Rebirth of the Tech Madman

Chapter 234: The wealth myth of Apple listing

"I'm not going anymore. I have already picked up a scene from Xiangjiang. The other party is very sincere and will come to San Francisco for shooting. I have to prepare carefully." Lin Qingxian tactfully refused, and finally smiled. , "Even if you fly over, I won't go."

"Why is Tang Huan looking for you?" Seeing her daughter put down the phone and walked back to the sofa to sit down, Mother Lin asked casually.

"Let me accompany him to see what stocks are listed in New York. He said that he is about to make more than 100 million U.S. dollars. I am very excited. I need a friend to accompany me to share the joy of harvest." Lin Qingxia picked up the script and smiled. Reply.

"Over 100 million U.S. dollars? Does Tang Huan make money in 100 million units?" Lin Lixia screamed, jumped over, took her sister's arm and shook her a few times, and asked with small stars in her eyes. It's such a spectacular thing, why don't you go and watch the excitement."

"What's so interesting, it's not our own career achievement." Lin Qingxian picked up the script and slapped her sister angrily.

"If you marry him and become a family, then it will also become a common achievement." Lin Lixia muttered unconvinced.

"It's okay not to go. It's okay to date here in San Francisco. It's too far in New York. It's not good for men and women." Mother Lin expressed her opinion, "If you say Tang Huan, this young man, no matter how you look at it. It's all pleasing to the eye, that is, if he doesn't smile and talk to you, he will feel as if he is facing a big mountain, and he can't see what he is thinking."

Seeing her mother nagging and shaking her head, Lin Qingxian pursed her lips and shook the script in her hand, "You are so noisy, I'm going to figure out the script by myself."

Lin Lixia smiled. He bounced after it.

"What are you doing with you?" Lin Qingxian sat in front of the dressing table and glared at her sister.

"I'm curious, why did you directly refuse Tang Huan's invitation. Didn't you attend the American president's banquet together some time ago? It's all the same lively." Lin Lixia leaned over, staring at her sister's eyes and asked.

"This time is different. I feel that if I go, it will be dangerous." Lin Lixia pushed her sister's pretty face away, "Don't you gossip, okay."

"Well, no gossip." Lin Lixia nodded obediently, "You tell me, what is danger?"

"Smelly girl, you've been a ghost since you were a kid, and now you pretend to be so stupid. You want to get a fight." Lin Lixia pressed her sister to the bed angrily, threatening angrily.

"Brother Baoyu, spare your life." Lin Lixia yelled, so scared that Lin Qingxia quickly let go, "Don't shout, I don't want to be scolded with you."

Lin Lixia stood up triumphantly, carrying her hands on her back, pacing, and said old fashionedly: "Miss Lin, you always run away like an ostrich, and it is impossible for you to refuse to face the problem. Aunt Qiong Yao's literary movies are not In reality, if Tang Huan is so indecisive and can't control the situation, how can someone make more than 100 million yuan. I dare to pack a ticket. He is very likely to come to you, and there is no way he wants to run."

"Then I will accept my fate." Lin Qingxia snorted angrily, "Anyway, I feel more and more that I am like a fish in Tang Huan's net. As long as he wants to salvage, the struggle is futile."

Seeing her sister's emotions suddenly became self-blaming, Lin Lixia felt that she was a little too amused, and quickly dropped a sentence, "I just feel it and just talk casually. Don't go to your heart, that. Keep watching you. The script..."

Then she made a face. It slipped away lightly.

Seeing her sister's weird look, Lin Qingxian chuckled and couldn't help remembering how naughty and lively the two sisters participated in the community charity event organized by the Shennong Foundation not long ago.

Alas, not only I was Tang Huan’s prey, but also a Shennong Fund. I also don’t know how many people were cheering and admiring him. What men want is the feeling of holding the moon among the stars.

