Chapter 943 All Beings
“ICQ may undergo a major change. Irene Doherty has stepped down as the president of Google, and the former president of Novell Schmidt will serve as the president of Google.
Irene is likely to return to ICQ. She is the person who is most familiar with ICQ. Bruno Song will also return to ICQ’s board of directors, including Wesley, ICQ’s former technology president, Greg, legal president, and Marcus, chief financial officer. The founding team will be back!
ICQ has always been one of the darlings of the Internet industry, and its changes may have a huge impact on the entire Silicon Valley and the Internet industry! ”
The next day, the Wall Street Journal also commented on ICQ’s changes. Like other media, it was quite optimistic, but it still did not forget to pour cold water on it.
“But the current ICQ is completely different from before. The entire Nasdaq is in a state of collapse. The stock price and market value of ICQ are almost cut off from the peak value of 300 billion US dollars.
Internet market conditions and huge debts may make the market value of ICQ not change immediately as investors expected in the short term! ”
The media is basically like this, let them say everything pros and cons, absolutely non-stick, if the stock price of ICQ rises, it is their credit, if the stock price falls, the media has also warned of the risk, anyway, it will not happen wrong.
“Song, it is rumored that you will split ICQ, is it true?!”
“Can the market value of ICQ return to 300 billion U.S. dollars?”
“Some media and analysts believe that the era of ICQ is over, Song, what do you think?!”
Song Yang, Irene, Greg, and Marcus came to the ICQ headquarters building, and were immediately surrounded by reporters waiting at the door, throwing various questions at them.
Under the **** of Heishui Security, Song Yang and others walked towards the building. As for the media’s questions, Song Yang, Irene and the others just laughed and said nothing. Talking nonsense on such occasions is easy to be caught For the little braids to target, any crimes such as manipulating stock prices can be charged.
However, when asked about his views on the future of ICQ, Song Yang stopped, turned to the reporter, and said with a smile, “I’m back, everything is back, and now ICQ needs to sail again. It will sink, and it will go further!
I think that in the future, the market value of ICQ will exceed one trillion US dollars! ”
“Song, I remember this, you also said this to Amazon!”
A reporter directly exposed Song Yang’s routine. When Amazon went public, Song Yang also said this. As a result, even if Amazon’s stock price skyrocketed by hunting down Wall Street’s short sellers before, now the stock price has fallen again. Going down, the distance is one trillion US dollars, let alone indefinitely, anyway, it doesn’t feel much closer than the distance from the earth to the moon.
Song Yang laughed without refuting, and directly entered the ICQ headquarters building. At this moment, in a villa in Canada, a man watched Song Yang on TV and couldn’t help but clenched his fists.
All of this belonged to him, and he was once surrounded by the media, but now everything is gone, and he can’t even get out of the villa.
“Damn it, almost, if it wasn’t for the **** internet crash, this would all be mine!”
Little Edgar Bronfman finally got angry and pushed all the cutlery on the table to the ground.
The bodyguards and servants in the villa are no strangers to this scene. After being brought back from America by old Bronfman, Edgar Bronfman Jr. has become moody. It’s not much better, but at least he still has the airs of the son-in-law, and now that one is gone.
After returning to the old nest of the Bronfman family, he was locked up in the villa by the old Bronfman.
Little Edgar Bronfman didn’t want to go out, even after he went out, those people still respected him, but he knew that it was not for him at all, but for old Bronfman and the Bronfman family The billions of dollars left behind are just for respect.
As for Edgar Bronfman Jr., he also knows that those people are probably arranging him in private, basically calling him two titles of “unlucky guy” and “prodigal bastard”.
In the past few years, little Edgar has lost all the family property that old Brown saved so hard in America. There is not a single hair left. Even the ancestral Seagram Wine Industry has been lost by Song Dynasty Yang was taken away.
After the bet on ICQ collapsed, if the old Bronfman hadn’t cleared the position in time, it is estimated that there would not be much left.
