Silicon Valley

Chapter 288 Global Online Listing

Without the intervention of the Japanese government, Galaxy Films' acquisition of Toho Co., Ltd. progressed very quickly. After two weeks, the acquisition plan was finally completed with a price of 2.75 billion US dollars. After that, Toho Co., Ltd. changed its name to Galaxy Toho Co., Ltd. and began to adapt "Pokemon" to make "Pokémon" cartoons!

The acquisition of Ghibli Animation Studio was earlier. After Hank Ali left Ghibli Animation Studio, Hayao Miyazaki discussed with the other two founders, Takada Isao and Suzuki Toshio. Faced with the attractive conditions offered by Galaxy Films, all three thought it was feasible.

Although the cartoons of Ghibli Animation Studio are very classic, due to distribution restrictions, the box office is not very high. For them, 120 million US dollars is simply a huge sum of money. It is strange that Hayao Miyazaki and the others are not interested. Not only that, if Ghibli Animation Studios is acquired by Galaxy Films, the animated films produced in the future can be released worldwide, which is a world of difference compared to before!

Three days later, Hank Alli came to Ghibli Animation Studio again, and the two sides quickly reached an intention.

Galaxy Films raised US$120 million in Ghibli Animation Studios, holding a 70% stake. Ghibli Animation Studio will be officially merged into Galaxy Films and become an independent animation studio like Pixar. Under normal circumstances, the parent company will not interfere with the management and development of the studio!

Bobby Robin returned to the United States soon after completing the acquisition.

A few days later, James Cameron took the initiative to come to the door.

"Mr. Robin, I heard that Henry Williams previously wrote the script for a disaster movie about the Titanic?"

"Yes, Director Cameron," Bobby Robin smiled, walked to the wine cabinet, took out a bottle of red wine, poured a glass for himself and Cameron, and asked when he handed the glass over, "What? Are you interested in making this movie?"

Cameron took the glass, thanked him, and nodded, "Yes, that's right!"

"Haha, it's a coincidence, Mr. Williams once named you to shoot this film!" Bobby Robin laughed, "The film will invest more than 200 million US dollars and simulate the creation of a real Titan. Nick, even many of the accessories inside are the same!"

When James Cameron heard this, his eyes lit up. He likes to shoot like this. Although it burns money, the effect is the best!

"Mr. Robin, since that's the case, let's get ready to shoot this movie!" Cameron drank some wine, his face flushed with excitement.

"No problem, Director Cameron! We will set up a project and a crew right away!"

"Well, that's great!"

The next day, Galaxy Films announced plans for the first film in 1994.

"The first film "Titanic" by Galaxy Film Company in 1994 was approved, directed by James Cameron, and the film invested at least 200 million US dollars!"

As soon as the news came out, it shocked the world.

200 million US dollars to shoot a movie, super generous, jaw-dropping!

For a time, "Titanic" became the focus of heated discussions.

News about "Titanic", almost everywhere!

"Galaxy produced, must be a classic!" This sentence has become a mantra of movie fans, and it is specially used to describe the movies that Galaxy Films has invested in and filmed, almost all of which are classics!

This time the investment is huge, and it must be creating a classic movie again!

Recalling that in 1993, Galaxy Films occupied the top four at the global box office, everyone couldn't help but look forward to "Titanic"!

Now, most of Hollywood's movie stars are on the move, wanting an audition opportunity. For those actors who auditioned for male and female lead roles, there is basically no hope. Because Henry directly named Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet after learning that he was going to film "Titanic"!

The classic is timeless, and Henry likes the two of them.

"You-jump, i-jump."

Jack and Ruth didn't know how many people they touched back then, and I hope the same can be done in this life.

The preparatory work for the movie is in full swing. This year, Global Online under Henry's name officially launched a charge to Nasdaq as a pioneer! ! !

January 20.

The bell of Nasdaq is ringing, and the world is listed online!

The IPO offered 200 million shares, or 20% of the total share capital, with an initial stock price of $20 per share. As soon as the stock market opened, Global Online's stock price skyrocketed, and the magnitude of the increase was shocking. By noon, the stock had risen to $50.

In the afternoon, it was still soaring, and countless investors bought frantically, as much as they bought.

"Global Online stock price has risen again, buy it!"

"Damn it, it's more than quadrupled and it's still going up. I knew it earlier and I continued to buy it, Mad, it's a loss!"

"What kind of loss are you, I just sold the stock when the stock price tripled, and I am the loss!!!"

"..."

Americans are actually shouting losses, and people in other countries who can't buy global online stocks have cried...

At this moment, countless media around the world are paying attention to the rise of global online stock prices.

Seeing this rising trend, everyone was taken aback.

The stock price has basically not stopped. It has been rising, just like riding a rocket. It is so violent that people can't bear it if they are careful!

At the close of the day, Global Online's share price had soared to $120, a six-fold increase, with a total market value of $120 billion, which shocked everyone's attention.

Television was broadcast live, and newspapers were urgently printed for sale that night.

There has been a lot of discussion on the Internet, and it's a mess.

"It's crazy that the global online box office is as high as 120 billion US dollars!!!"

"Yeah, it's irrational, I found it! Global Online's profit is only about one billion US dollars, and the market value can reach 120 billion US dollars, which is too exaggerated!"

"Damn, the global online market value is 120 billion US dollars, I was thinking, Henry Williams's worth has risen a lot!"

"Yeah, he's too rich, he can kill the top 500 in seconds!"

"Uh... if you add up all the back of the top 500, I don't think Henry Williams has any money!"

"..."

At the end of a crazy day, everyone was so excited that they couldn't sleep, and when the night came, tiredness came to their hearts. At this point, they were able to calm down a bit. $120 billion is indeed not in line with GOL's profitability. However, on the second day, Global Online's share price only dropped by a small amount by $1, and then stabilized. Many shareholders do not want the stock price to drop now, because once it drops, they will all lose money!

Global Online's IPO raised a total of 4 billion US dollars, so much money, enough for the company to grow and develop! This money belongs to the company. If shareholders want to make money, they can only reduce their shares and cash out from the stock market.

Henry has no idea of ​​cashing out by reducing his shares. He has to wait. He has to wait until all his Internet companies are listed, which will definitely cause an even bigger Internet bubble. At that time, reducing his shares can cash out more funds!

The listing of Global Online has made the company's employees rich and created five billionaires, 30 multi-millionaires, and more than 600 millionaires at once. Of course, they do not have Henry's patience, seeing the stock price so crazy , Many people took the opportunity to cash out a lot of money.

A few days later, Henry went to Global Online.

Henry looked around, Nima, there are rows of luxury cars outside the headquarters building! And many of the styles are the same, do you all go to the group purchase together?

(a little more on the last day of the month)
