Back To 1995: Chapter 1036 Thirty years in Hexi
Chapter 1036 Thirty Years Hexi
What worries Telephone and Telegraph Group the most is that American Telecom acquired the telephone business of WorldCom, then set up its own business, and began to challenge Telephone and Telegraph Group.
Now Song Yang is willing to continue to let American Telecom cooperate with Telephone and Telegraph Group. At least during the tenure of Bates, the cooperation will not be terminated. This will keep the stock price of Telephone and Telegraph Group. , Betts is too lazy to care!
Betts was also very savvy. Song Yang gave her an agreement, and she naturally said, "I will take this agreement back to the board of the Telephone and Telegraph Group, and will not prevent America Telecom from participating in WorldCom's bankruptcy reorganization, but America How many things Telecom can get has nothing to do with the Telephone and Telegraph Group..."
Song Yang frowned, then nodded. Obviously, there are more than one or two telecommunications companies eyeing WorldCom's legacy, and they all want to fish in troubled waters, but as long as the Telephone and Telegraph Group does not create trouble for American Telecom, that's enough!
The noise of the San Jose Manor lasted for most of the night before subsiding. Song Yang did not rest in the manor, but returned to the previous villa, and moved there after Ulf set up all the security systems.
Early in the morning, James Crowe woke up from the bed. Although he had only slept for less than a few hours that night, James Crowe was quite excited and not tired at all.
Today is James Crowe, the day when Hu Hansan came back. After MFS Telecom was acquired by WorldCom, James Crowe was severely mocked by Bernard Ebbes, who is now stepping on a sewing machine in a federal prison. Crowe resigned.
And James Crowe changed his family, joined American Telecom, and became the vice president of America Telecom. At that time, Crowe was almost the laughing stock of the entire telecom industry. The dignified president of MFS Telecom became a bereaved dog. Iger, the president of American Telecom, became the younger brother.
Looking at himself in the mirror, Crowe had a smile on his face. He was kicked out at the beginning, but today James Crowe will return to WorldCom as a "winner" and "conqueror". What was the reaction of the former senior executives when they saw him.
What makes James Crowe a little regretful is that Ebes, who ridiculed him in public at the beginning, is now in jail. Unless Crowe goes to the prison where Ebes is held to visit his "old friend", otherwise Crowe couldn't settle the bill face to face, which made Crowe feel a little regretful.
After shaving off his beard and washing his face, James Crowe waved his finger at the mirror and said in a good mood, "Praise Bruno Song!"
It was still the former WorldCom headquarters building, but now, the whole building is filled with a depressing atmosphere. The scene of heavy traffic in front of the headquarters building is gone forever.
The staff of Shitong in the building also come and go in a hurry. No one has a smile on their face, but they all have a worried and numb expression. After all, no one knows whether the next one who is kicked out to apply for resignation will take turns. As far as I am concerned, WorldCom has closed many departments and dismissed tens of thousands of employees. Even the executives at the managerial level cannot protect themselves, let alone them.
To be honest, after WorldCom went bankrupt, it was considered lucky. After all, the family was there. Even if it went bankrupt, there were still so many users who paid the phone bills to WorldCom every month. , couldn't even get the pension, and was kicked out with bare hands. If it's miserable, it has to count the Enron Group.
Enron Group treats everyone equally, no matter who’s money is cheated, whether you are a Wall Street institution, a pension fund in the American states, or even the dollars of your own employees, Enron is equally cheated.
Now after Enron went bankrupt, there are almost a large number of Enron employees who cannot receive pensions, and there are even Enron executives. In order to pay off their debts, they had to accept the invitation of "Princess Playa" magazine and appeared in the magazine "Princess Playa". In the first issue, the special issue of "Enron Men's Edition", in the 14-page color page photos, various "shirtless" looks are staged!
That issue of "Flower Princess" magazine was sold like crazy. It was sold out several times in a row, and it was even exported to England, Germany, France and other places. Countless people who had their leeks cut by Enron almost all bought it. After reading that magazine, the last vestige of Enron Group's face was trampled to pieces. Who would dare to write that they had worked in Enron Group on their resume in the future? , and more murderous!
Came to the WorldCom headquarters again, looking at the familiar conference room in front of him, James Crowe lifted his tie, followed Eiger, and walked into the conference room.
There were many people sitting in the meeting room, including familiar faces and many unfamiliar faces. Sitting at the head of the meeting room was Sidgmore, who was once placed high hopes by Ebes and regarded as his successor.
Sitchmore has indeed become the head of WorldCom, but it is not what Ebes expected, and now WorldCom has become a big mess.
Sidgmore, who was sitting at the top, rested his head on his hands, his face was full of exhaustion, even white hair appeared on his head, just like the current Shitong, he seemed to be in big trouble.
When Iger brought the people from America Telecom into the meeting room, Sitchmore didn't react much. He was already a little numb. It wasn't just the America Telecom family who came here today to get a share.
However, when they saw James Crowe, Sitchmore and a group of Yuanshitong executives showed subtle expressions on their faces.
Thinking of James Crow’s embarrassment when he left Worldcom, and looking at Crowe who is about to bite off a large piece of Worldcom today, Sitchmore can only lament that things are different.
"President Sitchmore, long time no see!"
James Crowe said to Sitchmore and a group of WorldCom executives with a smile, as if meeting an old friend, and then slapped his forehead, as if he just remembered something, "Unfortunately, many "old friends" today It’s a pity that it disappeared, and Shitong seems to have undergone some changes!”
Listening to Crowe's words, including Sitchmore and others, their faces felt hot. Crowe's old friend "Emperor of Telecommunications" Ebes, as well as WorldCom's chief financial officer Scott and other executives, are not If you step on the sewing machine, you will be kicked out of the house. Seeing Shitong, you will also be trampled by Crowe.
Seeing the embarrassment of Sitchmore and others, James Crowe felt bad. He waited for this day, and he didn't know how long he had been waiting for!
Iger looked at the group of people in the conference room. There were not a few people who came to grab the cake this time, including Telephone and Telegraph, Verizon, SBC Telecom, Sprint, Chartered Communications and other companies. They were already there, and even like America Telecom, people from Quest Telecom, which belongs to the new generation of telecommunications, also came to the scene. Come on, one can imagine how many people miss Shitong.
Meeting Eiger's gaze, the founder of Quest Telecom, like America Telecom, who has also made a lot of money over the years, Philip Anschutz, the founder of Quest, nodded to Eiger quite nicely. A posture of one's own.
In the eyes of Philip Anschutz, American Telecom and Quest are indeed "insiders". The two companies started at about the same time. , Quest Telecom is going public to collect money, the two are at most half a catty!
For Philip Anschutz's overtures, Eiger just responded quietly and casually, which made Philip Anschutz feel a little embarrassed, but there is no way, Eiger is now a "big man" in the telecommunications industry , the status is much higher than him.
"The villain has been punished, we hope that those in Shitong can move on!"
As soon as the opening scene, Sitchmore used the big method of throwing the pot away, trying to blame Ebes for the black history of WorldCom. Those were all the mistakes made by Ebes, and they have nothing to do with them!
