Global monopoly of technology

Chapter 481 [Serial stock disaster, don't think about it if I don’t make it better]

The other Google managers attending the meeting finally realized that Luo Sheng’s move was actively exploring emerging market economies on the one hand, and in the future, he would be able to reduce his dependence on the North American market. Increasing his ability to fight will also increase his bargaining power. The North American market is bound to not abandon this market, because it is tantamount to forcing the return of old customers.

The executives present were not stupid, they quickly analyzed some of the doorways.

Put yourself in the position and think that if Google is the customers, choosing to return will not only continue to use the solutions provided by Bluestar Technology, but also avoid the emergence of potential competitors, and at the same time enjoy lower costs, it is simply a stone for those customers For three birds, there is no harm to all benefits, and vice versa.

But because a paper ban forced them to not continue to have business dealings with Bluestar Technology, then this grievance will inevitably be transferred to the North American authorities, because without this paper ban, this file will not happen now.

But the problem lies here. Even if the people present think of Luo Sheng's response strategy, they can only stare, unless the company's profits are reduced, and there are more than 200 billion cash reserves in their hands that can be used to fight Luo Sheng at any time.

However, Google’s revenue last year was only 35.9 billion U.S. dollars, while Bluestar Technology’s 203.09 billion U.S. dollars is more than 5.6 times that of Google.

Bluestar's net profit in one year is more than twice that of Google's revenue. How to fight this battle?

The company's cash reserves are even more incomparable. Bluestar Technology has a cash reserve of 221.8 billion U.S. dollars, while Google's current cash reserve is only 10.7 billion U.S. dollars. The difference in cash reserves between the two is more than 20 times.

This battle cannot be fought, and Google does not have the courage to fight it, because Luo Sheng is a lunatic.

Because there are victims ahead.

Last year, the mainframe alliance formed by Microsoft and Sony and Luo Sheng's Azure Coast fought head-on in the mainframe market. The results are all in the eyes of the industry.

Sony almost went bankrupt again, and was ridiculed by industry insiders and players. Microsoft, as the leader, lost the most. It didn't make billions of dollars in any benefits. By the way, it also lost the "Halo" series. I didn't say anything when I went in, and I also fought an extremely embarrassing lawsuit. Now there is no result, and I don't need to think about it. It must be a chicken feather.

And all of this, Microsoft's series of operations have not changed the pattern.

An executive at the meeting couldn't help but vomit strongly: "This lunatic, with such a crazy strategy, can't Wall Street and market financial investors blow up?"

"It's already exploded." Larry Page stared at the computer display in front of him and said quietly: "I watched the BTC stock trend for one minute throughout the whole process. The 1.22 billion US dollars evaporated, and the 1.22 billion US dollars per minute. No, it’s just one minute, everyone, I didn’t watch the market, but it’s definitely horrible."

The executives at the meeting also felt speechless for a while.

After that, Page couldn't help but shook his head with a wry smile, "I finally understand why Wall Street wants to control listed companies all the time and kick the founder out."

The bankers on Wall Street can't stand a head like Luo Sheng.

An executive made a speech: "US$221.8 billion, how long can he last, and how large is the scope? Is there a mathematical model?"

Eric Schmidt took a sip of water, put the cup down, and said: "Before calculating how long he can last and how large the scope is, we should first figure out how large the funds he can actually transfer?"

"Only US$221.8 billion? No, this is just Bluestar Technology, Luo Sheng and the Blue Coast Company, there are at least 70 or 80 billion US dollars, and don’t forget that he also has Shengfeng Capital, which is no less than 50 billion. U.S. dollar cash flow and life science funds are close to 20 billion U.S. dollars."

Speaking of this, Eric Schmidt added: "And there are long rumors that Luo Sheng once secretly shorted the North American housing market in 2007, and made a lot of money and left the market safely. If this is true, God, God knows how many billions of dollars he has harvested? How much wealth has been added over the years?"

Everyone at the meeting couldn't help but smack their lips secretly.

The rumors of Luo Sheng's short-selling subprime mortgage crisis are not new news in the top financial circles. Some people even gave him a "big short" hat, but he has not found conclusive evidence that he is short. One of the big shorts in the subprime mortgage crisis.

So far, the CIA, NSA, FBI and other institutions, including some financial institutions on Wall Street, have been investigating, trying to find out the truth.

