Chapter 272 I heard that there is a B-ultrasound in the hospital?

Bai Ye patted Wendy's smooth and delicate snow back and asked: "How is Twitter's acquisition plan going?"

Wendy turned around sensibly, with her S-shaped hot figure facing away from Bai Ye, and said: "We have made so many preparations, and Twitter's board of directors has been tortured enough by us. We would rather make less money than prepare to surrender. ”

"It is estimated that after signing a formal contract in two days, we will be able to take control of Twitter for a total price of US$20 billion."

Bai Ye said "hmm", breathed out a sigh of relief, and said:

"So what are your thoughts after acquiring Twitter?"

"Hiss—!" Wendy took a breath, then frowned and said: "I think there are too many Indian executives at Twitter, and even the proportion of Indian executives in the entire American Internet is too high. An Indian gang has been formed, working together to bring losses to the company. After we take control of Twitter, the first thing we do is to fire those Indian executives and take control of Twitter’s actual power.”

"Well, that makes sense." Bai Ye twisted his body and said, "We didn't care what Twitter did before, but now that they are under our control, we will definitely not be able to hire disobedient employees."

Wendy was inspired by White Night and was very excited. She continued: "And Twitter is too bloated now. It needs a major layoff, at least 50% of its employees, to reduce costs..."

Bai Ye patted Wendy's butt and told her to slow down.

Wendy immediately understood and slowly said: "Twitter's core business is a content-based social network, which does not require much technical support and developers. Compared with companies like Facebook and Google, which require a lot of resources To maintain and optimize its complex algorithms and advertising systems, Twitter can improve its efficiency and flexibility by streamlining its organizational structure and processes."

"Of course, the layoffs are not blind. As long as the core members of the product, engineering, design, data science, content security and other departments are retained in a targeted manner, they can focus more on their core strengths and differentiated competitiveness."

Bai Ye groaned for a while.

It is said that after his younger brother Musk acquired Twitter, he laid off more than 80% of Twitter's employees. Many people were looking down on Twitter, but they did not expect that in just two months, Twitter's quarterly decline Both revenue and user growth exceeded expectations, giving it new vitality.

This fully demonstrates that Twitter’s internal structure is indeed too bloated.

In fact, programmers are not migrant workers, and one with good skills is worth a hundred. In many cases, a bloated team actually hinders the performance of the master.

He said: "Wendy, you are still too conservative. How can 50% of the layoffs be enough? At least 80% of the layoffs!"

"Ah?" Wendy opened her mouth in surprise and said, "If we lay off 80% of our staff, the company won't be paralyzed, right?"

Originally, she was nervous enough when she proposed to lay off 50% of her employees. She was afraid that Bai Ye would say she was too radical. But now it seems... Bai Ye was too radical. He laid off 80% of the employees of a large company... I have never seen this kind of thing before. A precedent.

"What are you afraid of? At worst, we can transfer software engineers and programmers from Snap to Twitter." Bai Ye said: "The operating efficiency of Internet companies in Silicon Valley is indeed getting lower and lower. The main reason is that Indians form cliques in the company. It destroys the overall work efficiency, so we must kill this unhealthy trend and lay off all non-essential Indian employees. If you are happy, you can recruit more Chinese employees."

"Only by laying off some people can we deploy our own 'direct troops' and gain greater control over Twitter."

"Then I listen to you!" Wendy said excitedly, shaking her head: "Twitter has been at a disadvantage in the competition with Facebook over the years. If it does not make some changes and achieve self-innovation and transformation, it will As long as the social media space retains its uniqueness and leadership, that’s it.”

"I think what Twitter needs is to be more open and cooperative. It should be able to make Twitter's algorithm public to make the specific logic of content recommendation and blocking transparent. And it can transfer its resources to areas with more potential and prospects, such as Audio social networking, paid subscriptions, content cooperation, etc., will allow Twitter to further highlight its value and influence as a platform for information dissemination and public opinion guidance..."

Half an hour later.

Wendy lay on the sofa, her eyes blank, and fireworks lit up in her mind.

