Hexagonal God
Chapter 587 Who is No. 1?
That afternoon, Old Wang from Dajiang Company came to Hengdian and met Su Mo at the Yangxin Palace.
In fact, he just came to complain. He hoped that Su Mo could think of a way to unfreeze the company's account, otherwise the overseas business would have to be stopped.
Su Mo comforted him and said that the matter would be resolved soon.
But at the same time, Su Mo also raised technical issues regarding the upgrade of their company's products.
Su Mo knew this company very well. Ten years later, the company's market value had exceeded 160 billion US dollars, accounting for 80% of the global drone market share.
But their company is not very big now, with a market value of only 8 billion US dollars, and it still needs a long time to develop.
However, they have no way to deal with this problem for the time being. Chip research is difficult, and foreign countries have imposed a strong blockade on China's lithography machine technology. Everything requires a little bit of research and development.
Su Mo proposed on the spot that Su Tang Group invest in technology and complete technological innovation of their company's products in the short term to become a global leader.
But in Lao Wang's opinion, these words inevitably seem like bragging.
After all, they are professionals and know how difficult it is to develop chips. Although Su Tang Group is one of the leading large groups in the country, I have never heard that they have done any research in this area.
However, given Su Mo's status as a Nobel Prize winner in physics, he was not in a position to question him directly.
Finally, Old Wang said, "Mr. Su, I admire your success, but we're facing a lot of challenges right now. You said you want us to become a global leader in a short period of time. Besides technology, can you also provide financial support?"
Su Mo thought for a moment and said, "Financial support is not impossible, but then I'll have to hold a larger stake."
"How much support can Mr. Su provide? How much equity do you want?"
Su Mo smiled slightly. "Not much, 49%. Regardless of the group's future share expansion or whatever, my shareholding ratio will remain unchanged, and I will not be involved in the group's operations. As for financial support, I think billion US dollars should be enough to meet your company's current expansion needs."
Old Wang, who was originally resistant to Su Mo's idea of buying shares, was stunned by this figure.
Everyone says that Su Mo is very rich and is already the richest man in the world, but until they meet him face to face, it is really difficult for ordinary people to understand how rich Su Mo is.
Just one word means 5 billion US dollars, which is more than half of the current total market value of Dajiang Company.
With this amount of money and the provision of new technology, and the shareholding not exceeding 50%, Lao Wang felt like he had received a lucky break.
But he still struggled, because he was confident that he could make the company bigger and stronger in the future, and it was psychologically difficult for him to accept selling half of it all at once.
After thinking for a while, he finally spoke with difficulty: "Mr. Su, it's not that I don't trust your character, but we are in the technology business. Before I see your chip technology, or whether you can help unfreeze our company's overseas accounts, it's hard for me to believe in agreeing to your terms."
Seeing that Old Wang had not compromised at this time, Su Mo was very impressed.
This is a person with persistence and integrity, not the kind of person who is blinded by money and does not care about anything else. No wonder he can do well in his career in the future.
"That's okay. If these are your two requirements, then I can assure you that you'll see results soon. I hope that by then, Mr. Wang will accept my suggestion."
"Okay! If President Su can really do these two things, then Dajiang will accept your investment and even give you the position of chairman."
"No, that's not necessary. I believe in your abilities. I will set up an investment company. I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation then."
I shook hands with Lao Wang and said goodbye, ending the meeting.
Su Mo was not idle afterwards. He immediately went to the Magic City and registered Su Tang Technology Co., Ltd. in the Magic City.
It is also located in the IFC Building, where there are vacant floors that can be used as headquarters.
The business scope of Su Tang Technology Co., Ltd. includes but is not limited to new energy technology, AI technology, computer technology, artificial intelligence technology, lithography technology, chip technology, biotechnology, etc.
The registered capital is 2 billion RMB, and after its establishment, it immediately began recruiting employees.
It is really easy for Su Tang to recruit people now, especially in China. Its generous treatment and good working environment attract many talents.
