"I don't know how things will become like this."
Song Ya sat next to her, "Isn't the Big Three of DreamWorks available?" He stabbed back: "Are they with Paul Allen in Hollywood?"
As the president of Amperling Entertainment, Catherine actually has some opinions on Spielberg’s dream work by Katzenberg and David Geffenra. However, she is an assistant of Spielberg and she is loyal and loyal. The provocation is naive APLUS, let's solve the current trouble first."
As a few black seniors at Goldman Sachs, Smith took the initiative in the meeting, "Since the new audio-visual media format is facing the problem of choosing one, and now the industry judges that the SD camp is difficult to win, then the DTS prospectus must be changed. , Investors will no longer believe in the bright prospects we have outlined, catching the big ship of the SD camp, Barabara, etc..."
The SD camp has not lost yet, but the industry believes that it is about to lose. Investors have insufficient confidence in DTS. Goldman Sachs, as the underwriter, certainly does not want to see the stock price plummet after the forced listing. Smith's prescription is simple, or postpone the listing. , Or change the prospectus, announcing that DTS will use the money raised in the open market to acquire some companies that have DVD standard patents.
Both of these options have problems. Postponement of the listing. DTS has to compensate the C round of investment institutions. One of the conditions for them to get real money into the game is to sign a gambling contract with a time limit. Caused the bankruptcy of DTS. The prospectus reform shows that the company's business direction is uncertain, and investors will still not recognize it. Even if it is forced to go public, it will inevitably encounter major setbacks.
"I asked the people at Northern Trust last night, and they said that they could be listed on the Chicago Stock Exchange. What do you think?" Song Ya proposed a third way.
"If we don't get listed on the Nasdaq, we will withdraw from Goldman Sachs." Smith said strongly.
"And us." The people at Madoff Investment Fund also stated.
Breach of the underwriting agreement DTS is the same as losing money.
"Don't look at me, I will come up with an idea..." Song Ya spread his hands, "I'm just a humble minority shareholder."
So everyone looked to Terry Beard, the founder who relied on the contradictions of multiple investors and still managed the company successfully, was embarrassed again, "Then let me think about it again, think about it..."
It seems that it cannot be decided by a meeting. Song Ya can understand Terry Beard's entangled mentality. He is only the last kick to become a billionaire. No one wants to die alive and stubbornly in front of the goal.
"Dila, Alicia, I'll leave it to you."
Song Ya shook hands with Alicia, who had returned to business affairs again, and said goodbye, "I also have to go to Netscape."
"Okay, don't worry too much about APLUS. The standard dispute will continue for a while, but the intensity has become life and death, and the SD camp will not necessarily lose." Alicia comforted.
"My investment in DTS has already made a lot of money. Even if this company goes bankrupt, I haven't lost money. Please persuade Terry Beard more."
Song Ya was struggling to have fun, and there was no good news during this period. Dr. Mei and Jimmy reported that the official version of Netscape browser should be called the professional version to be precise. After the launch, the sales situation is very good, and it is likely to exceed it within half a year. Netscape’s new president, Baxter, blows a million sales in Haikou.
Forty-five dollars a piece of software, more than one million sales in half a year means that the company is likely to be able to hand over 50 to 60 million meters of sales revenue before going public, which will inevitably make Netscape go public. It's bright, that five percent of my own shares are likely to get more than expected returns. This piece of fat has also become a thorn in the eyes of Jim Clark and others, and they have been targeted before going public.
"They can't kick us away, but because you were eager to enter the game at the beginning, our 5% shareholder equity is very small. Jim Clark may reduce our equity ratio by means of targeted capital increase." Jimmy said worriedly: "APLUS, I remind you that this possibility is definitely not low, it depends on whether Jim Clark wants to play shamelessly with us."
Like DTS, the situation has changed, and the demands of all relevant stakeholders will change. Whether it becomes worse or better, capital will never stop fighting and gaming.
"Go talk and see what I can offer Jim Clark and the others besides helping with advertising."
Except for his wife, this kind of trouble could not cause any violent emotional fluctuations in Song Ya. He calmly led his subordinates except Dile and Alicia to Netscape.
"Congratulations, I heard that our software sales situation is very good, right, where is Jim?" He asked Bucksdale, who was in charge of the reception.
"In the project team, with Mark Anderson and the others, and the people from SUN."
Backpackers smiled, "I heard that your investment in DTS encountered a setback?"
"Yes, not a big setback." Feeling that the aura of this lucky pig is almost gone, Song Ya has no regrets.
"Please come in, by the way, the new thing we are developing is a core secret, and we have to sign a confidentiality agreement, all of which must be signed. Then, not too many people can be admitted."
Backsd asked the staff to bring the legal documents. After the trial, Jimmy signed with Song Ya and Dr. Mei, and then hung a visitor badge around his neck, leaving the entourage such as Old Mike and Linda outside .
"APLUS! You came just right, look at our nuclear weapons!"
Jim Clark and Mark Anderson all gathered around a computer to look at the code.
"What is this?" Song Ya didn't understand this, and looked at the lines of code on the computer screen, eh? Seems familiar?
"Hey, let Mark introduce our star shareholder?" Jim Clark pulled him a chair, "What's wrong with you? APLUS."
"No, nothing..." Song Ya sat down on her chest, which was flushing with sour water. "Maybe I came too quickly in the morning and didn't eat much. It was...a bit uncomfortable."
"Really? Your body will be as vulnerable as our programmers?" Mark Anderson quipped, and everyone laughed.
"Mark and they are working overtime overnight. Have you seen each other for a while?"
Jim Clark's attitude was pretty good. He couldn't see that he was secretly engaged in a conspiracy against him. Song Ya was a little bit more determined, "Yes, what is this?" He looked at the screen.
"A new programming language, a masterpiece of SUN!" Mark Anderson replied, the software was selling well, coupled with technological breakthroughs, he was in a good mood, and everyone else was the same, with loud voices, and the entire project team was filled with optimism. "We can cooperate with SUN to use it to defeat Microsoft! It is statically object-oriented, simple and elegant..."
Mark Anderson gave almost all the beautiful words to the language, but Song Ya felt more breathless as he listened. The code on the screen seemed to evoke some bad memories. "Wow, what is it called? ?"
"JAVA."
"Java?" Song Ya felt even more uncomfortable. In addition to her belly, she started to buzz in her ears.
"Yes, JAVA!"
Mark Anderson did not notice what was wrong with him, and began to crackle the keyboard demo, "This language has given me and my colleagues a lot of inspiration. We also have an idea to develop a new programming language, currently named JAVAScript!"
"vomit!"
Song Ya couldn't bear it anymore, and he vomited out on the spot. He suddenly remembered his previous life, as if he had traveled through this unfortunate thing?
"Hey! What's the matter with you? APLUS, Jim!?" Mark Anderson got vomit on his pants, and he jumped to the side in fright.
