A new week, the time is already September 4, 2000.

Attend a meeting in the morning.

Completed the first full board meeting of the new Pfizer in the Warner-Lambert merger and management reshuffle.

The merger between Pfizer and Warner-Lambert, the two major pharmaceutical giants in North America, started last year. The news was announced on December 20 of the previous year. After several months of review in Washington and the complicated reorganization in various aspects after passing the review, it was not until recently that all the merger processes were completely completed, and trading was reopened last week. As of the close of last Friday, the market value was fixed at 3103 One hundred million U.S. dollars.

Another $300 billion super giant.

Therefore, other pharmaceutical giants such as Johnson \u0026 Johnson in North America and Merck in Germany are far away, and it has become the world's largest pharmaceutical giant worthy of the name.

After the merger, the brand-new Pfizer, whose market value can exceed 300 billion U.S. dollars, is inseparable from the strong dominance of the Westeros system on this merger, so that the newly listed Pfizer has been regarded by the capital market as another Westeros concept stocks.

In fact, it is the same.

The brand-new Pfizer, after the completion of the merger, the Westeros system is based on the three major platforms of Westeros, Apollo Management Company and Black Rock Asset Management Company, with a total shareholding ratio of 19.3%. On the public level, all three have become shareholdings The largest shareholder with a proportion of more than 5%, and occupies the top three, of which Westeros ranks first, with a shareholding ratio of 8.7%.

For a corporate giant with a long history that has long since become a publicly held company, controlling nearly 20% of the company's shares is basically equivalent to owning the company.

Therefore, after the reorganization of Pfizer's board of directors, there are 11 seats. With Simon's approval, he was able to take office.

Not only that, the remaining 5 seats on the board of directors were also finalized after discussions with several other capital shareholders who have made good friends with the Westeros system. Under normal circumstances, they would not sing against Simon. At this level, saying that Pfizer has changed its surname to 'Westero', there will be almost no objections from many people.

Of course, keep a low profile, even if it is a well-known fact, the Westeros system will certainly not promote it like this.

On the other hand, although he has become the owner, Simon just watched the whole process of today's important board meeting and did not express much opinion.

A layman does not guide an insider.

Of course, Simon does not agree with some of Pfizer's research and development strategies, such as the industry scandal that was later exposed that people hate to deliberately develop long-term chronic drugs instead of a one-time cure. Even with Simon's current position of power, these methods are not It may have some impact on him and other members of the Westeros family, but I still feel that it is too out of style.

Our journey should be the sea of ​​stars!

Similarly, the human pursuit of health, in Simon's view, should be two words, eternal. However, since it is the industry's default rule that has lasted for many years, he did not interfere for a while.

Simon’s strategy, since it is a profitable company, is to make money with peace of mind. Money is actually resources. With enough resources, Simon can invest in forming other companies or teams to achieve his goals.

On the other hand, although he didn't point fingers, the reason for showing up is also very simple, to declare sovereignty.

This company, yes, has the surname 'Westero'!

This is also Simon's consistent attitude towards the various hilltops of the huge Westeros system. I can delegate power to you, but you must know who this company belongs to. Otherwise, no matter how powerful you are, you have to get out.

The meeting lasted one morning.

At noon, a communication reception was arranged at a hotel nearby, and at the same time, Pfizer also issued a market communiqué based on the success of the board meeting, which was basically the new Pfizer's future development strategy.

Of course the dark side will never be mentioned.

The highlight of this bulletin is probably that Pfizer plans to invest 10 billion US dollars in the next 10 years to invest in the research of genetic engineering and related drugs and therapies.

It is still a new technology concept that is currently on the rise.

After all, the wave of new technologies around 2000 is not just the Internet, but also concepts such as biopharmaceuticals and genetic engineering.

Pfizer has already invested heavily in biopharmaceuticals. This time, it has launched genetic engineering on a large scale. On the one hand, it is to chase market concepts and stimulate stock prices. On the other hand, it is largely in line with the Westeros system. The 3G plan, after all, Pfizer has accumulated hundreds of years of research and development resources in the pharmaceutical field, is definitely not comparable to the technical team that Simon has invested in a few years to hatch.

