zhidong is the real 'foreign school', his shrugging action is more standard and foreign than Zhao Zejun's old hat, and he said helplessly: "You are the boss, you have the final say, I will contact the potato immediately after that." Still, I can't believe it. ”

"Haha. Zhao Zejun smiled easily and said to Song Zhidong: "Okay William, why don't we make a bet, how about a thousand dollars?"

William is the English name of Song Zhidong, Zelian Keli people who have stayed abroad generally call each other English names, Zhao Zejun, a turtle that rarely leaves southern Jiangsu Province, most of the time calls each other Chinese names, calling him William at this time can only show that Lao Zhao is very relaxed and sure.

"I'm happy to accompany you!" Song Zhidong grinned, "It seems that I can have an extra small income this month." ”

"I hope so. Zhao Zejun also laughed.

……

……

Just when Zelianke set his eyes on Tudou, the founder and CEO of Tudou, Wang Wei, was leaning on the sofa at home a little tiredly, holding a thick book of Buffett's autobiography in his hand, but his attention was not on the book, but looking out of the floor-to-ceiling window.

There is bamboo outside the window, there is rain, the sound of the rain is completely blocked by the sound of the sound of the rain outside the window, the room is silent, there is no sound, the bamboo forest outside the floor-to-ceiling window is swayed by the wind and rain, like a silent movie.

The industry's evaluation of Wang Wei, in addition to the big thing of single-handedly making Tudou a first-class video website, there is also a very special point:

Mr. Wang of Tudou is the most handsome of the Internet entrepreneurs except Mr. Zhao of Zelianke. Some people even believe that Wang Wei has a strong 'literary youth' temperament than Zhao Zejun.

Zhao Zejun occasionally shows a 'stunned and green' side, while Wang Wei no longer exudes a literary temperament all the time, and has a fire-like enthusiasm for all the things and people that attract him. To a certain extent, Wang Wei is more pure, and everything he does is out of passion, unlike orthodox entrepreneurs like Zhao Zejun, who will consider all aspects and make the most favorable choice.

In various high-end gatherings, salons, and forums in the industry, Wang Wei can often be seen, dressed very casually, holding a literary book that has nothing to do with the Internet, and reading quietly on the side.

However, what he was holding in his hand at this time was a copy of "Buffett's Autobiography".

Successful people never make the real secret of their success public, and it stands to reason that this kind of book with a strong composition of chicken soup for the soul can no longer fool the true literary youth at the level of Wang Wei.

In fact, this book is also the first time Wang Wei has read it.

The page that opened, there was this sentence at the beginning.

"The most important investment in my life is not which stocks to buy, but who I choose to marry. If you are wrong when it comes to choosing a partner, you will lose a lot. Moreover, the losses are not just monetary. ”
