Unparalleled True Technology

Chapter Ninety-Two: Roy Calls

Wen Ming and Teresa Roy have a bet that if he fails to sell 30 million iPhones within one year and one month, then all the Facebook shares in his hands will be transferred to Teresa Roy.

At that time, Wen Ming still needs to pay the final payment of 8 million iPhones.

In this bet, Teresa Roy paid 460 million U.S. dollars and a one-year waiting time. So far, the value of Facebook shares in Wen Ming's hands is only 500 million US dollars.

On the surface, Teresa Roy is at a disadvantage, because it is impossible for 460 million US dollars to become 500 million US dollars in a year. You know, Wen Ming promised a benefit of 300 million US dollars at the beginning, but Teresa Roy did not choose to accept it, but chose to accept a benefit of only 40 million US dollars.

But we should not only look at the present when looking at the problem, but look at it from the perspective of development.

Facebook's valuation can be said to change every month. Each month's valuation has increased by more than 5% from the previous month. There is no problem at all. Please note that this kind of growth is similar to the growth of revolving interest, and it is continuously improved every month on the basis of copying the previous month.

One year and one month after the official implementation of the bet, that is, around September 2010, to what extent will Facebook's valuation increase?

In fact, from the end of 2010 to the beginning of 2011 in another world, Facebook's valuation had reached 50 billion US dollars. Based on this valuation, Wen Ming's 2.1% of Facebook shares are worth $1.05 billion.

It took more than a year for 460 million US dollars to exchange for 1.05 billion US dollars. Of course, Teresa Roy made a lot of money in this business, and Wen Ming lost a lot.

More importantly, Facebook's shares will become increasingly difficult to buy. When it goes public in 2012, Facebook's market value will exceed 100 billion U.S. dollars in a short period of time, and 2.1% of the shares will exceed 2.1 billion U.S. dollars.

At that time, Teresa Roy invested 460 million U.S. dollars for three years, which was exchanged for 2.1 billion U.S. dollars.

Therefore, capitalists have never been kind, and the most eye-catching goal in their eyes is still profit.

Sith said: "Facebook is constantly growing, and there is absolutely no problem breaking through the market value of 100 billion after listing. Teresa Roy definitely has reasons to stumbling us for this goal."

Said, Sith sighed.

"When you wanted to bet against him, I disagreed. Now it seems that we are really passive."

It's not that Wen Ming never doubted Teresa Roy, on the contrary, the first target of his doubts was Teresa Roy.

But because Teresa Roy didn't have any influence in China, he quickly got rid of this suspicion. But when Sisdo believed that the market value of Facebook's listing would definitely exceed 100 billion U.S. dollars in a few years, his doubts about Teresa Roy became even higher.

A business that can earn more than 2 billion US dollars, even if it pays 1 billion US dollars to trip Apple, can guarantee enough benefits.

"I think he'll see value in Apple."

Wen Ming frowned and said: "Because I once promised that if he wants, he can buy shares in Apple at any time. As long as he has how much money, he can buy as many shares in Apple."

Sith smiled helplessly, and said: "You are still too naive. If your offer to him is not 150 billion US dollars, I believe he will not hinder our iPhone sales in order to become a shareholder of Apple, or even , is to help us increase iPhone sales."

"However, you not only proposed a valuation of 150 billion U.S. dollars, but also limited how much money he can buy. I want to ask, how much money can he have?"

Siston paused for a moment, but did not get a reply from Wen Ming.

He continued: "Even if he liquidates all his properties, he can only liquidate about 5 billion US dollars in cash. After all, worth is not the same as cash, and it is very difficult to cash out."

"And 5 billion US dollars can only buy 3.3% of our company's shares, so how useful is it?"

150 billion U.S. dollars is difficult even for listed companies, let alone Apple, which has not yet been listed?

Wen Ming knew that Apple's future market value could exceed 800 billion U.S. dollars, so he set so many conditions. But Teresa Roy didn't know, even if Wen Ming told Teresa Roy, people wouldn't believe it.

If Teresa Roy can be sure, she will definitely sell all her property and put it all into Apple, but Teresa Roy can't be sure of this.

Wen Ming felt that his brain was hurting a little, and being able to obtain the technological knowledge in the movies of another world made him often think that he would become a god-blocking and killing existence. But now, although he has made some achievements, he is encountering more and more difficulties.

How long do you need to suffer?

After being silent for a while, Wen Ming said: "Don't worry, if the Huaxia market is really unable to sell in a short period of time, at worst, I will sell the Facebook shares. My loss is actually not that big, because the future of our Apple company The market value will definitely be higher than that of Facebook.”

Sith nodded helplessly. All they can do now is to keep up with the progress of Huaxia's certification of iPhones. Moreover, even if they know who is tripping them up, so what?

It is impossible to directly ask the killer to kill the other party like in some movie novels.

"I'm just worried that you are under too much pressure. Since you believe that the market value of our company will definitely exceed that of Facebook in the future, then I don't have to worry too much."

Sith communicated with Wen Ming some more questions, and left Wen Ming's office.

At this time, the sky had already darkened, and Wen Ming was sitting alone in the office without even turning on the lights.

He really doesn't have much pressure, because starting tomorrow, the iPhone will be officially released, that is to say, starting tomorrow, his Apple company will follow the development path of Jobs' Apple company.

Although the time to get on the car is a bit late, it will not affect the future market value of Apple, because Apple in another world will mainly rely on the iPhone in the later stage, and the development of several other products is also a challenge for Wen Ming. A very easy thing to do.

As long as there is no problem with the sales of iPhones, he has enough funds to complete the "resurrection" dinosaur project and save his own life.

However, even without this pressure, he still felt aggrieved.

Ever since he crossed, he has suffered many disasters. After finally getting better, he encountered a big hole, and he didn't know who dug it.

"Don't let me know who you are, or..."

Wen Ming gritted his teeth and said, "No, you must let me know who you are, otherwise, I will take revenge on many innocent people."

I would rather kill a mistake than let it go.

Wen Ming has never been an upright gentleman, nor would he consider himself a saint of morality. On the contrary, Wen Ming in his previous life has done many immoral things.

For example, when he was an intermediary, some clients went directly past him to find the homeowner to make a deal after they were optimistic about the house. Thinking that he took the client to look at the house for a month, Wen Ming ran to block the keyhole of the door of the house that he planned to use as a new house.

It's not just blocking once, but blocking until the other party pays the intermediary fee.

It seems that Wen Ming's behavior is unreasonable, but in fact? If you don’t want to pay an intermediary fee, don’t look for an intermediary, and clearly mark the price of the things you like and I like, and if you suddenly don’t like it, then I definitely don’t want to either.

(ps: It's funny to think about it now, because this is something I did... cover my face.)

When Wen Ming was thinking about who it was, his phone rang, and the caller was... Teresa Roy.
