Unparalleled True Technology

Chapter 260 Which method to use?

Wen Ming left Facebook headquarters after signing some agreements, and then returned to Tesla headquarters.

Both companies are located in Silicon Valley, which makes Wen Ming feel very convenient.

Why should Facebook's equity be handed over to Mark Zuckerberg?

After Sith came back, he asked a little puzzled: In my opinion, or in the eyes of most people in this world, you are much more genius than Mark Zuckerberg. And now you have You have a 26.6% stake in Facebook, plus those Facebook shareholders who are already on the same front as you, and other shareholders who are no longer able to compete for control of Facebook after being forced to agree to this capital increase transaction. I Think, you can definitely get control of Facebook.”

Even, when Tesla and Apple's profits can be paid out in the next stage, you can ask for another capital increase, and then dilute Mark Zuckerberg's equity as much as possible, so as to truly control Facebook. Purpose.

I think Facebook in your hands will definitely develop better than Mark Zuckerberg's.

Regarding Sith's blind self-confidence, Wen Ming is very dark in his heart, but he knows his own affairs, and his current achievements are directly related to the advanced technology he has mastered.

In fact, looking back at his decision-making and handling of things over the past year, there are still many unsatisfactory places.

The word genius should belong to Mark Zuckerberg.

My energy is limited. To develop a social networking site like Facebook, which aims to have 2 billion global users, the energy required is unimaginable.

Wen Ming explained: It is impossible for me to give up Apple and Tesla, and then focus on Facebook. In this case, why not hand over Facebook to his founder, Mark Zha, who can take Facebook to take off? What about Kerberg?

In Wen Ming's mind, 26.6% of Facebook's shares are completely enough, which means that after six years, he will be able to reap a net worth of 133 billion US dollars. And, that's just one investment by Facebook.

But he doesn't want to interfere too much with Facebook's development strategy. If Mark Zuckerberg has an opinion because of his interference, and the development of Facebook is not as good as the development of Facebook in another world, then the loss outweighs the gain.

Sith laughed and said, I thought you were omnipotent.

Wen Ming also laughed and said: Even God is not omnipotent,

How can I be omnipotent?

While talking, the two had already entered the Tesla headquarters, and Cage, who was waiting here, began to inquire curiously.

That is to say, you spent 10.05 billion US dollars on this trip?

Cage was dumbfounded after hearing what had happened. Even a fraction of 50 million US dollars is money that most people in the world cannot earn in their lifetime, let alone 10 billion US dollars in front of them?

Sith corrected: Not only that, because we will then have to work with Microsoft and Li Jiacheng's investment funds to determine how much they want to invest in Apple. What they get is not only a stock exchange, but also a chance to buy shares in Apple. .”

However, even if their current shareholding amount has not been determined, the 1 billion US dollars of Facebook shares they own are equivalent to being spent by us.

Cage took a deep breath and said emotionally: You spent 11 billion US dollars in less than a day when you went out. If there is no Wen Ming's name on this year's list of the world's richest people, I will definitely go find them talk to your boss.

Of course, what Cage said was a joke. More than one media publishes the list of the world's richest people every year. The famous ones are Fortune magazine and Forbes magazine. Compared with other media, the rankings of the world's richest people and the list of the world's top 500 companies published by these two magazines have much higher credibility.

But even an authoritative magazine like Fortune is not easy to calculate Wen Ming's current social status.

It's like when he bought the Facebook shares in the hands of Saverin and others, he gave a valuation of 50 billion U.S. dollars, but later when he increased the capital of Facebook, he gave a valuation of only 40 billion U.S. dollars.

Judging from the 26.6% of Facebook shares he currently holds, the difference between the two valuations is a $2.66 billion worth gap.

Under such circumstances, it was impossible to accurately calculate his real worth.

I actually don't want to be on the world's richest list.

Wen Ming laughed and said, What I hope most is that these companies can develop well.

So far, there are not many industries under Wen Ming’s name, only Jurassic Island, Apple, and Tesla. After owning so many shares in Facebook, he can also say that Facebook is his industry .

Cage said emotionally: Anyone can be proud of owning one of these properties under your name.

After discussing some follow-up work after Facebook’s capital increase, Cage talked about Tesla’s current dilemma.

Boss, now our Tesla production capacity has been affected.

When Cage talked about this topic, his expression was very serious.

When we signed contracts with those parts suppliers, the delivery date of parts fluctuated to a certain extent, and the floating cycle was about three days. However, now, those parts suppliers are supplying us When it comes to production, we always keep the delivery date on the deadline. In this way, our production capacity will be delayed by more than three days.”

Manufacturing a car is not done a little in a day. In Tesla's modern car manufacturing plant, the shape of a car is just passed through the production line once.

But the premise is that all parts are complete.

As long as one component is missing, the production of the entire vehicle will be affected.

Cage said: Our engineers suggested that we first use the production line to produce vehicles as much as possible. Those parts that are lacking will be manually assembled by engineers and technicians after the vehicle is roughly formed.

Wen Ming frowned and asked, Will it affect the quality of the vehicle if it is assembled manually?

Cage shook his head and said, It won't be affected, just like our car is broken and sent to a repair shop for repairs, they only need to replace the broken parts, and the car can be used as before. But in doing so, our production rate would drop.

Of course, the speed of labor cannot compare to the production line, otherwise, the so-called hand-made Rolls-Royce would not be so expensive.

Wen Ming asked, Is the risk assessment report out?

After hearing this question, Cage took out a report from his desk, handed it to Wen Ming and introduced: Because we have sold 20,000 Model-S in full, The sale has been stopped. Therefore, our previously estimated production capacity can fully meet the supply this time.”

But now, because of the delay of parts suppliers, even if we use manual assembly, there will be at least 1,000 Model-S that cannot be delivered on time.

Wen Ming briefly glanced at the risk assessment report, and felt a little relieved. There was only 1,000 vehicles that had to bear the risk of not being able to deliver on time, so I don't know how small.

You know, in addition to the 20,000 sold in full in two days, Tesla also needs to deliver 19,000 of the 25,000 Model-S previously ordered within this delivery cycle.

Added up, 39,000 Model-Ss need to be delivered within the cycle.

Cage continued: Now there are two ways to solve this problem.

The first way is to use the first batch of users who ordered Model-S. Because of our dissatisfaction with our marketing strategy this time, let them take the initiative to refund the deposit they paid. In this way, as long as 1,000 people refund With a deposit, we will be able to get through this crisis unharmed.

The second way is to formulate a compensation strategy, and then select 1,000 of our existing customers to communicate in advance. If they are willing to accept our compensation agreement, the delivery cycle will be extended by one week If we do, we will be able to get through this crisis unharmed.) !!
