Chapter 10 Difficulties in annexing LBMs and QQ

Here's the thing, LBM tried to develop its own operating system software, and as a result, it got bogged down and failed. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

As a result, it was difficult to continue to develop in the field of personal computers, so LBM wanted to gradually withdraw from the personal business and focus on serving enterprise users.

The computer software and hardware services required by enterprises are somewhat different from those of individuals, especially large enterprises, which attach great importance to stability, need to be turned on for a long time without software and hardware errors, and the amount of data processed is very huge.

In fact, Su Le was also involved in this aspect of the business, but he did not spend too much energy on it, but only used the software and hardware resources of Dai Yi Computer and Windos to buy shares, and partnered with some investors to build a company.

At present, this company mainly serves some small and medium-sized enterprises, which can be regarded as Sule's marginal investment, even if there is a problem, it will not have much impact......

Unlike the Dai Er computer established by Su Le, LBM is a long-established enterprise known as the blue giant, and has a lot of good business in the computer-related field.

Although LBM suffered the loss of Dai Er's computer, if this direct competitor was willing to take over, it was not impossible to transfer the personal computer business to Dai Er.

However, Su Le did not want to take over LBM's personal computer business entirely, he only wanted the brand, technology and patents, which would make LBM more problematic and he needed to find a way to relocate the employees of the personal computer department.

In short, Su Le had to seize the opportunity to negotiate, so that he could not accompany Xia Yingying.

"Sorry, I need to be away for a while." Su Le said guiltily to his lover.

"Okay, anyway, Amazon's affairs are pretty much handled here." Xia Yanying returned to a cold state, probably venting some dissatisfaction in her heart.

"It's really a bit sudden, and there are important matters that must be handled on Dai Er's computer."

"I understand, you can go without worry, I will help you deal with this side of the matter."

"It's up to you here... You mean I have a lot of shares! So how about I transfer half of Amazon's shares to you? Su Le said to Xia Yingying.

"I also understand that you are helping me, and I am grateful, I don't need shares, as long as you remember to come and see me, this is also your home."

"Well—I should be coming to the United States in the near future, and I'll be back when I have time."

After breakfast, Su Le took the earliest flight back to Beidu, planning to acquire LBM personal computer technology, as well as a series of brands such as TinkPad and TinkPC. After some research and discussion, Dai Er Computer formed a mixed team of technicians and lawyers to negotiate in the United States......

The acquisition negotiations were very unsmooth, and LBM was in no hurry to exit the PC market at this time. Unless Dai Yi Computer is willing to take it over with the staff, it will be very expensive to buy only the brand and technology.

If Su Le gets additional funds from the system at this time, coupled with the liquidity of Tencent Group, he can almost provide a satisfactory offer for LBM. However, there is no sign that the funds from the system have arrived, and at this time Sule cannot afford not to accept the purchase price of employees.

However, Su Le was anxious to expand his share of the personal computer market, and after careful consideration, he decided to take over LBM's personal computer business in its entirety, including people, brand and technology, so Su Le needed to talk to Xia Xianying first.

LBM's personal computer business was squeezed by Dai Er Computer, and this department must be bloated, otherwise LBM would not have broken his arm.

Salespeople don't have much of a problem and can continue to market computers and Amazon's Kinddle all over the United States. The R&D personnel are a little troublesome, Su Le does not want to set up too many technical positions in the US branch, and these American technical workers do not want to come to work in the northern capital, so Su Le plans to transfer these industry insiders to Amazon for the pre-development of a new shopping website.

This requires permission from Xia Yingying, who has a strong desire to control Amazon, and it is better to talk to her about adding offices and employees......

To put it mildly, coupled with Su Le's ability to give Xia Yingying more satisfaction outside of her career, Amazon's helmsman finally agreed to expand the company and accept LBM employees.

After repeated bargaining, the largest acquisition negotiations in history were finally completed, and Su Le went to LBM's headquarters to complete the signing, and LBM divested its personal computer business and officially withdrew from the market.

Dai Er Computer replaced LBM as the industry hegemon, and just as Su Le was about to bundle the new version of the Windos system to launch a Q'Q-like chat software, Dintel suddenly had a hard time, disrupting Su Le's pace.

Seeing that LBM had given up the production of desktop computers for personal use, Dintre took advantage of the expiration of the contract to no longer authorize Amd to copy desktop computer processors, and at the same time took the opportunity to significantly increase the price of desktop processors.

These are all expected to happen, and they have long been gradually reflected in Dyntle's share price.

Su Le holds a lot of Dinter's stock, and he doesn't lose much money. Moreover, the price increase of Dinter processors is not for Dai Er Computer, but there are discounts for Dai Er Computers to purchase Dinter's processors.

It's just that in this way, the price of the whole machine will rise, which will affect the promotion of personal computers, and then affect Su Le's next plan to promote instant messaging software.

Su Le decided to wait until the stock price reached a high point, sell his shares in batches, buy Amud's shares instead, and fully support this Dinter competitor.

Dinter will inevitably be identified as using a monopoly position to make profits, as long as Dai Yi Computer is slightly biased in favor of Ahmad, it will definitely be able to support him, and the large number of Ahmad shares purchased at a low point in advance can also make a lot of money.

This required a period of waiting and operation, so Su Le set up a new software subsidiary as planned to develop instant messaging software, named Q'Q with the pronunciation of "Keyoukeyou", and tried it internally.

Su Le knew the importance of Keyoukeyou, invested a lot of manpower to speed up R&D and testing, and soon completed the public beta and began to promote, and the response was quite good.

However, due to the sharp price increase of Dingtel, the sales of computer machines have declined, the market growth has been slow, and the emerging Internet industry has also encountered a cold winter.

Although Su Le was already very cautious, it was still due to the rapid expansion, which made the funds tight, but fortunately, the new system funds of one billion yuan arrived at this time, which alleviated Su Le's urgent need.

The funding gap is a little smaller, but because the stall is too big, there is still a lack of money, so Su Le wants to sell Keyoukeyou.

However, there is no clear profit model for the instant messaging business, and people in the industry are spending the winter, and no one is willing to buy Keyouyou with a low price of 2 million yuan.

In all kinds of helplessness, Su Le thought of Yang Meilai, if this young big sister can come to help and make the group's insurance business bigger, these companies in Su Le's hands should be able to survive the winter safely.
