Chapter 209

Geely Hutt arranged for the acquisition of symbol, while Henry was in charge of the acquisition.

Henry has absolute control over ICQ, but he still has to discuss with Tian Shuai, CEO of ICQ company, before deciding whether to merge the company into Nicholas group and become one of its subsidiaries.

Henry asked Tian Shuai, "what kind of sparks do you think will be generated by the combination of social networking and e-commerce?"

"Unimaginable!"

"Yes, it's hard to imagine!" Henry said, looking at him and asking, "do you want to see that spark?"

"Well?" When Tian Shuai heard this, he immediately looked at Henry in amazement and wondered, "Chairman, what do you mean?"

Henry smiles and says, "the combination of the world's largest e-commerce company and the world's largest instant messaging software company must be amazing!"

"Chairman, do you want to merge ICQ company and Nicholas international e-commerce company?"

"Yes, I mean that!" Henry said slowly, "however, there is no need to merge. Both sides have cross shareholdings and become subsidiaries of Nicholas group. In the future, the main strategic development is dominated by the parent company!"

"What do you mean?" Henry asked, looking him in the eye.

"Since the chairman nodded and agreed, I will support it!" Tian Shuai knows in his heart that both companies belong to Chairman Henry Williams. It's just a matter of turning left hand to right hand to bring ICQ company into Nicholas group! However, after merging into Nicholas group, the development speed of ICQ will be faster and its position will be stronger! At the same time, Nicholas group can also develop more rapidly! It's really a combination that benefits both sides ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!!!

However, my own shares will be diluted again

Tian Shuai secretly shakes his head in his heart. Who is to say that the biggest companies on the Internet are all his!

Henry nodded with a smile. "Well, you should communicate with Geely Hutt as soon as possible to see what kind of merger and acquisition method is good!"

"Well, good!" Tian Shuai nodded.

Henry answered softly, and then thought about how ICQ company will develop in the future!

ICQ is an instant messaging software, which has the functions of multi person chat, file transmission, text chat, etc. at present, it will also have the functions of video chat, multi person voice conference, and even can make domestic and international calls, no matter fixed telephone, mobile phone or PHS, and can realize the functions of call transfer, SMS sending, etc!

This is just the function of ICQ itself.

ICQ companies must also diversify their development. Through ICQ instant messaging software, they can also set foot in more industries, and the most profitable one is games

Firefly game companies are also playing games, but they can segment the market.

Firefly game company is doing large competitive games, and ICQ company is doing chess or some puzzle games, although the game is small, it is also very profitable!

This market segmentation, no doubt the game field are monopolized by Henry!

How profitable the game is!

But the portal website also may do, so long as subdivides the market, also can snatch many market shares. Only when there is competition can there be motivation. Only when there are companies chasing after, can global online portals not relax! Henry is equal to the ICQ portal as a catfish into, and then activate the power of global online!

Henry doesn't want the world online to repeat Yahoo's mistakes!

……

After more than a week, Nicholas group announced that it had completed the acquisition plan of ICQ company, and exchanged 20% of Nicholas international e-commerce shares for 60% of ICQ company shares. In the future, Nicholas group's e-commerce platforms will use ICQ for communication!

All ICQ users automatically become Nicholas users and can log in directly to eBay, Amazon and Alibaba.

ICQ software interface will add an application option - "e-commerce"!

After the announcement of this news, there was a huge sensation immediately!

Experts and professors agree that the acquisition of ICQ by Nicholas group will play an immeasurable role in the development of the group! And for other e-commerce websites, it is undoubtedly a disaster of extinction!!!

On that day, the stock prices of Nicholas international e-commerce and Nicholas IMDB began to rise wildly. Among them, the market value of Nicholas international e-commerce rose to 120 billion US dollars, while the market value of Nicholas IMDB rose to 60 billion US dollars!

Shortly after that, the four major websites of eBay, Amazon, Alibaba and IMDB were partially revised and ICQ was implanted into them. In addition, wish list also officially launched!

"If you have anything you want to buy, put it on the wish list and ask him to pay for it!"

For a time, this slogan spread on the four websites of Nicholas group and ICQ, and soon spread all over the Internet!

If a wish list is opened, a heart-shaped wish list symbol will be marked next to the ICQ avatar. Gray means that the wish list has not been realized, white means that the wish list has been realized, and half gray and half white means that the wish list has only been partially realized

"Honey, can you fulfill my wish?"

"What do you want?"

"It's in the wish list. Go in and light them up..."

Ten seconds later, a man suddenly "poof" almost want to vomit blood.

"How can I afford it when you place so many orders?"

"Well, if you don't buy it, I'll see if there are other people who will help me realize my wish!"

“……”

Three days later, Geely Hutt went to Henry excitedly and said, "Chairman, guess what sales we have in recent days?"

"100 million dollars?"

"How could it be 100 million!" Geely Hutt said excitedly, "in these three days, our sales have exceeded 500 million dollars! Within three days, more than three million wish lists were used, of which more than 800000 were fully realized, and more than 1.6 million were partially realized. Through the wish list activities, more than two million new online shopping users were added! "

After hearing this, Henry was surprised: "how many?"

After a while, Henry regained his mind, then pondered for a while, and said: "maybe now because the wish list is full of freshness, I thought that for some time, the sales would not be so exaggerated! However, there are more than two million new online shopping users, which is really beyond my expectation! "

"In addition, virtual goods should also be developed quickly. It's very profitable!"

"Well!"

"Oh, by the way, remember to let ICQ create a virtual community in which these virtual items can be used! In this virtual community, everyone can choose a career they like and then socialize. Here, we must build a virtual community close to the real world. We need money for clothing, food, housing and transportation, and we can get a salary through work. But if we want to live a rich life, buy a villa, a luxury car, and buy brand clothes, then recharge and exchange for virtual currency!!! I think, such a virtual community will be full of attraction to users! "

"Virtual community!"

Geely Hutt didn't just smack his tongue. Henry opened his mouth and spat out a shocking idea. Judging from his experience, this virtual community will definitely be a big profit game（ PS: genuine alliance has launched a call to you! Let's-go）
