Chapter 682
Feng Yiping was not at all worried that he would not perform well in today's interview-like meeting.
Because what he said today was what the three of them would do later. If so, it must be too late for them to agree. How could they be unconvinced? How could they not feel that what Feng Yiping said was just words and phrases?
However, Feng Yiping's name is Feng Yiping, not Feng Bethune.
Since Page took the initiative to find him, such a good opportunity should not be missed, so the next thing to talk about is the highlight.
"Oh, yes, the salary has not been negotiated yet," Page seemed to suddenly realize, "Do you think this is good, the annual salary...,"
"No, you misunderstood me," Feng Yiping quickly waved his hand, "The most important thing is being able to work together with a few like-minded geniuses to realize your dreams, and it doesn't matter if you don't get paid.
I think the company doesn’t seem to have enough funds at the moment, but personally, I really don’t lack these, "
"Feng, I'm sorry that I was a little skeptical before, but based on what you just analyzed, I even think that you are more competent than me as CEO in terms of company planning." Schmidt now also feels that for their company, Feng Yiping is a rare talent and support.
"You have praised Mr. Schmidt, it's just that I have thought more about this issue, and neither ability nor experience can be compared with yours,"
"You are too modest, Feng. Is this good? Your treatment will be compared to mine? Although you may not care, since you have taken responsibility, you should be rewarded, okay?"
"It's inappropriate, and it's impossible for me to work full-time in the company," Feng Yiping said. "That's not my main concern."
"Feng, speak up about your concerns," Brin said.
"Before I met you, I had established several companies in order to realize my vision. For example, in terms of electronic maps, I acquired deCarta, a technology provider, and invested in NAVTEQ, a content provider for electronic maps. At the same time, my That software company is also developing cloud computing technology, based on the above points, I am worried that there may be a conflict of interest in the future, "
Page now also feels that he is a little too concerned. Feng Yiping is not the ordinary employees he recruited. He already has many companies. According to what he said, it is not that there may be a conflict of interest, but that there will definitely be a conflict of interest. conflict.
"The cloud computing is easy to handle. It's just in preparation, so I can stop it. However, the layout of the electronic map was completed last year," Feng Yiping looked embarrassed.
"This is actually not a problem," Page glanced at Brin and said, "It happens that we also need this technology, so we can acquire deCarta from you, won't it solve it? Your purchase price last year was 3500 Ten thousand US dollars, plus your subsequent investment, we will pay together."
Now, he just wanted to draw Feng Yiping into his team as soon as possible.
Schmidt was a little embarrassed, "Page, the current financial situation of the company..."
Last year, the total revenue was only about 80 million, and the profit was even negative. After the beginning of this year, although the revenue has grown rapidly, 30 to 40 million US dollars is a large amount for Google at this time. No, but after taking out such a large sum of money, it is estimated that the normal operation of the company will become a problem.
"Tsk, that's a hassle," Paige sighed.
"Is the company's financial situation so pessimistic?" Feng Yiping asked.
Schmidt was a little embarrassed, "It's a period of rapid growth, and the expenses in all aspects are too large,"
"That kind of financial situation can't support so many projects we will develop next," Feng Yiping lowered his head and thought for a while, "Page, Mr. Brin, Mr. Schmidt, do you think this is good, deCarta's The purchase price is based on the accounting firm’s calculations—the subsequent investment mainly focused on the development of LBS technology, which we can use when we take it over. I estimate that the total price should be less than 40 million U.S. dollars.”
"In view of the company's current financial situation, I would like to add more than 60 million US dollars in cash on top of this, making a total of 100 million US dollars as my investment in the company.
It’s rare to meet like-minded people like the three of you. I don’t want to stop our pursuit of our dreams because of financial reasons. "
"What do you think? If 100 million is not enough, then 200 million, or 300 to 500 million will do. If you put it together, you can get 1 billion. My current financial situation is good."
Feng Yiping had planned this rhetoric for a long time, and the effect he pursued was that he must not make them feel that he was painstakingly trying to make money from this company, and that he wanted to divide the income that originally belonged to them.
