Chapter 2372 Two proposals

Since June this year, the sales of smartphones have begun to surge, and this is basically a global trend. A very important reason is that the price of smartphones has dropped significantly.

Not only the domestic market, but also overseas markets.

Previously, the price of a smartphone was basically more than 300 US dollars, but now it is different. There are many low-priced phones for less than 200 US dollars.

In this field, Samsung and Motorola, owned by Asda, are competing again.

Nokia is really on its last legs.

At first, I made my own systems, services, and software, which was a waste of time. Now I have joined Microsoft's camp, and I can't stand up at all. It's hard to even survive.

Zhou Buqi was very satisfied with Aisda.

After acquiring Motorola, it launched a low-priced machine called Motorola V9 in June, priced at US$199, with global sales exceeding 28 million.

With the help of Motorola's mid-range and low-end phones, Asda's mobile phone sales this year can steadily exceed 100 million units.

With the explosion in sales of smartphones, the mobile Internet has naturally ushered in new development opportunities...At this time, technology companies, no matter how slow they responded, did not dare to hesitate and invested heavily in transforming to the mobile Internet.

The sale of UC Group has been put on the agenda again.

Both Microsoft and Baidu are starting to get anxious.

Zhou Buqi is no longer in a hurry. Regarding Microsoft CEO Ballmer's suggestion to restart negotiations, his response is that he has some personal matters at home recently, and he is also busy with Ziweixing Digital Media, Ziweixing Global, and Ziweixing's holding subsidiary YY. The company's listing.

After these three companies have been listed one after another, let’s study the matter of UC Group!

On September 18th, Shi Jinglin gave birth to a boy smoothly. She has a very strong character and she has the final say on matters related to elder men!

On the same day, the child was named Shi Yanli.

Zhou Buqi was startled.

He actually doesn't mind that the child takes his mother's last name, and it's not a big deal. But the elders in the family may not be able to accept it, especially grandpa.

I quickly discussed it with Shi Jinglin and said that it would be best for her to be named Zhou.

Shi Jinglin retreated and asked for the next best thing, "Then the English name is my surname."

Zhou Buqi immediately agreed, "Okay! That's it!"

Shi Jinglin may have planned it long ago. She never thought about giving her child a Chinese name with her own surname. She smiled and said, "The English name is Yandell·Shih."

Zhou Buqi smiled and said, "Okay, it sounds pretty good."

Shi Jinglin was very happy, her face was still a little pale after giving birth, but her eyes were bright, and she said with a sense of accomplishment: "Chinese names are good, his name is Zhou Yanli, your name is Zhou Buqi... they match well, listen. They look like two brothers."

Zhou Buqi had a black line on his forehead and said angrily: "Just be proud of yourself. You are happy. I will definitely be scolded by my grandfather! I guess he has already named his great-grandson."

Shi Jinglin curled her lips and said, "I don't want his name. Isn't Ning Ning the name given by Zhen Yu? I also want my baby to be named by myself."

Zhou Buqi didn't want to argue with her anymore, "Okay, that's it, I'll take care of my grandpa's side!"

Shi Jinglin rolled her eyes at him, pursed her lips and said, "You are the child's father. If you don't support him, who will?"

Now, Zhou Buqi has seven children.

The eldest daughter is Zhou Xin. She is not her biological child, but brought here by Ning Yaxian. She is 8 years old this year. She speaks Chinese and English very well. She went to elementary school in the United States and has already shown her aura as a domineering elementary school student.

The eldest biological daughter is Zhou Nianyi, born to Wen Zhixia in 2007.

In August 2010, Ning Yaxian gave birth to a daughter named Zhou Ning for Zhou Buqi. In October of the same year, her sister Ning Yameng gave birth to Zhou Buqi's first son. Her grandfather named the child himself. , called Zhou Jianzhou, which means "Everything is as simple as a cane, but a canoe can make a boat." In a sense, it is an extension of the word "buqi", and the meaning of carrying on the family line is immediately reflected in the name.

The old man is a half-hearted cultural person who always likes to show off in his writing and writing.

In February this year, Zhou Buqi's second son was born, born to Xue Baoshan.

The old man jumped out again.

Girls can be named whatever they want. It doesn't matter whether they are Zhou Nianyi or Zhou Ning, but for boys, he always has to show his identity as an elder in the family.

The boy's name was debated for three months, and it was finally decided in the summer.

His name is Zhou Jingce.

Taken from a poem - "Jingwu finally carried out Jia's policy, and Hou Liucha asked about Yuan Jing".

The meaning is very clear. The old man has high hopes for this boy, hoping that he will be able to show his talents in the business world and inherit the family business when he grows up.

Last month, Zhen Yu gave birth to a girl. She and Xu Baihui decided to choose the name together after discussing it, and she called her Zhou Muning. It is said that Xu Baihui also invited an immortal in China to calculate her birth date and get a good fortune.

Now, Shi Jinglin wants to break the old tradition and give birth to a boy and name her... Zhou Yanli. Well, judging from the naming style, it is quite grand and has a bit of a wealthy family atmosphere, which should suit the old man's taste.

Because the baby was a boy, the Shi family was very proud.

Even the father-in-law of the Shi family came over from China.

As a result, this heartless man started a dispute with his mother's family.

Zhou Buqi was really too lazy to participate, so he quickly used work as an excuse to skip away. He really had something important to do and went straight to eBay's headquarters.

Carl Icahn's efficiency is amazing!

He produced an industry analysis jointly produced by McCarthy and Morgan. It is believed that PayPal has a large scale among service providers in the field of digital payment and has excellent development potential.

However, being attached to eBay will seriously hinder its growth.

Now, Amazon, Apple, Google and many other companies have launched their own payment tools. The increasingly fierce competition forces eBay to make choices quickly.

If it's too late, PayPal's market share is likely to be taken away by other rising stars.

Zhou Buqi did not specifically participate in the persuasion for the split. The threat was too obvious. He was involved in the cooperation between Zi Weiyun and Yi Bei.

Today's large data centers are developing towards the cloud.

It is inevitable that eBay is also promoting the construction of a centralized cloud platform for its own big data center... but this is not an easy task.

Since last year, eBay has established a cooperative relationship with Microsoft, with Microsoft helping.

Zhou Buqi came here just to have a good talk with Yibei, and cooperation with Zi Weiyun is the way out! eBay also has a strong intention to join forces with Zi Weiyun.

Under this general trend, eBay held a board meeting and invited Zhou Buqi and Carl Icahn to participate. In fact, it was not a formal board of directors, but an online conference call. The main discussion was on two proposals.

1. Comprehensively promote the strategic cooperation between eBay and Ziweixing International to jointly fight against Amazon;

Second, spin off PayPal.

Zhou Buqi was embarrassed to say so.

Carl Icahn didn't care. As an invited guest, he rushed to speak first and said simply: "Let me say this, these are not two proposals, this is one proposal. Two things are one thing! Either Do it all or don’t do it! Today I want to come up with a final result!”
