Chapter 61: Heaven and Earth
In the ninth year of Yonghe, the age is ugly, and at the beginning of the twilight spring, he will be in the Lanting of Huiji Shanyin, and he will repair things. The sages are complete, and the young are salty. There are lofty mountains and mountains here, dense forests and bamboos, and there are clear streams and turbulent currents, reflecting the left and right, leading to the flow of the curved water, and the second place is seated. Although there is no silk bamboo orchestra, a song is enough to tell the romance.
……
The Nobel Prize celebrity, Professor Ju, finally "spoke" and did not speak, but posted the latest photo of Wang Xizhi's "Lanting Collection Preface" on the Internet.
"Did the professor write it himself?
"Professor Virtue and Art, Barbarian Worship!"
"I have known for a long time that the professor is both virtuous and artistic, why don't you write something else? With the professor's talent, there should be a poem or a word. ”
has retweeted more than a million and commented more than 10,000 times, and has become a top V.
This is the silent communication between Juchen and netizens, he has read hundreds of comments, all of which are more praise and less negative, it seems that everyone still respects the Nobel Prize.
A group of jokers who live in pursuit of water and grass began to make up headline articles such as "Ju Chen's Ten Advice to Young People" and "Nobel Prize Laureate Professor Ju Chen's Ten Rules of Innovation".
At this moment, Ju Chen's beating of his past takeaway colleagues, the framing of prison, etc., has no feeling, forgetting the past eventful years, full of happiness.
Standing at the pinnacle of life, there is nothing more than this.
Of course, Columbia University urgently convened an impromptu meeting to promote Juchen to tenured professor and give him an annual salary of $300,000.
It's all a small fight, and in the future, the professor will make a lot of money, and if he accidentally donates a large sum of money to the university, this $300,000 is simply an appetizer.
How far is the distance between heaven and hell? Anyway, for Ju Chen, the distance is not far, and he immediately knows the impermanence of fate.
A few days after enjoying the pinnacle of his life, a shocking bombshell news came, an Israeli network security company released the news that they had been tracking down a cryptocurrency mining virus, and after code reverse engineering analysis, the core code of the virus was highly suspected to come from ...... Well-known scientist, Professor Ju Chen.
Wow~ Really? At first, only social networks circulated on it, and some newspapers reprinted lace news, but later, Bloomberg and other serious financial media confirmed by experts that this is indeed possible!
If you don't know, you can't do it unless you do. Juchen's mood fell off the cliff, and finally understood the meaning of this sentence, and understood that it was not IQ, but emotional intelligence.
Now, he didn't know what to say, so much so that he didn't go to the Nobel Prize ceremony, instructing his students to attend on his behalf.
He went to some barren scenic spots where birds don't lay eggs and was silent for half a month, surprisingly, this magical country seems to give special treatment to a scientist like him who has brought a great reputation to the country, and the official firmly denied that Professor Juchen was involved in criminal activities such as mining viruses, and even sent a press release to the major media, strictly prohibiting unnecessary speculation.
What's even more amazing is that many users learned that this virus was just using idle resources, and even gave compensation to the "victim" Bitcoin under certain conditions, which was really a magical virus, and some users began to take the initiative to download the virus and take the initiative to seek infection.
This is probably the first time in history that users are willing to actively infect the virus, and the "victims" alliance and other non-governmental organizations have spontaneously organized to justify this so-called virus, which is not a virus, but a special mining program, which is in the experimental stage, so it has not disclosed itself.
Some geeks said that the virus suspected to be developed by Professor Ju consumes and harasses the user's computer even less than some guards and housekeepers.
Ju Chen knew that the reporter would ask him related questions, so he didn't show up recently, and he seemed to have evaporated from the world.
I didn't even go to the Nobel Prize ceremony, and it was not easy for you to find the professor's deity.
