Global Monopoly of Technology
Chapter 187:
The borrowing is so settled. Of course, Luo Sheng has funds to solve it. The offshore family trust fund now holds 1,675 shares of Blue Star Technology Group's shares, worth more than one billion US dollars. This can be sold at any time to cash out. .
However, he has other uses for this fund. He will definitely not move this money until it is absolutely necessary. Now he is increasing the value.
Time passed day by day. On July 28, Bluestar Technology Group officially released the second quarter audited financial report, which is one of the financial statements that Wall Street and investors are most concerned about.
According to the disclosed financial report, Bluestar Technology Group's total revenue in the second quarter of this year was 2.468 billion US dollars, a year-on-year increase of 328.4% compared with 576 million US dollars in the same period last year, and a quarter-on-quarter growth of 56.2% in the previous quarter. 'S performance once again exceeded the 5% of Wall Street analysts.
The operating profit in the second quarter reached 753 million US dollars, and the net profit was 427 million US dollars. The net profit increased by 72.87% month-on-month, far exceeding Wall Street analysts' 12% data.
As of the day of the financial report release, Bluestar Technology Group's free cash flow exceeded 1.5 billion U.S. dollars, excluding exchange rate changes equivalent to ¥ 12.2 billion.
In this fiscal quarter, Bluestar Technology Group's net profit per diluted share reached $ 0.39, and its performance was better than the previous fiscal quarter's $ 0.23, which slightly exceeded analyst expectations.
Affected by this, the share price of Bluestar Technology Group rose nearly 8% in Nasdaq after-hours trading that day, which means that the wealth of shareholders of Bluestar Technology Group has increased by about 7 billion US dollars, and the company's total market value has since It hit a record high, reaching 95.07 billion U.S. dollars, and the gap with Google was only 10 billion U.S. dollars, biting closer and closer.
Google's financial report has not been released, but it is almost the same.
Luo Sheng didn't care about these. On the second day after the disclosure of Bluestar Technology Group's second-quarter audited financial report, he sold more than 17 million shares at a time of $ 86.43 per share and cashed in another $ 1.5 billion.
Currently, he still holds 32736 million shares of Bluestar Technology Group.
It is worth mentioning that most of the shares held by Luo Sheng are restricted stocks. Except during the IPO, he had a cash opportunity of no more than 1.1 billion US dollars to establish his contribution to the company. The stocks have a limited sale period.
After the IPO cashed out, his shares were restricted for three months and three years. Within three months after the IPO was listed, none of his shares were tradable. After three months, 20% of his shares were tradable. And after three years, there was no blackout period for his stock.
After entering July, Luo Sheng can obviously cash out up to 20% of his shares, that is, 68.926 million shares can be circulated.
However, this time Luo Sheng only realized more than 17 million shares, which means that he personally reduced his holdings by 1.57%, and is still the largest shareholder of Bluestar Technology Group, holding 29.76% of the shares.
Just by holding the shares of Blue Star Technology, Luo Sheng's current value has reached 28.2 billion US dollars, and the other assets he has mastered, his value is more than 30 billion US dollars without any doubt.
His personal wealth is second only to Bill Gates and Warren Buffett, and he is the richest person with the fastest personal wealth growth rate in the world.
Luo Sheng cashed in $ 1.5 billion this time and entered his family fund. Qin Weimu once again bought the shares of Bluestar Technology through the operation of the offshore trust fund, because he believed that the company's market value would continue to rise.
By the end of July, the offshore fund had held more than 31.58 million shares of Bluestar Technology.
As the founder and head of the company, he still needs to explain to the outside world the huge capital of more than 1 billion US dollars, and Luo Sheng's explanation to the outside world is for personal investment and optimization of personal asset allocation.
In the case of the company's strong development momentum, no one will care, as long as he does not sell crazy, the market will not question and nervous.
And the outside world has also thought of another super rich, that is, the founder of Microsoft, Gates has successively sold off the Microsoft stock he holds for other investments over the years.
Obviously, most people outside the world think Luo Sheng is learning Gates's allocation of wealth.
...
In August, Luo Sheng returned to the Blue Star Technology Group for the last time during the period before the launch of the first product of the French Riviera.
On the weekend of August 6th, Bluestar Technology Group held a shareholder meeting today. All the major shareholders of the company all came to Sioux City.
This shareholder meeting voted on a major issue, and that was about the next financing action.
Bluestar Technology Group's IPO financing operation has not ended after the IPO, because the company's IPO financing operation was previously agreed to be split into three times.
Obviously, this is the second round of public offering.
At about 14:00 on the same day, Luo Sheng and the shareholders who attended the meeting also voted on this round of capital increase and stock expansion, raising 7.5 billion US dollars. Of course, the result was passed without a doubt. Luo Sheng alone voted more than one-third. The second majority voting right, but the actual result is 100% passed, it is a process, it has already been agreed.
