Chapter 750: Time Magazine Cover Character
In the era of the turbulent tide of the Internet, the NASDAQ has created countless myths, and many new Internet companies with innovative ideas can easily create a market value of more than a dozen or even billions or tens of billions of dollars by relying on the idea of burning money. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Deep-pocketed venture capitalists flock to the market, waving checks to make the market hotter and hotter, and the companies they are pushing to invest in go public make a lot of money, and they sell their shares at high prices to ordinary investors before smiling their mouths off the market.
However, the tide receded, and it was clear who was swimming naked, and the two far-reaching stock market crashes profoundly educated shareholders and small and medium-sized investors that the previous set of tried and tested tricks was now unbearable on the NASDAQ.
As a result, the probability of new domestic Internet companies going public in the United States is getting lower and lower, and they can only seek to make ends meet in Xiangjiang or the mainland gem.
In such a realistic background, the crowdfunding network completed its IPO on the NASDAQ, and the stock price rose by nearly 100% on the first day, which is really a miracle in the eyes of many industry insiders!
As the star shareholder and founder of the crowdfunding network, Lu Chen has undoubtedly received too much attention, so much so that many people ignore the real promoters and heroes of the NASDAQ listing of the crowdfunding network.
On December 2, the stock price of the crowdfunding network continued to rise, breaking through $50, which also made the market value of Lu Chen's shares really exceed $400 million, heading straight for $500 million!
The news from across the ocean was transmitted back to China, and the upsurge of public opinion continued unabated.
The Chinese Financial News, which can be called the flagship level in the domestic financial and economic circle, analyzed the successful experience of the crowdfunding network on its front page, and believed that the innovative Internet model still has great potential, although the main market is divided by several Internet giants, but small and medium-sized enterprises still have the possibility of standing out.
Compared with those media that are not professional enough, "Huaxia Financial News" undoubtedly pays much more attention to Li Mushi, the helmsman of the crowdfunding network, than Lu Chen, and praises the young CEO.
But in the same way, "Huaxia Financial News" also affirmed Lu Chen's genius mind.
Unlike professional media, ordinary media and the majority of netizens are staring at Lu Chen, praising and envy, while there are also some discordant remarks on the blog network.
Some people say that Lu Chen has easily earned two or three billion now, should he take some money out and do good deeds?
As a result, he was immediately sprayed with blood!
In terms of the amount of charitable donations, there are really few celebrities in the domestic entertainment industry who can surpass Lu Chen.
The "Chenfei Charity Fund" founded by Lu Chen and Chen Feier has been established for almost two years, and the fund's assets have increased from tens of millions to 300 million today, of which 70% comes from Lu Chen's personal donations, 20% is donated by Chen Feier, and the remaining 10% is donated by friends in the two circles.
In other words, although the Chenfei Charity Fund is a public charity fund, it has never raised donations from the public, and most of the money is taken out of Lu Chen's own pocket!
The most important thing is that Lu Chen has only debuted for more than three years, and he has taken out so much money, all of which he has earned by relying on his hard work, who can compare with his attitude towards charity?
Now some people actually think that Lu Chen should take more money out, it's ridiculous!
In this world, there are many people who "hate the rich", but in fact, most of the "haters of the rich" hate those who are unkind to the rich, not those who make a fortune by hard work and talent.
Therefore, this kind of incitement and provocation that is obviously ill-intentioned does not have any market on the Internet, even if some trolls are jumping up and down, they are quickly sprayed by the saliva of Lu Chen's fans.
Some people also expressed regret, because the crowdfunding network was founded by Lu Chen, and now that the NASDAQ is listed, he only holds 10% of the shares, which is a bit like making wedding clothes for others.
This statement is quite a bit of a market among netizens who are concerned about this matter, including Lu Chen's fans, think about it, if Lu Chen didn't sell so many shares and now holds 50%, it would be a net worth of more than 10 billion!
Suffered, he suffered a big loss!
But those who really know the process of creating, developing, and going public on crowdfunding networks, as well as many people in the industry, scoff at this utterly amateurish claim.
In the process of the development of the Internet, it is normal for the shares held by the founders to be constantly diluted, and it is also an indispensable process on the road to listing, if Lu Chen really holds 50% or more of the shares of the crowdfunding network, then the crowdfunding network will not be able to IPO at all.
The most important thing is that the core of Lu Chen's career has always been in the entertainment industry, when he established a crowdfunding network, it was more of the nature of ticket investment, and now he can retain 10% of the shares, which is already commendable.
So Lu Chen didn't suffer a loss at all, it should be said that his original investment was rewarded a hundredfold!
Public opinion was turbulent, once again pushing Lu Chen to the cusp.
And Lu Chen has been silent about this, he doesn't even update his own blog, he politely refused interviews with many heavyweight media, and spent all his time on work.
The filming of "My Love from the Star" was officially completed, and the post-production, dubbing and soundtrack and other work have already made him so busy that he can still take care of the rights and wrongs of the outside world.
It is not a good thing to be too strong in the limelight, and it is necessary to cool down properly.
However, what he didn't expect was that an American media rushed to join in the fun at this time.
On December 4th, Time magazine launched the latest issue of the magazine, and the cover character was Lu Chen!
It has caused a sensation in the country again!
This is the first time that the famous magazine, which has a wide influence around the world, has published a photo of a Chinese star on the cover.
In the past, in China, together with Hong Kong and Taiwan, there were four star artists who had appeared on the cover of "Time Magazine", but without exception, they were on the cover of the Asian edition.
So this kind of treatment, Lu Chen is the first!
In the cover introduction of Time Magazine, the world-renowned magazine praised Lu Chen's talent and achievements in Chinese pop music, film and television, reviewed the sensational flight UD725 incident in the United States, and even specifically mentioned Lu Chen's song "lethergo", and then elaborated on Lu Chen's relationship with the crowdfunding network that had just been listed on the NASDAQ, and talked about Lu Chen's contribution to charity.
At the end of the article, the editor of Time Magazine called Lu Chen "an outstanding representative of the young generation in Asia" and "a new generation leader in the Chinese entertainment industry"!
