Back To 1995 - Chapter 958
Chapter 958 Send charcoal in the snow
From Todd’s attitude towards Song Yang every time, we can see the subtle changes in the identities of Microsoft and Song Yang. The more humble Todd’s attitude towards Song Yang, the more worrisome Microsoft’s situation is.
This time, Todd’s attitude was even worse. One can imagine the current situation of Microsoft. It can be said that he was cautious everywhere, asking for peace with his former enemies, for fear of provoking another enemy and making Microsoft worse.
At least Song Yang is definitely not on Microsoft’s list of “opponents”, at least not on the current list. Seeing that he is half dead, he has no intention of provoking his opponent.
Song Yang took a sip of his drink, looked at the dusty Todd, and said with a smile, “I heard that Microsoft is about to pass the storm. Congratulations to President Ballmer for me!”
If Microsoft can survive this difficulty and avoid the fate of being split, then Ballmer’s position in Microsoft is almost unshakable.
If Ballmer screwed up and failed to save Microsoft from disaster, then Bill Gates can take advantage of the situation and regroup to stage a savior drama and save Microsoft from danger.
But if Ballmer really let Microsoft escape from birth, then Bill Gates’ tricks of letting people play, it is estimated that the fake show will come true, even if he still stays at Microsoft, he can maintain a lot of influence, but Ballmer Ballmer will completely erect his own mountain at Microsoft. Unless Bill Gates tears his face, no one can challenge Ballmer’s position!
“There is still a long way to go. Opponents such as Capitol Hill, the states of America, IBM, and Sun are all difficulties for Microsoft to overcome!”
What Todd said is extremely bleak. It seems that Microsoft is already on the verge of collapse, and it will be the same if it falls tomorrow, but anyone who believes Todd’s nonsense will have to wait for bad luck. If they dare to provoke Microsoft, it may not be long before they will be slapped It was shot to death.
Seeing that Song Yang didn’t pick him up, Todd had no choice but to point it out, “Song, Microsoft and you have always been the biggest partners in the technology industry, and now Microsoft is indeed in some trouble…”
Todd said bitterly, it seems that Microsoft has suffered from Microsoft. As for the saying in the technology industry, if Microsoft is difficult to praise, it has nothing to do with Microsoft.
“Song, Microsoft hopes that your side can help Microsoft reach a settlement agreement with Texas!”
Todd finally made it clear that he wanted Song Yang to help lead the way so that Adrian could give Microsoft a break. The relationship between Song Yang and Adrian is well known. Todd believes that as long as Song Yang gets involved, Adrian’s side can definitely handle the Texas State Assembly side.
Adrian is not an incompetent person, he is a hardliner. Whether he was the boss in Houston or the governor of Texas, he has absolute power. look like goods.
Todd had contacted Adrian, and Adrian’s attitude was ambiguous. He didn’t mean to embarrass Microsoft, but he didn’t say he wanted to let them go. It was a business-like gesture, and the state assembly voted, and the vote passed. If it is approved, it agrees to settle with Microsoft. If it fails, then continue to toss Microsoft.
This is what makes Todd and Microsoft the most uncomfortable. What they need most now is time. Take advantage of the current opportunity to completely get rid of the anti-monopoly case.
Texas, as the leader of the western states, does not express its position, and other states basically follow suit, hanging Microsoft there, taking the opportunity to continuously increase the bargaining chip, and every day of delay, the price Microsoft pays will be much higher , the risk is much higher.
“Song, as long as the Bruno family is willing to help, Microsoft is willing… to pay a sufficient price!”
Gritting his teeth, Todd straightened his neck, waiting for Song Yang to strike him, and was ready to be slaughtered by Song Yang.
