Vol 6 Chapter 541: Warm thanks

But even in front of his own employees, it is not good for them to see their own pride, which is not to be forgotten. This is the education he has received since childhood.

"Finally, I still hope that everyone can reflect on why this acquisition led by Microsoft did not succeed in the end?"

"We all know that we will have many good opportunities next, and I hope we can do better by then,"

Someone almost yelled, "Whether you can do better, the key depends on the boss's wishes,"

For example, we didn't do it well this time, mainly because you don't want us to do it well.

But no second idiot dared to shout out like this while blocking Feng Yiping's face, do they want to get confused?

Didn’t you see that the boss just filled a company like Softbank into the pit?

The $51 billion pit is definitely a rare scene in the luxury high-tech industry.

Feng Yiping wanted to say a few more words, but the phone rang, "Don't be discouraged, do it hard," he waved to everyone, and hurried out of the office with his phone.

Seeing him walking away with his mobile phone, the office suddenly became lively. Everyone was talking in whispers, with excitement and gossip in his eyes. We should have participated successfully without knowing it. A very large-scale commercial revenge plan now!

If so, then this will be a more memorable experience than successful acquisitions.

It's just that I didn't expect that the always kind boss, when it was time to start, was so cruel!

Their ruthless boss is now accepting thanks for the ruthless attack, "Feng, can you spare time these days," Peppa sounded very happy.

In view of the abrupt request of his, Feng Yiping hesitated, "It depends on what is going on."

"Of course it's a good thing," Peppa said immediately, "Brin, Schmidt and I, unanimously decided that at least we should treat you to a good meal."

When he said these words, Schmidt, who was also standing by, smiled slightly embarrassed.

Ever since Feng Yiping’s NEXTDOOR announced that he joined forces with Microsoft to acquire Yahoo, he has repeatedly and solemnly approached Page and Brin and said that he should have a good talk with Feng Yiping.

He believes that Feng Yiping should not do such a thing for loved ones to hurt their enemies.

For this reason, he was a little unhappy with Brin, but when he heard Feng Yiping and Microsoft quit together, he also felt a little embarrassed when he understood why Page and the others could be so calm.

"You said, what do you want to eat, where do you want to eat? As long as you want, whether you want to eat hot pot in the Himalayas or eat barbecue on the bottom of the Pacific Ocean... We must all be satisfied,"

Despite their sudden enthusiasm and politeness, Feng Yiping quickly adapted, "I actually want to dive in the Sahara Desert to fish for abalone,"

There was a visibly stunned over there. Feng Yiping heard a few of their discussions, and then Brin called out, "Can you catch a lobster?"

Feng Yiping once again confirmed that Lao Mei does not like abalone like we do, but what about abalone or lobster?

"I said, are you serious?"

"Of course, as long as Feng your request, we must meet," this is Schmidt talking, "Feng, I have to apologize to you," he added, "after you convince Jerry to agree to sell Yahoo, and announce After joining forces with Microsoft, I felt at the time that you completely ignored Google’s interests by doing that."

Feng Yiping knew that it was for this reason, "Schmidt, don't apologize first,"

"Also, you'd better wait, because if it's because of this, then I think you must have misunderstood. The reason why we gave up is really not because of Google."

If you accept their food at such a time, will you still need your credibility after it spreads out?

Playing lurking in such a major event, disregarding the interests of your partners?

Not to mention that some people at Microsoft should already have such suspicions.

"We know that subjectively, you did not do it because of Google, but we don't feel sad because of it,"

Hearing Peppa's words, Feng Yiping asked without thinking, "I said, Peppa, is this you? How could you say such a thing?"

When can he say such emotional words?

"I said that because I was happy," Page smiled.

He is so happy.

Microsoft just launched the acquisition of Yahoo, and they immediately understood what medicine Gates and Ballmer were practicing in the gourd, not for anything else, but mainly for Google.

At that time, he and Brin both secretly discussed whether or not to let go of the past entanglements, and take the initiative to find Yahoo to talk about cooperation and confrontation.

But before they really looked down, they saw the news that Feng Yiping decided to join forces with Microsoft. To be honest, they were greatly relieved at that time.

Although Feng Yiping did not seek their opinions on this matter, they just knew that Microsoft's dream would be difficult to realize.

Of course, if Feng Yiping solicited their opinions on this matter in advance, it would be another matter, or the situation would probably not be optimistic.

