Authorization is impossible. If I don’t give it, the Walkman business you spent a lot of money on will lose to Apple because of incomplete songs. With Jobs’s ability, it’s impossible to let go of this advantage. Palm’s market value will be very fast. I was hit hard, how could this kind of good thing be done by you in my hands?
"Don't mention those... I understand, I also want to help, but you know, I can't count this alone."
I dare not violently beat people, but I am happy to take the opportunity to watch your jokes! Howard Stringer played dumb: "Is that authorization... important?"
"certainly."
"OK, I will call Sony Columbia Records and wait for my message."
It’s also good to be able to delay you some time. He smiled and asked, “By the way, I also heard that the three founders of 3DFX are also preparing to initiate a lawsuit.”
"The three of them are clowns." Song Ya replied disdainfully.
"Also, I heard that Beats is also planning to open its own chain store?"
"Yes."
"It's going to cost a lot, right? Now the rent of a good store has risen too far." He pretended to be concerned.
"Yes, although we started later than Apple, we have to do this sooner or later."
"I heard that Apple is cooperating with the developer who just bought the General Building in New York to open a flagship store on Fifth Avenue?"
Every question he has is rumored to be unfavorable news for him, and Apple’s pressure is also all-round. “I also heard that you seem to care about my business?” Song Ya slammed the ball out and squatted. Cue, look straight into the opponent's eyes.
"You are the most successful idol in the past decade. Whether in the entertainment or technology industry, APLUS, not only me, I am afraid everyone is studying you now."
Howard Stringer will not lose at least, "They want to copy your path to success, or find a chance to beat you and replace it."
"I can understand too."
Song Ya was too lazy to talk nonsense, and asked bluntly: "A condition?"
"Sorry, I still have to say sorry..."
After Howard Stringer said these words, the two people who looked at each other fell silent, and time seemed to be frozen. At this time, a gust of wind blew on the court, blowing their trousers like a flag.
"Sir?"
Until the caddies carrying equipment turned around and asked.
"OK, that's it?" Song Ya asked coldly.
"What else? I said nothing more."
Howard Stringer didn't want to be at a disadvantage when faced with this young face, even if the wealth gap was infinite.
Song Ya threw the caddy in his hand to the caddy, "Tell David, I have to leave beforehand."
"Stop playing?"
"I still prefer the kind of colorful play with Jordan." Song Ya walked to the golf cart.
"It's okay, I'll make an exception for you!" Howard Stringer shouted at his back.
"I'm afraid you can't afford it."
Song Ya waved goodbye domineeringly, as if driving away a fly.
This crazy Nger!
Damn it!
Howard Stringer was frustrated by his last sentence. He returned home and vowed that he would not let the other party get the copyright library authorization, and contacted friends in the Tokyo headquarters to ensure this, and even ordered his men to see if they could find the other party's company. Evidence of infringement of Sony's patents.
As the former overlord of the Walkman industry, the reasons for initiating a lawsuit can always be found.
A few days later, he was very happy about this incident, and began to contact Jobs to seek the possibility of a class action. The Bloomberg machine on the desk suddenly jumped out of a newsletter.
‘YAHOO acquired 80% of APLUS’s Goto company by way of share swap and cash. It is believed that the total amount of this transaction is $1.6 billion. ’
1.6 billion?
So how much did Nger cost to buy AltaVitsa plus Goto? 800 million?
He stunned ~www.mtlnovel.com~ and began to search for news on the Internet, and called to ask people.
After a while, a photo of his CEO Terry Semel and GotoCEO William Zhang shaking hands and signing a contract was published on the homepage of YAHOO Finance. The smiles of YAHOO founders such as Song Ya and Jerry Yang standing behind and applauding were particularly dazzling.
He even saw the Wall Street Wolf King Carl Icahn in this photo!
Don't they have a grudge? Why did you get it together? ?
Yeah! It was from this Nger that Karl Icahn took over a lot of YAHOO stocks back then!
"The new alliance between YAHOO and APLUS will definitely initiate a patent lawsuit against Gugou!"
A friend said on the phone: "Yahoo has supported Jugou for many years, and Goto is the pioneer of the website advertising bidding ranking model. Now Jugou's IPO plan is in big trouble!"

"Haha! Zhang, early..."
Song Ya does not own 100% of the new Goto company. In addition to the 20% of Goto shares he retained, he probably got 500 million dollars in cash from the transaction with YAHOO, and re-owned 2.5% of YAHOO. Shares.
CEO William Zhang and the original founder of Goto and other company executives, senior programmers, etc. also instantly transformed into billions, tens of millions, and millionaires of all sizes.
When Song Yada, who had lost control, received a call from William Zhang, who was no longer his subordinate, early in the morning, there seemed to be an all-night party, "Yes, I am going to Tokyo today, I wish you a happy life in the new company!"
He generously congratulated the other party.
Under the situation where Goto all hope to be taken care of by YAHOO, letting go at the right time is a happy choice for everyone.
And this time, YAHOO is indeed generous, as if returning to the arrogant and unparalleled industry leader when Mark Cuban’s Broadcast website was taken down by 6 billion before the stock market crash.
However, CEO Terry Semel’s choice was not a big problem. The subsequent positive reaction of the capital market also proved this point. The patent moat jointly developed by YAHOO and Goto can be fatal to strategic competitors who are in the preparatory stage of IPO. hit.
Song Ya himself also needs more cash to go to Tokyo to deal with Sony.
"Beats website..."
The biggest problem after William Zhang followed Goto to YAHOO was the original American music website. Now Beats has no boss. It can afford the arduous tasks of Beats Walkman production and music store. William Zhang recommended the young Napster founder Sean Fanning to take it. Too Daquan, also promised to continue to allocate time to help, until the official release of version 1.0 of the Music Store in October, and then completely separated from the work relationship.
"OK, you guys keep playing."
While chatting, a delicate body gently wrapped around from behind, Song Yaluo hung up after saying a few words, and turned his arm around Charisy.
Then Mira also opened her emerald eyes.
While still resting in Begonia, Halle and Jenny, who will finally enter the Catwoman and Sahara crews respectively, begin to sleep in a hazy and changeable sleeping position, half asleep and half awake.
In order to live up to this rare beauty and glory, Song Ya played up a bit of energy.
"Schelin insisted on helping Twilight to publish..."
The departure time was approaching, and he pulled Jenny up from the weak four girls mentally and physically, and got up with clothes on together, "You remember to let Litman Publishing take the right to make the film by the way."
"Why? Do you trust her eyes more?"
Jenny had previously stated that she didn't catch a cold with that book, and was a little bit offended by the choice of men, "Her historical record is not so good..."
"Whee!"
Just say that she was a box office poison. Song Ya was amused, "Get her something to do."
