"Yahoo is not optimistic!" Shake your head, Andrew? Freeman picked up the microphone and said, "Yahoo's board of directors has changed its previous hesitant position and firmly opposed the subscription of goog1e stock, and Forbes' feature on our goog1e last month gave Yahoo a lot of stimulus!" In addition, Yang Zhiyuan's attitude is ambiguous and his position is not firm...... It is very likely that Yahoo will seek to sell Goog1E and Chenxing Network's shares, and some newspapers have previously revealed that there are many PEs interested in taking over all Goog1E shares in Yahoo's hands, but Chenxing Network is not interested! ”

Song Chen was silent, not because Yahoo was ready to sell Goog1E's stake to embarrass him, but because from the position of the Chinese, Yang Zhiyuan, the "Yahoo chief" who had great influence on Yahoo, finally chose to part ways with him, which made him feel sad.

It is very difficult to work hard in a foreign country, and there are unimaginable difficulties and ups and downs ahead, if Yang Zhiyuan, who is a Chinese person, can encourage each other and walk side by side with him, it will obviously be beneficial to both parties. However, because of the conflict of interests, Yang Zhiyuan seems to have finally made a choice that is in line with the nature of business.

Everyone looked at the spiritual leader in their minds, and saw that he was slightly depressed, which was somewhat surprising, but Song Chen's women knew what their men were thinking, and Zhai Yue was about to say something to comfort, only to see Song Chen's cheeks twitch slightly, and then said softly: "If Yahoo intends to seek to sell goog1e and the equity of Chenxing Network...... Freeman, after this summit, you can meet with Yang Zhiyuan to talk about the repurchase of shares! ”

Before Song Chen's words fell, everyone, including Zhai Yan, frowned fiercely: This is not in the interests of the parent company!

Andrew? Freeman mused, "Why? We have an agreement with our shareholders that we have the right to buy back once Yahoo chooses to sell shares of Goog1E or Chenxing Network! If we take the initiative to contact the other party, this is tantamount to giving the other party the confidence to sit on the ground and start the price! ”

"Although I am in business, Yahoo and Yang Zhiyuan have given me and the company great help after all, and I should personally give Yang Zhiyuan an explanation!" Before he finished speaking, Cai Chongxin and others wanted to make suggestions. Song Chen raised a hand, and then continued, with a kind of loneliness and faint self-deprecation in his tone, "No need to persuade, this is why I handed over the power to you instead of managing it myself, I am not a calm and rational entrepreneur, and the capital that pursues profits is not allowed to save unnecessary sensibilities!" ”

Joe Tsai and Andrew? Freeman looked at each other, but Zhai Yan shook his head lightly at Cai Chongxin, signaling that they didn't need to persuade anymore.

See the atmosphere is heavy, Erik? Schmidt glanced at Zeng Qian, who was controlling the projector. Ask her to change the picture. Rug? Filip stepped up to the podium, picked up the microphone and said: "Paypa1's total revenue last year was $70 million, and the total revenue in the first quarter of this year was $210 million, an increase of 67% year-on-year and 3o quarter-on-quarter, with a total of 1.32 million ...... of registered users worldwide."

Rug? Fili's report sent the executives present in deep thought, and Paypa1 is now in the same awkward position as eBay.

On the one hand, eBay's descendant payment technology BI11Point has not been recognized by the majority of users, and it still uses more advanced technology. More friendly paypa1, which makes Meg? Whitman had to maintain a brief alliance with Paypa1; On the other hand, although eBay endorses the partnership with Paypa1. However, eBay's advertising and preferential resources are infinitely inclined to bi11point, which makes Song Chen, Loge? Fili and Eric Schmidt are concerned about eBay's growth.

At the same time, 8848 has made good progress in vertical e-commerce in the United States, and the sales of the American branch reached 249 million US dollars in 1999. However, 8848 still further supports Paypa1's performance in the short term.

To Song Chen's surprise, a month ago. Cybersecurity executive Andrei? In a year and a half, Luo Deng led his team to develop the world's most advanced network security solution "Hedgehog System", which has hundreds of patents, which makes Paypa1 expected to form a new revenue growth point on the basis of online payment.

This is also the result of Song Chen's unintentional planting of flowers.

Based on the rampant hacking activities in later generations, he once repeatedly warned Logge? Filip and other executives paid attention to the cybersecurity incident, and also asked Chenxing Software's Chinese engineers to track down the world's advanced technology to open the firewall, and how to protect it, the layman Song Chen did not ask.

As a result, there is no news from Chenxing Software, but Paypa1 has already had rich results, which makes Song Chen both surprised and depressed, and is the difference between Chinese and American network security technology so big?