Previously, Su Tang's industries, apart from electric vehicles, did not involve much high-tech.
However, those real high-tech talents will not choose Su Tang for employment, because Su Tang does not have the space for them to display their talents and it would be a waste of what they have learned throughout their lives.
In their eyes, Su Mo was just a lucky upstart, or a businessman with vision.
But everything changed after Su Mo won the Noel Award.
Su Mo is a scientific genius in their hearts and the best physicist in the country.
Don’t underestimate this identity. It is very important in the eyes of people engaged in scientific and technological research and development in China.
So when Su Tang entered the high-tech industry, many top talents in the field soon chose to apply for the job.
At the job application site, Su Mo even saw many people who had returned from overseas, who came specifically for the Su Tang brand.
However, Su Mo does not accept everyone. Ability is important, but favorability is equally important.
I posted the recruitment information on Weibo and Moyin, and many people came because of me. Logically, they should have a good impression of me.
As for those whose favorability is too low or even negative, they definitely have ulterior motives and such people must not be accepted.
Su Mo is also generous in giving high salaries to those who have a high impression of him and are capable.
What is the salary standard in the same industry? Su Tang’s salary is doubled!
It must be said that this trick worked, and immediately made all the new employees cheer.
Su Tang Technology Company also grew rapidly under such circumstances.
After Su Mo recruited employees, the first thing he did was to pass on the lithography machine technology.
Based on the experience of the electric car business, we will pass on the technology to several people who have a favorable impression of us of more than 90%, to ensure that the core technology remains in our hands and will not be leaked.
Once the lithography machine is developed, chips will no longer be a problem. The current monopoly of chip technology by Europe, the United States, Japan, South Korea and other countries on my country will soon be broken.
While Su Mo was doing these things, the issue of Su Tang's account being frozen was also causing a lot of uproar in the country.
There are people who are angry, people who are sympathetic, and people who gloat over other people's misfortune.
Su Mo is basically immune to these things now. If he wants to criticize others, then go ahead. Anyway, he will be slapped in the face again soon.
Many people were involved in this matter, and it even caused quite a stir. Su Mo's haters in China were few and far between. Those who had managed to hold on until now were veteran, die-hard haters who had gone crazy.
As for the common blacks, they absolutely dare not take action easily now.
Su Mo's repeated comebacks have made the haters smarter. They no longer dare to criticize Su Mo easily, for fear of being turned into clowns again.
But there was still some movement this time, after all, this was an order issued by Obama himself.
If your account is frozen, no matter how capable you are, it will be of no use.
Therefore, some people who had grudges against Su Mo, or whose interests were damaged during Su Tang's rise, began to attack Su Mo again.
Some people believe that Su Mo is now under pressure from many sides, and bankruptcy is only a matter of time.
Some people also questioned Su Mo's wealth, believing that Su Tang's rapid rise must have involved a large amount of bank loans. Once the company goes bankrupt, the country will be the one to suffer in the end.
Of course, this can also confuse those who don’t understand. If the bank loan amount is too large, it will be difficult for the company to go public.
Several of Su Tang’s companies went public quickly, so even with bank loans, the numbers wouldn’t be that large.
All these debates reached their climax on January 10th.
Because on this day, the new issue of Forbes analysis came out.
There are two days left until the official announcement. This is an analysis article.
People had already reached a consensus before, that is, Su Mo is very likely the richest man in the world.
However, this article raises some questions.
How much money does Su Mo have? Can he become the new world's richest man?
The first sentence of the article directly mentions Su Mo.
"We all know that Su Mo is very rich. He may have surpassed Bill Gates and is about to become the new richest man in the world."
"The freezing of his overseas accounts has cast a shadow on his election."
"Before we analyze, let's take stock of Su Mo's assets."
"His Moyin company's current market capitalization is estimated at $220 billion, including $150 billion for its overseas division."
