Chapter 27 The Uninvited Guest (for collection)
Gallo didn't compare his professional knowledge with Irene, but just asked Irene, "If there are no other investment companies willing to give a higher price, can you survive the loss?"

Irene was at a loss for words for a while. It is true that she has professional knowledge, but she does not have much experience. Irene is indeed selfish. Of course, she wants to let Double-click Company to raise a larger sum of money.

But there are other ideas, if there is a big news, then her career will have a brilliant start!

But in case of failure, Irene's heart trembled for a while, it was nearly 2000 million dollars, how could she afford it.

"enough!"

Song Yang glared at Gallo. At this time, he had already rejected the acquisition of the Telephone and Telegraph Group. It would be useless to regret it any longer.

"I trust Irene's judgment and let the Telegraph Group want to invest in Double-click!"

Song Yang decided to lure the snake out of the hole. He used the name of the Telephone and Telegraph Group to pull the tiger's skin and pull the banner to promote the Double-click Company. Even the Telephone and Telegraph Group was attracted to the Double-click Company. What are other companies waiting for?
Gallo was still a little dissatisfied, but he was pulled by Greg, and after glaring at Irene, he left the office, and Irene, Ryan and others also left one after another.

After everyone left, Song Yang also leaned on the chair. If he wanted to talk about how it feels to push away 800 million US dollars, Song Yang can feel it.

But now there is no use worrying about it. It just depends on whether there are any big financial backers who have offered a higher price in order to double-click the company.

As one of the richest and most influential giants in America, the influence of Telephone and Telegraph Group is beyond doubt. When the news came out that it wanted to acquire Double-click, it immediately attracted the attention of Silicon Valley and Wall Street.

At this time, the venture capital companies that had been focusing on Silicon Valley began to set their sights on the companies behind Netscape and Yahoo. The news that the Telephone and Telegraph Group was double-clicking the company and bidding $800 million made many Those who heard the news were surprised.

The Internet market is very hot now, and everyone can feel it, but a company that has just been established for less than half a year, only using the concept of digital advertising business, and its revenue has not exceeded one million, has already become worth nearly 2000 million US dollars. , still makes many people speechless.

Using the telephone and telegraph group as a tool, the popularity of the double-click advertising company will naturally increase rapidly.

On Song Yang's side, he didn't wait too long, and soon received another call, and it was from an old acquaintance.

"Song, I saw the news, double-clicked the company, it seems to be in trouble?!"

The voice of Jim Clark came from the phone. Although his words seemed to be worried about the Double-click company, Song Yang always felt gloating when he heard it. He felt that the caller was not a good person.

Song Yang disagreed with Jim Clark's words, "Double-Click Company is not in trouble, but needs to use funds to develop the market. Don't forget, Double-Click Company will complete the performance plan of Netscape's [-] million digital advertising revenue next year!"

"Come on, Song, everyone is on their own, so you don't need to tell me this kind of talk, tell me, how much does Double-Click Company cost?" Jim Clark said directly.

Song Yang has no resistance to cooperating with Netscape. At this stage, he still has to hug Netscape's thigh and rely on Netscape's name to fool people.

"For 500 million US dollars, DoubleClick is willing to give up 10% of the equity to Netscape!" Jim asked Song Yang to quote, and Song Yang said without any politeness.

Upon hearing this, Jim Clark couldn't help scolding, "Song, I'm not a gang of Silicon Valley VCs who took advantage of it. Do you think Double-Click is worth $5000 million now?"

Song Yang directly pulled the double-click company to a valuation of 5000 million US dollars. Angrily, Jim Clark cursed, feeling that Song Yang was taking Netscape and the investors in Silicon Valley as fools.

"1000 million, Netscape wants to get a 50% stake in Double Click!"

Jim Clark will double-click the company's valuation, raising another 200 million, officially reaching the point of 2000 million dollars!
"Song, let me tell you that choosing Netscape is good for you and DoubleClick. I am "my own person" and I will abide by the rules of this industry. I have experienced everything you are going through now. Choose Netscape. Like Anderson, you can go on smoothly all the way, and you don't have to worry about being kicked out someday!"

Jim Clark spoke in a deep tone, and told Song Yang with a bit of warning that if he chooses other investors, there is no guarantee that Song Yang will not be kicked out of the double-click company he established.

In this regard, Jim Clark has profound experience. He was kicked out of SGI, which he established himself, and he is an amateur in investing. It is difficult to guarantee that he will not interfere with the operation of Double-Click.

Netscape Investment has no problems in this aspect at all. Of course, it is not ruled out that Song Yang and Jim will have a falling out in the future, but overall, choosing Netscape is a good choice. Take away half of Double-Click's equity, and invest a few more times in the future, and you will be able to directly control Double-Click.

"I'll think about it!" Song Yang, the telephone and telegraph company, refused, and Netscape, which raised the price by 200 million, was not far behind, but this time Song Yang didn't completely refuse.

For this result, Jim didn't care about it. He was just huddling rabbits today, just by the way, "One day, you will understand that Netscape is the best choice. My proposal has always been valid. You know my proposal." Telephone!"

After hanging up the phone, Jim Clark didn't take this matter too seriously. He thought that Song Yang would call him back sooner or later.

The price of 2000 million is Silicon Valley's evaluation of Double-Click Company. Whether it is Netscape or other venture capital, they will not give too much price, at most it is a difference of 200 million.

As for whether there will be other bullies who will come out to cut off the bully, Jim is not sure, but he also thinks it is unlikely. After all, we can’t always encounter Softbank’s mental illness, and rush to invest with [-] million US dollars. For some reason, Jim felt a little guilty when he thought of Yahoo.

The successive phone calls from the Telephone and Telegraph Group and Netscape gave Song Yang, Greg, Irene and others a general impression of Double-Click's position in the market, which is basically around 2000 million.

And after Jim Clark called, for a few days, there were not many calls from investment companies, only a few calls from tentative double-click companies, but the price offered was not higher than that of Netscape.

This made Song Yang anxious for a while, wondering if he should go to Netscape to start a conversation, but at this moment, Irene entered Song Yang's office again, bringing him some unexpected news .

"You mean, Wang An's company is going to send someone over to talk?" Song Yang felt that time and space were out of order. In his impression, Wang An hadn't gone bankrupt by now? !
