Steve Ballmer repeatedly confirmed that Lin Feng was not joking and left with a gloomy face. 50 dollars a share, which is too outrageous. Although Microsoft is sure to win "aquantive", it is not a big loser who has been slaughtered like this. But although Steve Ballmer was upset, Lin Feng's Lion opened his mouth, but his words didn't die.
Looking at Steve Ballmer leaving with a gloomy face, Lin Feng smiles and turns to call his chief consultant, Abby Cohen.
"What, Lin, Microsoft is really starting to acquire" aquantive. " On the phone, Abby Cohen was half surprised and half proud. After all, let Lin Feng buy "aquantive" is her idea. Now Microsoft is willing to buy it at the price of $39 A share, which proves her original vision.
"But I refused. I offered $50 a share." Lin fenglue said in a slightly complacent tone. Although Steve Ballmer was swept away by the $50-a-share lion's mouth, Lin Feng was not worried that Microsoft would retreat. On the contrary, I will come to negotiate with myself again“ With the rise of "Google", Microsoft must have a "weapon" against "Google".
Besides, even if $50 a share really scares Microsoft away, Lin Feng doesn't care. Just hold it in your hand and make money slowly. There are at least several million dollars of dividends a year, and with the Internet going deep into every corner of the world, Lin Feng believes that the future earnings will be higher.
"Lin, are you really going to sell" a quantitative " Asked Abby Cohen. At first, Abby Cohen asked Lin Feng to buy it, but now that Lin Feng owns Baidu, he doesn't need to sell it. When Baidu goes public, he can integrate it into a parent company. In this way, google also has the opportunity to enter the U.S. market. Of course, what we will face at that time will be the comprehensive suppression of the powerful "Google".
"As long as the price is right, there's nothing to keep" aquantive. " Lin Feng said firmly.
Although Lin Feng now owns Baidu, after he owns Baidu, Lin Feng has already transferred the "dynamic advertising report and target positioning" technology of "aquantive" to Baidu by taking advantage of his holding right. It can be said that "aquantive" is now dispensable to Lin Feng except for the customer information and market. It would be nice to sell it for cash.
As for Baidu to enter the U.S. market, in Lin Feng's view, too early. Baidu is now doing well in the Chinese mainland market, and then slowly radiating from the mainland. Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan gradually spread to Asia. America is the last market!
After hearing this, Abby Cohen thought a little and said, "since you want to sell it, raise the price to $60."
"Sixty dollars!" Lin Feng was startled. I didn't expect that Abby Cohen was more "black" than himself, and even threatened to ask for $60.
"Not bad. Lin, since Microsoft is interested in "aquantive" and wants to acquire it, we naturally want to make the most profit. Microsoft is not short of money. If they really want to fight against Google, "aquantive" is the best Internet advertising company they can choose now. " Abby Cohen has been on Wall Street for more than ten years, which is known as the "Wall Street" myth. In terms of investment, especially in estimating the psychological price of acquisition, Abby Cohen is not the first in the world, but he is definitely in the top five in the world.
Microsoft wants to buy "aquantive". The price of $60 is definitely the price it can bear. What's more, as long as we put a little bit of wind and do a little bit of tricks, as soon as the stock price of "aquantive" rises, or "Google" gets new financing, Microsoft is bound to make a move.
Later, after Lin Feng and Abby Cohen discussed some details, Abby Cohen told Lin Feng not to let go easily and then came over from Shanghai with the investment team. If the acquisition, will cause a sensation, Microsoft and "Google" confrontation, will jump in the eyes of the public. It is the duty of Abby Cohen and others to make the most of Lin Feng's profit in this incident.
What's more, Lin Feng's goal this time is not only to sell "aquantive" and finance "Google", but also to help Avril and Michael Jackson fight the global record company's ban.
While waiting for Abby Cohen, Lin Feng leisurely lives in "Neverland" purchased by Avril. Besides fishing and feeding animals, he flirts with Avril every day. Unfortunately, at present, affected by the blocking of records, Avril was angry. Although she didn't vent her anger on Lin Feng, Lin Feng didn't break through the last line of defense. He threatened that unless Lin Feng defeated these abominable record companies, he would never get her.
Avril's statement depressed Lin Feng. Every day holding a petite beauty, can kiss, can touch, is not on, this is undoubtedly a very tormenting thing.
