Chapter 190 Yang Zhiyuan (1/3)

US courts like to make punitive judgments on large companies, so they will often result in fines that are often higher than the actual amount, which can greatly help rectify the industry order, making entrepreneurs afraid to act recklessly, and can also protect the rights and interests of ordinary consumers.

It is not clear what the final result of the lawsuit will be, but since it is really infringed, it is unlikely to get out of here. What needs to be considered is how to minimize the losses as much as possible.

It is not Ye Dongqing's character to suffer a loss. The other party provoked him for no reason, which made him hold a grudge. He began to think about how to make Google suffer a big loss and the loss is not worth it. Android must be robbed, and Facebook also wants to overturn Google's products. So he decided to let the instant text communication function be launched immediately and arrange the development of FB mailboxes, so he tried to put the Google mailbox project that had not yet been put into the market and was in the cradle.

Provoking Ye Dongqing is considered to have chosen the wrong opponent, and has even begun to consider whether to give Yahoo some small suggestions to make it equal to Google in the future, at least not let Google dominate.

It's okay if others want to compete, but he hates others treating themselves as stepping stones.

Until now, Yahoo is still the world's largest search engine service provider. It landed on Nasdaq just over a year after its establishment. Its stock price rose by 154% on the day of its listing, and its market value reached 800 million US dollars. In January 2000, before the Internet bubble burst, Yahoo's market value once reached 1,28 billion US dollars.

Yahoo's future is a tragedy, so Ye Dongqing has never invested in it. To be honest, as long as the CEO who has more ability and vision is more difficult to continue to suppress Google. He felt that it was necessary to contact Jerry Yang, who is also a Chinese, and there was no reason to make his competitors comfortable.

...

As the request was conveyed, the FB immediately arranged an online update program, and the executive called several supervisors to start developing an email.

Ye Dongqing found a computer and logged into Google's official website to try to use the newly launched social platform. From the program called "Chatting", you can clearly see the shadow of Facebook, but the operation methods are a bit different. I believe that Google's program developers have tried their best to bypass FB's patents, otherwise they would not have the face to sue.

How to say, the user experience can only be considered average and relatively simple, which made him feel relieved. He didn't have to worry about competition for the time being. Then he called them to help contact Yahoo and was preparing to buy an advertising space from Yahoo's homepage to continue promotion. If he had the chance, it would be better to meet Yang Zhiyuan. Ye Dongqing hoped to use this to express his attitude to Google.

Then download the new version of FB. In addition to the Skype icon, there is an additional W icon, which means that the user already has text chat function, cannot be stored in the cloud, and does not have an emoticon function, but it supports group chat, which is enough.

There are not many friends who pay attention to each other. The background monitoring program shows that the number of registered users is approaching 60 million, and it is still increasing. Recently, I have been spending money to advertise crazily, and the traffic drainage effect is quite good, and the number of overseas users is increasing.

He doesn't think that if Google's search engine is good, it can do well on social platforms. If a user's companions use FB, then he will naturally choose to join in. It has become a climate and is more competitive.

Miss Maxi posted a few pictures, pictures of eating in a restaurant, and Ye Dongqing commented, but she didn't get a reply for a long time. She didn't have any on the first day and neither on the second day. This was enough to show a certain attitude. He knew that this relationship might be cold.

**********

Laura received an admission letter from University College London, a top university in the UK that is not inferior to Cambridge and Oxford. She was so happy that she even invited Ye Dongqing to have a meal as a celebration.

She is still conducting model training and is busy with fitness. It is said that Victoria's Secret Company will soon arrange some jobs for Laura. She received a reward of 4 million US dollars when signing the contract. This is the first year's fee and is likely to be on the Victoria's Secret TV station by the end of this year.

While Ye Dongqing was busy dealing with business matters, she occasionally went to personally supervise the island renovation project and hired dozens of gardeners to work together. The grass was about to be laid, and the red maple trees were planted one after another. Compared with the time when she bought it, there was a huge change.

The lawyer tried to settle out of court and was willing to pay Google $5 million. The suggestion was rejected and would soon enter the trial process. In this case, Ye Dongqing rented a private plane and came to Silicon Valley to have dinner with Yahoo founder Jerry Yang.

The people under his command helped him send an invitation, and Jerry Yang immediately agreed. He is in his thirties now and like many Silicon Valley technology giants, he has no airs. Just a few years ago, he was also a hard-working entrepreneur. After all, a few people who are arrogant like Larry Ellison are among the few.

The dinner was arranged in a Chinese restaurant. As soon as Ye Dongqing arranged the dishes, he rushed over with a bottle of Maotai liquor and sat on both sides of the small round table in the private room. Yang Zhiyuan pushed his glasses and said with a smile: "I went back to my hometown last month and brought several boxes of liquor at the airport. Do you drink anything casually, liquor or beer?"

This kind of opening remark is not common in the United States.

"I'll drink some white wine, but I haven't drunk much before, and it's almost poured out at most." People who can drink pure whiskey can mostly accept the spicy taste of white wine. The vodka level is generally higher, and Ye Dongqing thinks he can accept it.

"That's fine."

The waiter just came over, and Yang Zhiyuan asked for a plate of peanuts, and then said: "I heard your name a few months ago. Facebook is doing very well. I also have an account. At that time, IDG found me and wanted to sell Tencent shares to me for $6 million. The people under his command felt that they could make it out, and there was no need to spend money to buy it. Now I regret it."

"I still can still invest now. MIH Group has bought a large amount of shares. Tencent has not yet been listed and its market value is underestimated."

"At that time, I ask you, there are many issues that need to be considered now. I am not as good as you young people. Almost all the acquisitions and investments have failed in the past two years. However, I am very optimistic about Facebook. When the secretary told me that you were going to treat me to a meal, I thought you agreed to let this company receive financing. Do you want to talk to me about this?"

Yang Zhiyuan asked, most of the time, because they were all Chinese, they felt inexplicably close. After a few minutes of meeting, they spoke quite casually. The two were worth similar, and there was no status gap that needed to be cared about...
