Age of Dreams

Xiao Qi never thought that Paul Allen was such a refreshing person.

After only considering more than a day, Paul Allen called Xiao Qi himself and agreed to the price offered by Xiao Qi.

In addition to his previous proposal of 3.8 billion U.S. dollars in cash and all the shares sold to Xiao Qi at a price of 1 U.S. dollars, he also transferred his 300-acre ranch near Wellington, New Zealand to Xiao Qi at a low price of 2 million U.S. dollars. Qi; at a price of 300 million US dollars, 18% of the shares of Cameron Pace Group Inc. were transferred to Xiao Qi.

Converted to the unit of measurement in China, the pasture is 1,800 acres, which is very large.

In his previous life, Xiao Qi saw an introduction about this ranch on the Internet. There was actually a building in it. The scenery alone was beautiful.

It's not surprising that Paul Allen is a person who loves to enjoy, what is the difference in the ranch he bought?

2 million US dollars is just a friendly price, and this ranch is also worth at least 5 million US dollars.

The ranch employs more than 100 people on weekdays, and manages the ups and downs of the ranch, including raising dairy cows, beef cattle, sheep, etc., which are all sold, which can be regarded as a balance of expenses.

As for Cameron Pace Group’s shares, 18% is a bit lower, but Xiao Qi is not trying to control the entire company. Cameron and his good friend Pace have gone through hard research and development and promotion. In the harvest season, it is absolutely impossible to transfer the company's shares to others.

What Xiao Qi wants is the display of 3D technology in the cinema to make the movie queen sister's kiwi theater line grow stronger. The identity of the third largest shareholder of Cameron Pace Group is very convenient to get the latest and greatest. 3d technology.

Once 3d technology and imax technology merge, it will be invincible!

Same as imax. When Xiao Qi changed hands, he transferred the cinema chain and Cameron Pace Group's shares to Xiaoqiao Investment Fund. These things must be integrated to be powerful. Qiao Guoer has these two key technologies in his hands. In the future, Ten years in the theaters have been very profitable.

It's not that Xiao Qi loves the Queen's sister so much that she gave her more than 2 billion dollars in assets in one breath, but the opportunity has come. Then don't miss it.

In the future, there will be some properties suitable for her wives, and Xiao Qi will not be stingy to buy them for them.

In fact, Paul Allen and Xiao Qi are friends. When buying small islands in the Maldives, Ellison asked the wealthy Americans to buy them together. Among them, Paul Allen came to participate.

However, he and Xiao Qi had no business connection, so he found a more suitable middleman, Bloomberg, for Xiang, so that even if the two sides have any differences, they can successfully match up through the middleman.

It looks now. Paul Allen's strategy obviously succeeded.

Of course Xiao Qi didn't suffer. Not only did he get rid of his success, but he also got a lot of things he needed. It can be said that everyone is happy.

As soon as the settlement procedures here were completed, Paul Allen immediately arrived in Seattle and held a grand press conference.

In a meeting with more than 200 reporters present, Paul Allen announced with great vigor that he will return to the Microsoft board of directors in the near future. And he brought an "unrefusable gift" to Microsoft, that is under his active operation. Microsoft will acquire the company wholly-owned by Xiao Qi at an ultra-low price of US$6 billion.

The reporters were making a noise.

Although the company is a declining giant, it still carries the memories of many Americans as a model of the American dream and an icon of the Internet age.

Moreover, it is not completely finished now, even if it has been stripped of many assets by Xiao Qi. It still has a large number of users, many branches and patented technologies, especially in terms of online search and online advertising. They are much worse than emerging ones, but they are definitely second in the world.

What Microsoft lacks is its efforts in online search and advertising. And many of the Internet-related patents in his hand are in short supply by Microsoft, which was previously a software service provider.

Otherwise, why was Microsoft willing to buy at a price as high as US$44.6 billion last year?

Well now, Paul Allen bought it at a very low price of 6 billion US dollars as soon as he sold it. What a beautiful business!

Under the fusion with Microsoft, under the circumstances of mutual benefit, it is a great shock to think about it.

But be careful in the future, the position of its number one overlord is definitely going to be greatly challenged!

Buying a company from Xiao Qi is not cheap, nor is it easy to buy.

Some of the companies that Xiao Qi sold before were all sold at jaw-dropping high prices, and they were known as extremely greedy merchants.

