Chapter 1035 One mountain cannot tolerate two tigers

The San Jose Manor, where celebrities gathered and bustled with people, was the center of San Jose today. After many powerful people and congressmen left the venue early, the entire manor became even more noisy.

In the study room of San Jose Manor, it was a different scene. It couldn't be said to be tense, but the atmosphere couldn't be said to be relaxed either.

Facing Betes who had given him the ultimatum, Song Yang did not show any anger or dissatisfaction. This threat would have definitely been effective two years ago. Back when Song Yang started his career, it would have been like this

The threat is nothing short of catastrophic. Not to mention giant companies like Telephone and Telegraph Group, even Netscape, Apple, Silicon Valley Venture Capital, etc. can make Song Yang fall short.

But now, if Bates said this, it would be equivalent to farting, but Song Yang basically had no disturbance in his heart...

Today's Telephone and Telegraph Group is no longer in its heyday, the state that kept the gentlemen on Capitol Hill awake at night. America Telecom is no longer in the period when it faced various telecommunications giants and had to secretly set up lines.

, but obviously, Bates’ mentality has not been completely adjusted.

"President Bates, starting a war will not be of any benefit to the Telephone and Telegraph Group or America Telecom. Perhaps it will be even more detrimental to the Telephone and Telegraph Group!" Song Yang reminded "tactfully" towards Bates.

Seeing Song Yang's attitude, Betes couldn't help but sigh. She knew that threats were of no use to Song Yang and America Telecom. Although she just tried it, Song Yang's reaction was...

It still makes Bates clearly feel that the Telephone and Telegraph Group is now in decline, and it no longer has any deterrent effect!

He still had a sullen face, but Bates's attitude obviously softened a bit, "Song, Telephone and Telegraph Group has always been supporting you. Ever since you got up, Telephone and Telegraph Group has been your supporter, and this is how you repay.

Telephone and Telegraph Group?”

When Betes mentioned this, Song Yang did not deny that the Telephone and Telegraph Group had indeed helped a lot, including Double Click's first advertisement, acting as backer for America Telecom, selling Bell Labs to Song Yang, etc., although

The Telephone and Telegraph Group was not a charity, and it received a lot of money for providing these "helps", but in name, it was always helping Song Yang.

"President Bates, I have never forgotten that. Just like Netscape's support for Double Click, Double Click and America Telecom have never forgotten the help provided by Telephone and Telegraph Group!"

After finally surviving WorldCom, America Telecom ushered in an American Telecom that was far more powerful than WorldCom. Just thinking about it made the board of directors of the Telephone and Telegraph Group numb.

I thought so, but my rationality told Bates that even if we had to do it over again, it is estimated that the Telephone and Telegraph Group would still choose the same decision as before. The Telephone and Telegraph Group would have to explain to the board of directors that it would increase its stock price, and America Telecom has in recent years

, precisely provided all this for the Telephone and Telegraph Group. It seems to be feeding a tiger into trouble, but could it be that the Telephone and Telegraph Group took the initiative to feed the tiger with its own body?!

"Song, I still have two years left in my term as president of the Telephone and Telegraph Group. I will end my career in the Telephone and Telegraph Group ahead of schedule after the end of this year!"

As he spoke, Song Yang cast his eyes towards Bartley, who looked somewhat embarrassed when he met Song Yang's gaze.

At this time, Bates was angry but helpless. He inexplicably remembered the word "raising a tiger to cause trouble." If he had known that America Telecom was a young man, the Telephone and Telegraph Group would not have allowed this hungry tiger to grow.

America Telecom does not have its own telephone business. The broadband, ring tone, mobile network and other services launched are all cooperating with the Telephone and Telegraph Group. In the past few years, America Telecom has attracted more new users to the Telephone and Telegraph Group than any other competition.

Opponents, these new users all mean wasted money!

In recent years, Telephone and Telegraph Group's revenue, I dare not say a quarter, but at least one-sixth, has been related to American Telecom. Bates has also firmly held the position of president of Telephone and Telegraph Group. This can

We know who benefited from the cooperation between American Telecom and Telephone and Telegraph Group. If the market was not good, Bates would have packed up and left just like his predecessors!

At the beginning, WorldCom was clamoring to become the largest telephone operator in America. Although it failed to succeed, it still put a lot of pressure on the Telephone and Telegraph Group.

The American phone market will usher in a new war. Bates sees this clearly. America Telecom and the emerging telecommunications manufacturers will definitely not be willing to succumb to Telephone and Telegraph Group, Southwestern Bell, Verizon, etc.

After Sprint and other established telecommunications groups, a fierce price war will definitely break out.

