MTL - Back To 1995-Chapter 45 This rookie is a bit fierce
Chapter 45 This rookie is a bit fierce
Now the technical team under Wesley can only be considered qualified, to be honest, it is no problem to maintain the system or upgrade some functions, but it is difficult to expect to develop two software in a short time in a row.
Song Yang didn't have much time to waste. He launched the Hotmail mailbox. Song Yang was going to make the plate quickly, and then find a big money owner, take off his gloves and show it immediately. It is impossible to waste too much time.
It's not impossible to recruit a team now, but to select people, or even poach people from Silicon Valley, let's not talk about the cost, just to run it in, I'm afraid it will take another month, and finally launch the mailbox, a year and a half. It is possible that Song Yang could not have spent that long.
Song Yang was silent for a while, and suddenly his eyes lit up. He thought of a person. If he were to be brought into the Hotmail mailbox project, there would be no problem with manpower or technology. Maybe even the funding issue would not need Song Yang's side. bother.
"You said, if you find Jotus and cooperate with him on Hotmail?" Song Yang said.
Hearing the mention of Jotus, Greck, Irene, and Wesley were all stunned for a moment, and then suddenly thought that this proposal did not seem unfeasible.
Wang An Company has technology, talents and funds. If we cooperate with Wang An Company, the development of Hotmail mailboxes will not be a problem at all.
"I will call Jotus, Wesley, you need to recruit people, and set up a technical team to develop the ICQ project!"
Song Yang said to Wesley that the benefits of Silicon Valley can be seen at this time. In Silicon Valley, there is no need to worry about technical talents. As long as you give money, you can pull out a team in the blink of an eye. It's not impossible to invite over.
In the small office, Song Yang discussed some details with Greck and Wesley. The instant messaging and e-mail projects, Song Yang will be placed in the newly established company, completely separated from the Double-click company, and the patents naturally belong to the new company. .
This time, Song Yang asked Greck to formulate a perfect agreement, and even paid for legal experts who are familiar with the Internet to come. Song Yang doesn't want to do it again for Jayden!
"Martin Solo wouldn't be so happy if he knew!"
After was confirmed, Irene said, if Sir Martin knew that Song Yang had just invested in Double Click Company, Song Yang would stand on his own. With Martin's strong character, he would definitely not be happy.
"Double-click the company has given WPP Group enough returns!"
Song Yang just replied casually, to be honest, the more than ten million dollars that Martin gave to Double Click Company is really crucial to Song Yang.
But Double-click Company has also given WPP Group an excessive return. Not to mention that after the investment, WPP's stock price has been soaring. It is said that Double-click Company is now negotiating an equity exchange with Yahoo. Once the exchange is successful, then this piece of fat will have future WPP Group can also get a quarter. Double-click investment will definitely be one of the most proud investments in the life of Martin, the king of mergers and acquisitions!
When Greck, Wesley and the others got up and left, Irene said to Song Yang, "I told Yahoo that it was interesting to exchange shares, but Yahoo didn't directly refuse!"
Song Yang nodded and didn't directly reject it, which meant there was some talk. After all, Yahoo is not going to exist in a few years. Although he got 100 million dollars, he still felt guilty. He was the most important partner now. Double-click the company, and dare not offend easily.
After a moment's thought, Song Yang picked up the phone, and Brady's voice came from the other end of the phone. He was obviously busy when listening to the noise on the phone.
When Brady saw the call from Song Yang, he knew what Song Yang was going to say, and said directly to the phone, "Song, I talked to Yang and Feiro about this, and Yahoo is willing to deepen the relationship with Double Click Company. Cooperation, we are brother companies!"
"Double-click is also very happy, to have a collaborator like Yahoo," Song Yang asked when he heard Brady's words, "What exchange does Yahoo want?"
Now, after all, Yahoo's valuation has far exceeded Double-click, and the Double-click company took the lead in proposing to exchange shares, and Yahoo's side will definitely take the initiative.
"5% of Yahoo's equity, double-click to get 20% of the equity, double-click to add a sum of not less than five million dollars in cash!"
"Yahoo! Is this robbery?!"
After listening to Brady's condition, Song Yang couldn't help but scolded, this condition is not cheap at all, Yahoo is catching a double-click and wants to bite hard.
"Song, this is fair," Brady called out Song Yang's name several times on the phone, "You know that Yahoo now needs to consider the opinions of investors such as Softbank and Sequoia, and exchange equity with Double-click. I finally got SoftBank to agree to talk!"
