Feng Yu said that has the matter, is actually not the excuse, but has the matter, he in finding the person inquired that Microsoft Board of Directors member, before this, he has not understood. ●⌒, 冯宇说有事,其实并不是借口,而是真的有事,他在找人打听微软的董事会成员,这之前,他并没有了解过。●⌒, In Microsoft this time board member/director, Feng Yu has the impression only, will be future Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer, one will not be a founder, the person who also has not disbursed money to invest, has attained very high stock unexpectedly! 微软此时的董事中,冯宇唯一有印象的,就是未来的微软ceo史蒂夫?鲍尔默,一个不是创始人,也没有出钱投资的人,竟然拿到了很高的股份！ Initially Microsoft in 1986 ipo time, Bill Gates had 49% stocks, Paul Alan had 35%, Steve Ballmer 8%, other workpoints 8%. Naturally, these fingers is the voting stocks. 当初微软1986年ipo的时候,比尔盖茨持有49的股份,保罗艾伦持有35,史蒂夫?鲍尔默8,其他员工分8。当然,这些指的都是投票股。 Paul Allen in leaving Microsoft that days, has invested many Corporation, but drearily ends, last year, cable TV Corporation that he invested, because refused his increasing to hold the request, he indignant, but sold out the stock completely, finally after selling out, this Corporation market value rose sharply 50%. 保罗?艾伦在离开微软的那段日子,投资了很多公司,但都是惨淡收场,就在去年,他投资的有线电视公司,因为拒绝了他的增持要求,他愤而将股份全部卖掉,结果卖掉后,该公司的市值大涨50。 Paul Allen also becomes the stupidest investor by many people. Feng Yu does not favor to Paul Alan specially, possibly once Paul Allen technically and in the idea was very good, but his sincerity was not a qualified superintendent, but also liked own strength kissing is, did not hate to release authority. 保罗?艾伦也被很多人成为最愚蠢的投资者。冯宇对保罗艾伦也不是特别看好,可能曾经保罗?艾伦在技术上和想法上很牛,但他真心不是一个合格的管理者,还喜欢亲力亲为,不舍得放权。 Because of the matter of stock, Paul Allen with Bill? Gates has quarrelled more than once. Bill? Gates's meaning, Paul Alan, because invests other business, needs to sell the Microsoft stock, will make them reduce in the Microsoft right to speak, might as well sell to Bill directly? Gates, but Paul Allen thinks that he had sacrificed one time, cannot suffer a loss again. Regarding Bill? Gates gives Steve Ballmer that many stocks, Paul Allen also has the veiled criticism. 因为股份的事情,保罗?艾伦跟比尔?盖茨都争吵过不止一次。比尔?盖茨的意思,保罗艾伦因为投资其他生意,需要出售微软的股份,会让他们在微软的话语权降低,不如直接卖给比尔?盖茨,而保罗?艾伦则认为他已经牺牲过一次了,不能再吃亏。对于比尔?盖茨给予史蒂夫?鲍尔默那么多的股份,保罗?艾伦也颇有微词。 Steve Ballmer, now is only Microsoft vice president. Several other board member/director, are one invests Corporation Chairman except for one, surplus is the Microsoft management, including CFO, but those who make Feng Yu accidental is, the Microsoft Board of Directors member, actually has eight. 史蒂夫?鲍尔默,现在就只是微软的副总裁而已。剩余的几位董事,除了一位是一家投资公司的董事长,剩余的都是微软的高管,包括首席财务官等,而让冯宇意外的是,微软的董事会成员,竟然只有八名。 It seems like Bill? Gates's authority control is very strong, even number board member/director, then votes time, has decided on the according to stock, said that Feng Yu this 2% voting stocks, does not have any right to speak. 看来比尔?盖茨的权力掌控很强啊,偶数董事,那么投票的时候,就以股份来决定了,这么说,冯宇这2的投票股,也没什么话语权。 Actually historically, in Bill? Gates retires, Microsoft board member/director increases is ten people, crossed for eight years, Microsoft board member/director increases is 11 people, but at that time, Bill? Gates was only ordinary board member/director, even the ownership percentage, early is not first. 其实历史上,在比尔?盖茨退休的时候,微软的董事才增加为十人,过了八年,微软的董事才增加为11人,而那时候,比尔?盖茨只是一名普通的董事了,甚至持股比例,早已经不是第一。 