Chapter 2713: Singing the Opposite Tune

Seeing Feng Yiping looking at her, Mrs. Murdoch was slightly flustered, "Mr. Feng, I'm sorry..."

Feng Yiping had already turned away, as if he had not heard her two words, chatting comfortably with Murdoch, "I saw the special feature on the Olympics on News Corporation's official website, it was very good,"

"It has to be said that in the field of news, traditional companies are still powerful,"

Mrs. Murdoch didn't know what to do at this time.

Although Feng Yiping was smiling just now, it was his laughter that made her a little scared.

Murdoch glanced at his wife and nodded heavily to Feng Yiping, "This is our most important topic this year. Of course we will do a good job."

"I can say with certainty that in the field of journalism, our professional standards will always be the best in the industry,"

Once you get acquainted with him, you will know that this gentleman, who is no longer young, is a person who is very eager to win. He does not often show such qualities as humility.

Blair glanced at Mrs. Murdoch, who was a little embarrassed, and said with a smile, "Rupert, it's hard to say. Even I know that Feng is also working hard in the news industry. Look at Facebook's progress in this area, and his Regarding the achievements of Twitter, which has been acquired, I heard that Bloomberg has also agreed to Feng’s investment?”

"And we all know that Feng's purpose in entering a traditional industry must be to change it,"

Murdoch glanced at his wife again, and Feng Yiping had already raised his glass to him with a smile, "But Rupert, you are not worried about what I will do, are you?"

"Of course," Murdoch clinked glasses with him, "of course you can work hard in the field of journalism, but haven't I also developed well in the Internet and social fields?"

"The development is great, but it can be even better," Feng Yiping gave a thumbs up.

"Your news is good, but it could be better," Murdoch replied.

The two exchanged commercial compliments and laughed together.

This was an outcome that Blair did not expect.

"Feng," Murdoch approached Feng Yiping, "Sun..."

You also know that he and I do not honor our feelings.

But Feng Yiping shook his head calmly, "You are worrying too much, it doesn't matter at all,"

"Sun Ke and I are not just competitors, we have also had a very harmonious cooperation,"

"Besides, in our country, there is a saying," he said four words in Mandarin, "It's up to the guest to do whatever he wants," he said in Mandarin.

Mrs. Murdoch, whose face had just improved, heard this, and her smile froze again.

Feng Yiping didn't care. This was completely clear dissatisfaction.

Of course Feng Yiping was dissatisfied.

As a party person, Mrs. Murdoch must know a lot about how to throw a good party.

And even housewives who have little experience in this area definitely know one rule, that is, if you want the party to be successful, you must never invite guests who conflict with the guest of honor.

But she made such a stupid mistake this time.

This is obviously not the behavior of a qualified hostess.

In fact, Feng Yiping wanted to get up and leave just now, but in a flash he thought, why should I leave?

In the eyes of some people, it would appear that he lacked confidence and that he had done something wrong.

Just when the hostess was about to explain and the male host was about to ask him what he meant by that sentence, Son Zhengyi had already walked in accompanied by the service staff.

Speaking of which, the reason why he could not enjoy the host's greeting was also because Feng Yiping held back the host and hostess.

He burst out laughing at the door, "Rupert, my friend,"

Everyone stood up, Feng Yiping also stood up, but he then took out his mobile phone and walked to the window, "Well, you said... um... what... oh..."

After Sun Zhengyi finished exchanging warm greetings with the three people, he was still holding his mobile phone and turning his back to everyone and kept mumbling.

What surprised and amused Murdoch was more than that, because as soon as he sat down, Sun Zhengyi talked about the same topic as Feng Yiping, "Rupert, you did a great job with your Olympic special topic."

"Thank you," Murdock said.

"Coincidentally, that's what Feng said just now," Blair laughed.

"Really?" Sun Zhengyi glanced at Feng Yiping, "It seems that Feng and I really have highly consistent views on many issues."

"I don't quite agree with your statement," Feng Yiping covered the phone and turned his head, "but I agree that you will indeed make similar decisions and actions after me,"

This almost pointed at Son’s nose and said, you are a shameless plagiarist.

