Chapter 461 Facebook’s new situation (4k)

"Have you had your hair removed?"

Lu Fei was woken up by the rustling sound. He opened his eyes and looked over. He saw Ivanka wearing his white shirt and shaking her smooth long legs, so he touched it.

"ah!"

She didn't expect him to wake up, so she let out a short exclamation and rolled her eyes angrily: "I hate it, women don't want to discuss this kind of topic with men."

"Then let's talk about what men and women should talk about during the day!"

Lu Fei pulled gently and turned over. The red waves were rolling, and the bright headlights were shining exceptionally in the sun. He almost capsized in the ditch. Fortunately, he was an old sailor, and he was able to catch the waves~

At three o'clock in the morning, the smell of gunpowder smoke from the battlefield gradually dissipated.

He leaned on the bed and lit a cigarette comfortably. He closed his eyes and thought about it for a while, then the corners of his mouth turned up. He didn't expect that Ivanka was so unrestrained that she didn't even wear a bra. She had no emotions. This is a bad habit.

I have to change it, so buy some trendy styles from Victoria's Secret and give them to her.

"Deng Deng~"

Ivanka, who was fair and rosy, pushed open the door and walked in. Her beautiful figure was covered by a professional skirt. She opened the curtains and said:

"You should buy a property in New York. You can't stay in a hotel all the time. Sometimes you need to hold a dinner party to entertain friends in your circle."

"Do you have any recommendations?"

Lu Fei rested his head on his hands and blew out a smoke ring.

In her sight, Ivanka looked like half hostess and half personal secretary. She reached out and pointed at the conspicuous tall building opposite, and smiled: "That's it, No. 220 Central Park, New York!"

"Well, I prefer the villa."

Lu Fei got out of bed out of curiosity and took a closer look.

"That was before."

Ivanka snatched away the cigarette he was holding, put it in her mouth and took a puff, "Today's rich people like to 'live in the sky', just like my father, he and his third wife who are about to get married.

, living in a three-story duplex villa on the top floor of his building."

"Okay, just watch, I believe in your vision as a real estate developer's daughter." Lu Fei patted her buttocks.

"Hate it, I'm just making a suggestion."

Ivanka immediately became angry and her eyes gleamed.

"If you like it, place a reservation and ask if there is a suitable floor?"

Lu Fei put his arm around her waist and nodded lightly. It was not just as simple as making a woman smile. The Key Building 220 was known as the "billionaire's bunker". It maintained and increased its value and was completely worth every penny.

"real?"

"Well, I'm responsible for signing and paying."

"Humph, I won't move there. I have a place to live in New York."

"Here? Or here?"

Lu Fei grinned, deliberately making trouble.

Ivanka put the cigarette back into his mouth and rolled her eyes: "My father gave me a small house. He is married. I can't go back and disturb them again."

Lu Fei asked: "By the way, what gifts are they going to give when they get married?"

"Didn't the wedding invitation come with a 'gift purchase list'? Didn't you read it?" Ivanka felt the hand on her waist being pulled out. She turned around and saw him rummaging through the box and pulling out the invitation.

The list above is clearly hierarchical, so you won’t have to rack your brains as to which gifts should be given to friends and relatives, and which should be given to ordinary guests.

Lu Fei smiled and said, "Isn't it true that the sooner people see the list, the more priority they will have?"

"yes!"

Ivanka turned around and walked over: "So the order of sending invitations is very particular. Generally, invitations to friends are sent first, then to relatives, and finally to parents, brothers and sisters."

"Who am I?"

Lu Fei raised his lips and joked, is he a cheap uncle?

"You are just my boss, we all give each other what we have!"

"Okay, after I change my clothes, you go out with me to buy gifts."

"Why should I wait for you? I'll go alone."

"Hey! It's working time now. You are my secretary. It is also your job to accompany your boss to buy gifts!"

………………

After the successful listing, Penguin's needs changed.

The two major shareholders, Mr. Lu and MIH Group, will step back behind the scenes and help partners such as Lu Huateng and Zhang Xiaolong to take over to create the next technology hero that will attract the world's attention.

Ever since, when accepting exclusive interviews with newspapers and magazines such as The New York Times, Fortune, and Vanity Fair, I would always point out Lu Huateng from time to time and brag about his reputation.

It is estimated that it won't be long before Penguin takes down the oil pipe and Lu Huateng, the actual operator, is not allowed to take off. By then, Mr. Lu will be able to hand over Goose City with confidence.

A substitute is a good thing!

Enjoy blessings for him and do evil for him!

Channels like NBC and ABC, which are not like the BBC with the underworld filter, have cooperated and said a lot of good things. After all, they have given enough money. Penguin has performed very well in the past two days, and the stock price has basically stabilized in the range of 154 US dollars.