It was precisely because Feng Yiping had not discussed with them in advance that they knew that there would be no problems-this is the tacit agreement that Schmidt and Feng Yiping could not have.

"Anyway, don't look at the reason, just hit the result, we must thank you very much," Brin said.

As long as Yahoo is not acquired by Microsoft, it will be sunny for them.

Like Feng Yiping, they really don't care about Yahoo under the leadership of Softbank.

"Feng, are you thinking about it? Are you sure you want to dive in the Sahara Desert to fish for lobsters?" Brin couldn't help laughing out when Brin asked.

"Since you are so sincere to invite guests, then I don't have a good time to refuse. I will think about it first, okay, I will tell you when I think about it."

"You can come over to us now and think about it," Page said.

"No, I don't want to waste this opportunity in the park," Feng Yiping said immediately, "Who knows if I come now, will you be forced to the restaurant in the park?"

He is too familiar with Page and their routines.

"Haha, how could we do that, well, we might do that," Brin said without feeling embarrassed.

"Okay guys, I have a phone call, don't forget your promise," Feng Yiping said, looking at the caller's number, and most of this person came to express his thanks.

"Hello Chief,"

"Yiping," Chief Yang said with joy, "Whether it is me or Yahoo, thank you very much,"

Yahoo was finally sold for a high price of 51 billion US dollars. This is really a result that made him overjoyed, let alone those shareholders of Yahoo.

This result has once again successfully won the respect of investors and company employees from all walks of life. The industry's doubts about his ability to lead Yahoo again naturally disappeared with this result.

And this result can be said to be a very good completion of his career at Yahoo.

14 years ago, he and Ferro founded Yahoo, which opened a new chapter in the development of the Internet and allowed investors to obtain high returns.

14 years later, after he returned to the helm of Yahoo, at the request of investors, he sold Yahoo again at such a high price, so he can be called a very successful beginning and end.

Although it is inevitable that there will be some sadness, think about the average lifespan of high-tech companies in the United States is only 15 years, then such a result, at least not too bad.

"Chief, you don't need to thank me. This is mainly because of Yahoo's own comprehensive strength." To be honest, the relationship between him and Chief Yang is not as strong as that of Page and the others, so some things must be clear-cut.

"There is no level, I know better than anyone, if it were not for you, we would not have such a happy result," Chief Yang said.

Happy? That's not all.

"Now I have a lot of things to deal with. After a few days, I must thank you in person," he insisted despite Feng Yiping's urge.

Looking at the hung up call, Feng Yiping said in heart that our East is really reserved, not as practical as Peppa and others, but at this time, it is actually quite good. He actually still has some thoughts about being able to go to the South Pole or the North Pole. Sunbathe and eat ice cream on the sandy beaches.

…………

In Tokyo, Sun Zhengyi, who was still staying in the office and did not go home, received an email from Robert. It was the letter Ballmer had sent to the employees. "After 5 months, today, we finally have an opinion on the acquisition of Yahoo! Made a decision,"

"After careful consideration ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ we believe that it is no longer possible to acquire Yahoo economically. From the best interests of Microsoft shareholders and employees, it is a wise move to exit the acquisition."

"I personally and the company, thank you for your hard work... Now I still think that our plans and plans are the most reasonable and fair to Yahoo..."

"...We will continue to move forward, continue to innovate, and continue to grow...In the future, it is still possible for us to develop new and better partners through strategy*..."

Sun Zhengyi quickly read Ballmer's letter. In his opinion, there is a lot of content in the middle, which are all evasive words. Up to now, Ballmer still cannot admit their failure positively.

Of course, he also understands this. For Ballmer, who is about to take over Gates in full, this is really a tragic and major loss. Because of the sensitivity of timing, he certainly cannot admit this in his letter to all employees. a little.

However, Sun Zhengyi originally thought that he would be very happy at this moment. No matter from which point of view, the victory of this acquisition is a victory worthy of a special book.

He believes that in the future, like himself, it is impossible to defeat Microsoft and NEXTDOOR's cooperation. What's more, Yahoo is now firmly in the bag, and SoftBank can easily show its skills in the world's largest high-tech market. By the way, Yahoo Japan, which is booming, has completely become its own company.

But he found that the happiness after hearing the news just before disappeared faster than the morning dew.

When he was finally determined that he had locked in victory soon, he suddenly felt a little stunned, and what followed was a huge emptiness and panic.

He stood in front of the window and looked at the lights of thousands of houses in Tokyo at night.

Can we develop Yahoo as expected?
