Chapter 1308 The spoiler Bai Ningyuan
Son Masayoshi's face was full of entanglement.
From the founding of SoftBank Group in 1981, he has experienced countless investments and ups and downs in the business world, so these experiences have made him use his smart brain to carefully consider the choice in front of him.
I have to say that he was moved by Ma Yun at the time and resolutely invested in Alibaba that no one is optimistic about. Now, this seems to be his most correct choice back then.
What he chose to invest in Alibaba for was not because he was optimistic about Alibaba's development prospects? It was just that Ma Yun's proposal now obviously contrary to his purpose. After all, everyone present knew very well that the treasure of wealth was the most valuable property.
Tick, tick.
The venue suddenly became quiet, and everyone's eyes were all focused on Masayoshi Son. No one spoke, and only the sounds made by the wall clock on the wall were in his ears.
The air seemed to have solidified. In the current environment, every minute and every second seemed to pass extremely long, and it was an invisible torment.
Whether to choose the future or the current interests is indeed a question.
After weighing the trade-offs in his heart for a long time, Masayoshi Son finally made a choice in his heart. He let out a long sigh, then looked at Ma Yun and said lightly: "Sorry..."
After all, he is not a philanthropist, but a businessman, and interests are the goal he pursues.
Hearing Masayoshi Son's words, Ma Yun's face instantly became a little pale and solemn, while Butz looked happy.
From the very beginning, she believed that as a qualified businessman, Masayoshi Son would definitely make the right choice.
After all, their investment is just for money.
As for the life and death of this company, they won’t care about it. If it really doesn’t work, just find a better opportunity and sell it.
Now, after completing today's phased victory, Bartz felt that it was time to make a change in Alibaba's leadership issue. Thinking of this in her heart, she looked at Ma Yun with full of contempt.
Things seem to have become very clear now. The voting rights of Yahoo and SoftBank have combined to surpass Ma Yun and its management. Under such circumstances, it seems that it is a foregone conclusion to reject Ma Yun's proposal.
As for how to solve the difficulties faced by Zhifubao after rejecting his proposal, Yahoo and SoftBank are not in the mood to consider.
In any case, Alibaba is just a project they invest in, and it also values Alibaba's development prospects. If any changes occur, they just need to withdraw in time and ensure that their interests are not damaged. As for Alibaba's life or death, I'm sorry, it has nothing to do with them.
What's more, the current output value of Alibaba has made their investment over the years a very successful investment.
"Mr. Sun, are you thinking about it?" Ma Yun's face showed a little anxious, and he persuaded Son again with a little unwilling heart. Until now, he still had no intention of giving up his efforts.
"Okay, Mr. Ma, please stop making any unnecessary efforts. The statement you submitted has completely damaged the interests of Yahoo and SoftBank in Alibaba. We will not agree to such conditions. I think today's meeting can end now." Butz looked at Ma Yun with a sneer and said to him with a harsh attitude. It is obvious that she was full of resentment towards Ma Yun.
"In order to enable Alibaba to operate normally, it is irrational to violate the regulations of the Central Bank of China, and Alibaba's damage is obviously a huge impact on your investment. Therefore, under reasonable circumstances, it is the wisest choice to divest Zhifubao from the company. For this reason, I personally will compensate you for the losses you have suffered, and you can still enjoy the huge benefits brought by Alibaba. From this point of view, it is the most correct. Mr. Sun, please consider it again!" Ma Yun ignored Carol Bartz's sarcasm for him, but looked at Masayoshi Sun with a sincere face and continued to persuade him with great thoughts.
Masayoshi Son and Ma Yun have been acquainted for many years. What's more, over the years, with Alibaba's rapid development, they have gradually grown into a giant crocodile in the field of e-commerce in China, bringing a lot of returns to Masayoshi Son, making Masayoshi Son feel that investing in Alibaba is indeed the most correct choice he has made in so many years.
So, for a moment, Ma Yun's trust and Ma Yun's sincere attitude were almost shaken. He looked at Ma Yun who looked at him with anticipation. After hesitating for a moment, he finally sighed softly and said, "Masang, I'm sorry..."
When he arrived here, Ma Yun's face suddenly turned pale, and what he remembered was Carol Bartz's laughter.
