Chapter 1852 Interesting family

Xiao Qi is not used to eating Western breakfast. It would be better to have a bowl of mutton soup and two oil cakes.

But when he was out, he didn't pay so much attention. He picked up the toast, mixed some ingredients to make a sandwich, and ate it slowly.

Ellison is not a stickler for rules, so he started talking non-stop at the dinner table.

"Looking at the half-dead state of the U.S. stock market now, it should be about to plummet. The greedy guys on Wall Street should finally swallow the bitter wine they brewed! Although our Oracle is not too involved, I think it is still

It’s not enough to fight the risks. You’ll have a hard time in the future!”

Saying this, Ellison felt quite gloating about his misfortune.

Xiao Qi also knew that Ellison was qualified to gloat so much during the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression.

In a financial crisis, there must be companies that suffer heavy losses, and there must be companies that can survive independently.

There are so many companies that have suffered heavy losses and don't need to be concerned about, but the companies that have been able to survive alone are worth mentioning.

During the global financial crisis that started this year and lasted until 2013, among the technology-stock listed companies in the hardest-hit areas, four companies suffered the least losses and recovered fastest.

They are Google, IBM, Oracle and Amazon.

Google survived within two years because of their strong network coverage capabilities, their ability to catch up with the explosion of the Internet era, and the Android system sweeping the world.

Amazon is somewhat similar to Google. It also rode on the spring breeze of the economic downturn. As people cut back on their clothes and diet, they also began to shop online. This happened to make Amazon extremely prosperous, so it quickly rebounded after plummeting.

Came here and became the world's leading b2c website.

Well, if there was no Xiaoyao Mall in this life, Amazon would definitely be number one in the world, but now that there is Xiaoyao Mall, the result may not be the same.

IBM and Oracle are very similar. They are aimed at the internal networks of super large companies and are responsible for providing the highest quality software services and service solutions to the world's top 500 companies - of course, no matter which country they are in, the highest quality things

Naturally the most expensive.

Moreover, they and these large companies do not just finish the work this year and then stop doing it next year, but a long-term and stable service system. Therefore, they usually sign contracts with large group companies such as banks, finance, insurance, petroleum, etc., and they are of huge value.

With long-term contracts, the impact of this financial crisis on them is therefore minimal.

Because although big companies have to lay off employees and get through the difficulties, what you need is to work hard to get through the difficulties. IBM and Oracle provide services that allow you to work better. You can put the cart before the horse and not do it.

Are these critical software and services?

Therefore, the stock prices of IBM and Oracle have not even dropped much, and they are much better than Google and Amazon. They have come all the way smoothly, and I don’t know how many people are envious of them.

"Don't just stand and talk without your back hurting." Xiao Qi said with a smile: "If those big technology companies plummet, who will you sell your services and software technology to? There will be no new profit points. How can you make a fortune?

"

"So, what do you think about handing over the office software and service solutions of Fairy Company's companies to Oracle?" Ellison said slowly, "I took a look at the enterprise software service providers you currently have.

, it’s just like starting a company after learning something from our Oracle. In terms of timeliness, convenience and integration, as well as the management and storage of large databases, etc., they are completely inadequate.

Especially your three companies, Xiaoyao Express, Xiaoyao Logistics and Xiaoyao Mall. The current coordination ability with each other is too poor! If you leave it to Oracle to tailor-make enterprise business software and service solutions, I guarantee that not only the efficiency will be improved by 30%

Above, and the cost can be saved by more than 20%, the company's development will be even faster!"

Xiao Qi was shocked for a while: "No, Larry. You have dominated such a big business as the App Store and the Fairy Company website, and now you have extended your clutches to my other industries? I now pay you more than 30 million every year.

U.S. dollars, how much more do you want to earn from me?"

"I can help you save and earn more than 200 million US dollars every year, and I can collect this money with peace of mind." Ellison shrugged and said, "And now your carefree system, including the microblogs of your girlfriends.

Blog, WeChat company, Xiaoniao.com, I think we can try to cooperate."

"You were very accurate in gathering my information!" Xiao Qi shook his head and smiled, "Larry, why are you so kind and invited me to your home? It turns out that you want to attract business from me to expand your business.

A source of wealth."

"Didn't you remind me just now that we are looking for ways to increase profits?" Ellison chuckled. "Now Oracle has not made a big splash in the Chinese market. But as long as I do Fairy Company's business, others will see Oracle.

