Chapter 317: Bill Gates
Although Bill still said very calmly, Tang Jun was already frightened and his back was cold.
He knows that although Bill, the founder of Microsoft, seems to be quite mild on the surface, his style has always been tough.
If anyone disobeys his orders, excuse me, and you will be fired.
In order to do a good job of what Bill told him, and in order not to make Bill think that he was perfunctory.
Before Tang Jun went to Penguin Technology, he also sent out the news that Microsoft was going to take a stake in Penguin.
Yes, Tang Jun, who has always been very wise, wants to use the media to put pressure on Zhang Ning.
Sure enough, Tang Jun's move worked surprisingly well.
When the media broke the news that Microsoft was interested in taking a stake in Penguin Technology, it caused a sensation.
A number of Internet media and TV media have reported on the incident.
At the same time, these media also invited relevant experts to conduct a detailed analysis of the incident.
Some experts say that Microsoft's stake in Penguin proves the value of Penguin.
Some experts also said that Penguin Technology has great potential and is worthy of Microsoft's investment.
Some experts also said that Microsoft's stake in Penguin will allow Microsoft to diversify.
However, more experts said that Microsoft's stake in Penguin is greatly beneficial to Penguin Technology.
They commented that although Penguin Tech is a very unique penguin, their instant messaging, their search engine, and even their games are very good. However, Penguin is still relatively small compared to the global supergiants. Moreover, Penguin Technology only has games out of the country, and the others are general, limited to domestic. Moreover, no matter how well Penguin Technology's business develops, it cannot be compared to a high-tech product such as an operating system. They explained that the addition of Microsoft will be of great benefit to Penguin's globalization strategy.
In addition, they also emphasize:
If Penguin Technology wants to go abroad and achieve greater development, it can only rely on Microsoft.
Without Microsoft, without the backing of a supergiant, Penguin will eventually be swallowed up by other businesses.
In short, in a word, for such a shareholding, they believe that for Penguin Technology, there is no harm in all kinds.
There are also some viewers who don't know the truth, and they all agree that this is the blessing of Penguin Technology.
What is Microsoft?
Penguin Technology, as a local company, what kind of company is it?
It is an honor for Penguin to be favored by Microsoft, and it is very welcome for Penguin to join Microsoft.
"Xiao Ning, what's the matter, did you promise Microsoft to take a stake in our penguins?"
Holding the newspaper, Chen Qingqing found Zhang Ning in a hurry.
"No, what's wrong."
Zhang Ning is also strange.
In the past two days, he stayed at home and thought of a lot of plans to deal with MSN.
Although I still haven't come up with anything too classic.
However, Zhang Ning was not too worried.
In his mind, with his own understanding of the future of instant messaging, the future of the Internet. Even if MSN enters the Chinese market, what about it? You can also defeat him yourself.
"And what's going on with these newspapers?"
Chen Qingqing handed the newspaper to Zhang Ning.
"Microsoft takes a stake in Penguin Technology!"
"Huh...... How did this news come out? ”
Frowning, Zhang Ning was a little strange.
"yes, if you didn't agree, I'm even more weird."
"Don't worry, I'll finish reading it first."
With patience, Zhang Ning finished reading all the news.
"Hehe, Sister Qing, don't worry, this kind of little trick also wants to force us."
"What's the little plan?"
Chen Qingqing didn't know why.
"Sister Qing, you see, this newspaper only reports that the media has rumored it, or it is revealed, that is to say, the news in this regard is just a rumor, not true. Of course, that's not the problem. The question is the opinion of the major domestic media, as well as some experts, and even some viewers. ”
"Yes, Xiao Ning, I'm worried about that. You see, these experts all think that Microsoft's acquisition or Microsoft's stake in Penguin Technology is very correct. ”
"Yes, that's right. It stands to reason that it is. However, they were wrong. Who is I, Zhang Ning, he is not the kind of person who is threatened by them, or talked about by the media, and I will change my mind. Sister Qing, a dime and a dime like me, do they still think of a strategy like guò to force me to agree to their request for shares? ”
"Oh, I see. Xiao Ning, you mean that such news is from Microsoft's side. The goal is to let the media influence us and then accept their stake in Microsoft. ”
"That's right."
Zhang Ning snapped his fingers, "And, I guess, in the near future, Tang Jun may find us even more." ”
Sure enough, after three days of great discussion in the media, Tang Jun found Zhang Ning again.
"We, Microsoft, want to take a stake in your Penguin Technology."
With a momentum of nine out of ten, Tang Jun said directly.
It's a pity that Tang Jun's momentum was ruthlessly challenged by Zhang Ning, and he didn't even raise his head, Zhang Ning said, "Send off guests." ”
However, for Zhang Ning's ignorance, Tang Jun continued, "We, Microsoft, only need 30% of your shares in Penguin Technology for $500 million. ”
It's a pity that Zhang Ning still didn't raise his head, and said again, "Send off guests." ”
"We at Microsoft will use a qiē resource to help you Penguin break into the international market."
