Chapter 1612: Driving Microsoft Away

"Not enough!" Lin Feng said calmly.

"Mr. Lin, we are already very sincere. You are also a shareholder of 'gg1e' and should understand the potential of 'gg1e'. The current stock price is by no means a true reflection of the potential of 'gg1e'!" Sergey Brin said a little annoyed.

Larry Page's proposal is already very sincere, but you, Lin Feng, can't take the opportunity to blackmail. ——Sergey Brin was quite annoyed, but was stopped by Larry Page.

"Mr. Lin, we came to you this time with great sincerity, and I also hope that you can show your sincerity. Of course, if you want to see 'inte1' acquire 'gg1e', then just ignore what I said." Larry Page looked at Lin Feng and said calmly.

"Sincerity? I have, of course! I no longer ask for shares, but 'gg1e' must give me a promise!" Lin Feng said with a smile.

No shares required! ——Larry Page and Sergey Brin breathed a sigh of relief. The original debt that "gg1e" had to repay this time was 0.7 billion US dollars. The reason why it only increased by 100 million was that they did not want Lin Feng to hold too many shares of "gg1e" personally. Otherwise, if "inte1" was driven away and finally swallowed by Lin Feng, it would be a tragedy for "gg1e". Now Lin Feng no longer asks for more shares. This is the bottom line of "gg1e". Everything else is negotiable.

"I wonder what other requirements Mr. Lin has?" Larry Page asked.

"My requirements are very simple. If I need it, then "gg1e" must fully promote all the products of my company in the future. Of course, I will pay the normal advertising fee. But I must ask for it to be on the front page!" Lin Feng said with a smile.

The reason why Lin Feng wants to acquire "Baidu Yahoo" and covet "gg1e" is to see the future impact of the Internet on the world. And the biggest impact on the Internet is the search engine. Therefore, Lin Feng can create a god without acquiring "gg1e", but he must require "gg1e" to promote his company's products at the first time. Especially when promoting the same type of products at the same time as competitors.

Larry Page and Sergey Brin pondered for a while. This request was not excessive, but it had a great impact. If they agreed to Lin Feng's request, then "gg1e" would be equivalent to cooperating with Lin Feng in disguise. In a sense, "gg1e" was equivalent to being acquired by Lin Feng.

After thinking for a while.

"Okay, we agree to this request. 'gg1e' will give priority to cooperating with Mr. Lin's company for advertising!" Larry Page agreed.

Lin Feng smiled.

"What other conditions does Mr. Lin have?" Sergey Brin asked again.

"There is one more thing, I think this is also a consensus that both of us must reach." Lin Feng smiled.

What consensus? ——Larry Page and Sergey Brin were stunned.

"It's very simple,  we will join forces to drive 'Microsoft' out! In the future, there will only be 'Baidu Yahoo' and 'gg1e' in the search engine industry. If any other party appears, we will join forces to kill them all!" Lin Feng's eyes were full of murderous intent.

"In this competition between Baidu Yahoo and GGE, other search companies are eyeing it, especially Microsoft, which has been deliberately trying to replace our two companies. Its wolfish ambition is obvious. But Microsoft is too powerful, and neither my Baidu Yahoo nor your GGE can drive it out. So, we can only cooperate!" Lin Feng said in a sedulous way.

Next year, in 2015, the latest generation of Microsoft's operating system "ST" will be launched, and it will also be the day when the "Second World" launches its own operating system. Although Lin Feng knows that "ST" is the worst operating system launched by Microsoft, it can be described as inferior to the point of being unbearable. However, as the absolute king of the personal computer operating system industry, Microsoft's strength is beyond doubt.

Therefore, if he wants to beat Microsoft next year, Lin Feng must win over all partners. Ellison's "Oracle" is one, and "GGE" is also one. Since it is temporarily impossible to acquire "GGE", it is better to seek cooperation.

So is "GGE" willing to cooperate? ——The answer is obvious.

"Mr. Lin, I think we are in agreement on this issue. We will work together to drive Microsoft out of the search engine industry, cut off its tentacles, and fight against the power of Microsoft. In addition, we will also drive the rest of the search engine companies out of the search engine industry." Larry Page said.

