With the development of ICQ, in a few years, I am afraid he will not even be worth two or three hundred million. The reason why Xinyi is coming out now is entirely because although MSN was greatly injured by the Tang Dynasty Company, the general trend has not fallen.

If Chen Jiayi doesn't win ICQ as soon as possible, if MSN Salted Fish turns over, it will be troublesome.

This time I came to the United States to coerce ICQ. Then, if the momentum is weakened, don't think about acquiring ICQ. Chen Jiayi doesn't care whether ICQ's suggestion is a temptation or whether he really wants to increase the price. Chen Jiayi will not agree to their requests. Now, everything has to be done according to the meaning of the Tang Dynasty company.

Sure enough, when Liu Zhiming conveyed Chen Jiayi's meaning to "AOL", AOL's senior management held another meeting. One side of this meeting scolded the Tang Dynasty company for being too arrogant, but on the other hand, he secretly checked the current situation. In the end, AOL, which was not very satisfied with the development of ICQ, finally agreed.

, "Tang Dynasty Company Strikes Again, $1 Billion Acquisition of ICQ"

On the same day, after Tang Dynasty signed the cooperation agreement, the front page headlines of major media reported on Tang Dynasty's acquisition of ICQ. The article emphasizes that Tang Dynasty, which has just fought with Microsoft, has now landed in the U.S. market again and acquired ICQ, a subsidiary of AOL, which is also the world's third largest instant messaging company. Affected by this, the original three-legged situation of global instant messaging was finally shattered. Some media experts said that after Tang Dynasty acquired ICQ, his instant messaging business will reach the global market, coupled with the recent loss of vitality PSN, I believe that it will not be long before Tang Dynasty instant messaging will dominate the world.

This moment is the moment of the unification of instant messaging.

"Awesome, it's just amazing." ”

I don't know who invented it, but the word "power" has now spread all over the world.

"The use of only one instant messaging in the world will surely deepen the communication between netizens around the world and facilitate the optimal use of resources." ”

This is the opinion of a netizen.

However, not everyone agrees that there is only one instant messaging in the world. They believe that the Tang Dynasty is certainly powerful, but if there is only one instant messaging in the world, then it is not a monopoly in disguise. Just like Microsoft, he has a monopoly on the entire operating system, making the development of the operating system more and more backward. Now that the Tang Dynasty is about to monopolize the world, will it be like Microsoft?

And there is a tendency for such voices to become more and more intense. Especially for netizens, they have a great prejudice against monopoly. Even if this one monopolizes the Tang Dynasty company.

When they learned that instant messaging was probably going to be monopolized by Tang Dynasty, many non-Tang Dynasty users showed crazy resistance.

This boycott is not to say that they hate Tang Chao. This kind of boycott, and even some of them boycott because they boycott for the sake of boycotting, because they don't like monopolies, so they boycott, it's as simple as that. Many ICQ users have also formed some anti-Tang TT alliances, and they have left messages on the ICQ official website, hoping that ICQ will take back the decision and they will definitely wait for the development of the four ICQs until they grow old.

It's just that no matter how many messages from netizens there are, it's useless. The agreement has been signed and is being submitted to the U.S. government for review, and it is only waiting for the U.S. government to approve it, so ICQ will become a subsidiary of Tang Dynasty Company, which is a sure thing. It is impossible for a company's decision to cancel just because a few netizens suggested it there. Just as a company is about to go out of business, does he see that one or two people are still buying his product, and they just go ahead?

Sometimes, business is so ruthless.

In the face of these more jī ICQ users, the ICQ official website expressed silence. In addition, ICQ has also chosen to ban discussions in some of their news discussion forums. When there were some careful ICQ small measures, they finally knew. It seems that this acquisition has already begun, and they are powerless to return to the sky.

"Well, why do you bother?"

Seeing these crazy fans, Chen Jiayi sighed. He knows that when his favorite products are about to be acquired by others, it is the biggest harm to these fans. It doesn't matter if it's a good company or a bad company that buys his company, they don't want their products to be bought by someone else.

It's just an emotion, albeit with some irrationality. However, reality is a world made up of these combinations of emotions. Chen Jiayi can understand, but he will not give up on the plan to acquire ICQ because of this.

"It's useless, unless, the U.S. government blocks ......," Chen Jiayi said with his eyes closed. It's just that at this moment, Chen Jia's eyes opened, "The U.S. government." ”

"Oh no, why didn't I think of the U.S. government."

In my heart, a bad voice sounded.

Because, Chen Jiayi knows that this acquisition plan involves cross-border transactions.

Therefore, this deal, he will definitely involve the two governments. Naturally, the Chinese government has always been in favor of and strongly supported the overseas mergers and acquisitions of other enterprises by Chinese enterprises.

However, for the U.S. government. In any country's political wells, they have the idea of local protection. As long as the government of any country is unwilling to sell its company to you, then no matter how strong your company is, it is impossible to reach a purchase agreement.

