My Age of Investment

   Chapter 714

After sitting for a while, Xia Jingxing asked Shang Yang Niu to leave the restaurant and get into the car parked on the side of the road.

  As soon as the two got in the car, the foreign girl put her hands on her chest and said with a cold face: "Daren, are you really going to help Zuckerberg? You forget what he did before?"

Xia Jingxing glanced at a foreign girl. It is rare to see a foreign girl so angry. She is quite cute. She pinched her tender face and smiled and said, "There is no antagonism between us and him. China There is an old saying that is well said, called repaying grievances with virtue."

The foreign girl slapped Xia Jingxing’s paws, and said with no good air: "This is the United States, not China. He will not be influenced by your noble character. Even if he succeeds in the future, he will not thank you, but will just treat it as yes. The results of his own efforts."

   After all, the foreign girl turned her face aside, not to see Xia Jingxing, but to see the scenery passing by the window.

  She basically doesn't interfere in Xia Jingxing's career, but her boyfriend actually intends to help Xiao Mazi this time, which makes her feel very upset, and some words are unpleasant.

  The foreign girl still has the frank and straightforward side of the Texas girl.

  This can be seen from the fact that she must change the server provider.

  Xia Jingxing gently put her hand on the foreign girl's shoulder, and straightened the foreign girl's body with her back to him, and looked at the foreign girl's bulging appearance, a little to laugh.

   "Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore. I was actually joking with you. I have a sense for these things."

  Looking at Xia Jingxing who kept blinking at herself, the foreign girl became suspicious, and suddenly felt that she was overly worried, because the person in front of her was never a pedantic person.

  "What do you think of them?" The foreign girl was suddenly curious about this matter.

  Xia Jingxing raised her head, smiling without saying a word.

  You still dare to hold back?

  The foreign girl directly took the black tiger to his heart.

   Now, Xia Jingxing finally became honest, clutching her chest and whispering to the foreign girl.

  After listening, the foreign girl couldn't help but laughed, and asked: "Can this work?"

   "You have to try it before you know it."

  The foreign girl nodded, and finally stopped struggling with this question.

  …………

  …………

  A few days later.

  The details of the Facebook round C financing agreement were thoroughly finalized after repeated consultations and confirmations by the following people.

  Followingly, Facebook signed a formal financing agreement with Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley.

  Facebook announced the news to the outside world.

  The two major investment banks invested 1 billion US dollars to invest in Facebook. This big news has been interpreted by the media in various ways.

Some media speculate that Facebook may be making the final preparations for the listing. You must know that Google has been listed after six years of operation, and that Facebook has been in operation for a full four years. Compared with Google in the same period, the momentum is better than that of Google in the same period. , It's time to step up to a new level.

  Also praised by the media, the value of Facebook has been affirmed by the two largest investment banks in the world, and its gold content has greatly increased.

  Amidst the pieces of praise, Facebook completely got rid of the negative impact caused by the lawsuit some time ago, and its momentum has greatly increased.

  Of course, there are many people who say sour words.

  Fox TV Station and other newspapers controlled by news corporations antagonize the mainstream media, questioning the existence of a bubble in Facebook’s valuation.

  The reference they chose was also Google.

   When Google went public in 2004, its market value was only 23 billion U.S. dollars, but its annual revenue was close to 3 billion U.S. dollars and its profit was close to 300 million U.S. dollars.

   Facebook focused its efforts on expansion in the early days, and its advertising business started late. Although its revenue has reached 500 million US dollars in the past year, its profit has been negative.

  Comparing financial data, Facebook is indeed inferior to Google in 2004.

  When News Corp. presented the evidence, many people in the US financial circle chose to follow up and sang empty Facebook.

  News Corp. and a group of people in the financial circle jumped up and down, directly angering Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, and questioning Facebook's overvaluation. That is not indirectly saying that they are stupid and that their business has lost money.

  So, the two major investment banks issued public statements, unswervingly optimistic about Facebook, and chanted the slogan of “reaching a valuation of 100 billion yuan in three years” to Facebook.

  The statements of the two major investment banks really stunned many people, and immediately caused a lot of controversy.

At this time, there are very few giants with hundreds of billions of dollars, they are all decades or even hundreds of years of established companies, such as Citi, General Motors, Bank of America, etc., even Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley have a market value of about 60 billion US dollars. Shout out the slogan of 100 billion market value.

  This milestone, looking at the global Internet, only Yahoo has ever reached it, but it was very short, and it has long since fallen.

  However, this kind of great controversy also brought great attention to Facebook.

  A title of “World's Most Valuable Startup Company/Unlisted Internet Company”, which was firmly put on the head of Facebook.

  The two major investment banks used their own methods to help Facebook hype.

  Xia Jing acted and walked away, hiding her merit and fame deeply.

   I ignored the comments from the outside world and did not go to the Facebook company. Instead, Zhang Chenguang drove him to the Silicon Valley office of Envision Capital.

  As soon as she got out of the elevator, Xia Jingxing saw her bangs standing at the door of the company waiting for her.

   "Jingxing, congratulations! YouTube and Facebook have completed a new round of financing, and your ranking in Forbes will rise again."

   Liu Hai wears a new suit tailored appropriately, and his hairstyle has been changed from the original wretched head to a spirited head with a slant back. The whole temperament has changed a lot, and he has become more and more successful.

  Xia Jingxing patted Liu Hai’s shoulder cordially, and walked towards the company with the latter.

  When he walked to the open-plan office area, Xia Jingxing found that more than half of the workstations had been vacated.

  Noting Xia Jingxing’s gaze, Liu Hai explained: “Now we have all moved away. Only Ricky and his department are left in Silicon Valley. A dozen people use the 1,500 square meter office, which is too extravagant.”

  Xia Jingxing nodded, Liu Hai and Jiang Ping had asked him for advice on the relocation.

  The scale of asset management of the two hedge funds, Xiaoman and Lixia, is getting larger and larger, and the number of manpower required for trading has also begun to increase, and higher requirements have been placed on the level of staff.

  After some consideration, they decided to move the entire secondary market department to New York and to Wall Street to start a financial battle at close range.

  Naturally, Xia Jingxing has no opinion on this, because if Envision Capital wants to become a big dragon, it must go to the big pond.

  "It won’t take long before the empty space here will be filled, and other floors may even be rented out because Andrew and the others are moving here."

   Liu Hai nodded, “The business incubator and the VC business can just be connected. It’s quite appropriate for them to move here.”

  The two talked as they walked. Without saying a few words, Liu Hai took Xia Jingxing into a conference room.

  In the conference room, Jiang Ping and Ricky were chatting. They saw Xia Jingxing coming, and they greeted them one after another.

  After a few words of greeting, a few people sat down and began to report to their work.

  　 I have a sore waist and back pain. I have been in a bad condition these past two days. I will update it today. I would like to say sorry to everyone.
