Chapter 1192 Bill Gates' concerns

Chapter 1,192 Bill Gates’ Worries

"I want to kick Jerry Yang and Robin Li out!" Lin Feng said with an angry look on his face.

Timothy was secretly happy when he heard this. Timothy had no doubts about Lin Feng's words. As the chairman of the company, Lin Feng did not hesitate to resign for Yang Zhiyuan and Robin Li to save them. As a result, the two

But he defected before the battle. Anyone who encounters this will think of revenge. And the shares in his own hands are naturally the best tool for revenge. Once Lin Feng can successfully control the majority of the shares, he can launch a massive counterattack, drive away Yang Zhiyuan, and regain control of the company.

.

"Mr. Lin, we all understand, so let's not be polite. You should know that 'Microsoft' is also seeking to acquire the company, and most shareholders have reached an agreement with 'Microsoft'. Now you also want to

Acquire the shares in my hand. Everyone is a shareholder, and I will naturally stand firmly on your side. But you also know that I am a small shareholder, and it is difficult to change so many wishes. Of course, if it is for the future of the company,

, I am also willing to help Mr. Lin regain control of the company, but my personal ability is limited after all, so..." Timothy went around and around, meaning to raise the price from the ground up.

Lin Feng snorted coldly in his heart.

"Mr. Timothy, the price offered by 'Microsoft' is US$27 billion to acquire 'Baidu-Yahoo', and the original 3.5% of 'Yahoo' shares in your hand are converted into 'Baidu-Yahoo' shares, which is 1.715%. According to

The price quoted by 'Microsoft' is US$463 million. I'm right!" Lin Feng said after some calculations.

Timothy's face twitched after hearing this. He hated it! The original price for "Microsoft" to acquire "Yahoo" was as high as 49 billion U.S. dollars, and the 3.5% of "Yahoo" in his hands was worth 1.715 billion U.S. dollars. Now it has become "Baidu-Yahoo"

" As a result, not only did the acquisition price of "Microsoft" become lower, but the shares in his hands also shrank, and the value plummeted from US$1.715 billion to US$463 million, a difference of US$1.252 billion!

1.252 billion U.S. dollars! This is 1.252 billion U.S. dollars! - Thinking of this, Timothy's balls ached! And the source of all this is Lin Feng. Thinking of this, Timothy secretly cursed Lin Feng in his heart. Of course,

He could only mutter secretly in his heart and dare not speak out. After all, Lin Feng was now one of the acquirers, and it was also his capital to raise the price. He did not dare to offend Lin Feng now.

"Mr. Timothy, as long as you can convince others to sell their shares of 'Baidu-Yahoo' to me, then I will give you an extra US$10 million in remuneration!" Lin Feng said with a slight smile.

"What! 10 million US dollars!" Timothy's eyes bulged when he heard this.

Of course, this was by no means an expression of excitement from Timothy, but an expression of shock. Although US$10 million is a lot, you must know that the original remuneration offered by "Microsoft" was US$8 million, and now Lin Feng is only better than "Microsoft"

"It's only 2 million US dollars more! This is too little, far lower than Timothy's expectation. In Timothy's opinion, the price of Lin Feng's dismissal is at least 7,000 to 8,000 US dollars more than that of "Microsoft"

Thousands of dollars, but the result is only an extra US$2 million.

"Mr. Lin, you are so insincere!" Timothy's expression changed instantly. He absolutely could not accept Lin Feng's reward, which was like paying a beggar.

"Why, is Timo too young?" Lin Feng smiled slightly.

"Mr. Lin, you are Chinese. You should know that there is an old saying in China that 'odd things can live in.' You are so insincere!" Timothy unexpectedly said the idiom "odd things can live in", which really surprised Lin Feng.

.But considering that Jerry Yang is Chinese, and there are many Chinese in Yahoo, it is not surprising that Timothy, an American, knows one or two Chinese idioms.

"Timothy, I didn't expect that you can also use Chinese idioms, and you also know the idiom "odd goods can live in". But do you know the origin of 'odd goods can live'?" Lin Feng looked at Timothy, who looked puzzled, and smiled and added the idiom "odd goods can live in".

Explained once.

"Timothy, the reason why Lu Buwei was able to become the prime minister of the Qin State with the trick of 'strange goods can live in' was because there was only one 'foreigner' at that time. But now, you are not the only 'foreigner' who owns shares in 'Baidu-Yahoo'

Timothy alone!" Lin Feng said coldly.

Timothy wants to play the game of "rare things to live in", but he will not become his tool of huge profits.

"Mr. Lin, 'Microsoft' has also contacted other shareholders, and these shareholders are all biased towards 'Microsoft'. Without me to help you lobby, they will never compromise." Timothy's face turned cold. If it was just

For $2 million, why should he offend "Microsoft"? In his eyes, the price is at least $20 million higher than "Microsoft's" price. Because he is the soul of the "defector". These people are all under his control.

