California.

The famous Apple company is located in California, USA, no, it should not be said that the later generations, the current Apple, is also very famous. Although, now Apple's stock price has been falling due to financial constraints. However, the return of Apple CEO Steve Jobs still makes many shareholders full of expectations for Jobs.

Today, Steve Jobs is in a good mood, and in his struggle with capital, he finally re-entered Apple.

"Mr. Jobs, Wang Zhidong, the founder of Sina, is waiting for you in the reception room?"

"Sina?"

Mr. Jobs had never heard of Sina.

Of course, Jobs cannot be blamed for this, after all, everyone believes that the center of the world's Internet is in the United States.

Similarly, all eyes are on the United States.

No matter how famous Sina is in China, no one in the United States will know about it.

What's more, the current Sina, he is nothing at all.

"Sina is one of the top three portals in China."

"Oh."

This statement, Jobs has a hint of reflection.

He remembered that among the NASDAQ China concept stocks, there was indeed a company called Sina that had been listed.

"What is he here for?"

"He said he wanted to talk about a partnership with Apple."

"Cooperation?"

Although Jobs didn't know what this specific cooperation was, Jobs, who had just regained control of Apple, needed to reform and promote their business faster. After thinking about it for a while, Jobs said, "Okay, you tell him to wait a minute, I'll be here later." ”

About ten minutes later, Jobs met Wang Zhidong in the conference room.

At this time, Wang Zhidong looked at this legend in the IT industry with some excitement.

In this world, although Apple's market value has declined very significantly, it is far less than Microsoft, Intel, and even, even the current Yahoo, he has some incomparables. However, Apple was once brilliant, and Apple once created a personal PC computer. The IT era created by Apple has been influencing countless people.

Even Wang Zhidong, the king of China's Internet, admires Jobs very much.

Actually, it's not just Wang Zhidong. Ma Huateng of Tencent, who later generations, also said in public that Jobs was his idol.

"Hello, Mr. Jobs, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Seeing Jobs coming, Wang Zhidong, who was instructed by Zhang Ning, immediately stood up.

"Hello, Mr. Wang Zhidong, I have heard of your Sina website. However, your recent stake in Sina seems to be a bit bad. ”

"Yes, Mr. Jobs, that's what I'm here for."

Seeing this genius he admired for the first time, Wang Zhidong began to look a little restrained. However, thinking of Zhang Ning's guidance to him before he came, Wang Zhidong slowly breathed a sigh of relief. Then he spoke again, "Maybe you don't know, Mr. Jobs, I was the founder of Sina. However, I, like Jobs, have been kicked out of Sina by capital in the first few months. ”

"It's a really bad thing."

Jobs also had such an experience, and when he heard Wang Zhidong talk about it, he couldn't help but feel a little sympathetic.

However, Jobs was a good businessman after all, and he was also a shrewd businessman.

He seems to have guessed what Wang Zhidong is looking for him to do today?

"You mean, you want me to do you a favor?"

"Yes, I want Jobs to do me a favor in the media. I think that with your appeal in the IT world, I will definitely be able to return to Sina as you are now. ”

"Hehe, Mr. Wang Zhidong."

Hearing this help, Jobs didn't nod, but laughed, "I think you're looking for the wrong person, we have too many things to deal with at Apple." ”

With that, Jobs was leaving.

Yes, for Jobs, a guy he never knew ran out and could you please do me a favor?

Please, will you help?

I'm afraid, many people will hesitate, not to mention, this is still in business.

There is no good help, the ghost will help you.

"No, wait, Mr. Jobs, I have one more gift for you."

"Oh?"

Slowly, Wang Zhidong took out a copy of the article from his briefcase.

When he opened it, a very beautiful computer design was revealed.

The design consists of a hemispherical base and a digital flat panel display supported by a rotating neck. It looks very weird and at the same time, but it's incredibly innovative. At a glance, Jobs knew that this was a completely new computer design pattern that no computer company in the market had ever designed.

At the same time, this also made Jobs excited.

He has just returned to Apple, and his first reform is to redesign Apple's appearance and interface. Because, in his thoughts. He wanted to create a new PC so that their Apple could once again attract the world's attention, just as he designed the world's first PC. It's just that during this period of time, he worshipped the world's first-class designers, including the world's best architects, and even car designers. However, no one could give him a computer design that caught his eye. But at this moment, just by looking at it, Jobs was attracted by this one blueprint.

With excitement and excitement, Jobs suddenly sat down again, "Mr. Wang Zhidong, I think we can talk slowly." ”

A few days later, the Sina Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders was officially held.

This shareholders' meeting attracted countless domestic media, large and small.

A few months ago, these media rushed to report that Wang Zhidong was kicked out of Sina by capital.

A few months later, the founder of Sina, who had been kicked out, came back again.

Only, can he really come back?

Not only the media expressed their expectations, but countless audience friends, they all expressed their expectations.

