Chapter 114

June 26.

In the exhibition center of UPN TV network, Zhuke, chairman of Golden Dawn entertainment group, and Jeff Bezos, President of Amazon, formally signed an equity replacement agreement in the presence of American media.

Zucker's ICQ shares, the shareholding ratio dropped from 35% to 20%, with 15% of the ICQ shares, replaced by 8% of Amazon's shares.

The equity swap does not involve cash transactions, but the equity value involved is no less than US $40 million.

Zhuke has become a shareholder of Amazon listed company!

Individual shareholding ratio, second only to Bezos, became the second largest individual shareholder of Amazon;

The proportion of equity in Amazon's individual shareholders and investment banks ranks the fourth, next only to Citibank and FedEx. It has entered the board of directors of Amazon and become a member of the executive shareholders.

After the signing of the contract, it was naturally a question from a group of reporters.

"Hello, Mr. Bezos, I'm Chris madordo, a reporter from the Wall Street Journal. I'd like to ask you why you chose to exchange ICQ shares with Mr. ward?"

A female journalist in her 30s first asked.

The Wall Street Journal is one of the most famous financial newspapers in the United States. With a hundred years of history, it is famous even in the world;

Chris madordo, a reporter from the Wall Street Journal, who attended the signing of the agreement, is not an ordinary person. Buffett, Soros, Bill Gates, Larry Ellison and other financial and Internet tycoons have all been interviewed by her.

"Cough!"

Jeff Bezos confidently stood on the podium and said, "Chris, this is the second time we have met. I can tell you and all the media reporters that Amazon mall is optimistic about the development of ICQ because it has taken a stake in ICQ."

"At present, ICQ has become the largest instant messaging software in the United States and even in North America. Even in Europe, Asia, Australia and other places, the number of users is increasing day by day."

"In that case, why don't I join in?"

"As we all know, Amazon mall is the largest online book trading mall in North America, with a large number of books. Every day, people from all over the United States buy their favorite books through our Amazon mall."

"Why don't we let people from all over the world buy books through Amazon?"

The voice fell, and the whole room was boiling.

Global strategy!

Yes, all the media reporters present at this moment understand Amazon's big appetite, it is to become a global Internet giant!

You should know that in the 1990s, whether in the United States or in other countries, once a company was named "multinational company", its stock price was naturally expected, and its market value soared.

Now, as soon as Bei bald's speech comes out, his shares in Nasdaq will soar a lot tomorrow.

"Bei bald, his mother is really a smart guy, no wonder the future of Amazon's single stock is so expensive." There was a movement in Zhuk's mind.

The value of Amazon's single stock is the most expensive stock in the world in the future.

The value of a single share is more than $2000;

Of course, its single share value is much more expensive than that of Microsoft and apple.

First, investors are optimistic;

Second, the number of shares it issued is only a few hundred million or a billion.

Unlike Microsoft's continuous issuance of additional shares, in 2020, Microsoft will issue tens of billions of shares. In this way, the value of a single share will naturally be lower.

"Mr. Wald, I'm a reporter from Bloomberg, and I'd like to ask you a few questions, too." A reporter got up and asked.

"Naturally." Of course, Zucker won't refuse.

Answering a reporter's question is a good time to pretend to be forced. Did you see Bezos pretending to be forced just now? Of course, Zhuke can't let Bei dance alone.

Wheel loading force, who can't?

What's more, the reporter who is asking questions now is from the world's largest financial information company.

.......

So far, Zhuke's share in ICQ has been reduced to 20%.

It looks as if Zhuke was taken advantage of by beibald, but he got 8% of Amazon stock.

Even now, the development of ICQ is much stronger than the original time and space, but Zhuke still thinks Amazon will be more powerful in the future. Of course, even if ICQ can develop Facebook, it can't match Amazon. After all, it is the only three largest company in the world with a market value of more than $1.3 trillion.

Bezos has a stake in ICQ, which makes up for the weakness in the field of instant messaging, and also has the opportunity to develop Amazon globally.

On the whole, this equity replacement is profitable for both Zhuke and beiskinhead.

win-win!

.......

In a few days.

Round B financing of ICQ company was officially opened.

In order to occupy the global market rapidly, ICQ needs more financial support and more powerful allies, so round B financing is very urgent.

You know, in just a few months, many countries have created their own instant messaging software with their own characteristics.

Of course, ICQ can't bear it!

Even if ICQ President weisige can bear it, Zhuke will not agree!

Of course, the remaining shareholders of ICQ, such as Microsoft and Goldman Sachs, will not agree!

"Jeff, I said you made a lot of money. Look, as soon as you joined the board of directors of ICQ, you were faced with round B financing. Your 15% will definitely appreciate a lot. No, you have to make it up to me. " Zhuke said to Bei's bald head.

Smell speech, Bei bald on the spot almost scold Zhuke shameless.

"Don't even think about it, junk. I'm not that cheap." Bei bared his head and turned his mouth.

"Ha ha, you are so boring. I just want to talk about it." Chuck turned his head to one side.

That's right. In fact, Zucker figured out a haircut.

As a director of ICQ, Zhuke's way of nature is that ICQ wants to expand its shares and raise funds, but Bei guangtou doesn't know!

Beiguangtou is now faced with the fact that it has just joined ICQ and is about to see its shares diluted.

Of course, from a legal point of view, concealment is against the law!

However, Zhuke and Zhang Wei have long evaded these risks in the contract, and also indicated a lot in the supplementary agreement.

Therefore, Zhuke is not afraid of beibald face!

Before the formal opening of round B financing, this meeting is very important. So representatives of the shareholders of Microsoft, Goldman Sachs, Sequoia Capital, News Corporation and Hewlett Packard also attended the meeting.

Theme of the meeting: whether to raise funds in the near future?

For or against?

The final answer, of course, is that most of the votes are in favor!

The representatives of Microsoft, Goldman Sachs and other parties are eager to raise funds several times. In this way, they can not help but attract more allies and increase their own shareholding ratio in the process of additional investment.

It's money!

They really don't want that stuff!

It's a long way to go. I'm sorry to all of you, but I have too much work today.