Tian Qingwen, a good friend and business partner, came to the reclusive Juchen and said with a smile: "Do you know how many downloads of the virus you invented in the legend now? Haha, laughing to death, I went to the download station to see, your virus has 1 million downloads every day!"
Juchen didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
So, the mining virus has reached tens of millions of users?
Ju Chen, who was already far away from this thing, couldn't help but take a look at the background data, his secret account had accumulated $1.5 million in income, because the virus was split fifty-five with users, so the value of bitcoins that had been issued to users was also about 150.
Now, $330,000 worth of bitcoin is sent into the account every day, which equates to a cash cow that nets $120 million a year.
The above book mentioned that the operating income of 3.6 billion yuan was only the income of Mr. Shu's operation when it reached its peak, that is, a few years later, and it seems that it was miscalculated again, and the list of candidates for the first cash cow was changed.
Although the reputation is damaged, and even a shrewd insider will think that Juchen's character is problematic, the practical benefits make up for some of the losses.
10 million user-level mining programs work for themselves! This is the dream of many mining pools.
Inadvertently, he has reached one-tenth of the hashrate of the top mining pools. Using idle resources, isn't this a perverted application of the sharing economy?
The qualitative change that was expected to occur when the daily active programmers reached 10,000 had already happened at 3000+, and the programmer community was singing about the benefits of crowdsourcing, and Accenture finally couldn't hold back, fully satisfying the gluttonous professor's animal desires, and offered a sky-high price of $35 billion in cash for the acquisition of PCC.
Cash, dear, not stocks, not options, not financing under the restrictions of rules and regulations, real cash, after the transaction, Juchen will become one of the individuals with the most cash in the world.
He holds 75% of PCC's shares, and can get 26.25 billion of 35 billion, even if he does not avoid taxes, even in the United States, as personal income, he will get a huge amount of cash of 17 billion US dollars after tax.
Accenture is a multinational company that can easily reduce taxes to single digits through branches around the world, and if it is too troublesome, it can be aggregated to Swiss banks, and finally pay 10% tax, which can earn $23.6 billion.
Switzerland's corporate tax is one of the lowest in the world, and with strict privacy laws in place, the aggregation is of particular interest here.
23.6 billion US dollars, which is about the same as the TOP40 of the Hurun Global Rich List, and the same amount as Mr. Li Ka-shing.
What if the money was cash? There is no target, and no one of the rich people has so much cash in their hands. Even if there is, you don't know what the proportion is.
From soaring global fame to almost falling to the bottom, experiencing a spiritual catastrophe, Juchen decided: to sell.
In the course of the transaction, someone leaked the news, and the news that PCC was seeking to sell as a whole suddenly resounded throughout the investment community. Many expert investors know that this unicorn is a developer resource platform that is very likely to develop into a 100-billion-level behemoth.
Accenture fears its competitors, especially the terrible giants in Silicon Valley with huge amounts of cash, and asks to come to headquarters tomorrow to sign a contract, and Juchen agrees.
That night, Juchen had a sleepless night, and in the morning he was depressed, postponing his signing with Accenture, and he was always terrified, afraid that he would do something wrong at this turning point in his life.
I slept until 2 p.m., and then I was visited by Apple's VP-level vice president of investment.
Apple is now deeply trapped in the old mobile phone frequency reduction door, want to make a morale-boosting big news, the cash in hand is a bit like a hot potato, the minister who holds the power of negotiation gave a cash offer of 50 billion US dollars, and the 50 billion is all given to Juchen himself, and after that, the position of CEO is still his, retaining 5% of the shares.
So, the $50 billion is not an overall acquisition, it is a step higher than Accenture's offer.
Apple, it's a surprise, they like to do research behind closed doors, Juchen once thought that Alphabet and Microsoft should be interested in PCC.
The Nobel Prize is a purely spiritual item of human life, and the big mergers and acquisitions led by IT giants are the profound way to affect the world. What a sleepless night, no energy, excuses, all excuses, their CEO said.