Now that Yahoo has a major shareholder, it is no longer possible to decide the future period of Yahoo after consultation with Yang Zhiyuan, Ferro, Brady and others. Now a decision needs to be approved by the major shareholder Softbank. Row.
Although 's words were true, Song Yang was not fooled by these words. Now that Yahoo has not been listed, he does not believe that Yang Zhiyuan's group of founders are made of mud.
"You have to explain to SoftBank, and I also have to explain to WPP Group. If Martin knew that I agreed to this condition, do you think he would fly over from London with a team of lawyers?!" Song Yang said not to be outdone, and The WPP Group moved out and told Brady that there was someone on him too.
There was a slight silence on the other end of the phone. It was obvious that Brady was discussing with Yang Zhiyuan, Ferro and others.
After a while, the voice came out on the phone again, "These conditions are fair, based on the valuation of Double Click Company!"
"You know that the valuation of Double-click is more than that. Next year, Double-click will be able to make a profit." Song Yang said, no matter whether Double-click is better than Yahoo, the battle cannot be lost at this time.
Brady chatted with Song Yang for a few more sentences, his tone was slightly loose, and finally said, "Song, if you really want to talk about this matter, come to Mountain View, Silicon Valley, and bring a lawyer!"
After hung up the phone, Song Yang felt that there was a drama in this matter. Listening to Brady's words, Song Yang vaguely felt that Yahoo also seemed to be asking for Double-click, and letting Song Yang go to Silicon Valley meant that Yahoo was willing to make concessions.
After calling Yahoo, Song Yang pressed another number again.
When Jotus received the call, he was very surprised. He didn't expect Song Yang to call him, "Song?!"
"To be honest, this call is a little bit beyond my expectations!" Joe Tus said with a smile on the other end of the phone. He seems to have let go of the previous interception, and apparently acquired the Olidihua software business and let Joe Tus was quite pleased.
"I said, my previous cooperation with you, President Jotus, will not end easily!"
Song Yang said to Joetus on the phone, "I think your team may still lack a best rookie."
These words made Joetus a little interested, and a thought came up in his mind, but he still said, "It seems Song, do you have a new plan?"
"There is a new plan, a new product that is absolutely different from any e-mail products on the market now. I don't know President Jotus, are you interested?"
The person on the other end of the phone was obviously thinking about it. In fact, Chotus was a little surprised. He knew that Song Yang was touted by the media as a genius of the Internet. He thought of a way to solve the problem of Internet profitability after just one look at TV. A few programming books to build an official website and the like.
Jotus has also seen those geniuses with his own eyes, but most of them are just rumors. Like Song Yang, it seems that he is going to continuously launch new creative and new industries.
"Of course Wang An's company is interested in investing. Which team can refuse to win a Rookie of the Year?"
Jotus said directly, "What do you need Song?"
"Technical talents, some patents for e-mail and some funds!" Song Yang was not polite at all. Anyway, the funds were made up and they were taken from Joetus.
After Jotus heard it, he also said, "You will get these, and I will personally go to Houston!"
After hung up the phone, Song Yang breathed a sigh of relief, changed his shareholding with Yahoo, and the Hotmail mailbox, he finally got his eyes on it. After these two things were done, the next thing would be much easier.
In the evening, Song Yang drove a new car and returned to the community where Gleick's home was with a big bag and a small bag of Irene to buy a prepared gift.
When the roar of the Ferrari F50 sounded in this community, it still attracted a lot of attention. When they saw Song Yang who drove this car, the young men and women in the community said it was fake if they were not jealous. of a sports car.
And those middle-aged people, etc., although they scolded that they would not learn well if they had money, but they were very envious of Gleick. Who knew that Gleick, an old man who had reached a mid-life crisis, would actually be able to function in middle age.
Community neighbors who are familiar with Gleick, they have heard that Gleick has become a partner of Josiah Law Firm, and may become the legal president of a listed company in the future. Gleick has really turned over, and will continue to do so in the future Become a member of the upper class that they used to "disgust"...
Gailuo came back with Song Yang. Da Anna, who opened the door, saw Song Yang and Gallo coming back together, and immediately called out to heaven, and then dragged Song Yang and Gallo into the house.
"You two know how to come back?!"
Da Anna was of course happy when Song Yang and Gallo came back, but she still complained, "Gallo, you haven't come back for a long time, the last time I saw you, I went to your broken apartment to clean your room, and Song, I heard from Greg, you rented an apartment, what do you all want, don't you want to stay here?!"
Listening to Da Anna's chatter, Song Yang and Gallo were both used to it. Gallo sat on the sofa, picked up a piece of fruit and ate it, "You know we're busy these days!"