Son is not embarrassed, "This is probably because there is always a time difference between us when making those decisions,"

Throwing the blame on jet lag is indeed an extremely shameless example.

"Feng, have you finished your call?"

Feng Yiping immediately turned around again, "Well, I'm listening..."

Murdoch glanced at his wife again, and Mrs. Murdoch moved her butt awkwardly, recommending the fruit on the table to the guests, "This is fruit picked from our own orchard in Australia,"

At this moment, she really regretted why she rashly accepted Sun Zhengyi's proposal and tried to reconcile him and Feng Yiping.

She also knew clearly at this time that Feng Yiping and the others were really not in a position to interfere with each other at this level.

"Thank you," Masayoshi Son glanced at Feng Yiping, "Rupert, I don't know if MySpace has any new ideas for renewing the online advertising cooperation agreement. I just want to tell you that Yahoo feels that, judging from the development in the past two years, MySpace is completely worthy of a better partner..."

"Puff," a familiar chuckle came from the window.

Everyone looked back and saw that Feng Yiping still didn't look back, still talking to the phone, "You know, what you said is very funny," - it sounds like a response to Masayoshi Son's words.

Masayoshi Son laughed a little unnaturally at this time, and Feng Yiping's meaning against him was very obvious.

"I roughly know about your cooperation with Google. I think that in this regard, Google's bid is completely inconsistent with your strength and their strength," he continued.

Blair turned into a spectator, sitting aside and watching the show with a smile.

Even for him, such a show of super-rich people tearing each other apart is rarely seen.

Murdoch was very interested in Son's topic. "We are also preparing for new negotiations with Google and meeting with other possible partners, so I am very interested in hearing your offer on behalf of Yahoo,"

Fox Interactive Media, the parent company of ySpace, signed a three-year advertising agreement with Google.

According to the contract, if MySpace reaches a certain number of search page views, Google will pay a deposit to MySpace to become the exclusive search technology and text advertising provider of MySpace.

That is, Google can hang small ads and search boxes on MySpace pages.

The deposit for the first year is $50 million, and if the growth meets the requirements, it will increase by 25% every year thereafter.

Because MySpace developed well last year, in the third quarter of last year, they had already received a deposit of $75 million for the 2007-2008 fiscal year.

Feng Yiping also actively participated in the opinions on this plan, so how could he tolerate Son's criticism?

Son Masayoshi smiled softly, "I think that considering MySpace's performance and growth momentum, the annual deposit for the relevant advertising agreement is at least more than 150 million US dollars."

This guy doubled the offer again!

Murdoch smiled when he heard his offer. If this is true, it means that MySpace's annual revenue will increase by an additional 100 million US dollars in the future.

Mrs. Murdoch's eyes lit up when she heard the offer. You know, she also made a lot of efforts in the acquisition of MySpace.

Especially when deciding whether to acquire, she took the lead in expressing her support.

Son Masayoshi's offer undoubtedly made her feel proud.

"Puff," another chuckle came from the window.

This time, Son Masayoshi did not look back, but he heard footsteps stop behind him, and then someone said, "I disagree with this statement,"

But he did not feel annoyed, because he clearly saw that after hearing this, the expressions of the host couple were somewhat uncontrollably ugly.

Haha, don't you know that if you say this, I will not be the one who disagrees the most?

"Feng," he stood up and held out his hand, "Did you finally finish your call?"

Feng Yiping held out his hand, but did not shake his hand. Instead, he picked up the wine glass on the table and greeted him lightly, "Hi, Sun,"

"Sun, your wine," Mrs. Murdoch took the opportunity to pass the wine to Son's embarrassed hand.

"Feng, do you still think Google's offer is appropriate?" Murdoch asked.

Feng Yiping shook his head, "No, I mainly think that Sun's offer is inappropriate,"

Son Zhengyi smiled, "I insist that MySpace should get a higher return,"

Feng Yiping snapped his fingers, "See, that's why I don't agree with your offer, 150 million is not enough, I think it should be at least 200 million US dollars!"

"Ah?"
