Chapter 103: Change
After entering May 2006, Zhou Shi felt like a dream, and good things followed. This is not only Zhou Shi's increase in wealth and popularity, but also not only the confirmed cover character of Times Magazine, but also the final surge of London copper, this time it finally rushed to 8800 US dollars, and after receiving a call from Peng Guoyu, Zhou Shi hurriedly asked them to close their positions. The average closing price was above $8,500, and after deducting miscellaneous fees such as shares, $250 million appeared in his account. Four Elephant Fund also shocked the entire financial circle in Hong Kong after this transaction. You must know that under Zhou Shi's repeated requests, they also bought 1,500 lots of London copper together, and this time they made a profit of 130 million US dollars. It took less than three months to make a profit of 1 billion Hong Kong dollars, which is not a result, but it is obviously rare to get such a big profit with such a small amount of money.
With such a record, I believe that the funds under their control will be greatly improved. In a place like Hong Kong Island, there is never a shortage of money, and there are always people who are willing to take risks. However, the capital is large, and it must not be as risky as before, and the fixed income department must also be formed, and the ratio of it to stocks and futures will be roughly three-three-three, and the remaining one will be reserved for foreign exchange.
Xin Chuan Zhou Shi had the foresight to open an account with UBS, so that this huge profit was kept very secret. But the unspeakable pressure still made it difficult for him to sleep peacefully. In just a few years, from 100,000, 10,000,000, to more than 100 million dollars in profit this time. Zhou Shi felt that this was not only a harvest of funds, but also a leap of life. Even if he doesn't have to do the math, he knows that his net worth is more than $1 billion. He has become the richest group of people in China, or the richest people in the world.
But the flowers are blooming, the fire is cooking, the prosperity is declining, and good things will never be taken up by one person. He has more worries about the future. The memory of the future can play a smaller and smaller role in running a business, after the idea becomes a reality, the most important thing is to execute, a first-class team plus a third-rate idea is obviously better than a perfect idea plus a third-rate team. Zhou Shi doesn't know how good his team is, will he only blossom and not bear fruit if he sows seeds everywhere at home and abroad? Will he be able to maintain his current position?
And Zhou Shi keenly felt that Zuckerberg's attitude towards him had changed subtly, and he was much more tempted by him. Why Zack, a psychology major, behaved like this, Zhou Shi could hardly guess, but the memory of Zack in his previous life became clear.
The future Zuckerberg is very scary, and among all the richest people in the world, he is definitely the one who is most keen on showmanship. And his image to the public has always been a cute programmer who loves to wear solid color T, sunny and fraternal. But can he really rely on his kindness and love to become the youngest billionaire in the United States and make his Facebook the absolute hegemon of the world's social networking sites?
In fact, Zuckerberg has an elite photography team, and each of his life photos has been carefully crafted by the public relations team. He knows how to use data to maintain his public image. He has a team that monitors the reaction of people across the country on Facebook after each of his remarks to prepare for his next move. So, the Zuckerberg you see, the kind of rustic and people-friendly image, every detail is carefully manipulated with a lot of dollar bills.
After Facebook went public in the previous life, the stock price fell for a year, and Zucker bought another part of it, so that his equity reached 29%, although I don't know how much Zuckerberg's later cashed out funds increased, assuming that the value-added part was not less than the increase in Facebook's stock price, then his net worth had exceeded $150 billion before Zhou Shi's rebirth.
However, the path chosen by Zhou Shi is full of uncertainties, and the future development is difficult to be smooth sailing. What kind of experience will it be when his fortune is caught up by Zach?
Zhou Shi, who is deeply troubled by his own development, is still developing YouTube at a steady pace, not in a hurry or impatient. One of the things he admires about Google is that I'm constantly improving myself, and it's their business what my competitors do, and I just have to be myself.
YouTube, which received financial support, allowed several media companies to put down their bodies and enter the negotiating table with YouTube again, but this time the sincerity of both sides of the negotiation was much greater. However, Zhou Shi is too lazy to meddle in specific matters, as long as it is good for the development of YouTube, he can still accept the short-term loss of interests.
As for globalization, Zhou Shi vetoed Sequoia and Google's idea of one step, first occupy the European market, and then talk about it, Cheng Shijun and others changed a little surprised him, as if he had relaxed a lot all of a sudden, overtime was common in the past, and discussing the development of the company was also focused and devoted. Although they are still working the same overtime, he always feels that they are not as focused as before.
The development of Twitter is still not hot, and Zhou Shi is not in the mood to take care of them for the time being. Time novels and time music began to exert force under the auspices of Li Ying. The development of DNF is also step by step, with a good word-of-mouth effect, although it is not as good as the wonderful 3D world of World of Warcraft, but it is much stronger than the journey, and this longevity game, Zhou Shi resolutely stopped them from any measures to kill chickens and eggs. Development has been slow, but every step has been steady.
Also during this period, due to the widespread heated discussions in the media at home and abroad, Zhou Shi successfully incorporated Wang Yin of Tsinghua University, this guy is amazing, his glorious deeds include being sent to Tsinghua University Department of Computer Science Software for master's and doctoral studies, and then Tsinghua University, Cornell University, Indiana University Bloomington during the doctoral study three times out of school, two internships at Google, and Microsoft work, but in the end they all froze. Of course these are not the main ones, the important thing is that this guy is a genius. For example, "When I was still at IUB, Wang Yin worked as an intern at Google twice for 4 months each time. One of the things I did was a tool that searched all the project codes within Google, and Wang Yin was in charge of the Python search part. It took him a week or so to come up with a prototype and complete the entire project, which now indexes all of Google's Python code every day. Steve Yegge, who was in charge of the project, was initially skeptical of Wang's idea, but eventually supported and admitted that Wang's project was "the most technologically advanced Steve he has encountered in his 20 years with interns." ”
Some people commented that this guy is an idealistic genius, and Zhou Shi doesn't know if it's true, but he must try it, give himself and Wang Yin a chance, in case this guy is really a genius, then he will make a lot of money. However, this guy is not very good-tempered, and he may need to be restrained, I hope he can be a little more restrained, so that the talents in both soft and hard aspects of Guoke mobile phone can cooperate with each other to form a good chemical reaction.
