Yes.

It has gone from a buyout to a collaboration.

Xiao Qi naturally wouldn't say to them, micro. Bo itself only accounts for 20% of the shares, and the major shareholder is still his own fairy wife.

Since the fairy wife has pushed the matter on him, it is naturally up to him to deal with it.

After thinking about it, Xiao Qi said loudly: "Mr. Cowell, you are buyers, what are your plans, you might as well come and listen to me." If the conditions are right, you can talk about it. ”

That's the benefit of being strong.

In the negotiations, there is no doubt that whoever speaks first will fall into a certain degree of disadvantage, but Xiao Qi has the capital to ask Cowell to do so, and he is also qualified to do so by virtue of his feat of casually cashing out $40 billion in cash.

Before the signal came, Cowell had already considered this situation, and he didn't feel embarrassed when he saw that Xiao Qi really didn't eat his compliments and directly let himself show his chips.

"That's right." Cowell said eloquently, "We've heard it before. Bo sold the right to use the mainland in China to the four major portals. But it seems that for Baodao, Hong Kong, Macau and other Chinese countries in Southeast Asia, there are no copyrights. So we feel that YAHOO and micro. Bo company has joined forces, and it will definitely be possible to make micro. Bo is a better platform. ”

Xiao Qi nodded and motioned for him to continue.

Cowell said with his head in the jaw: "Preliminary we have two jihua, the first is micro. Bo company with jishu as a stake, we together to build a greater China micro. Bo platform, mainly the Chinese traditional Chinese version, this platform will include Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, the Philippines, Indonesia and other areas with a large number of Chinese, do a separate operation. The second is that if the fairy company finds it troublesome, then it can also consider the same way as the mainland, and sell it to us exclusively at a price once every three years. ”

Speaking of which. Cowell stopped, but Xiao Qi waved his hand, still motioning for him to continue.

This kind of silent opponent is the most difficult to deal with, because he does not express his opinion at all, but just constantly listens to your hole cards, which can easily cause asymmetry.

But still the same sentence. Cowell has no way at all, Xiao Qi has an absolute advantage, and it is not okay if he doesn't comply.

He himself was pondering that the reason why the chairman was reluctant to come over and talk in person was probably because he didn't want to be led by Xiao Qi.

After a pause, he finally said a price: "For the first type of shares, YAHOO is willing to give 20% of the shares of the new company, and guarantees that if it goes public, micro. If the company intends to sell this part of the shares. YAHOO PROMISED TO BUY BACK AT A PRICE OF NO LESS THAN $1 BILLION. In the second type of buyout, we are ready to give 50 million US dollars a year, and it will not use your personnel, equipment and bandwidth, etc., but the term cannot be less than 5 years. ”

"The first option is okay, and the second option is no problem for five years, but I want to get $100 million a year to use it." Xiao Qi replied lightly.

The financial crisis is coming soon, and YAHOO will also usher in a new winter.

in the coming years. Their market capitalization will plummet by more than 80%, reaching a low of only about $12.7 billion. In such a miserable operating environment, where does the anxious YAHOO have the heart to go public with this joint venture?

What's more, the CEO of the strong woman who will take YAHOO out of the quagmire in the future is best at selling property.

It's possible that the joint venture company will be sold by her at a low price, and what is the use of 20% of the shares of a dismal company?

However, the second method of cooperation is good, and it can also take advantage of their difficulties. Direct recovery of micro-that has been operating very well-established. Bo Market.

"$100 million?" Cowell opened his mouth exaggeratedly: "Mr. Xiao, I haven't heard of it, have I?" The price you give to the four major portals is only 200 million per company a year! ”

"Do you know that there are four companies, and the sum is more than 100 million US dollars? You've earned it. Xiao Qi said earnestly.

Cowell couldn't help but laugh, "But." In the entire Greater China market, the audience of Chinese traditional Chinese is only about 200 million at most. Compared with China's population of about 1.5 billion, don't you think our $50 million is already very sincere? ”

"Don't just talk about the population, Mr. Cowell." Xiao Qi looked at him, "Why don't you talk about income and education?" People from Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan, and Singapore, 40-60 years old, not only have a high level of education, but also have the ability to accept new things far beyond those in China. Bo's! That's about the same number! ”

Cowell was speechless.

That's true.

For example, in Hong Kong, 50-year-old middle-aged people will also be interested in playing micro. Bo, but most of the 50-year-old middle-aged people in Huaguo don't even know what the Internet is, how to use it?

Moreover, the income level of the two regions is indeed different, and in the case of the same number of users, there is no doubt that the so-called Greater China region will definitely win.

In fact, Yang Zhiyuan and his team also took this into account, and the price they set was not more than 80 million US dollars, but they didn't expect Xiao Qi to dare to ask for 100 million, did he really think that everyone was like him, and the money was as much as the wind blowing?

"Mr. Xiao, your price is really beyond our imagination." Cowell was embarrassed and said, "According to our calculations, micro. . . Bo Company will lose money after a year of selling the right to use the land in China. In order to cultivate the market, you would rather lose money for three years. We don't use your resources, we just give you royalties for nothing, why are we being asked for a high price? ”

When Europeans and Americans speak, sometimes they are too straightforward and simple.

He now asks by name, do you treat customers differently? Am I a fool?

Like Cowell's questioning, if you change to a Chinese, you will never say this, at most you will bargain directly, but regrettably say that you will cooperate next time.

Because business is not in people's favors, this time it is not possible to say that there will be a chance next time, but if you offend the person who talks about business, then it is very likely that there will be no second time.

Cowell, who has lived in Japan for seven or eight years, is not a stupid person, but he understands that in the face of a strong figure like Xiao Qi, it is useless to blindly back down, and only by putting forward his own demands directly can he have a little chance of success.

As for the problem of offending Xiao Qi, he is not afraid, anyway, if it really comes to a very serious point, there will be Yang Zhiyuan personally coming to daoqian afterwards. (To be continued......)
