Global monopoly of technology

Chapter 718 [Expansion of the Horizon]

As time goes by, the time for the first quarter report of 2018 has arrived as scheduled, and the Q1 financial reports of major listed companies have been released one after another.

Bluestar Technology also routinely disclosed the company’s financial audit reports. The first quarter’s global total revenue was US$90.15 billion, which was the first time that its revenue in a single quarter exceeded the integer threshold of US$90 billion, setting a 21.18% chain growth rate and net profit of US$17.9 billion. , The net profit was 19.86%.

The performance report that far exceeded the expectations of Wall Street analysts helped the market value of Bluestar Technology rush to the 2.5 trillion US dollar mark for the first time, creating history again.

The Nasdaq Index, which also made history with one of them, also rushed above the 10,000-point integer mark. The major technology giants in the "BANG+" index concept such as Bluestar Technology, Amazon, and Microsoft Companies such as these are all listed on NASDAQ and have a great weight.

Now it is no exaggeration to say that as long as Bluestar's stock price collapses, technology stocks will have to follow the collapse, and then properly pull the Nasdaq into the water and collapse together, and vice versa.

Although there was a deep "V" trend at the beginning of the year, in general, the stock market in the United States has been bullish in the past ten years, and the stock market has repeatedly set new highs.

But behind the prosperity of the stock market, from another perspective, it is also a reflection of the North American economy's serious de-realization to the virtual. A very strange phenomenon is that often when the real economy goes up, the stock market plummets; when the real economy goes down , The stock market soared.

Many people have tried to use economic theories to explain this problem. In the end, it was not as thorough as the uncle at the entrance of the village said: when the economy is good, they will go out to work, and when the economy is bad, they will gather at the entrance of the village to gamble.

The stock market in the United States has continued to prosper and hit new highs repeatedly, but the real economy represented by the manufacturing industry has been declining.

By the end of April this year, the North American capital market was once again excited. An emerging giant technology company will rush to the New York Stock Exchange for IPO this month. It is a subsidiary of the Blue Coast, namely PureLiFi, a wireless communication technology research and development company. This company has been in existence for six years.

No one thought that PureLiFi, which was not seen by Eouzhou Capital, would grow to such a huge scale today. The capitalists of Eouzhou had already pinched their thighs N times, and Luo Sheng basically belonged to the Lying Win series.

In this month's science and technology world, PureLiFi founder Hyland Haas can be described as high-spirited, and the limelight is temporary. If there is one, then Luo Sheng can only be added.

On Friday, April 27, 2018, PureLiFi officially launched its first IPO under the attention of the day. The main board of the company is the New York Stock Exchange with the stock code LIFI.

The initial price is US$67, 317 million shares are issued, and the total initial fundraising is US$21.2 billion. Its IPO scale is second only to Ali in the past five years, and it is also the largest IPO fundraising this year.

The lead underwriters for the first IPO are Hengxin International Investment Bank, Citi Global Markets, Credit Suisse Securities, Deutsche Bank, and Morgan Securities.

PureLiFi has soared 48% on its first day of listing, with a market value of over US$260 billion, making it the 10th largest listed company in the US stock market, second only to Magnesium Bank.

The founder Hyland Haas's nominal value has therefore reached 46.8 billion U.S. dollars, ranking 19th in the Forbes list of the world's richest people.

The New York Stock Exchange is very decisive. PureLiFi is included in the "BANG+" index concept. The companies in this basket of stocks are all world-renowned multinational technology giants. The entry threshold for scale is $200 billion in market value. Any one of the companies in the industry, whether in terms of scale or influence, is an absolute leader.

After the "BANG+" index was launched, it has been deeply loved by value investors. Excellent technology companies have already made money and have high growth. Especially after PureLiFi joined the club, the company's growth can be said to be the highest so far Yes, the "BANG+" index also has more upside potential.

The vast majority of investors agree that the future of PureLiFi must be a technology giant that can reach 500 billion US dollars, which means that its future does not need to wait long to double its share price.

...

While the major media and capital markets are focusing on PureLiFi, Lyle Binary has produced the first batch of bee swarm drones, a total of 1244, and delivered them to the Five Corners Building this month.

"BOSS, a person called Horizon Security Company is visiting. They want to purchase a batch of swarm drones and hope to place an order as soon as possible."

