"If you don't feel distressed, sell it. If you want to talk about cars, there are really few people who are more familiar than me, and this project is also very good! Mo Fei took a sip of beer and said indifferently.

The future of Sky.com is a foregone conclusion, and he says that no matter how much he says, there seems to be nothing wrong with Chen Bo's decision.

The Internet is a market that burns money, and if you don't sell Sky.com, you have to go to financing. Although it seems to borrow chickens to lay eggs, but you also have to pay your own interests, since there is a better way now, then why go to another way?

Zhang Yiming felt even more indifferent, although he wrote the framework of Sky.com, he was confident that he could write more awesome code, and there was no longer his shares there, so it could be said that there was no half-cent relationship, just a false name of a co-founder.

Chen Bo saw that the two of them had no objections, so he put his mind at ease. From a small website to a group company, the pace is usually too fast, and I even forgot these old brothers who have struggled together, so I can't help but feel ashamed, so I drank a few more glasses.

Just when Chen Bo was secretly operating the merger and acquisition of Sky.com, FM365, an elephant with assets of 200 million US dollars, finally couldn't support it.

On August 11, Lenovo FM365 officially announced its layoff plan, but the reason was not explained in the media.

This must not be hidden from Chen Bo, after all, he has done internal research, and it seems that the strong alliance between China and the United States has already buried hidden dangers.

Not only is there a conflict between the traditional industry model and the emerging Internet model, but also the contradiction between the cultures of the East and the West, and even the wrestling between the two shareholders in the management, then the failure of FM365 is doomed to a tragic end.

If Chen Bo was willing to take over, he might not be able to reverse Yang Yuanqing and Liu Chuanzhi's way of thinking, after all, in front of them, it is difficult for you to get the control you deserve.

Of course, Chen Bo is not idle now, aren't you going to lay off employees? Then I will take it all in, and the ability of those employees is not low, the fault is in the management model.

Immediately let Wang Xiaochuan release the news in the name of Ant Company, opening his arms to all unemployed FM365 employees.

With more than 200 employees, can Ant Company really eat it? What do you want to do with so many employees?

Just when everyone was speculating, Zeng Liqing led the team to Yanjing quietly, and since Tengxun is now going to be a portal, he needs to make efforts in the news business. The best thing FM365 has done is the special news section, and Tencent can take advantage of this opportunity to enter the northern market.

Ant search is just a front, and although it also needs people, it doesn't use that much.

In order not to attract the attention of Xilang and Suhu in a short time, he used this trick to darken Chen Cang, so that they would not also jump out to grab food.

After all, the attractiveness of listed companies is still quite attractive in this era.

On August 15, Ant's Hong Kong server was set up, and the traditional Chinese search engine for Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and Southeast Asia was officially launched.

Li Ziqiang directly took a photo of a rooftop LED screen advertising space in the prime location of Victoria Harbour, which is the best display position for the attention of major manufacturers around the world, and nearly 45 million tourists come here every year, and film and television works involving Hong Kong Island cannot avoid the beautiful night scene here.

Victoria Harbour is also the best place to place after Times Square in the United States, so there is no shortage of brands such as Samsung, EPSON, Olympus, Panasonic, and LG.

Although neither market capitalization nor influence can compete with these companies, the speed of network development is enough for Ant Search to stand on this stage. When it comes to spending money, there is no industry that can be built better than the Internet, right?

If it weren't for the inconvenience of mainland enterprises on Taiwan Island, Chen Bodu would have planned to go to the 101 TV Tower to place advertisements for Ant Search, and he would not have allowed Taiwan businessmen to take advantage of any bargains.

Although it is inconvenient to open a branch in Taiwan, it is impossible to isolate the Internet from entering the Taiwan market, and Chen Bo is now planning to operate the interests of Ant Search's parent company through an offshore company and set up a Hong Kong branch, so that he can manage the Chinese market in Southeast Asia and reasonably avoid unnecessary risks.

With the two text search interfaces in simplified and traditional Chinese, this has basically covered most of the Chinese areas, as for other markets, Ant Search is not suitable for rash entry, and there is not so much financial strength and talent reserves.

Now that it can consolidate the Chinese country, it is already good, and these three search engines are already about to see the bayonet.

I really don't know what it will be like to wait for more search engines to join in!

When Zhang Fan of Defengjie visited again, he also brought Zhang Pinghe, the president of Yahoo Huaxia, which was their first official meeting, but there were many exchanges between them openly and secretly, and they would not be friends in the future.

Even if ants can't search for it, there will be Baidu, and even if there is no Baidu, there will be Sogou.

Even if none of this happens, and the ambitious Google company can't get along with them in the U.S. market, Larry Page repeatedly wants Yahoo to buy it, but it is rejected by a mere million-dollar offer.

As the saying goes, 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, after only three years, Yahoo will turn around and beg Larry Page to sell the company.

