In fact, both tincobail and broadcast are absolutely controlled by the westrow system.
Claire listened to Simon about IPO and said, "boss, I don't think it's necessary to IPO Tinkerbell as long as you agree to this."
The main purpose of most IPOs is to raise funds.
However, for tincobail, although it has not been established for a long time, relying on the hot sales of a series of its products, the company has begun to generate enough stable cash flow for the next stage of expansion. Even if it really needs financing, it is very convenient to finance through debt at present.
The most important point is that it is not cost-effective to IPO tincobail now.
Tincobail has maintained over 100% performance growth in the past two consecutive years, and the revenue growth in the first few months of this year showed no sign of slowing down. In addition, the newly launched digital music player iPlayer quickly gained market recognition. It can be said that, like igritte, the later the IPO, the higher the valuation the company can get.
IPO in the short term is selling at a low price.
Claire is also aware of this. When she mentions broadcast to Simon, she just hopes that her boss will promote the private merger of the two companies. She doesn't mean to let Tinkerbell go public.
Simon just shook his head and said, "of course, there are other reasons. C, are you satisfied with tincobail now?"
C girl suddenly showed a good-looking smile: "seriously, boss, when I first started, I didn't think that Tinkerbell could develop to the present scale, so I was really satisfied."
Simonton was speechless.
Claire chuckled softly.
After some joking, Simon took a sip of the coffee next to him, picked up his sunglasses and put them on to cover the afternoon sun on the terrace. He said, "in fact, it's not just broadcast. I also hope Tinkerbell can buy apple in the last two years."
Girl C was a bit surprised: "boss, Apple's decline is very obvious now, and..." At this point, Claire suddenly understood something, sat up slightly and looked at Simon: "boss, do you want to support apple, and the operating system that igritte quietly developed to compete with Microsoft?"
After a period of wrangling, igritte has formally reached an agreement with Microsoft to install IE browser on overseas windows. However, whether in the circle or in the media, we can see signs of discord between Microsoft and westero system. Recently, there have been many signs of discord.
In this circle, Claire naturally felt more deeply. When Simon mentioned apple, she quickly responded.
Simon didn't deny it. He nodded directly and said, "it's not just competing with Microsoft. Apple has a lot of things that igritt and Tinkerbell need very much."
C girl this time directly follow: "patent?"
It's the result of Simon's long-term exposure.
A long time ago, Simon emphasized the importance of patents to C girl more than once when Ting Cobell was founded. In the whole westero system, almost all enterprises have special departments responsible for applying for various brand trademarks and patented technologies in the United States and around the world.
The effect is remarkable.
Simon nodded again and said: "yes, patents, because the operating system was developed earlier than Microsoft. Apple holds a large number of core patents related to the operating system. Only by obtaining these patents can we successfully launch another set of operating system platform, which can ensure that the Internet Ecology of westero system is not constrained by Windows system to the greatest extent . In fact, as the second largest shareholder of Microsoft, I don't want to develop a second operating system to compete with windows. It's just that Gates not only doesn't want Microsoft to integrate into the westero system, but also has considerable hostility towards us. I can only do so. However, even if the personal computer with Linux system is launched, its market share will not be too high in the future, and it will not become the core business of igrit and tincobail. In the final analysis, it's just an insurance that Microsoft is afraid of. I want gates to understand that if Microsoft can't support the Internet Ecology of westero system, it will only drive users to our Linux platform. "
Tincobail can develop to today, C girl is very clear that her boss has played a crucial role in it. Over the years, watching the rapid rise of the westero system, Claire has almost blind trust in her boss. After listening to Simon's explanation, Claire said directly: "well, boss, I started to prepare for the IPO in the near future?"
Simon tapped his fingers on the wooden support of the reclining chair, shook his head slightly and said, "well, you can discuss the merger of broadcast with Jeff first. Although I can make a decision directly, it still needs the cooperation of igritte and the New York Times Group. They are also important shareholders of broadcast after all. When you finish the merger, you can get the cooperation of igritte And start IPO again. "
Clare leaned over in her recliner and confirmed, "boss, so you agree?"Simon is not a man who lacks decision.
It is a good choice to keep the independent operation of broadcast, to become a large-scale online audio sales platform for all digital music player markets in the future, or to integrate it into Tinkerbell to maximize the market advantage of iPlayer.
It's just that things can't be both.
What's more, I don't know when the first plan will come true, and there will be many changes in it. However, the latter one is just around the corner, so it's not difficult to make a choice.
The merger of the two companies will also maximize the Internet attributes of dinkbaier, which will contribute to the IPO valuation in the future.