Eric? Schmidt turned his chair to face Song Chen, and said, "You can upgrade this technical team to a network security business department and be responsible for your own profits and losses!" ”

Rug? Fili nodded: "This is also the plan I am working on, I hope that the 'Hedgehog System' can be applied to the brother company as soon as possible!" ”

See Logg? Filip hit the snake with the stick, and the other executives couldn't help laughing, and Song Chen said: "Then so be it!" However, there is one point, because there is no extra attention to your network security engineering technology in advance, which conflicts with the research project of the Chinese company, so it is necessary for Paypa1 to export the core technology and patents to China Chenxing Software, and let the two teams continue to study in depth on this basis! ”

"This ......" Logge? Fili's face changed. This reflection is similar to Sergey, who originally developed the parallel computing number library and cheap server assembly scheme? Boole and Larry? Paige reacted the same, with reluctance and arrogance.

Song Chen said lightly: "As for you and Andre? With the support of Luo Deng, I will ask Chenxing Software to separate the relevant technical personnel from it and integrate them into the new business department, so that they will be responsible for the technical research, sales and maintenance of the Chinese market! ”

All the senior executives present were right, if they guessed correctly, this is the case of the integration of multinational business units of Zhongmei Chenxing Holdings. From this point of view, sooner or later, the two major groups will complete an unprecedented merger and form a large-scale Internet group with unprecedented scale!

Although I feel that I am at a loss, but Logge? Filip is also aware of the inevitability of in-depth integration of the group's business in the future, so he nods yes.

Song Chen vs. Zhu Tiejun, Zhai Yan and Eric? After the summit in Hong Kong, all relevant engineers will be integrated into this business unit, so paypa1 will become our group's network security solution provider, and then consider whether to divest this business unit to establish a first-class security company based on performance!" ”

Once it is decided that Paypa1's security division will become the group's solution company, according to the internal payment system, Paypa1's revenue this year will inevitably be higher, although it is only a left-handed and right-handed matter.

But, Logge? Filet and Paypa1 employees will still receive performance benefits.

Rug? After Filip stepped down, it was Gabe's turn? Newell, Gabe, who can't even hide his figure from the podium? Newell gave a briefing on Va1Ve's revenue for the quarter, in addition to the game engine, and then focused on what he just mentioned: opening an online version of Half-Life: Counter-Strike.

For Gabe? Newell's plan, Song Chen had no objection.

Looking back on his memory, "Crossfire", which once impressed him all over China in his previous life, is not much better than the current product "Counter-Strike", both in terms of technology and picture texture. In other words, the online version of Counter-Strike came out early, and success should be easily conceivable.

But then a problem arises.

"Newell, if you want to open an online version of Counter-Strike, the online version of Counter-Strike will conflict with the stand-alone version of Counter-Strike, have you considered it?" Song Chen asked with a stern expression.

Gaby? Newell was stunned and said, "How so? One is a stand-alone version and one is a network version! ”

Song Chen doesn't understand anything else, but when it comes to online game exhibitions, there is probably no one present and even in the world who understands the changes and trends of this industry better than him. He shook his head and said, "Then let me ask you, what kind of charging method do you plan to use for the online version of "Half-Life"?" ”

"I don't think there's a problem with the way the card is pointed!" Gaby? Newell seems to have come to his senses.

"Regardless of the value of the card, users only need to buy a one-time payment for the stand-alone version of "Counter-Strike", and then use the LAN to fight, why use the network version with virtual card restrictions?"

Li Wei nodded: "Yes, if the LAN battle function was not opened beforehand, it would be fine, since it has been opened, it will conflict with the online game version of "Counter-Strike"!" ”

Song Chen is right, Gabe? Newell cautiously asked, "What do you mean, boss?" ”

"Counter-Strike itself has a LAN battle function, and there should be no technical difficulties in adding an online game version on the basis of this version, so the opening cycle should be very short, right?"

Gaby? Newell nodded: "Yes! ”

Song Chen continued: "Counter-Strike can still be sold for 12 years, and instead of rushing to divide the profits of online games, it is better to consolidate and accumulate your own technical foundation! 3D games are a trend, and the beautiful and realistic picture quality will become more popular with the improvement of hardware, so in addition to the sequel "Half-Life 2", concentrating on technical elites to tackle search engine technology can make VA1VE grow more healthily! ”

After a pause, Song Chen smiled: "As I often say with other executives, Newell, VA1VE is not a listed company, you don't need to tell investors the story of 'return on investment'!" However, you can tell me a little bit about the relationship between the 'picture' and the 'engine'! ”
