Volume 1: Little Lotus Shows Sharp Corners, Chapter 772, Jeff (Asking for Votes)

Next chapter

Ralph looked at the information he was holding, his brow furrowed. Why would the boss pay attention to such a company, a company with online books, which can't be connected to the Internet, even if it is an emerging industry? Is there any potential for growth?

But the boss's decision was right, although he didn't understand, he still sorted out the information and sent it to Feng Yu immediately.

Feng Yu looked at the information in his hand, the Amazon company was registered in Washington State last year, but in July this year, it was renamed and opened, and it is an Internet company specializing in books.

This company is not large, and since it was founded last year, it has not been profitable for so long!

Feng Yu is even happier, there is no profit, then it will not be too difficult for him to inject capital into Amazon, or buy shares in the hands of other shareholders.

The Amazon model is actually not difficult, the difficult thing is to survive this difficult period, and if you are not careful, you will lose in the Internet bubble around the millennium, and many Internet companies in the previous life went bankrupt after the millennium. Even Yahoo, which was once a giant, has lost 90 percent of its assets.

"Ralph, call this Mr. Jeff, make an appointment, I'm going to visit him." Feng Yu said excitedly.

Ralph immediately went to make arrangements, but was still confused. That Jeff? Bezos also investigated, it seems that he used to be a shareholder executive of a fund trading management company, is the boss trying to recruit this person?

Isn't it, the boss was interested in this online bookstore first, did he want to invest in this company? Who will buy books online? How nice it would be to go straight to the bookstore and buy it! This company, why can't he see anything profitable?

……

Jeff? Bezos was arguing with an investor who felt he was too conservative to make money. We should take advantage of the current hyped network concept to find a way to raise funds and go public, and then take advantage of the stock price rise to make money by dropping the company.

Jeff immediately objected, this is a company he founded single-handedly, how can it be casually dropped? Besides, he wants to run the company well, what's wrong with the safe plan?

Now those who are hyping up the concept of the Internet are indeed soaring stock prices for the time being, but those are all false prosperity and will collapse sooner or later. His prudent route can minimize the company's risks, which is the most long-term business strategy.

These black-hearted investors know how to make money, but they don't know what a dream is! Even if it's to make money, shouldn't it just look at the immediate benefits and look to the future and don't know?

Why was he blind in the first place, and found these people to invest. I don't know the Internet at all, I don't know how to operate, and I also come to point fingers at him! Even if it's better than investment, are you better than me? I also come from a financial background!

"Mr. Jeff, your phone number is claiming to be the secretary of a Microsoft director." Jeff's secretary ran over and shouted.

What the? The secretary of the Microsoft director called me? Jeff is overjoyed, if he can persuade the directors of Microsoft to invest in him, then these damn greedy investors, he will kick them all out!

Jeff immediately went to pick up the phone: "Hello, I'm Jeff?" Who are you, Bezos? ”

"I'm Ralph, the secretary of Director Feng of Microsoft, and my boss wants to see you."

"Okay, then when Mr. Feng has time, I can visit him at any time." Jeff said quickly.

"No, my boss meant, he wants to visit you, or rather, by the way, visit your company, do you understand what I mean?"

Jeff held back his ecstasy, what this means is too clear, that director Feng of Microsoft has taken a fancy to his company!

"I welcome Mr. Feng over at any time, and I am free at any time."

"Is that okay with tomorrow morning?" Ralph asked.

"No problem, I will wait for Mr. Feng in the company tomorrow."

Jeff hung up the phone and turned to look at the shareholder who was arguing with him just now: "Aren't you going to sell your shares?" Well, your shares, I bought! ”

With the capital injection from Microsoft's directors, the company's development is bound to be smooth sailing. He can now drop the house, drop the stocks of other companies in his hand, and invest all in the Amazon company, he firmly believes that the Amazon will develop very well!

The minority shareholder was also confused, did Jeff really receive a call from a Microsoft director, and did Microsoft want to inject capital into the Amazon? Otherwise, where did Jeff get the confidence to buy his shares? But with the capital injection from Microsoft's directors, why should I lose my shares?

……

"Boss, alright, Jeff will be waiting for you tomorrow day in the Amazon."

"Well, let's get over the morning. You have also read the information of this company, do you think this company needs to invest? Feng Yu asked.

"Boss, I don't see the need for investment in this company. It's just a bookstore in the name of the Internet, and there are more than one bookstore in any city. And you can read a few pages first, and then buy it when you feel interested. This online bookstore, you can only see the cover, I don't think there is any potential. And it will also be necessary to stock up on a large number of books, which will be very costly. Who wants to buy a book and get it a week later? ”

"Of course, if the statement is more beautiful after investment, and it will be listed on the NASDAQ two years later, you can still make a lot of money by taking advantage of the popularity of Internet stocks. However, the return on investment period is relatively long, and it is better to direct the stocks of companies that have been listed in the network technology category. Well, maybe my opinion is a bit one-sided. ”

Feng Yu nodded: "No, what you said is very good. These shortcomings do exist objectively. This company, in a short period of time, will certainly not be profitable. But do you see the merits of this company? ”

"Pros? In addition to being an online company, perhaps because it is an online bookstore, it can display more types of books, more than physical bookstores. But it's going to be a hassle to find unless they can make a good search engine. Ralph thought for a moment and said.

"Correct. If they can have a good search engine, they can let customers find the books they are looking for in the shortest possible time. Whether you search for the author's name, country, publisher, or book name, you'll find the book you're looking for. Even the date of publication can be one of the search criteria. And the most powerful thing about this online bookstore is that it has more options for readers than any other bookstore. Perhaps in the short term, this company does not have any development potential, but once it does, the future will be bright. Feng Yu said with a smile.

"So, boss, are you going to invest in this company?"

"Of course, I would also like to be a major shareholder if possible." It would be great if the Amazon became his controlling shareholder, I don't know if this goal can be achieved, let's see how we talk about it tomorrow...... (To be continued.) )