Lin Qingxian shook her head vigorously and picked up the script again. This is the movie "Love Killing" that Xiangjiang director Tan Jiaming is preparing to make. After seeing it, she thought that she might be able to use this to try to change her performance style, so Just took it down.

...

However, my sister's little twitter mouth is really effective.

Early the next morning, Tang Huan went to visit, and Lin Qingxian asked in surprise, "Aren't you in New York?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Lixia, who was sitting at the dining table, chuckled, causing the whole family, except Lin Qingxia, to be inexplicable.

Seeing Lin Qingxian's gradually red face, Tang Huan was surprised, haha, "I didn't fly back here to invite you to New York."

"I haven't used breakfast yet, let's have some together." Father Lin interrupted and sent out an invitation.

"Thank you, uncle and auntie." Tang Huan smiled and nodded, and walked over to sit in the empty seat.

Lin Qingxian, who had been robbed of her seat, gave Tang Huan a stare. In addition to bringing the other party dishes and chopsticks, she had to move a chair.

"Which stock you are talking about can really be worth more than 100 million U.S. dollars?" Lin Lixia, who was sitting next to her, tilted her head and asked Tang Huan curiously.

Father Lin gave a light cough, "Don't ask about other people's commercial secrets."

"It doesn't matter. After tomorrow, the information will be out in broad daylight. It's not a commercial secret." Tang Huan smiled and waved his hand.

"What a great skill." The respectful Father Lin sighed with emotion, and the rest of the Lin family also reacted this way.

"This is called paper wealth, which is very different from the numbers in the bank passbook. After it goes public, it will definitely go up and down. You can't take it too seriously." Tang Huan was humble and chewed slowly. breakfast.

Seeing that Tang Huan would rather fly back and forth between San Francisco and New York non-stop, and also personally come to invite Lin Qingxia to watch the stock market event, Lin's father and Lin's mother can't say much, they can only let their own The daughter decides for herself.

"There is a time difference between the east coast and the west coast for several hours, let's have time." Lin Qingxian, who had accepted his fate, asked, apparently agreeing to the invitation.

"It's too late. It will be listed tomorrow. We have enough time." Tang Huan nodded, "You can also take a trip."

...

When Lin Qingxian was fooled by Tang Huan to the -l, the Waldorf Astoria Hotel, located in Midtown Manhattan, New York, which was still owned by the Hilton Hotel at this stage, and found that only one suite had been booked. Then he froze.

"What's the matter, just separate and rest." Tang Huan, who was innocent, spread out his hands grinningly.

"That won't work. Hurry up and open another guest room." Lin Qingxian used a lady's bag to hit Tang Huan, who looked a little bit ill-intentioned no matter how she looked.

"There are no rooms anymore. The guests at this hotel are either rich or expensive. So the listings have always been in short supply. I finally got a suite." Tang Huan started to shame, raised his hand and pointed upwards, "Don't believe me. The residence of the Permanent Representative of the United States to the United Nations is located on the 42nd floor, the Grand Central Station of New York Railway Station there, and the hotel’s own dedicated platform. Back then, Franklin Roosevelt, Adelaide Stevenson, Douglas MacArthur and those American dignitaries used this platform to travel or stay, even including Li Hongzhang, the earlier governor of Zhili in the Qing Dynasty."

"Don't lie to me, even if the housing is tight, you must have a way." Lin Qingxia pushed Tang Huan.

"Just treat me as saving money." Tang Huan looked miserable, "Even if the family has a big business, it will have to live a life."

"It deserves it, so many hotels, who made you stay here anymore. Besides, don't you want to make a big deal tomorrow? As for being so stingy." Lin Qingxia chuckled. Started to look at the layout of the suite, and then stood at the door of the master bedroom and imposed a ban. "Then I will live here, and I dare to plot wrongdoings, no matter what to kill."

Tang Huan smiled noncommitantly, and took Lin Qingxia's hand and kissed it lightly, "That's it, I'll order a meal."

