Chapter 1,156

Jobs finally got the long-awaited opportunity. In Jobs' view, I'm afraid there won't be such an opportunity in the next ten, no, twenty, or even thirty years. In the past, "Apple" insisted on going its own way.

He insisted on being independent and self-created, but he was swallowed up by the compatibility craze. This made Jobs, who had lost his leadership and authority in the management at that time, very sad. It has always been the first pain in his life. If it were not for the stupid board of directors back then

With such random decisions, "Apple" will become as terrifying an existence as "IBM" is today.

Those "Intel" and "Microsoft" are definitely just clouds and clouds. Unfortunately, one mistake and everything is lost. Jobs originally thought that "Apple" would never have such an opportunity again, and would always be able to compete in personal computers.

Market, make a small fuss, take a boutique route, make a small fortune with fashionable appearance, and then revive the country in other industries. This has always been Steve Jobs's strategy after returning to "Apple". But now, "Intel"

Being forced into a deadly battle with Lin Feng, this was Apple's opportunity.

Thank God to my parents, I finally have the opportunity to re-enter the personal computer market! - Steve Jobs stood at the top of the Apple headquarters, looking at the people at his feet, clenching his fists, and murmuring in a low voice, having already decided to refocus his work.

Adjust to the personal computer market. As for the mobile phone market, there is no need to rush and develop slowly.

At this moment, I am afraid that no one outside the world knows that a "new" force will intervene in the struggle between "Intel" and Lin Feng, completely pushing the personal computer market into complete chaos. What will the future be like, and who will it be?

I'm afraid no one knows until the last laugh.

"Intel" doesn't know, Lin Feng doesn't know, and Jobs doesn't know either. But all three of them know that this will be a battle that determines life and death! Of course, this battle may not end in the short term, but none of the three parties have a way out.

.

Of course, Lin Feng didn't know that Jobs was also preparing to intervene in this melee. What he was focusing on at the moment was the declaration of "Intel".

"Haha, Lin, I didn't expect to anger the 'Intel' tiger this time. You have to be careful in the future." Ellison called, and a burst of laughter came.

Lin Feng shook his head helplessly. This time "Oracle" acquired "Sun" and "NVIDIA", the biggest beneficiary was "Oracle", which became one of the super business giants. And companies like this that have just become super business giants usually

It is the first target of other companies. After all, the market is so big and everyone has become a giant. It is naturally more difficult for everyone to make money. Naturally, they hope to use their strength to suppress other companies.

Unfortunately, before "Oracle" could face this danger, the fact that its own "Phantom Technology" acquired "Nvidia" angered the always domineering "Intel" and ignited the future standards war in the personal computer industry, which was regarded as a blessing for Ellison.

The problem was solved. Thinking of this, Lin Feng was a little speechless.

"Haha, Lin, don't be angry. Don't worry, I won't stand idly by. Since 'Intel' is going to provoke a standards war, then you just accept the challenge. My 'Oracle' will definitely support you behind the scenes!" Ellison

He laughed and said.

After acquiring "Sun" and "Nvidia", Ellison was finally able to truly straighten his back. This time no one will accuse him of talking nonsense and bragging all day long, because he now has absolute strength.

He can challenge any opponent. Of course, some opponents are too powerful, and he will only be strangled to death by the opponent if he challenges. For example, "ibm" is still not something Ellison can challenge.

Hearing Ellison's words, Lin Feng felt a little better. After all, Ellison benefited the most from this matter, but in the end he was the one wiping his ass. This was so unreasonable and so unpleasant.

"By the way, Lin, you acquired NVIDIA anyway, why not acquire more at once and form your own integrated personal computer industry chain," Ellison said.

Lin Feng was stunned after hearing this. A one-stop industrial chain? What is the difference between that and "Apple"? Back then, wasn't "Apple" ultimately eliminated by the market because of its complete independent production?

Ellison heard a silence on the phone and guessed what Lin Feng was thinking.

"Lin, you may have misunderstood what I meant. It is true that Apple's one-stop service industry chain was eliminated by the market. But that is their own fault. The standards they set can only be used by Apple.

Other companies cannot use it. Not only do they refuse any manufacturer to enter this standard, they also refuse any software company to enter. All of them are independently developed, which will naturally be eliminated by the market." Ellison snorted coldly. Obviously, for the "Apple" back then

"Such a decision is dismissive.

