Fight To the Third Generation

The latest website: just over half a year.

Google has grown from a humble little startup to a rising star in Silicon Valley.

It's now one of the most well-known startups in Silicon Valley, attracting countless dream... speculators who want to be part of Google before it goes public.

Workers in Silicon Valley know that.

Rather than getting some dead wages, expecting options and equity rewards is the real shortcut to getting rich. Otherwise, even if you work hard for ten years, don’t expect to buy a good house in the high-priced Silicon Valley area and drive yachts all day long. The party is even more idiotic.

As for starting a business by yourself, although the benefits may be extremely high, the kind that directly achieves financial freedom, but the risks cannot be ignored.

The pits in the tuyere were gradually occupied by others.

There are more and more successful businesses, and fewer and fewer opportunities are left.

The precedents of countless start-up teams going bankrupt have reminded people that unless they come up with an excellent idea that they think is unparalleled, or find a good idea from their friends, the working people in Silicon Valley will not easily quit their jobs. In the early years, he was so daring and daring to fight.

then.

After weighing the pros and cons, you will find that betting directly on entrepreneurial teams that show signs of success is a safe and promising approach.

First, you don’t have to pay out of your own pocket, and second, you have the hope of earning income other than wages. Not only is the income guaranteed during droughts and floods, but it is also easier to get promoted and raise wages than old-fashioned Internet companies.

It is precisely because there are too many people who think this way that high-quality start-ups like Google are very easy to attract talents to join. Everyone works hand in hand for the sake of the company, and often shows exceptional vitality.

There are examples of emoji groups first.

Everyone believes that Google, which has been valued at $800 million by institutions, will soon be listed on the Nasdaq stock exchange.

Considering that when Yanwen Group went public, it distributed equity awards worth tens of millions of dollars and provided the opportunity to buy additional shares at a low price, which is quite kind.

In the first half of the year, when he went to Stanford, Harvard, Yale and other famous schools for school recruitment, Google was even more attractive than giants such as Microsoft, Yahoo, and AOL, which was undoubtedly a good thing for Su Yehao.

By the way.

The batch of Yanwen Group employees who chose to spend money to buy the original shares, the average starting price was only six dollars a share, and it rose to more than eleven yuan on the day of listing.

As long as the stock is held until now, so far, the income has reached 200%...

Early eleven in the morning.

Su Yehao appeared downstairs in Google's headquarters in a customized Rolls-Royce Phantom Headquarters bulletproof car, looked at the green sign, and sighed deeply.

Yin Liuli was there before and heard the content of his conversation with Yang Zhiyuan. Because of a big business involved, she didn't dare to interrupt.

On the road just now, Yin Liuli didn't bother to see Su Yehao thinking about things.

It was only then that she asked in a low voice, "Do you think this deal is worthwhile to acquire it for 1.2 billion US dollars? You seem to be very unwilling to sell it, so is there something bothering you?"

After getting off.

Su Yehao put his hands in his trouser pockets. In order to meet people from Qualcomm today, he dressed more formally, with black trousers and a white shirt, but he didn't have the habit of wearing a tie.

This has been counted as face.

Otherwise, shorts, slippers and short sleeves are his favorite ways to wear them in July.

Even the $6,000 pair of crocodile leather shoes are not as comfortable as slippers, but unfortunately, as a boss, you always have to take care of your image.

When I saw Yang Zhiyuan before, the other party was only wearing jeans and short sleeves.

As a famous super rich, he has already skipped the stage of needing to decorate himself with external objects. Even if he wears flip-flops to go shopping, he will be judged as "approachable".

Unlike the gang of Wall Street elites, who always like suits and shoes, they look domineering.

After hearing Yin Liuli's question, Su Yehao said decisively:

"It was just a few words before. You don't have to worry about it. Google is in a period of rapid expansion. By the end of this year, the number of users is likely to exceed 10 million. Knowing that it has great potential, Why did I sell it so early? The more important thing is that Google doesn’t need me to worry about it, it has matured enough to learn to make money for me, such a good company, it will be difficult to get it back after it is sold.”

Yin Liuli continued to ask:

"Then why did you look so tangled before? Sitting in the car without saying a word, I thought you were threatened by him and just got angry."

Su Yehao sneered:

"Threat me? Yahoo can put a little pressure on me. Japan's Softbank has not yet dealt with my strength. I was just thinking about whether to accept a financing. After all, Google burns money quite a lot, and I seem to be a little nervous. Just like Yang Zhiyuan I will not choose not to suppress Google because I have met with me a few times, and I will not choose not to suppress Google because of a few words of Yang Zhiyuan, and I will not obediently offer such a good company with both hands, and the other party is a Japanese company."

"Oh, it's alright if you're not angry anyway. I seem too stupid to help you in big business."

After Yin Liuli finished speaking, Su Yehao jokingly said, "Be confident and remove the word "like".

"???"

