Extraordinary Genius

Feng Yu was planning to return home when Super Wei was fighting Intel, but before returning, he met an old friend.

“Feng, you invited me to your house without worrying about the negative effects on you? ”

“Ha-ha-ha, it's you who should be worried about, not me. Steve, sit down, it's their coffee, you try to like it. ”

Feng Yu met Steve at his home in Los Angeles. Ballmer, then President and CEO of Microsoft.

Ballmer sat down as usual, took a sip of coffee and seemed to like it very much.

“Feng, are you trying to reconcile Silver Mountain with Microsoft by calling me here? Are we redistributing the market? ”

“Steve, we don't have to do this anymore, and you know it's impossible, unless you Microsoft admit to failing and give up half the market. ”

Let Microsoft give up half of the market, of course Microsoft will not agree. Even though the XOS system is gaining momentum at this time, more users are still using Microsoft.

And it's even more unlikely if Microsoft admits it failed, even if Ballmer agrees, Bill? Gates, they would never agree. Besides, Ballmer himself disagrees.

“So you asked me to come over? ”

Ballmer's heart actually had speculation, but he said it, like Feng Yu said, it would definitely work differently.

“Steve, remember what I told you, Microsoft is not a great place to work. Bill Gates' character dictates that he won't give you much power. Paul, also one of the founders, had little power, and he labeled Microsoft himself. ”

“Feng, I'm Microsoft's president and CEO now, and when Bill retires in the future, I can be chairman and Microsoft's chairman! ”

Feng Yu smiled. “Steve, Bill is only a year older than you. When he retires, will you be able to work? Even now, you're Microsoft's president and CEO, but how powerful is your president and CEO? How many things can you decide? ”

“Bill? Gates is still the chairman of the board, and the big things in the company still require his consent. Let me give you an example, head of Microsoft Warsaw. Do you have the authority to appoint? ”

“Feng, the appointment of the executive is through the board of directors, which is an inappropriate example.” Ballmer rebutted.

“What about the vice president? Vice president of Huaxia, president and CEO of your head office, and third largest voting director of the company, do you have the authority to appoint? Or your nomination, can you pass?” Feng Yu asked with a smile.

Bauer was silent, and Feng Yu said that this happened more than once in reality. He suggested several executive positions, but only one passed, or because that man was Bill's favorite.

He is an executive in the name of the company, but in practice his powers are very limited. He's got a voice in the company, not even Paul? Although Paul? Alan is the second largest shareholder and one of the founders of the company, but he's the second best in the name of the company!

But he's a second-hand man, really just nominal.

And of course, there's also a substantial benefit to him, as president and CEO, being paid higher salaries, getting more Microsoft stock awards or stock options.

But that's not what Ballmer wanted, and he's not so bad now, he's got billions of dollars in assets. He wants more power, he wants Microsoft to lead him up higher mountains.

Instead of being considered, he's just Bill? Gates raised a puppet, and this president's powers are similar to those of the CEOs of other companies.

“Steve, a lot of people talk about you now, and I think you've heard that. Your credit to Microsoft shouldn't just be like that. And your abilities, they shouldn't just be showing these. ”

“Look at the presidents or CEOs of other big companies. How powerful are they? Their words and deeds represent the company. And you, can you? ”

“When people talk about Microsoft, they always think about Bill? Gates, maybe Paul? Alan, but who thought of you? This is unimaginable in other companies. The CEO should be the representative of the company in the eyes of the public media, not just a messaging machine! ”

“Are you really happy in Microsoft? Can you really fulfill your dreams? ”

Feng Yu's words were like a giant hammer. The hammer hit Ballmer's chest, making him feel shorter and more depressed.

He was glad he joined Microsoft early and became one of Microsoft's giants step by step. He used to think he'd be one of Microsoft's business cards.

But reality slapped him hard, and people said that Microsoft rarely mentioned him.

He thought about it, too, Bill? Gates may retire, but as Feng Woo said, Bill? Gates is a year older than him, Bill? When Gates retires, won't he retire with him?

Before, Bill? Gates gave CEO to him. It means retirement. Is that because of Bill? Gates lost his quest, the richest man in the world, solitary in his quest for defeat.

But now it's different, the richest man in the world has become the younger Feng Yu in front of him. Bill Gates' life has a new goal, and it may not be a short time away.

So, Bill? Gates' retirement will be delayed. Can he wait for that day?

Look at that Ralph, once he didn't give a shit. But now, Ralph has become the CEO of Windstorm Holding Group and has become a success story for many. Importantly, despite Feng Yu's brand, Feng Yu dared to give power to others.

Ralph's family skyrocketed, his status skyrocketed. If that doesn't explain anything, what about Masahiro Kamada?

When I was with Feng Yu, I was said to be a bankrupt, unemployed youth. But with Feng Yu's help, he rose step by step and gained Feng Yu's full trust, becoming president and CEO of Windstorm Holdings.

Though CEOs have now been ceded to Ralph, Masahiro Tortoise is still regarded by many as the representative of Windstorm Holdings. Masao Kameda's connections have also expanded dramatically, and assets have risen dramatically.

It's only been a few years, and we've got him.

In this way, it seems to follow Feng Yukan, the income will be higher and the achievements will be greater.

But at this time, Feng Yu's two holding group companies, the executives are all gone, even if he goes, what position can Feng Yu give him? And when he takes up his duties alone, can he count on the support of others?

He's Microsoft, or nominal executive. Though this handful needs to be quoted, he is more familiar with it after all.

If you go with Feng Yu, if you fail, where will he go in the future?

At this moment, Ballmer was lost.