For a person like Luo Sheng, if he could grasp a potentially huge asset to become international hot money, no one would feel uneasy, because Luo Sheng, even the smartest people on Wall Street, regarded him as a savvy person. This kind of evaluation is enough to get a glimpse of the leopard.

Sergey Brin sighed: "Even if he didn't short the subprime mortgage crisis, his definable adjustable cash reserves have exceeded 300 billion U.S. dollars. God, how can he have so much? Ability to control wealth?"

Hearing this news, Google was also a little depressed, and had to take one step and count it one step at a time. At the moment, getting the company split and reorganized is the top priority.

...

As the so-called good fortune is unparalleled, misfortunes never come singly, a series of bad news continue to dampen the confidence of the stock market, resulting in continuous stock market disasters.

Bluestar Technology announced that cloud computing service fees and advertising fees will be reduced by 30%, and the group company’s overall service fee will be reduced to 22.3%. This strategy of giving benefits to customer groups to increase the international competitiveness of Bluestar Technology has resulted in the result It is the company's own revenue and profits that have been further hit, which is bad news for Wall Street and investors.

Affected by this news, the market value of Bluestar Technology Group evaporated another 145 billion US dollars, the market value plummeted to 735.22 billion US dollars, and the market value was once again cut by half.

Countless investors who fell in the serial stock market saw the rhythm of heartbreak.

History has always been surprisingly similar, and Bluestar Technology’s stock once again staged a panic sell-off.

There is no good news, but bad news one after another. This is not the last one.

Then came another bad news that gave the market a critical hit.

The Blackstone Group, also known as the BlackRock Group, which has the title of risk control master and king of risk control in the asset management industry, published a "Bluestar Technology Risk Assessment Report". This report has increased the panic in the market. .

Why does a company with a market value of less than 70 billion U.S. dollars in the Blackstone Group have such a powerful influence?

In a sense, market value is important to a company, but sometimes it really doesn't make much sense.

In the financial circle, Blackstone manages funds that exceed the total GDP of Japan, and its asset scale is almost unmatched in the asset management industry, even surpassing many famous banks and insurance companies.

Apple, McDonald's, Shell, including Bluestar Technology, etc., these star-rated multinational companies that people often hear today, Blackstone is one of their largest single shareholders.

Blackstone is a buyer company, it can also be said to be a technology company, and the king of risk control. It not only retreated from the subprime mortgage crisis, but also played a role in saving the market. Last year, the Bluestar Technology Group caused a "black swan" when the thunderstorm occurred. In the event, Blackstone retired once again and played a role as a rescuer, becoming a "shadow seedling". Its vision of mergers and acquisitions along the way has achieved its dominance in the asset management industry.

It can be seen how powerful the evaluation report issued by the Blackstone Group is.

According to this report, the North American market is the largest single source of revenue for Bluestar Technology Group, accounting for 35% of its annual revenue. Last year, Bluestar Technology’s revenue was only an astronomical figure of US$71.08 billion in the North American market.

The Blackstone Group’s risk assessment report for Bluestar Technology Group is that, affected by this incident, Bluestar Technology’s revenue in the North American market this year will be reduced to only about US$15 billion, which means that only the impact of the North American market will be Let Bluestar Technology earn $56 billion less.

But this is not the most serious. According to Blackstone’s assessment report, Bluestar Technology still has a higher unknown risk. Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom, and New Zealand are very likely to impose a cooperation ban on Bluestar Technology soon afterwards. , And even the Eurozone has certain follow-up possibilities.

The final conclusion of this risk assessment of Blackstone is that Bluestar Technology Group’s revenue this year will likely be cut to only US$95 billion, while its annual net profit will fall from US$72 billion to US$26.6 billion.

When such a report is published, investors are almost desperate.

But many people have overlooked one point. Even if the revenue and profit are both doubled, the net profit of 26.6 billion US dollars ranks in the top five of the world's top 500 companies, and it is still one of the most profitable companies in the world.

Who makes Bluestar Technology's current size incredible?

But humans are unsatisfied creatures.

The release of an article made the market value of Bluestar Technology evaporate more than 1755.6 billion US dollars. The current market value has fallen below 559.62 billion US dollars, and it is about to fall below the red line of the last explosion.

The domestic people who eat melons are stunned. Seeing the market value of Bluestar Technology, it drops to hundreds of billions at every turn. It is almost shocking.