Butz has been really unhappy with Ma Yun for a long time.
This "iron lady" in the IT industry has always been known for being tough. Since taking office, she wanted to give Ma Yun a warning to her when she visited her. So the conflict between the two sides suddenly became intensified. Especially later, Yahoo suddenly sold 1% of Alibaba's equity without warning. In addition, the support for Gu Ge's withdrawal from China made the conflict between the two sides almost openly.
In her eyes, Ma Yun is just a teacher, what qualifications do you have to talk to her?
In addition, Yahoo is now in a recession in the global field and her many measures have never been effective. Her abilities have been questioned by the Yahoo board of directors. This American woman who is in menopause obviously does not want to lose control of Zhifubao.
Within Yahoo, the valuation of Zhifubao has already occupied half of the entire Alibaba.
Today's meeting was as she expected, without any danger. When she heard Son's answer, she stood up, unscrupulously released her aura, and announced loudly: "Okay, this matter is just like this, today's meeting can end..."
Facing her arrogant appearance, Alibaba's management team looked heavy, and they didn't know where the future would be.
"Wait, I think, do you also want to listen to my opinion?"
While Carol Bartz's voice was still echoing in the conference room, a cheerful voice suddenly came from outside. Immediately afterwards, the door of the conference room was pushed open from outside, and Bai Ningyuan's figure suddenly appeared in everyone's sight.
Seeing Bai Ningyuan appearing, Ma Yun's originally hanging heart finally landed.
Bai Ningyuan had not arrived for a long time before, and he thought something had happened.
"Mr. Bai, the meeting we have set is nine o'clock. You are already twenty minutes late, or you are really busy with noble people!" Bartz said to Bai Ningyuan without hesitation. Perhaps she has not had time to put away her mean pattern now, so she is also full of sarcasm for what Bai Ningyuan said.
"Sorry, there's traffic jam on the road, and my phone just ran out of power." Bai Ningyuan said with a harmless smile on his face, and at the same time raised the black phone in his hands at everyone.
"By the way, who has a charger, please connect me to charge it." Bai Ningyuan said to everyone in the management as if no one was around. He soon borrowed one, walked to the side and plugged it into the power supply.
The whole process looked very natural.
But Barts was immediately angry, but couldn't say anything to refute. This traffic jam and the lack of power in the mobile phone are always the best excuses.
"Even if you come, it's useless. You have never expressed your opinion anyway." Butz probably didn't want to lose face, so he left a resentful sentence before sitting down again.
"Where did you just talk about it?" Bai Ningyuan looked at the people in front of him and said with a smile, "I wonder if anyone can tell me what I missed?"
Masayoshi Son and Butz frowned involuntarily. Although they could clearly see that Bai Ningyuan was looking for trouble, no matter what, Bai Ningyuan is also one of the major shareholders with 18% equity and 12.6% voting shares. He really can't tell me what he does.
After hearing Bai Ningyuan's words, Ma Yun quickly said what he had just said again.
Although his mouth was very dry, at this time, Ma Yun was not dissatisfied with it. Instead, he kept telling his proposal clearly.
During this process, the management staff at the scene subconsciously felt that the slightly depressing atmosphere at the scene was caused by the unsmooth progress of Ma Yun. After Bai Ningyuan's tossing, it had completely disappeared without a trace.
Seeing this, they couldn't help but look at each other secretly, and a little hope rose in their hearts.
"Okay, you know everything, you can end this meeting." After listening to Ma Yun's repetition, Bartz couldn't help but stand up and said coldly, the impatient emotions on his face were already overwhelming.
In her opinion, wasting so much time for such a little thing is simply unforgivable.
When she was talking, she couldn't help but want to leave.
As for Bai Ningyuan's opinion, she never took it seriously. In her information, this young and somewhat overly young person is just a personal background.
But before she could walk around, Bai Ningyuan's voice was already heard in her ears: "End the meeting? Why do we have to end it? I think, according to what Mr. Ma said, this is a major matter related to the development of the company, and it is necessary to conduct a vote. You can't draw conclusions so hasty!"
Butz turned his head suddenly to look at Bai Ningyuan. In her eyes, the lazy face looked extremely serious...