Feng Yu looked, the person who in this he should win over is Steve Ballmer, because Steve Ballmer receives the trust of Bill Gates very much, several years later also will become the Microsoft president and CEO, especially his relations with the Paul Allen will be very bad. 冯宇看了看,这里面他应该拉拢的人就是史蒂夫?鲍尔默,因为史蒂夫?鲍尔默很受比尔盖茨的信任,过几年也会成为微软的总裁、ceo,尤其他跟保罗?艾伦的关系还很糟糕。 If can dupe/sway Steve Ballmer make a mistake in some decision-makings in the future, for example Microsoft does not involve hardware, the opportunity that then Lenovo rises increased! 如果能忽悠史蒂夫?鲍尔默将来在一些决策上失误,比如微软绝不涉及硬件,那么连想崛起的机会就大增了！ ...... …… A few days later, the Microsoft Board of Directors regular meeting convenes, board member/director surprise looks at such as Feng Yu of this conference room. Who this youngster is, looks at the face, probably is the Oriental, does he come in? 几天后,微软的董事会例会召开,董事们都诧异的看着进如这间会议室的冯宇。这个年轻人是谁,看着面孔,好像是东方人,他是怎么进来的？ Paul Allen shot a look at Feng Yu one, cold snort|hum. Steve Ballmer has a relish looks at Feng Yu, is this that new board member/director that Bill said? 保罗?艾伦瞥了冯宇一眼,冷哼一声。史蒂夫?鲍尔默则饶有兴致的看着冯宇,这就是比尔说的那位新董事吗？ Other board member/director, do not know that this matter, they do not know, today starting from, Board of Directors wants many member, is a young member. 其他董事,根本不知道这件事,他们根本就不知道,今天开始,董事会就要多一位成员了,还是一位如此年轻的成员。 They noticed that Chairman has not spoken to scold, but also is nodding to this youngster, that explained that this person with Chairman is the understanding. Looks at the Paul Allen appearance, as if he also knows this youngster. 只是他们看到董事长并没有出言呵斥,还对着这个年轻人点头,那就说明,这个人跟董事长是认识的。看保罗?艾伦的样子,似乎他也认识这个年轻人。 Who as for this person is, does, they are confused. 至于这个人到底是谁,干什么的,他们都是一头雾水。 „Today's Board of Directors, the matter must announce. Feng from East, is that continuously the mysterious rich and powerful people who purchases us to circulate the stock.” “今天的董事会,有一项事情要宣布。来自东方的冯,就是那位一直在收购我们流通股的神秘富豪。” These board member/director reveal surprised expression, Feng Yu nods the head to everybody slightly, simply has not actually stood. Other people naturally have not cared, after all the Feng Yu net worth, must above them. 那些董事都露出惊讶的眼神,冯宇冲着大家微微颔首,却根本没有站起来。其他人自然也都没在意,毕竟冯宇的身家,要在他们之上。 But Paul Allen actually is not feeling well, thought that the Feng Yu insufficient politeness, has not actually thought that he is not usually seeing other board member/director. 可是保罗?艾伦却很不爽,觉得冯宇不够礼貌,却没想过,他平时也不怎么正眼看其他董事的。 „I have exchanged some stocks with Paul and Feng respectively, is about 1%, in other words, Feng has 2% voting stocks, therefore, I nominate Feng to enter Board of Directors.” “我跟保罗与冯各交换了一些股票,约为1,也就是说,冯有2的投票股,所以,我提名冯进入董事会。” Bill Gates is a major stockholder, he has the right to nominate Feng Yu to enter Board of Directors. 比尔盖茨是大股东,他有权提名冯宇进入董事会。 Many people have the erroneous zone, thinks the Board of Directors member, certainly is the shareholder, but is not this. Board of Directors is the shareholder meeting elects, naturally, the shareholder will nominate himself generally, but many right and wrong shareholder board member/director, just are also very rare in China. 很多人有误区,认为董事会成员,一定是股东,但并不是这样。董事会是股东会选举产生的,当然,一般股东都会提名自己,但也有很多是非股东董事,只不过在华夏很少见而已。 But generally can enter Board of Directors, generally will have the stockholder's rights drive, finally can turn into the shareholder, even if only a young shareholder. 而一般能进入董事会,一般都会有股权激励,最终都能变成股东,哪怕只是一个小股东。 Therefore Bill? Gates does not nominate, Feng Yu can also nominate, but Bill? Gates did not agree, then Feng Yu absolutely is unable to be elected, Bill? Gates at this time regarding the Microsoft control strength, is greatly strengthened. 