My Age of Investment

"Hehehe~, where has Darren gone? Aren't I just staying here and staying well? Where else can I go!"

Xia Jingxing was sitting on the sofa, holding a Fuxing tablet computer, browsing the comments and messages of silly netizens on his Facebook account, and laughing.

Topics and discussions about why he disappeared from Facebook’s shareholder list have not stopped in recent days.

Conspiracy theories were rampant for a while. Some said he was squeezed out by Christina, others said he was suppressed by the US authorities and had to sell off his shares, and some said he was not optimistic about Facebook's development prospects. Cash out...

In short, many people are curious about this question.

Of course, there is also a group of white supremacists who are celebrating. They believe that Darren Summer is gone and Facebook finally belongs to the great United States.

In response to these rumors on the Internet, many financial experts and scholars have come forward to analyze them.

Most of the results of their analysis are that Darren Xia is really out this time. Even if he still holds part of Facebook indirectly through Vision Capital, the proportion is not too large to exert control and significant influence on Facebook. force.

Compared to expert analysis, the public and the media actually prefer to get answers from Facebook and Xia Jingxing.

Since Facebook is in the silent period of its listing, it has refused all visiting reporters on the grounds that it is not convenient for interviews.

Because Facebook’s reasons for rejection were well-founded, the reporter had no choice but to look for a breakthrough from Xia Jingxing.

But they couldn't find Xia Jingxing for several days, as if he had disappeared from the world.

Some reporters ran to China unwilling to give up, thinking that Xia Jingxing was hiding across the sea, but this was doomed to be in vain.

The reason why Xia Jingxing decided to avoid reporters was that he wanted to keep his ears clean and wanted to lure the snake out of its hole.

…

Suddenly there was a roar of a car engine downstairs. Xia Jingxing stood up and walked to the window. He lifted up the curtain and took a look. It was Liu Hai driving back.

Liu Hai got out of the car quickly and quickly walked into the villa.

A minute later, Liu Hai came to the second floor, looked at Xia Jingxing who was holding a tablet and playing games, and said with a smile: "You are safe hiding here, everything is in chaos outside."

"There can be no chaos."

Xia Jingxing didn't even raise his head, his arms shook left and right to control the tablet, and he concentrated on driving the kart in the game over one obstacle after another.

“I was just bored and checked out the comments on my Facebook account, and there were hundreds of thousands of them, all asking me about Facebook’s equity.”

Liu Hai sat down on the sofa opposite Xia Jingxing and replied, "It shows that the public is still very concerned about this issue."

"The word "care" is overused, curiosity is more accurate. If you are not a relative or a friend, what reason do you have to care about me? It's just chasing hot topics."

Xia Jingxing smiled and put away the tablet and threw it on the coffee table.

Liu Hai smiled and said, "Anyway, the topic of this matter has been stirred up."

"By the way, have you monitored any interesting remarks or news?"

Xia Jingxing looked at Liu Hai with a smile. He had been hiding in the villa named after Liu Hai for a few days, but he also did not neglect to observe the outside world. Liu Hai was the detective he sent out to find out the news. member.

"I was about to report this to you."

Liu Hai moved his body, sat upright and said: "Some powerful financial media are looking for clues, and they have focused on the Rockefeller family, Enoch Fund, Gao Ling Capital and three other hedge funds.

According to Facebook’s public financing information, these six institutions are not present. "

Xia Jingxing smiled faintly. He had been mentally prepared for this and didn't take it too seriously. Since the media wanted to investigate, let them investigate. Many things were destined to be unclear because there were people above.

"Any more?"

Liu Hai replied: "No, Daxia Capital's business intelligence department has only monitored these messages for the time being.

There were other news, such as the emotional dispute between you and Kristina, and the puppy sleeping at the home of a Hollywood female star, but none of them caused much trouble. "

The corner of Xia Jingxing's mouth twitched slightly. The little dog was living a good life, and it was a waste of money.

"Is there any news exposing Enoch's identity?"

Xia Jingxing was most concerned about this. He seriously doubted that those behind the scenes would make a fuss about this matter.

"No!" Liu Hai shook his head quickly.

Xia Jingxing frowned slightly. He had already exposed his flaw. Why didn't those people take action? Did they think the time was not yet ripe?

"Okay, I understand, just keep staring."

After that, Xia Jingxing stood up, twisted his stiff neck, and said with a smile, "After waiting for so long, it's time to go out and do some activities."

