Therefore, as soon as Zhou Shuo said that he would provide 10 billion yuan in deposits for the city commercial bank, she immediately thought of his huge personal assets in the United States.

Even if it is 10 billion yuan, it is only about 1.17 billion US dollars. Microsoft is gaining momentum right now, and no one would choose to abandon its stock at this time.

Then, the only force that Zhou Shuo can mobilize is Netscape's stock.

For more than a year, after many rounds of financing and stock issuance, the proportion of shares in Zhou Shuo's hands has dropped to about 25%. However, the value of these stocks has not decreased due to the decrease in the proportion of shareholdings, but has risen a lot compared to when they were first listed.

Microsoft's IE series of browsers, which are bundled with Windows, are technically completely incomparable to Netscape. What's more, after the technical support of the six-ear browser, the Netscape browser is far behind IE in terms of performance and ease of use.

In addition to avoiding the biggest mistake of Netscape in history - poor support for browser standards, the current Netscape browser also offers many excellent and convenient designs. For example, page pre-reading or download manager functions greatly improve the convenience of users.

But even so, Zhou Shuo still decided to sell his Netscape shares as much as possible. Sell high and buy low, now Netscape has reached its most glorious time, and the next thing I am afraid is that it can only go downhill; belch

After all, the six-ear browser may be able to change the fate of Netscape for a while, but even if it is a temporary tactical success, Netscape is already strategically dead.

First of all, although IE browser has been launched for two generations in succession, it has not improved. But Bill hasn't given up on that effort. Instead of punishing the person in charge of the IE project, he expanded the entire browser project team. IE3's development team. It swelled directly to the size of 500 people.

This shows that Microsoft is not retreating, but is firmly moving towards the set goal.

Let's be honest. In the confrontation between Netscape and Microsoft, Zhou Shuo is definitely not optimistic about Netscape. This is both because history has proven that Microsoft is strong, and because of another reason - Mark Anderson and Jim Clark are not good operators like Bill.

Netscape is so arrogant that for these two people who think they have pioneered the Internet trend, it seems as if the entire Internet industry is eating their meal.

They are dismissive of AOL's good intentions, they are dismissive of Microsoft's competition, and they remain dismissive of technological advances and the designation of standards.

If it weren't for Zhou Shuo's head-on attack, they would even be arrogant. The entire Internet industry is at their mercy. As the saying goes, the nature of the country is easy to change and difficult to change, and Netscape is now booming, but it cannot hide its weak shortcomings in operation and technology.

Based on this judgment, Zhou Shuo felt that at this time, it should be the most glorious stage of Netscape. Selling its stake should be the most opportune time.

The acquirer interested in Zhou Shuo's shares is also ready-made, and AOL, as the largest Internet access provider and content provider in the United States, has a great desire to enter the browser market.

Although Stephen Keyes has no understanding of technology, his market vision is extremely extraordinary. His focus is not on the profit and loss of one or two businesses. Rather, it is necessary to lay out the Internet industry chain. I am very interested in Netscape shares in Zhou Shuo's hands, and even Six Ears Software Company.

Don't underestimate the six-ear software company, Microsoft's windows is bundled with six-ear IM, and it is now the world's most user-used Internet communication software. And the six-ear browser has many original patents. Whether it's Netscape or Microsoft, you have to keep your head down and use it.

No, no, for example, CSS1.0 technology is included in the W3C standard. Netscape and Internet Explorer do not support CSS technology. 80% of personal websites on the Internet look like piles of gibberish. Because nowadays ordinary people want to make zuò websites, even many professionals. All are using the WYSIWYG six-ear editor.

In the blank market of editors, the market share of six-ear editors has even reached 80%. It is not an exaggeration to say that it dominates the world.

The Panhan Research Institute in China has a special project team, and a team of 300 programmers is responsible for the development of the editor. Six Ears Editor 2.0 is ready to develop two versions, one is a normal version similar to the word interface, and the other is a Professional version. Liuer Software's plan was to monopolize the editor market by 1997 with these two new versions.

In this respect, the Americans cannot compete with the Pan Han Group. One is that the Six Ears Editor is not only completely free, but it also provides upload space. Second, without the support of the upstream and downstream industrial chains, even if the project is done, it will not be profitable. It can be said that Pan Han Group has a unique advantage in this regard!

As long as the editor market is in his hands, Zhou Shuo believes that the six-ear browser is already invincible.

