Back To 1995

  Chapter 1106 Snake Tunxiang

  Song Yang nodded, and there was no turning back when he opened the bow. Once he started to build momentum, it must be a thunderbolt. No matter the means, overt or covert, must be used.

   "After America starts to build momentum, let the public relations company start to do it too!" Song Yang said to Greg.

The fortress was breached from the inside. No matter what method America uses, it must have a big figure from France stand up and sign to agree to the acquisition of Alcatel Group and Alstom. Just like in World War II, when Germany won the war, a Gallic rooster had to be supported to sign the letter of surrender.

Greg nodded. This is a scapegoat. France depends on who dares to bear the scapegoat that is destined to bear infamy. Of course, this blame cannot be vindicated. Stone will definitely become America's "own man", and will also become a benchmark for America's support in old Europe.

   If you don’t support this person, who will dare to serve America in the future? !

Therefore, whether it is the Federal Affairs Commission or Wall Street, including General Electric and Song Yang, they will support the French congressman who sold Alcatel and Alstom. It is not impossible for him to become a real big man in France in the future. …

  Alcatel Mobile President Ertian and Fortinet Antivirus Company President Xie Qing arrived at the gate of the San Jose Manor almost at the same time. When the two met, they were obviously surprised, as if they did not expect to meet each other here.

"Thanks!"

   After all, with the Alcatel mobile phone, Ertian, whose status in the world is much higher than that of Xie Qing, greeted Xie Qing warmly.

Xie Qing's Feita antivirus company is placed in Song Yang's camp. To be honest, it is not too eye-catching. Up to now, the market value of Feita antivirus has not exceeded US$10 billion, and the Alcatel mobile phone that has not yet been listed , the valuation alone exceeded 200 billion US dollars, and after listing, it directly competed with the world's top technology giants such as Nokia, Cisco, Intel, and HP.

   But Ertian himself is not that kind of arrogant person, and he also knows that Xie Qing has a special position in Song Yang's camp.

In Silicon Valley, the most famous Asian-founded company is undoubtedly Yahoo. Ertian has also heard of it. Yang Zhiyuan’s reputation in Asia is like a god. Over there, Yahoo’s reputation is far greater than Microsoft’s. A lot of other companies, even ICQ, are not as good as Yahoo in Asia in terms of reputation.

But Yahoo is a well-known standard company whose board of directors is controlled by Wall Street institutions. There are actually not many Asians and Chinese recruits internally. On the contrary, Fortinet still maintains more than 65% of its employees, all of whom are Chinese. , and even directly come from Yanjing and other places, which is quite special in the entire Silicon Valley.

Feita is very special, and Xie Qing is also very special in Song Yang's camp. Combined with Song Yang's trip to Asia after becoming famous, and Song Yang's father's family in Yangcheng, let Xie Qing and Feita kill the virus. In the camp, there is a vague meaning of representing the Asian side.

Song Yang has invested in quite a few companies in Asia. Relying on the Star Wish Foundation, he has invested in Internet companies such as Sohu, 8848, Yinghaiwei, Chinabyte, and Pengcheng, an instant messaging software company that is said to be somewhat similar to ICQ. Wait, among these companies, Sohu has already gone public, 8848 is sprinting to go public, and Ying Haiwei heard that it is a little overwhelmed, but it barely survives by acting as an agent for double-click company, Hotmail mailbox, Fortivirus antivirus, etc. These companies are basically Therefore, the head of the flying tower anti-virus horse is saddle.

After all, Feita Antivirus is the closest to Song Yang, the big benefactor, and Xie Qing is also from the domestic side. Naturally, Sohu, 8848 and other companies are closer to Feita Antivirus, in order to be in Song Yang's camp. Get more resources and support.

The potential of Internet companies in Asia is constantly expanding, and Internet users are growing explosively. The sales of Alcatel mobile phones there are also continuing to skyrocket. Although the number of Internet users in Asia will exceed that of America, El Tian is also a little unconvinced, but Ertian knows that the number of Internet users in Yanjing is growing, and someday, there will be several Internet giants there!

After entering the manor and getting on the golf cart, Ertian said a few words to Xie Qing, and said with a smile, "Xie, the company under the North American Global Investment Foundation was called to this manor by Director Bruno. Unexpected gains can be obtained.