After much persuasion and lobbying, he decided to sell the company to "Microsoft".

When Lin Feng heard this, he was not surprised and just smiled faintly.

"Timothy, you have to understand that maybe you don't care about the 10 million U.S. dollars, but other people will care. And their appetite shouldn't be as big as Mr. Timothy. Mr. Timothy, you should think about it carefully.

This is my phone number. If you get through, call me." Lin Feng asked Lin Chiling to put down her business card and left Timothy's house without looking back.

What's going on? - Timothy was stunned. He didn't expect that Lin Feng would just leave without giving him a chance to bargain. Is Lin Feng really confident, or is Lin Feng bluffing?

Timothy couldn't see through Lin Feng's move, but he had a backup plan, which was to contact "Microsoft". At first, "Microsoft" did not allow him to contact many shareholders because it was afraid that Lin Feng would incite rebellion against them, but now Lin Feng is

If you want to acquire their shares, that's different.

"Boss, are you sure that Timothy will sell the shares to us?" Lin Chiling asked a little puzzled.

Lin Feng shook his head.

"Then how did you..." Lin Chiling looked surprised. Since Lin Feng didn't confirm, why did he leave Timothy's house so easily?

"Timothy, an old fox, will not give in so easily. He will definitely contact Microsoft. Instead of wasting time on him, it is better to contact other people. Zhiling, you have to understand that in the face of absolute interests,

Any so-called alliance is just a cloud and will disperse with the wind." Lin Feng sighed.

If you want to ask me what my biggest feeling is after rebirth, it is the understanding of interpersonal relationships. Before rebirth, Lin Feng believed that the strongest relationships in the world are friendship, love, and family affection. But after rebirth, he and many

After getting in touch with people from the upper class, they realized that only the combination of interests is the strongest relationship.

"Let's go! Zhiling, go meet those small shareholders and see if their quotations are as big as Timothy's!" Lin Feng got into the car with a smile and asked Li Rui to click on the list provided by Yang Zhiyuan

Many shareholders from near and far began to visit one by one.

And when Lin Feng visited these small shareholders, Timothy had already revealed Lin Feng's intention to "Microsoft".

"Mr. Ballmer, Lin Feng also wants to acquire our shares in Baidu-Yahoo, and the price is high. I think if Microsoft does not increase its offer, those small shareholders will not sell their shares.

said Timothy slyly.

Steve Ballmer is also a veteran, and he knows that Timothy wants to raise the price on the ground, so naturally he will not agree easily.

"Mr. Timothy, we at Microsoft are very optimistic about your company and are very sincere. We also hope that you can mediate in it. After the matter is completed, we will not treat you badly!" Steve Ball

He calmly comforted Timothy.

After hanging up the phone with Timothy, Steve Ballmer convened a small board meeting. Several giants from "Microsoft" came together.

"Everyone, now Lin Feng also wants to acquire the shares held by Timothy and others, should we raise the offer?" Steve Ballmer asked everyone.

Several shareholders frowned when they heard this. Everyone was not stupid, and naturally understood that Timothy wanted to raise the price, and they all criticized Timothy and scolded Timothy for being a philistine.

"Everyone, now is not the time to blame Timothy, but the time to decide whether we will raise the price. You must know that once we own 'Baidu-Yahoo', we 'Microsoft' will be able to compete head-on with 'Google' in the search engine market.

." Steve Ballmer put an end to everyone's complaints and unnecessary criticism.

"Steve, of course we have to raise the offer. After all, our original offer for acquiring 'Yahoo' was US$47.5 billion, and in the end it was raised to US$49 billion. Now the offer for 'Baidu-Yahoo' is only US$27 billion.

, this is absolutely inconsistent with the value of 'Baidu-Yahoo'. It can be said that if we can really acquire 'Baidu-Yahoo' for US$27 billion, then we will definitely make a lot of money. But now that Lin Feng wants to compete with us, then

Let's compete with him. Although Lin Feng is the richest man in the world, his wealth is only personal wealth. He is too young to compete with Microsoft!" - CFO (Chief Financial Officer) of Microsoft

Official) Chris Liddell calmly analyzed.

Everyone nodded. Indeed, the US$27 billion acquisition of "Baidu-Yahoo" is definitely a huge profit. Since we can't take advantage of it now, let's have a real-life competition, and the one with the highest price will win in the end. Everyone

I really don’t believe that Lin Feng still has so much money in his hands that he can fight with “Microsoft”.

After some discussion, everyone finally settled on the highest bid of US$57 billion. The highest bid to acquire "Baidu-Yahoo" was US$57 billion. Any higher, and "Microsoft" would give up. Steve Ballmer would never believe it.

Lin Feng was able to spend so much money to compete with Microsoft, even if Lin Feng only needed to acquire 23.1% of the shares held by Timothy and others.

But after everyone left, Bill Gates stayed.
