Reborn American Tycoon

　Also, this thing is free.He spent such a high price, is it for free? "

　Not to mention Andy was dizzy, the old guy from Dalmore was the same.Today's world is becoming more and more incomprehensible.

　There are software that can sell for hundreds of thousands of dollars, and gadgets that can sell for tens of dollars.Ahem, and free Big Macs.

　"Free? Andy, his search engine is also free, right? Do they have a profit model now?"

　"It's just a very meager advertising fee. Compared with their expenditure, it is completely different." Andy shrugged disapprovingly. These things may make money in the future, but it is very difficult now.

　"He must have a way to make money, go ask, when will the A round of financing be."

　"Okay, boss, I'll ask right away, they ordered a bunch of servers, this thing is too expensive."

　Burning money, William White naturally knows.However, he didn't care about this.Even if you don't know how he makes money, it's not like there are investment banks sending money.

　"Ahem, what, the valuation is at least [-] million, are you sure you heard correctly?"

　"Well, boss, Tom really said so, and Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley both have investment intentions."

　Bill Gates is very depressed, how dare you ask for a price of 24 million for a company that has not been online for [-] hours.This is unreasonable.

　"Ahem, how many shares will they take?"

　"No more than 15%. From that tone, it seems that I don't really want to sell."

　Of course, William White didn't want to sell it. If it wasn't for the future, it would be better to be a private company.Once you become a public listed company, many of your things must be made public.

Chapter 783

　Student Bill is very entangled. Whether to participate in the stock market is indeed a question.

　It was almost a certainty that William White would not want his knife.As for the shares, Bill Gates is a little unwilling.

　There's no question that Microsoft isn't the little guy it used to be.Whether it is the operating system or office software, they are all dominant.

　Looking up, he saw that there were already a lot of things in his house.The White system is as fragmented as possible. It can be split into two companies and will never be merged.

　He is different from Microsoft, all the vegetables in the basket are picked.As long as it can expand, he can't wait to incorporate all software companies.

　Two companies with completely different styles have always been talked about by their counterparts in Silicon Valley.Which way is better, it's hard to say now.William White should have been frightened by the Ministry of Justice.Otherwise, who would be willing to engage in more management.

　"What's the matter with Netscape? Can you sue them for copyright infringement?"

　"Boss, no, not only will there be no results, but they will also take the opportunity to hype it up. The user experience of this Voyager software is not good. However, the search engine of White System provides support."

　"So easy? Damn it, I'm still a shareholder of this company."

　Bill Gates is very speechless, his shares have only half of the voting rights.William White would not have cared about his objections.What's more, this company only belongs to his daughter.

　"Give up support for Netscape? Is it because I heard it wrong, or is Bill kid crazy. If I really do this, guess whether Netscape will sue him for unfair competition."

　"No, boss, doing this is a dead end."

　"Tom, that company will not develop very well, as long as Microsoft's follow-up system is good, he doesn't need to care at all.

　Do you know why ICQ is free? "

　"I don't know? Boss, there are many rumors in the outside world. Cough cough, there is nothing good to say anyway."

　"I will care about these. There is only one reason for free, which is to restrict the entry of competitors. As long as I insist on free, the opponents will be piled up by my huge funds.

　Is it really difficult to make money when there are more than [-] million users? "

　With 13 million users, Tom was obviously confused[-].My God, the personal PC market is actually calculated in billions.It seems that I also need to adjust my strategy here.

　"By the way, Tom, tell Bill to make the software better. No more blue screens, freezes during presentations, it's very embarrassing.

　Also, it still needs DOS booting. I am too old to remember so many DOS commands. Let him do it.Also, it's been so long since I got the browser, why there is no obvious change.If it doesn't work, it's best to split it out. "

　"Ahem, boss, are you sure you want to say that?"

　"Nonsense, good medicine tastes bad and is good for the disease. I invest so much in myself, of course I hope he develops well. If he can't even figure out this, it's really meaningless."

　Bill Gates really has nothing to say, he William White is still polite.You have to ask Master Qiao to say that besides liar and thief, there are probably no other words.

　William White is not worried about Netscape's counterattack. In the previous life, Microsoft continued to die, and Netscape didn't play itself to death.

　The current browser is just browsing the webpage, and there are not many additional functions.If it can be messed up like this, then it is not Bill Gates.