  Fortinet Antivirus, maybe it can also become a giant company in Silicon Valley! "

Although these words are a bit ridiculous, when Xie Qing listened, he couldn’t help feeling a little moved. Now Feita Antivirus is basically touching the ceiling of the industry. Compared with traditional antivirus manufacturers, the Internet antivirus that Feita Antivirus plays is mainly Earning US dollars by advertising and selling UTM firewalls is actually a lot of money.

However, the market size of UTM firewalls is still under development. In addition, Fortinet’s TV set-top box business is sold together with Panda TV. This sideline business earns higher profits than the main business. You have to rely on the TV set-top box to support the stock price...

But in a short period of time, the potential of Fortinet antivirus has been hollowed out, unless there are huge changes, entering a new industry, or acquiring a certain company, this is what Xie Qing can think of, but he wants to do this Everything is not so easy, it must have the support of the big benefactor.

Before releasing it, Xie Qing was just thinking about it, but when he entered San Jose Manor and heard what Ertian said just now, Xie Qing was really looking forward to it. What if he was really bumped into by the flying tower? Baker Hughes Energy Company and others, after entering this manor, got huge benefits, and transformed into a giant company!

   When they entered the living room, Ertian and Xie Qing saw Song Yang, Greck, Gallo and other Bruno family members present, and Gallo was talking and laughing loudly with a smile on his face.

Elthian and Xie Qing, of course know why Gallo is so happy. Of course, the stock price of Blackwater Security is almost skyrocketing. It is said that Gallo's worth has exceeded 7.5 billion dollars , We have almost touched the threshold of billionaires. You must know that Gallo’s worth at the beginning of Heishui Security’s listing was less than two billion dollars. It is conceivable that during this period of time, Gallo’s worth is in the end. How much did it go up.

   "Gailo, I heard that Blackwater security got a lot of big orders?!" Elthian sat down and asked Gallo with a smile.

Gallo laughed and pointed in Song Yang's direction, "It's thanks to Song, if it wasn't for Song, Blackwater Security would not have gotten so many orders, most of them were lost to Lockheed Martin and Grumman. Take it for the **** vampire!"

In the end, Gallo did not forget to curse the Lockheed Martin company. Hearing Gallo's scolding, Ertian couldn't help shaking his head. Gallo still has the right to scold Lockheed Martin. Blackwater Security Bo eats a lot, and I heard that he is almost full. It is one of the companies that eat the most in Taher in America!

   "Xie Qing, how is Feita Antivirus doing now?!" Song Yang asked Xie Qing first.

Hearing this, Xie Qing's heart couldn't help but Ertian looked suspiciously at Xie Qing a few more times, wondering if he was really fooled. Song Yang wouldn't ask Feita to kill the virus for no reason. matter.

"In the field of corporate antivirus software, Fortinet's antivirus revenue is still inferior to McAfee, Symantec, Juniper, Norton, etc. UTM firewalls have not been fully accepted by major companies, but in the latest quarter, Fortinet The sales volume of UTM hardware firewall of Fortivirus has increased by 55%, and the sales volume has exceeded 100,000 units for the first time. It is expected that the revenue of UTM firewall of Fortivirus will exceed US$1 billion this year!

  In addition, among ordinary users, the proportion of users who are accustomed to using Fortinet antivirus has exceeded 49%, and the sales of Fortigate’s TV set-top boxes have also hit a record high…”

Although he didn't know, Song Yang suddenly asked Feita antivirus company what it was called, but Xie Qing still praised Feita antivirus, and told Song Yang that Feita antivirus has done the same thing all these years. Minor.

Song Yang nodded. The anti-virus software industry is not the mainstream of the Internet. Not to mention now, after twenty years, this is also a very important industry that is not valued by others. Just like a lock repair master, as long as you If you are not locked out, you probably won't be able to call a lock repairer. Similarly, as long as your computer is not poisoned, no one will think of using anti-virus software.

   "You should also know that on the day of the wedding at the manor, Jotus from the EMC Group also came here.

  The life of the EMC Group is not very easy now..."

  When Song Yang said this, Xie Qing's heart was beating violently. He couldn't believe it, but couldn't help but clenched his fists.

