423.Super Powerful Combination (1/3)
A week, just one week later, the landscape of the Shijie Internet has changed dramatically!
First of all, the official website of Google announced that it would spend $5.1 billion to acquire Youtube, which caused a big earthquake as soon as this news came out!
Whether it is the amount of the acquisition or the object of the acquisition, it is shocking.
Many people in the circle know that whether it is many venture capitalists, or Microsoft, Google, Yahoo and other Internet giants are salivating for Youtube, but unfortunately this company has always been a company that does not enter the oil and salt, never integrates even half a cent of external funds, and develops completely on its own, which is a rare company that maintains complete independence.
Of course, this development model has also caused a lot of rumors, some say that the boss of this company is a certain Internet giant, this video site is one of their hole cards, and some say that it is the 'graduation homework' of the rich second generation of a chaebol, and they do not raise money because they are not bad for money......
But no matter how the outside world spreads, Youtube still does its own thing, maintaining a maverick style.
The only thing that is a little greasy is that this video site is very close to Facebook, and the two sides have cooperated many times, and Facebook is also a wonderful flower of the Internet, although it has received venture capital so far, but it seems to only come from a small investment company, and other investment companies are ignored.
This has also caused many people who do not know the truth to look sideways at the exchange of these two maverick websites, which is not malicious and obscene conjectures......
HOWEVER, IT IS CLEAR THAT WITH THIS STATEMENT FROM GOOGLE, IT IS CLEAR THAT THE PAIR OF GOOD FRIENDS ARE NOW GOING TO PART WAYS.
Today, Youtube, the world's largest video website, has been quietly won by GOOGLE, and it has cost a sky-high price. This news has undoubtedly instantly become the most explosive news on the Internet this year, the absolute NO.1, and the power is comparable to a super tsunami.
TWO HOURS AFTER THE ANNOUNCEMENT, GOOGLE HELD A PRESS CONFERENCE, WITH 83 JOURNALISTS PRESENT, AND THE ENTIRE VENUE WAS FILLED WITH NEARLY 300 PEOPLE.
At the press conference. THE SPOKESPERSON OF GOOGLE IS FULL OF ENTHUSIASM TO MAKE A SERIES OF PROMISES, ISN'T IT, ANYONE WILL BE EXCITED TO MAKE SUCH A BIG DEAL.
YOU MUST KNOW THAT THIS IS A $5.1 BILLION SPENT, AND THE ACQUISITION OF THE WORLD'S NUMBER ONE VIDEO WEBSITE, SUCH A BLOCKBUSTER DEAL HAS BEEN COMPLETED, WHETHER YOU ARE PERSONALLY INVOLVED IN IT OR NOT, EVEN AS A MEMBER OF GOOGLE WILL FEEL PROUD.
Because since then, the world's number one video site has been theirs!!
BUT LOOK AT THE FEMALE GOOGLE EMPLOYEE ON THE STAGE WITH A SMUG SMILE. It is estimated that Yahoo and Microsoft's competitors will smash the cup, in fact, they are really like smashing the cup at the moment, but unfortunately there is no way to fall, almost several responsible persons have been questioned by the board of directors, and such a piece of pie has been taken by the opponent, which is definitely a manifestation of extreme incompetence.
"Waste, incompetent ......!" These words are probably the words that the heads of several major Internet companies have heard the most in the past two days. But it's hard for them to argue with that.
YOU MUST KNOW THAT GOOGLE IS THE WORLD'S NUMBER ONE SEARCH ENGINE, AND AT THIS MOMENT IT HAS ACQUIRED THE WORLD'S NUMBER ONE VIDEO WEBSITE. IT ALSO HAS THE WORLD'S SECOND VIDEO WEBSITE, SUCH AN INTEGRATION, A NEW BEHEMOTH IS DEFINITELY ABOUT TO APPEAR, AND GOOGLE'S MARKET VALUE ON THE DAY ALSO SOARED A LOT ......
HOWEVER, JUST WHEN EVERYONE WAS STILL IMMERSED IN THIS HUGE ACQUISITION, GOOGLE'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS SUDDENLY WROTE ANOTHER NAME ON THE LIST WITHOUT ANYONE KNOWING.
This name naturally belongs to Ye Sumang.
Ye Sumang actually didn't expect it. IT IS DEFINITELY AN UNEXPECTED SURPRISE THAT HE WAS ABLE TO GET THE OPPORTUNITY TO GET A HUGE STAKE IN GOOGLE, AND TO BE ABLE TO JOIN THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND BECOME ONE OF THE MAJOR SHAREHOLDERS WITH 5.1%, WHICH IS ALSO THE MOST SUCCESSFUL PART OF THE NEGOTIATION THAT YE SUMANG BELIEVES. Even more than the $5.1 billion he earned, he was happy.
OF COURSE, GOOGLE'S SHARES ARE NOT SO EASY TO GET, AND YE SUMANG HAS PAID A LOT WHILE GETTING IT.
Not only did he reinvest a lot of the money he just earned, but he also paid a lot of money for Facebook's original stock, of which Facebook's original stock undoubtedly played a decisive role. The reason why Page is willing to exchange his shares.
At this point, it was definitely a win-win deal.
Larry? Page was actually reluctant to take out his shares as bargaining chips at first, after all, his shares have been diluted since the listing, which is particularly detrimental to his control of the board of directors, but fortunately, everyone is very convinced of him at present, and his leadership position is beyond doubt, but people must have near-term worries, Larry? Page is definitely not a fool, and no one can say what will happen in the future, so he is also using the dividends in his hand to buy some scattered stocks and equity in the hands of minority shareholders all the time to add weight to himself.