Bai Ye was leaning on the sofa on the side, smoking a cigarette, while holding her mobile phone, browsing online shopping websites at home and abroad, and searching for some products.

Suddenly.

A phone call came, and it was Gwen.

Bai Ye's expression changed slightly, and he glanced at Wendy next to him...

It should be fine.

Picked up the phone.

"Hey, Brother Bai Ye, come to the Avengers Building quickly... something happened."

Gwen's voice was unusually weak.

"Um?"

Bai Ye's brows suddenly furrowed.

Fulian Building.

Bai Ye rushed over wearing the Blue Devil armor.

In the Avengers lounge, Bai Ye met Gwen.

There were also Captain America, White Tiger Ayala and other Avengers members accompanying him.

It's just that Gwen's face is slightly pale.

"What's going on?" Bai Ye came over and asked quickly: "Where are you injured, Gwen?"

"I'm fine. I just had a fight with Jessica and hit her a few times. It hurt a little. But Parker is in danger now." Gwen said anxiously when she saw Bai Ye.

"Don't be anxious, tell me slowly what's going on."

Bai Ye grabbed Gwen's hand and comforted her.

Gwen calmed down and explained what happened tonight in an orderly manner.

The Avengers also have patrol schedules. Tonight, the boyfriend and girlfriend Parker and Jessica Jones were supposed to patrol Brooklyn together to see if anyone was causing trouble.

But Jessica Jones was very unlucky. After solving a gang member who robbed a woman, she met a man in a purple suit.

This man in a purple suit seems to be a superpower, with the ability to control others. Unfortunately, Jessica Jones was controlled.

Parker, who was not far away, saw it, and of course he exploded.

His girlfriend is controlled by an evil villain, and he does whatever he wants her to do.

Parker couldn't even imagine what would happen if the man in the purple suit really took Jessica Jones away.

He immediately called for backup and went to the rescue.

Parker is not a fool. He doesn't know the enemy's intelligence, and he doesn't dare to underestimate the enemy. He just wants to take Jessica Jones away from the scene first, and then cause trouble for this super villain later.

The man in the purple suit directly ordered Jessica Jones to kill Parker.

Jessica Jones is so powerful that she is nicknamed "Superman". Isn't it simple?

If Parker had used all his tactics to defeat the enemy, he might have had a chance to defeat Jessica Jones, but Parker was weak and was beaten by Jessica Jones.

Without Parker noticing, the man in the purple suit was already very close to him...

Not surprisingly, Parker was also controlled.

Fortunately, at this time, the support of Gwen arrived in the Ghost Spider Armor. The reason why Gwen drove the Ghost Spider Armor was because, on the one hand, the support was fast, and on the other hand, through Parker and Jessica, ·Jones’ law enforcement recorder, Gwen has discovered that the man in the purple suit has the ability to control others, and her ghost spider armor can isolate the air and protect against mental intrusion to a certain extent.

Seeing that the situation was critical, Gwen took action immediately without any nonsense.

Unexpectedly, Parker and Jessica Jones teamed up to beat her next.

Parker's strength as a lizardman is almost the same as Gwen's. Jessica Jones's strength is even more powerful than Parker's. With the two of them joining forces, Gwen is still at a disadvantage even if she puts on the Ghost Spider Armor.

And under the orders of the man in the purple suit, the two of them fought in a completely lifeless manner. How could Gwen win the fight if she threw a rat-proof weapon?

The man in the purple suit also wanted to repeat the same trick on Parker to control Gwen, but unfortunately, all his methods were blocked by the Ghost Spider Armor.

The man in the purple suit at the back got angry himself and did something even more shameless, controlling ordinary people and making them commit suicide in front of Gwen.

Gwen was immediately caught in a dilemma. If she tried to save ordinary people, Parker and Jessica Jones would suffer, but if she insisted on saving Parker and Jessica Jones, ordinary people would die...