Liu Hai quickly put away the smile on his face and asked seriously: "Didn't we promise to lure the snake out of its hole?"

"That's true! But if the snakes don't show up anymore, then we have to be more proactive."

A strange smile appeared on Xia Jingxing's face. He was really a cowardless person. He didn't dare to let go even after he grabbed the handle.

Since you won't set this fire, then I will! At least you can still take some initiative.

…………

Oakland, Oracle Arena.

Nearly 20,000 fans wore uniform golden basketball uniforms. Looking around, the entire venue seemed to be a golden ocean.

As soon as Ivanka stepped into the museum, she was infected by the fanaticism at the scene.

"This is such a great atmosphere! Darren, I think your hundreds of millions of dollars were well spent."

"It's more than a few hundred million dollars!"

Xia Jingxing glanced at the Oracle advertising logo hanging on the big screen in the center of the stadium and smiled coldly, "Larry Ellison has already told the Warriors to get out next season and not to use their arena anymore."

"ah!"

Ivanka opened her red lips slightly and said in surprise: "Didn't Oracle sign a ten-year home arena use agreement with the Warriors?"

"That old bastard Larry Ellison has torn up the contract. He would rather pay a liquidated damages than see my property continue to run wild on his territory."

Speaking of this, Xia Jingxing showed a hint of disdain on his lips. Larry Ellison also had a real temper. In order to embarrass his enemy, he would kill a thousand enemies and suffer a thousand losses.

"What will the Warriors do next?" Ivanka asked with concern.

"The new stadium is already under construction and will be ready next year at the latest. In the meantime, let's find a stadium to transition to! It won't be a big deal."

Xia Jingxing said nonchalantly that Larry Ellison thought he could be disgusted by such a small trick. It was a joke. He also wanted to thank Oracle for sponsoring a large amount of funds for the construction of the new arena.

While the two were talking, they walked up the steps to the seats in the first row. Four white bodyguards with big shoulders and round waists were divided into two groups, guarding them one after another.

Today, Ivanka is wearing an improved blue and white porcelain cheongsam with strong Chinese elements. Her hourglass figure is fully displayed, her proud breasts are raised high, and the high slit design frees up her long legs for walking. It's full of charm.

Soon, some fans noticed that this team had a great appearance on the field.

"Look, it's Daeron! The new boss of the Warriors!"

"Wow, who is that white girl next to him? She looks like a supermodel."

"Didn't Darren sell his shares in Facebook? Why is he still so happy?"

"He has a lot of money. Even if he doesn't have shares in Facebook, he is still a world-class super rich man."

…

The appearance of Xia Jingxing and Ivanka caused quite a stir among the fans.

Many fans who had originally sat down to watch the game stood up, ready to take a close look at the world's fourth richest man.

Most people's attention was focused on Xia Jingxing, because not many people knew Ivanka, the upstart princess from New York, and not many people knew her outside New York.

However, Ivanka's exotic dress and hot figure still added a lot of points to her. She made a group of gentlemen drool at the sight, and secretly cursed at the same time for being such a pussy...

The camera set up in the venue immediately changed its target and showed a close-up of Xia Jingxing and Ivanka. Their faces were projected onto the big screen in the venue.

Xia Jingxing smiled and waved to the camera as a greeting.

Ivanka seemed to enjoy the feeling of being in the spotlight. She held Xia Jingxing's arm tightly with one hand and raised her other hand high to wave to the camera. Her face was filled with a happy smile, giving her a sense of déjà vu at a wedding.

In fact, Ivanka thinks so too.

God was merciful, and she finally managed to see the moonlight when the clouds cleared.

This was the first time Xia Jingxing had brought her out in public. This feeling of being surrounded by happiness was really difficult to express in words.

The two of them were like walking on a catwalk. Under the gaze of countless eyes, they stepped on countless steps and finally reached the first row.

There are usually a dozen seats in the first row, and the ticket price for each seat is as high as nearly 20,000 US dollars. They have always been reserved for celebrities and celebrities.

As the owner of the Warriors, Xia Jingxing notified the team early on to reserve the two best positions for him.

Rick Wirtz, the new president and chief operating officer of the Warriors, and Xia Jingxing's sports industry investment adviser, Chamath, led several executives to welcome Xia Jingxing and Ivanka to their seats with smiles on their faces. I chatted with the boss and his female companion again.

"Rick, Chamath, you have managed the team well. I think today's attendance is much higher than last year."

