Chapter 114: 2 Billion

The direct flight from Los Angeles to Seoul is about 9,000 kilometers, it takes about 10 hours, this long voyage, a group of people are bored and start fighting the landlord, even if An Yuxi doesn't like to play cards and read for a while, he took out his notebook from his bag and began to code, and Chen Xiang on the other side has been reading newspapers, which are all newspapers issued in Asian countries recently.

Chen Xiang is reading the "Japan Times", although this is a Japanese newspaper and reports domestic news, but it is in English, and with Chen Xiang's level, the meaning is very simple.

Spread out the newspaper, the headline of the "Japan Times" was a photo of An Yuxi standing on the stage, holding an iPhone in his hand, making gestures to the audience, with the headline - "An Yuxi: IT upstart, Asia's richest artist!"

Recently, Yahoo in Japan and South Korea has cooperated to launch a statistical topic, and the statistical results have sparked heated discussions on the Internet. According to the information provided by Yahoo, as an idol star who has not announced his retirement from the entertainment industry and is still active, An Yuxi's net worth is staggering, and what is even more surprising is the speed at which he creates wealth......

“…… An Yuxi was born in 1985, Chinese-American, first appeared in the public eye, was the first single "Angel", and then the debut album "Soul" was a great success, occupying the first place on the American Billboard for more than 20 weeks, and another title song written and sung by himself was praised by music critics as a new kpop genre, a rare multi-genre combination in recent years, and then at the end of 2005, he broke away from his original studio S.M to form AWM......"

“…… According to the information disclosed to the media in the two years since An Yuxi's debut, as well as the information obtained by relevant official agencies, Yahoo confirmed that An Yuxi officially entered the professional circle in 2004, after graduating from Stanford University in the United States, he came to South Korea with the single "Angel" Self-debut, from debut, after the release of a record, to the starring completion of a TV series, AWM was established in 2005, it is understood that the registered capital of AWM.studio, the predecessor of AWM Entertainment Group, is only about 10 million US dollars, of which about half is the filming and production cost of "Wang Nan", but half a year later, "Wang Man" was released, bringing up to 100 million US dollars at the box office for AWM.studio, and then in the second half of last year, AWM.studio was reorganized and split into AWM Entertainment, AWM Music, AWM Holdings, AWM Network and many other companies, the capital has rapidly expanded from 10 million to about 300 million US dollars......"

Here, the newspaper provides a list of acquisitions announced by AWM Music, as well as valuations given by professionals after consulting with relevant economic research institutes.

Chen Xiang calculated that if AWM at that time did not count overseas funds, coupled with the brand effect of "Wang Nan", the total valuation was indeed in the range of 300 million US dollars.

She read on.

“…… According to Yahoo reporters, the head office of AWM Entertainment Group (in fact, it is not yet a group company) is supposed to be AWM Holdings, which presumably holds most of the ownership of AWM Entertainment and AWM Music - the reporter has not heard of rumors in the market that companies with AWM prefix trade shares, which shows that their equity is almost entirely in the hands of 'their own people' - and the sole proprietorship of AWM Network. Last year, AWM Music acquired a number of record companies, with a total value of more than $200 million, and at the beginning of this year, AWM Entertainment also announced that it was about to acquire South Korea's largest e-commerce company G-market, which is currently being acquired, and it is estimated that the total value of the company will exceed $900 million until the acquisition is successfully completed. ”

In the entertainment part alone, An Yuxi's net worth is more than $1 billion, and his overseas investment is also quite good. AWM Holdings is a private company and has no obligation to disclose its financial status to the public, so unfortunately we can't know for sure what overseas assets An Yu had in his name, but some of what he showed was a staggering figure. ”

According to the latest reports from the American media, the second largest social networking site in the United States, where An Yuxi served as CEO, currently has about 35 million users, and the valuation given by relevant institutions confirms that Facebook's market value is at least more than $2 billion...... According to people familiar with the matter, An Yuxi is the second largest shareholder of the company, which is worth at least 2 billion, and his share share is second only to founder and former CEO Mark Zuckerberg.

Most of the reports in the newspaper are based on the "speculation" stance, and from the outside world's point of view, these data are not necessarily true, but Chen Xiang once deliberately learned about AWM's financial situation in order to help An Yuxi, which naturally includes the shareholding structure.

