Chapter 43: The Snake Who Loves SH Xian
St. Mary's Fruit Company is the best choice to control it in its own hands. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
If a year ago, when R-grade fruit had not yet been marketed and the market had not yet been opened, St. Mary's Fruit would have a market value of up to $100 million.
But now it's different.
R-grade, which is the restricted grade, is actually a kind of ridicule of the jade seal fruit by the media. Just like R-rated movies, you are not allowed to watch them under the age of 17 or need to be accompanied by your parents. Using R to describe the three levels of gold, platinum, and diamond fruits have the same charm - without that capital, you can't afford to eat them, at least not for a long time.
With the opening of the R-grade fruit market, the additional investment by St. Mary's shareholders, and the profits from the first batch of R-grade fruits last year, the market value of St. Mary's has increased by more than five times!
That is to say, now, if you want to forcibly acquire St. Mary's Company and take 100% of the shares, it will be at least more than 500 million!
Even if it is not 100% holding, to achieve absolute control, it needs at least 300 million.
And Zhou Yu doesn't have so much money now.
As for aiming at the space exploration technology company, this is completely Zhou Yu's own hobby, not about profits, but simply feels that the behavior of such a company is the most meaningful.
Who makes more sense to develop a game program vs. to build a rocket and space shuttle?
It's clearly the latter.
Even if the former may be more profitable!
Li Jing listened to Zhou Yu's words, put on her glasses, groaned, and said, "If the boss wants to control St. Mary's Company, then it is better to do it sooner rather than later." ”
Zhou Yu looked at her, waiting for an explanation.
"St. Mary's is the farm's sole partner, and as the farm's production of high-end fruit increases, the market value of St. Mary's will grow. The more time passes, and when it grows into a behemoth, it will be difficult to start again. So, the sooner the better. ”
"The boss can start buying St. Mary's shares now, but according to St. Mary's current development trend, even if the premium is large, there may not be any shareholders willing to sell the shares, and retail investors in the stock market will certainly not have many shares. I suggest that the boss do something about it, preferably by showing signs of refusing to continue working with St. Mary's, which should have some effect. ”
When Zhou Yu heard this, he frowned slightly and said, "No." I signed a three-year exclusive supply contract with Hank last year, and if I tear up the contract now, I will need to pay sky-high liquidated damages. ”
Hearing this, Li Jing had no choice.
Zhou Yu thought for a while and said, "You can find a way to check the shareholder composition of St. Mary's Company, and find out the information of several important people, I'll take a look first." ”
"Okay, boss."
Li Jing nodded, and said, "As for the Space Exploration Technology Company, if the boss wants to invest, now is the right time." ”
"How?" Zhou Yu couldn't help asking.
Just six months ago, SpaceX's rocket exploded in mid-air, causing their previous year's efforts to come to naught, causing investor confidence to fall and stock prices plummeting. In the new year, that is, on January 1st, Musk announced that the rocket recovery launch would be carried out again on the 18th, but the media generally sang about it. ”
"I know that." Zhou Yu bowed his head slightly and said, "But a company like Space Exploration Technology, failing once or twice, shouldn't it be nothing?" For this cutting-edge technology, shareholders and shareholders should be tolerant. ”
"But that's just the way it is." Li Jing said: "Whether it is a major shareholder or an individual investor, their purpose is not to innovate technology, but to make money. If you can't make money, of course the valuation will fall. ”
"This is also..."Zhou Yu nodded slightly, and said: "But Musk is a rich man, mastering Tesla's electric vehicles and space exploration technology, I don't know how much he is worth, but at least he is stronger than me, does he need my investment?" ”
"Absolutely." Li Jingzheng said: "In the United States, no one will dislike investors, especially when the stock price is low. I think if the boss wants to invest, Musk will not be able to welcome it. ”
"And, boss, you overestimated Musk." Li Jing said: "Whether it is Tesla or a space technology exploration company, in fact, it has been losing money in recent years. Tesla, in particular, has been losing money for six consecutive years. If it weren't for the prospect described by Musk, which is promising, I'm afraid Tesla would have gone bankrupt. As for Space Exploration Technology Corporation, if it were not for in-depth cooperation with NASA, it would be difficult to support it if it could get orders from the state. ”
"Oh, in this way, Musk's worth should not be much left..."Zhou Yu squinted his eyes slightly and nodded slowly: "In this case, I want to invest, and I don't think it will be too hindered." ”
Earlier, when he aimed at the Space Exploration Technology Company, Zhou Yu specifically checked the details of this company on the Internet, of course, the Internet is definitely not detailed enough, and there are many lies.
Elon Musk, the owner of SpaceX, is described as a genius rich man, and I heard that the prototype of the movie Iron Man is this one.
Musk was born in South Africa, and after coming to the United States, he first started with online payment and founded PayPal, which is now the world's largest online payment platform, and later sold it to eBay. Then he co-founded Tesla and Space Exploration Technologies.
News about this person on the Internet is not uncommon.
However, Zhou Yu didn't expect that after Li Jing's scrutiny, he found that Musk's worth may not be as people speculated.
But even so, even though Space Exploration Technology Company has been losing money for many years, Zhou Yu still has not discouraged his enthusiasm for investment.
And under such a premise, it is more convenient to invest, isn't it?
So he said, "In that case, after you go down, try to contact SpaceX first and find out what they have to say." Let me know again when you have the exact news. ”
"Okay, boss."
