Chapter 268 Strengthening the bloodline of the Smith family
For companies such as PayPal, or Click and Buy, and MoneyGram, Abel is bound to win.
According to Abel's vision, he would at least get two of these companies.
The Pacific Mall envisioned by Abel, which is the Wal-Mart/Goudong, Amazon model, must have its own online fast payment channel.
Amazon in parallel time and space bought PayPal. At this time, PayPal did not have the highest market share, but it had the best technology.
Abel's idea is to buy PayPal and one or two other online fast payment companies.
Merging these companies will directly create a giant online payment system.
Take advantage of this period when Nasdaq has not yet begun to recover, and make big gains in the market as soon as possible.
When Pacific Mall comes out in the future, the seamless connection will be made directly.
At that time, Abel will announce its own online fast payment, which can be used both online and offline.
As long as Pacific Mall can be developed, Abel's Zhixbao will also be established.
What's more, he also has the identity of the boss of Google.
In the future, you can also ask Google not to open its own payment system and let Google also use this payment system.
Even Apple and Abel can find ways to incorporate it into this system in advance.
Even if you can't keep it to yourself, you can still share it.
Wait until the mobile Internet era arrives.
It’s not a bad idea or a possibility. Let’s try to promote mobile payment in the United States.
It's just that promoting mobile payment in the United States will be dozens of times more difficult than in China.
The situation in the United States is very special. Later China’s convenient and fast QR code mobile payment is not suitable for the national conditions here.
First of all, the mobile network signal infrastructure in the United States is scumbag compared to China.
China has basically achieved a certain signal guarantee wherever there are people.
Not to mention 5G, at least the 4G signal coverage is scary.
In the United States, in addition to big cities, many small towns have reached the 5G era, and many times they can only make phone calls without network signals.
Otherwise, do the passengers in the London or New York subway really prefer reading to playing with their mobile phones?
That's not necessarily the case.
The real situation is that there is basically no mobile phone network signal above 3g in their subway.
If you don’t read books and play with your mobile phone, you can only play stand-alone games and make phone calls.
Trivia - The London Underground will not initially have 4G signals until 2021.
Hot knowledge - New York subway will not have 3G signal even in 2020
With such outrageous mobile network signals, how can mobile payments be implemented quickly?
What's more, before the emergence of technology sufficient to support mobile payments.
European and American countries have already had very convenient credit card systems.
Although there is no mobile payment like that, you only need a mobile phone to travel all over the world.
But it's also very convenient.
More importantly, the U.S. credit card system is what the U.S. banking industry calls super fat.
The emergence of mobile payment is to compete with these behemoths.
With the power of Wall Street, how could the mere Internet giants be able to rob it?
Network coverage is unreliable, coupled with the need to rob the "fat" of overly powerful vested interests.
Even at their strongest, Apple and Google were just two fatter dogs in the eyes of Wall Street.
If you disobey, put your fist down and you will be obedient.
This is the reason why mobile payment by scanning QR codes cannot be promoted in the United States.
Even Abel, as one of the vested interests of Wall Street.
By that time, it is estimated that it will also be one of the blockers of mobile payments in the United States.
This is determined by where your butt sits.
California, San Jose.
The three co-founders of PayPal finally agreed to Abel's acquisition intention.
If you agree, you can immediately achieve financial freedom.
Of the US$300 million, each person can receive US$100 million before tax.
If we don't agree, PayPal, which is already having a very difficult time, may soon be in a precarious situation.
In this case, smart people know how to choose.
There is no doubt that all three of them are smart people.
Abel also explicitly threatened them that if they did not accept the acquisition, they would withdraw their shares and acquire other companies to compete with PayPal.
The contract was finalized that day because Abel even brought his lawyer.
This made the three co-founders know more and more that this super tycoon was definitely prepared.
Who would bring lawyers, accountants and actuaries with them when inspecting an investment company?
This is what comes with a purpose.
The contract was signed in the evening. The three co-founders also received their respective funds in their accounts half an hour later.
At this point, PayPal became Abel's privately owned company.
Among the three co-founders, Peter Thiel and Max Lavchin, two technical guys, chose to stay and continue working.
Because the annual salary offered to them by Abel made them all excited, as they already had 100 million US dollars in their account before tax.
PayPal now also needs these two technical experts to take the lead in development.
As for Elon Musk, this guy originally wanted to leave and try to start a business again.
But although Abel didn’t like many of Musk’s practices in later generations.
But Abel still appreciates Elon Musk's marketing and trouble-making abilities.
There is a high probability that Albert will not be able to put all his energy on the West Coast.
If Elon Musk is willing to work for him, Abel will be happy too.
If nothing else, if Abel wants to play a space exploration rocket company.
Elon Musk is definitely a good player, a master at charging ahead and creating topics and traffic.
Therefore, after the acquisition was completed, Abel retained Elon Musk.
The two of them discussed alone in a small conference room for more than an hour.
When Elon Musk comes out, this guy will already be the CEO of the "Future Oasis" company that has not yet been established.
With all this done, Abel returned to 349 Walsh Road, Atherton.
In the evening, Abel and Ikana sat on the sofa on the large 180-degree viewing balcony on the second floor.
Downstairs is Paris, a pitiful designer and part-time worker who is rushing to work on a manuscript.
Paris looked up and saw the two people kissing on the second floor.
Damn it, I really want to turn into Ikana!
But one of Hilton's heirs also knows that his time has not yet come.
She had no choice but to grit her teeth, lower her head and continue working on the manuscript below, pretending to be working hard, and at the same time raised her ears to eavesdrop on the conversation between the two upstairs.
The two people on the balcony on the second floor separated after kissing, leaning against each other and looking at the beautiful scenery of Nanwan Beach in the distance.
With the naked eye, you can see the beautiful sunset along the horizon and the white sails returning to the harbor, and enjoy the endless Pacific coastline and the gentle Southern California sea breeze.
"Dear, do you really think so?"
He gently stroked Ikana's back in his arms and listened to her confused murmurs.
Abel raised the corners of his mouth, kissed her forehead, and said softly: "That's what I thought."
Ikana pouted, raised her face, her beautiful eyes were blank, but she still kissed her.
Under the golden sunset, the two formed a beautiful picture.
It started again.
Downstairs, Paris couldn't help but wonder, if she hadn't been here at this time.
These two people on the balcony will definitely have sex directly on it.