At the end of the day's interview, the sky was dyed blood red by the setting sun, the street lights were on one by one, and the lights in the famous brand stores were like daylight.

"You want to buy this red tie for my dad?"

Ivanka blinked.

"Why, wouldn't he like it?"

Lu Fei raised his lips, "No way?"

Ivanka said doubtfully: "No, he likes it very much. He likes to wear red just like Michael Jackson, but how did you know?"

"Because there are no Chinese people who don't like red scarves."

Lu Fei showed a smirk and saw the clerk put on thin white gloves, carefully put them into the packaging box lined with blue velvet, then swiped the card, signed, and delivered the goods.

Back and forth, it only took 10 minutes.

Then he and Ivanka held hands and went shopping as intimately as a couple. They looked at each other with mixed feelings from passers-by, especially the envious and jealous eyes of the old white man. If it hadn't been for the intimidation of Wang Ben and other bodyguards, he would have been there long ago.

You are so deliberately looking for trouble.

While accompanying her to buy gifts, Zuckerberg finally called, and the two met at a nearby cafe.

"I'll find you later."

Ivanka waved her hand and "sent" the man away.

"Leave two people with her."

Lu Fei nodded, took Wang Bi and other remaining bodyguards with him, and strode to his destination. Zuckerberg, who was already a prototype of a robot, was sitting in the outdoor area of ​​the cafe, and there was an unfamiliar face next to him.

"Sean Parker, the founder of Napster, he now officially joins us as the company's CEO."

After Zuckerberg's introduction, Sean Parker reached out his hand with mixed feelings and complimented: "Sir, Spotify's 'online McDonald's' model is really a genius move."

"Haha, this is also due to you."

Lu Fei shook hands with him. Napster was the originator of pirated music websites. It was hated by the American record industry and was strangled in the cradle by collective efforts. If it hadn't been for this instigator, the American record industry would never have easily accepted Logic, an outsider.

But now, logic is like Apple in the previous life, strangulating the throat of the music giant.

"Hehe, yes, Gulu, Gulu~"

Sean Parker picked up the cup and drank it in one gulp. The bitter taste of American coffee stimulated his taste buds, and he smiled widely.

Lu Fei comforted: "Don't be depressed. Although Napster failed, you have accumulated resources and experience. I think at Facebook, you can give Zuckerberg a lot of correct advice. If you do it well, you will still be a billionaire."

"That's right, Lu!"

Zuckerberg nodded repeatedly, "Sean is great. He made me determined to drop out of school and start a business. He also made me realize that it was time to kick Saverin out of the company."

Lu Fei knowingly asked, "Why?"

"He failed to fulfill his responsibilities. As the company's CFO, he didn't care at all. He was not even willing to go to California for some necessary signatures. He also lost the company's interests. He even used Facebook to advertise privately, and still paid for himself.

Job search website founded.”

Zuckerberg complained fiercely in front of his idol, and the thunder laid by Mr. Lu during the financing was completely detonated: "I've had enough, he must get out, Facebook can no longer tolerate the next development.

Him!"

Lu Fei said: "How far has Facebook developed?"

"We are going to move our strategic focus from campus to society, allowing everyone in the country to participate in social networking!" Zuckerberg said excitedly: "Just like Line has done in Southeast Asia."

"That's not enough. You also need to open up the massive data owned by Facebook to third-party developers through APIs (application programming interfaces)."

Lu Fei proposed to build an API open platform.

Zuckerberg suddenly understood: "Just like how Facebook promotes Happy Ranch and Happy Ranch?"

"Yes, a Facebook account should not be just a pass for a website." Lu Fei copied the model he used to guide Li Fuzhen in operating Line to Zuckerberg, making good use of the space on Facebook's social, gaming and application platforms.

Zuckerberg's eyes lit up and he thought it would be a great tool to attract traffic, so he agreed to open the API without hesitation.

"Penguin will launch a new game recently, "Plants vs. Zombies," and Facebook can try to do a linkage. If it is a big success, it can even launch an exclusive new series and focus the gameplay on social media. What do you think?"

Lu Fei added milk to his coffee and slowly stirred it.

"I have no opinion."

Sean Parker pursed his lips, now completely convinced. Even without him and Mr. Lu alone to protect him, Zuckerberg would hardly go astray. No wonder he could let Saverin act like a monster.

Lord, I don’t care at all!

"I don't have a problem with it either. This is such a cool idea!"

Zuckerberg whistled and couldn't wait for "Plants vs. Zombies" to be launched as soon as possible. "Lu, I'm thinking again, why don't you just buy Facebook! Facebook could be what it is today, and it is indispensable for your contribution.

