Chapter 883: Press Conference

Google's listing has been scheduled and will be listed on the Nasdaq stock market in early August.

And the valuation of this company is naturally not low, according to the listing price of the stock, the company will reach a valuation of 30 billion US dollars.

From the stock market, billions of dollars in cash will also be raised.

It just so happens that it can be used to pay for the investment in Facebook North America.

............

Yu Wenfei nodded and said that there was no problem, originally this kind of large-scale financing, the time required to go through various procedures would not be short.

For more than a month, it may not be done yet.

Since the four companies on the scene all said that they had no objections, the next thing was easy to do.

Facebook North America's original share capital was set at 1.2 billion shares, and 800 million new shares were issued, bringing the total share capital to 2 billion shares.

Facebook Mainland holds 1.2 billion shares, accounting for 60% of the shares, through offshore fund companies.

Microsoft, Google, the Walton family, and Citibank each hold 200 million shares, accounting for 10% of the shares!

The four of them will also inject $2 billion into Facebook North America within the time specified in the contract.

Now Facebook North America can be described as "strong and strong", there is no longer pressure and resistance, and it has a huge amount of $8 billion in the account, so it can show its strength.

San Francisco IT Vision Magazine.

"Susan, I just received notice that Facebook North America has a media conference tonight. It is said that the company has just carried out equity expansion financing and introduced several heavyweight strategic partners, so you can go over and interview them. ”

The editor-in-chief stood at the door of his office and shouted at the large office area.

A young girl stood up and waved in response, "Roger, head! I'll be over in the afternoon, and I'll be sure to come up with an interview that satisfies your old man." By the way, is that legendary Mr. Fei here? I want to give him an interview. ”

The editor-in-chief grinned and said loudly: "Here, all the high-level executives of Facebook headquarters are here." Seriously, if you can really get an interview with Mr. Fei, I'll give you a raise!"

Susan's face was overjoyed, "I've written it down, don't be reckless then." ”

The editor-in-chief waved his hand, indicating that it was completely fine.

In the IT industry in North America, with the rise of Facebook Games, the listing of Facebook, and the rapid expansion of Facebook North America.

The name Yu Wenfei also slowly began to become popular in the circle.

A lot of people talk about his legendary experience.

Yu Wenfei's age, status as a college student, and the behemoths he controls that are still lurking under the surface of the water have attracted a lot of media attention.

Of course, his former idol writer status and the songs he sang were also mentioned by the media in the circle as celebrity anecdotes.

............

Susan was a young girl, young, beautiful, and full of energy.

She is also a star chaser, but she is not chasing stars in the entertainment industry, but big stars in the IT industry!

Previously, she admired the two founders of Google, Larry Page and Sergey.

This pair of brothers can be described as the "American dream" of typical American youth.

From scratch, it has created a burgeoning internet empire in just a few years!

Google is about to go public, and once it does, the company's market capitalization will reach or exceed $30 billion.

And the two founders will become tens of billions of billionaires!

So, Susan adored them very much and regarded them as her idols.

She once wrote an article in her IT Vision magazine, proudly declaring that Larry Page and Sergey are not only the pride of the United States, but also the pride of the world!

Only in an open and civilized country like the United States can such a miracle be born!

This remark has also been recognized by many people.

Unfortunately, in the past year, more and more people don't think so.

Because a young man who is even better than Larry Page and Sergey has come out!

That person is naturally Yu Wenfei.

If you compare Yu Wenfei with Larry Page and Sergei, even Susan has to admit that Yu Wenfei is an all-round winner.

In terms of age, Yu Wenfei is only 21 years old, and Google is almost thirty years old.

In terms of career, not to mention other industries controlled by Yuwenfei, just a Facebook network, listed earlier than Google, and the market value is also higher!

In terms of talent, Susan knows that Yu Wenfei published several books when he was in high school, and he has occupied the top position in the sales list of the Chinese book publishing market for many years!

The two songs he wrote and composed by himself were widely sung in the mainland!

Even if it is compared to appearance, although the aesthetics of the East and the West are different, after seeing Yu Wenfei's photos and interview videos, Susan has to admit that at least in terms of demeanor, Yu Wenfei is better than Larry Page and Sergei, the two IT otaku......

When Yu Wenfei appeared in public, he was in a suit and leather shoes, elegant and easy-going.

From head to toe, even the strictest etiquette experts can't find anything wrong with it.

But what about Sergey and Larry Page, the quintessential IT otaku, perennial T-shirts and jeans.

Occasionally wearing a suit, it is also loose and ill-fitting, like a child stealing his father's suit to wear.

How can this be compared......

............

It was because of Yu Wenfei's appearance that Susan's idol dream was shattered, so she was actually hostile to Yu Wenfei.

Because in her concept, such an outstanding genius should not appear in that poor and backward place in China!

It will not change the appearance of such an ungodly Internet company as Facebook!

............

Sheraton San Francisco Hotel, the No. 1 conference hall is full of guests and friends.

Here, this is the scene of Facebook's North America press conference.

After receiving the notice from Facebook North America, well-known media in the United States basically rushed to the scene.

After all, many large media outlets have press offices in San Francisco, and they don't need to send people from headquarters.

With the anticipation of many reporters, the time came to 8 o'clock in the evening, and the press conference was officially held.

Lu Qi, Cai Congxin, Ballmer, Jim Walton, William Rhodes, and Larry Page appeared together, stood in a row, smiled and waved to the media reporters in the audience.

Seeing the familiar characters who appeared on the stage, there was an uproar in the audience.

Susan was also surprised, why did even Larry Page come?

Could it be that Google is also going to join forces with Facebook?

"Mr. Ballmer, are you representing Microsoft and investing in Facebook North America?"

"May I ask Mr. Walton, your family is in the supermarket business, why did you appear in this place? Is Wal-Mart going to transform into an e-commerce business?"

"Mr. William, Citibank is already one of the shareholders of Facebook, in what capacity are you here this time?"

There was chaos in the audience.
