百度躋身科技行業7大增長明星行列

Priceline ????比爾?夏特納應該會很高興。因為這位前《星戰》演員被旅游網站Priceline請去做了一次代言，而現在這家公司的股票已經被估到了每股1000美元，這是連谷歌（Google）都沒有達到過的高度。去年Priceline實現了14.81億美元的盈利。另外它還斥資18億美元收購了擁有強勁移動戰略的勁敵Kayak，為自己的發展道路掃清了頭號威脅。 ????另外，Priceline還于2004年收購了國際酒店預訂網站Bookings.com，延續著海外擴張的勢頭。事實上，2012年，來自海外市場的預訂額占了這家公司所有酒店預訂額的80%。 |
Priceline ????Bill Shatner should be pleased. Priceline (PCLN) — which employed the ex-Star Trek actor to be its advertising persona — wowed market-watchers as its stock edged close to a $1,000 valuation, a feat not even managed by Google. The travel site made $1.481 billion in profits in the past year. Its purchase of arch rival Kayak for $1.8 billion rid it of a serious competitor with a robust mobile strategy. ????Bookings.com, an international hotels reservation site acquired in 2004, keeps on expanding abroad. In fact the international market accounted for 80% of the company's bookings in 2012. |
