The richest man starts with a blind box

Chapter 438 Sell it for more than $15 [plus]

"I have achieved the ultimate, it's time to retreat bravely and enjoy life!" After the market closed in the morning, Yang Zhiyuan lay on a water bed, enjoying the services of two beauties, one black and one white, and sighed. .

At this time, Yang Zhiyuan already had the idea of ​​leaving the stage, but the main reason was because of Huang He.Originally, Jerry Yang still had a few years in history before he would give up his shares in Yahoo and start enjoying life.

But now this idea is advanced, because he saw the news of Huang He in Europe.

He saw that Huang He bought the former royal palace in France curiously for 10 billion US dollars in one breath, and became boyfriend and girlfriend with three European princesses. envy.

Although the black and white beauties beside Yang Zhiyuan are also top-notch stunners, they are just ordinary girls, how could they be stimulated by the identities of the three princesses, Yang Zhiyuan envied him when he thought about it.

So Jerry Yang decided to quit quickly, sell half of his Yahoo stock, and then resign completely, or just take care of the Yahoo China business, leaving him with a lot of time to enjoy his life.

Of course, there is another main reason, which is that Jerry Yang has actually found out some problems existing in Yahoo, but Yahoo only commissions a research company to conduct a detailed market research every three months, and the market research report for this month has not yet come out. , Yang Zhiyuan himself does not know how Yahoo's actual market share is, but according to some traffic data in the background, that is, with Google's independence, Yahoo's traffic has dropped slightly.

This is a normal situation, but the background traffic data has been declining for a month, which seems to be a bit wrong.Yang Zhiyuan was keenly aware of the problems that existed.

"I'm afraid that in the field of search engines, Google has a great advantage, and it will take away a little bit of traffic!" Yang Zhiyuan guessed like this, so he also guessed that when the next market report comes out, Yahoo's data may not be as expected. The stock price is so good, and the stock price may drop a little at that time, so it is the best choice to take advantage of the peak of 1500 billion US dollars to retreat.

And Yahoo's board of directors naturally welcomed Jerry Yang's withdrawal with both hands and feet, so that the shares in Jerry Yang's hands would be integrated into the stock market, which would be even more beneficial for them to control Yahoo.Now the shareholders are thinking all day about how to push their own people to the position of president in order to reap benefits.

So Yang Zhiyuan's retirement is already a certainty, and now he is thinking of selling the shares in his hand through the stock market.

"Sell it if it exceeds the total market value of 15 US dollars per share," Yang Zhiyuan muttered looking at the current share price of 14.8 US dollars per share.

Yahoo's total share capital is 100 billion shares, so the current stock price is $15 a share.

Originally, Jerry Yang had planned to leave a few days ago, but Jerry Yang felt that it would be more cost-effective to sell it if it rose above 15 US dollars a share, but yesterday, because of the short selling of Western Mustang Company, the stock price fell to 14.2 US dollars a share. Of course, Yang Zhiyuan was not willing to sell at this price.

Fortunately, Yahoo's rise is astonishing. It returned to the price of 14.98 US dollars this morning, and it was almost able to rise back to 15 US dollars. Waiting for the people in the stock market to take over.

In the afternoon, when the U.S. stock market opened, Jerry Yang shook his red wine glass, intending to witness the moment when Yahoo shares returned to $15 a share.

Then the stock price fell to $14.8.

"This is a normal shock adjustment, and it will return to the upward curve soon!" Yang Zhiyuan convinced himself, and then he saw that Yahoo's stock price dropped to 14.7.

Then it was 14.52, and then it fell directly to 14.4. After a while, the market value of nearly 60 billion US dollars was lost.

"What happened?" Jerry Yang stood up, and it was already difficult for him to maintain the mentality at the beginning. "Could it be that someone is shorting Yahoo?"

Yang Zhiyuan immediately found the person in charge of the company's finance, and his expression was also a little ugly at this time.

"Is the Western Broncos shorting us?" Yang Zhiyuan asked very simply.

"Yes and no..." The other party said cautiously.

"What does this mean?" Yang Zhiyuan asked irritably.

"In a short period of time, there were indeed a large number of Yahoo stocks sold. It is clear that there is nothing wrong with shorting, which caused our stock price to drop a lot. However, the sources of these stocks are almost a dozen different institutions, and there is no difference with the funds of the Western Broncos. In fact, the Western Broncos have spent all their funds, and they can no longer have money to short us!" The other party said.

"Then why? Why do more than a dozen institutions come to short us? This is unscientific!" Yang Zhiyuan asked distractedly.

"I don't know either..." His subordinates lowered their heads, Yang Zhiyuan had no choice but to let him leave.

Of course, Yang Zhiyuan didn't know that this was actually the result of Google's press conference at noon.

Because Google's press conference only attracted a small number of reporters, the news did not spread widely, and these reporters also found a business opportunity, that is, to sell the news to some organizations as soon as possible.

