Chapter 754 Conditions Negotiated (9/10)

Three days later, Bill Gates called Feng Yu. In fact, he made a decision the next day, but he still delayed for two days, lest Feng Yu think he was too eager. ≯≧≥But in fact, three days was much faster than Feng Yu expected.

"Hi, Bill, hi, Paul." Feng Yu was a little surprised that Paul Allen was there.

Although Paul Allen is still Microsoft's second largest shareholder, his main focus is on his own software company. And Paul? Allen likes sports very much. He bought many teams, such as the Portland Trail Blazers in the NBA. In the future, Paul Allen will also buy the Seattle baseball team. He is also known as richest nba owner.

When Paul Allen saw Feng Yu, he also lost his mind for a while. This Feng was too young. When he was the same age as Bill, he was still struggling to start a business, and this Feng already had a net worth of several billion dollars. Is this Feng's money earned by himself? But so what, it's not like I'm rich!

To put forward so many harsh conditions, I have to kill his spirit in a while!

"It seems that I don't need to introduce it." Bill? Gates said with a smile.

"Paul, your Portland Trail Blazers seem to have a hard time winning the championship. Jordan is back, isn't he?" Feng Yu said suddenly.

Damn, if I come in, you'll shake your face. If you make me unhappy, then don't even think about it!

"Who said that? Jordan will come back this year, but he didn't even make it to the Finals! Our Trail Blazers will definitely win the championship within five years!" Paul Allen retorted angrily.

"Really? How about we make a bet? If I can buy a team, then I think my team will win the championship faster than your team." Feng Yu said with a smile.

"You can't buy a team because you're not American! And even if you can get a stake, unless you can get a stake in the Bulls or Rockets, you have no chance!"

"Hey, Paul, Feng, we're here to talk about Microsoft, not the NBA. You guys like to talk about sports, so we can talk about it later." Bill Gates said dissatisfied.

How much is a team, if he wants to buy it, he can buy the entire NBA league! A good team is worth a few hundred million, while an average team is worth less than a hundred million.

That kind of small business, what is there to talk about, Microsoft's big business is the most important!

Paul Allen turned his head resentfully and remained silent. This Feng is so annoying!

"Let's talk about Microsoft then,

Did you agree to the conditions I said two days ago? "Feng Yu changed the subject with a smile.

When others are angry, the more you smile and look relaxed, the more angry they will be, even if you don't say a word.

No, Paul Allen is about to explode!

"We won't agree to any of your conditions!"

Bill? Gates hastily pulled back his old friend, hadn't it already been agreed, why did he go back on his word?

"Feng, what he means is that we can't fully agree. We hope we can discuss it with you." Bill Gates said.

Feng Yu shrugged: "Okay, what do you want to discuss?"

"First of all, you want to join Microsoft's board of directors, of course you can, but to join Microsoft's board of directors, you must put Microsoft's interests first, do you understand?"

Put Microsoft's interests first, that is to say, want to raise prices?

"I'm sorry, I don't understand. Of course Microsoft's interests must be guaranteed, but I don't want to lose my personal interests."

"But you can't let Microsoft suffer losses just to make money for yourself?" Paul Allen said angrily.

Feng Yu looked at Paul Allen strangely: "Paul, what do you mean by that? What loss does Microsoft have? I am helping Microsoft develop the market, the largest market in the world, which is several times larger than that of the entire Americas." market!"

"You sound good, but we don't know what the economy of China is like. We also have a representative office in China, and it has been more than three years. China is still a poor country, and most of them are poor!" Paul Ai Lun sneered.

A large population seems to be a big market, but Africa has a larger population. Can you say that Africa is a big market? In many areas over there, there is no electricity yet, so how to use computers?

"You know Huaxia, but do you know me? Microsoft has had a representative office in China for three years. Have you calculated the growth rate of Huaxia Computer in the past few years? Have you calculated the level of economic growth in China in the past few years? Have you counted it? Have you ever counted the growth of rich people in China? Haven’t you counted them yet? You should have counted the overall economic growth rate of China, right? How about the South American market that you value very much now? The market of a country is bigger than the market of a continent Big, which side do you think is more important?"

The past two years are just the beginning of China's economic development. Although there were many detours in the early stage, after the millennium, China's economic growth has attracted the attention of the whole world. Even if it's not too dazzling now, it's definitely not bad. Huaxia will no longer be a poor country in the eyes of other countries in the world.

"Since you said that China's economy is growing rapidly, then Microsoft should treat them equally, and the prices of systems and application software should be the same as those of other countries." Paul Allen said proudly.

Didn't you say that Huaxia is rich? Then why sell at a lower price?

"Because of the consumption concept. A poor person has worked hard for many years and has a little money. Do you think he is a person who will spend money lavishly? Saving has penetrated into his heart and will form a habit! If you insist on selling at a high price, then I I’m sure that Microsoft’s system disks will not sell much. In fact, cracking Microsoft’s system is not too difficult.”

Paul Allen's face changed drastically: "You want to pirate~? That's against the law!"

"It's not that I do it, but those users do it themselves. Can you know who used the genuine version and who used the pirated version? Can you still enter other people's homes to search? Low price + bundling is the most correct How to do this, this year, you can dominate China's P market even if you think about it, do you believe it?"

Bill Gates stopped Paul Allen, the two were about to quarrel, Paul is not an irritable person, what happened today?

"Feng, I don't want to argue with you anymore. Let me put forward the conditions after our research. If you can accept it, then we will cooperate. If you can't accept it, we can only give up cooperating with you."

Feng Yu made a gesture of invitation, picked up the coffee, and took a sip happily. Then he glanced at Paul Allen, full of provocation.

"I and Paul will each exchange 1% of the shares with you, so that you will have 2% of the voting shares in your hands. I will nominate you to the board of directors, but can you tell me what you are good at and what position you want? ?”

"In the Chinese market, I have the final say. I can guarantee that Microsoft will be well promoted in China, and I don't care about anything else."

"Yes, then you will be the vice president of the Asia-Pacific region and be in charge of the China market. We have discussed this one. The other one, the price of twelve dollars you mentioned is really unacceptable to us. Twenty dollars, this is my The bottom line is that it is also the lowest price in the world. If this price is tied to your computer, it should not increase the cost much. After all, the tariffs on electronic products in China are so high, and you still have a huge price advantage!"

Feng Yu thought about it, the price of Microsoft's systems in other regions at this time is far more than twenty dollars, this one also comes with free office software, etc., the price is already very favorable and acceptable.

"Okay, I'll take a step back, and I agree to this condition." (To be continued.) 8
