169th Make Cake and Share Cake

The 169th makes cakes and divides cakes

A ten-year contract with a base salary of $12 million, a monthly strategic bonus of $120 million, and a minimum of $1 billion in stock appreciation.

In the spring and autumn period, the United States developed steadily for 10 years, and Clinton was rewarded with $1.132 billion.

Clinton was moved.

I can't help but be moved, since Clinton left office, how much money did he make by flying around the world and giving speeches desperately.

From 2001 to 2006, after five years of travel, Clinton's public normal income was only $87.3 million; The wealth under other names is more, but it is far less than $1.132 billion. No one in a capitalist country is short of money, and if they can get $1.132 billion, why not?

Of course, Clinton also knows that money is not easy to make.

The more capitalist the money, the harder it is to get.

Stupid people may be able to buy lottery tickets and gamble by chance to get hundreds of millions of dollars, but such a way to get rich obviously has its ceiling. can keep the family business and become bigger and stronger to the scale of tens of billions of dollars, even if he was a nouveau riche who didn't understand bullshit at the beginning, he will make up for all kinds of fatal flaws in his growth. Regardless of whether the nationality of the capital is the United States or China, it is certainly not easy for a capitalist who can start from scratch to lead a company with a market value of 10 billion US dollars.

For hundreds of thousands of dollars in speech attendance expenses, Clinton once insisted on being unwell to catch a flight; From hundreds of thousands of dollars to billions of dollars, Clinton must do more.

Clinton cautiously inquired about the details of the contract: "The catastrophic difficulties of non-market factors, ...... specifically?" ”

Wei Dongsheng: "Administrative factors, market obstacles, etc. Spring and Autumn Search is Spring and Autumn Search, and Spring and Autumn America is the United States, and the two have technical and financial communication, and operation and sales are independent of each other. For example, the United States is said to have begun an electronic information surveillance program in 2004. My bottom line is very simple, the Spring and Autumn United States is in the United States, and I am willing to cooperate with the US government's monitoring and investigation of North American users; However, since the headquarters of Spring and Autumn Search is in China, the United States is not allowed to extort the data of Chinese users from Spring and Autumn Search. ”

Clinton: "If that's all there is to it, there is hope." ”

Wei Dongsheng continued to paint the pie: "In the Spring and Autumn Period, the United States thinks from the standpoint of human beings, and I don't want it to participate in the great power game. You have served two terms as president of the United States, and you are familiar with the operation of the American system, so you should know what the United States can do in the Spring and Autumn Period and what the United States must not touch. The huge amount of money to hire you as a consultant for the Spring and Autumn Search is to let you draw a line for the Spring and Autumn United States, how to ensure profits without touching the political taboo of the United States. Of course, I will also hire a corresponding political advisory group in China, so that they can draw another line for the Spring and Autumn United States, how to ensure profits without touching China's political taboos. I think you should be able to carry such a burden. ”

Clinton smiled lightly and said, "Your request is very simple. ”

Wei Dongsheng: "I also want it to be simple. ”

Clinton: "I took this contract a little bit of a weak heart, I paid so little, but I was paid so much. In other words, Mr. Wei Dongsheng, are you really not considering coming to the United States for development? Compared with your country's political and economic system, the United States is the paradise of capital. In the United States, capital comes first, politics comes second, and when I sit in the presidential chair, I need to consider the opinions of capital, and I have to pay more attention to the opinions of capital when I leave the presidential chair. Eleven billions, and you can buy my friendship and loyalty; And the one who retreats from your country will certainly not serve you faithfully for the sake of 1.1 billion dollars. As a successful business leader, Mr. Wei Dongsheng, would you really not consider immigrating to the United States? If you immigrate to the U.S., I'm sure you're not worried about it at all. ”

Wei Dongsheng: "The United States already has Google. ”

Clinton continued to stand on the standpoint of US interests to persuade Wei Dongsheng to emigrate: "Google's founder Brin (Sergey_Brin) is from Russia, Yahoo's founder Yang Zhiyuan is from China's Wanwan Island, and PayPal's founder Thiel (Peter_Thiel) is from Ukraine. Your talent is obvious to all. If you are willing to immigrate to the United States, if you are willing to focus on the United States, the market value of Spring and Autumn can at least triple, and it is not impossible to beat Google with image search as an opportunity. ”

Wei Dongsheng confidently showed his ability: "Before Spring and Autumn Search entered the United States, Google ranked first in the American market, with a share of only 49.6%; Yahoo ranked second with a share of 23.9%; Microsoft's MSN and indos_Live services, ranked third; Ask ranked fourth and AOL fifth. Google hasn't completely monopolized the U.S. market, and if I put all my energy into the search engine business, Spring and Autumn Search definitely has a chance to beat Google. ”

Speaking of this, Wei Dongsheng shook his head suddenly: "However, I started in the Internet industry, but I don't want to be limited to the Internet industry. ”

Clinton still didn't give up: "What about Wang An?" The United States is not only a fertile ground for the Internet, but also the home of transistors. If you don't want to limit yourself to the Internet and move Zhiyu to the United States, it is entirely possible to repeat the glory of Wang An's company in the 80s of the last century. ”

