Chapter 90: Close Encounter

"Vincent?" Just as Julio was talking to him, a dark shadow came next to him.

"Sundar!" Chen Bo was surprised that the McKinsey project manager who provided consulting services for Ant Search's acquisition in the first half of the year had a bad impression.

"Sure enough, it's you, I just watched it for a long time." Sundar was pleasantly surprised, "I didn't expect you to be Penn too!" ”

"Of course." Chen Bo was afraid that he would talk too much, so he pulled him to the side, "I'm studying EMBA at Wharton now, and theoretically we should be alumni." ”

"Oh, oh! I came from India and got my degree from Stanford University and then my MBA at Wharton. In that case, you should call me a senior. Sundar joked on the spot that there were hardly many Indians on his body except for his skin color, and his accent was also American, which made Chen Bo feel a little more good about him.

"Still working at McKinsey?"

"Yes, this job has taught me a lot of things, although I am basically on the road on a business trip, but it is still quite fulfilling."

"Ever thought about coming to the ants so that you can spend more time with your family. You know, I'm not a stingy boss! Chen Bo has a heart to recruit, his own ability is good, and now he is still an alumnus, which is one step closer.

"Sounds good, I'll think about it." Sundar said solemnly, "Don't just talk about us here, introduce an alumnus to you, who is also your direct competitor?" ”

“google?”

"No, it's Yahoo."

Sundar led him to the crowd to find a man in his mid-thirties who was listening intently to the speech, with a short brown beard piled on his chin and meticulously groomed. It's a bit like Bradley Cooper, the star of "The Hangover", but the pupils are much darker than his.

Jeff Weiner, the former vice president of networking at Time Warner, now leads Yahoo's search and content business. Sundar introduced Chen Bo, "He is our old senior. ”

"Hello Vincent, I didn't expect you to graduate here too." The two companies are in the same small town, which is no different from neighbors across the wall, if Weiner doesn't know Chen Bo again, it will be in vain, although Yahoo's share has been eaten up by ants, but whether it is the past relationship or the current dispute, the two actually do not have any old grudges.

"Well, I didn't expect that either." Chen Bo touched the tip of his nose, who knew that he could meet his peers here.

"Why don't you find a place to have a drink? Anyway, the speeches of those bigwigs have little to do with us, they are all clichés. Sandal proposed, and the other two agreed, and there was a small bar in the stadium, so they went in a group.

Although it is a peer, it does not mean that they will not get along with each other, and it is normal to exchange experiences, and there is no fuss. Chen Bo's age must be the youngest, these two are seniors, and the common language is no problem, sitting together to brag and paddle is also quite interesting.

Through some mutual testing and understanding, Chen Bo also noticed some inconspicuous things, such as Sundar, who is well-read and memorable, and it is easy for people to ignore his sense of existence, but he is an indispensable lubricant.

Weiner followed Time Warner President Semel to Yahoo and belonged to the lineage. This will do more harm than good to business management, because Yahoo itself has a mature business model, unlike Ant or a start-up in the high-speed development stage, and it doesn't really matter how many people are crammed in.

Yahoo has a big business and a large company, which makes it extremely easy to fall into the struggle of internal friction, coupled with strong investors. Thinking of Yang Zhiyuan's powerlessness in front of him, it is not difficult to analyze that it is difficult for Yahoo to exert his due strength.

Semel is actually the old routine, cultivating Yahoo as a media company like Time Warner, and the core advantages of technology are extremely weak in front of Ant and Google, and it is not known whether the acquired Overture has been digested or not.

Jeff Weiner is not to blame for his lack of heart for the search business. But there are indeed many unique insights on content construction, this aspect is the weakness of ants, after all, it is not a professional portal, even if there is LinkedIn and Rotten Tomatoes, it is only positioned in the vertical segment, and the news pushed by the official website of foxmail is mostly reprinted, lacking originality.

The portal is maturing day by day, and it is difficult to catch up, and there is no need to catch up, Yahoo will eventually be dragged down by it.

Weiner is a humorous American, Sundar is an alternative Indian, and Chen Bo, a not-so-oriental Chinese, is actively integrating into this diverse society, and although he has different cultural backgrounds, he can communicate well and have a good conversation.

It is impossible for the three of them to sit here for a long time, after all, there are still school celebration activities, and it is not too late to save up a game and talk about it another day.

There are more and more people in the stadium, and it seems that it has reached a climax, and the gang of bigwig alumni in the front row generously donated money to support education, and there is no less than 5 million US dollars, wealth is just a number for them.

Chen Bo hadn't seen Ivan Ka today, and he finally saw it when he looked around, but he also found an obscene figure.

"The Golden Lion King? Depend on! Isn't that the middle-aged man who appeared in the Times Square ad, and he put his hand on Ivanka's weak waist.

Dare to openly play hooligans, then what is it! A man's head and a woman's waist, can you touch it casually?