But all this is in front of Facebook's original stake, Larry? Paige's heart couldn't help but waver.
As the world's No. 1 social networking site, with hundreds of millions of registered users, although it is not listed, but the appraisal price is more than 351 US dollars, these data do not show that this website has extraordinary potential, and many people in the industry are even calling this company the second 'Google miracle', believing that it is another miraculous initiative of Liliang in the 21st century after the Google search engine.
Not to mention the influence of the company itself, which is still on top of Youtube, if you can get the original shares of Facebook, become one of its major shareholders and even one of the decision-makers, and tie it to Google's chariot, it will definitely be a super combination, Larry? PAGEA CAN EVEN YUJIAN THE TIME OF GOOGLE DOMINATION OF THE WEB IN THE FUTURE......
In the face of such a great temptation, Larry? Page is also willing to take risks, and this kind of cross-shareholding, which can be regarded as a layer of insurance, can tie the boy in front of him who is like a 'son of God' to his chariot, and he feels that the stake is also worth it.
And for this fellowship. Ye Sumang also has his own opinions.
ALTHOUGH THERE IS NO GUNPOWDER SMOKE ON THE BATTLEFIELD OF THE NETWORK, THE INVISIBLE KNIFE IS EVEN MORE HURTFUL, AND EVERY STEP NEEDS TO BE CAUTIOUS, ESPECIALLY IN THE FACE OF PREDATORS LIKE GOOGLE.
You must know that this shijie will not be very kind because the other party is very famous, on the contrary, these big companies are often a crocodile that can't eat enough. They will continue to eliminate the weak liliang next to them to satisfy themselves and strengthen themselves, so this time trading Ye Sumang also has a great risk.
And after paying for these, Ye Sumang naturally has half of the ownership of Android that he has already gotten in order to be anything else.
Maybe even Larry? Page couldn't have imagined that Ye Sumang had gone around so many times, and even did not hesitate to pay part of Facebook's original shares, in order to escort the now inconspicuous Android system.
The end result of this deal is: Ye Sumang received $5.1 billion, half of the ownership of Android, 5.1% of Google's shares and board seats, and paid 7% of Facebook's original shares, and the entire Youtube website still has $3 billion that has just arrived......
YE SUMANG GOT WHAT HE WANTED, AND GOOGLE EVEN MORE SO, AND BECAUSE OF THIS DEAL, GOOGLE ACTUALLY ONLY SPENT $2.1 BILLION. THIS ALSO SAVES A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF GOOGLE'S WORKING CAPITAL BUDGET, WHICH IS IMPORTANT FOR THE FUTURE OF THE MOBILE ALLIANCE. Google Eyes and the development of the search engine have left a large amount of activity funds, and the initial budget report can also be thrown out of the clouds.
In the business suite of the Hilton Hotel, Ye Sumang sat in front of his laptop and kept tapping on the keyboard, and the words jumped on the document, forming a sophisticated jihua that would affect the future development of the Internet for a long time. Ye Sumang stopped his fingers, took a sip of the coffee that was already cold in his hand, and looked at the night scene as usual through the floor-to-ceiling window.
These seven days are enough to describe the world as turning upside down, and his identity has changed dramatically in just one week.
The Youtube that used to be no longer belongs to me, and my identity has changed. BECAME A MAJOR SHAREHOLDER OF GOOGLE.
However, Ye Sumang did not completely let go of everything, feeling that this was the final perfect ending, it was Happy-Ending, but in Ye Sumang's heart, all this was just the beginning.
GOOGLE HAS OBTAINED FACEBOOK'S SHARES, IT WILL DEFINITELY NOT BE SO DUTY, LOOKING AT GOOGLE'S MEANS IN RECENT YEARS, THE BLOODY MOUTH WILL DEFINITELY NOT BE CLOSED ALL THE TIME, JUST LIKE A TIGER CAN NEVER BECOME A DOMESTIC CAT, AND IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR A MEAT EATER TO GNAW ON A RADISH, SO YE SUMANG HAD TO GUARD AGAINST GOOGLE AND PREVENT HIM FROM BITING HIMSELF BEHIND HIS BACK.
Especially Facebook, which is the brainchild of himself and Mark, does not want to be pointed at or even accepted and swallowed by irrelevant people on the road of future development.
In Ye Sumang's future jihua, as the Facebook website matures, his own shares of Facebook will be gradually sold to Mark, so that he can really grasp the company's highest shares, all of which is also for the future company's listing considerations, in Ye Sumang's view, Mark is the best chairman of Facebook in the future, after all, Ye Sumang does not think that Americans will give themselves a Chinese opportunity to gain the dominance of such a large social networking site, If Facebook wants to avoid a lot of trouble in the future, it is necessary to push Mark to power.
And now Google's stake undoubtedly makes Ye Sumang have to speed up this jihua, so from now on, his own transfer of Facebook's equity and listing of jihua will undoubtedly be advanced.
Rubbing his temples, Ye Sumang sighed softly, in just one week, Ye Sumang actually gave birth to gray hair, although it was only one or two that were found inadvertently, but this still made the twenty-three-year-old boy quite melancholy, and sure enough, this kind of brain war was the most exhausting.
Fortunately, everything has been completed, and all that remains is the offensive and defensive layout, as long as it is grasped well, the future development is unlimited.
And Ye Sumang is also ready to return to Huaxia, because in the near future, Ye Sumang's four-year college career is finally coming to an end...... (To be continued......)
