Chapter 820: winner takes all

   "President Immelt can rest assured that the ICQ board of directors will support your decision. The acquisition of Bronfman Group will be the most important decision of ICQ this year!

   I will definitely be there for your inauguration as the President of General Electric! "

   On the car to Austin, Song Yang received a call from Immelt, who was about to hold ICQ's first board meeting after the new year.

  Although Song Yang did not attend the ICQ board meeting and is no longer ICQ's largest shareholder, Immelt still needs to consider Song Yang's attitude.

  The CEO of ICQ, various managements, and people from America Telecom, most of them are from Song Yang.

  General Electric, even if it has obtained the status of ICQ's major shareholder, but it is difficult to block the sky in ICQ's board of directors. As long as Song Yang wants to, it can join hands with Comcast Group, another major shareholder of ICQ, to overturn Immelt's decision!

   So even though Immelt is taking over ICQ's board of directors and management, if he wants to pass a major resolution, he still needs to consult Song Yang's opinion, even if he takes a routine.

  Even after Immelt called, Brian Roberts of Comcast had already called Song Yang and asked Song Yang implicitly if he had any thoughts on Immelt's proposal...

  Song Yang naturally understood what Brian Roberts meant. Although the ICQ merger made a lot of money, Comcast Group was not the most profitable one.

Brian Roberts and Comcast Group have always been a little worried about not being able to get the position of the major shareholder of ICQ. It is difficult for the Comcast Group alone to compete with General Electric, so Brian Roberts wants to pull Song Yang.

   But Song Yang turned a blind eye to Brian Roberts' suggestion, and directly stated that he would support Immelt's decision and not support a civil war in ICQ!

After hanging up the phone, Song Yang shook his head. He didn't know what Brian Roberts was doing. Immelt was standing in front of him as cannon fodder. When the sky fell, Immelt was supporting him. Ryan Roberts has to make a fuss.

Song Yang went to Austin today to attend Adrian's inauguration. There was no accident. Among the candidates for governor in Texas this time, Adrian had the most campaign funds, reaching the highest level of any previous German governor. The top candidate in Texas, when fundraisers headed by the Bruno family announced that they would provide campaign funds for Adrian at any cost, most of the funders behind several other gubernatorial candidates died.

  Enron, Koch Brothers and other large petroleum, chemical, military and other groups in Houston and Texas finally chose Adrian.

In addition, Tom DeLay, the party whip within the Elephant Party, and the next Elephant Party candidate for the leadership election, Little Cowboy, and others, all endorsed Adrian. Tom DeLay personally flew to Texas, After canvassing for Adrian, this year's governor battle in Texas did not cause too many waves, and Adrian was elected with a crushing trend.

Adrian's main competitor is Perry, who serves as the lieutenant governor of Texas, and is also a veteran member of the elephant party. This time, he lost a bit miserably. He was overwhelmed by Adrian. Member of the Elephant Party, this time he realized what it means to be raised by a stepmother, and he has no gaming experience at all.

Adrian, who has won a great victory, is about to be held in the square at the north gate of Austin State Municipal. Song Yang naturally wants to attend the ceremony to express his congratulations to Adrian. At that moment, the Bruno family will definitely talk to Ai Dian. Derian stood together, on the other hand, also declared to Texas and the outside world that this wave, the Bruno family is the winner!

   "That guy, he's a coward, he doesn't agree to compete with Immelt for the ICQ board!"

  Comcast Group headquarters, after calling Song Yang, facing Song Yang's "non-cooperation" and hopeless to **** the board of directors, Brian Roberts could only "humiliately" agree to support Immelt's resolution.

   Hearing the annoyed words of Brian Roberts, his father, who is also the current president of Comcast Sr. Ralph Roberts, looked relaxed instead.

   "Brian," Old Ralph reminded his most satisfied successor, "Don't despise any opponent, and never make a decision lightly until the last minute!"

Old Ralph knew what Brian Roberts was regretting and failed to take control of ICQ. Even if Comcast Group had cooperated with ICQ, they actually caught the Internet hitchhiker and used Comcast TV. In exchange for a huge amount of cash and ICQ's equity, the stock price of Comcast Group hit a record high. Old Ralph believed that Comcast had already made a profit from the big M&A transaction, but Brian Roberts was still Uneasy.

Brian Roberts looked at his father, "We have a chance, as long as that guy Bruno Song is on our side, we can reorganize the ICQ board, but that guy is actually afraid of Immelt and General Electric. Don't dare to resist!"

  Looking at the indignant Brian Roberts, old Ralph shook his head. He was really used to seeing big winds and waves, and he was also used to seeing so-called geniuses being thrown to death.

"I haven't really met Song, but I have seen news about Song from some media reports, but I know that Song is by no means the kind of person you said, he is a real little fox, even if he comes from Houston's red-necked turf.

He gave up his position as a major shareholder of ICQ, and he is still cashing out, Brian, maybe it's not a bad thing to prepare early. After the tide goes out, you will know who is swimming in the fruit. I agree with your ideas, but boy, In this world, only the one who survives to the end may be the winner!

   You can deal with that guy Bruno Song more, I think he will be an interesting guy, next year, you should also take over the Comcast Group! "

  Old Ralph tidied up his bow tie, patted Brian Roberts on the shoulder, and left Brian Roberts brooding.

Thinking of what Old Ralph said, and what Song Yang had done before, Brian Roberts frowned, and he remembered a ridiculous idea, if Song Yang really didn't want to cheat him, he even saved Kangka With the death of the Sturt Group, Brian Roberts felt his scalp tingling and didn't dare to think about it any longer.

   "Prince Group, we must win, this is a battle to unify America's telephone market, WorldCom has no reason to back down, and it can't be back!"

At WorldCom headquarters, Bernard Ebbs is also holding a mobilization meeting. WorldCom's various executives, as well as Bernard's most trusted WorldCom financial director, Scott, have high hopes by Bernard as a The next head of WorldCom, Sickey Moore and others who will take his place in the future, are all listed.

As always, in the eyes of those who were handed out relief food by Bernard Ebbes, Bernard, a kind-hearted man, was murderous at this moment, and no voices questioning him should appear. All he wanted was WorldCom's board of directors and various parties. Executive Lu, do as he asks, not tell him what the difficulty is.

The    emperor didn't want to know what the consequences of his orders would be. He just wanted people to fulfill his orders. Bernard Ebes had the same mentality!