In this round of financing of 7.5 billion US dollars, Blue Star Technology Group sold 7.5% of the equity for this purpose. Although the financing amount is extremely high, it is more than 5.6 billion US dollars in the IPO. However, the company's stock price has increased by nearly IPO. It was doubled, only a few additional shares were issued, and the proportion of equity transferred from financing was controlled within 10%.
With this huge amount of money, it means that Bluestar's cash flow will swell to a horrible amount of more than 9 billion U.S. dollars. Luo Sheng wants to acquire Sun Computer Sun Co., Ltd. and can cash directly without cross-shareholding. You can also reduce your shareholding with Wall Street once.
After completing this round of financing, the shares of the two co-founders of Bluestar Technology Group have also been relatively diluted.
Luo Sheng holds 27.53%
This also means that the shares of Bluestar Technology Group hit a record high, with the total market value exceeding the 100 billion US dollar mark for the first time in August, reaching 103.5 billion US dollars.
...
After the shareholders meeting was concluded, the financing was confirmed. Luo Sheng and the heads of the five largest investment banks held a closed meeting in a conference room of the company.
"Mr. Luo Sheng, I'm very curious why you rejected Lehman Investment Bank?" Paul Watson asked in the meeting room with interest at the moment.
Luo Sheng calmly said, simply: "This bank's financial leverage is too high and the risk is too great. It's not appropriate."
Paul Watson and others looked at each other and saw the doubts of the other party. What was the reason for rejection?
What does it have to do with your Bluestar technology?
However, after all, Lehman failed to come in, because Luo Sheng didn't agree with life or death, and even preferred to give up the financing.
That's okay, Lehman had to get out.
Jokingly, Luo Sheng doesn't want to give Lehman a chance to take a breath. This kind of thing may have variables even after an hour or two, and the result he wants is that the Lehman Brothers company must explode.
"Everyone, let's not talk about Lehman. Okay, let's talk about the underwriters this time." Luo Sheng did not want to be more entangled in this topic. This group of people is more savvy than one, and there is absolutely nothing to say Good thing.
Quickly returned to the subject.
The final result was that the underwriters of the financing were Merrill Lynch, Morgan Stanley, Citi, and Deutsche Bank. The Goldman Sachs Group did not appear on the list of underwriters.
You know, before that, from the early development of Blue Star Technology to the market, Goldman Sachs has been among the high-profile supporters.
This is the result of a negotiated distribution of interests between the major capital consortiums on Wall Street. Only they know the inside information. Goldman Sachs is no longer in this list of underwriters because it was the third round of financing, which is the third place of Bluestar Technology. The sub-financing was exclusively contracted by Goldman Sachs.
Now is not the time to reveal the mystery, we have to wait half a year.
Goldman Sachs and other Wall Street capital groups will secretly prepare for operation in it. About 2007, the North American S & P index will include Blue Star Technology Group. In terms of amount, the S & P 500 index is in North America and the world. Among the funds, the index with the most reference.
Once Bluestar Technology Group is included, many funds will automatically purchase Bluestar Technology's stock in the proportion indicated by the S & P 500 index, and according to the usual practice of other stocks being included in the index, the company's stock price will be Soared about 10 ~ 20%.
Judging from the volume of Blue Star Technology Group's current market value of 100 billion yuan, the benefits are not ordinary. The speculators must arbitrage the time difference after receiving this news. There is a speculative transaction in hedge funds. The fund is called an event-driven fund.
Obviously, this is also very beneficial to Bluestar Technology itself. Preparations have already begun. Luo Sheng has already planned and actively prepared to use this favorable opportunity to complete the third financing.
Once Standard & Poor's announces the news next year, Bluestar Technology will immediately raise a third round of $ 4 billion, which is exclusively contracted by Goldman Sachs.
The IPO split three times before and after the financing will reach an astonishing amount of 17 billion US dollars, and the total amount is only diluted by less than 20% of the shares, and will undoubtedly become the most successful listing action in history.
And this cash will also give Bluestar technology sufficient financial resources to build a super data center, deploy cloud computing services, and have abundant cash to spend the winter when the future financial crisis erupts. It will be with the technology giants of Microsoft, Yahoo, Google and Apple. Can also occupy a favorable position.
...
It was mid-August, and some details of the second round of financing of Bluestar Technology emerged, which immediately occupied the headlines of the world news today.
Major mainstream media at home and abroad are racing to report, and everyone in the industry has quickly raised their eyes when they see the amount of this round of financing.
"What the hell? The people on Wall Street are crazy? Raise $ 7.5 billion and over 60 billion soft sister coins. What the **** is this?"
"I can only say that this is really a bit exaggerated."
"It is indeed 'L-BAT'. The value of this financing amount alone has thrown away more than 95% of domestic Internet companies."
"This is a bit sloppy."
"Blue Star Technology Bull Pen, never thought that there would be a domestic technology company that could stand in the world's top ranks, and compete with giants such as Microsoft and Google, bull pen (broken sound)-!"