Just as in later generations, with the birth of the economic crisis in 2008, countless companies in Europe and the United States gathered and closed. At this time, the capital of China is at this stage. Started to buy the bottom overseas. will be a lot of international, originally very well-known companies. All acquisitions went into the subsidiary. Like some of the automotive industry, some real estate companies and so on.

However, the bottom-buying action of Chinese enterprises is not smooth sailing.

There are some companies that are not very good, perhaps, they have been acquired by Chinese enterprises. However, like some companies with more technology, even if Chinese enterprises reach a cooperation agreement with them, they will eventually be hindered by other countries. For example, like the acquisition of GM Hummer by a Chinese automobile company, it has also been blocked by the US government.

This time, Chen Jiayi just thought of it, but he was shocked.

Historically, there has been no precedent for the U.S. government to block acquisitions by Internet companies. But, now, it's different. On the one hand, in later generations, he was a small Internet company in China. The biggest one is Tencent. But in the eyes of the U.S. government, it's nothing.

The United States has more powerful companies than Tencent, like Facebook, Google, and so on, which are much more powerful than Tencent.

Today, the Tang Dynasty Company is dominant. Judging from the US government's mutual shortcomings, plus so many netizens who oppose Tang Dynasty companies now. Chen Jiayi really feels that this time, the U.S. government has a great chance that it will stop this acquisition. The more he thought about it, the more Chen Jiayi felt that it was possible. Although the US government has not yet said anything, moreover, the results have not come out.

But Chen Jia has always liked to figure out the worst side. Then we will develop a practical solution.

From another point of view, if Chen Jiayi is the U.S. government. Then, Chen Jiayi will definitely stop this acquisition. There is no other reason if not prevented. With MSN's current decline, ICQ was acquired by Tang Dynasty. It is believed that it will not be long before the United States loses its only instant communication.

This is unacceptable to a superpower like the United States.

, "Mistakes, mistakes......"

Knowing earlier, Chen Jiayi would have made arrangements as soon as possible.

It's just that when there is an end of people, like the interference of the US government, even Chen Jiayi did not think of it. If you thought about it, Chen Jiayi would not have made such an acquisition, but would have come to acquire it through the stock market. After all, the acquisition of shares in the secondary market is something that cannot be prohibited in any country. Unless, you restrict the entry of international capital. But for an open America, this is even more unlikely.

What to do, what to do?

For a while, Chen Jiayi had no way to face the government that suddenly came to mind.

Even after walking for half an hour, Chen Jiayi still couldn't wake up. It wasn't until Chen Jiayi's secretary Liu Zhiming reminded Chen Jiayi that he was about to get off work that Chen Jiayi came to his senses. Then, he looked at Liu Zhiming, but said, "Xiao Liu, you say, if the U.S. government blocks our acquisition this time, then, what should we do?" ”

"This ......"

Faced with this matter beyond the scope of Liu Zhiming's cognition, Liu Zhiming didn't know how to answer it for a while. After all, there is little justification for government involvement in business practices. Moreover, the other party, he still belongs to the US government. Take the Chinese government as an example, if the Chinese government wants to prevent any European and American companies from acquiring, it can also be ordered, and no one can move.

Just like why there are so many national enterprises in China, he actually has no foreign capital. This is placed in the United States, that is impossible. However, such a thing happened to him in China. The domestic want to control the entry of international capital, that is, a policy, a matter of order. Obviously, Liu Zhiming knows this. However, knowing is knowing, how to solve it, not to mention Liu Zhiming, even if it is the country, he cannot solve it. However, although Liu Zuming could not give an answer, he said something that seemed more reasonable, "Mr. Chen, whether the US government intervenes or not, we don't know yet, whether we are thinking too far." ”

This is Liu Zhiming's view.

"Yes." ”

Now that Acquisition Plan 1 has begun, it is useless to think about it again. Besides, before they start acting, you think about what they will do to you. Moreover, what you come up with is still an action that you can't parry. Just ask, if you think about this, wouldn't it hurt to be idle.

Thinking of this, Chen Jiayi couldn't help laughing. If Liu Zhiming is his boss, it is estimated that this guy will have to criticize Chen Jia a few words. You brain, you have nothing to think about. It's not good now, at least, from now on, it's normal, and there is no strange phenomenon happening.

What's more, AOL already has plans to sell ICQ urgently. This reason, on the one hand, is not optimistic about the development of ICQ in the future, and on the other hand, it is also Chen Jiayi's good bid, which makes them excited. At least, the current ICQ, he sells a heart for a dollar, which is still very good. If you really wait for a year or two, although it is impossible to talk to Chen Jiayi, it is only worth 1

billion dollars. However, it is impossible to say that it is worth a few dollars.

"Okay, it's me thinking too much, let's get off work." After thinking about it, Chen Jiayi left the office.

It's just that in his heart, that trace of bad feeling still exists. Since then, Chen Jiayi has been watching the acquisition of ICQ for a few days. Until finally, when a message from the U.S. Department of Commerce appeared, Chen Jiayi almost broke out.

