Chapter 164 Refusal to Acquire

The two of them said that the car had already arrived at the place.

Mark, the owner of Facebook, lived in a small room for rent, which Xu Jiahao did not expect. Although Wang Zhengfei knew it early, he still felt a little emotional when he really saw it, because the other party was not only like this when he had no money now, even if he had billions of dollars in the future. I still don't change my surname.

After opening the door, both sides were surprised by each other's youth. Xu Jiahao were still good. They had already learned something through the previous information. They knew that Mark and Xu Jiahao were the same age, also 84 years old, one year older than Wang Zhengfei, but Mark did not know that Xu Jiahao and Wang Zhengfei were so young. He only I knew that he was the head of a company from China. I thought he was an old man in his forties and fifties, but I didn't expect him to be so young.

"How are you!" As soon as Mark opened his mouth, he stammered Chinese, which surprised Wang Zhengfei and Xu Jiahao.

Mark had a proud smile on his face, and then said in fluent English, "Well, I speak Chinese well. You know, my girlfriend is Chinese!"

Wang Zhengfei suddenly had a black line. Is this still good? However, considering the identity of the other party's American, it's okay!

"Just sit down. I'm a little young here. God, I didn't expect it to be so young!" Mark said with a kind of amazement. China is really a magical country!"

"Ha ha, there is a word in China called hero out of youth, which is indeed a very magical country!" Speaking of his country, Wang Zhengfei is still very proud.

"I think you should know our intention!" Wang Zhengfei said.

"Yeah, I've learned about it. God, it's hard to imagine that someone on the other side of the ocean has the same idea as me!" Mark shrugged his shoulders exaggeratedly.

Wang Zhengfei knows that this same idea does not mean the idea of making a social networking site, because this social networking site has existed for a long time, not their originality. His same idea is that the structure and creativity of Facebook and Renren are surprisingly similar, just like twin brothers.

In fact, there is nothing strange about this. Renren.com in the previous life copied most of the settings and ideas of Facebook, and the creative source of Renren.com now comes directly from Renren.com and Kaixin.com in the previous life, so it is not surprising that it feels similar.

"But things in the world are so wonderful, aren't they?" Wang Zhengfei laughed and said with a pun, which not only refers to similar things, but also refers to his rebirth.

In fact, rebirth is the most wonderful thing he encounters. Nothing else can be compared with this thing, so he becomes much calmer after rebirth, because compared with rebirth, everything else is floating clouds, and the person who has been reborn is so confident.

"Yes, God can't explain many things!" Mark continued to shrug his shoulders.

"Let me explain our conditions this time. I believe it is absolutely the best!" Xu Jiahao said.

"Oh, no, I think you misunderstood me. I didn't want to sell Facebook at all!" Mark shrugged his shoulders and said.

"Mr. Mark, our company is willing to pay five million dollars to buy Facebook, and you can easily get more than dozens of times the return. This is a win-win thing, isn't it?" Xu Jiahao said.

"Oh, no, Facebook is my work. Just like my child, I can't sell it!" Mark said.

Xu Jiahao looked at Mark with a surprised face. Obviously, when he contacted him last time, Mark was not so determined, and he still wanted to sell it. How long did he completely change his mind?

In fact, he didn't know that Mark wanted to sell it at the beginning. Facebook was just a gadget he accidentally made. Before that, he had done a lot of similar things, and many companies had thrown olive branches at him. When many young people were still confused about the future, he didn't do it at all. He needs to worry about this. For him, the annual salary of one million is simply the same, and it is still after tax.

So he doesn't care much about Facebook at all. Besides, at present, Facebook has not brought profits and keeps losing money, but he is not a fool. On the contrary, he is still very smart. Someone comes to ask for an acquisition, which means that some people are optimistic about the future, and it is also a company far away in China.

All this aroused his curiosity. What is the reason why a company far away in China came to the United States to buy it? You know, his understanding of China is quite limited. The only thing he knows is from his Chinese girlfriend's mouth.

