Back To 1995

   Chapter 142 Dragon Slayer

   Arkadi Voroz's words caused a round of applause in the conference room. The Internet is today's trendy culture, and it is the same for Lao Maozi.

  The current Arkady Voloz, and these young people who joined Yeadex, really think that they are changing the age of Lao Maozi. They are using Internet technology to change today's Lao Maozi.

Yeadex can develop so rapidly, not only because Yeadex gives more money, which is indeed one aspect, but there are also a large number of old and young young people pouring into Yeadex, thinking that the career they are engaged in is bright and great. …

Not only young people, Lao Maozi's municipal department, and many people who still care about Lao Maozi, also secretly help Yeadex company. It is conceivable that Yeadex's reputation in Lao Maozi is now, and will it become a dragon in the future? It's hard to say, but now Yeadex does feel a bit like the light of old Maozi technology.

After the meeting, Arkadi Voroz started to get busy again. Now Yeadex is attacking everywhere. The Internet project has established many industries such as search, e-commerce, email, and Internet advertising, not only for external publicity, but also for internal Yeadex I also think that Yeadex represents Lao Maozi's Internet!

In addition to the Internet industry, Yeadex has to deal with more business, such as cooperation with overseas food and daily chemical giants, and transactions with auction houses. Yeadex is still negotiating with BMW, Volkswagen, Citroen and other automobile groups in Western Europe. , I want Lao Maozi's machinery factory to work for these giants cheaply, just for some meager foreign exchange in exchange for Lao Maozi's factory to start work.

  In Lao Maozi, Yeadex has to deal with many departments such as banks and foreign exchange, and to satisfy the appetite of those vampires, so that Yeadex can continue its business operations.

   It seems that Yeadex makes a lot of money, but in fact it is not very profitable, and it even loses some money because the extra expenses for the vampires are too high.

Song Yang called Arkadi Voloz today. In addition to continuing to invest a sum of money in Yeadex, he asked Arkadi Voloz to purchase supplies from Lao Maozi's eastern neighbor, or Invest directly in the factories of your eastern neighbors to reduce costs!

   Arkadi Voroz was a little hesitant about this proposal. Because of the bad guys and the propaganda of the Western European media, Lao Maozi's impression of the products of the Eastern Neighbors was really not very good.

But in the face of Song Yang's proposal, Arkadi Voloz did not dare to refuse. Yeadex seems to be in full swing now, but it is actually quite fragile, far from reaching the point of an oligarch. If there is no support from Song Yang, give him Continue to invest, coordinate America's supplies to him, and Yeadex will collapse in an instant.

   After thinking about it for a while, Arkadi Voloz still picked up the phone and called the manager in charge of the foreign trade department, asking him to go to the Eastern Neighbor's house to purchase materials from the Eastern Neighborhood and seek investment for long-term cooperation.

Hanging up the phone, Arkady Voloz couldn't help thinking of Song Yang. Arkady Voloz felt a little bit incomprehensible to Song Yang. It wasn't that Song Yang had ulterior motives for Yeadex, but that he was too good to Yeadex. is responsive.

   Compared to those oligarchs, compared to Song Yang, Arkadi Voloz felt that those oligarchs were nothing more than a thing!

Shaking his head, Arkadi Voloz really couldn't guess Song Yang's thoughts, but Song Yang's thoughts on letting Yeadex become bigger in Lao Maozi, Voloz was clear, this is what Voloz wants now After returning from America to see Song Yang, Woroz felt that a new door had been opened to him.

Song Yang doesn't have that much thought. Regarding Yeadex, he just wants to make it fattened as soon as possible. He will give what he wants first, just like Wall Street harvesting sticks, holding Samsung, SK and many other companies, he has already put it away. Everyone in the stick took away more than half of the money they worked so hard to earn every year.

For Yeadex, Song Yang has the same thoughts. After all, Lao Maozi and Eastern Europe are also a big market with hundreds of millions of people. As long as Yeadex occupies this market, Song Yang's Americas Global Investment Fund will be able to earn money through Yeadex every year. To a large sum, and it will last for innumerable years!

   He didn't care too much about Yeadex. After Song Yang put down the phone, he started to get busy again. He wanted to find colleagues and guests to support ICQ's product launch.

   Yahoo, Microsoft, AOL, Lycos, and even Netscape, which had a big fight before, Song Yang called and invited the founders or executives of these companies to attend ICQ's New Year's Eve product launch.

