Chapter 874

For the Bank of Silicon Valley, it was not raised by Wu Jianmin, but Li Feng had heard of the name of the Bank of Silicon Valley in his previous life. Although the scale of the bank is not very large, it is very well-known in the field of high technology.

In the early 1980s, Silicon Valley Bank was established with the support of several banking institutions to focus on serving customers in Silicon Valley. Initially, its main business was simple savings and credit. In particular, Silicon Valley Bank, as its name implies, served Silicon Valley and launched financial services for innovation and adventure.

Different from venture capital, Silicon Valley Bank provides financial services for startups that have obtained angel investment, such as venture bond investment (VL), that is, loans for venture capital and technology start-ups.

With the tide of Silicon Valley sweeping the world, Silicon Valley banks have naturally developed rapidly. After obtaining the angel round, a large number of Companies in Silicon Valley have received loan financing from Silicon Valley banks, including the famous FB and Witt in the future. Silicon Valley banks have helped them grow. Naturally, they have also obtained huge benefits in this process.

Li Feng heard about this bank in his previous life when he was in Shanghai Pudong Development Bank. At that time, he handled credit card business in Shanghai Pudong Development Bank. Because he was also a millionaire with a house, a car and some deposits, the credit card limit was quite high.

At that time, Li Feng heard about the cooperation between Shanghai Pudong Development Bank and Silicon Valley Bank, and the establishment of the headquarters of Silicon Valley Bank in China in modu. He heard that Silicon Valley Bank was developing well. Here, he suddenly heard the presence of two leaders of Silicon Valley Bank. Li Feng immediately thought a little.

……

Of course, if you really want to buy Silicon Valley Bank, Li Feng doesn't know how difficult it is. He just knows that it is a Silicon Valley Bank jointly established by several banks. Li Feng doesn't know exactly which ones and what the shareholders of Silicon Valley Bank are now.

However, Li Feng is really thinking. Silicon Valley Bank specializes in Risky Bond mortgage loan business in the high-tech field, and Li Feng, as a reborn, knows better. The next scientific and technological revolution with the Internet as the core, if he holds Silicon Valley Bank, he will have half of the information of Silicon Valley.

Similarly, if we can really acquire Silicon Valley Bank, it is a very useful supplement to CSCB. After all, it is self-evident how much influence a hidden driving force in the high-tech field has on the future world in the face of the core banking and financial business in Silicon Valley.

Originally, Li Feng's development of CSCB in the United States was limited to the strategy of acquiring small and medium-sized banks in the United States. At this time, he found a new development direction.

If Silicon Valley bank refuses to cooperate, CSCB can also follow the model of Silicon Valley Bank and directly establish a Silicon Valley business department within the bank. CSCB business outlets in Silicon Valley can directly open the same business as Silicon Valley Bank to compete.

You know, in the small silicon valley, there are more than 300 banking institutions, including several major banks in the United States. There are too many large and small banking and financial institutions. Otherwise, why is it called "Western Wall Street" in the United States.

The old Silicon Valley friends who came inadvertently brought themselves a new development opportunity. Li Feng was immediately overjoyed and happily chatted with all the Silicon Valley bosses.

……

"John, we are now your loyal customers on the YY platform. Now we are all super members of YY. We have to spend some time every day playing some games on the YY platform, such as Texas poker and bridge. When are you going to go to Wall Street?" After a talk, AOL's chairman Steve Case said with a smile.

Hearing Keith's words, everyone in the audience immediately spoke and stared at Li Feng.

In fact, except Eric Schmidt, everyone else present may have the same thoughts as Keith thought. Today's Feixun technology company ranks behind Yahoo among Internet companies, and is privately praised by many people as "the second Yahoo of the Internet".

Moreover, today's Feixun technology has also found a profit model, that is, through YY member users, it has used various member model fees. Thanks to the consumption habits in Europe and America, today's member fee model is more acceptable than Penguin members in later China.

Now Feixun technology has been able to maintain profitability. It has to be said that the consumption habits in Europe and America are terrible. It is easy to accept that everything is charged. Nowadays, there are almost at least one YY in more than five layers of Internet users around the world. It can be imagined that one of them is powerful.

Of course, the number of Internet users is still too small. Besides, there are still too few member services. However, Li Feng's YY initially faced the global market. Now there are nearly 20 million global YY recharge members. Each moonlight is a membership fee, which is the income of hundreds of millions of dollars.

Now it is just a game platform. Recently, Feixun technology is jointly launching an online platform with game companies in the United States. It may be more perfect at that time.

……

Of course, Li Feng naturally has the so-called listing plan. Now is really not the time when Li Feng wants to come. When the future technology is more developed and all kinds of services including video are up, that is the best time to go public.

Besides, the bubble period before 2000 is the best accumulation period of Fei Xun Technology, including the launch of Google, which is the core industry of its own future. Li Feng has his own plan.

"Before that time, what is the purpose of listing? I just want to get development funds. Today's Feixun technology has been able to make a balance between revenue and expenditure and even a slight surplus through the membership platform service. For the time being, I think about how to occupy the global instant messaging market.

Besides, when development funds are really needed, Feixun technology can start a round of financing plan again. Since there is no need to worry about funds, it is not necessary to go public temporarily.

When we completely consolidate our market share, it will be the time to go public. For the time being, I don't think it's time. Steve, I heard that you are going to buy ICQ recently. If you do buy ICQ, relying on the huge number of users of AOL, you may be our biggest opponent.

Of course, we can't relax. There is another powerful opponent, Microsoft. I heard that Microsoft's MSN instant messaging software is about to be launched. Hey, what are you doing? I've worked hard to do something. You've all followed up. It's easy for me! "

Li Feng finally couldn't help laughing at the people, especially at AOL founder Steve case, which made them speechless for a while.

……

"John, I think your biggest enemy may still be Microsoft. I think you should know their bundling strategy. You should be careful about the lessons of Netscape." As soon as Li Feng's voice fell, Jim clarkton joked and reminded him.

"Haha... Jim, are you belittling AOL? Maybe I'll compete with John when I accept ICQ." Steve Keston replied proudly to the crowd.

"Well, it seems that Steve, your negotiation with ICQ is almost finished. Congratulations!"

"Come on, Steve, YY who killed John. It's unforgivable that a person who has not been in Silicon Valley for a long time occupies the position of the boss of Silicon Valley Internet companies!"

"Uh..."

"Ha ha..."

Yes, since the launch of isy, it has been popular all over the world. At first, ICQ was ready to give up, but I don't know whether it was because Li Feng's isy was too beautiful or something. Anyway, ICQ was restarted and obtained the investment of venture capital institutions in Israel.

The effect of ICQ after its launch is also good. It is mainly an English version. Now there are millions of users around the world, which is second only to isy's instant messaging software.

Just like in the original history, AOL also took a fancy to others. Li Feng has long known this in the recent negotiations. After all, he is also a competitor and always has to keep an eye on it. Schmidt mentioned it to Li Feng before.

……

Today's instant messaging history has naturally changed completely. Li Feng doesn't know whether the history of ICQ will be like that of previous lives. After all, his isy has been ahead as a reference.

YY in this life has completely swept the world through the leisure game platform and the launch of YY's latest members.
