Chapter 1157 New Experience for Veteran Driver

At Google's regular meeting on Monday morning, after listening to Schmidt's latest progress on the listing work, Page asked Feng Yiping for his opinion, "Feng, what do you have to add, and what aspects do you think need to be strengthened?"

"I have two suggestions,"

"Oh," even Schmidt immediately picked up the pen. They didn't have too many opinions on such a big matter.

"First of all, can we consider choosing one in Canada as our underwriter? I think everyone has already felt the pressure from the investment banks on Wall Street, right?"

"We adopt auction-style pricing and set a low issuance fee, but we have indirectly and directly snatched two pieces of cake from their mouths at once. How can they be happy?"

Because of Google's insistence on auction-style pricing, one investment bank has already withdrawn due to pressure from Wall Street and is no longer responsible for Google's issuance work.

"So I think it's good to choose a strong company in an area where Wall Street has relatively little influence," the three were pondering.

"This is also related to my second point. My second point is, guys, can we not be so confident and just hold a road show in China?"

Page and the others were as proud as ever, even more proud than Feng Yiping remembered.

Because before this time's launch, Google's products were much richer than in the original time and space, not only search, but also browsers, mailboxes, and maps were also being intensively prepared.

Although not all companies in the United States have invested the most in cloud computing projects that provide support for these, for example, in terms of total amount, they are still not as good as Amazon. Amazon was the first to research similar technologies and has always invested heavily, but Google definitely belongs to the group of companies in the United States that have invested a lot in this area.

And it already has many customers, and Feng Yiping's NEXTDOOR is naturally the first one.

Therefore, just like the original time and space, they still insisted on only holding a road show in the United States, so that the emperor's daughter would not have to worry about getting married, and Google's shares would not have to be subscribed for.

Moreover, we are the first company to give such a promising subscription opportunity to ordinary people. How could they not seize such a good opportunity?

They don't know that the public is actually the best to influence and control, especially when the main resistance comes from Wall Street's investment banks with powerful powers and ubiquitous tentacles.

Schmidt glanced at Page and Brin, something he had expressed objections to many times.

"It won't do any harm to make more preparations, no matter how thorough you are, right?"

"If our issue price can be set high, then this is the best publicity, and it also shows that everyone recognizes and affirms our company, right?"

Feng Yiping knew them very well, and they would definitely not be interested in talking about money with these two guys who had dreams of changing the world.

So we must talk about the recognition of the market and users. Sure enough, everyone likes to hear what he says.

At this time, Google did not receive universal recognition. Isn't this what Page and Brin value now?

"The low issue price means there are insufficient subscriptions. Undersubscription means that the market has no confidence in us. The market has no confidence in us. It means there are problems with our products and services... Can you agree with this conclusion?"

"Can all our hard-working engineers accept such a conclusion?" Feng Yiping said these words very quickly, "At the same time, if the issue price is high, this must be the best incentive for employees,"

As a founder, you can talk about your feelings and dreams, but the employees below still have to consider more practical issues. The higher the issuance price, the more valuable their options will be, which is naturally the best incentive.

"Then you think we should do this?" Page asked.

"I think at least one will be held in Canada, two or three in Europe, and at least one in Asia, okay?"

This road show in Asia can only be held in Hong Kong. Going to the mainland will be in vain because ordinary people do not have such investment channels.

What's more, the financial management of most families in China is still at the stage of depositing money in banks. What kind of national debt gold bars and commemorative coins can you buy? It means that you have a high level of financial management. Family financial management will use stocks as a channel. Then It's really rare, so it's really hard to seize such an opportunity.

As for Singapore and RB, Google will naturally be popular, but why should they provide their people with an opportunity to make money?

This time, we still strive to give ordinary people in Hong Kong a chance. In the past, subscriptions were basically done by those wealthy families, and it was not their turn. The online auction-style pricing that Page insisted on this time really gave these ordinary people a chance. .

Besides, I still have considerable influence in Hong Kong, so no one will support me.

"If you can't spare the time, it's okay, I'll run it,"

He really doesn't want a company as good as Google to be like the original time and space, where it almost failed to launch an IPO.

Page did not consult Brin for his opinion this time. Of course, Brin must have the same attitude towards Feng Yiping as him. "I'll leave the road show to you," he said simply.

"You're right, there's no harm in running a few more places. I'll do your best then," Brin patted him on the shoulder.

Schmidt on the side looked a little sad, why should he be treated so clearly? I have said the same thing more than once, but you just don't accept it.

There was nothing he could do about it, he really couldn't envy this.

After the Lake Tahoe meeting, the relationship between Page, Brin and Feng Yiping underwent a qualitative change, which was somewhat like a trinity.

However, Schmidt was not without gains. He found that Feng Yiping was indeed better than himself in persuading Page and Brin.

When he expressed his opinions on the road show issue, he said it from the perspective of the company's chairman and shareholders. The higher the issuance price, the higher the company's financing amount, and more funds will be available for development.

If the issue price is high, the return on investment of shareholders will also be high, and they will naturally be happy.

After all, it's all about money.

No wonder Page and the others were always a little impatient and said, "We'll talk about it later, we'll talk about it later. You've linked their dreams so closely to money. It's normal for them not to be interested."

Feng Yiping started from the user's sense of identity, which is what they care about, and immediately gained their approval. Next time, I will definitely be able to get that point from you, Schmidt thought.

