Chapter 2011 Annoyance
After getting on the shuttle bus in the parking lot, Amanda was so excited that she couldn't stop, "Dad, look," "Brother, look,"
She pointed at the entrance of Disneyland under the blue sky, and the looming spires in the park through the gaps in the trees trimmed like pagodas.
Vincent pulled his sister several times and made a "hush" gesture to her, but the little girl just couldn't calm down.
Feng Yiping really felt that his two children seemed to have opposite personalities. The son was delicate and quiet, while the daughter was bold and naughty.
But when they entered the park, Vincent showed another side of himself, "I want to ride this," "I want to play this,"
All of them were the most exciting and courageous rides in the park. To be honest, Feng Yiping rode the famous roller coaster here twice, and his legs were a little weak.
As for the girls, Collins forced himself to ride it once, and his face turned green.
But it was not only Collins who had a green face, but also Whitman. "Did the Skype board of directors specifically affirm Feng Yiping's work?"
"Yes, this is the news from NEXTDOOR,"
This is naturally the news spread by Feng Yiping. Such a small trick is not a problem for him now.
"We have confirmed that the source of the news is more than one person," the assistant looked at Whitman's face, and his voice became smaller and smaller.
Is this strong woman's face green?
"You go down," Whitman said something that made her feel like she was pardoned.
In fact, there is no need to cross-check the authenticity of such news, because Whitman knows without thinking that Feng Yiping will not spread such rumors anyway.
Her face is indeed a little green. It seems that the Skype board of directors really doesn't care about Feng Yiping's use of the power in his hands to seek personal gain.
Fortunately, Feng Yiping did not release the other half of the news. If she knew that the Skype board of directors had offered Feng Yiping such incentives in order to increase the final selling price, her face would have turned green like a bitter gourd.
She slapped the table angrily, "How can this be?"
After her full lobbying, the board of directors finally approved her proposal that the company transfer part of its shares to Feng Yiping and let him become a member of the PayPal board of directors.
She had originally planned to tell Feng Yiping the good news in person today, but now, she is a little hesitant.
It can be said that meeting the conditions for Feng Yiping to become a member of the PayPal board of directors is her trump card, and it is also the condition that she feels can be presented most, but according to the attitude of the Skype board of directors, she thinks that this news should be postponed for a while before telling Feng Yiping.
Because it is obvious that with such clear support from the Skype board of directors, Feng Yiping's conditions should continue to increase, and it should not be a good choice to release one's trump card too early.
To be honest, facing this situation, Whitman, who has always been tough, felt particularly helpless. She had never experienced such a negotiation before. It can be said that this was a negotiation that could only be slaughtered.
Feng Yiping! It's all Feng Yiping!
If it weren't for Feng Yiping's support, how could Skype be so proud and arrogant?
Whitman felt that she had said some things too much at the beginning. Otherwise, giving up now, or pretending to give up, would at least be an option.
However, she had used words such as "critical" and "indispensable" to convince the board of directors to support her acquisition of Skype, and just got the board of directors to agree to open core and high-quality assets such as PayPal to Feng Yiping.
At this moment, what would the board of directors think of her if she said she would stop the acquisition of Skype?
Such a big thing, you treat it as a joke?
She slapped the table again, and couldn't help cursing.
…………
Not everyone is as entangled as Whitman.
Mayer, who has become the most popular female Silicon Valley executive in the United States and will replace Whitman as the queen of Silicon Valley in the future, couldn't help but smile when she thought of the guy Whitman hated so much.
She was in a meeting in a conference room at this time.
This is a conference room with Google characteristics.
The walls are made of logs, with huge whiteboards on two sides and a large screen on one side. The smooth cement floor is filled with several paintings of different sizes, which are formed by jet-like color bands from the center to the surroundings.
In the middle of the conference room, there is only a table about the size of a coffee table, and there are several pillows in the shape of Google's logo letters piled next to it.
Mayer sat on a red stool with her legs crossed, and her back was cushioned by the yellow "O" in the Google logo.
The middle-aged Indian man with brown glasses who was presenting his plan to the big screen felt very uneasy when he saw the smile on Mayer's face at this time.
Because in such a discussion meeting, Mayer rarely smiled like this, and it was common for her to smile mockingly.
Anything out of the ordinary is a demon!
"...This is our design," he finally said, pointing to the logo on the screen.
It was a round ball with blue and white stripes and a shadow on the lower left, which was the logo of Google Earth. Such work was naturally in the charge of Mayer.
Mayer became serious at this time. After looking at it for a while, she pointed to the blue ribbon and said, "I hope this blue is not the same blue. I hope you can try to use a gradient blue."
She stood up and said, "Okay, in 48 hours, I hope to see a new plan."
Well, watching Mayer holding her head high and walking out of the conference room with documents and a laptop, the engineers wailed in their hearts again. The efforts of the past two days were all in vain!
It is estimated that more than the efforts of the past two days will be in vain. The results of the work in the next two days will probably need to be adjusted again.
However, many of them also felt at ease. The Mayer who listened to their reports with a smile on his face made them collectively feel uneasy. Such a cold-blooded, picky, and very attentive to trivial details of Mayer is the Mayer they are familiar with.
Mayer, who was criticized by his subordinates, returned to his office, packed up his desk in a few seconds, and walked out in a hurry with his bag.
In the car, she frequently looked at the watch, but she did not go home. She drove directly to San Francisco International Airport.

In Los Angeles, in the evening, Old Merback also received the news released by Feng Yiping. Even though the old man was very calm, he couldn't help but frowned tightly at this time. It seemed that this was very difficult!
Although at this time, the feedback from the team responsible for contacting MySpace was relatively optimistic, people are like this. The less they can get, the better they think.
Moreover, Skype is indeed much better than MySpace in many explicit and implicit indicators. The number of users of one is getting closer and closer to 200 million, while the other is only over 10 million.
"Facebook, are you still indifferent to our contact with MySpace?" he asked.
"Feng Yiping has been busy adjusting Marvel these two days. Today, it seems that he should discuss the cooperation between Marvel and his other companies, because Hastings of Netflix and Randolph of YouTube have arrived in Los Angeles today."
"At noon, they held a small-scale meeting with Palmat and Feige at Feng Yiping's home."
"However, this morning, Zuckerberg, the young man he most values in Facebook, who is in charge of the Indian market and has achieved remarkable results, also arrived with him."
"Oh," Murdoch was more energetic now. It sounded like good news.
It seemed that Feng Yiping finally noticed the possible consequences of their acquisition of MySpace, so he summoned his capable subordinates to discuss.
But Skype!
Looking at the number of users approaching 200 million marked behind it, Murdoch couldn't help but feel a little itchy in his heart. That would be at least 200 million users!
"Prepare for what areas Fox and Marvel can cooperate in. Note that it is a win-win cooperation," he ordered.
"Okay sir, I'll prepare it right away," the assistant replied.
Old Murdoch called his wife, "I think it's time to invite Mr. Feng to dinner."
"Really?" Mrs. Murdoch sounded a little happy, "Chinese or Western food, at home or in a restaurant outside?"
"You know him better, you decide."
At this time, the happy garden party in Disneyland has officially begun, and Feng Yiping finally took off his sunglasses.
In fact, with his current appearance, he doesn't have to worry about being recognized.
No one would associate the young father with a child riding on his neck and holding another child in his arms with Feng Yiping.
Perhaps, many people would not think that he is a father, he should be a nanny who is billed by the hour.
