Zuckerberg, who was about to sign the contract, was completely stunned.

Everything is ready and needs to be signed. Now why do we say that if we don’t cooperate, we won’t cooperate?

Zuckerberg thought that TK Company did not understand the meaning of its parent company, Character Company.

So although he was very unhappy, he patiently whispered a few words to his assistant.

The assistant nodded and asked Song Lian: "Mr. Song, have you not heard from the general manager? All the contract documents today were agreed upon by both of us. We are just fulfilling a procedure."

Song Lian said without changing his expression: "Gentlemen, we know that the documents of the contract have been agreed before, but the contract will not form an offer before it is signed."

"We just introduced the latest instructions from the headquarters. TK Company will not accept acquisitions from any company. We will ensure our independence and integrity."

"So gentlemen, please come back."

Song Lian felt relieved after saying this.

The headquarters has prepared for the worst.

It is impossible to give up the cooperation with Changtian Technology under any circumstances.

Zuckerberg's face suddenly turned livid.

He is here to harvest today.

Come to gain wealth.

But now it seems that it is completely embarrassing for me to come here.

Quite embarrassing.

Zuckerberg got up angrily and left the meeting room.

His assistant said to Song Lian coldly: "You will pay the price for everything today."

Song Lian smiled and replied very politely: "TK Company abides by laws in the United States and other countries around the world. We believe that the laws of the United States are fair."

In fact, Song Lian himself didn't believe it until the end.

If you believe that an old sow can climb a tree, don't believe in the legal justice of the United States.

The laws of the United States serve capital, not fairness.

But the attitude must be set here.

Zuckerberg's assistant nodded and left the meeting room angrily.

Outside the conference room are the world's major media.

They have been waiting for the blockbuster news of Facebook's acquisition of TK Company.

So when they saw Zuckerberg and others coming out, they thought the contract had been negotiated and the cooperation agreement had been reached.

The media is crazy about Zuckerberg.

"Mr. Mark, has your contract been signed?"

“When will the Facebook team come in?”

"Mr. Mark, when will TK Company's Xia Guo team leave?"

"Will this acquisition have a significant impact on Facebook's stock price?"

Just when reporters were asking questions.

Capital markets also responded quickly.

Facebook's stock rose wildly, and soon rose by as much as 15%.

This is Facebook's largest single-day gain in recent years.

Obviously, capital is very optimistic about Facebook’s acquisition of TK Company.

I believe that after Facebook acquired TK, it will have a significant boost to Facebook's performance, so funds are buying like crazy.

TK company headquarters.

Under the frantic questioning of reporters.

Zuckerberg and his entourage said nothing.

Finally, under the escort of security personnel, Zuckerberg got into a special car and left the TK company headquarters.

This scene made the reporters at the scene look at each other in confusion.

"So what happened?"

"Is there any surprise about the acquisition?"

"Why did Mr. Mark leave with a dark face?"

"Just before joining the company, didn't Mr. Mark say that this acquisition will definitely be successful and that he will hold a press conference soon?"

"Isn't there even a press conference now?"

After Zuckerberg and others left, Song Lian and the senior executives of TK walked out of the conference room.

The reporters immediately turned their attention to Song Lian and others.

Song Lian has just contacted Zhang Wen and obtained some authorization.

He can hold a brief press conference on behalf of TK Company to explain the relevant situation to the outside world.

So I saw the reporters surrounding me so enthusiastically.

Song Lian said simply: "Now TK Company is holding a brief press conference. Journalists are asked to register at the staff and then wait in conference room 301."

Sure enough, something big is about to happen.

The reporters' acumen told them that something big was bound to happen.

After a few minutes of preparation, Song Lian held a press conference in conference room 301.

Song Lian looked at the crowd of reporters and cameras and said, "I'm going to announce two things here."

"The first thing is that TK has been abiding by local laws since entering the United States last year. We insist on serving American users with high-quality content. I believe that our efforts will definitely win the love of American users. The actual situation

We did it.”

"The second thing is that TK Company will stick to our original intention. We will not be acquired by any American company, and our content will be original."

After Song Lian finished talking about these two things, he left the conference room, leaving the reporters who still needed time to react.

At this time, the whole conference room became lively.

The reporters were shocked.

"What did TK mean just now? Does it mean the acquisition failed?"

"To be precise, TK Company rejected Facebook's acquisition."

"No, no, no! It was TK Company that rejected all acquisitions from American companies!"

"Oh my God, if this is the case, then TK Company's future will be worrying!"

Journalists actually have a clear mind.

Their hearts are quite clear.

TK Company was previously willing to be acquired by an American company and willing to sell itself. The most fundamental reason was not that they wanted to seek American capital, but that they were forced to do so.

This time TK Company is seeking capital to harden the United States. If that isn’t the future, what else is it?

Reporters immediately published this blockbuster news on the front pages of their own media.

The New York Times: Termination! TK Corporation terminates sale of itself.

: Facebook returned in disgrace, and one second before the acquisition, TK changed its strategy.

The reporters' crazy reports made TK's American users cheer for joy.

Most of TK users are young users.

They have long been fed up with the arbitrariness of Facebook or Twitter, as well as those old-fashioned functions and algorithms.

So they abandoned Facebook and Twitter and fell into the arms of TK.

When using TK software, some users have realized their self-worth, some have found their own circle of friends, and some have even gained money and wealth from it.

Therefore, they sincerely do not want TK Company to be acquired by Facebook.

Of course, because they are young, they will not think so much about what will happen after TK Company offends American capital.

The capital market is going crazy.

Facebook, which had already risen by 15%, almost plummeted. The stock price once fell by 20%, and finally narrowed the decline to 15%.

Even so, it created Facebook's biggest decline in recent years.

This decline made Zuckerberg vomit blood.

Facebook's current market capitalization is $300 billion.

A 15% drop would be $45 billion.
