Winning the new financial era

Chapter 462 Little Mazi

Mark Elliott Zuckerberg, who Zhang Yida likes to call Xiao Pocky, asked Zhang Yida to meet in New York.

"Mr. Zhang, hello, nice to meet you!"

I have to say that Xiao Mazi's Chinese is not bad, and he has given speeches at Aoki University in Chinese several times.

"Mr. Zugerberg, your Chinese is very good."

"Really? Thank you for your compliment."

Zugerberg smiled, "Actually, it's because my wife is Chinese, and her grandma can't speak English. In order to facilitate communication, I went to learn Chinese."

Zhang Yida smiled, you are really filial!

He didn't believe it would be so simple. Zuckerberg was learning Chinese again, and he came to China to give speeches several times.

The purpose is very clear, that is, to knock on the door of the Chinese market.

But then he really couldn't get it right, and he began to criticize China again: We can have more freedom to express our hearts and stand for the values ​​​​of our beliefs.

His wife, Priscilla Chen, is of Chinese descent, but she is a native American, and even half of her blood is Vietnamese.

Her father is a Chinese-American living in Vietnam. After immigrating to the United States as a refugee in the 70s, he opened a small restaurant with his Vietnamese wife.

Priscilla Chen, who grew up under such family conditions, was admitted to Harvard and married Xiao Mazi, the world's top rich man, which also shattered everyone's glasses.

Finally, everyone began to believe in love again.

"Mr. Zhang, I want to acquire Musical.ly, please make an offer!"

Xiao Mazi's attitude was very straightforward, he talked about acquisitions when he came up, and he almost had the word "rich" written on his face.

"You think I'll sell it?"

Zuckerberg smiled brightly on his pockmarked face, and stopped after a long while. He said solemnly, "I think you will!"

“How come you see?”

Zuckerberg said with a smile: "Just as Facebook cannot enter the Chinese market, a piece of software from China cannot be rampant in the West."

"However, it is really rampant in the East and West!"

Zuckerberg smiled and shook his head, "It's all temporary. I heard that there are already organizations targeting you."

Zhang Yida laughed and said, "That's just scratching the surface. We're not afraid of any lawsuits."

Zuckerberg seemed to be really not afraid to see Zhang Yida, which surprised him a little.

Is the ZTE incident not enough lessons for Chinese companies?

But he didn't want to rely on this "intimidation" to let Zhang Yida sell the company to him, he still has a backup.

"Facebook plans to launch its own short video, and the name has been chosen, called Lasso."

"Really?" Zhang Yida smiled, "I welcome it very much. The more partners you join, the more prosperous the industry will be."

Zugerberg felt a little absurd, did the person in front of him eat a bear's heart and a leopard's guts?I don't know how to be afraid at all.

Don't you really feel that you are worth 700 billion and you are fearless?

"Facebook's four main products add up to 40 billion monthly active users."

Zugerberg also focused on "40 billion" to strengthen the tone.

"I know," Zhang Yida nodded, "Facebook is a Silicon Valley giant."

"Now that you know it, you should understand the power of Facebook. Once we launch our own short videos, Musical.ly's slight lead will disappear."

Zuckerberg said with a smile: "There is an old saying in China that those who know current affairs are Junjie.

The government may crack down on Musical.ly, while also facing competition from Facebook.

Oh, by the way, it's not just us, I heard that Spiegel's nasty guy is also planning to enter the short video to join in the fun.

Youtube and some other companies are eyeing the short video field.

This kind of situation, what is it called in China..."

Zuckerberg shook his head, "Oh, yes, it's called Flying Daggers!"

Zhang Yida smiled, it seems that he is really good at learning Chinese, he can use such advanced vocabulary.

Seeing Zhang Yida smile, Zuckerberg thought that Zhang Yida had listened to it, and hit the rails while it was still hot: "Sell Musical.ly, it is now at a high price!
When companies such as Youtube launch their own short videos, Musical.ly will not be worth so much money. "

Zhang Yida pretended to be very conflicted, "But I think Musical.ly users are still growing rapidly, with more than 5000 million users per month.

It may be worth more if you hold it in your hand for a few more months. "

"Mr. Zuckerberg, how about this, you launch the product first, if the development is not smooth, we will talk about cooperation."

Zuckerberg sneered twice, pretending to be crazy with him here, and when our products are launched, then buy some wool.

"Mr. Zhang, I don't want to make these unnecessary explanations,"

Zuckerberg shook his head, "Now please give me a clear answer, would you like to sell Musical.ly?"

Zhang Yida stopped teasing Xiao Mazi, and said happily, "I will disappoint Mr. Zuckerberg. I will not sell the company."

Zuckerberg's face is livid. This is not the first time he has encountered this situation.

The last person to turn him down was that obnoxious Spiegel, the founder of Sharab.

Now I ran into another Zhang Yida, who was as odious as Spiegel, and had no discernment at all.

Zuckerberg decided to try one last time, and said with a straight face: "$100 billion, whether it's cash or Facebook stock.

I hope that Mr. Zhang will consider it carefully, because after this village, there will be no such shop. "

Zhang Yida was not moved at all, and said with a smile: "Thank you Mr. Zuckerberg for your generosity. Compared with money, I still like the passion that entrepreneurship brings to me."

Zuckerberg shook his head, too lazy to say more.

He believes that time will tell everything, and he wonders if Zhang Yi will regret it when he arrives.

……

After breaking up with Zuckerberg, Zhang Yida came to Silicon Valley to inspect Green Company.

Huang Xiaofeng accompanied Zhang Yida for a stroll around the company, then came to his office, and had a cordial conversation with Zhang Yida.

"How is it? Get used to the life here in Silicon Valley!"

Huang Xiaofeng smiled, "Fortunately, there's nothing I'm not used to."

After Huimin Travel was acquired by Didi, Huang Xiaofeng took over the work and came to the United States to serve as the president of Green Company.

Green's company has long been limited to doing business in the United States, and has developed in Europe and South America.

The tense work rhythm and the new working environment made Huang Xiaofeng feel both exciting and uneasy.

He was worried because he was afraid that he would not be qualified for the position of president and would be ashamed of Mr. Zhang's kind treatment.

Many things here in the United States are different from those in China, such as employee thinking and working atmosphere.

However, after a period of running-in and learning, he began to gradually adapt to the work here.

So now he said it easily, but only he knew how much effort he had put in behind it.

Zhang Yida patted him on the shoulder and said thank you.
