While fighting with Intech, Feng Yu planned to return home, but before returning home, he met an old friend.
"Feng, if you invite me to your house, you won't worry about the bad influence on you?"
"Hahaha, it's you, not me that should worry. Steve, sit down. Here's the coffee they prepared. Would you like it? "
At his home in Los Angeles, Feng Yu met Steve Ballmer, President and CEO of Microsoft.
Ballmer sat down as usual, took a sip of coffee and seemed to like it.
"Feng, you asked me to come here. Are you going to make Lianxiang Yinshan reconcile with Microsoft? Let's re segment the market? "
"Steve, we don't need to be so tentative. You know it's impossible unless you Microsoft admit failure and give up half of the market."
Let Microsoft let out half of the market, Microsoft will not agree. Even though XOS system is rising rapidly at this time, after all, more users are still using Microsoft's system.
And it's impossible for Microsoft to admit defeat. Even if Ballmer agrees, Bill Gates will never agree. What's more, Ballmer himself disagrees.
"So you came to me?"
In fact, Ballmer has already had a guess in his heart, but when he said it, it was definitely not the same as when Feng Yu said it.
"Steve, remember I told you that Microsoft is not a good place to work. Bill Gates's character, it is doomed that he will not give you much power. Paul, who is also one of the founders, doesn't have much power. He puts his own label on Microsoft. "
"Feng, I am already the president and CEO of Microsoft. In the future, when Bill retires, I will become the chairman of the board. I am the chairman of Microsoft!"
Feng Yu smiled: "Steve, bill is only one year older than you. When he retires, will you be able to work?"? Even now, you are the president and CEO of Microsoft, but how much power do you have? How many things can you decide? "
"Bill Gates is still the chairman of the board. The major issues in the company still need his consent. For example, do you have the power to appoint the person in charge of Microsoft Huaxia company? "
"Feng, the appointment of senior executives is to pass the board of directors. Your example is very inappropriate." Balmer retorted.
"What about the vice president? Vice president of Huaxia company, President and CEO of your company, and the third largest voting director of the company, do you have the right to appoint? Or your nomination, will it pass? " Feng Yu asked with a smile.
Balmer was silent. Feng Yu said that it happened more than once in reality. He suggested several executive positions, but only one passed, because that person was also Bill's favorite.
His company is nominally the chief executive, but in fact it has very limited power. His voice in the company is not even Paul Allen's. Although Paul Allen is the second largest shareholder and one of the founders of the company, his name is Ballmer!
But his second in command is really only nominal.
Of course, there are also substantial benefits, that is, he is also the president and CEO, can get a higher salary, can get more Microsoft stock awards or share subscription rights.
But that's not what Ballmer wants. He's not short of money now. He has billions of dollars in assets. He wants to increase his power and let Microsoft climb a higher mountain under his leadership.
Instead of being considered, he is just a puppet of Bill Gates. The power of the president is similar to that of the CEOs of other companies.
"Steve, a lot of people are talking about you now, and I think you've heard about it. Your contribution in Microsoft should not be just like this. And your ability shouldn't just show it. "
"Look at the presidents or CEOs of other big companies. How powerful are they? Their words and deeds can represent the company. And you, can you? "
"When people talk about Microsoft, they always think of Bill Gates and maybe Paul Allen, but who thinks of you? This is unimaginable in other companies. The CEO should be the representative of the company in the eyes of the public media, not just a communicator! "
"Are you really happy at Microsoft? Can you really realize your dream? "
Feng Yu's words were like a hammer of a thousand jin, which hit Bauer's chest, making him feel more and more depressed.
At the beginning, he was very grateful for his early participation in Microsoft, and gradually became one of the giants of Microsoft. He once thought that he would become one of Microsoft's business cards.
But reality gave him a slap in the face. People said that Microsoft seldom mentioned him.
He also thought that Bill Gates might retire, but as Feng Yu said, Bill Gates is one year older than him. When Bill Gates retires, won't he pull him to retire?
Before Bill Gates gave up the CEO to him, which meant he would retire. That's because Bill Gates has no pursuit. He is the richest man in the world, seeking defeat alone.But now it's different. The richest man in the world has changed into the younger Feng Yu. Bill Gates has a new goal in his life, which may not be achieved in a short time.
So the retirement time of Bill Gates will be delayed. Is he waiting for that day?
Look at that Ralph. Once he didn't care. But now, Ralph has become the CEO of wind and rain holding group, and has become a successful person in many people's hearts. What's important is that although Fengyu has the brand of Fengyu, Fengyu is very bold to delegate power to others.
Ralph's wealth soared and his status soared. If that doesn't mean anything, what about Kameda?
It is said that Feng Yu was a bankrupt and unemployed young man. But with the help of Feng Yu, he rose step by step and gained the full trust of Feng Yu. He became the president and CEO of wind and rain holding.
Although the CEO has now been transferred to Ralph, Kamata Zhengxiong is still regarded by many as the representative of wind and rain holding. And Kamata Zhengxiong's contacts, but also rapid expansion, asset inflation.
It's only a few years. I've turned him in.
So it seems that with Feng Yugan, the income will be higher and the achievements will be greater.
However, at this time, Feng Yu's two holding group companies, senior executives have people, he even went, what position can Feng Yu give him? And will he be able to get the support of others when he takes office alone?
At Microsoft, he is also the top official in name. Although this one needs to be quoted, he is more familiar with it after all.
If we go to talk with Feng Yu, if we fail, where will he go in the future?
At this moment, Ballmer was lost.