This "closed-door" strategy will only be eliminated. After all, you can't always occupy the market's cutting-edge technology and lead the market forward. Even a blue giant like "IBM", although it has been leading cutting-edge technology, will eventually fail.

It must be forced to transform into the field of dedicated computers to develop in order to continue to remain in a closed state. Otherwise, in the commercial market, the behavior of "ibm" will also be eliminated.

Lin Feng was thoughtful after hearing Ellison's words.

"Lin, the one-stop service of the industrial chain I'm talking about is that your company produces everything on its own, but opens the standards to the outside world and allows other manufacturers to join in. In this way, you will not become 'Apple second' at all. What's more,

I believe that the same will be true for Intel. He will never tolerate you completely controlling the graphics card market. The standards he mentioned should also be the same!" Ellison said in a serious tone.

Lin Feng nodded. At this moment, he understood what Ellison meant. However, if you want to form an industrial chain with one-stop production, you have to acquire many companies. Motherboards, hard drives, memory, monitors, keyboards, mice, etc. Of course, similar to monitors,

There is no need to purchase peripherals such as keyboards and mice. After all, no matter how computer hardware standards change, the standards of these peripherals usually will not change. If they change, it will be the same standard, not one standard in the east and another in the west.

Therefore, the only standards that Lin Feng really needs to formulate are the CPU, motherboard, graphics card, and memory. As for the hard drive, it is actually a universal standard. Now Lin Feng already controls the three major components: CPU, motherboard, and graphics card.

There is only one memory manufacturer left.

Lin Feng thought about it, and he already had an idea and goal in mind. But what troubles Lin Feng is that now Lin Feng actually has no money. Yes, Lin Feng has no money. Since the "Second Bank" and "South African Standard

After "Bank" financing "Baidu Portal", after maintaining daily lending, the two major banks temporarily had no money to lend Lin Feng huge funds to complete the acquisition. Even the original plan of "Second Bank" to acquire "NVIDIA",

It can only be changed to Lin Feng's "Phantom Technology" to carry out the acquisition midway. Lin Feng personally borrows funds from "Second Game" to "Phantom Technology" to complete the acquisition.

After completing this series of acquisitions, Lin Feng really has no money in his hands. But fortunately, after the merger and acquisition of "Baidu Portal" and "Yahoo" and the completion of the listing, Lin Feng will have money in his hands again, and it is

A large amount of money. In this way, the acquisition can be completed! But before that, the merger with "Yahoo" must first be completed.

Thinking of this, Lin Feng complained.

"Ellison, you said you wanted Microsoft to give up, but I see that Microsoft is still lobbying Yahoo's board of directors and continues to raise its offer, which has already reached US$49 billion. Obviously,'

Microsoft is determined to win Yahoo, but you are not being kind!" Lin Feng complained.

Ellison laughed when he heard this.

"Lin, don't worry, don't worry, 'Microsoft' will definitely stop! Of course, they will not give up on their coveting of 'Yahoo'. So, you must seize the opportunity!" Ellison's eyes are on

There was a flash of light.

Lin Feng nodded! Originally, the acquisition of "Yahoo" was to seize time. After all, facing the opponent "Microsoft", it is impossible not to seize time.

"However, Lin, if I work hard here, you can't just wait for me to take away Microsoft. You also need to work hard over there. Activities within Yahoo! Activities!" Ellison thought for a while and said.

Although Ellison has many plans, he is not absolutely sure when facing a formidable opponent like "Microsoft". Therefore, it is best for Lin Feng to also be active at the same time, to lobby the directors, and to have a two-pronged approach. That would be even better.

But that's it.

Lin Feng nodded. Previously, Lin Feng overestimated Ellison's ability and underestimated Microsoft's intentions for Yahoo. Therefore, he had been silently waiting for Ellison to make a move. Now he witnessed "

"Microsoft" is so determined to acquire "Yahoo", Lin Feng will naturally take action.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Feng took advantage of his special plane to fly to Sunnyvale, California, the headquarters of Yahoo!, where he secretly met with Jerry Yang and briefly discussed the matter.

"Director Yang, Microsoft can't let go now. It keeps raising its quotation. I hope you can also contribute. Otherwise I can't stop Microsoft. You should know that Microsoft doesn't have much, but it has a lot of money!" Lin

The wind is acting a bit rogue.

Now Lin Feng is convinced that Yang Zhiyuan wants to flex his muscles in the search engine market and have another decisive battle with 'Google'. Therefore, he absolutely does not want 'Yahoo' to be acquired by 'Microsoft', so Lin Feng must let Yang Zhiyuan step in.

force.

