Chapter 2614

"Google, Apple, Yahoo, Cisco, Oracle, Tesla, and other top high-tech companies have all stepped out

of Silicon Valley.”

“To this day, their market value has increased tens of thousands of times, and the incremental space

is extremely huge!”

"Any stockholder, if he bought Apple's stock 20 years ago, his current income would be more than

300 or nearly 400 times.”

“But did you know that your mother invested in Apple with the venture capital fund she set up

before you were born!"

"At the time, Steve Jobs treated her as a guest, and when Apple's market value was only a few

billion dollars, she used hundreds of millions of dollars in exchange for 10% of Apple's shares!”

“Now, Apple's market value is more than two trillion US dollars, equivalent to more than 15 trillion

yuan!”

“The 10% of your mother’s investment back then, after a round of dilution and reduction, there

should now be about 6%!"

"How much is it converted into RMB? It's almost 900 billion!” “But your mother not only invested in

Jobs’ Apple, but she also invested in another company at Stanford, Larry Page.”

“Larry Page is the founder of Google. Google search, Google Maps, Android phone system, and the

well-known smart Go robot Alpha Dog some time ago are all products of this company.”

“Now the market value of this company is more than one trillion U.S. dollars, and your mother's

venture capital fund holds more than 10% of the company's shares!”

"So, the income your mother received from investing in these two companies alone has exceeded

the sum of all the assets of the Wade family. If all the investment income of your mother's venture

capital fund in that year is included, the Su family and Wade I'm afraid they are not opponents, let

alone the assets of the entire An.”

Charlie was already stunned when he heard this!

Many people know or have heard of the miracle of Silicon Valley back then, and Charlie is no

exception.

Numerous high-tech companies were born here, and there are not enough companies with a

market value of more than tens of billions of dollars. There are also several companies with a market

value of more than 100 billion.

Back then, anyone who could take money to invest in Silicon Valley, close his eyes and invest

casually, could also invest in a lot of companies with unlimited potential.

The power of investment is that the upside is beyond imagination.

That year, Sun Zhengyi of Japan invested US$20 million in Alibaba, making a full US$50 billion;

The South African Press Group in South Africa invested more than 30 million U.S. dollars in Tencent

Group, making a full $130 billion!

This is where the charm of investment lies. By seizing a potential stock, you can achieve a net profit

of several thousand times.

These are classic investment cases familiar to the Chinese people.

But Charlie really did not expect that his gentle, virtuous, and knowledgeable

mother would have such a brilliant investment history!