What investor would not be interested in such a company? However, under the eyesight of the two major shareholders of Mark Anderson and Bill Gates, AOL's Stephen Keys had no choice but to return. Instead, he chose to acquire Netscape shares in Zhou Shuo's hands.

The sale price of 25% of Netscape's shares, after intensive contact between Pang Zhou and Stephen Case, Stephen Keys directly quoted $2 billion, as well as an offer of 3 million shares of AOL.

To be honest, this price is already very satisfied in Zhou Shuo's heart, but Pang Zhou's opinion is that some more stocks should be picked out. In this regard, Zhou Shuo still chose to trust Pang Zhou's judgment and completely handed over the final decision to him.

Either way, the $2 billion cash purchase price is a piece of news that is sure to make the front page headlines of newspapers like The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal.

Taking out more than 1000 million US dollars from this money, Zhou Shuo only needs to put this money in the foreign currency account of the Bank of China, and then borrow the same amount of RMB from China, then he is a top VIP customer of the Bank of China.

As long as he declares that he will put the 10 billion yuan in the account of the newly established Xiucheng City Commercial Bank, even if he says that he will hand over the position of president of the City Commercial Bank to He Youyou, no one will say a word.

It is true that the reform of credit cooperatives into city commercial banks was prepared by the municipal government. In this, the shares of the city government must account for 30%, which no city will and dare not give up.

However, in the end, whether this restructuring was successful, that is, whether the city commercial bank could be established, was not decided by the city government behind closed doors.

In China, the central bank, the People's Bank of China, has the greatest say in whether it can be established. However, in the case of Xiucheng City Commercial Bank, it must obtain the consent of the Bohai Provincial Government and the Bohai Branch of the People's Bank of China.

For the sake of 10 billion yuan and 1.17 billion US dollars, Zhou Shuo didn't think that Ma Boyan or anyone's official hat could be worth so much money. As long as the sale of Netscape shares can be completed, the money will immediately go to the account of Bank of China.

As long as the money arrives, Zhou Shuo believes that this city commercial bank is in the pocket of Panhan Group.

Ma Boyan? It's just a clown.

Zhou Shuo nodded at Zhou Jiajia's surprised gaze and said with a smile: "We are in contact with AOL, and we can reach a deal of more than $2 billion this month." At that time, more than half of the funds will flow back to China, so you don't have to worry about Pan Han Group not being able to come up with this money. ”

Zhou Jiajia swallowed her saliva and nodded with difficulty. She can not care about the work of the preparatory committee of a city commercial bank, and she can even refuse the position of president of Xiucheng City Commercial Bank. But for the position of president of a city commercial bank with tens of billions of deposits, she can't say no words of refusal anyway.

"Comrade Zhou Jiajia, although it was Mr. Zhou who proposed you to be the president, the leaders of the city also considered it carefully." He Xi turned around at this time, looked at her and said: "We are not hasty, because of your relationship with Mr. Zhou of Fulin Group, we decided to recommend you to be the president, but in the next restructuring and merger of Xiucheng state-owned enterprises, we really need a talent like you!" This is the trust of the organization in you, and it is also the hope of the three million people of Xiucheng for you! ”

"Mayor He's saying is too heavy, since the credit union has been transformed into a commercial bank, its biggest task is to make a profit." Zhou Shuo stretched out his hand to stop He Xi's impassionedness, and said to Zhou Jiajia seriously: "Jiajia, you don't have to have any pressure, I believe that your ability is capable of being qualified for the position of president, which is the only reason why Mr. Zhou and I recommend you." To say yes or not to agree, you can decide for yourself. ”

"This president, I did it!"

Under Zhou Shuo's gaze, Zhou Jiajia almost did not hesitate at all, and happily agreed. Her eyes were bright, and she pursed her lips and nodded vigorously.

Zhou Shuo and He Xi glanced at each other, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

Ten billion, no matter how rich Zhou Shuo is, such a huge sum of money cannot be lightly entrusted to the moths of the original credit union. Not to mention their business ability, that is, their character, Zhou Shuo can't trust them. And Zhou Jiajia is an excellent choice, her uncle Zhou Xinxin is the owner of Fulin Group, and his worth can be said to be the second in the embroidery city.

Since Zhou Xinxin is willing to do this insurance, Zhou Shuo dares to believe him. Pushing Zhou Jiajia to power requires ability, credibility and credibility, and it can also greatly narrow the relationship between Fanhan Group and Fulin Group.

This deal can be said to be absolutely impossible to lose! (To be continued......)