Simon agreed to C girl's question and said, "even so, you still have to face more challenges. Before that, my intention was to focus all the major record giants in the world on the broadcast platform and build it into the only online legitimate audio sales platform for all digital music players. Because broadcast does not belong to any hardware company, the difficulty of this matter is relatively low. Now, once you merge, it's hard to get a license from a record company. Just like Sony, in order to protect the interests of Walkman, they certainly will not easily put music on the broadcast platform for sale. "
C girl blinked: "boss, do you think there will be a second digital music player manufacturer that can compete with tincobail?"
Simon said with a smile: "this is certain. I know you have built a very strong patent barrier. However, in this respect, we can't match the accumulation of Sony's established manufacturers. With the popularity of iPlayer in the past month, as long as other manufacturers are not stupid, they will definitely start developing similar products as soon as possible. "
In the past, the iPod was launched in 2001. It was not until 2005 that jobs opened the MP3 player to windows and other platforms under the pressure of all parties, which eventually led to the explosion of iPod sales. However, at that time, the iPod has actually missed the best period of monopolizing the market. The major digital music player manufacturers around the world have launched related products one after another, and there is a larger number of fake assembly market.
Moreover, the era of smart phones is coming, and the traditional function machines have begun to integrate MP3 functions on a large scale, which leads to the rapid elimination of MP3 players by the market.
The result is that the iPod is the only one in the world. In fact, it is only a few years since 2005. This is because the arrival of a new era has hit the enthusiasm of other manufacturers to develop MP3 players. Even so, the market share of the iPod has decreased to about 60% after 2006.
Now it's different.
Although Moore's law's semiconductor performance doubling cycle is very short, it will take time after all, which means that from 1995 to 2005, there will be at least 10 years left. Due to the performance of semiconductor chips, it is impossible for electronic manufacturers to integrate digital cameras, digital music players and other products too much. It is not that they can't do it, but that the performance is difficult to meet the standard and the cost will be very expensive, This makes the relatively single function of iPlayer and other digital music players have at least a decade of prosperity.
In ten years, even if tincobail is strong and has huge profits, competitors will spare no effort to develop this market.
C girl plans to merge broadcast, mainly to gain more initiative in content.
At this time, hearing Simon say so, combined with the man just mentioned another plan of broadcast, he realized that he didn't have the long-term vision of his boss after all.
Simon looked at C girl's expression and said, "in fact, the popularity of iPlayer should be similar to the VCD I plan to promote in China, which mainly depends on pirated resources. You should have felt this recently. In fact, it's better to give you broadcast, which can block the mouth of those record companies to the greatest extent. Of course, it's good that everyone knows about it. Don't say it. "
C girl then nodded with a little bad smile, as if she had done something bad with her boss, and said, "however, Sony has protested against us."
Simon said with a smile: "Sony is not qualified to do this. Hollywood sued Sony for the VCR, but they won in the end. If Sony launches the same lawsuit against us, their own case will just be taken as a precedent. Of course, in my opinion, the main role of piracy should be to force those record companies to license broadcast to sell genuine music resources, which you must bear in mind. At the right time, igrit and dinkober should also take the initiative to jointly crack down on Internet piracy resources. C. You have to understand that copyright is the foundation of the entertainment industry. If we do not respect this, then the proliferation of piracy will destroy the entire entertainment industry. At that time, tincobail, a hardware company attached to the entertainment industry, will only die out. "
Clare nodded solemnly to make a note.
The two continued to chat, only to get up from the terrace together as the time approached two o'clock in the afternoon.Claire left for tincobail headquarters to continue his afternoon work. Simon came to the master bedroom of the villa. The housekeeper was still sleeping. She was aware of the movement around her. She woke up sharply and sat up with a faint blush on her white face, just like a newly awakened spring sleeping Begonia.
Simon walked over and gently pushed the girl back to the bed. He also leaned on his side and looked at the cool beauty in front of him with his head in one hand. He asked with a smile, "does it feel good to be lazy?"
Maybe it's because she just woke up. The housekeeper's temperament is a little less fiery, but a little more charming. She slightly tilts her head to look at Simon, and her tone is asking: "I should go to work."
Simon couldn't help it. He went up to the girl and gave her a kiss on the lip. Then he said, "wait, let's go together."
Alice just whispered, and continued to look at the man close by.
According to Simon's personal advice, under Claire's "work for the tiger", housekeepers are now required to work less than 10 hours a day, and they are also required to have compulsory rest on weekends. Although this pace of work is still beyond the normal working hours of most Westerners, it is nothing in Silicon Valley, and women are forced to learn to delegate power to work as much as possible Give responsibility to others.
Alice is not an ungrateful person, it is clear that men are doing her good.
No one can afford to work hard for a long time. What's more, even if they are no longer willing to admit it, women are not as good as men in physical strength.