Of course, from a logical point of view, many people feel that Sina was founded by Wang Zhidong. The most suitable person to manage Sina is undoubtedly Wang Zhidong. Just like Zhang Chaoyang, the founder of Sohu, manages Sohu, and Ding Lei, the founder of NetEase, manages NetEase. However, at this moment, the founder of Sina was kicked out of Sina by the board of directors because of the relationship with capital.

However, the company is a joint-stock company, and he does not manage the company by reason. Whichever has the most shares, the more say it has. Obviously, Wang Zhidong's shareholding ratio is only 12%, which cannot pose a threat to the current board of directors. Could it be that Wang Zhidong is going to die at the shareholders' meeting this time?

Could it be that even if the shareholders' meeting is held this time, it will have no substantive effect?

"Wang Zhidong seems to be hanging."

In the dormitory of Yan University, several roommates from the Department of Computer Science and Zhang Ning were watching the live broadcast of the Sina shareholders' meeting.

"Yes, I really don't know what Wang Zhidong thinks, 12% of the shares still want to regain control of Sina?"

"That's it, I think this time the shareholders' meeting was held in vain."

Liu Zhangze, Wu Tao, and Chen Xiaodong discussed from time to time.

However, at this time, Zhang Ning did not say a word, and everyone looked at Zhang Ning, "Boss, please express your opinion." ”

Sina's convening of the shareholders' meeting is a major event, just like the struggle between Huang Guangyu and Chen Xiao of Gome Electric Appliances in the later generations, which is so eye-catching. At this time, both the media and domestic universities are boiling for this shareholders' meeting. There were even a few lecturers who directly changed the course of the day to "I look at the Sina Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders", so that these students of the computer department could discuss together.

"I'm very optimistic about Wang Zhidong."

"Strange, boss, how optimistic you are, there is no reason."

The crowd was strange.

Although Wang Zhidong is the founder of Sina, the equity is too small, and it is useless for you to support him again.

"Why is there no reason, Wang Zhidong doesn't have a 12% stake, why can't he retake the helm of Sina."

"But, boss, 12% of the shares are too small, how can you return to Sina?"

"At that time, Wang Zhidong was able to serve as the CEO of Sina with 6% of the shares, why can't he now."

"Hey......"

This said, some of the people were stunned by Zhang Ning, "You seem to be right when you say this, but, boss, there was no contradiction between Wang Zhidong and capital before, so Wang Zhidong was able to serve as the CEO of Sina with 6% of the shares, but now, after the listing, the contradiction between Wang Zhidong and the capital is public, and it is no longer possible to re-take charge of Sina with 6% of the shares." ”

As a rich second generation, Wu Tao has a double understanding of the company's equity struggle.

At this time, it made some sense to refute Zhang Ninglai.

"Hehe, Wu Tao, have you forgotten that in addition to these shareholders, there are countless retail investors, large and small?"

"Retail?"

Saying this, several people became excited again.

"It's still the boss. I understand that as long as all retail investors support Wang Zhidong at this shareholders' meeting, then it is really possible for Wang Zhidong to return to the helm of Sina. But ......"

"But what?"

However, Sina is listed in the United States, and Wang Zhidong may have some fame in China, but in the United States, Wang Zhidong's fame is estimated to be unknown to few people. Shareholders on the American side, will they vote for Wang Zhidong? ”

"Will it be, we'll know in a moment."

Zhang Ning did not continue to reveal how they would feel if he said that Jobs would come over in a while.

The camera slowly turned to the Sina shareholders' meeting.

As the core venue of this power struggle, Wang Zhidong and Sina's current management have attracted many onlookers as soon as they appeared. In addition, many media have interviewed representatives of the two sides.

"Excuse me, Mr. Duan Yongji, what do you think of Wang Zhidong's convening of the extraordinary shareholders' meeting?"

"What is there to see. I invested in Stone Lifang back then, and I also invested in Sina now. Many people say that Sina was founded by Wang Zhidong, but what I really want to say is that I actually created it. I don't think Wang Zhidong is suitable for Sina's management, so I will persuade other investors not to vote for Wang Zhidong at this shareholders' meeting. ”

Duan Yongji is not stupid, of course he knows that Wang Zhidong dares to hold a shareholders' meeting, and it is those retail investors who are aiming at it.

As long as retail investors are pulled, Wang Zhidong's 12% stake can also be at the helm of Sina again.

Of course, on the other side, Wang Zhidong, many media also interviewed him.

"Mr. Wang Zhidong, may I ask, Duan Yongji said that you are no longer suitable for Sina's management, what do you think?"

"I don't have anything to say, if I want to say, what is not suitable for Sina's management is Mr. Duan Yongji and the team he is supporting now. Take a look at Sina now, originally Sina was the first of the three major portals. However, after they took over, NetEase's table Xiàn has completely surpassed Sina. At the same time, Sina's stock on the Nasdaq has created an embarrassing situation of less than $1. I really want to ask, is Mr. Duan Yongji willing to bring down Sina Company? ”

One is the creator of Sina.

One is Wang Zhidong's past boss.

However, in order to compete for Sina, the two sides have officially declared a war.
