Chapter 862 The Richest Athlete in the World (Repay 5)

EST on May 16. The New York Stock Exchange ushered in the largest technology IPO in U.S. history, with a market estimated at $100 billion.

Such a huge valuation shocked not only the United States, but also the whole world. Major media from all over the world have reported on it, and some portal websites have even opened a special topic for it.

The issue price of FB stock was US$38, the highest price rose to US$42.05 on the day, and the final closing price was US$38.23, only a slight increase of 0.6%. On the IPO day, several major shareholders, including Zach, all sold in unison Selected some parts and chose to cash out.

In fact, the issue price was set a bit high, and the industry generally felt that an issue price within US$35 was more appropriate, but the underwriters wanted to make more money, so they set the price at US$38.

As the second largest shareholder, Fidelity Investments instantly became the top investment company on Hong Kong Island because of this IPO. According to the closing price of the day, the market value of FB has reached 104 billion US dollars, and the 22% shares held by Fidelity Investments have a market value of 22.8 billion US dollars. This is also an admirable number in Hong Kong Island, a world-class financial center. You must know that according to the 2011 Forbes ranking, Hong Kong Island's Li Chaoren ranked 11th in the world with assets of 26 billion U.S. dollars, and 22.8 billion U.S. dollars were placed on Hong Kong Island, but it was second only to Li Chaoren's existence.

Huang Weida also became famous overnight and became a tycoon-level existence in the financial industry on Hong Kong Island.

But soon, some financial people noticed that in the data released by the US Securities Regulatory Commission, the FB stock held by Fidelity Investments is an entrusted investment, which means that the 22.8 billion US dollars does not belong to Fidelity Investments, but It belongs to the client behind Fidelity Investments.

Under normal circumstances, things would end here. Entrusted investment is very common in the financial market. Fidelity Investments, as the entrusted party, must also keep it secret from real investors.

However, the US Securities Regulatory Commission did not keep it secret. When interested people deliberately inquired, Zhang Guan's English name appeared in the project form of the entrusted investment client.

A billionaire who suddenly appeared, naturally attracted people's attention.

"The client behind Fidelity Investments turned out to be Chinese, and the second largest shareholder of the largest technology company in the United States is actually a Chinese! With 22.8 billion US dollars, isn't it the richest man in the Mainland?"

"It's not just the mainland, it's probably second only to Li Chaoren in the entire Greater China region!"

"Zhang-Guan, Zhang Guan? Zhang Guan? What are the two words translated? Have any of you ever heard that there is a rich man named Zhang in China with this name?"

"It doesn't have to be 'Gong Zhang Zhang', maybe it's 'Li Zao Zhang'!"

"If you even count the rich man with the surname 'Li Zao Zhang', who is named Zhang-Guan?"

"I've never heard of it. When I first saw the name, I thought it was the athlete Zhang Guan!"

"Not to mention, Zhang Guan is the most used name in pinyin! Do you think this Zhang-Guan is Zhang Guan?"

"Zhang Guan? How is it possible! 22.8 billion US dollars! If he is so rich, what kind of athlete is he!"

"Zhang Guan must be worth a billion now, isn't that rich enough? Isn't he also an athlete?"

The sudden emergence of a rich man worth 22.8 billion US dollars is enough to attract the attention of all media, and Fidelity Investment, as an agent, has also become the core of public opinion.

...

The gate of Fidelity Investment has long been surrounded by reporters, and there are police officers at the gate to maintain order.

In the reception room, Huang Weida was greeting a middle-aged man in police uniform.

"Chen sir, thanks to you, otherwise, our gate would have been smashed by those reporters." Huang Weida said with a smile.

"Maintaining the safety of the citizens is the responsibility of our police, Mr. Huang, you are welcome." The Sir Chen paused, and then said: "But Mr. Huang, please forgive me, it is not an option to continue like this, our police You can always send people to maintain order, but surrounded by a group of reporters, your company can't do business!"

Huang Weida nodded. This Sir Chen had something to say, and his subtext was to let himself come up with a solution as soon as possible.

"Chen sir, I understand what you mean. Excuse me, go make a phone call." Huang Weida said, then turned and left.

After Huang Weida left, a police officer next to him asked, "Chen sir, shall we wait here?"

"It's a little messy, I think Huang Weida went to talk to the client behind the scenes on the phone, I believe it won't be long before we have the result we want." Chen sir said.

...

Zhang Guan thought for a few seconds while holding the phone, and then said: "Then make me public!"

"You decide?" Huang Weida asked.

"There is a saying that if you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of being missed by thieves. You have to open the door to do business. You can't be missed all the time! Besides, there is no impenetrable wall in this world. I am at ease with you, but the SEC can always help you. Should I keep it a secret? And the other major shareholders of FB also know that I am the entrusted investor. If I want to inquire, I will definitely be able to inquire about me from the United States." Zhang Guan said.

"I'm worried that if you disclose your identity, there will be unnecessary troubles. After all, it's 22.8 billion U.S. dollars!" Huang Weida said.

"So I'm glad now that I'm a public figure, and I'm also a well-known athlete. As the SEC thinks, public figures are always under the exposure of the media, but it's safer. Perhaps for me, fame The bigger it is, the less people will cause trouble!" Zhang Guan said with a smile.

"The more famous you are, the less people will cause trouble. It seems to be the case." Huang Weida nodded: "But you should be careful, I mean personal safety, let's hire some bodyguards!"

"Bodyguards? You may need them when you go abroad, but you don't need them in China. Don't forget, the world's top boxing champions are also knocked down by me!" Zhang Guan replied with a smile.

...

In the afternoon of the same day, Fidelity Investments held a press conference and announced that the principal, Zhang-Guan, was Zhang Guan!

"Zhang Guan!" All the reporters on the scene exclaimed.

"It turned out to be Zhang Guan! It turned out to be the world champion Zhang Guan! My God! Super big news!"

"At first I thought Zhang Guan was just an athlete, but I didn't expect him to be a billionaire!

"Zhang Guan should have earned a billion dollars over the years. I thought his money-making level was already good enough, but I didn't expect to underestimate him!"

"How much assets do you think Zhang Guan has? He must be the richest athlete in the world!"

"Nonsense, I guess Zhang Guan's assets should be ranked among the top 20 in the world by Forbes!"

"Zhang Guan is really good, he can win the championship, and he is so rich. By the way, after he broke up with Sharapova, he will always be single!"

"Isn't that right, but now, there should be a lot of beautiful women throwing themselves into their arms!"

...

In the Internet age, the speed of news dissemination is calculated in "seconds". Therefore, before Fidelity Investment's press conference was over, the news spread all over the world, and the media all over the world immediately exploded.

"World champion Zhang Guan is actually the second largest shareholder of FB!"

"My God, more than 20 billion U.S. dollars, if I have so much money, what kind of athlete will I be!"

"The active athletes all over the world may not have as much assets as Zhang Guan."

"In future competitions where Zhang Guan will participate, the security work will be complicated. If something happens to Zhang Guan, no organizer in the world can afford it!"

"Isn't it? Selling the International Olympic Committee won't be worth more than 20 billion U.S. dollars!"
