Chapter 309: Playing is a heartbeat
"The two are Mr. Lin and Ms. Tan? Founder of IcQ? "Yang Zhiyuan and David. Fei Luo looked at the two young people in front of him with a suspicious expression, no wonder they were suspicious, it was really Lin Zheng and Tan Na who looked too young.
"Do you want to see our passports?" Lin Zheng said with a smile.
"No, no, no, no," didn't wait for Yang Zhiyuan to speak, David. Fei Luo hurriedly stopped Yang Zhiyuan's actions, "I believe that no one will pretend to be the founder of IcQ to come to us to cheat money...... We don't have any money to cheat anyway. ”
This guy is smart enough to direct the conversation to the question of money.
Lin Zheng and Tan Na laughed together.
After looking at this place, which is more called a warehouse than an office, Tan Na smiled and said, "You two, don't you want us to have a cup of coffee?" ”
Yang Zhiyuan and David. Fei Luo realized that he was a little rude, and hurriedly invited Lin Zheng and Tan Na inside, and said embarrassedly, "Oh...... Sorry, but we only have Nestle's melted coffee here......"
Yahoo is also a well-known IT company in the United States, and the boss can only drink Nestle dissolving, Lin Zheng has an urge to cover his face when he listens: Listening to this makes people get drunk~~
"Okay, let's make it a little more efficient," Lin Zheng unceremoniously pulled a chair and sat down, "I can roughly guess Yahoo's current situation and the conditions that those vampire-like venture capital companies have offered you, and they have also approached me, so ...... Well, as an Internet company, I understand that this is an industry that requires a high level of innovation, so we will not interfere with your operation and management of Yahoo, nor will we put forward too harsh conditions, and we can even help each other in addition to capital injection. ”
"Sequoia Capital has also approached you?" David. Ferro was a little surprised at first. But then they were relieved: with the market potential of IcQ expression, it is normal for Sequoia Capital, which has always been known for its keen sense of smell, to come to them.
"Well, but I rejected them, our company is not short of money," Lin Zheng shrugged. "How else would we have the money to invest in you?"
This is also true, the two laughed, and then asked Lin Zheng, "Our cooperation, can you give an example?" ”
"First of all, our two companies can cooperate, and IcQ and our website can help you Yahoo to promote. We can even integrate your Yahoo search box directly into the URL, which I think will help your Yahoo search engine to capture the market; As a search engine, how do you help IcQ promote, I believe you should have more ideas than me, right? ”
"No problem." Yang Zhiyuan and David. Ferro glanced at each other, and there was some joy in their eyes. IcQ, an instant messenger that has swept the entire online world since its launch, is naturally used by both of them, and everyone who has used IcQ admits that this little thing is too convenient, and the guy who does this software is not only a master of software design, but also considers almost perfect in terms of user psychology.
A few days ago indos95 cloth meeting Bill. Gates personally used IcQ to chat with friends to make the whole world instantly know this thing, it is said that the number of IcQ users has now exceeded 2oo, and this number is still increasing. If IcQ can help Yahoo promote it, it would be great for Yahoo.
As for the "123ok" website, when I think of this website, Yang Zhiyuan and David. Fei Luo had the urge to burst into tears: such a non-technical web page can now achieve 3o million daily IP visits, and even the number of Yahoo search engine uses, which is simply crazy! If it weren't for the "123ok" URL Daquan just to provide users with a web page and not provide search services, Yahoo would be able to close its doors, and Lin Zheng promised to integrate the Yahoo search box into the "123ok" URL. That's as many users as the Yahoo search engine in an instant.
"We initially set this cooperation for one year, and after a year we will decide whether and how to cooperate according to the situation, as for the investment, 2oo dollars in exchange for 2o% of Yahoo's shares, and you want to redeem the shares in the future. How about we put no barriers in place? Tan Na said the terms she had agreed with Lin Zheng.
"$2oo million? 2o% of the shares?! Hearing Tan Na's conditions, Yang Zhiyuan and David. Ferro exclaimed at the same time.
They were not surprised because Lin Zheng and Tan Na's hearts were too dark, but they were surprised that the conditions were too generous: in terms of the conditions given by IcQ, in the case of Yang Zhiyuan and David. In Fei Luo's view, the value of IcQ and website promotion alone is almost $1oo dollars, which is equivalent to IcQ's $3oo dollar injection of only 2o% of the shares? Sequoia Capital was able to inject $2oo dollars, but the conditions they offered were ...... It's unbearable to be harsh.
"That's right."