…………

On the way to the office, Feng Yiping was still a little happy. In fact, people at all stages hope to be recognized by others.

Already among the richest people in the world, his seemingly distant dream is becoming a reality step by step, becoming clearer and clearer day by day. To be honest, there is nothing that can make him feel a sense of accomplishment now. Not too much.

Including the fact that the higher Google's issuance price, the richer his net worth.

However, asking Page and Brin to obey their own opinions, no, no, this is not a good word, they should respect their own opinions very much. This kind of thing still makes him feel quite accomplished.

But why is that Gates guy hiding in a corner of Seattle? If he was also in Silicon Valley, he would train him from time to time, oh, this is even more wrong, and give advice to the world's richest man. The sense of accomplishment would definitely be a five-star rating!

After arriving, she sat down in the small office, which was not used very frequently, and prepared to think about the road show. Mayer, who still chose to wear a skirt and put on makeup with obvious care, flashed in with a gust of fragrance.

Suddenly, this small office felt a little green, no, it should feel like spring. It was not as crisp as winter, but a bit like the willow sky in early spring in February.

Mayer held a folder in her hand, sat down opposite him, and glanced at him, "I've been very busy recently, traveling all over North America."

"You are quite busy," Feng Yiping said. "As for you, you have time to put on makeup. It seems that you are not too busy with development work now, right?"

"Does it look good?" Mayer turned his head, "How can we little people get our work done?"

She may want to show sadness, but her character really can't do such a thing, so the sadness becomes something like ogling.

Feng Yiping was a little afraid to look at it, "After Buchanan leaves, Cummins will be in charge for the time being,"

That means the seat is reserved for you.

"Oh, yeah, you have to see this document,"

"What is this, I can't understand. You know, I don't know anything about procedural issues. Here, uh," Feng Yiping suddenly trembled, his hands froze in the air, and then he was speechless.

Under the table, one foot climbed deftly along his thigh.

The door is open, but there are people coming and going outside!

But probably because of this, he felt it was really exciting!

He had seen a lot of plots about the office in the island country's educational films before. Of course, he watched them secretly in the room with headphones on and the lights darkened when the moon was dark and the wind was high, and the night was dark and windy. A real lesson.

No wonder there are so many similar films. After experiencing it for himself, Mr. Feng couldn’t help but sigh sincerely. The effect is indeed incredible!

Now he only feels itchy in the bones all over his body!

If she puts on professional attire, will it be more suitable for the occasion and will the effect be better?

To those passing by outside the office, Mayer, opposite Feng Yiping, seemed to be sitting there peacefully, as if he was reporting something.

Only Feng Yiping could see the amusement in her eyes, as well as a hint of dissatisfaction.

That foot is very flexible. It keeps climbing all the way up and won't stop until it reaches its goal.

On the way up, oh, boy! Feng Yiping quickly shrank back and let the warm foot leave him.

But Mayer has the attributes of a strong woman, her indomitable spirit, which is also in her bones. What’s the big deal if she fails? The worst she can do is start over from scratch!

She immediately started all over again, practicing what perseverance means with her feet.

However, Feng Yiping is a real weakling when it comes to creating an atmosphere, but when it comes to ruining the atmosphere, he is a natural talent.

"Have you washed your feet? Do your feet smell?" he asked.

The gentle and unyielding foot suddenly paused. Mayer's eyes stood up, but he immediately remembered all the things Feng Yiping had done before. This guy always shrank back at critical moments, so he immediately put it on again. With a smile on his face, he moved his toes playfully a few times, "Do you want to smell it? I just run from home to work in the company, and my feet don't smell at all,"

The voice is so waxy and soft.

But Feng Yiping was unmoved, "Then do you wear perfume?"

"Hehe, you guessed it, you sprayed it just now,"

Those were the few clothes I had prepared in my NEXTDOOR. They finally came into use. These pants had to be replaced no matter what.

Feng Yiping has been unable to figure out a problem. It is said that non-smokers are particularly sensitive to smoking, but smokers themselves cannot detect it at all.

But why are women who use perfume so sensitive to perfume?

She also changes to use different perfumes, but as long as there is a little bit of other perfume smell on you, she can still detect it immediately. This is really unscientific and unreasonable.

So Feng Yiping has always been very concerned about this aspect, and must not be lucky!

Besides, the fragrance of the top and jacket can still be explained by reason, but what reason can you find for the pants?

"Oh, you are not," Mayer suddenly covered his mouth, "Are you..., but I don't care,"

"What?" Feng Yiping looked at him puzzledly, what is he talking about?

But after all, he is an old driver, and he still knows some things. He immediately stood up and leaned on the windowsill with his hands, "I don't have this or that fetish,"

"Why do I feel like you are shaking?" Mayer said with a smile, and with a proud look.

"Well, I have an idea. I haven't discussed it with other people yet. I just want to ask for your opinion." He had to change the subject.

"I intend to make a big change to the structure of NEXTDOOR and turn the existing sections into project departments."

With the rapid development of NEXTDOOR, the existing organizational structure can't meet the needs of the sections that are developing better and better, such as group buying and reviews.

"I have to think about it," Mayer said, "Do you want to have lunch at the company at noon?"

"I have an appointment," Feng Yiping was ready to escape.

Mayer looked like he knew you would do this. He picked up the folder on the table that was just a prop, and walked out with a triumphant smile.
