"How many calls were there yesterday? Which companies did they call? Which of them were not called by the Chairman or CEO? "Feng Yu leaned back in his chair and sipped his coffee.
"A total of 62 calls. I had recorded them and had prepared a table according to the company's size, position, etc. It is in your computer." Ralph reported.
Feng Yu clicked on the form. At this time, Microsoft Excel still does not have many functions, but it was more advanced than other software. At least, Feng Yu could understand all the functions of Excel. But some of the functions that were useful in his previous life were not developed yet.
But Feng Yu told Liu Chuanzhi about those functions and asked him to get someone to add those functions based on Microsoft Office. Feng Yu does not know how to do it, but he knows what he should do.
If this was successful, Feng Yu would be able to snatch the market share of Microsoft Office. Even if Feng Yu could only occupy the Hua Xia market and slowly expand to other countries, it would still be a cash cow in the future. In Feng Yu's previous life, Microsoft Office was the second most profitable software. At its peak, Microsoft Office could bring in a few billion USD annually!
Of course, Feng Yu will not allow Lenovo to infringe on the patents. He can buy it. Feng Yu is a director of Microsoft, and he should be able to pay a high price to buy the patents for the basic page graphics. Or other software companies might have similar patents, and Feng Yu does not need to buy Microsoft's patents.
The first company's name surprised Feng Yu. Dai Er. This company's CEO had called Feng Yu personally. Seems like he is very interested in the Hua Xia market.
Below the list was a list of big companies, and every one of them was famous. Feng Yu was unfamiliar with the companies at the end of the list. In his previous life, these companies might have been acquired before they could develop their businesses.
"Where are the information on Seattle's internet and software companies?" Feng Yu closed the table and asked.
"Boss, are you not going to return those people's calls?" Ralph asked in shock.
"Why should I return their calls? If they are anxious, they will continue to call me. If they're not anxious, then why should I be? "Feng Yu retorted.
Ralph was confused by Feng Yu. "But Boss, those big companies are Microsoft's partners."
"Ralph, there's one thing you need to know. I hired you, not Microsoft. You are working here because I am a director of Microsoft. If I am no longer Microsoft's director, will you submit your resume to Microsoft or leave with me? "Feng Yu looks at Ralph. He wants Ralph to understand this clearly.
Ralph was stunned. He had accepted Feng Yu's invitation because Feng Yu was Microsoft's director. But now, it seems that he had misunderstood Feng Yu. He was only Feng Yu's secretary, and he had a position in Microsoft.
Ralph thought for a while. If he leaves Feng Yu, he will never be able to enter Microsoft's management. But if he follows Feng Yu, based on his understanding of Feng Yu, as long as he can satisfy Feng Yu, he will not be mistreated.
"Boss, I will leave with you." Ralph bowed.
Feng Yu was satisfied. "To be a good secretary, you must know what to say. I can order you to do things because I am paying you. But you cannot decide what I want you to do. Do you understand? "
"Yes, Boss. The information is in the folder on the table, and I have sorted it out. "Ralph nodded. Although Feng Yu was younger than him, he could never catch up with Feng Yu's achievements in his lifetime.
Feng Yu opened the folder and read it one by one. Although Feng Yu knew English, he was still confused about some technical terms. Feng Yu was also confused about some company names.
But these companies were not marked by Ralph. That means they were not big companies and did not have any famous products. The risk was high and the returns were low.
Feng Yu looked at the names of these companies and tried to find any familiar ones. As long as they could find a company that had not been registered for long and was still in its infancy, it would be a very cost-effective business whether it was investing in the company or poaching talents from the company.
Ring … ring …
Feng Yu looked at his phone and signaled Ralph to answer.
"Hello, this is Microsoft's Director Feng's office."
"Mr. Ralph? I am Saburo Hiratani from Toshiba. I had called Mr. Feng earlier. Why did he not call me back? "Saburo Hiratani's anxious voice came through the phone.
Ralph saw Feng Yu had no intention to answer the call and immediately made his decision. "Saburo Hiratani, I had told you yesterday that my boss will call you back when he is free. If there is nothing else, please do not disturb me! "
Bang! The phone was hung up.
Saburo Hiratani was dumbfounded when he heard the busy tone on the phone. How did this happen? My phone was hung up by a Microsoft Director's secretary?! This was intolerable! This was simply intolerable!
Saburo Hiratani immediately went to report to the President. There must be something wrong!
Feng Yu did not even lift his head and said. "Just ignore these small fries in the future."
"Yes, Boss."
If Saburo Hiratani knew Feng Yu had called him a small fries, he might be furious! He was also one of Toshiba's shareholders and top executives. Toshiba was also a world-class company. How dare someone look down on him?!
Ralph had some understanding of Feng Yu. Firstly, Feng Yu does not like Japanese companies. Maybe it was because he was from Hua Xia. Feng Yu might look friendly on the surface, but he was very arrogant. He looked down on those big companies' top executives.
Ralph also understood this point. Those so-called top executives of big companies were not as rich as their bosses. If Feng Yu saw those who were not as successful as him jumping up and down in front of him, he would be pissed, especially those arrogant Japanese!
Another important point was that Feng Yu does not like to manage. Even Microsoft's documents were handled by Ralph, and Feng Yu made the final decision. This way, Feng Yu had more authority in the company. Although it might be tough, those who worked for Feng Yu were not treated badly.
As long as they listened to Feng Yu and completed his tasks, they will get lots of benefits. Feng Yu did not give them ordinary tips. When he was happy, he was very generous!
The second call came. When Ralph heard the caller's name, he immediately knew that this was a small fries. Stop it!
Feng Yu was still in front of his PC, looking at the names of the companies. Suddenly, he noticed a familiar company. Amazon!
This company was set up last year? Is it because they are short of money now? Feng Yu knew that he would find a surprise!
