Global monopoly of technology

Burn more money than the company's online streaming business?

When everyone heard it, they couldn't help but be surprised secretly. You must know that so far, the most expensive module of Bluestar Technology is the online video business segment.

This still has not reached an agreement with major entertainment companies on copyright issues. If copyright videos are introduced, it will be an astronomical expense.

Luo Sheng looked around everyone and said: "The company is rich and lacks money now, so I decided that the company will not pay dividends this year, nor will it pay dividends next year. In the next five, ten, or twenty years there will be no dividends, not only will it not. For dividends, we will also issue bonds in the name of the company to raise funds."

As soon as this was said, everyone looked at each other. No dividends will be paid for ten or twenty years. That is to say, if you want to wait for the shares of Bluestar Technology to pay dividends, don't think about it. The executives present are all Bluestar Technology. Of the shareholders, everyone’s options have not been fully converted into real shares, but some of them have been converted into real shares through exercise.

The company decides whether to distribute dividends or not, of course, the board of directors has the final say, and the board of directors is Luo Sheng.

He said that he would not pay dividends, and he would definitely not be paid.

However, everyone did not feel wrong, because the dividend is far less than the high return of the stock price appreciation, and the ratio in hand is a few tenths of a few thousandths. It is very good to divide it down to a few hundred thousand a year. Promoting the doubling of the stock price and cashing out at will is a tenfold profit.

Shareholders want both stock appreciation gains and dividends, which is impossible for Luo Sheng.

Debt issuance is also necessary. This year, the richer the company, the more it must issue debt. In Luo Sheng's last life, the trillion-dollar market capitalization of Apple, and one or two hundred billion in cash reserves are still issuing external debt.

Is Apple short of money?of course not!

Even in this life, even now, Apple, under the leadership of the Joe Gang, has not paid dividends for more than a decade.

Irene spoke at this time: "But the law stipulates that the company must pay dividends once within five years."

Luo Sheng opened his hand and smiled: "Once in five years, it doesn't matter, just divide it. Then divide the dividend once in five years, and divide it once...5 million, not US dollars, soft sister coins."

Everyone: "..."

Some investors who want to wait for the dividends of Bluestar Technology stocks will definitely get angry if they hear this.

At this time, Luo Sheng put aside his careless attitude, and sat down, looking around everyone seriously and said: "All of you here are not only the actual managers of the company, but also the shareholders. I said at the meeting about the dividend, and I also made an advance. Prevent the vaccination. Dividends are small gains and small losses. Throughout history, 90% of listed companies in the world will pay dividends in 1985, and this year's ratio was only one-third."

Luo Sheng sat back on his chair again and added: “The non-distribution of dividends for listed companies is a new international trend. I am not blindly following the new trend, nor will I go against the general trend. This is correct. For shareholders, it is even more important. The important and better return is a stock price increase, not a dividend. What is the share-based dividend? How much is the stock price doubled? Right?"

Everyone nodded silently. Luo Sheng's words are indeed correct. If you are worried that the stock market will not be good in the future, then sell a part of it for cash now. The cash amount may exceed the dividend income in the next 20 years or even longer, which is quite Yu has received dividends for 20 years in advance and still holds most of the stocks.

Concentrating the net profit in the company's cash pool for the development of the company, thereby increasing the stock price, the return rate of stock price rise will always be greater than the dividend, this is beyond doubt.

It is impossible for this end to enjoy the benefits of rising stock prices and the other end to enjoy dividends.

As long as Luo Sheng is at the helm of this company, this will never happen.

Shareholders must be unhappy, especially major shareholders, who will definitely oppose it. People are greedy.

But Luo Sheng didn't care if they were upset, and they didn't even think about it.

Luo Sheng's idea is very simple. Transform the core management thinking. If it can't be transferred, then slap it off and not beep too much.

Even as the co-founder Xu Yong, if he dared to yell at dividends, Luo Sheng would still not hesitate. If he is kind, how can he be indecisive if he is not in charge?

However, the management team said after Luo Sheng said that everyone had doubts in their minds, but they have now been resolved.

Because relatively speaking, they are not large shareholders like Wall Street, and dividends are indeed the lowest yield for them.