Simon just didn't expect, or everyone didn't expect, that Pfizer's communiqué, which was mostly just a cliché, accidentally boosted the birth of a capital miracle.

Opening in the afternoon, Pfizer, as the leading stock on the New York Stock Exchange, unexpectedly promoted the rise of genetic engineering concept stocks on the two major platforms of the New York Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq because of its planned investment in bioengineering. Among them, Nasdaq Related concept stocks in the market rose even more fiercely, and with it, the entire market was pulled up by a large margin.

As a result, Eaglet, which has been sprinting towards a certain goal between fluctuations for several consecutive months, finally broke through the long-lost $1 trillion mark in market value at 2:37 p.m.

Created a new capital market record.

The first trillion-dollar market capitalization company was born.

Eaglet's market value exceeded one trillion yuan, which in turn stimulated the rise of the entire market.

As of the close on Monday afternoon, Eaglet's stock price rose by 2.7% in a single day, and its market value rose from US$987.1 billion before the opening to US$1,013.8 billion at the close. In one day, the market value increased by US$26.7 billion. It exceeds the total market value of most companies in the two major stock markets.

With Eaglet becoming the first giant with a market value of one trillion yuan, and the Nasdaq index hitting a new high, with a 1.5% increase on the day, it reached 7646 points at the close. The total value of the entire Nasdaq market stock thus Reaching 9.6 trillion US dollars, there is only one step away from the 10 trillion mark.

Simultaneously with Eaglet Company becoming the first trillion-dollar market capitalization company to be on the hot news, it is natural that Simon's latest personal net worth cannot be escaped.

After the market closed that afternoon, Forbes gave an updated figure of $3 trillion on its official website and the official social network homepage at the same time.

That's right.

After Forbes communicated with the Westeros system, it deliberately rounded up a number, because 3 trillion US dollars, compared with the 3.1 trillion US dollars that Forbes actually hopes to release, gives people the feeling that there is no feeling.

No feeling, this is very important.

Not just the figure of 3 trillion US dollars, although it is widely discussed that the market value of Eaglet has exceeded 1 trillion, but on major Internet platforms, the latest news about Simon's 3 trillion US dollars of personal net worth generally only exists for a few hours. Take it down soon.

In short, it is too conspicuous. Since the best state of "existing, but invisible" cannot be achieved proactively, the public opinion strategy formulated by the media PR team of the Westeros family for Simon is "existing, visible, but not felt".

Simon Westeros, $3 trillion.

oh.

Then it's time to drink and drink, and it's time to play ball.

That's about it.

In any case, after all, it was very lively for two days.

An estate in the northern suburbs of Greenwich, Connecticut.

It's Tuesday night, September 5th.

After finishing a day's work, Simon came here tonight to have dinner with Sophia Fisher, and also Fisher's children, Daniel and Gemma, compared to the two little ones when they first met, the boy and the girl are now more mature. They are 19 years old and 17 years old respectively, which makes Simon feel a little more emotion about the passage of time.

It has been 14 years since 1986.

Moreover, it is probably due to the mixture of too many people's memories, even though the age of this body is only 32 years old, in fact, Simon is not sure what his mental age is, but it must be more than 32 years old.

Sofia came to New York this time to arrange another round of autumn fashion week. In New York, the opening time of fashion week is September 21. Although most of Melisandre's flagship brands are in Europe, but for North America This supermarket never takes lightly.

After chatting a few words about fashion week, Gemma, who was already slim and innocent, took the initiative to talk about the hot news in the past two days: "Simon, you are already a $3 trillion super rich man, Why do I look the same as before?"

For the little girl who has been close to her for many years, even if she is not as cute as she was when she was a child, Simon will still not use the stereotype of "money is just a number to a certain extent" to perfunctory, and said with a smile: "Which aspect, if it is money For example, because the process of quantitative change to qualitative change has not yet been achieved, for example, 10 billion to 1 trillion will definitely be a qualitative change, but 1 trillion to 3 trillion, the change will not be too big. In addition, if you talk about me, I am sorry , Gemma, carbon-based organisms will not become silicon-based organisms just because they have enough wealth, so I am still me."

