Chapter 764: Directors Not in Business

Microsoft's board meeting, including Bill? Gates and Paul, who's not always in the office? Allen was present, but there was a director, who didn't show up, just to have the secretary make a phone call, for reasons of delay.

“Hmm, some people, taking up positions but not doing the corresponding work, such people should no longer sit in that seat!” Paul? Alan snorted coldly and looked at the empty chair.

Other directors don't look too good either, they all think that this director Feng, some of it is too rampant. Though you're the third largest shareholder in the company, you can't keep others out of sight, can you?

Bill Gates is also feeling a little uncomfortable, and although Microsoft's software is gaining ground in the Huaxia market, and its goals are well accomplished, Microsoft is not making much money. The price of cooperation with Lian Wan can't be lower anymore.

If you want to talk about Feng Yu's work, it's really done, and it's done well. But you can't come to the company every day. Although you are a shareholder and a director, I still have to work in the company often!

If you're just an ordinary shareholder, just to invest in making money, then of course you can't come to the company. But you're still Microsoft's director, the core management!

“I heard that Director Feng went out every day with a lady companion, and the other day he went to Boeing to buy a helicopter.” A director said.

“I also heard that Director Feng went to Amazon to invest in that small company. Is there anything worth investing in?” Another director spoke.

The other directors also started talking about Feng Yu's inappropriate work. This time, the board suddenly turned into a criticism convention, but Ballmer didn't say anything.

The other directors didn't notice, but Bill? Gates and Paul? Alan noticed.

Paul Allen asked, “Steve, Von is your vice president for the Asia-Pacific region, and I want to hear about it. ”

“Market share in the Asia-Pacific region has been increasing, with the exception of a handful of regions such as island countries and India, where most have come first, whether operating systems, office software or even IE browsers," Ballmer said proficiently. The biggest increase was in Huaxia, and Feng's work was still very good. ”

Paul Allen is very dissatisfied with what I want you to say. You fucking bragged about that kid!

“He doesn't come to work for the company. As president of the Asia-Pacific region, shouldn't you be in charge?” Paul? Alan continued to ask.

Ballmer looks like a tough one: "Paul, Feng can't ask for a single salary, including his secretary's, which he's paying himself. He said the company didn't pay him. Of course he wouldn't come to work. I don't know how to refute him. Can you teach me? ”

Paul Allen was so angry, he said that Feng Yu's salary could not be too high, because Feng Yu didn't have much work, Feng Yu simply said that he didn't want a penny of salary, so long as he was a director, he deserved the equity incentive. Even later, Feng Yu's secretary paid for it himself. He thought that he had finally embarrassed Feng Yu. I didn't expect Feng Yu to wait for him here.

There seems to be nothing wrong with not paying a salary and not working. And he doesn't go to work all the time. Actually, the least qualified person in here to talk about Feng Yu is him, Bill? Gates is at least three days a week in the office.

“Well, I'll talk to Feng later, let's not discuss this. After all, without Feng, Microsoft would never have achieved such a good result in Huaxia. When Huaxia's users, three or five years later, get used to using our Microsoft systems and software, other software companies in Huaxia Market should also go bankrupt. We are returning prices to the same level as the rest of the world, when our profits will surely skyrocket!” Bill? Gates said confidently.

Is this Bill, too? Gates promised Feng Yu the real reason to even think about the super low price. To be honest, Huaxia's economic level is not comparable to those of Europe and the United States, and consumer perceptions urgently need to be nurtured. Take the market first, wait for the market to completely take over and increase the selling price, then the profit will come naturally.

Even if the price is so low now, the same profit isn't it?

Bill Gates said that, and no one else said anything. No one, including Paul, can refute this. They were able to grow up because they signed agreements with IBM and then constantly signed agreements with other PC companies to expand the market.

Didn't they get to pin down the PC companies in the end? And profits far outweigh those companies. This model moves to the Huaxia market, although it is more extreme, but think about how big Huaxia is. If the selling price is consistent with that of Europe and the United States, Microsoft's profit will surely increase by at least 50%!

……

At the time of Microsoft's meeting of the board, Feng Yu, a director who had no business in their mouth, was signing a contract with Jeff, and he officially invested in the Amazon contract.

From the time he signed, he was Amazon's first major shareholder, and he got Ralph in touch with all the other shareholders, trying to figure out that no shareholder, like Jeff, had ever thought about selling shares, but they all wanted to make some money, that is, asking for premiums.

This is not a problem for Feng Yu at all. As long as Jeff is still in the Amazon, and as long as Jeff's valued managers are still in the Amazon, Amazon deserves Feng Yu's continued investment.

In this capital injection, Feng Yu asked to be kept as low as possible. Amazon can advertise, of course, but Feng Yu doesn't want to show up. He told Jeff that claiming to the media that there was a mysterious millionaire investing in Amazon was more likely to arouse curiosity and ensure better publicity.

And Feng Yu also learned a little news that Ralph had told him that Jeff was also selling securities in his hands, etc., as if he was also planning to acquire shares in other Amazonian shareholders.

This news, in fact, Feng Yu is very happy to hear, which means that if Jeff is going to put all his property into Amazon, he will be completely tied to Feng Yu's chariot.

When he left Amazon, Feng Yu received a call from Ballmer.

“Von, Paul and others have so many microwords about you not coming to the company, I think you'd better talk to Bill. ”

By default, Feng Yu took the initiative to find Bill? Gates, talk to me. Better than Bill? Gates went to talk to Feng Woo.

“Okay, thanks, my friend. ”

Feng Yu actually wanted to talk to Bill Gates. He thought he should take another long vacation or something. The next thing you know, he's going to be busy in New York for a while, and then he's going home, at least for a few months.

Anything you need, you can call me, you can email me, you don't have to sit at the office every day, do you?

“Hello, Bill, it's Feng. I wanted to tell you, I'm taking a long vacation. ”