   "Jotus mentioned to me that he hopes that EMC Group will acquire Fortinet Antivirus Company!"

  Hearing these words suddenly, Xie Qing's mind was in a mess, as if a basin of cold water had been poured on him. He who was still thinking about it just now, felt the ups and downs of life at this time, and it was really exciting.

   "But I rejected this proposal!"

  Just when Xie Qing felt his throat was dry, he finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Song Yang's words behind him.

He would rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail, be acquired by EMC Group, or if Fortinet Antivirus can sell for a good price, Xie Qing's own status may not be threatened, and he may not even be able to get a higher position in EMC Group. But it is possible for Feita Antivirus to no longer be under Xie Qing's control.

  Eltian saw Xie Qing's performance, and he broke into a cold sweat for Xie Qing. If it were him, his heart would probably be a little bit overwhelmed.

  Song Yang looked at Xie Qing, "I think Fortinet Antivirus is more important than EMC Group, and now that EMC Group has reached its weakest moment, this may be an opportunity for Fortivirus Antivirus!

  Xie Qing, what do you think? ! "

Song Yang has said all the words to this point, Xie Qing still doesn't know what it means, this is an opportunity for Feita to kill poisonous snakes and swallow elephants, with a market value of less than 10 billion U.S. dollars, Feita's antivirus is not as good as swallowing the current stock price In the past, the EMC Group, which had a market value of nearly 100 billion U.S. dollars at its peak, was the only chance and the last chance for Feita Antivirus. After passing this village, there will be no such store anymore.

Xie Qing took a deep breath, looked at Song Yang, and said solemnly, "I think Feita Antivirus can acquire EMC Group, and Feita Antivirus can take over the business of EMC Group. In the future, Feita Antivirus can "digest" this piece of fat. Meat, never indigestion!

If the acquisition is completed, I am willing to let Joe Tus serve as the co-president of Fortinet Antivirus, let Joe Tus still be in charge of the EMC Group, and let Joe Tus pay more than me. When the EMC Group fails to start making profits, I am willing. Temporarily give up dividends, bonuses, etc.! "

Xie Qing is obviously being ruthless. As long as he can swallow the EMC Group, Xie Qing does not mind sharing the rights of Fortinet Antivirus Company with Jotus. He even learned from American Telecom's Iger that he will not get a bonus when he fails to save the EMC Group. , dividends, etc., these two things are big things for professional managers in America.

Hearing Xie Qing's statement, Greg felt a bit of a headache. Although a phoenix with shedding hair is not as good as a chicken, a phoenix is ​​a phoenix. It is also valuable without its hair. If a tiger has its hair shaved, it is also full of treasures. EMC No matter how unbearable the group is, if you want to swallow it, you will definitely spend a lot of money.

Greg knew that Song Yang still had thoughts on WPP Advertising Group, and with the Alcatel Group in France, the next thing was to spend money like water, even if there were Alcatel mobile phones, Baker Hughes Energy Company, Snow With the three cash cows of Leshan Games, Greg still felt a bit struggling. Without these few cash cows, it would be impossible to attack these giant companies one after another!

   "When the Alcatel mobile phone is finished, Fortinet Antivirus can start contacting EMC Group, and the North American Global Investment Foundation can provide support for Fortinet Antivirus!"

If Fortinet Antivirus wants to swallow the EMC Group, it is impossible to rely solely on Song Yang to pay for it. It must borrow money from Wall Street institutions and major banks. The North American Global Investment Foundation will provide loans. , In the end, the snake swallowed the EMC Group.

  Over there, Xie Qing was still excited, but Ertian pricked up his ears. He didn't know how this incident involved the Alcatel mobile phone.

   "The time is almost up!"

  Gleek glanced at the time, pressed the TV switch, and tuned to a program on CNN. Soon there was an "inconspicuous" piece of news on the current affairs news on TV.

"The Federal Trade Commission has confirmed that Alstom in France has unfair competition. In the Bahamas, Egypt, Indonesia, Assam and other regions, it has engaged in commercial bribery in competition with General Electric. The head of the department bribed 75 million dollars and used improper methods to steal orders worth at least 4 billion dollars!"

  Seeing this news, Ertian and others smelled something unusual. The appearance of this kind of news in America basically marks that another unlucky guy is about to appear.
