Rebirth of the internet boss
Chapter 417 Ambitious
Chapter 417 Ambitious
"Page, I know you know Leo from Fengrui. Do you have any thoughts on Fengrui's acquisition of shares in Google by selling YouTube, or Leo?"
It's just that in the face of Eric Schmidt's inquiry, Larry Page was completely indifferent. Even after Schmidt asked again, Larry Page didn't respond.
When I took a closer look, I found that Larry Page was playing games with his mobile phone. Not only did Eric Schmidt not respond to this, but the other directors also took it for granted.
Because everyone has long been used to it, Larry Page either turned on his laptop or fiddled with the computer during the meeting.
But people have never blamed Larry Page, except that he is the founder of Google, mainly because he has always been such a person, a typical technical geek, obsessed with technology, introverted, and always scoffs at "meetings".
It is also because of his personality that Google's board of directors did not let him be the CEO, and chose the more mature and stable Eric Schmidt.
In fact, Larry Page is very similar to Steve Jobs.
Everyone knows the story of Steve Jobs, who was fired from the company he founded, Apple, returned after decades of exile, and saved the company.
But few people understand that Apple's board of directors and investors fired Jobs at the time was a very correct decision.Early in his career, Jobs was capricious and selfish, prone to destruction.
After leaving Apple, he realized his shame and courage, achieved a second success at Pixar, and then became a mature leader.After returning to Apple, he led Apple's development into the most valuable company in the world.
Larry Page is Google's Steve Jobs, but Larry Page is not as radical as Jobs.
Like Jobs, Page had another co-founder, Sergey Brin, but Page has been the real visionary and driving force of the company.
Just as Apple investors kicked Jobs out of the house, Google investors didn't honor Page's wishes, forcing him to hire a CEO to enforce adult supervision.
Later, both of them experienced a long period of being lost.Steve Jobs' exile was more severe, but Page also stayed out of Google's day-to-day work for several years.
Like Jobs, Page matured into his own strengths and weaknesses only after a long period of exile.Later, like Jobs, Page returned to the company with ambition and determination.
This is the story of the previous life. If Li Feng did not appear, this may be the story of this life, but it is different now. Perhaps because of Li Feng's butterfly effect, Larry Page also intervened in Google's management prematurely.
Facing the dazed Larry Page, Eric Schmidt was not angry at all. He just asked again. Schmidt was always so patient, as if he would never get angry.
After Schmidt asked three times in a row, Larry Page reacted, but there was almost no expression on his face. He just put down the mobile phone in his hand, and after thinking about it, he used his signature calm, robotic tone, and The voice was very hoarse.
Larry Page was wearing jeans, running shoes, a black zip-up cardigan top over a plain T-shirt, and he had bushy eyebrows that were now full of black and white hair.
And because he suffered from a rare symptom of "vocal cord paralysis" a few years ago, although he has recovered now, his voice has also become hoarse, and he never raises the volume.
"In fact, I have only met Leo a few times, most of which were when we were studying and communicating at Stanford University. Although we communicated for a short time, I also know that he is a very visionary and strategic entrepreneur.
Just look at his investment in Silicon Valley. Now the best Facebook is actually created by him. He is the absolute major shareholder. Zuckerberg is just a puppet he pushed to the front;
There is also YouTube, which Google wants to acquire now, as well as LinkedIn and Twitter, which are now on fire. He is an investment... It is enough to prove that he has a forward-looking vision,
And I think he is an ambitious entrepreneur with a strong desire for control. You can tell if he wants a seat on our Google board of directors, and I also know that it seems that the companies he invests in want a seat on the board of directors. "
"Does Leo now want a seat on our Google board of directors and treat us as a startup company, but what does Page think Leo or Fengrui needs?" Eric Schmidt asked with a smile.
"I don't know what he wants, and I'm not a roundworm in his stomach, but I can guess a little bit. Since he asks for a board seat, he just wants to indirectly ask Google to do something, or to cooperate with him?" Larry Page said hoarsely.
"Do you have any guesses?" Eric Schmidt asked.
"This is it!" Larry Page directly put the mobile phone he was playing the game on the office.
Everyone sees that this is not Apple's iPhone? !
Moreover, this is a secret project that Apple asked Google to cooperate in the development of mobile phone applications. The iPhone has not yet been launched. It is said that Jobs will hold a grand press conference next month to officially announce this mobile phone.
Eric Schmidt took Apple's iPhone and asked wonderingly: "Does Fengrui want to enter the mobile phone? What does this have to do with our Google!"
"It's probably not this, it should be in the software field, more specifically the mobile operating system field." Larry Page said affirmatively.
"How can you be so sure?" Eric Schmidt asked.
"Because he, Leo, asked me more than once in a roundabout way about the development progress of the Apple mobile phone, but I rejected it. I didn't tell him anything, but judging by his expression, he probably knew the same thing.
Moreover, Fengrui also acquired a small company called "Android" in Silicon Valley two years ago. class. ’ Larry Page explained.
"Does this Fengrui still want to be the Microsoft of the mobile phone industry? Is it possible!" Eric Schmidt said in surprise.
He can't imagine that there is a Huaxia company that wants to make a mobile phone operating system. There are so many mobile phone operating systems now, almost every mobile phone has an operating system. It is impossible to have a unified mobile phone operating system. The hottest is still Nokia's Symbian system.
"I don't know his true thoughts, but what I can guarantee is that he is very interested in the mobile phone operating system, because he mentioned it to me more than once." Larry Page said affirmatively.
Eric Schmidt thought for a while, and then said to Larry Page: "No matter what purpose he has for Fengrui, the acquisition of YouTube is our top priority now. It seems that I have to go to China too, so that Come on, Paige, since you are more familiar with this Li Feng, you should run with me too!"
