US $9.36 billion!
That's all Zhuke has now!
His wealth of nearly 10 billion US dollars is enough to put him in the top 100 or even the top 80 of the global rich list in 1999; Of course, if only accounting for the 1999 rich list of the United States, then Zhuke can definitely rank in the top 50.
Not Zuker suck up, but the top rich are BUG.
In 1999, Microsoft's Bill Gates was awesome!
Microsoft's market capitalization, driven by the Internet era, became the world's first stock market in May 1999. Its market value is as high as 600 billion, close to the peak of 620 billion dollars before the outbreak of the Internet bubble.
This record has been dusty for 13 years!
Subsequently, the Internet bubble burst, the market value of Internet Co fell, and shareholders became rational. Even Microsoft slowed down for more than ten years before returning to its peak.
Until 2012, the rising Apple broke the record of 13 years with a market value of 630 billion US dollars!
In 1999, Bill Gates was the richest man in the world with 103.4 billion dollars!
Its huge wealth is more than $60 billion higher than Carlos, the second in the world!
In the face of Bill Gates this huge bug, you say, what does Zhuke take to compare now?
Similarly, in the United States of America in 1999, which of the top 50 shareholders in the rich list, such as Cisco, AOL, Yahoo, Amazon and so on, are not worth more than 10 billion dollars or close to 10 billion dollars?
Zhuke's wealth is not as good as theirs.
"How about that?"
"I have Google and LinkedIn in my hand. The returns of these two companies in the future are enough to make me go further!"
"Moreover, the richest man in the world is not my pursuit!"
"With golden dawn Entertainment Group as the center, we will build a media group that can distribute movies all over the world, assist ourselves with a large number of technology stocks and Internet stocks, and absolutely be able to control our life easily and happily!"
For a time, Zhuke was full of pride.
"Mr. Wald!"
Just at this time, Anna, a private financial adviser, interrupted Zhuke's imagination.
"What can I do for you?" Zucker frowned.
Anna said, "Mr. Wald, as the financial adviser of your financial team, I would like to ask if you have any other investment plans in the near future? You know, you have 590 million dollars in cash and 780 million dollars in gold in your personal account. This huge amount of money is not used for investment. According to the current depreciation rate of the US dollar, it is absolutely not a means to avoid risks. "
Zucker nodded.
He knows what Anna means!
In recent years, the depreciation rate of the US dollar is indeed a little fast. With the rise of China, the European Union and Asian countries, the US dollar is not enough to be called "US dollar". The international situation is constantly changing, and the continuous depreciation of the US dollar is irreversible!
The dollar doesn't keep its value!
"Mr. ward, I suggest you continue to increase your gold reserves, or invest in other technology stocks and Internet stocks to maintain your personal wealth." Anna suggested.
Invest in technology stocks and Internet stocks?
Suddenly, Zucker shook his head.
make fun of!
Even if Zhuke wants to preserve his wealth, he does not want to invest in Internet stocks at this stage. No one knows better than the crosses. It is less than 7 months before the Internet bubble bursts.
"Investing in Internet stocks, I'm out of my mind!" Chuck thought to himself.
In fact, there are 590 million dollars in the account, which is a bit surprising for Zhuke!
Then Zhuke looked at the specific information and solved the doubts.
In recent years, Wald pictures has produced a lot of box office movies and made a lot of money. Even though this part of the money was not transferred, it was all used for the construction of overseas channels and the production cost of new films. However, in many film production, Zhuke worked as a producer.
Film producers are paid, and there are box office dividends!
In recent years, this part of income alone has accumulated more than 40 million US dollars!
In the same way, the UPN and WB networks under the jurisdiction of Jin Shuguang TV group have produced variety shows such as "talent show" and TV series such as "prison break", which have also made a lot of money for Zhuke.
That's how the $590 million in cash in your personal account comes from!
"Anna, I have no plans to invest for the time being." Zhuke shook his head.
"Mr. Wald, I respect your decision, but as your financial advisor, I still want to remind you that depositing cash in the bank will lead to the shrinkage of your personal wealth." Said Anna.
Smell speech, Zhu Ke quickly waved a hand.
Anna is not a passer-by. Of course, she doesn't understand Zhuke's plan!
"With the outbreak of the Internet, Lao Tzu has been short for a while. Isn't it good?" Zhuke smiles in his heart.
It takes a lot of money to short!
The 590 million US dollars in personal account is enough to guarantee the success of Zhuke!
.......
The next day.
Zucker flew from Los Angeles to Seattle.
The headquarters of Amazon mall is located in Seattle. Bezos, as the host, naturally wants to express his feelings to Zhuke.
"Don't worry, you don't have to pay for this meal. As the host, I'll pay for it!"
In a Michelin restaurant, Bezos is particularly generous, not the least stingy in the past.
Chuck said with a smile, "I've come all the time. It must be your treat. And of course, why are you so proud? Please answer
"Come on, man."
Bezos quite disdainfully waved his hand, "you say, you occupy 8% of Amazon stock, how much money for you? I remember when I first exchanged ICQ shares, it was worth about $100 million, but now you get a return of $3 billion worth of shares. You make a lot of money, man! "
Zhuke showed a simple and honest smile.
Indeed, as Bezos said, Zucker made a lot of money.
"Bei bald, if you feel jealous, you can buy back the shares from me. According to our friendship, I will absolutely agree." Chuckles.
"Eh?"
Bezos's face changed, and his eyes on Zhuke immediately showed the intention of examination.
"Are you sure you're not kidding?" Bezos asked.
"Of course, I can open boxes, wine, cars and errands, but I'm not kidding." Chuckles.
Bezos did not understand the real intention of Zhuke, so he laughed it off.
Zhuke added: "I'm short of cash in the near future. I really have plans to sell some Amazon shares. Even if I don't sell them to you, I believe there will be a lot of people willing to take over."
Internet bubble burst, imminent!
Zhuke wants to cash in and land safely!
"Of course, I won't sell all my technology stocks, but some companies have to sell their stocks."
Amazon stock, Zhuke can sell a part, set out a high amount of cash;
Then, after the Internet bubble burst, Amazon's share price fell from $40 to US $2, and then a wave of super low price was absorbed.
Cash out at high price and recycle at low price!
This one before and one after the operation, enough to make Zhuke double.
"2% of Yahoo's stock, we must find a successor, otherwise when the crisis occurs, I will definitely suffer a heavy loss."
Yahoo is different from Amazon!
In the future, Amazon will be the company with the highest single share value in the world, and a giant company with a market value of more than one trillion US dollars. Holding its shares is absolutely a matter of huge profits;
Yahoo is not!
YAHOO unable to get up after a fall in the Internet bubble, and its market value plummeted year after year. Holding its stock for a long time is definitely not a good thing.
Zhuke is a thief!
Zucker was happy with his nearly ten billion dollar fortune, but it was exposed by a newspaper shortly after.
The first watch of the book.
