Reborn multinational giant

But now, because of Facebook's horizontal intervention, the conditions they want to continue to talk to Huizhong have become much more complicated than before.

Judging from the attitude of the young boss in front of him, it seems to have confirmed his thoughts.

Just as the blond man was holding his hatred in his heart, five people, led by Facebook's chief operating officer Shirley Sandberg, had just boarded a plane to China.

If it hadn’t been for the fact that myspace representatives flew to China to negotiate with the developers of "Happy Farm", perhaps Facebook and Shirley would not take it so seriously, but now, seeing myspace has no room to stand up, whether it’s the ceo. Kerberg is still Shirley or other Facebook executives, and he doesn't want any accidents in the middle.

Especially, when the executives saw that "Happy Farm" brought more than 600,000 new users to Facebook within a week, this kind of action by myspace directly stimulated the nerves of Facebook executives.

At present, Facebook has about 150 million users worldwide, and the entire company is valued at more than 15 billion U.S. dollars. Rough calculations, the value of each use is about 10 U.S. dollars, while its competitor Myspace has tens of millions of users less than Facebook. , The current data growth is also weaker than Facebook.

However, if myspace snatches "Happy Farm" at this time, with the current popularity of this game and the development trend of the snowball posture, it is not guaranteed that after two or three months, the number of mysapce users will be able to catch up or even exceed facebook.

Therefore, after the Facebook executives had a meeting, Shirley immediately decided to go to Asia on her own, and she must win the long-term cooperation contract between the "Happy Farm" R&D company and Facebook. At the worst, she would also stop the competitor Myspace's plan.

After the decision was made, Shirley ordered her assistant to contact Huizhong, the research and development company of "Happy Farm", and it happened that this call blocked the negotiation between Fang Zhe and myspace representatives.

Now that the situation is clear, the two tigers are fighting, and there must be one loss. In order to ensure that they are the winner, both myspace and facebook are willing to pay a small price, and this also just gives Fang Zhe a chance to speak a lot.

"Mr. Bruce, you also know that our game has been operating on Facebook for half a month. Judging from the current development, it is inevitable that this game will continue to be popular. As far as I know, In the first week of our game landing on Facebook, it brought more than 500,000 new users to Facebook, and now, the growth of users has a snowballing trend. Almost every day, our games will bring more than 200,000 new users to Facebook. Of new users.

This is only what we can count. According to the current user growth trend, it may be two weeks later that our game will be able to bring Facebook more than four to five million users a day. Such data is more than the natural increase of Facebook itself. I'm afraid it will be more. I believe Mr. Bruce, you should have known these data before you came."

Fang Zhe deliberatedly spoke to the blond man, and every time he said a word, he had to pause for the female representative of myspace to translate.

Bruce is the person in charge of the three representatives of mysapce's trip. Sitting in the middle, the blond man who just went out to answer the phone, he is over 40, facing a boss who is many years younger than Fang Zhe, he has nothing in his heart. The child's thoughts are underestimated.

Negotiations have been almost an hour, this young man just kept fighting with them, never responding to their questions directly, and sitting next to Zheng Siwen, who is said to be the second in command of their company, now seems to be acting purely as an interpreter, except for his own words The interpreter did not interrupt and talk too much to the young boss in front of him.

Zheng Siwen had already had a meeting with Fang Zhe before the mysapce representative came to discuss today’s coping strategies. He originally thought that if myspace conditions were right, then they would agree to myspace. After all, the two major American social giants would compete with them. It doesn't matter much, all they can do is fight for the best interests.

However, Fang Zhe resolutely opposed his idea. Zheng Siwen didn’t know that myspace was not far from destruction. As a reborn, Fang Zhe didn’t know that Zhe now would rather offend myspace than Facebook. Because in terms of history and "destiny" arrangements, Facebook's victory in this social battle seems destined.

In the future, Facebook will inevitably grow into a towering giant. If you are hated by such a big company, Fang Zhe feels that he may not sleep well, even if Huizhong may develop into a giant on par with Facebook in the future. It is not a good thing that companies of the same level are hostile.

The negotiation between the two sides has fallen into a stalemate. No matter how high the price of mysapce is, Fang Zhe is still biting and not letting go. Bruce also sees it. Now because of Facebook’s intervention, they can’t talk easily. According to the information provided by myself, the talents of Facebook have just boarded the plane, and if they are soon, they will have to arrive in China tomorrow. When they come to negotiate with Huizhong, I am afraid that the day after tomorrow will be the soonest. These two days are their opportunities.

After a while, there was still no progress in the negotiation between the two sides. Bruce also returned to the hotel to rest and rearrange the thoughts of the negotiation. Fang Zhe and Zheng Siwen got up and sent the representative of MySapce to the elevator to leave, and took a deep breath.

If it weren’t for the mysapce representative who insisted on insisting on the exclusive entry, perhaps Fang Zhe would have let go, but obviously, myspace regards "Happy Farm" as the key to the turnaround, so even if the price is higher, here They are not willing to let go, but Fang Zhe believes that after he has contacted the representatives of Facebook, they have no choice but to accept it. Compared with "Happy Farm" entering myspace and facebook at the same time, they may be more reluctant to "Happy" "Farm" is exclusively on Facebook, so Fang Zhe wants to come, and the representatives of myspace should relax on this point for the next negotiation.

Sure enough, when the representative of mysapce came back the next day, he had already revealed in words that he hoped that "Happy Farm" could enter myspace for the last time. He did not sign an exclusive access agreement with Facebook. Fang Zhe did not reject his request, but he did not agree. He definitely cannot let go of it easily before Facebook does not issue conditions.

Another day later, the facebook representative also appeared in the meeting room of Huizhong, and the myspace representative, also knowingly, did not come to Fang Zhe when he waited for news in the hotel. This was the first time since the establishment of Huizhong. A very high person, Shirley, the chief operating officer of Facebook, not to mention her current position as the second-in-chief of Facebook. The resume of the previous Google vice president is also a heavyweight identity. She can come to Huizhong to lead the negotiation and see that Facebook The emphasis on strengthening cooperation with Huizhong is inevitable.

The day before, the representative of myspace still returned to nothing. After learning about these news, Shirley immediately understood that this Chinese company was waiting for their Facebook to open the terms, although two major American companies were vying to follow A small Chinese company cooperated, and it was a bit shameful to say it, but with the popularity and achievements of the international version of "Happy Farm" in the United States, they couldn't help but let them down and patiently negotiate terms with Fang Zhe.