When faced with the boss's praise, Chamas didn't take any credit and put all the credit on Rick, praising the great talent he recruited from the NBA.

Xia Jingxing looked at Rick Wirtz carefully, and it was with his approval that Chamas recruited this person to serve as the president of the Warriors.

The Warriors in the previous life experienced a big rebound under the management of this new president, from a bottom team that could not make the playoffs to a majestic team that won three NBA championships in four years.

Xia Jingxing doesn't pay too much attention to his sports industry. As long as the competitive performance rises steadily, the commercial value continues to increase, and the most important thing is "not insulting China", he doesn't want to get involved too much in other things and leaves the focus to Just let a professional do it.

After praising Rick Wirtz, Xia Jingxing asked about the construction of the new stadium.

"The fans are quite resistant to this. After all, the new arena is built in downtown San Francisco, which means that fans in Oakland now have to drive half an hour to get to the new arena to watch the game.

Moreover, the new arena is expensive, and many fans are worried that ticket prices will rise. "

Xia Jingxing listened patiently and asked casually: "Then how did you appease the fans?"

"There is no appeasement, because I think results can convince the fans more."

Xia Jingxing laughed at this, "You're right. No matter how many explanations you have, it would be more convincing to win a championship."

Rick Wirtz thought that his boss wanted to win the championship this season, and he suddenly felt a little embarrassed. He carefully explained: "Dylan, our current lineup may not be strong enough to win the championship."

"I know this. I'm talking about next season and the next season. Don't worry, I will give you time to reform and I won't ask you to produce results immediately."

Hearing this, Rick Wirtz immediately felt much relieved. At the same time, he felt that Dalen Xia was indeed worthy of his reputation. He was indeed a person who did great things and had great courage. He was different from many bosses who were laymen and experts. He respected professionals like them. .

A few people were chatting, and soon the game started. The fans who had been paying attention to Xia Jingxing and were looking at the first row turned their attention to the stadium.

Xia Jingxing also stopped talking and began to concentrate on watching the football.

"Who is this? He looks quite young?"

Xia Jingxing soon noticed a young player with short shaved hair. He was small and could hit the ball pretty well.

Rick Wirtz introduced on the side: "This is Stephen Curry, the team that was drafted last year.

Even though he is short, only 1.88 meters tall, he is very talented in playing basketball.

In the game against the Clippers last month, he scored 36 points, 10 rebounds and 13 assists, setting a new career single-game scoring and assist record and scoring his first career triple-double.

At the same time, this is also the first triple-double of the 2009 rookie class, and he also became the sixth player in NBA history to score 30+10+10 in his rookie year..."

Xia Jingxing nodded secretly. He had just recognized the future basketball superstar. The reason why he asked this was because he wanted to know more about Curry.

Although he has only joined the team for less than a year, the superstar has already begun to show his talents.

Therefore, Xia Jingxing did not say much about how to train and use this player. Rick Wirtz and the management had their own plans and would not let the opponent's talent be buried.

During the intermission, a Sichuan Opera face-changing master invited from Xia Jingxing's hometown of Sichuan Province performed a face-changing performance that shocked Americans. The nearly 20,000 people present were stunned.

This was also Xia Jingxing's special request, asking the team management to increase the promotion of Chinese culture and at the same time make good friends and develop the Chinese market.

After the game, Xia Jingxing and Ivanka walked out of the arena surrounded by everyone.

As soon as he walked out of the door, flash lights almost blinded Xia Jingxing's eyes.

The reporter who received Xia Jingxing's whereabouts finally arrived.

Moreover, there were quite a lot of people who came, and a large area of ​​darkness blocked the entrance to the arena.

"Darren, did you really sell your Facebook shares?"

"Darren, is this beautiful lady your new girlfriend?"

"Darren, what do you think of Facebook's IPO?"

…

A large group of reporters held microphones and frantically rushed towards Xia Jingxing, while the arena security guards and Xia Jingxing's bodyguards tried their best to maintain order.

"Please be quiet, and please don't block the gate and affect other people's passage. Don't worry, I will answer everyone's questions."

After receiving Xia Jingxing's reply, the reporters moved away one after another and made way for a passage.

So, surrounded by bodyguards, Xia Jingxing and Ivanka walked to an open space and began to accept interviews and questions from reporters.

"Everyone's guess is correct! I have indeed sold my Facebook shares!"

A group of reporters were in an uproar at first, and then asked questions like crazy.
