Hollywood Starts with Animation

$9.36 billion!

This is all of Zucker's current net worth!

The net worth of nearly 10 billion US dollars is enough for Zucker to rank in the top 100, or even the top 80, in the 1999 Global Rich List; of course, if only the 1999 rich list in the United States is calculated, then Zucker can definitely rank in the top 50. .

It's not that Zucker is ineffective, but it's actually that the top tycoons are too buggy!

In 1999, Microsoft's Bill Gates was awesome!

Its market value of Microsoft, driven by the Internet era, became the world's first stock in May 1999, with a market value of 600 billion, close to the peak of 620 billion before the Internet bubble burst!

This record has been sealed for 13 years!

Subsequently, the Internet bubble burst, the market value of Internet companies fell one after another, and investors became more rational. Even Microsoft took more than ten years to return to its peak.

Until 2012, the rising Apple broke the 13-year-old record with a market value of 630 billion US dollars!

In 1999, Bill Gates was the world's richest man with a personal fortune of $103.4 billion!

Its huge wealth is more than 60 billion US dollars higher than that of Carlos, the second largest in the world!

Faced with the huge bug of Bill Gates, what do you think Zucker would compare to now?

Similarly, in the United States in 1999, the top 50 on the rich list, the major shareholders of Cisco, America Online, Yahoo, Amazon, etc., which one was not worth more than 10 billion, or was close to 10 billion?

Zucker's current wealth is indeed not as good as theirs.

"How is it?"

"I hold Google and LinkedIn in my hands, and the future rewards of these two companies alone are enough to make me go further!"

"Besides, the richest man in the world is not my pursuit!"

"With Jin Shuguang Entertainment Group as the center, we will build a media group that can distribute movies around the world. With a large number of technology stocks and Internet stocks, I can definitely control my life easily and happily!"

for a while,

Zukoton felt very proud.

"Mr. Wald!"

At this moment, Anna, a private financial advisor, interrupted Zuke's thoughts.

"Is something wrong?" Zucker frowned.

Anna said: "Mr. Wald, as a financial advisor to your financial team, I would like to ask you if you have any other investment plans in the near future? You know, you have $590 million in cash in your personal account, and $780 million worth of cash in your account. Gold reserves. This huge amount of money is not used for investment, and at the current rate of depreciation of the dollar, it is definitely not a means of avoiding risks.”

Zucker nodded.

He understood what Anna meant!

In recent years, the depreciation rate of the US dollar has indeed been somewhat rapid, and with the rise of the great eastern powers, the European Union, and Asian countries, the US dollar is no longer enough to be called "the US dollar". The international situation is constantly changing, and the dollar continues to depreciate. , is irreversible!

Dollars don't hold their value!

"Mr. Wald, I suggest that you continue to increase your gold reserves, or invest in other technology stocks and Internet stocks to preserve your personal wealth." Anna suggested.

Investing in tech and internet stocks?

Suddenly, Zucker shook his head.

joke!

Even if Zucker wants to preserve his wealth, he does not want to invest in Internet stocks at this stage. No one knows better than the traveler that it is less than 7 months before the burst of the Internet bubble.

"Investing in Internet stocks, I have no brains!" Zu Ke thought to himself.

In fact, there was $590 million in the account, which surprised Zucker!

Then Zhu Ke looked at the specific information and solved his doubts.

In recent years, Wald Pictures has produced a lot of box-office movies and made a lot of money. Even if this part of the money is not allocated by Zucker, it is all used for the construction of overseas channels and the production cost of new films, but Zucker has worked as a producer in many film productions.

The film producer is paid, and there are box office dividends!

In recent years, this part of the income alone has accumulated more than 40 million US dollars!

In the same way, the UPN TV network and WB TV network under the Jin Shuguang TV Group have produced variety shows such as "The Talent Show", and TV dramas such as "Prison Break", which also made a lot of money for Zhu Ke.

$590 million in cash in personal accounts, that's how it came!

"Anna, I have no plans to invest for the time being." Zucker shook his head.

"Mr. Wald, I respect your decision, but as your financial advisor, I still want to remind you that keeping cash in the bank will cause your personal wealth to shrink," Anna said.

Hearing this, Zu Ke waved his hand quickly.

Anna is not a traveler, of course she doesn't understand Zuke's plan!

"Under the outbreak of the Internet, Lao Tzu took advantage of the trend to go short, isn't it bad?" Zu Ke smiled in his heart.

It takes a lot of money to go short!

The $590 million in personal accounts is enough to guarantee Zucker a big fight!

......

the next day.

Zucker took a flight from Los Angeles to Seattle.

The headquarters of Amazon's mall is located in the Seattle area, and Bezos, as the host, naturally has to say something to Zucker.

"Don't worry, you won't have to pay for this meal. As the host, I will pay for it!"

In a Michelin restaurant, Bezos was especially generous, not showing the stingy he used to be.

Zhu Ke smiled and said, "I'm here, and it must be your treat. And it's a matter of course, why are you so arrogant? Please answer?"

"Come on, man."

Bezos waved his hand disdainfully, "Tell me, how much did the 8% of Amazon stock you occupy make you? I remember when the icq was exchanged for shares, it was worth about $100 million, but now What you're getting in return is $3 billion worth of stock, and you're making a lot of money, man!"

Zuko showed a simple and honest smile.

Indeed, as Bezos said, Zucker made a lot of money.

"Baldou, if you feel jealous, you can buy back your shares from me. According to our friendship, I will definitely agree." Zu Ke smiled.

"Uh?"

Bezos's expression changed, and his eyes looking at Zucker immediately showed the meaning of scrutiny.

"Are you sure you're not kidding?" Bezos asked.

"Of course, I, Zucker, can open cases, wine, cars, desertions, but I'm not kidding." Zucker laughed.

When Bezos didn't understand Zucker's true intentions, he laughed it off.

Zucker added: "I'm short of cash recently, and I really plan to sell some Amazon shares. Even if I don't sell it to you, I believe there will be a lot of people willing to take over."

The explosion of the Internet bubble is imminent!

Zu Ke has the intention to cash out a wave of the idea of ​​landing safely!

"Of course, I won't sell all the technology stocks in my hands, but some companies' stocks must be sold."

Amazon stock, Zucker can sell part of it and get a high amount of cash;

Then, after the Internet bubble burst, Amazon's stock price fell from $40 to $2, and then absorbed another wave of ultra-low prices.

High price cash, low price recycling!

This one after another operation is enough to make Zuke earn money.

"For 2% of Yahoo's stock, we must find a successor, otherwise, when the crisis occurs, I will definitely lose a lot."

Yahoo is different from Amazon!

In the future, Amazon will be the world's most valuable company, and a giant company with a market value of more than one trillion US dollars. Holding its shares is definitely a profitable thing;

Not so with Yahoo!

After the burst of the Internet bubble, Yahoo was devastated, and its market value plummeted every year. It is definitely not a good thing to hold its stock for a long time.

Classmate Zhu Ke is a man with many chickens and thieves!

Zucker was happy for his nearly ten billion dollar net worth, but soon after, it was exposed by a media newspaper.

"" first more.
