After rebirth, I became very good

Chapter 158 King versus King

Time has come unknowingly to spring, the season when grass grows and orioles fly. It has been half a year since Xu Mo and the others entered college. They have also adapted to their new lives. After the fresh period when they first entered college, in fact, Every day in college is pretty much the same. It’s just time to go to class. When I’m not in class, I play games in the dormitory, or chat with my girlfriend.

Since that night, Tong Xue and Xu Mo could really pretend that nothing had happened. She was still the serious and rigorous female secretary.

But Xu Mo is still the promising young man full of ambition. Shortly after returning from Shanghai, the blog contacted Xu Mo and expressed that they were willing to exchange stocks with Xu Mo, but 10% would be exchanged for 2%. Ten is impossible. If Xu Mo is really willing, then ten percent of Black Panther's technology will be replaced by fifteen percent.

Xu Mo bargained to 8% for 15%, and needed to have certain decision-making power.

The blogger side was obviously at the end of its tether, and finally agreed to Xu Mo's request.

After Xu Mo took over the blog, he immediately opened a studio to develop new projects, still focusing on instant messaging, but this time, he developed a mobile phone software based on the blog, and the name was already given. It’s called Weibo!

Compared with blogs, Weibo is more convenient and more casual. You can express your mood anytime and anywhere, and you can also record your life anytime and anywhere. Of course, the most important thing is that in Weibo, you can get up close and personal with people you have never seen before. star!

Xu Mo spent about 2007 million to develop the Weibo software. Not only did he spend money on promotion, but most of the money was actually used to find celebrities to settle in. It was just as good as Weibo in his previous life. In the early stage, he recruited people in various ways. , advertise, and invite leading figures from all walks of life to join Weibo. For example, in 2007, one of the most popular female celebrities is called Liu Yifei. I went to Liu Yifei specifically to ask her to register an account on Weibo, and gave her celebrity certification. It’s not just Liu Yifei. Anyway, in , any celebrity who could be named was invited to Weibo, and they had to sponsor popular TV series and hold question-answering activities. For example, after an episode of TV series was finished, they would say log in to Weibo. Bet, answer questions with celebrities, and win millions in gifts.

In this way, in just two months, through the star effect and the fans attracted from the blog, the number of Weibo registered people reached 20 million.

Of course, this is also due to 360. Although Weibo belongs to Xu Mo personally, Qihu and Penguin are now at loggerheads. When Xu Mo engages in Weibo, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is a sword aimed at Penguin, which is Xu Mo's. Mo’s big brother, how could Qihoo not help out? Surely all its software will be promoted on Weibo.

Zhou Hongyi even used the bundled installation trick again, so that users must bring Weibo with them when downloading its software.

And some netizens just want to watch the fun, thinking that you, Penguin, are too stupid. Now that they have developed another communication software, then we should all use Weibo, no need to be a penguin!

For a time, Penguin's stock situation took a turn for the worse and reached a new low in the Xiangjiang market. Xu Mo asked Cheng Xiaoman to contact Mr. Li to see if he had any idea of ​​exchanging shares.

Mr. Li saw that the stock price was getting lower and lower, but the value of Black Panther Technology was getting higher and higher. He hesitated a little and said that he had 2% of Penguin shares in his hand and asked to replace Xu Mo's 10% share. Black Panther Technology.

Xu Mo agreed without even thinking!

When the news spread, everyone was stunned.

You know, Penguin is in internal and external troubles at this time, and Brother Ma is also having a headache. He just wants to get a piece of the free anti-virus software market.

I didn't expect Boss Zhou to resist so fiercely, but this is secondary.

Xu Mo, a dark horse, wanted to start a social platform and Weibo. Wouldn't that mean going directly to his own base camp? This gave Xiao Ma a bit of a headache. As a result, at this time, Xu Mo suddenly switched to buying his own stocks?

This made Brother Ma confused at first, but he soon understood. This showed that Xu Mo and Boss Zhou were not the same kind of people. Xu Mo was not a lunatic like Boss Zhou at all. There was a chance for cooperation between the two parties.

So as the executive director, Brother Xiao called Xu Mo, the new shareholder, and the two parties exchanged feelings. Brother Xiao said that if Mr. Xu wanted to invest in Penguin, he should have told him earlier.

"I am also very optimistic about the development of Black Panther. If Mr. Xu is willing, I would like to buy some shares of Black Panther." Xiao Ma said straight to the point.

Xu Mo said: "The last time President Zhou invested in Black Panther Technology was half a year ago. To be honest, I don't know what the current value of Black Panther is."

Brother Ma thought for a while and said: "The total value of Penguin in the Hong Kong stock market is now about 5 billion. The replacement ratio between you and Mr. Li is 1:20, so I will calculate it for you based on billion. I want % of the shares, what do you think?"

Six months ago, 360% of Xu Mo's shares were sold for only million, but now % of the shares can be sold for million. The price has risen six times. The reason why it has risen so fast is that Boss Zhou is among them. You must know that Qihoo has been sparing no effort to promote ​​in the past six months.

