Success is also Xiao He, and defeat is also Xiao He.

Because of Frank's localization, Yahoo's development has been smooth, but due to the influence of politics and false advertising, he had to resign as CEO of the branch, and Yahoo's stock price fell sharply, quickly falling to a market value of 130 billion and still falling.

For no other reason, the market of Huaguo is too large, and Yahoo's contribution and vision to the parent company are far greater than those of Yahoo and other branches. This seems to be an incident caused by false advertising, but those sophisticated Wall Street investment managers concluded that due to the friction between the two countries, the Chinese government wants to control the development of American-funded Internet companies in China in order to achieve the goal of controlling public opinion.

If the relations between the two countries do not improve in the future, Yahoo will not be able to escape bad luck? However, can we see an opportunity for improvement? Can't we see that China's economic aggregate is so large that it has already posed a real challenge to the United States, and even if everyone knows that the Chinese are not very aggressive, who knows in the future? At least populism has already spread in China, and there are huge contradictions in the economy and society, what if the rulers use populism to divert contradictions?

The unlucky ones are not only Yahoo, but also another famous tech giant - Apple.

If Apple's god has only two years to live, who will be able to lead it forward? A piece of news that was not confirmed by Apple immediately had a ripple effect in the stock market, triggering a panic sell-off.

Although this was temporary, Apple's stock price immediately rebounded with the public appearance of the spirited Steve Jobs in the company, but it was enough for Zhang Quanbao, who has already learned all the truth.

Short, backhand long, and then choose the opportunity to short, everything is calculated intentionally.

The news has been leaked, but it can no longer be concealed, otherwise it will lead to more serious consequences. Under the pressure of the situation, after thinking twice, Jobs, who was still in good spirits, announced his illness.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am sorry to tell you that I have just been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, but I am confident that I will win. ”

Having the courage to talk about life and death, I have to say that this man is a true warrior, but it does not change his importance to the company. With just one statement, Apple's stock price fell sharply again, and its market value fell to $120 billion, a drop of nearly 20%, and Yahoo, which was affected by the branch, became a difficult brother.

Short, backhand long, short, and then quietly eat.

After some operation, Zhang Quanbao and they got 17.85% of Yahoo's shares without any difficulty, and they can launch a takeover bid. However, Zhang Quanbao, who had the initiative in hand, ignored Yahoo's request and rushed to Li Jiaming's estate overnight.

"Jiaming, are you sure you want to help Yahoo?"

When the initiative was not in his hands, Li Jiaming wanted Yang Zhiyuan to join Apple, but he hesitated again when the initiative was in his hands.

There are no fathers and sons in the casino, and there are no friends in the business world. If Jobs braids his hair in two years, with the current strength of Apple, it will be difficult to have greater development, but Yang Zhiyuan will become the owner There are great variables. After thinking for a long time, Li Jiaming didn't dare to make a decision easily, so he picked up the phone and called Kyle, who was sleeping soundly, over to discuss.

Kyle, who was awakened, knew that something big had happened as soon as he saw the time, and hurriedly drove to Li Jiaming, and couldn't help but be stunned after hearing it. After pouring a cup of coffee, he couldn't judge after thinking about it.

Apple's difficulty lies not only in its smartphones, but also in its wide range of products, which overlap with Hanwha. Smartphones and digital music players are the main business of GCA, but in addition to these, there are also wireless offices, network TVs, and so on.

If Yahoo and Apple join forces, they may not be able to surpass Hanhua's advantageous projects, but what about other fields? Moreover, Yang Zhi is far from being Jobs, that guy does not have that kind of arrogance, on the contrary, he is very good at failure, to a large extent, Yahoo imitates its innovation, and uses its comprehensive strength to surpass and suppress.

But Yahoo's people are in New York, and they must give a reply as soon as possible, otherwise the other party will go it alone.

"Boss, I'm judging that Jerry won't follow the protocol. Although he has great interests in Hanhua, he will not be relentless when he has the opportunity to challenge us. ”

Li Jiaming nodded silently, and he also judged the same. When wealth reaches a certain level, it is not so important in itself, what really matters is what it represents. For example, when it comes to wealth, Li Jiaming is the richest man in the world, and the president of the United States only earns hundreds of thousands of dollars a year, but his influence and important performance surpass that of the president of the United States?

In the same way, Yang Zhiyuan, who is worth tens of billions, will care about more or less wealth?

No, he cares more about the influence and control of Yahoo and Apple than his interests in Hanhua. If he can control the two tech giants at the same time, he can give up the interests of Hanhua, and what Li Jiaming can do in Hanhua is to expel him from the board of directors, and in addition to this, can he deprive him of his shares?

Of course, there is another way, that is, to increase the stock of Yahoo, increase the influence and control of Yahoo, and achieve a balance on Yang Zhiyuan. But even if it is in full swing, Li Jiaming is not sure that he can challenge Yang Zhiyuan on the board of Yahoo. After that guy returned to the helm of Yahoo, he not only escaped the Internet bubble of 01-02, but also brought Yahoo from 100 billion to more than 150 billion. If it weren't for the short-term impact of the branch, Yahoo wouldn't have fallen to a market capitalization of 120 billion at all.

Difficult!

Not to mention Zhang Quanbao, who obeyed Li Jiaming's orders, even his partner Kyle did not dare to make suggestions easily, so he could only analyze the pros and cons and make his own choice. If you make the wrong choice, you may well develop a strong opponent in the future, and you may also lose a strong ally.

"Let me think again".

Li Jiaming's way of thinking is very unique, and Kyle has seen a lot, taking out a whiteboard and a marker, building a mathematical model on the whiteboard, and analyzing its pros and cons. Even if you push yourself and others, no one knows how you will choose until that specific environment and choice.

In the end, Li Jiaming sighed dejectedly and threw away the marker in his hand.