Chen Bo walked a few steps quickly, flickered and squeezed through the crowd, came behind the two, and dragged the salty pig hand directly behind his backhand. The lewd man's arm hurt and screamed, the scene was noisy and didn't attract too many people's attention, but Ivanka was definitely alarmed.

"I won't allow you to be rude to my classmates!" Chen Bo scolded rhetorically, still thinking in his heart that it was better for a hero to save the United States.

"Stop, he's my father, Donald Trump!" Ivanka exclaimed.

"Nani?" Oolong? Chen Bo was shocked, and let go of the movements in his hand, "The Golden Retriever Lion King is your father?" ”

"That's a lot of strength, young man!" Trump shook his red palm, his face was full of anger, "I know you're dating Ivanka!" ”

"Forehead ......" was a chivalrous hero who was still shining just now, but now he has run out of words.

"If I weren't her father, Ivanka would have wanted to kiss Fangze, Ivanka is so spicy...... I'm optimistic about you, Chinese boy! Trump suddenly changed his tone, with a smile on his face, and his fingers Chen Bo blinked. The Golden Lion King? This nickname is so cool, I love it! ”

Chen Bo has been completely petrified on the spot, this man who is not doing justice is actually Ivanka's father? The owner of the Trump Building? New York's real estate tycoon?

"You young people play, stay safe." Trump turned around and pulled a slightly younger man again, "Donald, we should give them a little space!" ”

hat? What is this? Chen Bo looked at Ivanka with a blushing face with a bewildered expression, it was really strange to have such a father.

"Well, as you can see, this squinted golden retriever lion king is indeed my father." Ivanka explained, "That's my brother, Donald Jr., and they're all from the Wharton Alumni Association. ”

"Don't tell me your brother and sister are studying at Wharton." Chen Bo was helpless.

"Eric is in Georgetown, and Tiffany is 10 years old." Ivan Ka is real, the family members have vomited clean, and they can really give birth.

"With his character, maybe he can give your whole brother out in two years." Chen Bo pursed his lips and said embarrassedly, "I just realized how stupid I am now, giving your father a nickname in front of you, and even commenting on the taste of the Trump Building...... That restaurant can't be yours too, right? ”

"Of course not, it's all because I didn't say my last name, I thought you'd know......" Ivanka whispered, as if thinking of something else, and changed the subject, "By the way, Dasha said that her father will be in London next week, and if you have time, it's best to come over." ”

"You help me tell her, I'll go." Even if Chen Bodang agrees, although the former Soviet Union is divided and the economy is in shambles, there are many baby bumps, such as satellites floating in outer space.

Although Lao Maozi's satellites often crash, they are better than nothing, and they are also a big country. Satellite photos that can't be obtained from elsewhere, presumably Lao Maozi will not be stingy. After all, their space agency is already too poor to open the pot, and many talents have already been poached by several major countries behind their backs.

Chen Bo wants to use this oligarch to draw a line, and by the way, it is best to be able to open the Russian search market, if not, it doesn't matter, but this satellite is bound to win.

It may cost more here than buying data from other companies, but Chen Bo doesn't want to be controlled by others, so he tries to choose a unique shortcut, which is also to avoid product homogeneity and no characteristics.

"There's a question, I want to ......," Ivanka said again.

"Say, hesitate what."

"About Wendy."

"She's asking you to be a lobbyist again, right?" Chen Bo said with a smile, I knew that this girl would definitely use every opportunity to achieve her goal, and if she talked for more than a month without any progress, could she not be in a hurry? praised a bunch of Haikou in the media, even if it was lively news, the audience was tired of watching it.

"Hmm." Ivanka nodded embarrassedly, except for being classmates, the two of them have always been in a state of separation. But Wendy Deng always plucked her to be a lobbyist. It's also a multi-billion dollar business, and based on the environment in which she grew up and the education she received, she doesn't have that much face, so she hesitates.

"How many did she come up with?"

"Uh...... That one...... It seems to be $1.7 billion. Ivan Ka said nervously, after all, there was a billion difference between his offer, which was a billion US dollars, not Vietnamese dong, nor a 1 billion Zimbabwean dollar with a face value that could not even be bought for a piece of bread.

1.7 billion? has exceeded psychological expectations, and it has risen by 500 million US dollars in a month, and it can be seen how eager this girl is, which shows that it is not the bottom line, at least it is no problem to cut it again.

"Now that you've spoken, she's your friend again." Chen Bo acted as a question, "Then 1.99 billion US dollars, if you agree, sign the contract immediately, so that you won't be embarrassed, right?" ”

"Really? Thank you so much! Ivan Ka grabbed Chen Bo's hand and shook it, she lost $710 million in one sentence, and now she can finally give her best friend a deal, and this face is also up to the sky.

"Of course, I never lie." Chen Bo didn't feel sorry when he spoke, and when there were many lies, they became the truth, "I don't know how you want to thank me?" ”

"Uh...... Well...... This ......" Ivanka thought about it for a while, her face turned crimson, and after plucking up her courage, her lips pursed slightly, and she probed forward and imprinted it on Chen Bo's face, and had the most direct intimate contact in public.