　Bill Gates is very good at how to limit his competitors.Netscape was ruined, Lotus was ruined, and the fighting power of this product is simply beyond the charts.

　Even William White finds it difficult to deal with Microsoft at the moment, so don't mention other people.

　"Boss, there is something wrong with Mexico."

　"Filson, what's the problem, hasn't their growth been good all the time?"

　"Boss, their short-term loans have exceeded 300 billion US dollars, and their foreign exchange reserves can only be described as pitiful."

　"Hey, I really don't know what to say, this North American Free Trade Area is really a deep pit.

　What, the brain trust means, short the peso?It seems that it doesn't mean much. "

　"Boss, what, the mosquito is small..."

　"Okay, okay, try to be as secret as possible, their size is too small, just earn some pocket money."

　Filson smiled wryly, although it won't bring much benefit.But it is also in units of [-] million.

　He actually didn't know that William White was very entangled in the current situation in Mexico.He has never been optimistic about the North American Free Trade Area, and now he is fine, and after a few days of comfortable life, troubles come.

　The recent Mexico is not peaceful. When cheap American agricultural products come, a large number of farmers will be in bad luck.How can your semi-mechanized farming be able to resist the farmers of the United States.

　The United States has a lot of agricultural subsidies, and they are all large-scale super-large farms.Just relying on your weak foundation, you still dare to compete with the US emperor.

　If there is a price war for agricultural products, no one is an opponent of the United States, especially corn and wheat.

　Farmers went bankrupt, of course they quit.How dare you come here to collect taxes, just do it.

　Why was Mexico so chaotic later on? It was actually caused by the US imperialists.Since growing food will go bankrupt, let's grow other things.Since the United States likes washing powder, we will produce more.

　They did succeed in the end, cheap and good quality.More than [-]% of the goods in the United States are provided by them.The money earned was exchanged for the weapons of the Americans.

　It's not that William White has any Madonna plot. If you do this, there will be big problems.

　What?Build a fence.

　Hahaha, Master Intuit did indeed do that.It's a pity that the tens of billions of walls were defeated by the rope ladder of five dollars.

　This guy definitely doesn't study. If he did, he should know that the Berlin Wall was not very successful back then.

　Maozi really dared to shoot, nothing could stop him.You're just repatriating, it's no big deal, just come back next week.At most it's a waste of five dollars.

　"By the way, Filson, how do I feel that this situation in Mexico is also common in Asia.

　You see, all kinds of foreign investment, not to mention the huge amount, are all in the financial and real estate field.Nima, isn't it good to learn from others' big rabbits?Finance is not open at all, and real estate is for export. "

　"Ahem, Boss, this is probably because Wall Street is dissatisfied. If you do this, they will do no good at all.

　Therefore, the Olympic Games are all kinds of moths. "

　"Hehe, this kind of thing is really important if it is important, and I think it can be tolerated if the price is lower.

　Fully open the financial sector?You are so awesome, why don't you let people open up agricultural products.

　Alas, Mexico may be in trouble this time. The industry cannot grow, and the agriculture has been ruined again. Is there really a way to repay so many short-term loans? "

　"Boss, if there is a problem here in Mexico, those investment banks will be very vigilant.

　Cough cough, if a large amount of investment is withdrawn from Asia..."

　"Just keep an eye on it, if you continue like this, there will be problems sooner or later."

　"Okay, I see, I will arrange a special team. Mexico is just a country, and it has little to do with the surroundings. Asia will be in trouble."

　William White thought to himself, there is more than one Mexico.This thing is the middle income trap.After a storm, the entire American continent lost its energy.

　The neighbors around are weaker, of course, it is beneficial to the United States.If it is too powerful, it will be really troublesome.The U.S. emperor certainly didn’t expect it when he was digging a hole. If he is too weak, he can’t do it. If he can’t survive, can’t he still go to the United States?

Chapter 784

　Speaking of innovation, the current Silicon Valley in the United States is indeed very interesting.

　The IT industry, after all, is a new industry.Since the earliest counterattack of Wang An Computer, too many miracles have been born here.

　Apple, Microsoft, Compaq, Dell, Cisco.Do the math, how many billionaires have been born in just how many years.

　Of course, if you add the White system, which is already a giant, it will be too exaggerated.