Seeing that although Tang Huan's demeanor was close to Li, Lin Qingxian's anxiety finally calmed down. Especially after nothing happened that night, she let go of her vigilance.

...

September 12, 1980. Friday was three months ahead of the original time and space. Apple's stock is finally listed.

Due to the reverberation auction method, the bankers finally set a stock price of $22 per share, an increase of $4 from the original $18 per share.

Although Tang Huan joined the game by opportunism, the philosopher he created has boosted Apple’s performance, making it publicly issued more than 4.6 million shares in the original time and space, and financing more than 101 million US dollars. , Is the most since Ford Motor's stock went public in 1956.

Therefore, in fact, Tang Huan did not divide the interests of others. He just used the Dongfeng of Apple's listing to obtain the part that should belong to him from the extra part of the benefits.

Within a few hours, Apple's stock was snapped up, and the people at Morgan Stanley were smiling, after all, they would get a 7 percent commission from it.

Looking at a bunch of men in suits and leather shoes, discussing obscure numbers and celebrating with champagne, Lin Qingxian, who is dressed up and bright and beautiful, can't help but feel a little confused. Is this a secular pursuit different from art?

In any case, Lin Qingxian is sincerely happy for Tang Huan's achievements. Many commemorative photos have left her smiling face, and there are even intimate shots of each other's lips on each other's faces.

In the expectations of investors, Apple’s stock price rose to 35 US dollars at the close of the day, surpassing the original closing price of 29 US dollars in time and space, and the market value surpassed the original level of 1.778 billion US dollars. Songdi broke through 2 billion U.S. dollars in one fell swoop.

The wealth myth created by Apple's listing is more than that. It also made 300 people become millionaires and 4 people became billionaires.

The news spread across Wall Street like wings, and everyone couldn't help but look at it, and the four billionaires who fell from the sky have become entrepreneurial idols in the minds of countless people.

Jobs, who protected his shares like an eyeball, had a personal net worth of US$256 million. This year, he was only 25 years old.

Markkula, the most discerning angel investor, has also obtained paper wealth of more than 200 million US dollars. This year, he was 38 years old.

Tang Huan, who came out halfway through, has made great contributions to Apple Computer with his own spreadsheet software, and has earned more than US$150 million in return. This year, his actual age is also 25 years old. But on official documents, it must be younger than this age.

And the inventor, technical genius Woz. Qualifying closely followed Tang Huan. This year, he was 30 years old.

originally. As the founder of Apple, Woz has more stocks in his hands than Tang Huan, so he should not be at the bottom.

But the kind Woz noticed that Apple's internal stock distribution was unfair, especially the early group of elderly people who assembled computers in the garage were ruthlessly ignored.

Among these people, there is the best friend Daniel Kotki who went to college with Jobs and went to India with him.

So Woz launched a "Woz Project." Some shares under his name were sold at low prices, and even given to these colleagues altogether.

It is precisely because of this that Woz has slipped to fourth place.

"Mike, we are all rich." Tang Huan laughed and hugged Markkula hard.

"Yes, but you still have one or even two chances like this, because philosopher and ea have already been targeted by Wall Street." A gentleman's Markkula patted Tang Huan's shoulder reservedly.

"The foundation is too shallow. I don't dare to be too optimistic." Tang Huan poured two glasses of champagne and handed it to Markkula.

"I hope that the cooperation between us can be as close as before." The scenery of Markkula. There seems to be a faint worry.

"The ibm that enters the personal computer market will be the opponent of all vested interests. Apple is not alone." Tang Huan looked at Champagne and said slowly but firmly: "However, starting next year, a personal computer standard The battle is bound to unfold. If anyone can't keep up with this beat, it may mean being out."

"After the successful financing this time, the funds needed for Apple's operations will be more secure. And the research and development results of the Lisa project, I believe will be available soon." Markkula looked at Tang Huan. "At that time, philosopher's software will be needed to fight side by side."

