Chapter 2675 Olympic Games Cars

"So you just backed down and let Microsoft take advantage of it?"

Leaning on Xiao Qi's body, Little Meiji said lazily while holding Bu'er in her arms.

Bu'er, who is already ten months old, only passed milk last month. On the one hand, Tang Mingxiang dotes on her, and on the other hand, Xiao Meiji's milk is too much, which has always been sufficient to supply her daughter with food. .

It was the persuasion of the Japanese aunts, saying that the child should be able to slowly switch to other staple foods at this time. Although breast milk is very good, the consumption of cloth will increase in the future, and it must not be satisfied forever.

So Tang Mingxiang could only ask Bu'er to eat some fruit and vegetable puree, rice porridge and rice soup.

But it seems that the little girl is not used to it yet. From time to time, she wants to rub against her mother's chest. When sleeping, she also needs to rest her little head on it to feel comfortable.

Holding his wife in his arms and his daughter in his arms again, such a beautiful feeling made Xiao Qi feel lazy all over, and he somewhat hoped that time could last forever like this.

"Well, in life, how can we always be tough? If you have to give in, then give in, and if you have to admit defeat, then admit defeat." Xiao Qi said with a smile, "Besides, we didn't lose money. Look at the news in the newspapers these two days, But it’s all a satire that Microsoft is too big to pay such a high price for a company that is destined to be investigated and tortured! They all say that we make a lot of money!”

"It's not about money, okay?" Tang Mingxiang rolled her husband's eyes, "We are forced to sell SKYPE, those bastards in Europe are really going too far! I'm worried that Chose girl will also be suppressed by them Woolen cloth!"

"That's not going to happen." Xiao Qi shook his head, "The nature is different. Chose girl has involved thousands of small and medium-sized businesses in the country where Chose girl is located. If Chose girl is disposed of, it will destroy the jobs of those small and medium-sized businesses. In this financial crisis, In the 1980s, if they didn't even have food to eat, there would be big problems. Moreover, there were many people who benefited, and they were all from their own country, which made them not disturbed.

SKYPE is at a disadvantage. Its one company can span the distance of time and space, and almost without any help from the country where it is located, it can set up a communication company by itself and start making money. such a low cost. Of course, low charges will be created, thereby suppressing their local communication industry. Besides, the communication industry is not for food, even if SKYPE is touched, the public's reaction will not be too big. This is an important reason why those giants want to rectify SKYPE. "

Tang Mingxiang tapped Fenzhen lightly, "What about Microsoft? Can they withstand the pressure?"

"Of course!" Xiao Qi said, "Microsoft is unique in software. It has a lot of cooperation with the US military industry and national defense, and Microsoft is also a symbol of the US electronic software industry. Naturally, they will get the full support of the US. The EU The investigation over there, at best, is to reach an agreement with Microsoft in the future, so that they can monitor the content of these communications, but I dare not really cut off Microsoft's SKYPE service."

"They are really lucky!" Tang Mingxiang laughed.

"I want our luck to be as good as theirs. Naturally, we must start from ourselves and work hard." Xiao Qi sighed, "South America belongs to the United States, and Africa belongs to Europe. Now the only thing we can fight for in China , that is, those countries in Southeast Asia. However, in these countries, the situation is very complicated, and the road ahead is still very long!"

"You don't go into politics, and Dad doesn't know how to take up relevant positions. You don't have to worry. Leave it to the big bosses in the government to do it!" Tang Mingxiang said indifferently.

Tang Mingxiang is of course not interested in the overall layout of the country. What she cares about is her husband, daughter and her own career.

In fact, about Fairy Company announced an agreement with Microsoft. After acquiring SKYPE at a price of 11 billion US dollars, except for Xiao Qi's wives, most of the rest thought that Xiao Qi had done another beautiful business.

Because SKYPE has become a hot potato now, if Fairy Company is in your hands, it will definitely depreciate more and more.

And to be able to sell at such a high price, for Fairy Company. Of course it's a good thing.

After all, SKYPE has nothing to do with the main business of Xiannv Company.

What many people don’t know is that because Xiao Qi’s two major companies controlling SKYPE, Mingxiang Holdings and Qicai Investment, both belong to the international offshore financial zone and are not registered in the United States at all. In addition, Microsoft also used some Tax avoidance policy, international accounting firm helped Xiao Qi avoid tax, so Xiao Qi sold SKYPE to pay taxes to the US government, not the legendary 50%, but only about 9%.