What Simon said was interesting, everyone smiled, Gemma said: "However, some of my classmates discussed in private, your 3G plan seems to be very likely to change human beings from carbon-based organisms to silicon-based organisms."

"It's our 3G plan," Simon deliberately emphasized, and added: "In addition, at least based on our current scientific knowledge, the silicon-based state is far less stable than the carbon-based state, so our team will not Efforts in this direction still need to be improved on the basis of our carbon-based organisms."

Gemma nodded, and suddenly looked at her mother again: "I think you must have achieved something in your research. For example, Mom, it doesn't seem to have changed much these years, and she is still so beautiful."

When Sophia heard her daughter mentioning herself suddenly, the little man's eyes turned around immediately, feeling a little embarrassed.

After so many years, it is true that even Sophia herself still maintains considerable confidence in her current appearance and figure. However, this is largely due to one’s own foundation. After all, each person’s physique is different, and it is probably the same as a person’s lifespan is affected by genes. Some people begin to age rapidly after the age of 30, while others can withstand the years. Of erosion, Sofia luckily belongs to the latter.

Of course, careful maintenance over the years is also essential.

After all, no matter how good the foundation is, it can't stand wasted.

Speaking of which, Sophia suddenly discovered that there are many women similar to herself around men. After all, a certain guy's personal preference will probably never change in this life.

Thinking about it this way, she was somewhat ashamed to be sized up by the little man, so Sophia changed the subject: "I've seen the report, everyone was discussing that the time point when Ygritte's market value broke through trillions should be

It was Tinkber's autumn press conference. It was a surprise that it suddenly passed by. "

The time for Tinkber's autumn new product launch event was determined last month, on September 16, a Saturday.

There are actually no new products this year, mainly routine updates.

However, Sophia is right. Even if there are no new explosive products, because of the company's continuous rapid growth in recent years, every press conference of Tinkobel will always drive the capital market to become active.

Simon nodded: "I didn't expect it either, but the market value of Eaglet exceeded 900 billion very early. Since the Nasdaq bubble has not burst, 1 trillion is only a matter of time."

Sophia asked curiously: "According to your statement, if the Nasdaq bubble bursts, what should be the reasonable market value of Eaglet?"

"US$300 billion to US$500 billion is actually quite reasonable."

Daniel, who was relatively silent, said at this time: "Simon, Igret's recent price-earnings ratio is more than 160 times. If it is cut in half, it will also be 80 times. Is it too high?"

Simon looked at the boy and said seriously: "The price-earnings ratio shows the growth potential. Although Eaglet's market value has exceeded 1 trillion, it is far from reaching the limit given the future industrial scale of the global Internet market."

Gemma was speechless: "But, I think, Simon, Ygritte is already too huge."

Simon smiled: "You are very sharp, this is indeed a problem."

Gemma was praised, a little embarrassed, and said: "Simon, my classmates discussed privately, saying that there are people in Washington who want to split Ygritte, and they have been suppressed. Well, in short, you are very good .”

Simon just smiled this time.

Regarding the inside story, if the brothers and sisters are not around, you can chat with Sophia without any scruples. Forget it now. After all, the little girl obviously likes to communicate with her classmates. If she utters some inappropriate words, it will be bad after all.

For Ygritte, Simon has actually been thinking about splitting the company decisively at an appropriate point.

Otherwise, once the big company is really so big that it is hopelessly ill, it will be too late to split.

This time node is probably the next crash of the Nasdaq.

Of course, it is not to start immediately after the crash, which is likely to lead to a rapid deterioration of the market situation, adding fuel to the fire and offending too many people. So is to wait until an appropriate market trough. At that time, according to a certain saying in the past, when a whale falls, well, it must not be the birth of all things, but the number of whales.