Moreover, the development of Amazon online mall has not been affected after maintaining a relaxed pace of work. After putting down her work, the housekeeper also has more time to think about all aspects of e-commerce. At the same time, she is more and more aware of the correctness of men's admonition of the rules of labor.
If any enterprise is small in scale, it has no problem to do everything by itself. However, if you want to grow, it will only be counterproductive to do everything yourself.
The scale of igritte e-commerce business is already very large.
If we can't give more work to professional people as much as possible, this part of the business will either collapse or stop.
During this period of time, she got the stock reward she deserved, and suddenly had a huge fortune of more than 2 billion dollars, far more than the boldest goal she had ever set. On the contrary, Alice began to be confused. Looking at the man for a moment on the big bed in the bedroom, Alice finally whispered, "boss, you already have so much. Why are you still working hard?"
Simon was slightly stunned, and then showed a smile: "to talk about life, I like this."
Then he simply stepped off his shoes and gave himself a more comfortable posture.
Alice rolled her eyes slightly, and moved aside, but with inquiry in her eyes.
Simon lay down beside the girl, feeling the good smell of women, put his hand on the girl's smooth face, and asked with a smile, "do you think you have so much money and you feel confused in life?"
Alice hesitated a little and nodded.
However, just waiting for a man to make a long speech, the result is that the other party's heavy body directly pressed over. Before the fall, I only heard some hateful guy say that he preferred men and women to talk about the last step of life.
Until four o'clock in the afternoon, they finally left the bay villa and went to the nearby igritte headquarters to start working.
The housekeeper got an answer from Simon.
When you feel confused about life, set yourself a goal for the next year, or a month, or a day, or even an hour, and then try to achieve it. What's more, this goal doesn't have to be the so-called striving to make progress. It can be any sudden idea in your mind, such as drinking a glass of water, folding a paper airplane, reading a poem, cleaning your desk, learning a painting skill, and taking a walk on the road.
Perhaps in the future, when you recall the past, you will feel that your life is at least very full.
It's like ants.
Conscientiously for the instinct in the gene to pay a lifetime, when death comes, there will be no regret.
In the final analysis, on the vast scale of the universe, there is no difference between human life and ant life. When you are confused, it's better to let yourself live more fully than to think about life in vain.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

The merger of the two companies will also maximize the Internet attributes of dinkbaier, which will contribute to the IPO valuation in the future. Simon agreed to C girl's question and said, "even so, you still have to face more challenges. Before that, my intention was to focus all the major record giants in the world on the broadcast platform and build it into the only online legitimate audio sales platform for all digital music players. Because broadcast does not belong to any hardware company, the difficulty of this matter is relatively low. Now, once you merge, it's hard to get a license from a record company. Just like Sony, in order to protect the interests of Walkman, they certainly will not easily put music on the broadcast platform for sale. " C girl blinked: "boss, do you think there will be a second digital music player manufacturer that can compete with tincobail?" Simon said with a smile: "this is certain. I know you have built a very strong patent barrier. However, in this respect, we can't match the accumulation of Sony's established manufacturers. With the popularity of iPlayer in the past month, as long as other manufacturers are not stupid, they will definitely start developing similar products as soon as possible. " In the past, the iPod was launched in 2001. It was not until 2005 that jobs opened the MP3 player to windows and other platforms under the pressure of all parties, which eventually led to the explosion of iPod sales. However, at that time, the iPod has actually missed the best period of monopolizing the market. The major digital music player manufacturers around the world have launched related products one after another, and there is a larger number of fake assembly market. Moreover, the era of smart phones is coming, and the traditional function machines have begun to integrate MP3 functions on a large scale, which leads to the rapid elimination of MP3 players by the market. The result is that the iPod is the only one in the world. In fact, it is only a few years since 2005. This is because the arrival of a new era has hit the enthusiasm of other manufacturers to develop MP3 players. Even so, the market share of the iPod has decreased to about 60% after 2006. Now it's different. Although Moore's law's semiconductor performance doubling cycle is very short, it will take time after all, which means that from 1995 to 2005, there will be at least 10 years left. Due to the performance of semiconductor chips, it is impossible for electronic manufacturers to integrate digital cameras, digital music players and other products too much. It is not that they can't do it, but that the performance is difficult to meet the standard and the cost will be very expensive, This makes the relatively single function of iPlayer and other digital music players have at least a decade of prosperity. In ten years, even if tincobail is strong and has huge profits, competitors will spare no effort to develop this market. C girl plans to merge broadcast, mainly to gain more initiative in content. At this time, hearing Simon say so, combined with the man just mentioned another plan of