Chapter 1127 Design

On this night at Mayer's new home, Feng Yiping understood a very intuitive sentence: What is the land of gentleness? It is a hero's tomb.

At noon the next day, Nicklas Zengstrom, who was excitedly rushing from Denmark, met Feng Yiping in the nextdoor park. When he saw Feng Yiping's expression that looked obviously more tired than him, he did not talk to him about the acquisition. The first sentence was, "Feng, you must pay attention to rest,"

"Thank you Nick," Feng Yiping enthusiastically hugged the lucky entrepreneur.

This was the second time they met in less than two months, and this time, many situations were much clearer than last time.

Zengstrom could not hide his excitement. His second entrepreneurship now seems to be no longer creating a download myth like the music sharing software kazaa he launched, but it did not bring any benefits except to stab a big hornet in the music industry and make a group of big players in the music industry hate him to the core.

This time, the success of the products launched by the startup is obvious to all. Skype's users have reached 165 million, and it is growing rapidly at a scale of more than 100,000 people per day.

From the perspective of rewards, the success of this business will definitely be gratifying and amazing.

Zengstrom, who also has a degree in corporate management, is not an engineering technician. From Microsoft, Yahoo, Google, News Corp. to now eBay, he can clearly see what kind of rewards he has launched this time based on the free and sharing spirit of the Internet.

After a preliminary discussion with relevant professionals, Zengstrom understood that this time he started a business, he would steadily enter the ranks of the billionaire club.

One thing that is uncertain is whether you will become a billionaire at the hundreds of millions or a billionaire at the billionaire.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to be the second Mark Cuban.

Because Yahoo acquired the broadcast website he founded for $5.7 billion in 1999, Mark Cuban's net worth was over one billion. From then on, he bought luxury houses, planes, and NBA teams, and there was still a shortage of all kinds of beauties around him...

This is also the reason why he hurried to Silicon Valley as soon as he received a call from Feng Yiping.

"You know, there are a lot of things happening recently," Feng Yiping rubbed his temples and took a big sip of black coffee.

"By the way, Feng, first of all, congratulations. Congratulations to you on the two perfect mergers and acquisitions that have been completed and will be completed in China and the United States," said Zengstrom. "In the first quarter of the new year, we have confirmed that the total amount is close to $5 billion. Feng, you are indeed a big deal,"

"Thank you, but I think I have completed and will carry out some mergers and acquisitions in the future, which will be eclipsed in the face of your acquisition, Nick," Feng Yiping looked at him and said, "The skype you founded will surely become the benchmark in the minds of many entrepreneurs in the future and the peak they are determined to cross."

"Do you think so, Von," Zengstrom couldn't suppress the joy on his face.

Before starting this business, he naturally had a beautiful vision, but his original vision, compared with the current situation, was so conservative that it was not worth mentioning.

The rewards I will definitely get this time will be far beyond my original imagination.

"Of course, this is certain," Feng Yiping said affirmatively, "But Nick, I hope that you and the board of directors can authorize me to lead the acquisition."

"I have no problem at all," Zengstrom said immediately.

This was also unexpected to him. If a big shot like Feng Yiping leads such merger negotiations, the best result will inevitably come.

“I think the board is happy to see this situation,” he added. “I will prepare for a board meeting as soon as possible.”

This is inevitable. In the business world, who now does not agree with Feng Yiping's vision and his ability?

Most of the people who are interested in acquiring Skype this time are American high-tech companies. Who knows these companies better than Feng Yiping on the board of directors of Skype?

"But Nick, there is a very important point. I hope to disclose the news from you. I am against the sale of skype," Feng Yiping continued.

Zengstrom thought for a moment, "It's OK, I understand," he nodded, "This will naturally make those companies interested in buying us and consider increasing their bids," he said.

This is also a good thing, so he naturally would not refuse.

"Feng, so you have not only developed a clear goal, but also a specific strategy, haha," he couldn't help laughing.

This is simply great!

"We have the strongest willingness to acquire companies, so we are the most likely to pay high prices. I believe you understand it in your heart, right," said Feng Yiping.

“So, so I think the board will not worry about the conflict of interest that may arise because I am a major shareholder of Google,” he said.

The reason Feng Yiping said this is because Google also showed interest in skype.

“Yes, I think the board can understand that some of the companies that are interested in us, their main motivation is not really how interested we are, but for the need to curb our competitors,” Zengstrom said.

Feng Yiping looked at Zengstrom and nodded in appreciation. This was a sensible person.

Similar situations are not the case in Europe and the United States, but later in China. Bats often invest in an industry one after another. Sometimes, it is not that they are optimistic about that industry, mainly because they don’t want their opponents to do it too easily and comfortably in that industry, and always want to give them some bets.

The same is true for Google's starting point this time.

Google is actually developing similar products now - the later Googletalk.

They were not really determined to win Skype, but because Microsoft and Yahoo, especially Yahoo, showed interest in Skype, they immediately came out to intervene.

Some are similar to intentionally participate in real and fake during auctions, so that the opponent can increase the bid.

"Feng, I think, now we will start to form a professional team and let them assist you in your work, okay?" Zengstrom asked.

No matter how trust Feng Yiping is or how much recognition Feng Yiping is, it is naturally impossible for all major matters that concern everyone's interests to be handled by Feng Yiping personally. To form a team responsible for Feng Yiping is certainly to assist and share his work, from one perspective, of course it is also a trade-off and supervision.

"Of course, after the board of directors determines the authorization to me, the sooner this team is formed, the better," Feng Yiping knew this well, and there was no doubt about it.

Putting aside business principles, this will definitely be an acquisition of US$1 billion. In the face of such huge benefits, who would trust a person without reservation and hand it over to one person?

"But Nick, it's very likely that you might have to devote yourself to the relevant work next. Are you ready?"

"Feng, you mean, will anyone else know that I have arrived in Silicon Valley and want to meet me?"

"That's certain. I believe that after you leave the park, you will receive an invitation to meet soon."

"I can probably think of who would want to meet me most urgently," said Zengstrom. "This is the first time I know that some people are hostile to us, and that our gains can also be improved."

What he said was naturally Whitman.

With the World Economic Forum, the disagreement between Whitman and Feng Yiping can be said that everyone in the world who wants to know knows it.

"No," Feng Yiping shook his head, "Whether it is me or my company, we have always advocated life-and-death competition. From this point of view, we have no hostile object,"

"Yes, Feng, you are focusing on opening up the blue ocean," Zengstrom praised Feng Yiping just right, "I am really worried about the individuals and companies that regard you as hostile objects, haha,"

"No, I have to stay here for a while. I think you have to teach me how to act after meeting them."

Otherwise, life is like a play, for the sake of one's own interests, Zengstrom also needs to act next.

"I think the first point is not to accept their invitation to meet easily, what do you think," said Feng Yiping.

Zengstrom thought for a while, "I agree completely,"

"Next, I think this is possible..."

"Yes, I think, I can do this..."

Feng Yiping's office has temporarily become a Romance Salon with only two people, but I don't know how high the box office they will achieve in the play they will be in.
