The next day, Lu Shaohua's special plane landed at the airport in Sunnyvale, California, USA, and just got off the plane, the car representing Yahoo was already waiting at the airport, and the people who came to greet Lu Shaohua were not simple, Yang Zhiyuan and David? Philo.

In the United States, some people may suggest that Yang Zhiyuan will know that he is the founder of Yahoo, but don't forget, Yahoo has two founders, and the founder's name is David? Fei Luo is also Yang Zhiyuan's classmate.

The two founders of Yahoo came to the airport to greet Lu Shaohua, and you can imagine how seriously they took Lu Shaohua's visit. Of course, Lu Shaohua deserves their attention regardless of his identity or anything, after all, Yahoo cannot be compared with Phoenix Group.

Moreover, Lu Shaohua came to talk about the acquisition of Yahoo with sincerity, and when a billionaire came to visit, they Yahoo could not help but express it. What's more, Lu Shaohua has promised that if the acquisition is completed, Yang Zhiyuan will still stay in the CEO position of Yahoo, and David? Philo is the company's deputy chief executive officer.

It can be said that even Yahoo was acquired by Phoenix Group, Yang Zhiyuan and David? The two will remain unchanged in their position at Yahoo, remaining the company's top decision-makers and directors on the board.

It is not useless for Lu Shaohua to study on his own and invite someone to teach English, it played its role at this time, Lu Shaohua can use English with Yang Zhiyuan and David? The two of them had a cordial conversation.

Yes, Lu Shaohua used English instead of Chinese to talk to Yang Zhiyuan, even if Yang Zhiyuan can speak Chinese, Lu Shaohua also talked to him in English, who let David? Philo is also next to him, Lu Shaohua can't use English, so what about David? Philo was disrespectful.

"It's a pleasure to have you in California." Yang Zhiyuan smiled, shook hands with Lu Shaohua, and said in English.

David? Philo was the same, shook hands with Lu Shaohua, and said, "Welcome to Sunnyvale City." ”

"It's my pleasure." Lu Shaohua also smiled politely, and then continued. "I'm glad you guys came to pick you up."

For Lu Shaohua, there is no distinction between high and low, at least there is no distinction between high and low people, as long as there is an identity distinction from other angles, and now Lu Shaohua is the identity of a person with Yang Zhiyuan and David? Fei Luo was talking to him, not in a business capacity - the chairman of the Phoenix Group talked to him, so Lu Shaohua did not put on a high appearance.

In fact, Lu Shaohua has nothing to put on a score, in his opinion, he just has more money than others, and his energy is greater than others, and everything else is no different, the same is a pair of hands, a pair of feet, a pair of eyes and a mouth.

It is undeniable that Lu Shaohua won Yang Zhiyuan and David so kindly? Fei Luo's favor was followed by a few small talks, and then Yang Zhiyuan invited Lu Shaohua into the car, and then the team drove away from Yang.

…… On the Lincoln extended version of the car, in addition to Lu Shaohua, Yang Zhiyuan and David were sitting opposite? The two of Philo, because the airport is a long distance from Yahoo's headquarters, also caused a good opportunity for the three of them to talk.

I don't know if it's because Lu Shaohua is a Chinese, on the contrary, Yang Zhiyuan feels that Lu Shaohua is very kind, but he doesn't put on that kind of official talk. It may also be because Yang Zhiyuan himself is an anxious surname, so when the team set off, Yang Zhiyuan couldn't wait to get to the point.

"I wonder why you fell in love with Yahoo?" Yang Zhiyuan frowned and asked.

Yang Zhiyuan still uses 'you' instead of 'you', using honorifics, in addition to showing respect to Lu Shaohua, there is also a matter of etiquette, after all, Lu Shaohua came to the United States, he Yang Zhiyuan is the host, Lu Shaohua is a guest, and he is a master whose identity is not simple.

Yang Zhiyuan is now worth billions of dollars, but Yang Zhiyuan knows very well that he has no comparable surname with Lu Shaohua, not to mention anything else, just talking about pomp, he can't compare with Lu Shaohua.

Let's take a look, Lu Shaohua has 39 bodyguards around him, this is still because Li Shangkui did not come, if Li Shangkui also came, then Lu Shaohua would have 40 bodyguards around him, and Lu Shaohua did not come by an ordinary flight, but by a special plane.

He, Yang Zhiyuan, can also be like Lu Shaohua, hire dozens of bodyguards and buy a special plane, but he is not worthy of his identity, even if he wants to do that, he must consider what the outside world thinks.

Lu Shaohua didn't squeak in a hurry, just stopped and said. "You can call me Xiaohua or Lu Dong, it doesn't matter, as for what you asked, why you fell in love with Yahoo, there are many reasons for this, but one thing is certain, that is, I am optimistic about Yahoo's prospects."

It's very objective and official, but this doesn't mean that it's not the truth, on the contrary, it's the truth, Lu Shaohua is optimistic about Yahoo's prospects and future potential, otherwise he wouldn't have moved his mind to acquire Yahoo.