Me, Sean and Moskowitz are all willing to work under you, as long as we can get stock options."

"No! Facebook is your idea and your career."

Lu Fei immediately smelled the temptation and refused solemnly, saying that if you are good at making money in America, it will be of no use!

Talk about power! Talk about background!

Facebook is in deep trouble. If the FBI intervenes in a single donkey-elephant election, it is not something that ordinary people can grasp. In any case, a substitute is needed to take the blame for him.

Zuckerberg, this substitute must be you!

"Lu, I really mean it."

Zuckerberg's eyes were as wide as a lizard's.

I believe you as a ghost!

Lu Fei looked at each other, "Me too, Mark, we are sincere to each other. I just gave you a gentle push in your great career. It is my honor to witness your infinite potential being stimulated."

Zuckerberg and Sean Parker looked at each other, their eyes communicating silently, with profound meaning in their eyes.

Lu Fei looked left and right, "But you have to make it clear to me, how are you going to get Saverin out?"

"no problem!"

Zuckerberg took a deep breath and said, "We need to dilute Saverin's shares. When the dilution reaches a certain level, we can drive him out of the company."

"How to do it?" Lu Fei asked.

"Peter Seale gave me advice. A company must be reorganized. The new company must obtain financing without Saverin's signature, and then acquire the old Facebook. The next step is to distribute new shares to everyone except Saverin.

This will naturally dilute his shares."

Zuckerberg told the truth about their careful planning.

Lu Fei squinted his eyes. He never expected that Zuckerberg would actually do the opposite. In the old Facebook ownership structure, he held 26%, Saverin 22.2%, Moskowitz 5%, and Zuckerberg 5%.

Berg 46.8%.

As for the new company, Lu Fei holds 20%, Zuckerberg holds 40%, Moskowitz holds 8.5%, Saverin holds 30%, and the remaining shares are reserved as employee option awards.

Zuckerberg was very excited: "Lu, don't think that we have lost 6% of our shares and Saverin has gained 7.8%. The nature of the stocks we hold is different from his!"

Lu Fei said: "What's the difference?"

"Both your and Mark's shares are preferred shares with structural anti-dilution features and structural conversion rights, while 30% of Edward's shares are just ordinary shares."

Sean Parker bluntly said that this was a bait to induce Saverin to sign the agreement. If he wanted to get so many shares, he would have to give up all his intellectual property rights to the new company, and he would also have to hand over the stock rights to Zuckerberg.

.

"I understand."

Lu Fei suddenly realized that by giving Saverin all his voting rights to Zuckerberg as a proxy, the shareholders' meeting could initiate proposals for capital increase and share expansion in his absence.

"That's right! After that, we will continue to issue 9 million common shares. I will get 3.3 million shares, and the shares will return to 51%. Sean and you can get 1.5 million and 2.5 million shares."

Zuckerberg smiled triumphantly.

As expected of a lizard man, his attacks are sure and ruthless!

Lu Fei took a sip of coffee. If they issued additional shares according to their plan, his shares would be 28.3%, which is 2.3% more, while Saverin would be reduced to less than 10%.

"This is not what I want, but it is completely Edward who forced me to do this. He is holding Facebook back, so Lu, you will support me, right?"

Zuckerberg blinked his innocent eyes.

"This is the business card of my exclusive lawyer, Saul Goodman. If Edward has any confrontational legal actions, you can go to him. He is very professional!"

Lu Fei's support is of course not for the 2.3% petty profit, but for the 20% A-class shares that can prevent two rounds of dilution.

"Thank you, Lu."

Zuckerberg accepted the business card excitedly, and then chatted for two more cups of coffee, when Ivanka happened to walk in carrying shopping bags.

They parted ways, and looking at Zuckerberg's back, Lu Fei couldn't help but sigh: "I used to look very innocent, but I didn't expect that he is so vicious and he is not even 22 years old."

"Aren't you only 22?"

Ivanka rolled her eyes, "Will he be as successful as you?"

Lu Fei said: "He may be called 'America Lu' in the future, and a biopic movie can be made based on him, just like Bill Gates and Steve Jobs."

"I think I should make one of yours first," Ivanka said.

"Haha, I won't let Hollywood film it."

Lu Fei curled his lips, just Shangqi's virtue and deliberately distorted aesthetics of Asians, go away, qtmd!

Ivanka sensed his displeasure and teased in a low voice: "I bought some very sexy underwear, including the ones you want from Victoria's Secret."

"Um!"

Lu Fei looked up and down and said with a smile: "I think I should make a movie for you." He didn't say the second half of the sentence, a short movie with "avi" in it.