"The battle between the donkey and the elephant" - the US presidential election has always been a "battle between the donkey and the elephant". "Baidu Yahoo" and "gg1e" should also follow the example of the two major parties in the United States. No matter how "Baidu Yahoo" and "gg1e" fight, it has nothing to do with outsiders. If other companies want to come in, that's not possible!

Moreover, with the existence of two companies, the US Department of Commerce cannot sue "Baidu Yahoo" or "gg1e" for monopoly!

"Mr. Lin, then I wish us a happy cooperation!" Larry Page stretched out his hand.

"Happy cooperation! But I will still try my best to make "Baidu Yahoo" surpass "gg1e"! Of course, it is not a despicable means like "inte1", but reasonable competition!" Lin Feng said with a smile.

"Haha, we at 'gg1e' will also try our best to completely overwhelm 'Baidu Yahoo', of course it's also fair competition!" Larry Page also laughed.

The two held hands tightly.

Perhaps this is the most suitable relationship between "Baidu Yahoo" and "gg1e" at present - since competitors are also partners.

Immediately, Lin Feng held a press conference with Larry Page and Sergey Brin, and signed a stock increase agreement at the press conference - Lin Feng purchased 7.5% of the shares of 'gg1e' for US$100 million, of which 8.75% were Class B shares with 100% rights, and the other 8.75% were Class B shares without 100% rights. Once this news was announced, the industry was like a super typhoon - shaken!

No one expected that the two parties who were fighting each other before would now cooperate. This is incredible! It's like you saw Bush and Bin Laden swearing to destroy each other in the previous second, but the next second, the two became brothers drinking at the table. Such a gap is really surprising and unacceptable.

Of course, compared to the outside world's inability to accept, the real anger, even a little hysterical and furious, is that "e1" believes that the acquisition of "gg1e" is a done deal. This time, "gg1e" is doomed and will inevitably be swallowed up by "inte1". Then "inte1" will use the power of swallowing up "gg1e" to fight against Lin Feng's acquisition of "" and unify the home personal computer graphics card market.

Who would have thought that at the moment of success, Lin Feng would come out halfway and invest 100 million US dollars to increase "gg1e"'s shares by 7.5% to help "gg1e" survive this crisis. This is something that "inte1" never expected, and it was beyond "inte1's estimation. "inte1" did not expect this situation at all.

Bastard! Shameless! —— Barrett, president and ce of inte1, was furious in the office. The originally perfect plan was eventually disrupted by Lin Feng. Barrett felt that his ass hook was full of fire, burning with anger.

"Mr. Page, your cooperation with Lin Feng is undoubtedly seeking the skin of a tiger." Barrett called Larry Page, hoping to change the decision of "gg1e", at least not to let "gg1e" sell all the increased shares to Lin Feng.

"Mr. Barrett, I hope you understand that our cooperation with Lin Feng is just a simple business cooperation, which does not mean that we will become friends with Lin Feng. As for whether it is seeking the skin of a tiger, I think I would like to ask Mr. Barrett this sentence. When 'inte1' chose to support us 'gg1e', did it also intend to swallow up our 'gg1e'? If so, I think 'inte1' will scare us!" Larry Page said coldly.

"Mr. Page, I think there may be some misunderstandings between us!" Barrett was very anxious. Although it was said that "inte1" did intend to swallow up "gg1e" at the beginning, but the plan has been exposed, and "gg1e" actually sought to cooperate with Lin Feng, which is definitely not good news for "inte1". Regardless of whether "gg1e" still maintains a good relationship with "inte1", at least "gg1e" cannot cooperate with Lin Feng, which is something "inte1" cannot allow.

"Mr. Barrett, I think no matter what misunderstanding there is, it doesn't matter. What's important is that 'gg1e' has survived another difficult time and has grown another step. By the way, Mr. Barrett, I hope Mr. Barrett will attend the board meeting on Monday on time." Larry Page hung up the phone after saying that.

"Hello, hello!" Barrett wanted to explain something, but the phone had become silent.

Damn it! ——Barrett hung up the phone angrily.

Monday? What will happen? ——Barrett thought about it, and Monday ended in a flash.

"Haha, Mr. Barrett, long time no see!" Lin Feng laughed and greeted Barrett who appeared at the "gg1e" board meeting enthusiastically.

Lin Feng! ——Barrett's heart skipped a beat. Lin Feng actually appeared at the board meeting. This was definitely not good news for "inte1".