As for the media and local celebrities in San Jose, Song Yang will naturally not fall behind. The first person to accept the invitation was Kevin Kelly, editor-in-chief of Wired magazine. He agreed to Song Yang's invitation, but he asked After the press conference, I conducted an exclusive interview with Song Yang and ICQ's team, to which Song Yang directly agreed.

The companies that received the invitation, such as Yahoo, were obviously surprised. They obviously did not expect Song Yang to release a new product so quickly. It had only been a long time since the Hotmail mailbox was sold, and the production team's donkey was not there. Are you so diligent? !

   "No news at all. Apparently, Bruno Song has been preparing for this new project for a long time, and it is even possible to sell Hotmail mailboxes for this new project!"

   After receiving Song Yang's invitation, all the major Internet companies are discussing each other, and Yahoo is no exception.

   A group of Yahoo executives who were busy promoting the listing also gathered together and looked at the few materials in their hands. Yahoo President Coog said to Yang Zhiyuan, Ferro, Brady and others.

  Yang Zhiyuan also frowned. Song Yang's behavior was completely beyond his expectations. He had just launched Hotmail, and now he has launched a new project, which made Yahoo very passive.

   Yang Zhiyuan has a good impression of Song Yang, and he also has contacts in private, but this does not mean that there is no competition between Yahoo and Song Yang. The two sides are now in a state of cooperation and competition.

   Yahoo is still following the trend of e-mail, and Yahoo mail has not had time to go online. Song Yang has started a new move. For Song Yang, who has launched Double-click and Hotmail, Yahoo does not dare to take it lightly.

  Brady said, "I heard the news that Song has sent invitations to many companies in Silicon Valley and the Internet industry, even PC manufacturers, and Netscape is no exception, do we want to go?!"

   "The conference venue is at the San Jose City Convention Center. If we don't go, it's really unreasonable, and the media doesn't know how it will be reported."

  Yang Zhiyuan is going to participate. His character has nothing to say. The character of a good brother in Jianghu is more suitable to be the leader of the Internet than the two from Netscape, not to mention the relationship between Yang Zhiyuan and Song Yang.

   Another founder of Yahoo, Ferro is still the dull character, neither disapproves nor approves, just waiting for Yang Zhiyuan and Kuger to make a decision.

   "Then participate, Yahoo will officially land on the Nasdaq in four months, and treat it as publicity for Yahoo!"

  Kuge knew Yang Zhiyuan's thoughts and did not refuse. He directly prepared to take advantage of Song Yang's product launch to promote Yahoo.

Thanks to the popularity of selling Hotmail mailboxes, the media will definitely chase this conference this time. I am afraid it will also be one of the hottest events in the Internet industry at the end of this year and the beginning of next year. Yahoo is also preparing to take a hit. The Internet industry is basically rubbing against each other...

Not only is Yahoo talking about it, but Microsoft is also very concerned about Song Yang's new ally. Although it is an ally, Microsoft is also afraid that Song Yang will make something out of it. Although Bill Gates did not agree to attend in person, he could He also said that he would send CTO Myhrvold to attend the press conference, apparently to inquire about the truth.

  Other Internet companies such as Netscape, AOL, Lycos, etc. have the same attitude, and they are all waiting to see, but Song Yang, who has the title of America Internet genius, does not dare to take it lightly.

  The media also quickly reported that several major technology and Internet industry media began to report that Song Yang would release new products on New Year's Eve, which attracted the attention of many technology fans for a while.

In addition to contacting these Internet companies and the media, Song Yang also went to the University of San Jose for help, and held a press conference at the San Jose Convention Center. The space of 13,000 square meters and the seats for 5,000 people should be filled. .

Even if you invite Internet companies, media, and reporters to participate, it would be good to have a few hundred people. The rest of the seats must not be vacant, otherwise you will have to go through the camera as soon as you turn the camera. Apple, Microsoft and other companies hold press conferences. If it can't be held here in Song Yang, it will be empty, and I am afraid it will become a joke in the Internet industry.

   So Song Yang found Derek, the president of San Jose University, and wanted Derek to send someone from San Jose University to the conference center to cheer him up. For Derek, it was just an effort.

   Derek didn't pay much attention to Song Yang's proposal. A college with more than 30,000 people sent thousands of people to join in. For Derek, it was nothing at all. What interested him was Song Yang's new project.

"Song, what is your new project, can't you disclose it in advance?!" Derek asked with great interest. As the president of a university in the center of Silicon Valley, Derek is also the most familiar with the trends of the Internet industry. To judge the prospects of an Internet project, it is natural to say the level.
