Chapter 158: Wandering Eyes (Part II)
With floor-to-ceiling glass windows, a simple desk, an IBM notebook, several sofas, two high swivel chairs, a glass coffee table, and bright sunlight, Yang Zhiyuan's office is simple and bright, a very typical Internet enterprise office.
But in the simple office, Yang Zhiyuan sat behind the desk, and Li Jiaming sat at the desk, without the intimacy between the two old friends, but a very serious atmosphere, just like the boss and subordinates in traditional enterprises.
Yang Zhiyuan's idea is very simple, this guy has a frightening vision for the long term, and everything has a purpose, even if he can't see his purpose at the time, he will definitely have his intention. Since this is the case, then respond to all changes with the same, as long as he has a request for himself, then take the opportunity to put forward conditions, and to drive high.
However, Li Jiaming does not eat this set.
When he forced AHOO to invest in Google, he guarded against the comparison of % to 30% of voting power, and he could unite with Larry at any time to forcibly clean up AHOO's lack of influence in Google. It's just that he doesn't want to offend the directors of AHOO, who are all representatives of Wall Street, and may be useful to them in the future. Some people compare the United States to a company, with giants such as Microsoft, Boeing, and IBM as its major shareholders, but in fact, this is to put it mildly. In fact, Wall Street is the chairman of this American company, the White House and Capitol Hill are just puppets in their hands, and the essence of Wall Street is capital!
It's just that the capital is in the hands of those banks, investment banks, and foundations, and Li Jiaming can give up some of his interests, but it is definitely not paid to AHOO, a big ship that may be sunk, but directly used to make friends with those financial predators who control the capital. Therefore, he has always maintained a friendship with Robert, and also sent Zhang Quanbao to contact him one-way, because behind Robert is the giant beast of Goldman Sachs, and there are some monsters hidden under the surface of the water that he doesn't know.
Finally, Yang Zhiyuan, whose patience was not as good as Li Jiaming, still took the initiative to break the silence.
"Li Jiaming, you really don't think about it?"
There is no need to beat the drum again, but there are some things that have to be said thoroughly, Li Jiaming said mercilessly: "No, since you can't control the board of directors, it is impossible for me to cooperate deeply with AHOO." β
"Why do you think I can't control the board?"
Needless to say? Responsibility, this guy is the CEO, but he can't let ahoo's financial resources be used by FutureTechnolog, it's a big joke.
'Hahaha', Yang Zhiyuan, who has always been very serious, suddenly laughed, turned out from behind his desk, changed a cup of coffee for his old friend, and mocked: "Ahoo was founded by me and David, and as the CEO, as long as it is what I want to do, who can really stop it?" β
"You just blow it, from the HH financing case to the FT, which one have you done?"
"No", Yang Zhiyuan, who also brought a cup of coffee, did not return to the desk, but sat on the desk and laughed at himself: "Amin, there is one thing you are right, I am very indecisive. I'm not as clear as you are about the future, and I'm not as bold as you.
As it turns out, my judgment about smartphones was not completely wrong, and it was indeed too far ahead of the market. If it weren't for the continuous funding of your other ventures, the iPod alone wouldn't have been able to sustain its development. β
Li Jiaming's face became strange, did he underestimate this guy?
"What about FT? Didn't you tell me that you want to press Liankefa and TSMC to fight for their lives, right? β
Yang Zhiyuan smiled and didn't answer, and in turn mocked: "Ah Ming, do you know what your biggest problem is? Don't look at you as very modest, in fact, you are too proud in your bones and look down on people too much! β
"Cut, I look down on cowards!"
This is just a matter of tongue, Yang Zhiyuan is too lazy to fight, half joking and half serious: "Jiaming, I don't know why you value Google so much, but there must be a reason for you." On my terms, ahoo can exit Google's board, and if not, we are ready to make a takeover offer at twice the market price. If it fails, we will compromise with AOL and go all out to encircle Google.
I believe that as long as we join forces, no company in the Internet space will be immune. β
Who are you scaring about? Li Jiaming laughed and said, "Are you threatening me?" β
"No, it's just a reminder", Yang Zhiyuan also smiled, but his voice became heavier.
AOL, while starting to decline, is still the largest internet service provider in North America. If the two of them join forces to encircle and suppress an Internet company that is far from becoming a climate, I am afraid that those investors will be held away before they make a move. Without investors, even if they make additional investments, they will not be able to attract powerful shareholders, and they will not be able to break through the encirclement and interception of the other party, and it will be difficult for Google not to die.
The strength is not as good as others, although HH is the leader of digital music players, and there are listed companies like e, but ahoo is still too weak compared to ahoo, which is at its peak, and can't shelter the weaker Google. Hitting a stone with an egg, the wise do not. Li Jiaming thought about it for a while, and said with a smile: "Since Brother Zhiyuan is so affordable, will he pay one or two tens of billions to buy our shares?" β
"Hehe, let me get it right, right? You're a good person, but you look down on people too much. β
Yang Zhiyuan, who was sitting on the desk, teased, reached out and took the milky white telephone on the table, dialed the phone of the finance department and ordered in hands-free: "I am, immediately prepare 10 billion US dollars in cash and apply for a loan of 10 billion US dollars." β
"Jerr, are you sure it's 10 billion in cash, 10 billion in loans?"
βes!β
ββ.
A phone call can make a CFO bow down? Many suspicious Li Jiaming believe that this is not acting, he didn't call before he came, and he has never shown his mouth before, so the other party can rehearse in advance?
Then there is only one explanation, this guy has always been firmly in control of ahoo, and the failure of the chip company's financing case is the same as the HH financing case, which is a trick played by this guy. If you are not quite sure, then use the program to veto it, so as not to give people a handle!
"Mr. Li Jiaming, I am not as bold as you, but I am not as timid as you imagined. Now can we talk about cooperation? β
Got out of sight? Li Jiaming looked at his old friend carefully, as if he were looking at a stranger.
Suddenly, Li Jiaming remembered an 'old thing', and couldn't help but secretly scold himself for being too big. If he hadn't stirred up the situation himself, this bastard would have exchanged AHOO (Huaguo) + $1 billion in cash for a 40% stake in Alibaba this year; And Ali in that time and space, with an annual revenue of only $50 million.
, who can make a name for yourself, who is easy to match?
However, this is a good thing, not afraid of god-like opponents, but afraid of pig-like opponents. This guy is cunning and cunning, the older he is, the better!
Giving a thumbs up to his old friend, Li Jiaming also took out his mobile phone and dialed Kle's phone on speakerphone.
"o Apply for a $10 billion interest-free loan, and then open the source code of the 'Excellence' system to them once the funds are in their accounts."
"Ming, are you sure?"
"Of course".
ββ.
The same clean and neat, Yang Zhiyuan sat on the desk and quipped: "Doesn't the company implement the CEO responsibility system?" β
"You don't understand this, Kle is the most discerning person in the world. Lao Tzu had an idea, he paid $3 million to buy 5% of the shares, and the annual salary was only $80,000, which was 2/3 less than he was at IBM. β
"Don't blow it, talk about FT, you have to help with sales."
"I haven't done sales before, why are you looking for me?"
It's too slippery, Yang Zhiyuan scolded secretly, and discussed: "I have a preliminary idea, you can help improve it?" β
Got a way?
Li Jiaming could guess his way, but still asked, "Let's hear it." β
