Chapter 555

"Mr. Gao, when Penguin raised funds, we had an agreement with IDG and keying that they could decide on their own disposal of shares. Therefore, they told us that it was friendship and had no obligation not to tell us."

President Zeng suffered a loss. President Xiao Ma came forward again and pushed the gold wire glasses on the bridge of his nose, but he was not asked by Gao mu.

Seek truth from facts and remain calm.

"So did they say it or didn't they say it?"

Gao Mu is still satisfied with Xiao Ma's response. He is worthy of developing penguins into a overlord. He has built himself an Internet business empire in just a dozen years. It's good, very good.

"Cough," Mr. Ma coughed awkwardly. "Mr. Xu of IDG talked to us and said that Mr. Gao started penguin's shares for your e-commerce website and wanted to embed Q goose software into your shopping platform?"

The other party didn't say it. As the CEO of penguin technology, he would certainly ask carefully. Keying said ambiguous things. President Xu, who is responsible for the specific procedures at IDG, said a lot.

Including Gao Mu's limited background and his so-called purpose of starting Penguin technology shares, it's impossible to say everything in detail. Therefore, President Xiao Ma still can't be sure about Gao Mu's real purpose.

"Yes, what president Xu said is my ultimate goal. President Ma is also a big man in the Internet industry. Should he be familiar with e-commerce?"

Gao Mu asked with some meaning. Like Ma Yiming, he was curious about President Xiao Ma. He wanted to take this question to solve a doubt in his heart.

"Of course, I didn't hide from President Gao. Just last year, I almost entered this industry." President Xiao Ma didn't hide from President Gao mu, and even began to talk a little proudly, "President Gao should be familiar with the forty thieves in Hangzhou?"

"Of course, like our Duobao Pinpin, they all do online shopping. I still know a lot about the forty thieves."

Compared with the 40 thieves with large capital and international capital, Duobao Pinpin without foreign capital seems to be a lot more low-key. It is clear that it is the first in the industry, but it is not as famous as the 40 thieves in the circle.

This should have the fame bonus of Feng Qingyang and CAI Xincong, as well as the bonus of overseas capital Qi who is optimistic about the forty thieves. Just like Xu Yingjia, the former vice president of IDG capital, it is clear that Duobao is better for development, but everyone is more optimistic about the prospects and potential of the forty thieves.

"If you understand, I don't need to spend more time talking," Mr. Xiao Ma smiled calmly, but didn't care more about the fame of the forty thieves and Duobao. He continued, "the popularity of the forty thieves came to me last year and wanted me to invest in their company."

"Really? Did Ma Zong invest?"

Gao Mu's eyes narrowed. Sure enough, this Jianghu rumor really existed. It was really more difficult than Xiao Ma at the beginning of his business.

If he didn't have to, he wouldn't have focused on President Xiao Ma, who may be a little better than him, but not much better.

There is no way to pick a big man from a short man and a tall man from a short man.

"No."

Mr. Ma glanced at Gao mu. If he agreed to the fengqingyang invitation, he might not be like this now.

Mr. Ma is still very lucky. If he hadn't refused to be popular at the beginning, he might have really plunged into the e-commerce industry.

If it weren't for the clear and unacceptable conditions put forward by himself, and the last shooting and scattering didn't cooperate again, his Penguin technology might not be as vibrant as it is now.

"Why?"

Gao Mu's curiosity is still rolling. President Xiao Ma didn't seize such a good opportunity. I don't know what he thinks.

Maybe he didn't know what he refused until a few years later?

Later in his previous life, when penguins and the Forty Thieves developed into Big Macs and super crocodiles, his chagrin didn't know if it made him furious?

"In fact, it's very simple. I personally don't think much of e-commerce. So I didn't catch a cold when I told him to let 15% of the shares. The condition I put forward at that time was that I could participate, but I had to account for at least 50%, otherwise it wouldn't make much sense."

Mr. Ma said frankly that this rejection is still the right choice. At least his penguins are developing well.

A Golden Nest and a silver nest are not as good as your own dog's nest.

On this point, President Xiao Ma, as the founder of the enterprise, has different views from Li zhekai of keying and vice president Xu of IDG. They think that e-commerce has more opportunities. President Xiao Ma thinks that his instant messaging is the future development route of the Internet.

Gao Mu nodded with a smile. This is meaningless without 50%. He completely understood it.

To put it bluntly, it is actually the reason for the right to speak.

Whether it's Mr. Ma or the breeze, they are all ambitious people with thousands of gullies.

Those who are committed to achieving a great cause and creating their own business empire want them to subordinate themselves to others. They have no expression on the surface, but they must be unwilling in the heart.

One mountain can't tolerate two tigers. Such a tiger is completely different from the other four tigers who follow him to start a business.

Therefore, under the psychological influence that no one is willing to succumb to each other, whether Feng Qingyang invites President Ma to participate in the forty thieves or President Ma invites Feng Qingyang to join Penguin technology, it can only be a beautiful idea, which is difficult to achieve in reality.

Perhaps after many years, Xiaoma will always publicize his regret as a story, but if the time comes again, his choice is still likely to refuse.

The boss's heart is still very stubborn.

And it seems that the little Ma with a kind face always says his regret with a smile. Is it really regret?

Is it true that he made a big fuss and said that he regretted the invitation?

We only know that after the achievement of their respective business empires, they are naturally on the opposite side. The forty thieves want to enter the entertainment and social industry, and Penguin technology also constantly wants to enter the field of e-commerce.

Xiao Ma always confesses publicly on this matter and doesn't mention it with Feng Qingyang. Doesn't it just mean that Xiao Ma is always intentional?

A woman's heart is a submarine needle, and a big man's heart is a needle in the Mariana Trench.

Of course, the 50% shares proposed by President Xiao Ma will not be allowed if they are clear. He is not a fool who will spoil the company he founded.

In Feng Qingyang's opinion, President Xiao Ma's request for 50% of the shares clearly means that he is completely rejected or even despised.

Maybe if he thought more, he would feel that Xiaoma was always insulting him, and maybe some silent beams were formed in this way.

Of course, time has also proved that President Ma made a wrong judgment on this matter. If he had not refused to be popular at that time, he would have been the richest man in the world if he had not been bent on seeking 50% of the shares, even if it was not 15%, but only 5% of the financial investment.

Gao Mu even guessed whether it was because of this confrontation that Feng Qingyang and President Xiao Ma were very different in their later investment styles.

Because of his remorse and endless regret, President Xiao Ma basically only makes strategic investment in subsequent commercial investment, does not interfere with the development and management of the enterprise, and just wants to try whether he can invest in a new 40 thieves.

The reason is that this slightly humiliating failure will deeply interfere with the companies he invests in, or even completely replace the founding team.
