Recast youth

Chapter 844

"I'm really sorry. I was sleepy just now and didn't wake up. I thought it was someone else's call, so I hung up."

Ye Feng quickly called back.

Dudu!

The phone hangs up.

Then the phone call came again, and Wang Xin said calmly on the phone: "You hang up on me once, and I'll hang up on you once. Now we are even, let's talk."

Ye Feng was really convinced.

It's hard to raise a woman and a villain, and this was vividly demonstrated by Dean Wang's daughter. She was so vindictive that she even hung up on her several times that night without mentioning it at all.

Ye Feng was completely speechless and didn't know where to start. After thinking for a while, he calmed down and said, "That's it, my company needs a management talent, and I want Miss Wang to help me." Let me introduce you, salary is not a problem."

"Is your company in China?" Wang Xin asked on the phone.

"Yes." Ye Feng responded.

Wang Xin asked: "What industry is your company in?"

"I work on the Internet." Ye Feng thought for a while and replied.

When Wang Xin heard this, she chuckled and asked again: "Do you know that due to the domestic environment, many people are unwilling to return to China for development?"

Ye Feng couldn't help but ask: "Why?"

Wang Xin said: "There are too many restrictions and the structure is too small."

Ye Fengpin came out and the woman on the other end of the phone was such a proud woman, so she asked: "In terms of structure, what company are you in now?"

"YAHOO." Wang Xin said calmly.

Ye Feng was surprised and finally understood where Dean Wang's daughter had the confidence to speak proudly.

YAHOO means Yahoo. What kind of company is Yahoo?
It was an absolute giant in the Internet industry, at least at this point in 2005. Until 2006, it dominated three of the top 20 Internet companies in the world, with Yahoo, Yahoo Japan and Yahoo China ranking first respectively. , 1th and 7th.

The three major portals of the United States, Google, Facebook, and China's Sina, Sohu, and Netease, are all its followers and imitators.

The current Yahoo "empire" is almost invincible. It can even be said that from about 2000 to 2002, Yahoo was equivalent to the entire Internet.

Some experts even described Yahoo without exaggeration: "The Internet will one day change the entire world, but without YAHOO, I'm afraid we still can't even touch the door."

And there are still opportunities to acquire Google and Facebook, two world-class companies, including Alibaba!
You know, in 2000, Yahoo reached a market value of 1250 billion US dollars, which is equivalent to a market value of 8000 billion. For the Internet and any industry, a company of this size is basically a Big Mac and an aircraft carrier. .

However, it is a pity that as the scale becomes larger and larger, Yahoo's bureaucracy becomes more and more prosperous, resulting in a large waste of organizational resources, and the development of the Internet is changing with each passing day. However, Yahoo suffers from internal friction, swings and conflicts with the frequent changes and changes in management. The gap between other Internet giants became wider and wider, and they eventually declined. In 2016, they were acquired by the American telecommunications giant Verizon for US$48 billion.

Now that Wang Xin, a woman, can work at the Yahoo headquarters in Silicon Valley, how can she not be superior to others?It's okay to speak arrogantly, because in your opinion, speaking more wildly and arrogantly is normal to her.

At this moment, Ye Feng didn't want to recruit people anymore, and he didn't want Wang Xin to introduce any management talents. Ye Feng wanted to poach Wang Xin directly, but he just said that Ye Feng's current capital may not be able to recruit Wang Xin. in the eyes.

Ye Feng regained his composure and said, "I know YAHOO, but I have changed my mind now."

"Why have you changed your mind?" Wang Xin asked, "Do you think you can't afford to hire people around me?" Ye Feng did not rush to say that he wanted to hire Wang Xin, but asked, "What is your current position at YAHOO?"

"You don't want to invite me to your company, do you?"

Wang Xin tasted this from Ye Feng's words, and then asked as expected: "How many benefits did the old man give you, so that you tried so hard to trick me into returning to China? Why, in your eyes, am I so bad?" Is it easy to lie?"

Ye Feng asked speechlessly: "Your father is the dean of the School of Political Science and Law. Even if his salary and subsidies are high, can he afford the price? I want to hire you and it has nothing to do with being a teacher. I mainly want the company to have a professional Manager, it just so happens that you are currently working at YAHOO and have experience in a large Internet company."

"Oh."

Wang Xin snorted, and then said rudely: "Then what qualifications do you think you have to ask me to give up my position at YAHOO and join your company?"

Ye Feng returned to the original question: "Tell me first, what is your current position at YAHOO."

"I am now the senior vice president of Yahoo!, responsible for the homepage and other vertical websites, such as video websites, and report directly to Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer. Do you have anything else to say?" Wang Xin said about her position and work, It's not that he really took Ye Feng's words seriously, but he just wanted him to wake up.

Ye Feng didn't know who Marissa Maye was, but he understood what senior vice president and CEO meant. At this time, he suddenly remembered something and asked again: "Are you a graduate of Stanford University?"

Wang Xin asked directly: "Are you going to ask me if I know Yang Zhiyuan, and if I am the senior vice president through my friendship?"

"I really don't mean that. You misunderstood me."

Ye Feng explained quickly, and then said solemnly: "Ms. Wang, I formally invite you to return to China to serve as the CEO of my company. Now our company is really lacking management talents."

"I'm doing well at YAHOO, why should I agree to you? You're not really that naive, are you? How could the old man accept a student like you?" Wang Xin chuckled.

Ye Feng was not annoyed and said: "YAHOO is very good now, but it is a mature company after all, and you have no room for growth. And as you can see, YAHOO's market value has been stagnant for a long time, and is even declining. "

"Then what?" Wang Xin asked.

Ye Feng said: "Then there are problems with its decision-making. It gave up its original homepage search business, which caused Google to catch up later. It could have acquired Google as a company."

"I didn't expect you'd read a lot of news."

Wang Xin didn't find it strange. YAHOO is now the leader in the Internet industry. Every transaction and investment will attract the attention of the economic media. It is not surprising that Ye Feng knows these news. Then Wang Xin asked: "What about you? What do you think? What is it about the company that attracts me?”

"I can't explain it in a few words."

Ye Feng said, but it was a bit unclear. Now he has many layouts, such as video portals, film culture layouts, and mobile payment that has not yet been implemented.

These all take time to verify, and you also need to explain the layout to the other party bit by bit, including future trends and developments. How can you explain it clearly on the phone?

"Long story short." Wang Xin said impatiently.

Ye Feng took a deep breath and said, "I can give you the opportunity to build a company that surpasses YAHOO."

"Ah."

What came from the other end of the phone was laughter mocking Ye Feng for not overestimating his abilities.
