Tincobal and Broadcast, in fact, are absolutely controlled by the Westeros system.

Claire wondered: "Boss, I think that as long as you agree, you don't need an IPO."

The main purpose of most IPOs is to raise funds.

However, for Tinkerbair, although it was not established for a long time, this electronics company has started to generate stable cash flow by relying on the hot sale of its products. Even if it needs financing, it is very convenient to use debt financing now.

The most important point is that it is very cost-effective to carry out an IPO for Tinkerbal.

Tincobell has maintained a performance growth of more than 100% for the past two consecutive years, and there has been no sign of slowing revenue growth in the first few months of this year. Coupled with the explosive digital music player just launched, it can be said Like Igrid, the later this company conducts an IPO, the higher its valuation.

An IPO in the short term will only amount to a bargain sale.

Claire is also aware of this, and mentions Broadcast to Simon, but only hopes that his boss will promote the private merger of the two companies, and there is no intention to promote Tincobair's IPO.

Simon just shook his head and said: "Of course there are other reasons, C, are you satisfied with the current development trend of Tinkerbal?"

Girl C suddenly smiled and said: "Seriously, boss, when I first started, I really didn't think that Tin Cobail could grow to the current scale, but it was already very satisfying."

Simon was speechless.

Claire laughed softly.

To make a joke, Simon took a sip of the coffee next to him, took the sunglasses and took it to cover the afternoon sun on the terrace, and said, "In fact, it's not just Broadcast. I also hope Tinkerbair will be able to Acquire Apple."

Girl C was a little surprised: "Boss, Apple's declining momentum is very obvious now, I..." At this point, Claire suddenly understood what he was doing and sat up slightly, looking at Simon: "Well, boss, you want to support Apple, And the operating system quietly developed by Igret, competing with Microsoft?"

After a period of nonsense, Eaglet has officially reached an agreement with Microsoft to pre-install the IE browser for the overseas version of Windows.However, both in the circle and in the media, we can see that there are signs of discord between the two companies. There have been a lot of relevant signs in recent years.

In the same circle, Claire naturally felt deeper. When Simon mentioned the apple, she quickly reacted.

Simon did not deny it and nodded directly, saying: "It is not just competing with Microsoft, Apple has a lot of things whether it is Igrid or Tinker Baier in the next step."

Girl C kept up with this time: "Patent?"

This is the result of Simon's long-term face lift.

A long time ago, just after Tinkerbair was established, Simon emphasized the importance of patents to C girl more than once. For the entire Westeros system, almost all enterprises have a dedicated department responsible for applying for various kinds in the United States and even around the world. Brand trademarks and patented technologies.

The effect is spectacular.

Simon nodded again: "Yes, patents, because the operating system was developed earlier than Microsoft. Apple has a large number of core patents related to operating systems. Only with these patents can we successfully launch another set of operating system platforms. This can ensure that the Internet ecology of the Westeros system is not constrained by the Microsoft Windows system. In fact, as the second largest shareholder of Microsoft, I don’t want to develop into a second operating system that competes with Windows. However, Because Gates not only does not want Microsoft to be part of the Westeros system, but also has a lot of hostility towards us, I can only do this. Even with the introduction of Linux-based personal computers,

Tinkerbair can develop to this day, and the C girl is very clear that her own boss has played a vital role in it. Over the years, the rapid rise of the bystander Westeros system, Claire has been almost blind to his own boss. Trust, after listening to Simon's explanation, the girl directly said: "So, boss, I have started to prepare for the IPO in the near future?"

Simon leaned on the recliner and tapped a few times on the wooden chair of the recliner, saying, "In this way, you first discuss the merger and acquisition with Jeff. Although I can directly decide, I still need to get Igrid. The cooperation there, as well as the New York Times Group, they are also important shareholders of Broadcast after all, waiting for you to complete the merger before you start the IPO."

Claire turned sideways on her recliner: "Boss, so, did you agree?"

Simon is not a person who lacks determination.

Whether it is to maintain the sole operation of Broadcast to become a large online audio sales platform for all digital music players in the future, or to integrate it into the market advantage that Tinco Bayer maintains to the greatest extent, it is a very good choice.

However, the previous plan wants to be realized and I do not know what day to wait, during which time there will be many changes.The latter is close.