Some time ago, there were people who wanted to buy the company. The price offered was 50, 6 or 7 billion, but Xiao Qi never agreed.

It is said that his psychological price is 8 billion US dollars.

Although this price is a bit high, with the overall recovery of the U.S. stock market, the valuation has also continued to rise. In a few months, I am afraid that it will be more than 8 billion.

In this case, Paul Allen was able to win at a low price of $6 billion, which not only fully demonstrated his negotiation skills, but also proved that he and Xiao Qi have a very good personal relationship.

If you want to talk about personal relationships, say that it works and it works, and say that it is not valuable or valuable, the key is to see who the parties involved are.

For example, if one of the parties is Xiao Qi, then this kind of personal relationship is very useful.

Do you think that when Xiao Qi sold shares of Dreampad, App, and Dreamstars three times before and after, weren't they all sold to his friends?

Establish a good relationship with Xiao Qi, then the next time Fairy Company sells shares, especially app shares, can Microsoft also fight for it?

Once you have the app, an online application store that has been rated as "50 years of influencing the future of smart electronics", Microsoft will definitely have a competitive edge in the smart electronics industry that cannot be underestimated.

Over the years. With the rise of network electronics, especially mobile smart phones and smart tablets, the personal market that Microsoft has firmly guarded has gradually entered a stage of stagnation, and future development cannot be as rapid as the 1990s and early 2000s. Up.

I want to find a new business with growth potential and find the flashpoint of future profits. It is imperative for Microsoft to enter the field of smart electronics.

With such a clever hand, Paul Allen not only smoothly returned to the decision-making level of Microsoft's board of directors, but also gained great power. In the future development of Microsoft, he will definitely get more benefits.

Not to mention anything else, Paul Allen will be able to get a lot of equity incentives every year in the future, no less than hundreds of millions of stock income every year, no less Ballmer and Bill children's shoes.

Even this time the acquisition. Paul Allen did not sell to Microsoft at a loss, as Xiao Qi thought, to brag about his negotiating ability.

On the contrary, he sold an extra 200 million dollars and made a small profit.

It can be seen that Paul Allen still values ​​money very much, and with his ingenuity and wide contacts, this guy can really make a fortune!

Xiao Qi doesn't care whether Paul Allen makes money or not. This is the two sides in itself...no. Including Microsoft and the Quartet, things are favorable. It is completely unnecessary to care about who gets more.

For such a grand press conference, I am fully prepared to come to Microsoft.

Before the press conference was over, Microsoft's stock soared 2.5%. After the entire day's stock market trading, Microsoft even stepped out of the best single-day market in the past six months. The increase was as high as 3.2%.

It's tickling with anger at this.

After all, in the US market, it is an absolute competitor with Microsoft, which even Apple can't match.

The previous Apple, after the birth of the Apple, iPad, iPad, and these artifacts, the complete industrial chain is reached. Only then will I ride the dust, and directly leave behind and Microsoft.

It’s just that the current Apple hasn’t shown this kind of strong aura and domineering. Of course, it’s also because Xiao Qi directly robbed their ipad. Dreamstars are no worse. Can Apple be as hot as the previous life? Unknown.

Of course, Apple's confidence is still there, their R&D staff is still strong, and Joe's gang is much healthier than in the past, so the future development of Apple will definitely be better than other American companies.

Back to the topic ~www.readwn.com~ I originally asked Xiao Qi for the price, but since it didn't take long for him to start a lawsuit with the Fairy Company, this completely blocked the way Xiao Qi sold them.

I don't know if Peppa thinks of this, will he regret going to find Xiao Qi's fault?

In fact, for Xiao Qi, supporting a powerful enough Microsoft to directly compete against the upcoming rise is definitely a good move.

Because the Android system is playing free cards, but don’t forget, the ancestor of free cards is Microsoft’s. It opens interfaces for all software, so that all software can be made based on it, directly playing the original Apple. The fart is rushing, and he has achieved the great cause of a generation of hegemons!

It just runs on a computer platform, and the Android system runs on a mobile phone.

But with; g1, after these springboards, the ambition to develop on mobile phones will definitely expand.

Both of them are free systems, and they have to grab customers in the free area and divide the number of customers with each other. This is a great thing for Xiao Qi and the app alliance! (To be continued...) u