Wei Dongsheng concealed his true thoughts and perfunctory Clinton with the excuse of capital: "If it were 1976, I might have immigrated to the United States decisively." However, it has been 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, and now it is 2006. When American capital piled up and ran to China, you asked me to buck the trend and return to the United States? No kidding, this was the rhythm of the defection to Germany in 1944. Why is the market value of Internet companies so much higher than their real profits? Because of the prospects. Internet companies represent the future, and if you bet right, you can get rich overnight and increase your value by 10,000 times. ”

"The United States, as brilliant as it is, has been slow to grow; Although China is poor and weak, it has wonderful prospects. ”

"Looking at the GDP rankings of the world's GDP in recent years, from 2001 to 2004, China lagged behind Italy due to exchange rate factors; In 2005, China's GDP data overtook France and Italy, ranking fourth in the world; Summing up the performance of the first three quarters, China's economy in 2006 is still very optimistic, and it will definitely firmly sit in the fourth place in the world and further narrow the gap with Germany. Considering the terrifying growth rate of China's economy, which is often 9% or 10%, it is possible to surpass Germany in 2007 and become the world's third largest economy. ”

Speaking of this, Wei Dongsheng praised Clinton again: "As I said last year, if the presidents of the United States were all elites like you, they might have come to the United States to develop a few years ago." ”

Wei Dongsheng added: "Maybe you understand, maybe you don't understand, the Chinese people have very complicated feelings for you. Looking back at the China policy during your presidency of the United States: in 1993, he first opposed China's bid to host the Olympic Games on the grounds of human rights, and then slapped his face with the Galaxy incident; In 1994, China adjusted its policy toward the Gulf and instigated the Gulf and Strait crisis. As soon as the crisis in the Gulf and the Sea eased, the incident of the embassy of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia came again; In 2001, after his resignation, another plane collision incident broke out in the South China Sea. ”

"China is embarrassed to deal with your policy of engagement and containment, high inflation from 1993 to 1996, deflation from 1997 to 2000, the countryside is going to decline and bankruptcy, and the cities are facing a wave of layoffs. At the turn of the century, China was on the verge of collapse because of your containment policy. If his successor Bush had the same level of strategic vision and execution ability, there is a high probability that China would continue to struggle in the quagmire, even if it does not collapse. ”

"However, the American system has made America brilliant and limited its glory; The American system has made you and limited you. See, after Bush took office, the international situation seemed to have turned cloudy and clear, and China quickly drove onto the fast track of high-speed economic development, surpassing the old powers of Britain, France, Germany, and Italy in just six years and rushing to the world's third largest economy. ”

"Whether friend or foe, human beings are accustomed to worship the strong. Bush is a real old friend of China, but he was ridiculed by the Chinese people for his low IQ because of the failure of the containment policy; You have suppressed the desire of the Chinese country to die, and the Chinese people worship your talents. From the standpoint of the state, they are unequivocally opposed to your containment policy; Focusing on personal charm, they admire a strong enemy like you. ”

Clinton wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Wei Dongsheng: "As the old saying goes, children debate who is right and who is wrong." You and I are not children, so there is no need to say high-sounding lies that no one believes. ”

Clinton shrugged: "I just doubt your motives for supporting Hillary Clinton's candidacy for president." ”

Wei Dongsheng smiled: "In my heart, her wisdom is far less than one-tenth of yours. ”

Wei Dongsheng ended the topic of praising Clinton: "Right and wrong, our descendants have their own evaluation, we don't have to dwell on these now." Returning to the topic of China's economy, China's economy is currently advancing at a high speed, and there are opportunities everywhere; In the United States, economic growth has been sluggish and opportunities are limited. Developing the economy is like making a cake, if the cake is made quickly, cut and made more, you can eat enough; If the cake is made slowly, if you want to take more share, you have to grab other people's share. Snatching someone else's cake will lead to conflict, and then enmity, the conflict will become more and more intense, and you will live and die. ”

"The reason why the market value of Internet companies such as Google can expand rapidly like a balloon is because the real economy of the United States is in trouble, and the Internet industry has become the only opportunity. Spring and Autumn Search will definitely be besieged by Google, Yahoo, Microsoft, Ask, AOL and other companies when they come to the United States to grab the market; When Zhiyu comes to the United States, he will definitely be besieged by companies such as Intel and Motorola. The more capital supremacy the United States, the more dangerous it is for a rising star like me. ”

"Even if it succeeds in beating Google, there is a risk that it will be taken over by capital. Look at Google, at the annual general meeting held in the summer, the board of directors instigated the Trade International Pension Fund, which only holds 4,700 shares, to challenge Google's management, asking Google's management to cancel the two-tier shareholding structure on the grounds that "the two-level shareholding structure of A and B shares makes Google's control too concentrated in the hands of a few executives, and the company is difficult to be affected by external factors, and it will be easy to stick to a certain development strategy for a long time without knowing how to adapt to it". ”