It would be fine if ICQ really collapsed, but now, when the Bronfman family lost all their wealth because of ICQ, Song Yang took back the controlling stake in ICQ, returned to ICQ, and threatened that ICQ was worth trillions of dollars, This completely broke Bronfman’s mentality!
Compared to before, every time ICQ held a board meeting, a group of Wall Street institutions Goldman Sachs, Deutsche Bank, etc., as well as Telephone and Telegraph Group, Enron Group, and Bronfman Group attended.
But this time the board meeting was held, there was a sense of “desertness”. All the previous ICQ directors had disappeared. Goldman Sachs, Deutsche Bank, Telephone and Telegraph Group, Bronfman Group, etc., Nasdaq collapsed At that time, all ICQ stocks were cleared.
Now there are only two directors left on ICQ’s board of directors. Except for Song Yang, the major shareholder of ICQ who holds more than 51% of the shares, there is only Comcast Group, which holds 10% of the shares.
Representing Comcast Group, Brian Roberts, who came to attend the ICQ board meeting, felt quite different when he saw Song Yang.
It’s only been less than a year, but what happened in this year can almost catch up with the past ten years. The old Roberts retired, and Brian Roberts, who has already served as the president of Comcast, is a little lucky now. When Immelt was fighting for the majority shareholder of ICQ, Song Yang did not support him, but supported Immelt.
At that time, Brian Roberts was still a little dissatisfied with Song Yang, but now, Brian Roberts can only rejoice that Song Yang only wanted to kill the big family, and didn’t want to cut the leeks of Comcast Group, otherwise Edgar Brown Jr. It is estimated that Brian Roberts will also experience the treatment of Fenman!
“Brian, I didn’t expect you to appear here!”
In the lounge next to the meeting room, when Song Yang saw Brian Roberts, he smiled and said to him, but it really surprised Song Yang. He didn’t expect that the Comcast Group hadn’t completely run away. Even pinched a part of ICQ’s equity.
“I don’t think ICQ will go down, especially since you’re still here, Song!”
Song Yang frowned, and Brian Roberts gave almost the same answer as Immelt had when he was at General Electric that day.
ICQ’s headquarters meeting room is not large, and the new headquarters is still under construction. The original plan was to build a landmark building in San Jose, but if it doesn’t start, I’m afraid it will become a black history of San Jose…
There were many people sitting in the conference room, including Iger, President of American Telecom, Andy Lake, President of ICNC Television, Bob Wright, President of NBC Group, Ron Meyer, President of Universal Pictures, and Doug Moore, President of Universal Music. Reese, the head of Comcast Networks, and more.
However, the people sitting inside can be described as beings, and you can see all kinds of expressions on their faces. Bob Wright from the former General Electric group, Ron Meyer from the Bronfman family group, Doug Morris, etc. People are like eggplants beaten by frost.
Eiger, Andy Lake and others had another look on their faces. Andy Lake’s face was full of excitement, and he looked eagerly at his “rival” Bob Wright.
In the past, Bob Wright’s NBC Group wanted to take over the ICNC TV station. At that time, General Electric was the majority shareholder of ICQ. Bob Wright pressed Andy Lake to beat him, forcing Andy Lake to The offices of ICNC TV stations have all moved away from the NBC Group and returned to San Jose.
But who knows that the wind and water will take turns. The collapse of Nasdaq has changed everything. General Electric actually sold all the shares in ICQ and completely liquidated it. The Bronfman Group and others left ICQ long ago.
This put NBC Group, Universal Pictures, Universal Music, etc. into an embarrassing situation immediately. Their backers in ICQ are gone. On the contrary, the big sponsors of American Telecom and ICNC TV have become the big sponsors of ICQ again. host.
Seeing the “bad” look cast by Andy Lake, Bob Wright felt that he might be doomed. As America’s former media giant, NBC Group, this time, it might fall, and become another media group instead. Its brand!
When Song Yang, Brian Roberts, Irene and others pushed open the door of the conference room, all the people in the conference room, who were big figures in their respective industries, immediately stood up.