"Tang Dynasty's plan to acquire ICQ has not passed the review of the U.S. Department of Commerce."

Reason, no reason.

Until, when the personnel of the Tang Dynasty Company contacted ICQ again, ICQ conveyed the meaning of the U.S. Department of Commerce. In principle, the U.S. Department of Commerce has no problem with the acquisition, but it requires ICQ to be self-sufficient and not subject to the management of Tang Dynasty. Second, ICQ retains its own brand. Third......

Third, there is no need to read it, because of the first two, it is impossible for Tang Dynasty Company to agree.

Even if these conditions are attached, such as the acquisition fund drops to $700 million, Chen Jiayi will not agree. You must know that Tang Dynasty Company is not interested in money, and they are not short of money. The acquisition of ICQ was for the Tang Dynasty to dominate the world. If you don't take over ICQ and don't change the name of ICQ, Chen Jiayi will also buy a fart.

, "Okay, stop the acquisition plan 1...... You'll see. ”

Chen Jiayi snorted coldly, although he felt powerless for the US government's blockade, he was sincerely unhappy.

Affected by the obstruction of the U.S. Department of Commerce, Tang Dynasty's overseas acquisition case went bankrupt for the first time.

The outside media also reacted enthusiastically to this matter. Many media believe that the strength of the Tang Dynasty Company has made the US government feel some threats. This time, they shot directly at the barricade. Although this approach can protect local American companies well, according to this incident, I am afraid that the whole world will follow suit. In the long run, this is also bad for U.S. companies.

In particular, after the U.S. Department of Commerce rejected the review, the Chinese government has expressed strong opposition. Although, most of the time everyone is immune to the strong opposition to the Chinese government. But this time, it seems, we see a different China. Because, in the last sentence of the spokesman of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Chinese government, he said that we do not rule out other countries, and they will also follow the example of the US government.

This other country, although it did not say it explicitly, has already told the US government that China will do the same.

Within a few days, the world saw the outbreak of the Chinese government.

For several days in a row, the Chinese government significantly reduced its holdings of U.S. bonds.

Perhaps, everyone does not know much about reducing the holdings of US bonds.

Here, a brief explanation.

We know that the United States has always been a country that consumes ahead of time, and they often have no money themselves, even if they take out loans, they also have to consume. As a result, these loans have become US bonds.

When China sells a large number of U.S. bonds, it will inevitably flatten the dollar. And the dollar is flat, then the cost of purchase will also rise. The rising cost of purchase is not good for the United States, a country that is ahead of its time. When the time comes, if you consume ahead of time, then no one will pay for you, and see how you are ahead.

Of course, this is just a relatively simple point. In fact, reducing the holdings of US Treasury bonds, he will also affect the appreciation of the yuan, and there are some other exports, so I will not talk about it here.

Now, because the U.S. Department of Commerce blocked Tang Dynasty's acquisition of ICQ, the Chinese government significantly reduced its holdings of U.S. bonds that month. Although, the Chinese government will not be completely reduced. However, it has to be said that this is a warning issued by the Chinese government to the US government.

Sometimes, many people may see that the Chinese government only knows how to protest and does not know what else to do. In fact, the Chinese government has really done a lot of work. It's just that how many people know about these jobs, or how many people understand them?

Perhaps, after the news of the Chinese government's substantial reduction of its holdings of U.S. bonds, many people are still obsessed with it. However, when this news reached Chen Jiayi's ears, he was a little excited. It seems that this time, the domestic government is a bull. Judging from the data of the day's reduction, it actually reached $10 billion one day. This unprecedented reduction in holdings will not occur in the future in 2011.

"Good, good, good."

This is a very good phenomenon.

Chen Jiayi knows that this has directly shown that the domestic government has slowly risen up and thinks more about itself. Instead of always thinking about the big picture, he has always maintained a middle-of-the-road approach. In the past, many domestic diplomatic strategies, the golden mean, were of no use at all. Only strong strength can destroy the integrity of others. Just like the "Yuan Dynasty", when his iron horses, guns, and cannons open the door to Europe, this can reflect the level of a country.

In the past, many times the "China" countries did not have this strength, so they had to be modest. Nowadays, with the development of China's economy, especially the development of Internet technology, the benefits of scientific and technological information to China are simply too great. For this reason, the government of the Chinese government decided to force the Tang Dynasty company this time.

Even if the U.S. government can't retract its prejudices, they must see that the current "China" country is not the "China" country before Denmark.

"Fantastic"

If he continues to reduce his holdings like this, in a month, he may really reduce his holdings by 100 billion US dollars. This should be regarded as a big blow to the United States. Seeing this, Chen Jiayi was refreshed. Now he only feels more happy than ever. Even the blocking of ICQ's acquisition was thrown out of his mind. If the domestic government can vigorously cooperate, then why not hate China's great cause?

Since the government is so powerful, then, let's be ruthless.

"Xiao Liu, invite the major domestic Internet companies over, I want to have a good talk with them." ”

Hmph, if you block me, I will also block you. @。