With my extraordinary capabilities in software and service solutions, wouldn’t there be more and more Chinese companies coming to me? With the Chinese market, why should I be afraid of the subprime mortgage crisis?”

"you are great!"

Xiao Qi unconsciously gave him a thumbs up, "You are clearly using the Fairy Company as a stepping stone, so what benefits do I have? Let's talk about it first, friendship is friendship, business is business, you don't have enough benefits, I don't

I will cooperate with you after I agree. After all, there are many companies like Oracle in the world, and even China is barely enough."

"We are friends, so we can talk about the price." Ellison laughed, "How about I give you a 30% discount based on the standards for large customers?"

"30% off is too high, 50% off at most." Xiao Qi said without giving in at all.

"What!?" Ellison exclaimed, "Are you kidding me? 50% off? With such a large service scale, I will lose at least 20 to 30 million US dollars every year with a 50% discount!"

"Compared to the entire Chinese market, a loss of twenty to thirty million US dollars is nothing." Xiao Qi waved his hand, "Besides, you now need Fairy Company to support Oracle's new performance. I didn't ask you for endorsement fees.

It’s all good!”

"you……"

Ellison and Xiao Qi stared at each other for a while, then put down their food and stood up: "Just wait, I'll go discuss it with someone!"

With that said, he left Xiao Qi alone here and hurriedly ran into the house.

Although Ellison is the founder of Oracle, it is still impossible for him to act alone when it comes to major matters. This is completely different from Gang Leaders Qiao, Li Jianxi and Xiao Qi.

Not long after Ellison left, the door over there opened again, and a man in his twenties wearing a T-shirt and jeans walked out and came to Xiao Qi with a smile.

"Let me meet you, Mr. Xiao, I am David Ellison, and the old man who came in just now is my father." He stretched out his hand.

Xiao Qi stood up, shook hands with him and sat down, "I can see that you two look alike."

David sat on his father's chair and unceremoniously picked up a piece of buttered bread and ate it, "Mr. Xiao, I heard in California that you are a Silicon Valley entrepreneurial wizard. But is your entrepreneurial enthusiasm only limited to

What about the Internet technology industry? There are still many industries in the United States that are gold mines waiting to be mined!"

Young people in the United States are like this. They don’t have any airs, let alone pretend to be mature business people.

Xiao Qi has seen many young people like this in the United States, and he doesn't have any objection at all. Only those who are pretentious are annoying.

No matter how much Xiao Qi disliked contact with people in his previous life, he learned a lot of knowledge from the online world.

From this, he also knew which brother-sister combination was known as "Hollywood's biggest loser."

These two people are Megan, whom Xiao Qi met just now, and now David. They have been interested in movies since they were young. When it comes to movie investment, they will offer tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars without blinking an eye.

check!

But the two brothers and sisters have completely different attitudes towards movies.

Megan likes artistic movies most. As long as they are cool, interesting and meaningful, she likes them, and she will write a check generously.

As a result, in the next few years, Megan seems to have invested in films that have received more than 30 Oscar nominations in total, making her a complete friend of art films!

The famous Hong Kong sunglasses director spent several years filming "The Grandmaster" thanks to her investment. No other investor would have had the patience to wait for him for so many years.

Meghan even went to Guangdong, China, where the movie was shot, and stayed with Sunglasses King and Wei Zai for a month. From this, you can see how much of a literary and youthful aura this woman has!

David likes to invest in commercial films with large investments, such as "Transformers", "Iron Man", "Mission: Impossible", "Star Trek"... and many other well-known films, all of which he has produced on a large scale.

Participated in investments and obtained huge profits.

Taylor may like Megan, but Xiao Qi is only willing to approve David's investment.

And Xiao Qi has not forgotten what prompted David to invest so freely.

During the financial crisis, Paramount, which was already on the verge of collapse, was forced to pay $450 million in debt by Deutsche Bank, which also suffered heavy losses. At this time, only David stepped forward to help them and helped them advance the payment.

With a loan, he obtained a contract from Paramount - within ten years, David Ellison was eligible to participate in the investment of any film produced by Paramount, and was the top priority investor!

So it can be understood why Paramount cooperates with him for so many well-known series of fat characters, allowing David to share a large amount of profits. This is simply something that can't be helped. (To be continued, please search