所以比尔?盖茨不提名,冯宇也可以自己提名,但比尔?盖茨不同意,那么冯宇就绝对无法当选,比尔?盖茨此时对于微软的掌控力,还是极强的。 Actually Bill? Gates adds on Paul Allen or Steve Ballmer, can decide that Feng Yu enters Board of Directors, therefore he today this is actually not the proposition, is informs everybody, others did not agree that is not easy-to-use! 其实比尔?盖茨加上保罗?艾伦或者史蒂夫?鲍尔默,就能决定冯宇进入董事会,所以他今天这其实不是提议,就是通知一下大家,别人不同意也不好使！ Board of Directors is the highest management agency that the shareholder chooses, can elect, naturally can also recall. Microsoft board member/director, has to change players, um, does everything oppose Bill? The person of Gates resolution, was replaced. 董事会是股东选出来的最高管理机构,能选,自然也就能罢免。微软的董事,也不是没换过人,嗯,凡是反对比尔?盖茨决议的人,都被换掉了。 Bill? Gates in Microsoft Corporation, is the first major stockholder, Chairman, president and CEO, in many small Corporation, the president with CEO is a person, or simply only sets up one, but in many big Corporation, because the administration is quite complex, therefore Chairman will appoint them, shares management together, and keeps in balance mutually. 比尔?盖茨在微软公司中,可是第一大股东、董事长、总裁兼ceo,在许多小公司,总裁跟ceo是一个人,或者干脆就只设立一个,但许多大公司中,由于行政管理比较复杂,所以董事长会任命两人,来一起分担管理,并相互制衡。 But Steve Ballmer is vice president, its practical is living of president. 而史蒂夫?鲍尔默是副总裁,其实干的就是总裁的活。 Listens to Bill? Gates's words, other board member/director naturally are applauding, only then Paul Allen, as if has not heard these words to be the same, but also in low spirits coffee. 听完比尔?盖茨的话,其他董事自然都在鼓掌,只有保罗?艾伦,仿佛根本没听到这句话一样,还在闷头品着咖啡。 Everybody looks to Feng Yu, this can enter Board of Directors? Looks at this meaning, Bill? Gates supports, but Paul Allen does not support, these two do need clashes of opinion? 大家都看向冯宇,这位要进入董事会？看这意思,比尔?盖茨是非常支持的,而保罗?艾伦则不支持,这二位又要闹矛盾了吗？ „Was good, welcome arrived here, below I proposed that appoints President Feng Wei Microsoft Asia-Pacific region vice, is mainly responsible for the service in China aspect.” “好了,欢迎就到这里吧,下面我提议,任命冯为微软亚太地区副总裁,主要负责华夏方面的业务。” Everybody this time understood, no wonder is an Oriental, it seems like should be the China person, was Corporation this must enter the China market on a large scale? 大家这时候明白了,难怪是一个东方人,看来应该就是华夏人了,公司这是要大举进军华夏市场了吗？ Steve Ballmer asked at this time: „Be responsible for which services of China aspect?” 史蒂夫?鲍尔默这时候问道:“负责华夏方面的哪些业务？” Doesn't wait for Bill? Gates opens the mouth, Feng Yu has saying of smiling: „Completely. China all services, I decide. Corporation any other decision-makings, I do not meddle.” 不等比尔?盖茨开口,冯宇有笑眯眯的说道:“全部。华夏的所有业务,我说了算。公司的其他任何决策,我不插手。” Steve Ballmer frowned, the China that important market, gives such youngster, was some are too careless? Although Feng is a major stockholder, not necessarily is the good policy-maker. 史蒂夫?鲍尔默皱起眉头,华夏那么重要的市场,交给这么一位年轻人,是不是有些太草率了？虽然冯是大股东,可不一定是好的决策者啊。 Why Bill agreed that does this China person, have very high status in China? 比尔为什么就同意了呢,难道这个华夏人,在华夏有着很高的地位？ Bill? Gates also adds: „Feng can help Microsoft occupy the China market thoroughly, this everybody can feel relieved. What other propositions today does everybody have? If no, today's Board of Directors, finished.” 比尔?盖茨也补充道:“冯能帮助微软彻底占据华夏市场,这点大家可以放心。今天大家还有什么其他提议吗？没有的话,今天的董事会,就结束了吧。” This time Board of Directors, convenes for Feng Yu radically. 这次的董事会,根本就是为了冯宇召开的。 Steve Ballmer discovered that Feng Yu several times show the smiling face to him, making him somewhat bewildered......( To be continued.) 史蒂夫?鲍尔默发现,冯宇好几次对他露出笑脸,让他有些莫名其妙……(未完待续。)