In Menlo Park, California, Marcus Lyell’s assistant entered his office and reported the incident.

In fact, he knew about this a long time ago, and he also knew that the head of Horizon Security also worked for the same owner. After all, they were all connected to the Internet, and a piece of assistance to the owner Luo Sheng to operate the Earth OL..

Marcus Lyle pretended not to know and asked, "How much do they want?"

The assistant replied: "122 million dollars."

Marcus Lyle asked again: "Is this company's information clear? Does it meet the procurement requirements?"

The assistant replied: "It has been investigated clearly and meets the legal requirements."

Marcus Lyle: "No problem, then find someone to sign with them and supply them at the end of the year."

The purchase volume of more than US$100 million, which is more than two thousand drones, is completely sufficient for the current Horizon Security company. It also has to purchase ammunition, which in general will cost about US$300 million.

There is no barrier to purchase. As long as Horizon Security is not an enterprise from China, and there is still a competitive relationship, military industry companies in the United States and the United States do not want Horizon to buy Luo Sheng's drones and related accessories.

The seven new bionics have joined Horizon Security and served in the senior management level, laying a stable foundation for further expansion.

However, it is far from enough to solve the personnel problem of the senior management. What follows is the expansion of the front-line "thugs" members, and the corresponding weapons and equipment have to be purchased, and these all lead to a problem-money.

Counting on Horizon Security’s own current business income, it is almost indefinite to grow to be comparable to the current blackwater company or even beyond, and it is necessary to accelerate expansion and growth through the injection of external funds.

...

Science and technology complex building, underground laboratory.

"How can the money be sent to the horizon reasonably..." Luo Sheng muttered to himself while sitting on a chair. He was worrying about this matter these days.When it comes to these unknown layouts, Luo Sheng will think about it alone in the underground laboratory.

Don't let anyone know about these things, but at the moment the beautiful No. 2 tool Renmeizhi is giving his master a back massage.

The current asset scale of Horizon Security is only about 3.6 billion U.S. dollars, which cannot reach the expansion scale that Luo Sheng wants, and the funds will bottom out soon.

Luo Sheng is not short of money. He is super rich. With his current size, even if the annual budget for the horizon is equal to the Russian military expenditure of about 50 billion US dollars a year, he can easily support it for nearly half a century. The current asset scale of the family fund has reached 2 trillion US dollars, and Qin Weimu is still using this money to make money.

How to send money reasonably is the biggest problem. Direct and large-scale capital injection is definitely not feasible. From the perspective of pure capital pursuit of profit, such investment behavior is obviously counterintuitive. With such a large-scale investment in a security company, the payback cycle is almost indefinite, so it is better to buy Bluestar Technology stock.

Obviously, any normal investor would not do this, and there is no explanation.

If this is really done, there must be other conspiracies. Some interested people in the outside world are not fools, and they will definitely investigate this, especially the old American intelligence agencies.

"It can only be done with windfall wealth..." Luo Sheng thought for a long time that only this strategy would work, and immediately patted the little hand of the tool girl paper on his right shoulder, making him stop and say: " Get the tablet."

"Okay, Master."

After a while, the tool girl handed the tablet, Luo Sheng opened the global map and scanned the land of Africa, and finally settled in the North African generation, to be precise, Lipia.

After the death of Ka Dazuo, the country is currently in chaos.

Luo Sheng’s strategy is simple. Horizon Security has a business in the local area and has been active here very early to undertake small-scale agent war services and private security consulting services.

That's simple. Fortunately, I got unexpected information and found Ka Dazuo's small treasury treasure in the local area. There were hundreds of tons of gold in it, all of which were transported away by the Horizon Company.

As for the question that Lipia will ask Horizon to pay back the money, I'm sorry, but I won't give it. You can hit me if you have the ability.

The local warlords, big and small, are all calculated on the basis of a hundred, not to mention the scattered sand now, even when Ka Dazuo is there, as long as you leave Lipia, you can get Horizon Security.

"Ok, deal."

Luo Sheng made the decision very decisively. Everyone knows that Ka Dazuo was very wealthy during his lifetime. The legend of Ka Dazuo’s golden treasure was circulated in Lipia, and there were many treasure hunters, but for the people who were already cold. Ka Da Zuo will not jump out to clarify this issue.