The price of 200 million is very exciting, but Xu Mo can't decide on this matter. He still has to discuss it with Boss Zhou.

But through this call, it can be seen that the attitude between Xu Mo and Xiao Ma is very ambiguous, and the two families are not hostile.

Even in May, Xu Mo showed up in Shenzhen as a shareholder and had a pleasant chat with Xiao Ma at the venue.

This made Xu Mo's big brother, Boss Zhou, very unhappy.

Even a little unhappy, but because Qihoo now relies on 360, there is no attack. However, this incident made Zhou Hongyi understand one thing. Someone else’s son was not well-raised. At that time, he was anxious to develop the 360 ​​browser, thinking I was using Black Panther Technology for the time being, but I didn’t expect Black Panther Technology to sell it as soon as it said it would.

Xu Mo's sale of shares would not have any impact on Boss Zhou, but he felt a little unhappy.

So he took the initiative to call and ask Xu Mo if he had fun in Shenzhen.

Xu Mo was very embarrassed when he received this call, but he still laughed and said: "Brother Zhou, it's better to dissolve enemies than to make enemies. I made an agreement with Brother Ma yesterday. Brother Ma's current focus is not on anti-virus software. It's just that the people below are ignorant and made an anti-virus software. I didn't expect you to have such a big reaction, Brother Zhou. Brother Ma promised me last night that he will not get involved in anti-virus in the future, and he plans to buy it for 600 million. We have 10% of Black Panther Technology’s shares, Brother Ma, let’s see if you want to sell some of it.”

At this time, Zhou Hongyi no longer wanted to let the Black Panther Technology family dominate, so the 35% of the shares in his hands had become worthless. In half a year, he made six times the profit, which can be regarded as a return of capital, with a slight gain. surplus.

Zhou Hongyi was a little angry at first, but when he heard what Xu Mo said, he pondered for a moment and asked, "How much are you prepared to pay?"

"I only have 50% in hand now. It depends on how much you offer, Brother Zhou. I can just add a little here."

Fifty percent?

In other words, after this transaction, Xu Mo owns less than half of the shares, and he still owns 35% of the shares. In addition, Mr. Li of Xiangjiang and Blog’s holdings, then he owns You can be on par with Xu Mo.

"Brother, since you want to sell, I won't stop you. I just want to remind you that the old guy is very shady, so be careful." Zhou Hongyi finally said.

"Brother Zhou, aren't you going to sell it? Brother Ma said, they will take whatever amount we pay."

"Forget it, I don't like doing business with people like him." Zhou Hongyi sneered.

So Xu Mo cashed out 10% again and gained 200 million.

Xu Mo currently only owns 40% of Black Panther Technology, has opened a new Weibo company, 2% of Penguin, and 15% of Blog.

After the two parties reached a deal, Penguin and Qihoo ceased operations for a short period of time, and Penguin and 360 can be downloaded at the same time on one computer.

There is no winner or loser in this war. If there must be a vested beneficiary, Xu Mo should be regarded as a vested beneficiary. He not only took advantage of the downturn in Penguin's stock price to obtain 2% of the shares, but also took advantage of both. The discord started a Weibo community.

Brother Xiao Ma is a big business person, but he doesn't care about this small community. After acquiring the shares of Black Panther Technology, he even generously helped Weibo to launch a push.

At that time, every time you logged in to Penguin, the Penguin News Network would be displayed. After Xu Mo and Xiao Ma reached a cooperation, this news network would have a direct hyperlink to Weibo in the upper right corner.

Of course, Xu Mo did not say that there was no loss at all in this turmoil.

At least in Boss Zhou's opinion, Xu Mo is young, but his scheming is more ruthless than many others. Xu Mo has completely treated himself like a monkey this time, and he spared no effort to promote him Weibo, but later he ended up getting together with his enemy.

After this incident, Zhou Hongyi gradually ignored Xu Mo.

Some of his subordinates suggested that Black Panther Technology should be kicked off and make direct anti-virus software, but Zhou Hongyi said that it was not necessary. The anti-virus software itself is free and does not make money.

We should look to other areas.

The popularity of Weibo actually reflects that people are now more willing to use mobile phones to browse the Internet. In other words, the future is the era of mobile Internet.

At this time, major companies have begun to shift their energy to the mobile Internet position, and the concept of smartphones has also been proposed. Penguin and the others have begun to research mobile Internet apps. In addition to working on the 360 ​​browser, Zhou Hongyi has also begun to contact representatives from the south. factory, preparing to build a smartphone brand of its own. Three months later, Tong Xue followed Xu Mo to many places, but except for that night, the two never had a relationship. In the eyes of others, Xu Mo not only had a smooth career, but also treated Gu Yuxin wholeheartedly.

In fact, seeing Xu Mo getting better and better, how could Tong Xue say that she had no feelings in her heart? Girls and boys are still different. Most girls still value their first time. Zhang Ailing once said that xx is a common thing. The road to a woman's heart excludes women who have walked this road thousands of times.

Only Xu Mo has walked Tong Xue's path.