Fortunately, Xinxing arrived in time. Gwen and Xinxing worked together to rescue the hostages who committed suicide and left Jessica Jones behind. As for Parker, he was taken away - Gwen consciously kept Jessica Jones behind. Jones, because she knows what will happen to a beautiful girl like Jessica Jones who is taken away by someone with mind control. As for Parker, a boy is not a big problem, because That man has the ability to control others, and he obviously wants to recruit some powerful thugs to cause trouble. Even if Parker falls into his hands, he will not be killed directly. This is not in his interest.

"Jessica was knocked unconscious by Xinxing and I and brought back. I thought there should be no big problem, but Parker was taken away by that man. Brother Baiye, what should we do?"

Gwen looked at Bai Ye helplessly.

Rogers frowned and looked at Bai Ye: "You and Tony, can you find a way to locate that man and Parker as soon as possible?"

"Gwen, Brother Jie." Bai Ye sighed and said: "I originally asked all members of the Avengers to install a biochip on their bodies just to prevent this kind of situation. This way, even if they disappear or are caught, , you can also immediately lock the location and go to greet you, but you all said that this is an invasion of privacy, don't pretend...now you know my foresight, right?"

Captain America and Gwen blushed.

Nova, White Tiger, and Luke Cage also lowered their heads.

Bai Ye did talk about the biochip at the beginning, but none of them wanted to pretend it was a thing. They all thought it would hinder their freedom, and even Gwen didn't agree.

Now they finally feel that Bai Ye's idea still makes sense.

"Okay, leave this to me. In two days at most, I promise to give you a well-behaved and sensible Parker!" Bai Ye said.

"So confident?" Rogers looked at Bai Ye in surprise and said, "But you only heard about this just now."

"You have been sleeping for too long. Gwen and the others are too young, so they don't understand the rules of the current world at all." Bai Ye glanced at Rogers and said, "I should know that this person you are talking about is a member of the world below. Someone who is a member of the Communist Party of China and has certain channels can find his information."

"who is it?"

"His name should be Zebdia Kilgrave, a British spy. Once his mission was to steal an experimental nerve gas from an American Army base. During the theft, the nerve gas he was released would He swallowed it and mutated, and later he discovered that the nerve gas gave him the superpower to command and control other people." Bai Ye said: "Purple Man's body can secrete some special chemical hormones. Once these hormones are controlled by others, By absorbing it through the skin, people can be controlled by the Purple Man's words. These effects are only effective when he is present and uses his own tone and tone."

"No wonder Jessica and Parker were easily controlled by him, but I wasn't. Sure enough, it was because I turned on the ghost spider armor's air-isolating function out of caution." Gwen suddenly realized.

"So you don't have to worry. If I mobilize the underground forces, it shouldn't be a big problem to find him." Bai Ye seemed to be smiling, but actually said through gritted teeth.

Ziren, this bastard, wants to control Jessica Jones, but he actually wants to control Gwen. Why don't Baiye give him a few baseball bats and rolling pins to open his eyes?

"There's no rush on Parker's side. The most important thing now is Gwen, you and Jessica. Let's go to the hospital for a full-body checkup." Bai Ye said, "Don't worry, it's Osborne's private hospital and there won't be any information." Exodus."

"Ah?" Gwen blinked and said, "I'm fine, just slightly injured..."

"I don't want you to think, I want me to feel." Bai Ye said domineeringly: "Even if you are fine Gwen, but Jessica is controlled, don't you want to take her for a careful examination to see if there are any sequelae? What?"

Gwen thought about it and felt the same way. Even if it didn't matter to her, Jessica couldn't take it lightly. The purple man's ability was too weird.

then.

Bai Ye took Gwen and Jessica Jones to a private hospital owned by Osborne and gave them both a full body examination.

In the hospital.

Tony also heard that something happened in the Avengers, and even made a video call. Seeing the background wall behind Bai Ye, he asked in surprise: "You ran to the hospital? Is the problem serious?"

"No." Bai Ye shrugged and said, "I was just strolling around and heard from a friend that there is a B-ultrasound here."

Tony: "..."
