Chapter 2480: Incidental Effects

Zuckerberg calculated the financing at a Facebook valuation of 40 billion. More than a year or two years ago, when he accepted Tang Mingxiang's financing, the valuation seemed to have doubled.

Based on Milner's investment of 4 billion US dollars, accounting for 10% of the shares, the largest shareholder Tang Mingxiang's shareholding ratio has dropped to 36%, and the 8 billion investment has become 14.4 billion US dollars. Almost doubled.

Zuckerberg's 38% shares have also been diluted to 34.2%, but he has a binary shareholding structure system, with 68.4% of the voting rights, still the largest shareholder's voting rights.

In addition, Tang Mingxiang gave up the right to decide on shares, so there is still no one in Facebook who can compete with him.

This is also the reason why this financing plan was passed so quickly. The specific financing was completed in almost two or three days, and then Milner's 4 billion US dollars was in place, which is simply unimaginable under ordinary circumstances.

There is no impenetrable wall in the world.

Milner simply transferred 4 billion US dollars into Facebook's company account on the second day after the agreement was signed, and within 10 hours, the US technology industry, as well as major TV, newspapers and magazines, all knew about this. Explosive news.

"Goldman Sachs missed the opportunity, $35 billion in financing was rejected, Facebook found a better investor!"

"Facebook raised funds at a sky-high valuation of US$40 billion! Almost double the listing price of GOOGLE!!"

"Mysterious Russian investor invested 4 billion US dollars in Facebook. Is it a good investment or an irrational behavior?"

"Ms. Tang Mingxiang, the president of Chose girl, has amazing investment efficiency! With an investment of 8 billion yuan, it has skyrocketed by 160% in less than two years! She really deserves to be the confidante of the richest man in the world, and she even has an equally good investment vision!"

"Zuckerberg once again created the myth of entrepreneurs, with a wealth of 13.68 billion U.S. dollars, ranking among the top 10 richest people in the United States. If Facebook IPO goes public, Zuckerberg is likely to squeeze into the top ten richest people in the world! Created after Xiao Qi Two myths!"

"Is it a financial crisis now? No! Facebook will tell you with facts, as long as there is a theme, as long as it is a good thing, then someone will buy it!"

"..."

Facebook's valuation had skyrocketed. It can be regarded as a reassurance for the US network electronic technology industry. Let everyone know that in this era of panic, there are still good companies that can withstand the pressure and rise against the trend.

But for some reason, suddenly many people's eyes turned to Facebook's largest shareholder, Tang Mingxiang, the chairman of Mingxiang Venture Capital.

Tang Mingxiang owns it. It’s not just Facebook, a big gold mine. The Chose girl company she founded, after selling and buying back, and after her continuous investment and steady development of the market, the valuation of Chose girl has also reached The point of 40 billion US dollars.

To be honest, compared to Facebook, Chose girl's current turnover and profit are higher.

But in terms of overall development forecast. Chose girl is weaker than Facebook.

American investment banks value Facebook's IOP at 100 billion, and if Chose girl wants to go public, 60 billion is the top.

That's it. It still integrates businesses in the United States, Europe, and South America, with more than 100,000 employees. Chose girl can only achieve a $60 billion IPO listing, and this number is already 100 times that of Facebook employees.

Of course, the investment banks also commented that Ms. Tang Mingxiang will not feel depressed at all, because Chose girl represents the pinnacle of another industry, which is the same as Facebook on the way to connect the world, and don’t forget, Miss Tang Mingxiang The shareholding ratio in Chose girl is an astounding 95%, so you do the math. How much wealth does she own?

Not to mention Chose girl, Facebook, and the Zappos website that Tang Mingxiang bought for US$600 million two years ago. After two years of development, relying on convenient service, excellent quality, and a good return and exchange system, it has already penetrated into the lives of young Americans.

38% of young people in the United States buy shoes through the Zappos website. More than 2 million pairs of shoes are sent from Zappos warehouses to families in the United States every week, and this number is still rising.

For this reason, JPMorgan Chase has given Zappos a valuation of 2 billion US dollars.