I must have strange feelings for Xu Mo in my heart.

In fact, during the subsequent relationship, Tong Xue tried to give Xu Mo a chance to have fun with her again, but Xu Mo turned a blind eye. Even when he went on a business trip, he deliberately emphasized that he wanted to book two rooms.

As his career expanded, Xu Mo recruited more and more part-time students in the school's studio. Now there are more than a dozen of them. Xu Mo and Tong Xue are busy in the studio every day.

Gu Yuxin would occasionally come to visit the class. It happened that Xu Mo opened a cafe for Gu Yuxin in the school. Gu Yuxin would occasionally bring a small cake to express condolences to the employees in the studio.

At this time, Xu Mo would stand up and say, "Okay, since the boss lady is here to visit the class, I allow you to rest for half an hour. Remember, it's only half an hour!"

After Xu Mo finished speaking, there was a burst of cheers from the crowd, and then he thanked the proprietress.

"Ah, the boss lady is so nice."

"I wonder what kind of luck the boss has to find such a good boss lady."

Gu Yuxin felt embarrassed after hearing the compliment. She pursed her lips with a smile and stood behind Xu Mo.

Xu Mo didn't care about the flattery of these employees and dragged Gu Yuxin to the office.

The wall of Xu Mo's office was made of transparent glass, so everyone could see what Xu Mo was doing there. However, in the office, Gu Yuxin was holding a matcha-flavored cake for Xu Mo to eat with a smile on her face. She said this was her new cake and asked Xu Mo to have a taste.

Xu Mo opened his mouth and took a bite, then smacked his mouth and said the taste was okay.

"You eat too."

The two fed each other cake in the office.

Such an affectionate look made the employees outside envious.

And Tong Xue felt a little jealous for no reason as she saw the two of them getting along so well.

But Tong Xue had no right to be jealous at all. Everything was Tong Xue's choice. It was her own choice not to follow Xu Mo. She also said that she did it willingly that night, and it was useless to regret it now.

If she went to Xu Mo now to act recklessly, it would probably only make Xu Mo look down on her even more.

So no matter how much dissatisfaction there is in my heart, I can only hold it in silently.

As Xu Mo's secretary, Tong Xue's job is quite complicated. Not only does she have to help with the studio affairs, she also occasionally goes to the coffee shop to help, so she has a relatively good relationship with Gu Yuxin.

On this day, Tong Xue followed Gu Yuxin to the shopping mall outside to buy coffee beans and some raw materials for desserts. The two of them bought a lot in large and small bags. Tong Xue said that you should call Xu Mo for these physical tasks.

But Gu Yuxin just smiled and said it was not necessary.

"He is busy with his career now, so forget it if I can't help him. How could I bother him?" Gu Yuxin said.

Tong Xue just remained silent after hearing this. She thought to herself, even if you do this, you can't help him. Even you are not as useful to him as I am.

"By the way, Senior Tong Xue, let me buy you something to drink!" Gu Yuxin said proactively in order to thank Tong Xue for accompanying her out shopping today.

So the two of them had a simple drink in the mall outside.

At this moment, a tall and beautiful woman in fashionable clothes walked past the door of the store.

Gu Yuxin was originally quite happy, with a smile on her face all the time. But when she saw the person walking past the door, she was stunned and hurriedly chased him out.

However, the familiar figure just now has long since disappeared.

Seeing the panic on Gu Yuxin's face, Tong Xue asked strangely, "What's wrong?"

"No, it's nothing." Gu Yuxin actually saw Qi Wenwen just now, but Gu Yuxin felt that she didn't recognize her even if she told Tong Xue.

So when having dinner with Xu Mo in the evening, Gu Yuxin told Xu Mo about this matter.

Xu Mo was originally in a good mood. He has been very nourished recently. He has Qi Wenwen and Gu Yuxin, and occasionally flies to the capital to accompany Cheng Xiaoman. However, Gu Yuxin suddenly said to him with a solemn face today: "I was in the mall today, it seems. I met Wenwen."

Xu Mo's smile froze, and he asked calmly: "Wenwen? What Wenwen?"

"It's Qi Wenwen, I think I saw her in the mall!" Gu Yuxin said firmly.

Xu Mo didn't know how to answer this for a while: "Oh, really? Did you see it wrong? Isn't she abroad?"

"It's not wrong! I'm sure of it!" However, Gu Yuxin was very determined at this time.

At this time, Xu Mo's expression was also a little solemn. He wanted to tell Gu Yuxin everything, but knowing Gu Yuxin's temper, Xu Mo really didn't dare. He couldn't say that Wenwen was actually in China all the time, and we were still in contact.

Xu Mo was thinking of finding a chance to have a showdown with Gu Yuxin in the future.

But she never thought that Gu Yuxin would meet Qi Wenwen one day.

It was a little embarrassing now. It was not okay to admit that he had been in contact with Qi Wenwen, but it was not okay to just pretend to be stupid.

"Husband, are you still in contact with Wenwen online?" At this time, Gu Yuxin asked Xu Mo another question that she didn't know how to answer.

This.