On the contrary, if the stock price is increased, their returns will be higher.

Xu Yong must be a major shareholder. As the co-founder of Bluestar Technology, he still holds 2.96% of BTC shares after cashing out, making him the company's second largest individual shareholder after Luo Sheng.

But for Xu Yong, this has made him very satisfied. The wealth he possesses is already an astronomical figure, and in his eyes it is already a string of figures.

"Let's talk about new projects. This year, we will strive to achieve the 100 billion mark of market value. There must be a big move this time.

Xu Yong did not let Luo Sheng down. At this moment, he decisively jumped out to cooperate with Luo Sheng. Over the years, he has also grown up a lot with Luo Sheng in the "training". As a co-founder, he is unwaveringly standing with Luo Sheng. On the same front, it is the co-founder who is going to help the boss instead of making trouble. This is the biggest achievement Xu Yong has summed up now.

When the senior management at the meeting heard this, they immediately put aside their thoughts, wanted to get more benefits, and tried their best to make the company bigger and stronger than everything else, so everyone unanimously looked towards the big boss.

After hearing this, Luo Sheng smiled: "The company's stock price may fluctuate greatly in the next period of time, so don't worry about it, because once this project is started, the market may not be optimistic. I want to achieve a stock price of 100 billion US dollars this year. It depends on whether the market has confidence in us."

I don’t know if the market is confident, but the managers present are absolutely confident.

In particular, Feng Yi and others, who followed Luo Sheng all the way in the early days, have blindly confident and admired him.

After another moment, Luo Sheng looked at everyone and said: “During the global roadshow of our company’s IPO, a relatively low-key e-commerce company in North America silently launched a new product service in March this year. , Called... Elastic Computing Cloud Service. Well, who knows? Who has followed?"

Everyone couldn't help but look at each other. Most of them had never heard of it. At that time, they had no time to pay attention to this.

But it's not all. Just as Luo Sheng's half-selling approach was to attract the attention of others, Zhang Bowen who was present at the meeting immediately said uncertainly: "Mr. Luo, is the company you are talking about as a North American e-commerce Amazon company?"

Luo Sheng glanced at Zhang Bowen in surprise, then nodded and smiled: "Yes, it's the Amazon company that started by selling books."

After drinking, he continued: "[Elastic Computing Cloud Service] This is a new concept, but as long as you pay attention to the development history of the IT industry, you should know about Sun Microsystems. This technology can be traced back to 1988. John Gage, the co-founder of Sun Microsystems, first proposed the concept of'the network is the computer' in 1988."

"If you go back further, it may be that IBM launched the IBM-PC in 1979. Computers have spread from enterprises to individuals, and users can have their own personal computers."

"Then I will combine the'elastic computing cloud service' with the'network is a computer', and use a new term [CloudComputing], which translates to [cloud computing]."

cloud computing?

Everyone could not help chanting this new concept term silently in their hearts, which was quite novel for a while.

The boss always likes to come up with some new concepts. For example, new terms such as [web2.0] and [self-media] are now spread word of mouth in the industry and are eagerly cited.

Because it is really easy to use, but also concise.

After a while, Xu Yong said, "I know from Sun. I have the impression that the boss said that, "The network is a computer" was first proposed as a concept in the late 1990s. It is true."

Xu Yong turned to Luo Sheng and added: "But this is still a concept until now. This technology has only been considered to be applicable to supercomputers. Can ordinary Internet users enjoy such cloud computing services? I'm afraid I will have to wait a long time before it is realized."

Luo Sheng said: "Cloud computing is not strictly a cutting-edge technology concept, but there is no doubt that it will be born and applied, and it will definitely change the world and bring unimaginable terrorist benefits. What is the most valuable in the new century? You might say talent? Core technology? Yes, but not at all, but data! Big data is the most valuable!"

It is another new concept term that is thrown out, big data, cloud computing, everyone can't understand it.

When Luo Sheng saw this, he thought about it, and said, "Let’s tell you this. Why is QQ's advertising monetization ability as a social product extremely poor, and BlueSpace is now able to do so every quarter. We bring billions of dollars in revenue? Huh?"

Everyone looked at each other.

Is it because of big data?