Yang Zhiyuan frowned. He didn't expect that "Microsoft" would be so determined and actually kept raising prices. Now it has increased to an exaggerated figure of 49 billion U.S. dollars. If he hadn't wanted to fight "Google", Yang Zhiyuan might have been tempted.

Therefore, it is not an exaggeration for Yang Zhiyuan to say that now more than 40% of the people on the board of directors of "Yahoo" are tempted. There are still 20% who are wavering, and the remaining 40% are the resolute and uncompromising group headed by Yang Zhiyuan.

But in the face of "Microsoft's" constant lobbying and price increases, I'm afraid these 20% centrists will make a choice soon. As for what they will choose, Jerry Yang knows how they will choose without guessing.

"Mr. Lin, I am also in a dilemma about this. I have tried my best to win over shareholders and get them to support my resolution, but in the face of the power of Microsoft, I am really powerless!" Yang Zhiyuan felt bitter for a while.

.

A penny can overwhelm a hero! Now "Microsoft" is not using a penny to hit you, but 49 billion U.S. dollars. Converted into one-yuan coins in RMB, that is about 3,920 coins. Let alone hit people, even if it is hit

Mountains can be smashed through.

Although Jerry Yang is the founder of "Yahoo" and has great authority, he is really helpless in the face of this dollar offensive.

Lin Feng could tell from Yang Zhiyuan's expression that Yang Zhiyuan had tried his best, absolutely tried his best. In this matter, Yang Zhiyuan had definitely not slacked off at all. If he was to blame, he could only blame "Microsoft" for being too strong!

The two of them were silent for a while!

Lin Chiling saw the two elites in the IT industry fell into silence, and she also fell silent. In his opinion, it was normal that Yang Zhiyuan couldn't do it. After all, Yang Zhiyuan was just Yang Zhiyuan, so he created a "Yahoo" and...

Being surpassed by "Google" is useless. But her boss, who is also her man - Lin Feng, shouldn't be unable to do it. Although Lin Feng and Yang Zhiyuan are both the proud men of heaven, compared to

, that's far from it. In Lin Chiling's heart, the difference between Yang Zhiyuan and Lin Feng is not a little bit different.

Now that Lin Feng cannot do it, it only means that Lin Feng is a little helpless for the moment, but it does not mean that Lin Feng will never be able to do it. In Lin Chiling's heart, Lin Feng is absolutely omnipotent.

"Boss, can I say something more?" Lin Chiling hesitated for a long time and said softly.

Yang Zhiyuan frowned. Although Lin Chiling is the secretary, this is a matter of life and death, involving a major business case involving tens of billions of dollars. What is Lin Chiling's identity speaking here.

Lin Feng was also slightly stunned. He did not expect that Lin Chiling would suddenly speak at this moment. Although this was somewhat inappropriate, Lin Feng was not as patriarchal as Yang Zhiyuan. He believed that a delicate female secretary like Lin Chiling was completely unqualified to speak.

.Anyway, I and others don’t have any ideas now, so why not just listen to Lin Chiling’s approach.

"Zhiling, tell me!" Lin Feng gestured.

There was a burst of surprise in Yang Zhiyuan's eyes. He looked at Lin Chiling again, who had a cheerful face, if he had any idea. At that moment, although he disapproved of Lin Chiling in his heart, his expression never showed it.

"Boss, I don't have any good ideas. But I think the people who vote are all people. They can be lobbied by Microsoft, why can't they be lobbied by us. I believe that with the charm of the boss, we will be able to lobby them to support Baidu.

The merger of Portal and Yahoo." Lin Chiling said with a slight trembling.

This was the first time she expressed her opinion on such a crucial matter. This stimulation made Lin Chiling tremble so much that she could hardly speak. After finishing speaking, she looked at Lin Feng nervously, hoping to get approval from Lin Feng.

words.

Lin Feng carefully thought about what Lin Chiling said, and shook his head helplessly. Lin Chiling thought too highly of herself. Although she was very magical and had created countless miracles, she was by no means omnipotent. She was just a person, not a god. These support Microsoft

'Shareholders of acquisitions make decisions based on profit, and will never be moved by their own words. After all, the merger of "Baidu Portal" and "Yahoo" will have far more benefits than the US$49 billion in the long run.

But that is when everything develops smoothly and it must be able to surpass "Google". Otherwise, there is no need to talk about everything.
