Chapter 886

"First of all, I don't mind financing. After all, Silicon Valley doesn't have the habit of eating alone. Naturally, I will adapt to the entrepreneurial environment of Silicon Valley.

As for the repurchase of some shares by you two, we can talk about it, but you two should pay attention. Oh, I never lose money. " Seeing Larry and Sergei staring at themselves nervously, Li Feng smiled in his heart and finally said in a deep voice.

Sure enough, when they heard Li Feng's final words, they gasped. Obviously, they were nervous before. Today's Google, especially the search support given to Yahoo from the beginning, has won the support of network users and has a bright future. If they can get more shares, it is naturally psychological joy for Larry and Sergei.

However, they can't help it now. At this time, they can't help feeling depressed. They deeply hate why they couldn't hold their breath at the beginning and why they sold Google completely for $1 million. Now it's too late to regret. Everything of the whole Google company belongs to Skynet technology company under Li Feng.

Similarly, for Li Feng, this is also what he thinks, but when he agrees, he naturally has to beat them for a while. Otherwise, who knows what kind of moths these two careless bosses will make in the future.

"However, Larry and Sergey, I don't think I'm a stingy boss. I should be generous whether I bought it with a million dollars or gave you 10% of your shares free of charge. I agree with your requirements again this time. I think it's the last time." Thinking of this, he suddenly said something again.

"John, thank you. We know that we will devote ourselves to the future development of Google. By the way, John, how many shares are you willing to give us to buy back?" Larry was happy to respond and asked a little uneasy.

"Ha ha... Don't worry. I can promise at least 5%. As for how much, I'll talk about it in detail later."

"OK, John, thank you!"

“…”

……

"Eric, what do you think of Google?" On the way back to Feixun, Li Feng suddenly smiled and asked Eric Schmidt.

"Boss, although Google now gets a certain fee by helping websites such as Yahoo do search support, with the increasing number of Internet users, it is obviously not enough to rely on this technical support fee.

Early Internet search companies may rely on such a profit model to support it, but with the continuous increase of visits, the operating costs of search engine companies will continue to increase. There is no doubt that finding a new profit model for search engines has become an urgent problem. "

"Yes, I heard that with the launch of Google and more advanced technology, the early search companies inktomi and Infoseek are becoming more and more difficult." Li Feng replied with a smile.

"Yes, inktomi has always been a search technology supplier of Yahoo. Facing the direct competition from Google, it is obvious that Google is obviously stronger in technology, which naturally makes inktomi uncomfortable.

As for Infoseek, since Netscape browser failed in the browser competition, its decline has become inevitable. It is said that Microsoft also plans to launch its own search engine. If we rely on Microsoft's operating system and browser, perhaps the search engine launched by Microsoft is our biggest competitor. "

"Microsoft, don't worry. Although Netscape failed this time, Microsoft is facing an antitrust investigation, which is enough for him to drink. If Microsoft wants to monopolize the Internet market alone, no one will agree." Li Feng replied with a smile.

……

Li Feng naturally knows Microsoft. Seriously, with the monopoly of the operating system, Microsoft really has unique conditions. It really wants to launch its own search engine. With the monopoly of the operating system, it can absolutely kill Google.

But when facing a strong opponent, Microsoft also needs to compromise. No one wants to see a Microsoft monopolize all the PC terminals.

This time Netscape sued Microsoft for monopoly competition and antitrust investigation, but it received the support of the whole Silicon Valley, not only Silicon Valley, but also a group of big men on Wall Street. It is really that Microsoft is very popular now. With the launch of 95 operating system, it is too conspicuous to see the value of gates and Allen, one step a year.

As the antitrust investigation began, many people stared at Microsoft and were thinking of taking a bite from Microsoft.

Of course, from the perspective of Li Feng from later generations, Microsoft used the monopoly of the operating system to launch IE and win the browser battle. At that time, it was a victory, but from the perspective of later generations, it was obviously disadvantageous.

After all, since the beginning of this time, as long as Microsoft uses the operating system to launch anything, it will always face antitrust investigations. Later generations of Microsoft have fallen into many antitrust investigations.

In particular, after facing the antitrust investigation, we can see that the Microsoft shares of gates are decreasing. Last year, Gates had more than four layers of Microsoft shares. Otherwise, why was it worth more than 30 billion last year? At that time, the market value of Microsoft was only 10 billion units, mainly because Gates had too many shares.

However, everyone in the future knows that Gates has not been worth more than 100 billion at the peak of the bubble. If you know that when the bubble is at its peak, if Microsoft's market value exceeds 500 billion, it will be more than 200 billion if it exceeds 4 shares before 97.

......

It can be said that an antitrust investigation has cost gates a lot. In order to avoid Microsoft being split, I don't know how many private transactions there are. Anyway, after the antitrust investigation, Gates's shares fell sharply, and some investment institutions that I haven't heard of have become Microsoft's shareholders. Where did these shares come from? To put it bluntly, Gates had to transfer and sell all his shares in order to deal with the fate of Microsoft's spin off.

Similarly, it also opened the curtain for the continued reduction of shares held by gates in the future.

As a descendant, Li Feng naturally knows that Google in the future will continue to face antitrust investigations from the European Union. It seems that the European Union has conducted antitrust investigations several times and has been fined. I don't know how many billion dollars.

In this regard, the previous generation of Google has never had an antitrust investigation in the United States. Although news broke out from time to time that it was going to conduct an antitrust investigation, after Google's public relations, the United States can always rest assured.

In fact, according to Li Feng, as Google is a Silicon Valley company, its traditional tradition is to share wealth. Even at the peak of Google's market value, the two founders of Google are worth only 450 billion or 500 billion. Facing the market value of 700 billion or 800 billion, 10% of their shares are less than 100%.

The shareholders behind Google are too complex, from the capital of Silicon Valley to the capital of Wall Street to the investment institutions in Washington, etc. No wonder Google can rest easy in the United States.

......

Compared with today's Microsoft, think about future generations of Google. In a word, Mr. Gates has too many personal shares, and too many people are jealous. When Netscape started, many forces rushed up.

When Li Feng wants to come, gates must be depressed at this time. He knew that the result of competition with Netscape was like this. He will never be enthusiastic about using the operating system monopoly advantage, which is not worth the loss.

It is precisely because of this understanding that Li Feng never thought to firmly control the shares of Google, including Feixun, and always share some of them. Similarly, this is also for the long-term consideration and future layout of his Silicon Valley Technology Group.

There is also the dispersion of the shares in his hands from the beginning, and there are few personal shares. Although outsiders know that Li Feng's personal shares are not just these, no one knows the specific.

For these shares destined to be hot, Li Feng has made great efforts. For example, initially 80% of Google's shares, and then add a fund or institution every once in a while, and these companies have acquired Li Feng's original shares nominally. Up to now, Li Feng's individual shares are about to reach less than 30%.

"Eric, which do you think is more promising, Google or Feixun?" Li Feng suddenly asked Eric.

"Well... Boss, do you have any new ideas for the development of Google?"

"Wow... Why do you think so?"

"Ha ha... I didn't know you. You are the famous St. John Lee, the son of wealth of America!"

"Eric, you're almost a worm in my stomach. How about you go to Google as CEO?"

"Ah...??"