"According to foreign news reports, the market value of Bluestar Technology Group has reached 103.75 billion US dollars, equivalent to more than 830 billion soft sister coins, and it is China's first technology company with a market value of over 100 billion US dollars."
"In the future, if someone asks Microsoft, Google, IBM in North America, Samsung, LG in South Korea, Sony or Toshiba in Japan, what does our country have? There are Bluestar Technology, Weiwei and the Blue Coast!"
"Google has been embarrassing recently. Bluestar Technology continues this trend, and I'm afraid it will soon surpass Google."
...
The netizens who eat melon on the Internet are also hotly discussed, and similar topics are being discussed in the Weibo and Post Bar forums.
Before the rise of Bluestar Technology, no one dared to think that there could even be a technology company in China that was comparable to a North American technology giant like Microsoft, Google, Apple or Dell.
Blue Star Technology has accomplished this achievement in an incredible way, and has become the pride of countless people. Luo Sheng has become an idol worshipped by countless young people, especially a group of young entrepreneurs who regard it as life. A beacon of guidance, a goal of struggle.
To be able to create such a fabulous achievement in just a few years is definitely a story full of blood and inspiration.
His achievements are undoubtedly affecting a whole generation.
The overall situation of financing has been decided. This time there are more than 600 subscribers. Luo Sheng has not paid much attention. Zhang Bowen is dealing with the specifics of financing. The subscribers are mainly the choice of the four major underwriters.
What surprised the media is that Goldman Sachs, which has always been a high-profile supporter, was not on the list of underwriters, and caused a lot of media speculation for a while.
But apparently, the specific reason for this is that it is impossible for the outside world to know why Goldman Sachs was absent within half a year.
The total amount of financing of 7.5 billion US dollars is undoubtedly an astronomical figure. The interest generated every day alone is a huge sum. It is also impossible for this fund to enter the account of Bluestar Technology Group in a short time. The time will be fully paid around the end of this year.
Many people in China can't figure out why Blue Star Technology Group needs to raise such a huge sum when it is so rich. Most people think it is completely unnecessary. Blue Star Technology already has more than one billion US dollars in cash flow and its performance is extremely eye-catching. Revenue for a quarter now exceeds $ 2.4 billion.
If they knew Luo Sheng's strategic layout, they would not think so. Just building a super data center on a global scale is an astronomical digital investment. This financing was intended to be used to acquire Sun Microsystems and Sun Microsystems. Used during the financial crisis.
It is best to be able to acquire Sun Microsystems. If it can't be acquired, it can only be so. This money can't lie still, that is of course to lay out the cloud computing service sector.
As long as the money is in your pocket, how to use contingency.
After entering mid-September, the Cote d'Azur companies that have been immersed for more than three years are no longer low-key, 1.5 billion is about 180 million US dollars of the announced budget allocated, and began to warm up globally.
Time passed quickly, and finally came on September 27th, the day of the first product launch conference of the French Riviera.
On the same day, invited media and industry insiders rushed in. The well-built conference venue can accommodate more than 1,200 people. The total number of people invited this time is about 1,000, including two hundred. Many media, including dozens of mainstream media from abroad.
At about half past eight, the arrangement in front of the stage was basically proper. Luo Sheng was in front of the stage. There was a huge screen in front of the seat. On the right side of the stage was a workbench with a bar-type machine. Products for the conference.
It will be used for demonstration, and the interface of the mobile phone can also be synchronized to the giant screen.
The time passed by one minute and one second. At about nine o'clock, the venue was officially opened. Some media people and industry practitioners who had arrived early also entered the conference site.
The first product launch event of the French Riviera company, the lineup is not super luxurious, but it will not be small, after all, the person who hosted the launch event was Luo Sheng, who is known as the "Internet giant" in the industry.
This time from the Internet cross-border to the hardware field of consumer electronics, the outside world is also very curious whether he can do another miracle.
However, most western media came with a mentality of preparing to read Luo Sheng's joke, because they really wanted to see this happen. Luo Sheng was too successful. If he can fail once, it is definitely a very trafficking news. , And the West is more beloved.
Time passed by minute by minute ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ The media reporters who came to the scene seemed to look at long guns and short cannons. They successively adjusted the equipment and focused the lens on the stage in front. Many people in the industry took their seats. Next, a work-specific notebook is placed on the thigh and opened.
The meeting place was a bit noisy, and those who had been present whispered to each other. Some European and American industry people had a calm expression on their faces.
In their eyes, Luo Sheng and the Cote d'Azur entered the consumer electronics industry. They are purely novices. They acknowledge Luo Sheng's strength in the Internet industry, but this does not mean that he can also have strong strength when he crosses the border to consumer mobile terminal equipment. .
At around 9:40, the lights at the conference site went out, and the audience seating area seemed dim. Most of the light sources were focused on the stage in front.
The sound of discussion at the scene also disappeared.
