Yahoo Promises Not to "Screw It Up" Over 1.1billion dollars Tumblr Deal

雅虎承诺不会将与汤博乐价值11亿美元的交易搞砸

Yahoo promised "not to screw it up" as it formallyannounced its acquisition of the Tumblr bloggingplatform for 1.1 billion dollars ahead of the USstock market opening on Monday.

周一美国股市开盘前,雅虎正式宣布以11亿美元收购汤博乐博客平台时,承诺不会将这件事搞砸。

The deal, which is expected to complete in the second half of the year, is almost all cash, isequal in value to Yahoo’s money in hand at the end of its first quarter in March—but it hassubstantial extra assets in short-term securities, shares in the Chinese site Alibaba, and otherequities which it can liquidate.

这个预计将在今年下半年完成的交易几乎全部使用现金,总价相当于今年三月份第一季度末,雅虎手头所有的现金量。但是,雅虎拥有短期证券的大量额外资产,中国网站阿里巴巴的股份,以及其他可以兑现的股票。

Yahoo plans to use its personalization and search technologies to tie Tumblr users more tightlyinto its network—thus dragging their attention away from rival social networks.

雅虎计划使用个性化和搜索技术使汤博乐用户与雅虎网络更加牢固的联系在一起,以这种方式把用户的注意力与其他竞争性社交网络隔离开来。

Tumblr is redefining creative expression online,"the Yahoo chief executive, Marissa Mayer, saidin a statement. "On many level, Tumblr and Yahoo couldn’t be more different, but, at thesame time, they couldn’t be more complementary. Yahoo is the internet’s original medianetwork. Tumblr is the internet’s fastest-growing media frenzy. Both companies are homesfor brands-established and emerging. And, fundamentally, Tumblr and Yahoo are both allabout users, design, and finding surprise and inspiration amidst the everyday."

雅虎首席执行官玛丽莎·梅耶在一份声明中称,汤博乐正在重新定义网络创造性表达。雅虎和汤博乐在很多层面上都有很大的不同,但是,它们也存在很强的互补性。雅虎是互联网的原始媒体网络,而汤博乐是增长速度最快的一股互联网媒体狂潮。两家公司都是已经确立的品牌和新兴品牌的发源地。而且,从根本上讲,汤博乐和雅虎都与用户,设计,以及发现日常生活中惊喜和灵感有关。

Announcing the deal on Tumblr’s staff blog, David Karp, Tumblr’s 26-year-old founder, said: "We’re not turning purple. Our headquarters isn’t moving. Our team isn’t changing." Karp willremain Tumblr’s chief executive. The deal will see Karp become the latest high-school dropoutturned multimillionaire. Thank you.

汤博乐创始人,26岁的大卫·卡普,在汤博乐的员工博客上宣布了这个交易。他说,我们没有变成雅虎,我们的总部不会迁移,团队也不会改变。卡普仍将担任汤博乐的行政总裁,这场交易也将见证科普,新近的高中辍学生,变身为千万富翁的瞬间。谢谢。
