Back To 1995

  Chapter 187

   Song Yang's proposal completely exceeded Joetus' expectations. He never thought that Song Yang would have such a proposal.

   "President Joetus, America Telecom needs you. As long as you come to America Telecom, I will give my full support here. I believe America Telecom will never let you down. In the future, it will never be worse than Wang An's company!"

Now America Telecom is just a blank sheet of paper, with the support of Song Yang, Enron Corporation, Telephone and Telegraph Group, etc., as long as Chotus arrives, Song Yang will delegate power to him, so that he has the absolute right to draw America Telecom as him As planned.

   This is Wang An Company, and it is absolutely impossible to give him the authority. After all, Wang An Company needs Jotus to explain to shareholders and investors.

   As for what America Telecom will look like in the future, no one knows, but one thing is certain, with the cowhide blown out by America Telecom today, it will definitely not continue to develop in the future, and it will definitely need to continue to acquire and invest.

   And Wang An's company looks really good now. In the hands of Joe Tus, Wang An's company has begun to have some of the style of the past.

But that's all. Wang An, who has gone bankrupt once, is destined to never return to the top. Just like a top sports superstar who ruptured his Achilles tendon, no matter how well he recovers, he will never be able to return to that Feitian again. It's time to escape.

  Jotus couldn't help feeling a little moved. He didn't expect that last year he was only a rookie, and he was almost recruited to his team's "rookie", but this year he started recruiting him instead.

   After a long while, Song Yang heard Jotus on the other end of the phone sigh, "Song, America Telecom is indeed an option, maybe it's an opportunity for me, but..."

  Jotus lowered his voice a little, "Wang An Company, now entering a critical period, I really can't leave, Song, you should mean it!"

Now under the leadership of Joe Tus, Wang An Company is also taking advantage of the Internet boom, and is constantly making acquisitions. From last year to this year, it has acquired nearly ten companies in a row, and both revenue and market are rapidly expanding. Wang An company is the hard work of Jotus. It is really difficult for him to leave the current Wang An company and go to America Telecom to start anew!

   Hearing what Joetus said, Song Yang was also a little helpless, but he couldn't blame Joetus. Instead, it was Joetus, which was enough to prove his integrity, but it only made Song Yang feel a little pity.

   "I understand, President Chotus!" Song Yang said.

"One day, I mean that if I leave Wang An Company, if you still need Song, I am willing to serve Mr. Bruno Song!" Joetus said in a joking tone, he was not sure he would He will not leave the revived Wang An Company. Even if he leaves, he will not necessarily go to the "genius newcomer" he has discovered.

  Song Yang said directly, "A word is settled!"

After    hung up the phone, Song Yang couldn't help sighing. If he poached Jotus, Song Yang would not need to worry about America Telecom, and now he has to poach people again.

  Song Yang leaned back in his chair and looked at the busy new office outside. The headquarters of America Telecom was still located in Texas, and an operation center would be established in America. New York is the first operation center of America Telecom!

   tapped his fingers on the table, and Song Yang's heart suddenly moved. Jotus, the "life mentor", failed, and Song Yang thought of another "mentor."

  The east side is not bright and the west side is bright, Song Yang called the emperor of the advertising industry, Martin Solo, who was far away in England.

  Martin Solo's voice was still full of momentum. After answering the phone, he immediately said, "Song, I thought it would take a while before I received your call!"

   "President Martin, you know I've been in trouble during this time, and I'm working on those troubles!"

   Hearing Song Yang's words, Martin Solo laughed a few times, "That's why I don't like staying in America. Some people are really annoying."

Martin Solo, who has been playing mergers and acquisitions all the year round, has dealt with the America Trade Commission a lot. The outside world only sees that Martin's WWP Group is invincible, acquiring one advertising company after another, but I don't see Martin in the Trade Commission. How much was eaten there, and how much was fined.

   "Double-click, I've heard about it. Song, it's not your fault. I will let Weida PR and Boya PR be responsible for lobbying for Double-click in Washington. No one can stop Double-click from going public!"

  Martin Solo said domineeringly, as the first Internet advertising company invested by WPP Group and the representative of WPP Group in the Internet advertising industry, Martin does not allow anyone to prevent DoubleClick from listing.

   "Thank you, President Martin, I will let Double Click Company cooperate with Weida PR and Boya PR, and pay enough PR fees!"