But to Todd’s surprise, Song Yang just smiled, “Tomorrow night, the Bruno family will hold a banquet, and Governor Adrian will be invited at that time. If you are interested, Todd, you can come to attend at that time! “
Hearing this, Todd couldn’t help but be overjoyed. They are all veterans. Song Yang has set up a dragon gate formation. He naturally knows what it means. This means that Song Yang will act as a lobbyist for Microsoft this time, so that Microsoft can immediately follow Texas has reached a settlement, and Todd expects to reach a settlement with at least six or seven states in the west, directly completing at least a quarter of the task!
But when he was excited, he couldn’t help but feel a little doubtful, because it was so easy, which made Todd a little unreal. This time he came out on behalf of Microsoft, and he didn’t beg his grandpa to sue his grandma. The public relations fee was tens of millions or hundreds of millions of dollars. The knife is thrown out.
Before coming to Song Yang this time, Todd and Microsoft’s board of directors were already prepared to be slaughtered. Who knew that Song Yang agreed directly without any harsh conditions at all. Pulling Microsoft, it inevitably makes Todd a little unreal.
Seeing the bewildered look on Todd’s face, Song Yang raised his wine glass, “North American Global Investment Foundation has always been an ally with Microsoft, and it should also solve the trouble for the ally!”
Looking at the righteous words, Song Yang, who has a heart for Microsoft, even Todd, who is used to the intrigues of the rivers and lakes, can’t help feeling a little bit at this time. Of course he knows that Song Yang is definitely not showing that he is so friendly to Microsoft. , Maybe there are other plans, but Microsoft has suffered such a big misfortune this time, Song Yang is the first person to reach out to Microsoft, give Microsoft a hand, and give charcoal to Microsoft. How can he not let Todd’s heart touch.
“Song, I will report what happened today to President Ballmer, director Bill Gates and the entire Microsoft board of directors!”
Todd stood up and said to Song Yang with a serious face. He didn’t say any words of thanks. Those nonsense words are just fooling the layman.
Back then, IBM and Microsoft had a good relationship. If it weren’t for IBM’s order, Microsoft would never have developed so quickly, but when it was time to turn their backs, Microsoft was merciless.
Similarly, now that Microsoft is grateful to Song Yang, once the two sides fight, it is estimated that Microsoft will still kill it, but it will not be merciful just because it pulled it this time.
Of course, Song Yang didn’t count on that, whether it’s Microsoft or other giant companies, it’s better to believe that old sows can climb trees than to believe their nonsense.
Looking at the back of Todd leaving, Song Yang took a sip of his drink, Whitman came to Song Yang’s side, and asked a little puzzled, “Just let Microsoft go like this?!”
Song Yang shook his head slowly, and said to Whitman, “Only a half-dead Big Brother is a really good Big Brother!”
Microsoft is unlikely to be split up this time. Why is Song Yang still being that villain?
At this time, pull Microsoft, and then launch ICQ’s media company to create some public opinion, and come up with a set, so that all American people believe that it is Song Yang who saved Microsoft’s public opinion.
Not to mention letting Microsoft completely stop competing with Song Yang in the social, search, mobile phone system and other industries, at least under the overwhelming public opinion, Microsoft must be restrained. Make them more hated by all Americans!
Ballmer also has to accept Song Yang’s favor and let Ballmer sit firmly as the president of Microsoft. There are two tigers in Microsoft, and one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. Will Ballmer and Bill Gates fight? This is Song Yang. Yang didn’t know, but if he had nothing to do, he would tease him and create some news about their disagreement, which would probably cause some disturbances within Microsoft.
After this wave, Microsoft is estimated to be seriously injured. At least for a few years, it will not dare to initiate any large-scale mergers and acquisitions.
Microsoft is more hated than Song Yang in the technology industry. With Microsoft at the forefront, the outside world will not pay too much attention to Song Yang. As long as Microsoft is blocked from entering the mobile Internet, the half-dead big brother will be on top of him. Why not do thunder ahead? !
Song Yang returned to Omidyar who was drinking with Gallo and others, looked at him and Pam, “Omidyar, you really want to leave ebay?!”