Soon he found the information of this Chinese company named Ruifeng through online channels, and he was immediately surprised that there was nothing to add, because the company started with a social networking site, and the setting of Renren was surprisingly similar to the Facebook he had just completed. If it hadn't been launched a year ago. Renren.com, he may also think that Renren plagiarized his Facebook, because he knows very well that Facebook is original.

After knowing all this, he knew why the Chinese company came all the way to acquire his company, because the two sides are of the same type of company, and it is obvious that the other party has the ambition to dominate the world and can enter the American market by acquiring his own company, so there is no need to be sincere. Doubtful.

However, although this is the case, he doesn't want to sell it, because since the other party is so optimistic, it does not mean that his Facebook is a very potential company, otherwise the other party will not come to the door, or to be precise, that is, this market has great potential. Since the other party has achieved great success in China, then It is a good reference case. A large part of the reason for success in China can also be copied in the United States. You only need to modify some details.

So instead of selling millions like this, it's better to continue to do it. Even if it can't reach the situation of the other party sweeping the world in China, it is always much better than selling millions now.

He still knows how to measure the pros and cons, so he quickly changed his mind and didn't agree to sell it. The more anxious the other party was, the less he could not sell it.

He knows this. Although he is very casual many times, it does not mean that he is a very casual person. He is much more shrewd than many people. The reason why he refuses Microsoft in the so-called rumors is that he doesn't want to get up at eight o'clock in the morning. Naturally, it is absurd, but He just doesn't want to. It's just because he doesn't want to. There is no absurd reason. Although this doesn't want to be very absurd, going to work at Microsoft is the dream of a student who studies computers.

"six million!" Wang Zhengfei suddenly said.

"I'm sorry, I really don't mean to sell Facebook!" Mark said helplessly.

"7 million!" Wang Zhengfei added one million and one million, and only felt that the other party should think that the money was too small.

"I'm really not interested!" Mark said with a smile. Facebook is a carefully prepared work of mine. It is impossible to give up. If you give up Renren, are you willing to?

"Of course not, but that's different!" Xu Jiahao said.

"What's the difference!" Mark said with a smile on his face.

"We are now the largest social networking site in China, and your Facebook, at least looks worthless now!" Xu Jiahao's tone was a little proud.

"If it's worthless, will you come to me specially?" Mark said with a smiling face.

At this point, Wang Zhengfei immediately understood what this mark meant, what Facebook was that his works would not be sold, etc. These were nonsense. The reason why he saw the good prospects of social networking sites from it. He felt that he could also make money from it, so he refused.

To be fair, there is nothing wrong with his decision to do so. If it were someone with a little future vision, he would do the same.

Wang Zhengfei sighed. It seems that future confrontation is inevitable!

With a smile, he stood up and said, "We know what you mean, but you made a little mistake. The reason why we came to you is not what you think. Your Facebook is really so excellent. You have also seen that our Renren.com and your Facebook are surprisingly similar, not you at all. As you think, we are really optimistic about this market, and in the United States, you are not the only one who is making this cake bigger, and I think you know that. I chose you just because you are the most similar to us and the easiest to do!"

Mark's face was a little stunned. He didn't expect that Wang Zhengfei would say so directly, and suddenly he found that he really seemed to think too much, or to put it bluntly, that is, to say, he is to think too highly of himself.

"In this case, we also know Mr. Mark's attitude, so we will stay soon!" Wang Zhengfei said goodbye.

When he went downstairs, Wang Zhengfei's face was a little gloomy. Xu Jiahao said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I'm too impatient, otherwise I won't let him find out!"

"It's not your problem, but he doesn't want to sell it at all!" Wang Zhengfei said. He remembered that in his previous life, although Facebook had venture fund investment, it had not been completely acquired by others from beginning to end. Even if Microsoft paid for the acquisition, they did not acquire it.

"In this case, it is impossible to expect to buy him to open the American market, and we will have one more opponent!" Wang Zhengfei said, "Now I'm ready to investigate the U.S. market, and then prepare for the simultaneous launch of the United States and Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan!"

Since you can't avoid confrontation, let's burn the war to the other party's backyard!
