Chapter 80 Unstable Sega?

A few years later, when people look back at the development of the world economy from the mid-1990s to the first two years of the new century, the most impressive thing will definitely be the rise to bursting of the dot-com bubble.

!

An Internet trend made the whole world crazy. In July 1995, the Nasdaq index in the United States had just exceeded the 1,000-point mark. By early 1999, it had

It has exceeded 2,500 points, and the rate of rise is getting more and more crazy! Fang Mingyuan remembered that by the beginning of next year, the Nasdaq index will reach its peak, exceeding 5,000 points, but what follows?

, what caught people completely off guard was the bursting of the dot-com bubble, and the Nasdaq index also plummeted. In just two years, at its lowest point, the Nasdaq index actually returned to a thousand points, that is,

This means that four-fifths of the wealth was wiped out! At that time, the entire world economy was severely dragged down by this, and countless investors went bankrupt as a result!

Therefore, Fang Mingyuan did not dare to take it lightly, let alone wait until the five thousand point arrived. By that time, it would be too late!

"Sister Lian, have you noticed that in the Nasdaq market, there is such a company called Village. This is a website company that operates women's products and family life services. Its stock was listed in early March this year.

On the day it was listed, its stock price skyrocketed by 200%! Now its market value has exceeded US$1.3 billion, but do you know how much revenue this company earned in the first quarter?" Fang Mingyuan said.

.

"How much?" Lin Lian said.

"The revenue was US$7.5 million, while its expenses in the first quarter were US$32.9 million!" Fang Mingyuan said with emphasis, "In three months of operation, the company not only did not make a penny of profit.

, and there are huge losses! Do you think the market value of such a company is really worth US$1.3 billion?" In Fang Mingyuan's view, this company is simply taking advantage of the Internet. If it is a physical store,

, let alone a market value of 1.3 billion US dollars, even a market value of 13 million yuan is difficult!

"However, this is not because many current Internet companies are pursuing a strategy of rapid expansion and gaining sufficient market share at the expense of long-term net loss operations, hoping that this can establish sufficient brand awareness in the minds of consumers.

In order to harvest the profitability of future services..." Lin Lian said hesitantly. Her answer showed that Lin Lian still had a very clear understanding of the business development models of these Internet companies.

"That is to say, what everyone buys its stock is based on its future rate of return! But the future is uncertain, and it may go to the good side. It is also more likely to go in the opposite direction! As an investor,

Our first priority is to ensure profitability, followed by seeking greater benefits, and finally seeking to maximize benefits! The safe withdrawal of funds is the most important. As long as there are still funds, we can look for the next investment opportunity.

!" Fang Mingyuan said seriously, "In the long term in the future, investment opportunities will be unlimited!"

"That is to say, Mingyuan, you don't see the future of these Internet companies. Do you think they are likely to collapse in the near future?" Lin Lian said with some surprise. Today's Internet trend is at its climax.

When Nasdaq was hitting new highs almost every day, Fang Mingyuan actually said that it would collapse in the near future and that it would be necessary to exit in advance!

"It is not likely to collapse, but it will definitely collapse!" Fang Mingyuan said in an unquestionable tone, "People can tolerate a company's short-term losses, because various reasons can cause a company to suffer losses in a certain year.

Loss. But people cannot tolerate a company with a high stock price losing money every year without any hope of profit! Creativity can make people invest real money in it, but in the end it still depends on the company's return.

It can't always be floating in the air, right? Many companies now have been continuously absorbing funds since they were listed, but they still can't see the hope of making profits! People will eventually get tired of it, and they will also be wary.

! And once there is a turmoil in the world economy, even if it is just a false alarm, can you imagine the consequences?"

The dramatic reversal of the Nasdaq stock index and the ensuing bear market occurred so quickly that it was almost lightning-fast. There are many speculations about the reasons for its occurrence.

Some people say that it may have been triggered by the trial of the federal government's case against Microsoft. At that time, people thought that the result of the government trial was likely to declare Microsoft a monopoly and break it up! As Nas

The breakup of Microsoft, the iconic company of Dake high-tech stocks, will naturally cause investors to have certain concerns, which will lead to negative speculation on the future of other high-tech stocks, causing the Nasdaq index to begin to reverse!

Others say that the possible reason for the collapse of the Nasdaq and all Internet companies was because billions of dollars worth of sell orders on high-tech leaders such as Cisco, Microsoft, Dell and other well-known companies "happened" to happen at the same time at the same time.