Ever since, only the organizations with good relations with these few reporters were informed of the news in the first place.Then, before the news broke out, he sold the Yahoo stock in his hands as soon as possible.

At the same time, these organizations specifically asked the reporters not to sell the news to other organizations, otherwise they would be ruined if they were affected.

And these reporters have basically received hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars in rewards from institutions, and have achieved counterattacks in life.

"Forget it, maybe this is the aftermath of shorting, and the stock price may fluctuate for a while!" Yang Zhiyuan continued to comfort himself, and then wondered whether he should hurry up and sell the stocks in his hand.

It should be too late to sell it now, but Yang Zhiyuan is a little unwilling. He can sell it for 15 US dollars a share, but now he can only sell it for 14.4 US dollars a share.

You know, Jerry Yang owns 10% of Yahoo shares, and plans to sell half of them, which is 5%, which is a full 50 billion shares of Yahoo shares.

If he made a move at US$14.4, he might lose US$3 million in profit, and Yang Zhiyuan was reluctant.

"Forget it. I have too many stocks. It is impossible to sell them out in a short time. It will take several months to sell them slowly. Let's wait!" Finally, Yang Zhiyuan made a decision.

It's not that Yang Zhiyuan can't sell in one go, after all, that's what the Western Mustang Company did before.But in this case, another 150 billion US dollars worth of stocks were shorted, and Yahoo's stock might have wiped out Jerry Yang himself, and he was a little bit reluctant.

Thinking of this, Yang Zhiyuan decided to relax again, and today he would simply be unbearable in the stock market, so as not to feel uncomfortable in his heart.

Yang Zhiyuan didn't know that with the decline of Yahoo's stock, many institutions holding Yahoo's stock in the stock market felt that something was wrong.

So these agencies began to actively investigate Yahoo's situation, and once the agency started to actively investigate, Google specially held a press conference to publish the prospectus, it is absolutely impossible to hide from the eyes of the agency.

So all institutions know the content of this prospectus.

"Damn, such important news is kept from us, those bastards!" The institutions who learned the truth scolded those institutions that ran away first, while frantically selling their own stocks, for fear that they would be locked in this one step later. inside the pit.

The result was that when Jerry Yang was relaxing, Yahoo's stock price plummeted at an unimaginable speed. When the market closed in the afternoon, Jerry Yang came back to relax and glanced at his own stock price, he was instantly dumbfounded.

12.37 dollars.

In just over an hour, the stock price dropped from 14.4 to 12.37. The stock price of Yahoo, which took half a year to rise, fell completely in one afternoon.

"What the hell happened?" Jerry Yang was dumbfounded and yelled crazily. At this time, most of the stockholders were in the same situation. They didn't understand what happened to Yahoo and why it happened. In one afternoon, the stock price dropped nearly three dollars. You know, Yahoo was still on the rise this morning, but it collapsed in one afternoon.

But the answer was announced soon, because at 4 pm that day, Google officially posted its prospectus on Nasdaq and its official website.

Although not many people saw the prospectus for the first time, every stockholder who read it was dumbfounded, especially those who bought Yahoo stock but had not had time to sell it, all trembling with fright, wishing to buy it immediately. Just delete this prospectus, and then quickly sell the stocks in the next day.

However, when they saw this prospectus, more people had nothing to do with Yahoo, and they immediately spread the news on the Internet with a gloating mood.

The first platform to launch is Weibo.

With huge financial support and a blank market, Weibo has established sub-stations in almost all colleges and universities in the United States within a month. Applying the previous routine, it has created a school beauty and school grass ranking list. Come out, and come to attract the popularity of various schools.

And after these students with the richest social circles became users of Weibo, Weibo expanded at an unimaginable speed on the entire network.

After two months, Weibo has 300 million registered users and 100 million active users in the United States. This is already a very large user group, and this number is still expanding.

Because Weibo has reached a strategic partnership with Google, under the arrangement of Versailles, Weibo and Google have exchanged shares. Weibo exchanged 10% of its own shares for 5% of Google’s shares. a very close alliance.

One of the only three fixed advertising spots on the Google homepage was given to Weibo, which is the best proof.

Similarly, Weibo also puts Google on its homepage. At the same time, as an official search, both parties try their best to direct the traffic they can direct to each other, forming a perfect complementarity of resources.

Therefore, Weibo has developed extremely fast in the United States, and has already achieved a major market position among young people.

So when a Weibo user named I am your uncle posted the full text of Google's prospectus on Weibo, and at the same time asserted on Weibo, "Yahoo is over."

This guy immediately climbed to the top of Weibo's most searched list, and hung on the most prominent position on Weibo's homepage. In less than an hour, almost all Weibo netizens knew that Yahoo's market was completely swallowed up by Google. information.
