《福布斯》讯：因未能在价格方面达成一致，微软上周末宣布放弃对雅虎的收购。雅虎联合创始人、CEO杨致远随后向全体员工发送了一封电子邮件，描述了雅虎未来的发展前景，并呼吁大家应当加倍努力。

下面为这封电子邮件的全部内容：

发送至：雅虎员工

发送时间：美国东部时间5月3日19:26(北京时间5月4日7:26)

主题：今天的新闻

全体雅虎员工：

微软今天宣布，已经撤回了收购雅虎的请求。从微软提交收购方案开始，我们的独立董事和管理团队一直认为，微软收购报价低估了雅虎的价值。我们非常高兴地看到，很多雅虎股东都赞同我们的观点。雅虎董事会和管理团队现在仍然专注于将股东价值最大化，同时寻求可以帮助我们在所处市场获得成功和领先地位的战略机会。

当然，我们预计微软的声明将会吸引媒体的高度关注。与此同时，也将有媒体对雅虎的未来提出质疑。这意味着我们将继续成为焦点，就像过去三个月一样。在这种程度的关注下，我们仍然有出色的表现，对此我感到骄傲。雅虎过去一个季度取得了优异的业绩，这是所有人刻苦工作和高度专注的证明。我们现在应当继续发光发亮，展示我们的成就，延续上一季度的势头。

微软收购必然会导致我们分心，但这已经成为过去，我们现在应当加倍专注。我们应当集中全力，继续完成雅虎历史上最为重要的转变。我们将如何做呢？我们要执行和把握既定的战略和重点，继续为雅虎用户社区、广告客户、发行商和开发者提供必不可少的体验。

最后，我们仍然是一家独立的公司。我们拥有雅虎所特有的精神和文化，我们不会忘记这一点。正是这样的精神和文化帮助我们成功应对了最近面临的不确定性，并将于未来继续作为一家独立公司发展。这也正是为何在财富500强公司中，只有雅虎(yahoo!)的公司名称后面有感叹号的原因。现在，我们应当向外界展示这个感叹号的真正含义。

未来几周里，德克尔(雅虎总裁)和我将访问尽可能多的雅虎办事处，感谢你们过去和未来为雅虎做的一切。我希望你们能像我们一样，对雅虎的未来充满信心。

Yang To Employees: \'We Must Redouble Efforts\'

Yahoo! Chief Jerry Yang sent a letter to employees Saturday after Microsoft withdrew its bid for the company, thanking them for persevering. But Yahoo!\'s work is far from done, he said. The company needs to redouble its efforts and rise again:

Yahoo!s,

Today Microsoft announced that it has withdrawn its proposal to acquire Yahoo! From the beginning of this process, our independent board and leadership team have maintained that Microsoft\'s offer undervalues the company, and we\'re pleased that many of our shareholders agreed with us. Our board and leadership team now remain focused on maximizing shareholder value and pursuing strategic opportunities that position us for success and leadership in our markets.

Of course, we anticipate that Microsoft\'s announcement will draw media attention and speculation as to what happens next for Yahoo! That means the spotlight will be on us--just as it has been for the past three months. I\'m incredibly proud of how we\'ve performed under such scrutiny, with last quarter\'s great financial results as a testament to everyone\'s hard work and focus. Just as we did last quarter, now is the time for us to shine and show what we\'re made of.

With the distraction of Microsoft\'s unsolicited proposal behind us, we must redouble our efforts. We should focus our energies on continuing to execute the most important transition in our history. How will we do this? By executing against the strategies and priorities we already have in place, and by continuing to deliver indispensable experiences for our communities of users, advertisers, publishers and developers.

In the end, it all comes back to who we are as a company. We have a spirit and a culture that is uniquely Yahoo!--and we can\'t forget that. Staying true to who we are has helped us pull through the recent uncertainty we\'ve faced, and will continue to be an asset as we move ahead. There\'s a reason why we\'re the only fortune 500 company with an exclamation point at the end of our name, and now is the time to demonstrate what that exclamation point stands for.

Over the next several weeks, Sue and I plan to visit as many offices as we can to thank you in-person for everything you\'ve done and continue to do for Yahoo!. We hope you\'re as excited as we are about the future that lies ahead for all of us--together as one Yahoo!

Jerry