"But this assessment is skewed because all of Su Mo's overseas accounts are currently frozen, and there's no telling when they'll be unfrozen. Therefore, Forbes won't take this into consideration when making the selection."
"As for the rest of the assets, Su Mo still has Su Tang Drinking Water Company, with a current market value of approximately 130 billion US dollars. However, most of the overseas manufacturers have also had their accounts frozen, so the same applies to Mo Yin."
"And then there's his electric car company. This company has incredible potential, with a current market capitalization of approximately $200 billion, and its future is immeasurable. However, like the previous two companies, its overseas accounts have been frozen, and the company is forced to accept orders from overseas. In reality, the company is losing money, and the amount of money it's losing is enormous."
"Then there's his shipping company. We all know that Su Mo has bought a lot of ports and cargo ships. He can even use fresh water to exchange for oil in the Middle East. But apart from this part, he is still losing money because his overseas accounts are also frozen."
"So these four companies may not be taken into consideration by Forbes, and only other assets will be counted."
"Apart from these four companies, Su Mo's other wealth is not that much. According to our investigation, his Su Tang Tourism, Su Tang Film, Su Tang Guild, Su Tang Real Estate, as well as Hengdian Film and Television City, Rongcheng Taikoo Li, Shanghai IFC Building and other projects, the total value of which will not exceed 100 billion US dollars."
"And don't forget, he has several money-losing projects, including the ongoing construction of the Grand Canal in Thailand, the desalination plant in Hong Kong Island, and the Su Tang Qing Foundation, which has been burning through money."
"The Su Tang Group now has over 1.2 million employees worldwide, and its monthly fixed expenses exceed US$1 billion. Therefore, analysts believe that Su Mo's financial situation may be in deficit, and his reliance on bank loans is not groundless."
"So according to the preliminary statistics of the judging committee, Su Mo, whose overseas accounts have been frozen, currently has a wealth value of approximately US$50 billion to US$70 billion. The exact figure will have to wait for further statistics to be confirmed."
"Honestly, if Su Mo's account hadn't been frozen, his total wealth would have even exceeded $500 billion. This is a terrifying figure, a huge gap compared to other wealthy people in the world. We acknowledge Su Mo's business talent and vision, but we also regret his luck. He might not be number one in this year's Forbes rankings, because when we counted Mr. Bill Gates' wealth, his net worth has reached $80 billion, close to $90 billion."
"As for Su Mo, we can only wish him good luck, but we think we may not see him in the rankings next time."
This analysis has sparked even more heated discussions in China.
Is it possible that a super-rich man with a net worth of more than 500 billion US dollars was eliminated just like that?
At this moment, those lurking Su Hei finally mustered up the courage to jump out and started a wild and crazy carnival.
Including some foreign people, such as some people in South Korea and Japan, they were celebrating wildly, celebrating that Su Mo, this annoying guy, was about to go bankrupt.
Su Mo, who was busy, saw this article and immediately understood that this was something the American people were doing against him.
Oh, it would be strange if such an evaluation could get first place without including its own valuable companies in the statistics.
But Su Mo must get the first place.
Because the reward for being the first was so generous, it not only included the wishing scroll and the optional scroll of the grandmaster skill, but also the ghost account he had always dreamed of.
It seems that I need to use a big move.
So, the day before the Forbes selection results came out, Su Mo posted a status.
"I don't care what place I get in the Forbes ranking, but this involves the reputation of the group and the confidence of investors in the group. I have to prove it."
"Look at this, I'm not number one, so who is?"
There was a short video below the text, showing Su Mo operating a mobile app, showing an account he had at the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China.
The video is a one-shot video with the bank card balance shown on it, which is impossible to fake.
The numbers above are.
"The balance of your bank card with the last number 5588 is: 410 yuan."
When this number came out, countless netizens around the world were shocked.
They even had to rub their eyes and count carefully several times.
The final result was confirmed to be correct. The amount on Su Mo's domestic bank card actually reached over 410 billion RMB! (End of this chapter)