Judging from the news from the BP fund, at the second meeting, Page unilaterally raised the offer to $2 billion! But Yahoo, which was imminent, still agreed.

The show has just begun, if you don't have your own core technology, you are waiting to be played, just by virtue of the platform advantage, as long as you don't create a closed-loop ecosystem, you will have to finish sooner or later.

But there is no need for Chen Bo to think about it, what he has to do now is to partner with Zhang Fan to push up the price of Sky.com.

As for ant search, although Yahoo has been temporarily suppressed, they still can't look down on this small insect, which is a common problem of multinational groups, and it is normal.

But Sky.com's high-quality wireless business resources, they are still more optimistic, this ant, Baidu out, Yahoo directly rushed to fight.

If it weren't for the fact that De Fengjie took the initiative to find him, and instructions came from the American headquarters. He really didn't have the time to go to a competitor's office, even if it was to buy a company that he also coveted.

"I don't like to talk nonsense, $85 million to acquire Sky.com, which is also the price of the US headquarters after many evaluations. If you can, we'll continue talking, if not, forget it! ”

As soon as Zhang Pinghe sat down, he directly threw down this sentence.

Chen Bo and Defengjie's Zhang Fan looked at each other, what rhythm is this Nima? Although we all know that Yahoo has a lot of money, we haven't seen such a negotiation! Just stun with money?

$85 million, what's the concept? is close to 700 million yuan, and the valuation in his heart is only 500 million at most, which is really the master who has met people stupidly and has a lot of money, and it suddenly exceeded the bottom line of 200 million.

Zhang Fan's expression came into view, this has not yet reached the bottom line of the other party, and Zhang Ping and the so-called fixed price still have room to rise.

With this infernal affairs, what is Chen Bo hesitating about, it is rare to encounter a fat sheep and not slaughter it ruthlessly?

"TOM Group has been communicating with me for more than a month, and the price has reached 1 billion yuan, and Skynet is a loyal partner of Huaxia Mobile. In the future, the sharing ratio will continue to be adjusted, and it is expected to exceed 300 million profits this year, 500 million next year, and 1.5 billion the year after tomorrow! Moreover, CITIC Securities has been in contact with us to prepare for the issue of landing on the Hong Kong Stock Growth Enterprise Market. ”

Chen Bo bragged about it, without mercy, and simply caught up with the release of satellites and the Great Leap. I entered the times.

When it's true or fake, it's true when it's false, and when it's true, it's just a fool, it's up to you whether you believe it or not, it's just a signal, it's not that I don't want to sell, it's that your offer is not enough.

Zhang Fan is in the center and thin mud, very dedicated to do double-faced, Zhang Pinghe's complexion is not different, it seems that 85 million is really just a tentative offer, this is really not wronged.

The purchase price has also risen all the way from 85 million to 90 million, 95 million, and then to 98 million US dollars. If it breaks 100 million US dollars, it is not hopeless, it is nothing more than more than 10 million US dollars more than the original price, which is simply a sprinkling of water for Yahoo.

"Mr. Zhang, a company as big as Yahoo is not bad for this $2 million, right? My requirements are not high, 1 billion yuan is enough, see how sincere you are. 100 million and 1 dollars, how? Ask for a good lottery, pick one out of 100 million! ”

Zhang Fan followed suit, Zhang Pinghe saw that the other party's requirements were not high, and waved his big hand, yes!

Chen Bo was ecstatic in his heart, the feeling of slaughtering a fat sheep was cool, if there was such a good thing every day, then he would bother to build an Internet company.

Other problems are better solved, Sky.com employees freely choose to stay, and those who are willing to go to Yahoo in Shanghai will have their salaries increased by 30% and will be given a settling-in allowance.

If you choose to leave, you will also be given a six-month basic salary compensation, of course, if you stay in the Pangu Group, then Yahoo will definitely not care.

As for some other details, it's even easier, anyway, Sky.com has no financial disputes and debts, it's very simple. The two shareholders of Lenovo and SoftBank Huaxia have a combined stake of only 10%, and Chen Bo has already informed the other party, and the negotiations began only after obtaining authorization.

Although I don't know how much they spent from IDG to get it, 10% is worth tens of millions of dollars now, which is already three times more than the $3 million invested by Xiong Xiaoge last year.

It took half a day for the two parties to reach an agreement and sign the agreement, and the rest must be assigned by the other party to a third-party accounting firm to audit the net assets of Sky.com, and the statement can only be officially effective after there is no problem.

The deal was already a foregone conclusion, and Yahoo couldn't wait to announce it that night, hoping to attract some attention.

It doesn't matter what 8848 or FM365 is, it's all frustrated losers, so don't get in the way and make headlines.

Chen Bo had to write an internal email overnight to inform the whole group of the incident, and called several key old employees to calm down.

It's just that Yahoo is too fast, and he hasn't prepared for it yet, otherwise it will make the old employees feel cold, and who will want to follow you in the future.
