Chapter 19: Stubborn Old Man

Wulin Chinese Network, the fastest update of the latest chapter of the rise of the prosperous world of rebirth!

"This tea drinking is the same as life, always bitter first and then sweet, you try to see if this is the truth." Chen Bowu picked up a small large teacup and took a sip, the long aftertaste of tea stimulated the taste buds at the root of the tongue, which was extremely comfortable.

Looking at Jobs like a cow drinking water, he drank it in one gulp, refilled it with a cup, and smashed his mouth and thought about what Chen Bo said.

"I'm not here to be a lobbyist, I can understand your pursuit of perfection, the hardships you have endured have now turned into sweetness. But what about Lawrence and the three kids? Can you feel the pain of losing your father? They need more care from their fathers as they grow up, and you should do your duty as a man, at least accompany them to grow up. ”

Jobs's lesions are not too serious now, his face is at least round, not so thin, and if he undergoes surgery immediately, he can continue for a few more years.

"Chen, I was abandoned by my biological parents when I was a child, and I can certainly understand the pain. For my body, I know and understand what is going on, even a few cuts on my body still can't change my fate, people will eventually die. Rather than waste that time, why don't I use it to accomplish something greater? ”

"After you're gone, others will sleep with your wife, beat your baby, spend your money, think about it again?!" Chen Bo raised his voice and said urgently.

"Oh, Lawrence has the right to remarry, I'm not worried about the children, you'll take care of them, won't you? Friend! ”

Chen Bo stood up with a thud and yelled at him, "You are too selfish, old man! "TMD, I really want to slap you awake.

The children playing in the room and Lawrence hurriedly ran out when they heard the voice, thinking that they were fighting, Chen Bo saw this situation and hurriedly changed his expression to coax the children back first, this kind of thing is better not to let them know for the time being.

"I don't mind, whatever you say." Jobs spread his hands and smiled, as if to laugh at his thoughts, completely dead pigs who were not afraid of boiling water, and were simply indifferent.

"Well, whatever you like." Chen Bo was so angry that his teeth itched, "When I was in Japan, I went to visit Yamauchi Pu, and his condition was not very good, you, who are less than fifty, are going to leave with an old man in his seventies." ”

"Yamauchi is something I admire, and some of the details used to be inspired by Nintendo. Leaving is the best place for him to be, another beginning. ”

Yo, your uncle, you still think of yourself as a poet! Chen Bo saw that he couldn't persuade him, so he didn't bother to continue talking, so he just drank tea with his head bored and poured a full amount of water.

"I've heard you've been in some trouble lately." Instead, Jobs broke the awkward atmosphere by speaking first.

"Apple hasn't been doing well lately, has it?" Chen Bo said-for-tat, the second-generation iPod has disappointed investors, and Apple's market value has recently shrunk from 10 billion to 7 billion.

"I'm confident, and no one in the current shareholders dares to put pressure on me, you can invest in some Apple shares in advance, and it will definitely double in the future."

I'll go! Even if you rise to 700 billion, it's only 100 times, but compared with the rapid growth of Internet companies, you have to stand in the back.

"Well, I'll surprise you." Chen Bo said ruthlessly, "Apple's advertising fee for this quarter should be settled, and I'll have someone send you a bill tomorrow!" ”

The two of them are arguing like children at this time, no one will let anyone, Safari promotes Ant Search, Apple also advertises through MySpace, and now there is a surplus, Apple's advertising spending is obviously higher.

Apple's advertising budget every quarter is not a small amount, how is it a thigh, he accounts for half of the meagre revenue of the US branch, and the rest is the sporadic benefits brought by advertisers.

Jobs, the stubborn old man, really him off today, Chen Bo simply ignored him, ran to the children's pile to play, and fought a few street fighters with Reed in the world of game consoles. It wasn't until Eve twisted his ears and pulled him aside that she reluctantly dropped the handle to play with her.

"Sorry, I did my best."

At the time of parting, Chen Bo expressed his helplessness to Lawrence.

"I'm mentally prepared for that, he's such a person." She had already anticipated the final result and did not look disappointed.

The matter has come to this point, let him make his own decision, at this time he can only resign himself to fate.

Bidding farewell to the Jobs family, Chen Bo embarked on the road back again, and Gao Yuanyuan talked about some troubles with Eve in the co-pilot position. Although it was a conversation and communication, she was able to play together, and she even wanted to take the children to play at home on the weekend, which seemed to be a woman's maternal love overflowing.

But that's fine, usually he's busy, and he doesn't have so much time to spend with her, so that she won't feel too lonely, just to have a companion. Children all over the world are more or less the same, not too different, so her nervousness before she came was completely unnecessary.