Damn Sony records, damn Warner times, you wait, I will make you look good—— Lin Feng vented all his lust on these record companies - now Lin Feng has an absolute reason to beat this record company ban.
Fortunately, this kind of "life is not like death" days did not last long, Abby Cohen came with the whole investment team. Abby Cohen and the whole investment team were slightly surprised when they first arrived at Neverland. They have heard about this "Neverland" for a long time, which is known as the most luxurious private manor in the world. Today, when they see it, they know that what they have said is true. There is absolutely no exaggeration. It is just like a paradise in the world.
After a night off at Neverland, the next day, Lin Feng, Abby Cohen and others rushed to Google headquarters. But this time, instead of meeting Eric Schmidt, the president of Google, we met Larry Page and Sergey Brin, the two founders of Google. As long as they are convinced that the two people who have a majority stake in "Google" can also agree to Lin Feng's financing.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Lin." Larry Page and Lin Feng met once, and Lin Feng has been in the news all the time. Although it took nearly a year, he could recognize Lin Feng.
"Mr. Page, long time no see. Now he's more energetic." Lin Feng said politely.
After a brief greeting, Abby Cohen went straight to the point and told Larry Page and Sergey Brin that Lin Feng wanted to raise "Google" at a price of $500 million in exchange for a 5% stake.
Larry Page and Sergey Brin frowned. Both of them knew about the meeting between Lin Feng and Eric Schmidt. Although "Google" now needs financing and is also very interested in Lin Feng's $500 million financing plan, as Eric Schmidt, the current president of "Google", said, Lin Feng has "Baidu", which occupies an absolute dominant position in the Chinese search engine market. The two companies are potential enemies. Lin Feng's 500 million dollars, they can only bear to refuse.
Today, after getting Lin Feng's invitation, Larry Page and Sergey Brin hesitated and decided to meet again. After all, Lin Feng's identity is different now, so they have to give Lin Feng face. Otherwise, if it is spread out, it will appear that "Google" is too arrogant; Second, I'm afraid that in case I'm angry with Lin Feng, Lin Feng will attack him. That's a big headache.
Because Lin Feng owns "aquantive", which is a headache for Google. If Lin Feng is forced to take advantage of the loss making "aquantive" to snipe them, "Google" is not afraid, but it is a situation in which both sides are defeated. Therefore, after discussing with Sergey Brin, Larry Page decided to meet Lin Feng first to see what Lin Feng said.
"Mr. Lin, I think Eric Schmidt, President of our company, should have answered this question. He is now in charge of Google administration, and we are only responsible for technology. " Larry Page prevaricated.
Lin Feng smiles.
"But the situation will change. I believe Mr. Page and Mr. brin will reconsider my financing plan when they know the news." Lin Feng asked Abby Cohen to show them the copy contract of Microsoft's acquisition of "aquantive".
Larry Page and Sergey Brin were surprised. They didn't expect that Microsoft had already begun to prepare to deal with "Google" and bought Lin Feng's "aquantive" at $39 per share. This makes Larry Page feel a sigh in his heart that Microsoft is rich and powerful. Today's "Google" is not qualified to fight with "Microsoft". If you want to keep the existing market, develop rapidly and go public, this second financing is imperative.
Several major investment banks have agreed to finance "Google", but the price is not as good as Lin Feng. They only agreed to finance 17% of "Google" shares at a price of 1 billion US dollars. Originally, Larry Page and others were very satisfied with the financing plan. However, after reading Lin Feng's financing plan, although they have rejected Lin Feng's financing plan, they can't help muttering that these investment banks are a bit of robbing.
Now, seeing that Microsoft wants to buy the "aquantive" company, I feel even worse. Now is the time for Google to transform again, but it has been hit one after another, which makes Larry Page and Sergey Brin a little headache and helpless.
If "Google" goes public, it will naturally be able to raise funds through the stock market. Why should it be "blackmailed" by investment banks? Why should it be afraid of the aggressiveness of "Microsoft" and the "sword" of Lin Feng.
At the moment, Abby Cohen shows this contract, isn't it a demonstration( To be continued, if you want to know the future, please log in www.qidian.com , more chapters, support authors, support legitimate reading!)
