Wall Street Legend - Chapter 430
Chapter 430 Mars
“Boss, you have changed. You don’t seem to like working anymore recently. I haven’t seen you here for a while.”
Mr. McCord smelled the cigar and said so.
Seeing his eyes staring at the cigar, Ye Dongqing couldn’t tell whether he missed the expensive cigar or really missed herself, and replied with a smile on the corner of his mouth: “Thank you for taking good care of the company. As for the idea that I don’t need to come here. I also want to thank God for allowing me to make a fortune at such a young age. I feel that I am already financially free and have the strength to retire and enjoy life.”
Mr. McCord really can’t refute this sentence.
If even a small boss like himself cannot be financially free, then who dares to say that he is financially free? Although the usual expenses are not small, it is a skyscraper and a charity, but compared with the expenditure, the income is obviously more.
After lighting the cigar, McCord said enviously: “I will feel much more relaxed when you are in the company. In fact, there are not many important tasks nowadays, and most of the time is wasted on socializing. You don’t like these activities. It can be attended by me or someone else, for example, an American economic forum to be held next month, and the location is actually chosen in Panama, the name is boring, I only know that there is a canal there.”
Ye Dongqing did not dare to answer this question, he believed that as long as he showed a little interest in this kind of boring meeting, Mr. McCord would take advantage of the opportunity and let him attend.
So he replied: “Go, someone will provide food and lodging, be featured in newspapers or on TV, and more importantly, get paid from me. A large number of people will be happy to do this kind of thing.”
Smoking a cigar, putting your feet up on the desk, holding the recent first and second quarter financial reports of Danshui Investment Group and its subsidiaries, as a boss, as long as you want to be lazy, your life will never be so busy , now Ye Dongqing only needs to supervise well, and he has been doing this some time ago.
In fact, Danshui Investment Group itself is a huge investment company, and it does not have too complicated business itself. It is mainly used for management and coordination to help the development of various subsidiaries. It does not plan to go public, and does not plan to distribute shares to anyone.
Ye Dongqing thought about donating most of the company’s shares, or even all of them, to a charitable foundation under his name. The only downside was that he would lose the title of the world’s richest man. He may do so in the future. In the short term It’s not necessary, maybe the wealth will be transferred in batches in the future, after all, he can already predict how crazy his wealth will skyrocket in the next ten or fifteen years.
People think that Apple’s current market value of more than 40 billion U.S. dollars is already quite powerful, and he thinks it may increase by ten or twenty times in ten years.
Perhaps this is the reason why he pays more attention to himself than external things now, because it is a bit boring, the process of making money is too boring for him, it is easier than picking up money, at least picking up money is still a physical job.
The colorful financial report was full of green, and the companies that had problems were not taken seriously by him. Those who invested casually did not notice any problems. Then he looked at the performance of hedge funds this year. As of yesterday, the profits have exceeded As high as more than two billion US dollars, mainly due to the growth of the oil industry and the Internet industry, I also don’t think there is any defect that needs to be adjusted.
Talked with Mr. McCord, and he quickly patted his **** and left. The development is smooth, so why stay in the company and waste time…
****************
Apple’s announcement of the development of electric vehicles caused a little bit of a stir. Some shareholders objected that they were digging their own grave, but the market feedback of the iPhone was so good that it didn’t cause any major troubles.
At the beginning of July, Ye Dongqing officially announced her entry into the field of space exploration through Facebook. The main goal is to send people to Mars in the 1930s and 1940s and build a small Mars colony base.
Theoretically, it should be feasible for a small number of people to live on Mars. No one can say that the progress of the specific project will be smooth, but for the vast majority of people who eat melons, it is indeed exciting and good news, because most People may live to that time, even if they can’t go, it’s good to be able to see. After all, since the birth of human beings, they have been tossing around on the earth, and it is debatable whether they have even set foot on the moon.
It is a very meaningful thing. In the initial stage, we will first simulate the Martian environment on the earth, build the most suitable living quarters, and first find a way to send a few people there, and then consider the matter of people settling on Mars.
If possible, Ye Dongqing hopes that when she gets old, she can die on another planet at the end of her life, and Mars is obviously the most suitable.
Apart from traveling, there seems to be no other economic interests, so in the eyes of the media, this is just a young rich man’s tossing around. It’s more like a game, a game for the super rich. Ordinary people can’t even live well by themselves. Who cares what happens to Mars.
A group of people under his command are working hard to make money for their own interests. Ye Dongqing’s small life is leisurely and carefree, not to mention troubles, but it is true that he occasionally feels boring. In summer, he even asks Miss Maxi to go skiing in South America.
Before you know it, September is here.
Whatsapp suddenly announced that it was about to merge with the global trending news website, which is regarded as a joint listing, and actively explored new businesses in games and advertising. After the merger and re-trading, the market value soared to more than 30 billion US dollars, and Ye Dongqing did not sell a single share. , in his opinion, you can wait a little longer, the market value has risen quite fast, almost comparable to Amazon’s market value.
In just one quarter, Ye Dongqing’s net worth has risen by more than 30 billion US dollars. The situation seems to be out of control. No one knows how he did it. It means that he earns 400 million US dollars a day. Many investment industries have risen together. The power of rising is simply terrifying, leaving Gates with nearly 40 billion US dollars.
As said before, this is still just the beginning, Ye Dongqing didn’t pay attention, even he himself learned from the newspaper that he made so much money.
There is no fluctuation in my heart, and I even want to laugh a little.
Jobs is watching over Apple. This guy has been busy for a while, and finally increased the iPhone’s finished product reserve to 500,000 units. From the beginning of the transportation process, news has been leaked. September 29th, the day of the release , Long queues lined up at the gates of the directly-operated stores early on. If it wasn’t for his status as an Amazon shareholder, Mr. Bezos called Ye Dongqing himself, and there was no need to put it on the Amazon online mall. These stores can be easily digested.
Ye Dongqing personally took to the streets to see the iTouch when it was launched, and this time is no exception.
It is pitiful to say that after a long waiting period, many potential consumers have gone crazy. Knowing that everyone can only buy one mobile phone this time, some people stood at the door of the store three days in advance, pitched a tent and waited for the start of the sale. …