"Sending off guests."
When Tang Jun reported one treatment after another, Zhang Ning responded with one sentence after another.
In the end, Tang Jun couldn't hold his breath, "Mr. Zhang, what do you mean?" ”
Originally, Tang Jun thought that through the large-scale discussion in the media, Microsoft's stake in Penguin could change Zhang Ning's opinion.
However, Tang Jun found that he was wrong, and Zhang Ning was not changed.
Originally, Tang Jun thought that with the huge investment of 500 million US dollars quoted by Microsoft, Zhang Ning could be tempted
However, Tang Jun found that he was also wrong, and Zhang Ning was not tempted.
Originally, Tang Jun thought that with the advantage of Microsoft's monopoly on the global operating system, Zhang Ning could join him.
However, Tang Jun found that he was wrong, and Zhang Ning had no interest in Microsoft at all.
"What do you mean, Mr. Tang, do I have to agree?"
"Isn't it?"
Tang Jun asked rhetorically, "Don't you think $500 million is a sky-high price?" Don't you think that joining Microsoft is the ultimate dream of all enterprises? Don't you want to tap into the global market with Microsoft's resources? ”
After a few rhetorical questions, it seems that this has been said again, and it is natural to join Microsoft.
Of course, this is Tang Jun's own opinion, or rather, this is what the public thinks.
However, the demonic Zhang Ning, he has a completely different view.
"Manager Tang, I think you are wrong, very wrong. I know you're going to ask, what's wrong with you. So, I'll tell you reluctantly. First of all, not all companies want to join Microsoft, and not all companies dream of becoming a company like Microsoft. Secondly, do you think $500 million is a lot, do you think it's a huge amount of money? Hehe, I think your news resources are too backward, not to mention our Penguin Technology, just our Penguin Game, our Penguin Game, our annual profit, is more than 500 million US dollars. Third, do you think you Microsoft have the resources? Although I also think that your operating system is very good, it has a global monopoly, and your other software, like office software, is also very good, and many people use it. However, if I say that your monopoly is going to run into trouble in the future, and even if such trouble is no longer possible to give us an advantage in terms of resources, do you think I will join Microsoft? Finally, and most importantly, do you think your Windows will always be used by others? Wouldn't he have something else to replace Windows? ”
At four o'clock, Tang Jun said that his face was blue and red.
Microsoft, which he has always been proud of, is not rare at all at this moment, in Zhang Ning's mouth.
It's just that this undoubtedly angered Tang Jun.
"Zhang Ning, do you really want to go against our Microsoft?"
"I never thought about it?"
"You're now, aren't you?"
"Hehe, Manager Tang, I have to wonder how you became the president of Microsoft China. Isn't it true that I don't agree to your stake in Microsoft? If that's the case, then you Microsoft are a little too banditry. ”
"You ......"
Hate, Tang Jun left Penguin Technology.
Zhang Ning originally thought that Tang Jun's departure and Microsoft's plan to take a stake in his company could be regarded as the end.
It's just that Zhang Ning couldn't imagine how attentive Microsoft was to Penguin Technology.
"Xiao Ning, Microsoft founder Bill came to our company."
"Didn't you say that you don't accept Microsoft's shares, I don't see."
After speaking, Zhang Ning seemed to feel that he had missed something, "Wait, Sister Qing, who did you just say came to our company." ”
"Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates."
"What ......"
Zhang Ning was dumbfounded.
Bill, the legendary richest man in the world, the founder of Microsoft, and the king of operating systems, actually came to his own company.
"What did he come to our company for? Or is it for the acquisition? ”
"He didn't say it, he just said that he wanted to meet you."
"See me?"
Am I well acquainted with him?
However, no matter whether he is familiar with it or not, such a big man, Zhang Ning will meet him no matter what he says.
"Mr. Zhang Ning, it's a pleasure to meet you."
When Zhang Ning saw Bill for the first time, Bill stretched out his right hand and shook hands with Zhang Ning very politely.
"Mr. Bill, so am I."
Seeing the legendary character for the first time, Zhang Ning was a little excited.
In previous lives, there was a lot of news about Bill, and there were many people who regarded Bill as an idol.
Zhang Ning didn't regard Bill as an idol, but he always felt that being able to rank first on the world's richest list for 13 consecutive years has proved that he is a real genius and unique in the world.
"Great, I've always felt, Mr. Zhang Ning, you hate me very much."
"Haha, how could it be, although I rejected your shareholding, I think it has nothing to do with whether I hate it or not."
"I admire your values, and I think so too."
Bill admires Zhang Ning, as evidenced by the fact that he was able to come to China in person and come to Penguin Tech in person.
"But what would you do if I said, I'm here anyway to convince you to join Microsoft?"
"Then I still refuse as always."
