looks at Larry Page ’s incredibly bitter expression, Li Mu really moved a little bit of a hidden heart at a certain moment.

To be reasonable, I really should n’t bully honest people.

I want 10%, and people gave me 10% this time. Isn't it just a hit and everyone is happy?

But when I saw that I was honest and knew that I was being counseled, I was going to temporarily increase the number of people. I would open my mouth by 15%, and the floor price would be cruel.

However, after only a moment, this thought completely disappeared.

In the capital market, what can be said?

In the capital market, even the laws are not so easy to use, otherwise there will not be so many regulatory departments and institutions.

And after all, not all who are bullied are honest people, not all technical houses are honest people, and those who are harmless are not honest people.

Jobs was bullied by the board of directors because he had the same shares and the same power earlier. Is he honest?

Both Robin and Ma Zong are the earliest technical houses. Are they honest?

Mark Zuckerberg looks like a poor worm who can bully twice in school. Is he honest?

In other words, where are the honest people in the capital market? Finding honest people here is the same as looking for wild pandas in the United States. This thing is not here.

After removing the short-term moral burden, Li Mu looked at Larry Page, who was as sad as being robbed of his wife. He smiled slightly and flickered: "Larry, Muye Science and Technology's share in Google will bring you three A huge piece of good news:

First, the rapid increase in search traffic, Google's core business immediately ushered in exponential growth;

Second, the capital market will have more confidence in the prospect of Google, because it is most likely to threaten your industry giant and will soon become your ally;

Third, Google will have a more stable industry advantage in the field of search engines, Yahoo or Microsoft. As long as Google is with me, neither of them will threaten the development of Google. "

After Li Mu said this, eyes looks at Larry Page ’s depressed expression eased a little, then he knew that he was in the heart, and then Li Mu sat up straight, leaning slightly in the direction of Larry Page. , With a friend's heartfelt tone: "Larry, think about what these three points mean for Google? It means that Google will become Muye Science and Technology in the search engine, which means that the valuation of Google will increase rapidly. It means that your listing plan for next year will achieve better capital market valuation. You are now transferring 15% of my shares at a low price. It seems that you have lost some of your profits in the short term, but if you think about me, you will be there next year. IPO, the market value is at least 50% higher than expected, I make money, you make more money, this is the meaning of win-win cooperation. "

Larry Page was silent for a long time and nodded slightly.

although has a anger of being blackmailed, but Larry Page also understands that Li Mu is not wrong at all. Accepting his conditions means better, faster and more for Google A safe future development space. In the long run, this is a very cost-effective deal. Accept it. Google will ensure that the industry's first position will not be affected in the next five years. Yahoo wants to search by itself, and Microsoft wants to do search by itself. For Google, these are huge potential threats, but if Li Mu stands behind Google, what are the Yahoo and Microsoft?

The traffic of Yahoo is far inferior to Muye Science and Technology, and Microsoft although has a huge user group in the underlying software, but the underlying software is too far away from the normal needs of users after all, compared with user viscosity and user conversion of YY, Microsoft It is slag, if Google can get the traffic support of Muye Science and Technology, then these two major opponents will not be afraid in the future.

Thinking of this, Larry Page said, "Chief Li, 15% percentage points. I can't do it alone. Please give me a little time. I need to go back and discuss with the Google board."

Li Mu nodded and smiled: “It ’s okay to discuss, but it ’s faster. I do n’t have much time to wait for Google ’s decision, so please give me a clear answer within 24 hours.”

"24 hours?" Larry Page was a little bit bottomless.

For himself, he has admitted that he is willing to accept the general requirements of Li Mu robbers, in exchange for Google has a better future, but he is not sure whether the other directors of the board of directors, shareholders will agree, after all Everyone wants to dilute 15% of the shares to Li Mu, and it is at a price much lower than the market price, which is equivalent to everyone cutting the meat together to feed Li Mu.

For the Google founding team, the feeling of cutting meat is not very painful, but for shareholders who have just entered Google, this is very painful.

For example, Google is now valued at about 10 billion USD. Suppose a shareholder bought a 10% share of Google at a valuation of 8 billion USD a few months ago. The 10% share cost a total of 800 million. USD, now that he has not made money, he must take out 15% of the 10% shares and sell it to Li Mu at a valuation of 6 billion USD, which means that he must take out 1.5 percentage points, In exchange for 90 million USD cash, but this 1.5 percentage point, he just bought it for 120 million USD.