The merger of the two companies will also maximize Tinkerbal's Internet attributes and help the valuation of the subsequent IPO.

Simon agreed to the question of Girl C, and said: "Although this is the case, you will have to face more challenges next. Before that, I meant to concentrate all the major recording giants on the Broadcast platform. Make it a unique online genuine audio sales platform for all digital music players. Because Broadcast does not belong to any hardware company, the difficulty of this matter is relatively low. Now, once you merge, think again It’s hard to get a license from a record company. Like Sony, because of the Walkman’s interests, they certainly won’t easily put music on the Broadcast platform.”

Girl C blinked and said, "Boss, do you think there will be a second electronic manufacturer that can compete with Tinkerbair's digital music player?"

Simon smiled: "This is certain, I know you have built a very strong patent barrier on your side. However, in this respect, you are certainly no match for the veteran manufacturers such as Sony. With this month's hot sales situation, I think other manufacturers will develop products of the same type as long as they are not stupid."

In the past history, the iPod was launched in 2001. It was not until 2005 that Jobs opened this product to the Windows system under Apple's internal pressure, which prompted the outbreak of iPod sales.However, at that time, the iPod had actually missed the excellent period of monopolization of the market, whether it was Sony or Microsoft, have successively launched digital music player products.

Immediately after the advent of the smartphone era, traditional feature phones also began to integrate MP3 functions on a large scale, leading to the rapid elimination of MP3 players by the market.

Therefore, the dominance of the iPod is actually only a few years from 2005. Even if the arrival of the new era has dampened the enthusiasm of other manufacturers to develop MP3 players, the iPod’s market share will remain only about 60% after 2006. .

It is different now.

Although Moore's Law's semiconductor performance doubling period is very short, it will take time after all, which means that from 1995 to 2005, there will be at least 10 years, limited to the performance of semiconductor chips. It is impossible for electronic manufacturers to use digital cameras, Digital music players and other products are too integrated, not impossible, but the performance is difficult to meet the standard, and the cost will be very expensive, which makes the relatively single performance of other types of digital music players have at least a decade of prosperity.

In ten years' time, even if Tincobal is strong again, under the trend of huge profits, there will inevitably be competitors who will spare no effort to develop this market.

C Girl plans to acquire Broadcast mainly to gain more initiative in terms of content.

At this time, listening to Simon say this, and then combining with the other plans of Broadcast he just talked about, he realized that he did not have the long-term thinking of his own boss after all.

Simon looked at the expression of C girl and said: "In fact, there is one more thing, the popularity should be similar to the VCD I plan to promote in China, mainly relying on pirated resources. This point, you should have felt it in recent times. In fact You can give Broadcast to you, so that you can block the mouths of those record companies to the greatest extent. Of course, everyone knows this matter well, don't say it."

Girl C nodded with a little smirk, as if she had done something bad with her boss, and said: "However, Sony has already protested against us."

Simon laughed: "Sony is the least qualified to do so. The video recorder that Hollywood sued Sony, they finally won. If Sony initiated the same lawsuit, their own case would happen to be taken as a precedent. Of course, in me It seems that the main role of piracy should be to force those record companies to authorize Broadcast to sell genuine music resources. You must bear in mind that, at the right time, Igerett and Tincobal will also take the initiative to jointly combat piracy. C, you Understand that copyright is the root of the entertainment industry. If we don’t respect this, then piracy will destroy the entire entertainment industry. At that time, hardware companies such as Tinker Baier that depend on the entertainment industry will only die."

Girl C nodded solemnly.

The two continued to chat, and as the time approached two o'clock in the afternoon, they got up from the terrace together.

Claire quit her job at Tincobell headquarters, Simon came to the master bedroom of the villa, the housekeeper was still asleep, aware of the movement around her, woke up keenly, sat up, her pale face still had the faint light of the first wake up Blushing, very tempting.

...

...

The only online genuine audio sales platform for all digital music players.Because Broadcast does not belong to any hardware company, the difficulty of this matter is relatively low.Now, once you merge, it's hard to get a license from the record company.Just like Sony, because they want to protect the interests of Walkman, they certainly will not easily put music on the Broadcast platform."

Girl C blinked and said, "Boss, do you think there will be a second electronic manufacturer that can compete with Tinkerbair's digital music player?"

The two continued to chat and watched the clock close before getting up from the terrace together.
