Hollywood Hunter

Chapter 1654: A Choice

I was woken up by the sound of thunderstorms in the morning, and I was in the San Lucas estate in Mexico. Baja California, with a dry climate, rarely ushered in a stormy weather.

After waking up, looking at the rain curtain between the sea and sky outside the window, I remembered that Carmen Kath had reminded me of today's weather when I got on the plane last night. At that time, there were two goblins in my arms at the same time, so I didn't pay much attention to it. Now, originally planned to leave after breakfast, due to safety concerns, we can only postpone it.

Speaking of which, in rainy weather, Simon will always have some inexplicable emotions of "I don't know I am a guest in my dream". I have been disturbed all these years, and I actually like this feeling when I encounter rainy days, so I got up and passed yesterday. A group of Yingying and Yanyan brought here at night decided to spend the morning alone.

After eating breakfast alone, I came to a study in Linhai Villa, listening to the sound of rain outside the window to handle various tasks.

Carmen Kess delivered a large stack of documents according to her boss's order, sat by the window, drank tea, and opened the first document, about the trend of the US stock market, especially the Nasdaq technology stock market in the past trading week analysis report.

In the previous April, taking advantage of Tinkber's spring new product launch conference, the Nasdaq index broke through the high of 7000 points again after the peak of the first bubble in 1997. In the past two months, even though the date of another round of interest rate hike by the Federal Reserve in July is getting closer, the Nasdaq index has continued to climb amidst fluctuations. As of Friday’s close yesterday, it has reached a high of 7396 points.

Affected by the continuous rise of the Nasdaq, Eaglet, the long-term leader in the technology stock market, has accumulated a stock price increase of 23% compared to the beginning of this year. There is only a distance of less than 40 billion US dollars left for the target of listed companies with market capitalization.

In comparison, Daenerys Entertainment Group, another super leader, at the end of last year, because of the super sales of its surroundings, once realized the overtake of Ygritte's market value, and now it was thrown away again, with a market value of more than 800 billion. The growth has slowed down, closing yesterday Friday with a market value of $823.7 billion.

After Igret and Daenerys, the only one who can keep up with the two super giants is the emerging consumer electronics giant Tinkbel, who also belongs to the Westeros system. The game host ibox-10, the stock price has been rising all the way.

As of yesterday's close, Tinkber's market value reached US$736.1 billion, becoming the third listed company in the world capital market with a market value of more than US$700 billion.

Then, Cisco, which is also a member of the Westeros system, as the world's largest Internet equipment supplier with a near-monopoly position, its market value has fallen to 400 billion. Yesterday's closing market value was 415.1 billion U.S. dollars. The market value of $600 billion at the peak of the Internet bubble in China has been greatly reduced.

This is naturally due to the influence of Simon, the super big butterfly.

First of all, several giants such as Igret, Daenerys, and Tinkbel, who lead the North American stock market, are too dazzling, attracting more capital attention, so they ebb and flow.

Secondly, like AOL and Verizon, Simon also has a certain strategy to suppress Cisco, such as limiting the price of its products, such as relaxing the authorization restrictions of various technical barriers, the purpose is to promote the Internet to the greatest extent on a global scale. Rapid popularization in exchange for more prosperity of the entire new technology industry.

The cost of the rapid development of the global Internet industry is that the revenue growth and profit levels of technology companies such as Cisco and America Online, which play a basic supporting role, are relatively lower than the expectations of the capital market, and their market value will inevitably be affected.

However, Cisco is far from being the one most suppressed by Simon.

The most ruthless, or Microsoft.

Microsoft, which should have been the most eye-catching child in the Internet 1.0 era, is now firmly suppressed by Simon in the role of industry infrastructure support. The only difference is that Cisco and AOL belong to hardware support, while Microsoft is software support.

Because the companies in the Westeros system are too cutting-edge, Microsoft has not only made no achievements in the network business in recent years, but the operating system business as a basic disk has also been threatened by the Linux platform jointly promoted by the entire Westeros system.

Under the combined influence, Microsoft's market capitalization as of yesterday's Friday's close was only US$354.5 billion. It is expected that the peak of this wave of bubbles will only stay in the range of 400 billion. The market value of 400 billion US dollars is certainly not low, but compared with Microsoft's overall industry status in history, the difference can be described as huge.

A direct result of the Nasdaq index constantly breaking new highs is that Simon's personal net worth has received continuous attention from the global media.

According to the closing market value of the NASDAQ on Friday, June 23, media around the world generally estimate Simon’s personal net worth to be between US$2.5 trillion and US$3 trillion. Among them, some authoritative magazines give a figure of US$2.7 trillion. .

Still numbing but absolutely impossible to ignore.

Still the same sentence, the more people who feel deeply about the power of capital, the more they can understand how terrifying this number is, because it means that a young super tycoon who is still in his early thirties, with his own wealth, has great influence on the political power of the entire world. Various fields such as politics, economy, and culture have a powerful influence that can easily call the wind and rain.

In fact, just looking at the various news related to Simon in the recent period, this matter is obvious.

Most people can only look at this fact in awe and amazement, but it is inevitable that a small number of people will inevitably think, where will this super tycoon go in the end?

In the long history of mankind, most people have only felt how an overly powerful country will affect the world, and they have never experienced it before.

In this way, what will happen to a person who has too much wealth and is still growing.

Simon himself didn't know.

The goal of bringing human society into a new era of technology with the 3G plan as the core is just a goal, a beautiful vision in the most ideal state. However, if it is just because his personal wealth is too large, the world will show more and more malice towards him. When a choice is needed, Simon will only make a choice without hesitation, and he would rather teach me to lose the world.

There was a knock on the door, and Carmen Kath came in with a pot of hot tea.

Simon, who was leaning on the leather chair with his legs crossed, recovered from his thoughts, only to realize that after flipping through a document, he was in a daze for a long time without knowing it. The first pot of tea on the table was completely cold.

Carmen put down the tray, picked up the hot tea that had just been delivered, and refilled some of Simon's teacup. Just as he was about to put away a cold teapot and leave, a man's voice sounded in his ear: "It's very fragrant, stay for a while."

So stand still.

I also secretly made up my mind to use today's perfume a few more times in the future, or to match it with face cream and hair lotion.

Feeling the attractive daughter's fragrance of the girl beside him, and hearing the sound of rain outside the window, Simon's mood quickly eased a bit, and he changed to an ongoing report on the 2000 U.S. election, and continued to look through it.