Laughing, Yin Liuli snorted lightly, and then told: "The name of Softbank in Japan is a bit special, the full name is called Software Bank, right, I seem to have seen its news from the data, and cooperated with the bank to launch fund products. , to raise funds from Hong Kong City.”

"Well, it is a venture capital company, similar to my koko venture capital, the difference is that I mainly use my own funds to invest abroad, and it not only private placement, but also raise financing through listing. The market is good now, and it is easy to make money by investing out. , when the market turns cold and its wealth management products lose money, then the problem will come, I may be able to find some money from outside, expand the scale of investment, increase the influence, and earn some pocket money at the same time... "

While talking, Su Yehao walked to Google. Many employees greeted him with nods and smiles when they saw him.

The outside world praised SoftBank bosses as smart.

However, when it comes to finding investment targets, Su Yehao has never been afraid of anyone.

The SoftBank of this era is far inferior to the SoftBank in Su Yehao's impression, with a total market value of only more than 10 billion US dollars.

When it was first listed in Tokyo last year, a brokerage had recommended SoftBank shares to him, and he would only buy it when his head was in the water. Compared with Sun Zhengyi, Su Yehao believed in himself more.

On the way to Silicon Valley, he just made a simple calculation. Although there are a few large projects invested recently, the capital chain is still relatively healthy.

The Kai Tak Cyberport project mainly uses land in exchange for loans, which is equivalent to borrowing money from the bank to buy the land. The entire development cycle is expected to last up to ten years, and there is no need to spend too much money in the short term.

The City of Thousands of Cores project can also obtain land from bank loans to build factories.

As for the major part of the wafer foundry and lithography machine research and development plans, the preparation process will take a long time. By then, it is estimated that the stocks invested in Yahoo, Amazon and other companies will be cashed out.

As the Nasdaq rose again and again, the funds in the wealth management account soared from about US$3 billion some time ago to around US$4 billion. If it continues to rise, there is still room for Google's expenses.

The fundamental reason why Su Yehao began to consider external financing was that he suddenly realized that he had been eating alone for a long time, so if Google was really suppressed by Yahoo, he would not even have an ally who could help.

The so-called suppression is likely not limited to the commercial field.

If you use the media to report some user data leaks, or fabricate news such as executive scandals, it will definitely not be good for Google's growth momentum. These practices are old traditions among American companies and can be used both internally and externally. .

This is related to the atmosphere of the supremacy of money in the United States. In order to win, it can be said that everything is necessary.

Therefore, if you think about the worst in everything, you are probably right.

As long as Google's development is curbed, Yahoo's market value may increase by tens of billions of dollars, and its dominance will make investors more confident in it.

In the face of such considerable benefits.

Even if Su Yehao can trust Yang Zhiyuan as a person, he cannot guarantee that other Yahoo shareholders will not use some tricks.

According to Yang Zhiyuan's previous statement, other Yahoo shareholders apparently had their eyes on Google, and excluded him from Yahoo shareholders, forming a new small circle.

If he thought about it further, Su Yehao thought he was an outsider, except for some illusory fame, his foundation was seriously lacking.

With Laomei's arrogant and xenophobic character, as the interests involved increase, it is difficult to guarantee that when Yahoo starts, other venture capital, funds and other institutions will not seize the opportunity to start together, and even affect other layouts.

After considering these considerations, Su Yehao came up with the idea of ​​advancing Google's financing plan.

If you hold on for a while, you will have the opportunity to get some more money back, and incidentally solve Google's development funds for the next two or three years. Anyway, investors will lose money at that time, and they will be able to throw the blame on the poor market environment. Follow him Su Yehao. What does it matter.

When the industry enters the cold winter period, and Yahoo has no time to take action against Google, it may be possible to win a golden development period for a few years.

Other companies care about market value and earnings, but Su Yehao only focused on traffic from the very beginning.

Therefore, disasters in the eyes of others are actually opportunities in his eyes. The Yanwen Group's winter plan was ready last year. Google has not yet landed. Financing plan.

If you think about it from a different angle, after you openly compete with Yahoo, you can reasonably dump your Yahoo stock holdings and put the cash in your pocket.

Before meeting with the people from Google, Su Yehao thought about these things first, and his mind was immediately settled.

When he came to the top floor of the company ~www.readwn.com~ took CEO Larry Page, CTO Sergey Brin, COO Danielle Kenning, plus o and other executives, Let's go to the meeting room together.

After showing up, he pretended to be worried and said:

"Everyone, here comes our difficulty."

"Yang Zhiyuan from Yahoo asked me to sell Google to him for only $1.2 billion, which is undoubtedly worried about our excellent performance and trying to start blocking our signals."

"Although the company is not so valuable now, in my eyes, the Google you jointly built is worth at least 10 billion US dollars, and may even surpass Yahoo's achievements."

"Congratulations to everyone first, this proves that the value we have created has made Yahoo panic, but the key is, what do you think should be done next..."?