Early the next morning, Chen Bo saw from the TV in his office that Yahoo's president, Semele, announced to everyone that he would buy the Overture search engine, which has a market value of only $650 million, at a premium of $1.75 billion.

It's really TMD crazy! Rich is capricious, the premium is so high, and I am not afraid of flashing my old waist, people are more popular than people! Chen Bo said in his heart.

Looking at his own side again, he finally pulled down $150 million from Suhu.com, and it took a lot of effort. Speed Fox's stock has fallen from a peak of $45 to $32 a share, which is a huge loss. And even stocks with other Chinese concepts have also fluctuated and fallen, which is really a stone to stir up a thousand waves.

If you don't want to fall, you have to save the market, otherwise other shareholders will follow to sell, and you will not have more cash to invest in other projects with the company's funds.

This first Chinese portal is no longer worthy of the name, and the traffic is only slightly stronger than Tengxun.com, and it is gradually a little stronger, and the follow-up is powerless.

Domestic affairs basically have no impact, and now it is the state of Gujing Wubo, but he is always a little uneasy and doesn't know what will go wrong. But now that he can't care about that, it's important to get a good grasp of the affairs of the United States.

"McKinsey's advisory team has arrived!" Liu Qing came over and reminded him at this time.

"Let's go and see what they do." Chen Bo got up and went to the conference room with her.

Founded in 1928, McKinsey & Company has grown into a world-renowned corporate consulting firm that many people know by name, but they don't know what it does. In fact, it is also simple, it is to help employers make strategic decisions, design enterprise management mechanisms, provide marketing plans, and make consultants for corporate mergers and acquisitions. And most of McKinsey's employees have MBAs, almost all of them are elite.

In addition to the core technical team of the original company, he also needs professionals who know more about this side to help him do the analysis, how to operate.

Of course, it is not for them to help you design products, nor is it their expertise, but also for their strategic thinking and planning, as well as participating in mergers and acquisitions negotiations.

"Hello, McKinsey Project Manager Sundar. Pichai. Seeing them walk in, one of the leaders was a dark-skinned young man who stood up and stretched out his hand to introduce himself.

"Indians?" Chen Bo shook his hand, raised his sword eyebrows, and said casually.

"Yes, sir. Is there anything wrong? Sundar didn't feel displeased, and still breathed aura.

"Oh, no. It reminds me of an old Indian friend who works at Apple, and he impressed me very much, especially his accent, which used to afflict me a lot. Chen Bo smiled, "But your English has a very West Coast flavor." ”

"There's always a lot of Indians in Silicon Valley, and they make me feel at home." Sundar is eloquent, and he does not fall behind in emotional intelligence.

Because the official language is English, Indians do have an innate advantage in computer programming, and are the second largest software industry in the world. Especially in the southern Indian city of Bangalore, it is comparable to the presence of Silicon Valley. Even outsiders will call Pengcheng the second in Bangalore, where there are a large number of programmers who do outsourced work.

"I'll be sure to hear from you when I have time to talk about India, but now can we get to work, after all, your fees are much more expensive than advertising on our website!"

McKinsey's fee standard is not negotiable, and the fee of $200 per person per hour is really not cheap, so it's no wonder that Chen Bo joked about it.

"According to our analysis of the operational data of Ant Search and its two project brands, MySpace and Fox live, the performance of market revenue is very average. If we want to solve this problem once and for all, my team suggested acquiring an Internet advertising company, which can not only get the brand resources of the platform but also effectively expand the revenue. ”

Then Sundar took out a document from the file bag and handed it to Chen Bo. "DoubleClick has been repeatedly demonstrated by our team, their dynamic advertising system service platform is currently used more frequently in the Internet industry, and the network advertising planning is also quite professional, established in 1997, in 2000 when the market value reached $134 per share, the current stock price is $4.5, the total share capital is 7 million shares. If the full purchase price is based on a premium of 50%, it will cost 47.25 million US dollars, excluding other fees and consulting fees. ”

Sundar's speed of speech was neither fast nor slow, and Chen Bo noticed that he came to the manuscript completely out of the manuscript casually, which at least shows that his memory is very good.

"The key is that the company currently has a cash flow of close to 10 million yuan, which can reduce the input cost after the acquisition, and there is currently a small private equity fund that is more interested in him, and has not yet entered the substantive contact stage."

Of course, Chen Bo knew about this Internet advertising company that can be called "double-click", and was later taken into the arms of Google at a high price of billions of dollars, defeating strong competitors such as Microsoft, Yahoo, and AOL to come out on top.