Maybe Lu Shaohua's words coming out of someone else's mouth will make people feel that they are an official answer, but Lu Shaohua's words are matched with his serious expression, whether it is Yang Zhiyuan or David? Fei Luo, they didn't doubt it at all, Lu Shaohua used the official form to bluff them.

The two glanced at each other and nodded imperceptibly, obviously, what Lu Shaohua did satisfied them, at this moment, they had already made a decision in their hearts, a very tacit decision, but they did not rush to express it, but bypassed the topic and talked about some light topics.

Lu Shaohua has been rolling in the business world for so many years, how can he not understand the rules here, it is impossible for the two sides to talk about the acquisition at once when they meet, and the question that Yang Zhiyuan just asked has obviously cut to the topic, and it can be regarded as a violation.

Knowing their intentions, Lu Shaohua didn't say much at the moment, and easily talked to Yang Zhiyuan and David? Fei Luo chatted until Yahoo's headquarters, and Yang Zhiyuan invited Lu Shaohua to visit Yahoo's headquarters.

At the same time of invitation, Yang Zhiyuan also politely asked Lu Shaohua if he needed to rest? After Lu Shaohua refused to rest, Yang Zhiyuan and David? The two of them led the way and visited Yahoo's headquarters together.

I have to say that Yahoo's headquarters is a beautiful office building, and it is brand new, it seems that it has not been long since it moved in, giving people a very energetic feeling, and Lu Shaohua is quite interested.

In this way, Lu Shaohua walked around the headquarters of Yahoo for an afternoon, and it was not until five o'clock in the afternoon that Lu Shaohua said goodbye to Yang Zhiyuan and David? The two of Fei Luo, and then took Li Wusheng and his party to stay in the hotel that had been arranged, and did not talk about the acquisition of Yahoo shares from beginning to end.

However, the absence of talks does not mean that the dull past, when bidding farewell to the two, Lu Shaohua put forward a request to enter the negotiations the next day, and also asked Yang Zhiyuan and David? The agreement of the two of Philo can be regarded as determining the time.

Don't forget, Lu Shaohua is full of plans, he can't stay in the United States for too long for a Yahoo, if he hadn't just come over, Lu Shaohua would almost want to enter the negotiations immediately, and then leave the United States quickly.

There was no way, Lu Shaohua took a plane for more than ten hours, even if he had a break along the way, it was obviously not suitable for negotiation, and it was not very good to enter the negotiation process just after he came, so Lu Shaohua chose to postpone and change.

Now that the negotiation date has been determined, it is set at nine o'clock in the morning of the second day, and Lu Shaohua can also sleep well in the hotel with peace of mind, as for whether tomorrow's negotiation can be successful, Lu Shaohua does not think so much.

It's not that Lu Shaohua doesn't think about it, but Lu Shaohua doesn't want to think about it, because in Lu Shaohua's mind, Yang Zhiyuan and David? Since the two of them asked to see him, they were already interested in selling their shares, and the reason why they wanted to enter the negotiations was nothing more than to get a little benefit for themselves.

It hasn't been long since Yahoo's market capitalization just exceeded $10 billion, far from reaching $39 billion at the end of this year, and what Lu Shaohua needs is to own more than 51% of the shares. Let's say Yahoo has a market capitalization of $10 billion right now, and a 51% stake is $5.1 billion.

5.1 billion US dollars may be a lot of money in the eyes of others, but for Lu Shaohua, it is just a drizzle, and Lu Shaohua can even pay 10 billion US dollars to buy 51% of the shares, so Lu Shaohua is not worried that the negotiations will fail at all.

Moreover, Lu Shaohua had already thought about the draft in his heart, and the promise he made was definitely very tempting, so he was not afraid of Yang Zhiyuan and David? The two of them will not agree to sell their shares.

But then again, Yang Zhiyuan and David? The two of Fei Luo hold more than 51% of Yahoo shares, but there are other shares in the hands of other shareholders, and now even Lu Shaohua is going to buy Yahoo, Yang Zhiyuan and David? It is impossible for the two of them to sell all the shares in their hands, and it is certain to leave some of them.

Yang Zhiyuan and David? How many shares will the two of them leave behind?

What Lu Shaohua can't guess here, it is also the only headache for Lu Shaohua in this negotiation, because Lu Shaohua doesn't know Yang Zhiyuan's bottom line, and he doesn't know how many shares they hold in their hands, which causes Lu Shaohua to not have a complete plan for the time being.

Well, make a hypothesis, if Yang Zhiyuan and David? Fei Luo and the two of them each hold 30% of the shares, and the two of them add up to 60%, and one of them wants to keep 20% of the shares, and Lu Shaohua can only acquire 20%, which is a little far from Lu Shaohua's 51% target, and Lu Shaohua has to think of another way to achieve the goal.

"Hey......"

Lu Shaohua sighed and muttered to himself. "When we negotiate tomorrow, all the mysteries will be revealed."

yes, when the negotiation process begins, won't the mystery be revealed?