Seeing Li Jing away, Zhou Yu pondered silently for a while.
He deeply knows that his main business is the farm. The idea of St. Mary's was for the long-term plan of the farm. As for investing in SpaceX, one is interest. The second is to expand its influence.
The combination of the two chose Musk's company.
In the future, when Zhou Yu has enough cash in hand, he will invest in more companies. Crochet a network and enhance your influence to the point where you can improve your social status and make it impossible for people to move lightly.
However, he will firmly remember that his roots are still in the land.
Because the main role of the jade seal lies in this.
He is not a big scientist, he is not a genius, he does not have a golden finger, and he is afraid that he will be blind to other industries. Only by relying on the land and agriculture can we truly stand up.
...
On the beach, Zhou Yu was wearing a sleeveless shirt, a pair of beach pants on the lower half of his body, barefoot, holding Tina's hand, facing the sea breeze, stepping on the delicate sand, silently enjoying the tranquility of the sea and sky.
Tina was also barefoot, wearing a gauze skirt, and her long blond hair fluttering in the wind.
In the distance, by the newly built dock, two fishing boats have just docked.
Suddenly, two big snakes swam out of the pineapple forest next to them, and when they saw Zhou Yu, they immediately came over.
"I've found that they're in love with seafood now."
Tina couldn't help squatting down, touched the fleshy horns on the head of the male snake, and said to Zhou Yu: "A few days ago, fishermen told me that they often see them wrapped around the reef, staring at the surface of the water, just like a fish, plunging their heads into the sea at once, and then taking out a fish. ”
Nowadays, the range of these two big snakes is no longer limited to forest areas. Many times, they swim out of the wooded area and wander around the farm.
At first, it scared a lot of people, but now the people on the farm, including the new fishermen, are getting acquainted with them.
Although many people are afraid to approach, they are not afraid of being eaten.
Zhou Yu smiled: "This is our domestic cat!" ”
Tina snorted and laughed, "That's not the right description for you. Is there such a cat? ”
"Cats eat fish and they eat mice. Snakes also eat mice, and now they eat fish, isn't it the same as cats? Zhou Yu said distortedly.
"Well, you're right." Tina laughed.
The two snakes played around Zhou Yu and Tina for a while before they entered the sea together.
Tina couldn't help but say, "They... Isn't it dangerous to be in the water? What to do if you encounter a shark? ”
Zhou Yu shook his head and smiled: "You should be worried about sharks." ”
The Bodhi snake is not easy to get along with.
Snakes are creatures that are no different in the water or on land than they are on land, and are even more flexible. With the strength of two Bodhi snakes, the average shark may not be an opponent.
As he was talking, he heard fishermen shouting not far away.
Zhou Yu and Tina couldn't help but raise their heads in unison, and following the exclamations of the fishermen, they saw that the SH water on the sea not far away was rolling fiercely!
Zhou Yu stared at it, and clearly saw the figures of two big snakes!
What are you fighting with!
"Let's go, let's see!"
Although what he said in his mouth just now was relaxed, if something really happened to the Bodhi Snake, Zhou Yu would definitely die of distress - this was the key to his strength!
Pulling Tina, he trotted to the dockside: "Go over and have a look!" ”
Old Bell didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly shouted, Da started the small fishing boat, Zhou Yu and Tina boarded the fishing boat and drove directly to the Bodhi snake that was fighting.
By the time we got closer, the sea had calmed down.
Zhou Yu stood on the side of the boat, his upper body stretched out, trying his best to look, and suddenly, two snake heads emerged from under the water.
Zhou Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
Then I saw the male snake tossing and turning, and a big fish was entangled by it and lifted out of the water!
"Shark!"
Bell said on the side: "It's a Mexican tiger shark!" ”
"Tiger sharks?" Zhou Yu took a closer look, this shark is not big, about 1.78 meters, about an adult. The back is pale yellow, and the belly is white. But look at this shark, between the chest and abdomen, has completely dried up, the big mouth with sharp teeth is open, and the blood is flowing constantly. It was clearly entangled by the Bodhi snake, and even the bones in the chest were probably all broken!
Looking at the two Bodhi snakes that completely exposed their bodies on the surface of the water, there were no scars at all.
"They're amazing!"
Old Bell exclaimed: "Although the Mexican tiger shark is only a small and medium-sized shark, it is also extremely ferocious. In the water, no one dares to provoke such an animal! ”
"Haha," Zhou Yu smiled happily: "Don't talk about the Mexican tiger shark, the great white shark is coming, and they are not afraid." ”
As he was blowing, I saw two snakes trying to climb up, and they didn't forget to entangle the Mexican tiger shark. But the side of the boat was a little higher, and the male snake was entangled in the tiger shark, and he couldn't get up.
I saw the female snake shaking her head for a while, and the tail wrapped around the male snake and jumped up, frightening the fishermen to retreat again and again!
Then the female snake hung her tail down, and the male snake coiled the female snake's tail, dragged a shark weighing two or three hundred kilograms, and climbed onto the fishing boat.
"That's smart!"
Tina exclaimed in surprise.
After the two snakes came up, they directly put the shark in front of Zhou Yu, shaking their heads, obviously wanting to sacrifice the shark to Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu smiled happily, squatted down and touched them well, and the two snakes jumped down happily, ran into the water and disappeared!
"It's like a domestic hound!" Old Bell said.