Song Yang said to Martin Soros that even if it is a brand under the WPP Group, Martin Soro's subjugation method is somewhat similar to raising Gu, allowing the acquired companies to cooperate and maintain a certain degree of cooperation. of mutual competition.

It’s also a game of acquisition. Martin Solo has to slip more than Ebes’s side. Basically, the acquired brands can survive. Many brands are still prosperous for a long time. .

  Song Yang is also very interesting. Martin asked Weida and Boya Public Relations to help Double-click to lobby. Song Yang will not let Double-click reduce the cost of these two companies. I am afraid that no one is willing to do a loss-making business.

   "President Martin, I will resolve the matter of Double-click Company, and let Double-click Company be listed on schedule."

  Song Yang gave Martin Solo a peace of mind to play, and then said, "President Martin, in fact, today I have another thing I want to ask!"

"Oh?!"

  Martin Solo was a little curious, "Things that can embarrass America's genius are rare!"

This time, Martin Solo also saw the means of targeting America Telecom and Double-click, and Song Yang was able to solve the trouble of America Telecom and let Double-click company prepare for a normal roadshow to go public. It is not easy. To face it, I am afraid it has long been a mess.

   "Americas Telecom wants a suitable CEO, wondering what advice President Martin has?"

   Song Yang's voice fell, and there was the sound of a chair turning on the other end of the phone, apparently Martin Solo stood up.

If Song Yang asked anything else, then Martin Solo would probably hesitate, but asking this kind of thing was not a problem for Martin Solo, who had filled up the skills of subjugation and the Emperor's Mind. .

  Like Chotus, Martin Solo has a pretty good impression of Song Yang and never minds giving pointers.

   "Song, I know that you may be looking for a highly capable professional manager for America Telecom to be the president of America Telecom, but this may not be the most needed for America Telecom!"

In the office, Martin took out a bottle of red wine, poured a drink, and continued to point out the country, "America Telecom does need a qualified leader to cope with changes in the telecommunications industry, but if it is too strong, do you think America Telecom, who will you listen to?!"

Martin pointed out a practical problem. Once an extremely powerful leader, like Eisner, the president of Disney, came to the newly established America Telecom as the president, then America Telecom listened to that president, or would it be Listen to Song Yang?

   Going a step further, once the CEO joins forces with the Telephone and Telegraph Group and Wall Street, will Song Yang have to go through the experience of Jobs and be kicked out of the company he built? !

  Song Yang was silent for a while, and asked Martin Solo, "President Martin, do you have a suitable candidate?"

   "Bob Iger, maybe Song, you haven't heard the name yet, but I have to say that this name is definitely on the list of the best professional managers on Wall Street in the future!"

  Song Yang felt that this name seemed a little familiar. It was not that he had heard it after he came to America, but that he had vaguely heard this name in his previous life.

Martin Solo seems to be very impressed by this Bob Iger, "Iger is now working at ABC TV, Iger is in charge of ESPN and other channels of the ABC Group, and he is in charge of the cooperation between the WPP Group and the ABC Group. Let ABC Group's sports channel become the most profitable sports channel in America, maybe he is Song, the character you need!"

After    and Martin Solo hung up, Song Yang asked someone to find Bob Iger's information. Iger was not from a prestigious school. His first job after graduation was a weather broadcaster for a small TV station.

  Iger later transferred to the ABC Group. He has been working in the ABC Group for 11 years now. It seems that he is only a moderate executive of the ABC Group, and he is not far from a real executive.

   However, combined with Iger's ordinary American family background, he was not from a famous school. It is not easy to climb to this stage. ABC is an old-fashioned group, and the internal is also very rigid. It is not so easy to climb up.

Unless there is a huge change, Iger can have new opportunities. From the information obtained in a hurry, it can be seen that Iger's reputation is very good, and ABC has a very good impression of him. Through this information, Song Yang can Probably guess what Iger's character is like.

But at the end, when he saw Iger's profile photo, Song Yang couldn't help but be stunned. Although Iger is now in his forties, he is a little less old than he was ten years later, but Song Yang is still the same. It looks familiar.

Song Yang didn't expect that this person would appear in front of him. Pixar, Marvel, Lucas, Fox and many other famous companies were all defeated by him. Song Yang didn't know if Iger was poached. Er, will that Mickey Mouse be so domineering in the future? !
