Chapter 579 The last day
On the day when Paulson represented the US government and took over Freddie and Fannie Mai, which was trapped in the quagmire, Yahoo, another company that was even more resounding than Freddie and Fannie Mai, also ushered in its final day in Silicon Valley.
Tomorrow, SoftBank’s team will officially take over, and from then on, Yahoo will become SoftBank’s Yahoo.
This weekend, the Yahoo Park staff looks even more than usual.
Those executives who are not very easy to meet on weekdays seem to have made an appointment. Many of them come and don’t stay in the office. Just like those tourists, walking around the park, you will encounter one if you are not interested, and you will encounter another if you are not interested.
These executives are particularly warm today. Even those guys who were always arrogant and unfamiliar would definitely be smiling when they were greeted.
Sometimes, they would take the initiative to invite people to take photos, but they didn’t know whether they were for the commemoration or for the tribute.
Chief Yang is also among them.
Today, he is a bit like the weird uncle in front of McDonald's, and he is a group photo that many people don't want to miss.
Because everyone knows that, no matter whether they will stay at Yahoo or not, the two chiefs will definitely leave the company they founded.
That is, there is no chance to take a photo with them in the future.
Chief Yang was also very cooperative today, and it can be said that he would refuse everyone. He should have been in the office because there were many documents on the table that he needed to process, but today, he really couldn't sit still.
At this moment, he was really mixed with emotion when he looked at the park where he could walk through with his eyes closed, but when he faced the camera, he smiled.
Despite this, there should be more than one person who saw the bleakness in his eyes that might have been stained by the season.
It is of course a success that Yahoo can eventually sell for more than $50 billion, but such success can only be considered a complete failure for him and Ferro.
Chief Yang, who was taking a photo with several engineers, saw the one standing aside and watched, and quickly signaled him to wait. The people who were still waiting consciously dispersed when they saw this. They had also received news that, like Chief Yang, the company's senior executive vice president will also leave. In fact, he has completed the resignation procedures.
"Lu," Chief Yang and Dr. Lu walked side by side, "Sorry, I've always wanted to find time to talk to you, but you know, these days..."
"I understand," said Dr. Lu, "thank you, Chief,"
"Chief?" Chief Yang shook his head with a wry smile, "Where is there any chief?"
Although SoftBank has made a special promise that he and Ferro will still retain the title of Yahoo Chief, but even the company is gone, what else is the chief?
"Of course you are the chief, and even this last squad has received praise from everyone," said Dr. Lu.
"No more talk about this," Chief Yang looked at him, "I'm sorry for the sudden change in the company that you have to re-plan your career,"
"There is no need to do this. I'm at Yahoo, and this year is exactly the tenth year. You also know that in our culture, ten years are a very complete number."
"And my development at Yahoo is also very successful, so this is good," said Dr. Lu.
"Also, I have to thank you and the company for allowing me to complete the relevant process so quickly."
As one of Yahoo's most core and important executives, his resignation was not quick at first, but this time it was particularly smooth. He knew that this must be the reason why Chief Yang took care of him behind his back.
"Several people have decided to leave," Chief Yang stopped, sighed lightly, and said self-deprecatingly, "This is also the last benefit the company has provided for you,"
"You know, we can only do so much now,"
Dr. Lu said, "This is already very good," he reached out, but before he could say goodbye, Chief Yang asked again, "You have really thought about it?"
Dr. Lu nodded, "Yes, I've thought about it."
“After the handover is completed, I