Appeared on the morning of the trading day. The result of such a large selling order was that the Nasdaq index fell from above 5,000 points to below 4,900 points at the opening of the market, setting a record for the entire year of Nasdaq.

A new record for pre-market selling! This result immediately triggered a chain reaction of selling-investors, funds and institutions began to liquidate. In just six days, the Nasdaq index fell more than 500 points, and then collapsed

No one can stop the trend!

Fang Mingyuan didn't want to delve into what caused the bursting of the dot-com bubble. Anyway, he just had to make good use of this incident. What's more, in his opinion, the recent rise of the Nasdaq index is really crazy. If it continues like this

If it continues to rise, it will indeed be a bit unbelievable! Moreover, the bursting of the Netluo bubble is not a bad thing for him. At that time, he can completely repurchase the shares of companies with future development potential at a lower stock price.

return.

Lin Lian and Lin Rong couldn't help but change their faces slightly. The Nasdaq stock market may collapse in the near future. They believed that Fang Mingyuan was definitely not talking nonsense. The impact on the world economy would definitely be extraordinary!

"Don't spread this matter!" Fang Mingyuan said, "Sister Lian, as long as the Internet companies in our hands are not core companies in the industry, or companies with great potential, we should release their stocks! Well,

The time should not be later than the end of this year at the latest!”

"Yes! I'll make arrangements right away!" Lin Lian said, while thinking about what reasons to sell the stocks in her hands in batches. According to Fang Mingyuan, this big change should not happen this year.

will happen, then she will naturally pursue maximizing profits as much as possible!

"Mingyuan, since you are here this time, please pay attention to the movements of Sega Corporation. Recently, I feel that Sega Corporation is not so peaceful!" Lin Lian remembered something again and reminded.

Fang Mingyuan touched his chin, thoughtfully. He had many affairs in the past two years, so he paid less attention to Sega Corporation. However, judging from the year-end report, Sega Corporation's life was relatively smooth.

Its position as the leader of home game consoles is relatively stable. Although Nintendo and Sony are closely catching up, its position cannot be shaken for the time being. Last year, although it was affected by the outbreak of the financial crisis in Southeast Asia, its performance grew at a rate of

has declined, but among these domestic companies in Japan, it has still achieved quite dazzling growth! Last year, its stock price not only did not fall, but also grew by 5%! Sega Corporation is currently riding a wave of success.

At that time, could it be that something was going to happen? If so, why didn't Uda Naka inform him?

"Hmm..." Fang Mingyuan laughed with enlightenment. He understood that 80% of the time, Sega Co., Ltd. had already received the news. Sony Co., Ltd. will launch the Playstation 2 game console in the first half of next year. For these senior executives of Sega Co., Ltd.

This has created a lot of pressure! Although Sega Co., Ltd. has not slowed down the development of new consoles in the past two years, from the current point of view, it seems that Sony Co., Ltd. is taking the lead! Moreover, the world's home game console industry has been

It is rumored that Microsoft intends to enter, which undoubtedly puts great psychological pressure on the senior executives of Sega Corporation!

"Have you figured out the reason?" Seeing the obvious smile on Fang Mingyuan's lips, Lin Rong said in surprise. In such a short time, Fang Mingyuan actually found the problem? She is now Fang Mingyuan's personal assistant, so she naturally knows

, in the past two years, Fang Mingyuan's attention has not been on Sega Co., Ltd. Even the gamestation company, he only checks the game development progress and the company's sales once a month. Fortunately, the gamestation company is very powerful, with the help of

With the economic growth weak, the national income of various countries has generally not grown, or even experienced negative growth. In order to reduce social expenses, many people have chosen to play games at home, and sales revenue has increased significantly.

"It's probably because of this!" Fang Mingyuan snapped his fingers and said, "Sister Lian, don't worry, let the east wind and north wind blow wildly. We are sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai. No one can destroy us.

How about it!" Fang Mingyuan does have this confidence. Nowadays, the three major consoles in Japan's home game industry all have games produced by Gamestation, and most of them are high-quality products. As long as you grasp Gamestation, you will be the home game industry in the future.

The four giants must give themselves face!

What's more, I not only own shares in Sega Corporation, I am also the third largest individual shareholder of Microsoft!

While she was talking, Lin Rong's cell phone rang. Lin Rong only glanced at it and couldn't help laughing - this is about Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here! (To be continued...)