Judging from the reactions of those three, the effect was good.
In particular, Feng Yiping said lightly at the end that one billion can be taken out, and the impact on the three of them at this time is still relatively large.
"One billion?" Page lost focus again.
"Yes, it should be fine. However, if I spend one billion yuan, the Gulfstream private jet I ordered to be delivered in October may not be affordable,"
In short, one purpose is to tell them that my brother is rich, and he doesn't want to take your money, but wants to work with you to realize our dreams faster.
However, it is a little difficult for them to make an immediate decision on such a major investment, because it involves the issue of accounting quota.
"Excuse me, where is the bathroom?" Feng Yiping should give them space to discuss the question he raised, and now Feng Yiping took the initiative to find an excuse to disappear.
Schmidt opened the door, "Shirley," he called, and a girl in the front office area stood up.
"No," Paige gestured, "I'll arrange it," he started dialing, "Feng, are you interested in visiting the current company?"
"Very interesting," Feng Yiping said.
This is the truth, he really wants to see the difference between the current Google office area and the later world-famous office area.
"Marisa, stop by Schmidt's office," Page said into the phone.
Not long after, a beautiful blond woman named Feng Yiping, who had bright eyes, hurriedly opened the door and came in.
Unlike most of the casually dressed employees, she is well-dressed, and very decent and eye-catching. She wears a red silk crew-neck shirt with a black cashmere cardigan on the outside, no pants, and a pair of black pants , a blue knee-length skirt below.
Why does it look familiar?
"President," the beauty greeted Schmidt, nodded to Brin, and then said to Page quickly, "What's the matter, I have a lot of work over there,"
Hehe, this is the first employee that Feng Yiping has seen since he arrived at Google. She is also a beautiful female employee. It's interesting!
"Feng, this is Marissa Mayer, the person in charge of our user interface and web server development, Marisa, this is Feng, the company intends to hire him as the chief strategic advisor, please show Feng around the company,"
Although there may be some stories between the two of them, at this time Page has entered the frantic work mode again, turning a blind eye to the obvious dissatisfaction on the beauty's face.
It was still Schmidt who was old enough to send the two of them outside the office, "Mayer, do you know, Feng is still your alumnus, he is currently an exchange student, studying in a business school, and the company intends to hire him as a vice president level Chief Strategy Consultant, "
"Feng, if you have anything you need to know, please ask Ms. Mayer directly. She is a graduate of your school's computer department. She has more seniority in the company than me. She is the 20th employee hired by the company and the 20th employee A female engineer, of course, as you may have noticed, since then, Miss Mayer, has represented the public face of our company."
"Vice President?" Mayer finally looked at the big green boy, "What grade are you in as a graduate student?"
"You talk," Schmidt smiled and closed the door. Inside, Page and Brin were on the phone, notifying the heads of various departments to come to the meeting.
"I'm currently a junior," Feng Yiping followed behind her, watching her blond hair tremble.
Mayer immediately came to a sudden stop, "Junior? When will the business school recruit students who haven't graduated yet?"
Feng Yiping rushed to the side in some embarrassment. If it wasn't for seeing that there must be something between her and Page, then it must be impolite to bump into her.
"Oh, I'm sorry," the haughty beauty finally knew how to apologize to Feng Yiping.
"It doesn't matter, I was specially approved," Feng Yiping said, "By the way, my name is Yiping, Feng Yiping, and I am studying at the School of Economics and Management of Tsinghua University in China."
The other party stopped again, "Oh, blue ocean strategy, right?"
"Yes, it is a clumsy work,"
This woman is also very efficient, with fast steps and short legs. Feng Yiping caught up with her, walked side by side with her, looked at her for a while, and thought about it seriously, "Miss Mayer, why do I think you look like a girl?" It looks familiar, and the name seems familiar too?"
There was a smile on Mayer's face. She crossed her arms and looked up and down at the young man who was clean, green and tender. It was said that he was about to become a vice president. Is this old fashioned?"