The two glanced at each other, holding back the excitement and excitement in their hearts, Yang Zhiyuan cautiously said to Lin Zheng, "This...... Mr. Lin, Miss Tan, can we allow us to think about it? ”
"Of course, this is as it should be, after all, receiving an injection of external capital is a big deal." Lin Zheng smiled and nodded, not impressed at all, "David, Yang, I'm a little curious about the name of your company, how did you come up with the idea of giving your company such a name?" ”
The name of Yahoo, Lin Zheng has always been curious, why is there such a strange name? It's a pity that no one has answered Lin Zheng, but now it's okay, you can ask the founder of Yahoo in person.
Yang Zhiyuan smiled shyly and said, "We found this name in a travel brochure, and we think yahoo! It represents those inexperienced and uneducated foreign tourists, very similar to our group of computer people, and the name is very close to the sound of "yoo~~hoo~~" in the mouths of the Paleo-Indians when they hunted, so we used 'yahoo! 'Come on as the name of this software. ”
"I see." Lin Zheng nodded.
"Do you think they'll say yes?" Coming out of Yahoo's place where it looked like a warehouse more than an office, Tan Na asked Lin Zheng in a low voice.
"They'll definitely say yes." Compared with Tan Na's worries, Lin Zheng was full of confidence.
――――――――――――――――――――――――
"Mr. Lin, Amex has strict rules for loans, and there is no problem with your credit history, but you have not worked with our Amex Bank before, so ......" Martin, the manager of Amex Bank. Jones looked at Lin Zheng and Tan Na with an embarrassed face, if he didn't know that the other party was a wealthy man with a private jet, he almost planned to let the security guard kick the other party out: Where are you at the Amex Bank?
It's funny to say, don't look at Lin Zheng fooling Yang Zhiyuan one by one, but he doesn't have much money in his hand at all, 2oo US dollars? He can't even take out $5o on him now, but this can't help him, the Microsoft stock in his hand is worth a lot of money, even if the Microsoft stock can't be mortgaged, the export contract of the second-hand car dealership under Lianchuang Technology for 2ooo Ford E-class vans per year can also be exchanged for a lot of money: that's a net profit of tens of millions of dollars a year, and a loan of a few million dollars is not a drizzle?
"Really? What if I thought Microsoft stock was collateral? Lin Zheng looked at the Martin in front of him with a smile. Mr. Jones took out the bag containing Microsoft stock in his briefcase and put it on the table, his heart full of the pleasure of playing tricks.
"Microsoft stock? There is certainly no problem with this. "Martin. Joneston's spirit was shocked: Microsoft stock is a good thing, since indos95, all the people in the financial world have realized that the value of Microsoft stock is higher than that of gold.
He even complained to Lin Zheng in his heart: You have Microsoft stock, you said it earlier! Why is it so troublesome?
Martin. Jones was not stupid enough to ask Lin Zheng why he didn't sell the stock, but chose a bank loan, and the fool also knew that Microsoft's stock would appreciate to a terrifying level, and compared with the appreciation of Microsoft's stock, the bank's interest was nothing at all.
Fly over the authenticity of these Microsoft shares after reviewing Martin. Jones had only one thought in his head,
Martin cautiously said to Lin Zheng, "Mr. Lin, Miss Tan, our Amex company is the world's largest global company in travel services and integrated finance, financial investment and information processing, leading in credit cards, traveler's checks, travel, financial planning and international banking, and the only service company among the 30 companies in the Dow Jones Industrial Index that reflects the U.S. economy. Including personal assistants, legal and financial advisors, travel discounts, leisure life offers, banking and investment services provided by banking service specialists and 24-hour comprehensive support, etc., in terms of customer service, we are the most professional, I wonder if we are fortunate to establish a long-term relationship with the two? ”
Is this ready to pull customers?
"Can we also hand over our private jet to you for hosting?" Lin Zheng thought for a moment and asked.
The Gulfstream II-sp has been sent to the International Jet Company for refit, and during this time, Lin Zheng has been looking for a trustworthy business jet hosting company, and he knows the strength of Amex, if Amex can provide this kind of service, it would not hurt to cooperate with Amex.
"Of course, there is no problem, Amex has cooperation with all airlines in the United States, and we can ensure that your business jet maximizes its value." Martin. Jones said without hesitation, it was a Gulfstream II-sp.
After exchanging glances with Tan Na, Lin Zheng stretched out his hand: "Okay, I wish us a happy cooperation, I believe that Yuntong, which has a history of more than 1oo years, will provide us with the most thoughtful service." ”