Song Yang and Betes both stared at each other. They didn't pierce the window paper, but they both knew that they were not talking about Shitong at all.

As for who loses and who wins, Bates doesn't bother to worry about it. She just needs to make sure that when she leaves her job, Telephone and Telegraph Group is still the top player in the telecommunications industry in America. As for the other things, she doesn't bother to worry about whether it's a flood or not after she leaves.

Taotian, she has already resigned. Does the Telephone and Telegraph Group survive or not? What does it have to do with her? As long as she runs fast, the scapegoat cannot catch up with her...

The appearance of Bates was really beyond Song Yang's expectation. If there was a head-on confrontation, then America Telecom would just accept the move. But Bates suddenly had to leave his job and retire. As the "benefactor" of America Telecom, he had the nerve to call and telegraph at this time.

Will the group go to war to cause trouble for Bates?

Sooner or later, America Telecom and Telephone & Telegraph Group will have a battle. This is unavoidable. Not only does America Telecom want to enter the telephone market and seize Telephone & Telegraph Group's basic base, but Telephone & Telegraph Group also acquires John Malone's largest company in America.

Television network TCI, while the second largest television network is Comcast Television Network, a subsidiary of ICQ.

"Then Song, you should know what it will mean for the Telephone and Telegraph Group if America Telecom joins WorldCom's restructuring plan. The Telephone and Telegraph Group cannot tolerate WorldCom standing up again!"

It's not easy now. When WorldCom lies in the coffin, the Telephone and Telegraph Group will definitely want to hammer it in quickly. How can WorldCom be allowed to resurrect the body and change its brand to continue to cause trouble to the Telephone and Telegraph Group.

"WorldCom has no chance to stand up again, and America Telecom will not let WorldCom stand up again!"

The Telephone and Telegraph Group sold its broadband business and Bell Labs to America Telecom. It was not a good deed. In the hands of the Telephone and Telegraph Group, these two major businesses were money-losing goods. They no longer wanted to maintain them and sold them to America Telegraph.

Telecom, not only received a huge amount of US dollars in exchange, but also obtained the equity of American Telecom.

Without America Telecom's "tribute", Telephone and Telegraph Group would lose a big piece of fat and lose a large number of users. This is something Telephone and Telegraph Group cannot bear.

To be honest, over the years, the Telephone and Telegraph Group, under the banner of America Telecom's "Bole", has taken a lot of advantage. The US dollars earned have long been unknown, including the original 30,000 US dollars in advertising fees.

Twice!

To put it bluntly, Bates is ready to run away. She has already received enough salary, bonuses, and dividends from the Telephone and Telegraph Group in the past few years. There is no need to deal with the mess anymore, and maybe bear the infamy.

After a while, Bates suddenly started talking about something else, leaving Song Yang and Bartley beside him stunned.

"Song, I hope that Telephone and Telegraph Group and America Telecom can maintain the "status quo" before I leave!"

There is no room for two tigers in one mountain. In the American cable TV network industry, there can only be one leader. TCI TV Network and Comcast TV Network are fighting fiercely to find one.

Hearing Song Yang compare Telephone and Telegraph Group with Netscape, I don't know why, but Bates always had a bad feeling in his heart. The ending of Netscape was not good. Even the last bit of value was squeezed out.

, the brand was sold by Song Yang to his archrival Microsoft at a high price...

It’s hard to say whether Bates is the best among the previous presidents of the Telephone and Telegraph Group, but for America Telecom, Bates is definitely a “noble man”. Without Bates’s series of assists, how could America Telecom have developed?

so good.

There is another point that Bates is most worried about and the reason why he rushed here overnight is that once America Telecom gets the telephone business from WorldCom and makes up for the last shortcoming, it will continue to rely on telephone and telegraph.

Group or independent company?

Not only because of the TV network, but also in the telecommunications industry, the Telephone and Telegraph Group, which has already fallen into a bottleneck period, is also entering the media, film and other industries, which coincides with the ICQ business, and a fight is inevitable.

However, this does not mean that America Telecom and the Telephone and Telegraph Group will definitely become mortal enemies. After the winner is decided, there is still the possibility that the two parties will collude to cut leeks. The premise is that the winner is completely determined and the Telephone and Telegraph Group withdraws.

TV networks, media, film industries, etc., were unable to compete with each other at that time, so they naturally started to cooperate.

It has to be said that Bates left at this time, which is a clever move. There is a one-year buffer period, and America Telecom can also prepare more chips.

"American Telecom can re-sign a two-year agreement with Telephone and Telegraph Group. America Telecom's broadband, mobile network, ring tone and other services will still cooperate with Telephone and Telegraph Group!"