So Xiao Qi actually got 10 billion US dollars in cash, which can be regarded as a bargain.

The couple were chatting about each other here, when suddenly the phone rang.

Xiao Qi got up helplessly and picked up the phone. After looking at who it was, he answered the phone, "Hi, I'm Xiao Qi."

"Qi Shao, let me tell you some good news!" Li Bote over there said loudly, "Our Uber has successfully won the special vehicle project for the London Olympics!"

"Really?" Xiao Qi asked in surprise.

"Hehe, can I still lie to you? After several months of hard work, this matter has finally been settled. The London Olympic Organizing Committee has just called me, and the official document will be signed tomorrow! "Libert said, "In this way, our Uber can finally go out of the United States and go to Europe!"

The population of Europe is small, about 1 billion as a whole, and it is not as good as China and India.

But most of these people are wealthy people, and there are also several very large urban agglomerations with tens of millions of residents living in them.

Such as London, Paris, Berlin, Madrid, Rome and so on.

Uber’s favorite place to do business is a densely populated metropolis. Such an urban agglomeration can carry a lot of business and allow Uber to develop better.

However, the opportunity to enter these super metropolises is still not so easy.

They are all the same as New York, license plates, taxi companies, etc., all have great economic ties. You, an online taxi company from the United States, go in and grab the market and profits, which is even more intolerable than SKYPE!

So Libote came up with a way to take advantage of the opportunity of the London Olympics to allow London Olympics-related departments and sports teams to use Uber for free, and then rely on this good reputation to completely open up the London market.

As long as he has a firm foothold in London, Liebert will not be afraid.

Even New York has fallen, are you still afraid of London?

That's why he was so happy after getting the reply from the London Olympic Committee, and quickly called Xiao Qi to announce the good news.

As everyone knows, Xiao Qi knew this result a long time ago, because Uber in the previous life also used the same trick to win the free car project in the Olympic Games, and then began to flourish in the European continent.

Of course, part of the reason is that Uber’s public relations are in place, but the biggest reason is that the London Olympic Committee is too poor. There is such a big guy who takes care of the car service and saves them tens of millions of pounds. , They are very eager, so why do they care about what lures wolves into the house?

"The next step is for us to start trial operation in London. At least before the Olympics, there will be no problem. It will depend on our own performance during this period." Li Bote said sternly.

Many people feel that only Huaguo attaches so much importance to the Olympics, which makes them very nervous.

In fact, this is not the case. Every country and city that hosts the Olympic Games attaches equal importance to it. This is also related to the face of the country and the city. If something goes wrong, it will definitely embarrass the host.

Therefore, as long as you enter in the name of an Olympic sponsor, Uber will be unimpeded in London. Even if there is any trouble, the London Olympic Organizing Committee will help you out. Let the sponsors chill.

Xiao Qi nodded when he heard the words, "If you have any difficulties, you can go to Branson from the Virgin Group. He is quite capable in the UK."

"Okay!" Libert also had a bottom line in his heart. Branson is the richest man in the UK and has a strong network. The more support Uber can get in the UK, the more secure it will be.

It's not that Uber doesn't have other public relations countermeasures, but with the strong support of the boss, they will have more countermeasures to avoid difficulties in the implementation process.

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Qi smiled.

Although you, the European Union, can make me so embarrassed on SKYPE, I have plenty of ways to occupy your market.

Although Uber has a lot of controversy and trouble in terms of law, its appearance is closely related to people's daily life, and it is also a relief to urban congestion.

So even though there are many people who are against Uber, there are also many people who support Uber.

As long as Xiao Qi can hold on to his pursuit of profits, and use a large amount of profits to support the construction of public transportation facilities as in the United States, then even in those big cities in the European Union, he will not encounter as many people as Uber encountered in his previous life. difficulty.

At that time, Uber will gradually grow up and become a new Internet success story, that is just around the corner.

It's just a pity that many of Uber's shares will be sold to others, and their power will be used to resist the counterattack of taxi interest groups.

Otherwise, Xiao Qi alone owns this super-large Internet company worth more than 100 billion US dollars, which is definitely something that makes people envious and jealous! (~^~)
