Who knows the story of Masayoshi Son? Can you tell me something about it? I want the whole story. Thank you.

Sun Zhengyi, born on1August, 957 1 1, his parents run a pinball business on Kyushu Island, and his grandparents immigrated from North Korea to Japan as miners, using the Japanese surname Abe.

Software Banking Group Position: Chairman and President

Graduate School: Berkeley University

Son moved to Northern California in high school. Brilliant, he went to the University of California, Berkeley, majoring in economics. During his study, he used the resources of the famous jet propulsion laboratory in the United States to apply for a prototype patent of a language translator for Sharp, and soon earned his first million dollars.

2/Kloc-After graduation at the age of 0, he went back to his hometown again because he missed his mother, and changed his Korean surname. First of all, he simulated the enterprise he was going to set up, and worked out the expected breakeven statement, balance sheet and capital turnover statement for ten years respectively. He also worked out different types of company organization charts according to different time series, and made sand table deduction.

198 1 year, at the age of 23, he set up a software bank, and within half a year, he traded with 42 specialty stores and 94 software companies in Japan. The real stage of high technology is in the United States, but in the late 1980s, Sun Zhengyi worked hard in Japan, and he persuaded Japanese consortia such as Toshiba and Fujitsu to participate in the investment of software banks. Unfortunately, however, the operation was not smooth, and the original investment of the consortium was returned one year later. Sun Zhengyi took the responsibility of loss, but won the admiration of his predecessors, and the software bank became famous, which also laid a credit foundation for Sun Zhengyi's career.

Early in his career, it was not smooth sailing. 1994, the software bank failed to acquire Ziff Communication, and it didn't go online with Ziff-Davis publishing company until it took over the Comdex computer exhibition in Las Vegas with imperfect facilities and expensive participation fees. 1995, he bought part of the equity of zifu-Davis publishing company for $2 1 billion. By 1996, he had invested $3 1 100 million to obtain full management rights. He owns the Computer Intelligence Company of Ziff-Davis Publishing Company, which publishes PC Week for a long time and specializes in personal computer marketing research, and also owns Zdnet, a joint venture with Microsoft and NBC.

199 1 year, Borland Company, which is famous for its C language compiler, is going to release an upgraded version in Japan. At that time, philippe kahn, CEO of Borland Company, quickly reached an understanding with Software Bank. He said, "If we have any defense, we will discuss it at the sushi bar." In the same year, he persuaded Netwell, an American regional network professional company, to open up new markets in Japan. In order to spread the risk, he invited Disney to join again. 1994 blossomed and became one of the main standards of regional networks, with an annual turnover of1.300 million USD. Darl McBride, vice president of Netway, believes that Masayoshi Son is a middleman who can make anything come true.

1992, Sun Zhengyi obtained the agency right of Cisco system in Japan, and now 70% of the software sales channels in the Japanese market are controlled by software banks. 1In February, 1995, Masayoshi Son and Chambers, President of Cisco Systems discussed the feasibility of selling Cisco routers and establishing a Cisco Japan branch. A month later, the software bank invited 14 clubs in Japan non-stop, and * * * invested 40 million dollars together, which was completely ready. Peter Clark, head of Cisco's business department, said that Masayoshi Son is not like a slow Japanese, but more like a sword and a shoe. The Internet century is still in its infancy, but the software bank has been in full swing to meet the new era.

1994, Software Bank owned the largest exposition association in Japan's exhibition industry and also held a minority stake in Asahi TV. 1996, Yahoo Japan successfully entered Japan, made a profit in the first year, and went public for the first time in the OTC market, which became an instant hit. 85% of Japanese netizens have visited this website, and more importantly, they have invested in e-commerce from Yahoo portal to software bank. 1In February 1998, Software Bank sold 2% of Yahoo's shares at a price of $ 4. 1 billion, making a net profit of $390 million. At that time, I bought 30% of Yahoo's shares for 1 billion dollars, and now only 28% is still worth 8.4 billion dollars.

1in July, 1998, 400 million USD was invested in the famous American E*Trade online brokerage company. 1999, the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. also agreed to set up a joint venture with the software bank "NASDAQ Stock Market in Japan". The company may take the Internet as the main window, and the institutionalized and transparent online trading system is its characteristic. By 2000, the software bank had more than 300 American enterprises, and Sun Zhengyi's software bank finally became a real "global player".