　Counterattack, from nothing to the pinnacle of life, this is a very inspirational story in any country.

　After these stories were infinitely magnified by the media, more and more people began to reconsider their own development direction.

　The power of role models is huge. Since others can, there is no reason why you can't.In just a few years, San Francisco not only recovered from the earthquake, but it also planned to compete with Los Angeles.

　Is it really that easy?

　Hehe, think too much.

　Like Los Angeles, I dare to say that I am a screenwriter if I am an individual.In San Francisco, there are not a few people who fool investors with a pile of garbage.

　"Boss, is this investment rejected?"

　"Why? These two guys are both experienced talents."

　Filson smiled wryly, what they plan to do is a search engine.Doesn't this conflict with your So easy?How much William White valued this company, Felson would never know.

　"Filson, think too much, we can't eliminate all competitors, there can't be only one browser on the market, and there won't be only one search engine.

　This David Filo and Yang Zhiyuan are both talents.I heard that Sequoia Capital is also in talks.We don't require holding shares, so hurry up and negotiate the angel round.

　By the way, in the future investment, there is no need to consider the factors of competition.If it conflicts with the main business, invest in the name of the family fund. "

　"Okay, I know the boss, these two guys do have some skills."

　William White complained secretly, more than just some skills.However, labor and management have already engaged in a search engine, will you still be successful?

　The richest man obviously thinks too much. If someone can succeed, he will naturally have his own set of things.Yahoo is not so much a search engine as it is a portal.

　That stuff you have NBC Online, is clearly not entertaining enough.With the increasing number of ordinary Internet users, such relatively serious websites are not popular.

　What?You have to be more lively.

　Cough cough, this thing is not acceptable.It is both relaxed and lively, and it is simply a very nonsense statement.

　People can't be too greedy. Since you are called NBC Online, the subject matter must be rigorous.Otherwise, you will become a joke.

　As for So easy, William White prefers it to replace Google.Even if it can't stop Google from appearing, it needs to fight against each other.

　"Jerry, are you sure? The White Foundation invested in us, I thought, you just use it to hang the redwoods."

　"David, you are too narrow-minded. No wonder you were so stingy and gave me a B. You know, as a top student, I never got a B."

　David Ferro was very speechless, Yang Zhiyuan is good in other places, it is this narrow-mindedness.Alas, buddy just can't understand your pride and deliberately hit you.

　"Jerry, don't talk about these useless things. White Fund's conditions are better than Sequoia's?"

　"Of course, Sequoia Capital? Huh, if there is a choice, I don't want to deal with it for the rest of my life. Although William White is not a good bird, he rarely does things absolutely."

　"You mean about Cisco?"

　"It goes without saying that they don't interfere with the company's operations. Proper financial management is a very reasonable requirement."

　"Haha, so we can get out of this mess?

　Damn, the pizza you ate last month is still there.God, I'm working with a bunch of people. "

　"Never mind that, David, go find a place to have some fun today. Our lads are so hard, they need some stimulation."

　"Okay, okay, as you wish, I'll make a phone call first."

　The well-dressed guys who show up at night are usually those investors.As for those unkempt greasy uncles, they may be ignored by beautiful women in other places, but not in Silicon Valley.

　When this group of guys went crazy, they were much more generous than that group of bankers.Of course, when they are crazy, they are also very exaggerated.

　If you think that a guy wearing a pair of highly myopic glasses will be very gentle.That would be dead wrong.

　This group of guys happily celebrated the victory, while Don Valentine was a little bit bitter.This was the third failure this month, and since the last time he pissed off William White, he has been very difficult to mix in Silicon Valley.

　First of all, William White is not as black-hearted as he is.Even the oracle bone inscriptions that he hostilely bought, they didn't kill them all.Larry Ellison is more comfortable than when he was his own boss.

　They have too many Sequoias, and the Cisco matter is at hand. Not only did they drive away the founders, but they also planned to drive away other investors.

　Nima, this is what happened to William White.If you want to change someone, it is really possible to stumble.

　Don't think that word of mouth doesn't matter. When there are no competitors, of course you are the one who is ruthless.Now that there are other options, those IT guys are not idiots.

　You have to understand, if they are just a tech geek, they don't want to start a business.You Sequoia Capital is so over the top, hehe, even if they must talk to you, others will add a lot of conditions.
