Chapter 3013 Consolidation (Part 2)

Cummins followed Mayer to Feng Yiping's office, feeling both excited and overwhelmed.

Overwhelmed, as mentioned before, this is a series of very difficult tasks, excited, of course, because this is a rare opportunity.

If all the negotiations in this regard are completed by them, then this will also create a record. How many people can play a key role in the listing of so many companies?

As soon as Feng Yiping opened his mouth, he added a burden to him, "We welcome everyone to invest, whether he is from Wall Street or Sand Hill Road, whether they are investment banks or venture capital, or other companies and institutions,"

"But the principle is that we refuse to accept the request for our company's equity in cash, and it is best to exchange it for equivalent equity in other companies they hold,"

Feng Yiping knew that if he opened the door now, he would lose money anyway, so the best way, of course, is to take this opportunity to hold shares in other companies that also have great growth potential.

Cummins nodded, "I understand, but..."

Feng Yiping understood his concerns, "You really can't handle it, leave it to me,"

This sentence greatly alleviated Cummins's worries, and his eyes were full of excitement. In this way, although there is a lot of work, there will be fewer situations that he can't handle.

"Then Feng, I need a list of companies that you most want to hold equity in,"

Feng Yiping was prepared for this, he took a folder, "Here you go,"

Cummins immediately clenched it tightly with his hands, he understood the significance of the companies listed in this folder.

If nothing unexpected happens, this will be a list of the best investments.

"Go back and prepare, I think someone will arrive soon,"

"Okay Feng," Cummins took the folder, as if holding a magic trick, and waited for those guys to come to the door with a heroic spirit.

…………

"Are you really sure you want to do this?" Mayer asked.

It seemed that Feng Yiping was generous, but she was reluctant.

"Don't worry, how can I do a loss-making business?"

"You have to understand that we are not paying a price by doing this, but we are welcoming more opportunities," Feng Yiping comforted her, "Who am I? I am the idol of all entrepreneurs, I am the father of your son, and I am Feng Yiping who will turn all problems into opportunities,"

Mayer was speechless. How many narcissistic people are there in the world?

"Give you a lamp, and you can illuminate the whole world!"

"At least, it will be larger than the place illuminated by the torch in the hand of the Statue of Liberty," Feng Yiping said without any modesty.

"This is really a good opportunity. You know I like Apple, Google, and many other companies' stocks in the world. How much do you think we can absorb with this opportunity?" He waved his arms and said.

He had no doubt that the future returns of some of these company shares might be greater than the increase in his company's stock price.

"Will they agree?" Mayer asked.

Those people are all smart people.

"They will definitely agree," Feng Yiping said, "think about what we have in our hands?"

Let alone other things, just Facebook, who wouldn't be jealous?

"Facebook is put last," Feng Yiping said, motioning Mayer to come over, "I am confident that it will be on par with Google in the future,"

Mayer couldn't help but roll her eyes at him, "Otherwise, why do you think I came from Google?"

"Isn't it because of me?" Feng Yiping was a little unhappy.

His own attractiveness is not as good as his own company, tell me about this...

But Mayer was not interested in chatting with him, "Then I think you have some work to do,"

"I know," Feng Yiping, who was a little frustrated, collapsed on the sofa, "You will hear good news soon,"

…………

Rubin, who kept getting up and sitting down downstairs, was finally allowed to go upstairs. He hurriedly trotted into the elevator. As soon as he got out of the elevator, he couldn't help shouting, "Feng,"

"So excited?" Feng Yiping looked at Rubin's red face and sweat on his forehead

"I came here," said Rubin. "Feng, tell me, what can I do?"

"I have always believed that we should do both software and hardware. You know, in China, we have already had good practices and are carrying out multiple new projects simultaneously,"

Rubin thought to himself that this is exactly what I don't understand. We obviously have very good strength in this area, but you have not let me try.

Even now that Motorola has been acquired, you don't want me to try.

"It's not that we can't make smartphones, but now is not the best opportunity," said Feng Yiping. "It's not that we can't do it, nor are we worried that other hardware manufacturers will have opinions. The main reason is, Rubin, who do you think should be our main competitor if we want to make smartphones?"

"Apple!" Rubin said without hesitation.

What's the point of competing with other Android companies? If Android wants to make mobile phones, it must benchmark Apple.

"So, do you think that the smartphones we produce can really challenge Apple?"

"I firmly believe it!" Rubin said with his head held high.

"No," Feng Yiping shook his head, "Rubin, you think too simply,"

"We all know that Apple's success comes from their integration of software and hardware, but knowing this, are you sure that we can do as well as Apple?"

"I don't think so,"

"Think about it, Apple has more than 30 years of experience in top-down hardware and software integration. How can the accumulation in this area be as simple as we think?"

"Besides, we must admit that the strength of Apple's design team, of course, is mainly the creativity of Jobs,"

Although he still has a lot of opinions about Jobs, Rubin has to admit that Jobs is not an ordinary guy.

But I came here excitedly to listen to you talk about opportunities, not to let you hit me again.

Feng Yiping obviously didn't forget this, "I hope that in this regard, you can calm down for the time being and don't rush for success,"

Those who are eager to imitate Apple will definitely end up with ugly imitations.

"In order to produce mobile phones that can compete with the iPhone in the future, we should make more basic preparations now. Fortunately, the acquisition of Motorola can strengthen our capabilities in this regard,"

"But I think the first question you should think about is the future development direction of smartphones, such as whether the screen will become larger or smaller? Which functions will become more and more important?"

"After making these preparations in a targeted manner, the mobile phones we produce can be successful at the right time in the future..."

"Feng, do you mean that I can start these preparations now?" Rubin asked with shining eyes.

Looking at his appearance, Feng Yiping didn't know whether he had listened to his other words.

"Yes, I allow you to prepare now, but don't you want to hear about other opportunities?"

"Sorry," Rubin scratched his head, "Of course I want to hear,"

"I think, for smartphones, we are just preparing for the time being, but tablets may not be a project,"

"Really?" Rubin stood up in a flash.

This is also good!

By the way, even Amazon has attracted a lot of attention with Kindle, why can't Android?

"Don't get excited," Feng Yiping smiled and asked him to sit down, "I mainly feel that all the tablets nowadays are not very satisfactory,"

"Look," he picked up one, "very light, the display effect is also first-class, but it is mainly only suitable for leisure scenes,"

"Look, you like it very much, but in fact, there are not many opportunities to use it,"

"But the laptop is much heavier than it..."

"But we can't do without it," Rubin said along with his meaning.

"Yes," Feng Yiping nodded, "So, can we design a product that combines the two main features of tablet lightness and notebook as a productivity tool?"

"That is to say, it can be both a tablet and a notebook,"

Sorry Microsoft, I think your Surface Pro should be under development at this time, but I want to intercept it.

Faced with such a question, Rubin, a science and engineering man, immediately pondered, obviously thinking about what kind of solution is best.

"Go back and think about it carefully," Feng Yiping said, "Come and talk to me when you have an idea."

Just then his cell phone rang, and he looked at it. It was Cook's. "Feng," Cook's voice was not clear whether he was happy or unhappy, but what he said made Feng Yiping very happy, "The board of directors approved the proposal for a private placement."

This news came at the perfect time!