For such shareholders, the direct loss of 30 million USD is not the biggest problem. The biggest problem is that Google will be listed soon. At this time, all the shares are extremely precious original shares, and it may be listed for half a year. After that, the market value of Google will exceed 40 billion USD, and by that time, 1.5 percentage points will be the market value of 600 million USD.

On the one hand, 1.5 points are held in the hand, and after the listing, there is a chance to reach the market value of 600 million USD; on the other hand, 1.5 points are forced to change hands to Li Mu at a price of 30 million. The average person is really very It is difficult to be persuaded to choose the latter.

Li Mu also knew that Larry Page wanted to convince all shareholders of Google that it was not easy, so he said to Larry Page: "Larry, tell all your shareholders, do n’t think of me as blocking the road in the rugged mountains Robbery, threatening you that if you do n’t make a fortune to buy roads, you will not pass through the robbers, but think of me as a boss who owns a private highway. You could only go **** rough roads. But now I have given you the second option. This option is to pay me a certain fee. I can let you go fast from my highway. This option is yours. So, the only decision you have to make, Is to choose to continue to stumble along the mountain road, or directly drive on my highway. "

Larry Page nodded thoughtfully. The metaphor of Li Mu is indeed very appropriate. Google has never been forced to cooperate with Li Mu. Li Mu just gave Google an expensive price, and Google is deep in heart. The office really did not want to miss the choice.

In this case, you can only go back and communicate with the Google board again.

However, the time window is only 24 hours. Larry Page was a little worried, not knowing whether the board could accept the Li Mu's asking price in such a short period of time.

So, Larry Page hurriedly stood up and said to Li Mu: "Chief Li, time is running out, I have to leave first."

Li Mu nodded: "I am waiting for your news."

Larry Page said: "OK, I will give you the final answer in 24 hours."

......

After Larry Page left, Li Mu immediately began to prepare for both hands.

If Google accepts the asking price, they are all happy, and they do n’t need to spend their energy to fight him head-on;

If Google does not accept the asking price, and will never retreat and accept 10% with his own temper, then it will be a big wave with Google, in order to maintain his principle of saying nothing, for the huge dividends of the search engine market in the future , I have to talk to Google just for this wave, even if he will not die in a while and a half, he will have to be a half disabled!

So, Li Mu sorted out three options for the second situation.

The first one is to directly find Robin and specifically ask him to open all the patents and technologies of Baidu search engines to Muye Science and Technology. In return, I will divide the site with him. I can leave the China market and even the Chinese search market to Baidu. I will take the rest. After all, I am also a shareholder of Baidu and it is impossible to push Baidu to a dead end. At the same time, he has to give robin a certain dividend. After opening all the patented technologies, he will set up a Muye search subsidiary to do the search business. All the funds will be spent by Muye Science and Technology, but the share of Baidu20% will be compensated. Let Baidu share part of the operation and development work and alleviate the technical pressure of Muye Science and Technology.

In this way, Baidu became a mercenary of Muye Science and Technology, followed his own attack on Google, and then shared the war bonus;

The second one is to cooperate with Yahoo or Microsoft. Since these two companies are interested in doing search, Google is everyone ’s common enemy. Then Muye Science and Technology can cooperate with one of these two companies for the search engine business, Muye Science and Technology Provide traffic support, and the other party provides technical and hardware support;

This mode is equivalent to finding a strategic ally with sufficient weight for Li Mu. Both sides will jointly send troops and cooperate to attack Google. The advantage is that the pressure of Muye Science and Technology multi-line combat can be reduced to a greater extent. Large, at least 40%, even 49%;

The third is to simply establish a search engine alliance by yourself. You can pull in Baidu, Microsoft, Yahoo, and other interested internet companies. Let ’s set up a brand new company and develop a search engine together. To promote this search engine together, the first task of this search engine is to kill Google. After Google is killed, everyone will sit back and enjoy the benefits;

The alliance model can minimize the investment of Muye Science and Technology in the search engine. Multiple alliances can also speed up the development of the search engine and enhance the core competitiveness of the search engine, but the shortcomings are also obvious. More, the more cakes are divided, and the last one falls in his own hands, I am afraid that there will not be much, but this is the case, and it must be much better than taking Google10% shares.