It is said that Amazon has discussed with Mingxiang Venture Capital to invest in Zappos, or buy Zappos directly, but Tang Mingxiang refused without hesitation.

Everyone agrees with that.

In fact, from the perspective of a private company, Zappos does not have more business performance pressure, so it focuses more on price and service, which can enable shoppers to get a better shopping experience, which is what the public likes most.

What also made Tang Mingxiang dumbfounded was that Tagged, a social networking site, was originally a relatively simple investment for her, but because of her aura of "investment goddess", people suddenly paid more attention to Tagged.

Xiao Qi asked Tang Mingxiang to buy 40% of the shares with 100 million US dollars, but Tang Mingxiang was also very optimistic about Tagged when he saw Xiao Qi, so he simply bought 90% of Tagged shares for 300 million US dollars.

Originally, the founding team of Tagged did not want to sell so many shares, but there are so many websites in the world, and many promising websites have finally fallen silent. Now they can get 300 million US dollars, and they can also keep 10% of the shares, plus run their own websites , This kind of temptation. The temptation is too great, so they finally fell under the power of money.

Tagged's focus group is young people aged 12-18. Let them socialize in a young way. This way is very interesting and very relaxed, so it is very popular so far.

But there is a disadvantage, that is, young people aged 12-18 do not have strong spending power.

Especially young people in Europe and the United States, there are not so many parents, grandparents and grandparents who are obedient to them. They usually earn some pocket money by themselves, so although they like Tagged, the profitability of the entire Tagged website is very low.

This is why Tagged is obviously very popular, but its valuation is relatively low, and not many investors are willing to invest.

But as Facebook's valuation doubled, Tang Mingxiang was regarded as a master by those investors, so everyone felt that since Tang Mingxiang was so optimistic about Tagged, Tagged must be not so simple.

As a result, a large group of commentators and researchers launched various investigations and comments on Tagged. For a while, there were a lot of people talking about Tagged on news TV. It was like an advertisement for Tagged, so that more people could Understand what kind of social networking site Tagged is, what interesting points and prominent places it has.

Then the valuation of Tagged rose from 334 million US dollars when Tang Mingxiang bought it to 400 million US dollars in the past two days, which made Tang Mingxiang a little dumbfounded when she called her husband.

Little Meiji was indeed on the cusp during this time.

The foreign media calculated her assets, which basically reached 56 billion US dollars. Even the Dianping.com that Xiao Qi helped her buy in Huaguo was detected by these reporters. I have to lament that if they spend their energy on inventions , human beings do not know how many years earlier to achieve great development.

What is the concept of 56 billion US dollars?

Among the top ten richest people in the world in 2008, the sixth LVMH president, Bernard, was worth only 55 billion US dollars.

If there is a new ranking this year, Tang Mingxiang would not dare to say that she will be ranked sixth, but there is still no pressure to rank in the top ten.

Therefore, the foreign media, including the media in Huaguo, immediately became excited again, reporting that a super rich woman is about to be born!

Of course, Tang Mingxiang was determined not to have her name appear in the ten most prominent positions.

The local tyrants in the Middle East and the tycoons of the big families, they have a lot of money, but none of them appear on the list of the world's top ten rich people, this is to avoid trouble.

For this reason, Tang Mingxiang also specially called Xiao Qi to ask for advice on how to discuss with Forbes and Fu Run rankings and ask them to help lower the ranking.

It is really like Xiao Qi, the undisputed number one, there is no way.

But Tang Mingxiang's assets are not so ridiculously high, as long as it is not in the top ten, the top 20 are not so eye-catching.

So discuss with those guys who created the rich list, as long as they give money, they can help Tang Mingxiang achieve her wish by using methods such as "valuation does not represent actual assets".

However, such a lower ranking does not mean that Tang Mingxiang is not a super rich man.

There are also many vicious people in the United States. For the safety of his wife, Xiao Qi hastily dispatched 8 more female bodyguards to her, making her bodyguards more than 20 people.

But such a defense force is commonplace in the United States.

Haven't you seen that those so-called sports stars, film and music stars, come to Huaguo with more than dozens of bodyguards?

A dignified super rich woman with only such a little protection power is really a bit low-key!
