Time came to May, after various temptations and threats finally failed. The U.S. Congress approved a national security investigation into Google, a move that instantly focused the world's attention on this Internet company that has suddenly emerged in recent years.
You must know that in addition to being the largest search engine website in the world, Google now also holds Twitter and YouTube. The launch of Google Maps is now in full swing.
The Android smartphone system in hand is currently one of the three major systems in the world, and because Pangu is only compatible with Honor phones, Apple has always only made its own independent system.
The Android smartphone system can be said to be the most widely used system in the world, because except for Honor and Apple, other smartphone brands use the Android system.
Therefore, the U.S. Congress suddenly launched an investigation into this Internet technology company that has become an industry giant on the grounds of national security. It is unacceptable for both the industry and outside the industry not to pay attention to this.
"The pressure is on our side." Little Jack rubbed his brow. Sitting opposite him were Amber Kennedy and Dean Spencer.
The three parties represent the current three major shareholders of Google and are also the three largest reliances on Google. As for Dai'er, although her identity is not simple, since she cut off from the Spencer family, her glamorous name is just a name.
Although she also has resources and connections in her hands, there is definitely no way to compare with these three. After all, some of Dai'er's resources and connections are poached by the Spencer family, and some are managed by herself.
No matter how powerful Dai'er is, the resources in her hands cannot be compared with those of these inherited plutocrats and big families. After all, you have only been developing for a few years, while others have been developing for hundreds of years.
Therefore, Dai'er's biggest identity now is actually the major shareholder of Google, but this identity is also currently under the greatest threat. Once the U.S. Congress concocts some groundless charges, her shares will most likely be forcibly confiscated. .
That's right, it's not forced sale, but forced confiscation. Because he wanted to force the sale, Dai'er had already resisted, and little Jack and others were not vegetarians either.
So if Morgan wants to control Google through Congress, the only way left is to force confiscation. And regarding this point, Morgan's side, or Locke's side, behaved very rogue, obviously hoping to get back all the anger they suffered from Spain through this method.
Faced with such a crisis, Dai'er, as the major shareholder, suddenly relaxed, but Little Jack and others who were originally unhurried suddenly became nervous.
Because even the worst result is to break Yang Dongxu's arm and it is impossible to kill Yang Dongxu, because his foundation is in China, and the assets, resources and connections in his hands can withstand this kind of situation. Loss is just uncomfortable.
But Little Jack and others are different. In addition to the money they have made from following Yang Dongxu over the years, the only cards they can use are the chip industry that is still under development, and now Google.
It can even be said that they only have Google as a playing card, even though they are a legacy chaebol and a legacy family. But because it is an inheritance, there are too many people sharing the benefits. In addition, traditional industries are being squeezed by other large chaebols.
Internet technology giants like Google are the only way for them to break out of the encirclement. This road not only helps them make money, but also is their hope for re-emergence. If this road is blocked, others, not to mention the California consortium, will definitely come back again. In the past, it was a situation of slow death and being cut into pieces with blunt knives.
So if Little Jack wanted Yang Dongxu to come up with some more chips at the beginning, he never thought that after Yang Dongxu stopped resisting, Little Jack would be the most anxious moment.
"What exactly does he mean?" Abel frowned.
The California Consortium needed to be revived, and his Boston consortium was also in trouble. Especially compared to the fact that the top executives of the California consortium where little Jack is located are basically from the same family, the situation in Boston is much more complicated because it is a consortium jointly established by several families.
If such a consortium develops well, it will definitely be good for you, good for me, and good for everyone. It can cover up many conflicts. Once the development is damaged, the outbreak of conflicts will be enough to give anyone a headache.
Since President Kennedy was assassinated, the Boston Consortium has been going downhill, and is now basically at the point of disintegration. If the only life-saving straw finally found at this time is gone, then this matter will be a big deal. Big deal.
Without the emergence of Google, the consortium could still barely maintain its internal conflicts. Now that Google has given everyone hope, and then hope breaks down again, it will definitely lead to the disintegration of the last remaining strength of the consortium.
"What he means is that in the face of the pressing pressure from the Morgan consortium, he has no good solution for the time being, so he decided to introduce shareholders like the military again to prepare for the popularization of Google Maps." Dean said.
Abel and Little Jack both frowned, and Dean actually looked a little solemn as well. Because the military bosses introduced to resist the attack of the Morgan consortium must be absolute bosses, otherwise they would not be able to resist Morgan.
Faced with such three major shareholders, who could have influenced some of Yang Dongxu's decisions, their influence on Google will undoubtedly fall to the second level.
Once this big boss comes in, they may not be able to reap the same benefits as if they contributed one part now. The more important point is that once such a big boss comes in, it will not necessarily be who Google listens to in the future.
Such a result is obviously not what the three families want to see, and in fact, it is also what Yang Dongxu is not happy to see. Because the three companies may lose control of Google by bringing in this big boss, the position of Yang Dongxu, the major shareholder, is also unstable.
But compared to Google being swallowed up by the Morgan consortium that is pressing every step of the way, it is undoubtedly a helpless choice to introduce a new boss to fight to the death. After all, one will burp immediately and the other will die slowly.
Yang Dongxu, who had no other choice, would definitely choose the second option. After all, what he lacks most now is development time. If this side can hold on long enough, there is no hope of a comeback in the future.
But he can wait for time. Little Jack and others obviously can't wait, because the longer time passes, the weaker their control over Google will be. After Yang Dongxu has the ability to make a comeback, he will definitely choose a more powerful partner, and they will definitely be relegated to the second level.
"There is no room for error on Google's part!" Abel said with a solemn expression.
Obviously, compared to Dean and Little Jack, who still has some wealth, he really doesn't have any room for detours.