AWM Holdings owns 60% of the shares of AWM Film and Television, 100% of the shares of AWM Entertainment, 85% of AWM Music, 8% of which was given to CEO Kim Jung-myung, 5% of which is used as a future reward, 90% of the shares of AWM Network, 5% of which are awarded shares, and Facebook shares, although they have also increased their holdings, but now the shares are diluted to 24%, and there are several investment projects, as well as some industrial shares.

And according to Chen Xiang, such a share distribution method is only temporary, in the future, when the time is ripe for collectivization, An Yuxi is also ready to set up a few more companies, and there are "AWM Group Company", "AWM High-tech Research Institute", an amusement park that has not been named for the time being, and a physical hotel.

She heard An Yuxi say that she plans to subdivide the shares in the future to achieve cross-shareholding.

Cross-shareholding is nothing more than this way to improve the viability of the enterprise, and if there are multiple companies listed under the group in the future, cross-shareholding can ensure that the group expands at the fastest rate (a company has good market performance and great upside potential. If it encounters external risks, such as capital sniping, cross-shareholding can also ensure that the control of the group is always in the hands of An Yuxi.

Another reason is tax avoidance......

Of course, that is later, and even if it is subdivided and cross-held in the future, it can't be too much, An Yuxi must have certain assets under his name, otherwise the government doesn't mind grabbing the pigtails and opening the knife, what happened to those chaebols in China in recent years is enough to warn.

For example, Samsung, which creates tens of trillions of won in revenue every year, but in the published statements, many companies under its name are operating with negative assets, and the expenditure is getting bigger and bigger year by year, and the assets held by the chaebol head Lee Kun-hee and his family are less than one-tenth of the revenue, which is too arrogant, everyone knows that there is a cat in it, and the National Tax Service is staring at them 360 days out of 365 days a year. Lee Kun-hee started from the helm of the chaebol, and I don't know how many times he was invited to tea.

This is a later story, the current Chen Xiang still can't understand An Yuxi's arrangement for the future, in fact, it is the first time she has clearly seen the asset statistics under An Yuxi's name, and the total assets displayed in the newspaper alone are close to 2 billion US dollars.

"$2 billion...... It's already so much......" Counting those numbers, stunned for a moment, Chen Xiang muttered softly and shook her head, even though she had also dealt with hundreds of millions of billions of business, but she was still very surprised by An Yuxi's ability to make money, and as soon as the words fell, An Yuxi's inquiry came from behind her: "Xiangxiang, what is so much?"

Chen Xiang shook the newspaper in his hand: "Brother, the Japanese media are helping you calculate your assets." As she spoke, she looked at the time and said with a smile: "Brother, how many assets do you guess?"

"I don't know!"

"About $2 billion. ”

For his ability to create wealth, An Yuxi did not have a specific concept, although the company's performance statement read a lot, but did not think so much, only knew that his company was basically in a profitable state, at this time suddenly heard this number, the whole person was stunned.

"$2 billion?" An Yuxi was thinking about how many zeros were 2 billion at this time, and a few people next to him couldn't help but take a breath after hearing this number, and they didn't even play cards.

This $2 billion was created by An Yuxi in just three years!

it!

"Wang Bang!" a man dropped the high ghost, but apparently no one paid attention to him.

"Hmm!" Chen Xiang raised her face, as if trying to control herself from looking too proud, but the smile on the corner of her mouth exposed everything.

"It's a lot! It looks like I can do what I want to do in the future!" An Yuxi rubbed his chin with his thumb, and his mouth fell into deep thought.

"That's a lot?" Chen Xiang's eyelids jumped, this brother was too calm, you know, if you convert the dollar into South Korean won, according to the current exchange rate, 2 billion US dollars is probably equivalent to about 2.3 trillion won, and last year, South Korea's annual fiscal revenue was 3.6 trillion won, and An Yuxi's net worth can almost be compared to a country's fiscal surplus in a year.

"By the way, what else do you want to do!" Chen Xiang muttered secretly. However, Chen Xiang was very satisfied with everyone's shock, and now she behaves like a child, and her brother is amazing, so she wishes everyone would know.