"Definitely, definitely." Tang Huan smiled and nodded in answer, but sighed in his heart. A graphical user interface may be enough for you to be busy for at least two years.

When Tang Huan finished socializing, Lin Qingxia asked in a low voice, "When will we return to San Francisco?"

"Wait a minute, I have to deal with the "Wall Street Journal" interview tomorrow." Tang Huan shook Lin Qingxian's soft little hand, "Let's have a candlelight dinner in the evening and have a good celebration."

Lin Qingxian nodded helplessly, but in fact, she could not object.

...

In the romantic atmosphere of candlelight swaying, after drinking several glasses of red wine without knowing it, Lin Qingxian suddenly felt a little uneasy in her heart, especially after meeting Tang Huanliang’s brilliant eyes several times, her ears became even hotter. My heart beat, my cheeks burned like fire.

Can't drink anymore, a slightly drunk Lin Qingxian secretly warned herself that the man in front of him was very vigorous during the day and was too lethal to the woman. You can understand the subtlety when you think about the scene when the two kissed each other on the cheeks. .

Tang Huan picked up the crystal cup and said thoughtfully: "After drinking these, let's end it. You go take a bath and rest, and I will let the maid take care of it. Tomorrow the "Wall Street Journal" interview venue will be arranged here, and I will explain to the hotel. a bit."

Lin Qingxian, who was full of eyes, also picked up the crystal cup, "Congratulations again, billionaire. Among the Chinese of your age, you should be the first, right? Is it particularly sense of accomplishment?"

Seeing Lin Qingxian, who was visibly speaking more, Tang Huan smiled playfully, touched his cup with a tink, and slowly replied: "Someone shares, especially with you, that's a sense of accomplishment."

"When you do things and talk, you are always so invisible." Lin Qingxian giggled, raised the cup, and drank it heroically.

Watching Lin Qingxian get up to take a bath, Tang Huan smiled and slowly finished drinking the wine in the glass.

...

After taking a shower, the drunkenness seemed to be reduced a bit, but the thoughts in my mind became more flexible, and I felt more sensitive, and even with it, it seemed to have grown bolder.

Lin Qingxian was combing her hair while experiencing this wonderful feeling of drunkenness, and her face showed a brisk smile unknowingly.

After dealing with the trivial matters, Tang Huan gently walked into the master bedroom and walked behind Lin Qingxian, lowered his head and sniffed, looked at the beautiful face in the mirror, and sincerely admired, "It's so fragrant and beautiful! "

"It's so stinky, go take a bath." Lin Qingxia groaned.

"Yes." Tang Huan nodded, kissed Lin Qingxian's shoulder, and walked out briskly.

Listening to the sound of footsteps disappearing at the door, Lin Qingxian couldn't help but stunned. There seemed to be a problem with what she said just now, and why didn't she reprimand this guy and walked into this bedroom without permission.

Lin Qingxia's anxiety became stronger, and the woman's intuition told her that something would definitely happen next.

After being upset for a while~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Lin Qingxian, who bit her lower lip, got up and went to the bed, picked up the phone, and slowly dialed a number.

The line was connected, and then a familiar man's voice came through the microphone.

Lin Qingxia suddenly didn't know what to say, and fell silent.

"Qing Xia, is that you?"

"Yes." Lin Qingxian said with a trembling voice, "I'm going to marry someone."

After an "oh" in the microphone, there was a long silence.

After only receiving this one-word response, Lin Qingxian suddenly felt that her past infatuation was really ridiculous, and a line of tears slid down her cheeks.

The man's bathing speed was far beyond Lin Qingxian's expectation. After hearing the sound of footsteps, she buckled the microphone down and raised her hand to wipe the tears.

"Who to call, it's mysterious, isn't it the first love." Tang Huan, who had entered the master bedroom, joked. (To be continued)