broadcast, he realized that he didn't have the long-term vision of his boss after all. Simon looked at C girl's expression and said, "in fact, the popularity of iPlayer should be similar to the VCD I plan to promote in China, which mainly depends on pirated resources. You should have felt this recently. In fact, it's better to give you broadcast, which can block the mouth of those record companies to the greatest extent. Of course, it's good that everyone knows about it. Don't say it. " C girl then nodded with a little bad smile, as if she had done something bad with her boss, and said, "however, Sony has protested against us." Simon said with a smile: "Sony is not qualified to do this. Hollywood sued Sony for the VCR, but they won in the end. If Sony launches the same lawsuit against us, their own case will just be taken as a precedent. Of course, in my opinion, the main role of piracy should be to force those record companies to license broadcast to sell genuine music resources, which you must bear in mind. At the right time, igrit and dinkober should also take the initiative to jointly crack down on Internet piracy resources. C. You have to understand that copyright is the foundation of the entertainment industry. If we do not respect this, then the proliferation of piracy will destroy the entire entertainment industry. At that time, tincobail, a hardware company attached to the entertainment industry, will only die out. " Clare nodded solemnly to make a note. The two continued to chat, only to get up from the terrace together as the time approached two o'clock in the afternoon.Claire left for tincobail headquarters to continue his afternoon work. Simon came to the master bedroom of the villa. The housekeeper was still sleeping. She was aware of the movement around her. She woke up sharply and sat up with a faint blush on her white face, just like a newly awakened spring sleeping Begonia. Simon walked over and gently pushed the girl back to the bed. He also leaned on his side and looked at the cool beauty in front of him with his head in one hand. He asked with a smile, "does it feel good to be lazy?" Maybe it's because she just woke up. The housekeeper's temperament is a little less fiery, but a little more charming. She slightly tilts her head to look at Simon, and her tone is asking: "I should go to work." Simon couldn't help it. He went up to the girl and gave her a kiss on the lip. Then he said, "wait, let's go together." Alice just whispered, and continued to look at the man close by. According to Simon's personal advice, under Claire's "work for the tiger", housekeepers are now required to work less than 10 hours a day, and they are also required to have compulsory rest on weekends. Although this pace of work is still beyond the normal working hours of most Westerners, it is nothing in Silicon Valley, and women are forced to learn to delegate power to work as much as possible Give responsibility to others. Alice is not an ungrateful person, it is clear that men are doing her good. No one can afford to work hard for a long time. What's more, even if they are no longer willing to admit it, women are not as good as men in physical strength. Moreover, the development of Amazon online mall has not been affected after maintaining a relaxed pace of work. After putting down her work, the housekeeper also has more time to think about all aspects of e-commerce. At the same time, she is more and more aware of the correctness of men's admonition of the rules of labor. If any enterprise is small in scale, it has no problem to do everything by itself. However, if you want to grow, it will only be counterproductive to do everything yourself. The scale of igritte e-commerce business is already very large. If we can't give more work to professional people as much as possible, this part of the business will either collapse or stop. During this period of time, she got the stock reward she deserved, and suddenly had a huge fortune of more than 2 billion dollars, far more than the boldest goal she had ever set. On the contrary, Alice began to be confused. Looking at the man for a moment on the big bed in the bedroom, Alice finally whispered, "boss, you already have so much. Why are you still working hard?" Simon was slightly stunned, and then showed a smile: "to talk about life, I like this." Then he simply stepped off his shoes and gave himself a more comfortable posture. Alice rolled her eyes slightly, and moved aside, but with inquiry in her eyes. Simon lay down beside the girl, feeling the good smell of women, put his hand on the girl's smooth face, and asked with a smile, "do you think you have so much money and you feel confused in life?" Alice hesitated a little and nodded. However, just waiting for a man to make a long speech, the result is that the other party's heavy body directly pressed over. Before the fall, I only heard some hateful guy say that he preferred men and women to talk about the last step of life. Until four o'clock in the afternoon, they finally left the bay villa and went to the nearby igritte headquarters to start working. The housekeeper got an answer from Simon. When you feel confused about life, set yourself a goal for the next year, or a month, or a day, or even an hour, and then try to achieve it. What's more, this goal doesn't have to be the so-called striving to make progress. It can be any sudden idea in your mind, such as drinking a glass of water, folding a paper airplane, reading a poem, cleaning your desk, learning a painting skill, and taking a walk on the road. Perhaps in the future, when you recall the past, you will feel that your life is at least very full. It's like ants. Conscientiously for the instinct in the gene to pay a lifetime, when death comes, there will be no regret. In the final analysis, on the vast scale of the universe, there is no difference between human life and ant life. When you are confused, it's better to let yourself live more fully than to think about life in vain.
