#1073 billionaire

Just after the New Year, Netflix Network held a New Year's reception, which was not only a routine event, but also a celebration of the company's market value exceeding 100 billion yuan.

Looking across the United States, companies with a market value of 100 billion US dollars are just a few companies. General Electric and ExxonMobil, which are ranked first, have a market value of more than 300 billion.

In terms of market value alone, Netflix Network even surpasses Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley and Merrill Lynch Group, which are shareholders and investors.

However, market value does not represent the true strength of a company.

A black Bentley sedan parked in front of the hotel door. Ronan got out first, then turned around and took Jessica Felton from the car and walked towards the hotel door.

Jessica Felton dressed up tonight and immediately attracted a large number of reporters at the door.

Security personnel isolated media reporters from multiple professional media such as entertainment, finance and social affairs, but could not stop their questions.

"Mr. Anderson!" Chaotic questions frequently spread here: "Netflix Network's market value exceeds 100 billion US dollars, what do you think?"

Someone almost shouted out: "Mr. Anderson, are you excited to be the first rich man in history to have a net worth of over 100 billion US dollars?"

Ronan said nothing and walked towards the hotel gate with Jessica Felton's hand.

There are also reporters, Jessica Felton, and he didn't let go: "Miss Felton, is it stressful to become the girlfriend of a billionaire?"

"Are you with Ronan Anderson because of his money?"

"Will you get married?"

There are a variety of questions asked, and some entertainment reporters even have too much questions.

Although these issues have been contemptuous by their fellow financial and social current affairs, entertainment journalists do not care at all.

Their bottom line is far lower than that of their peers.

But Jessica Felton has had enough knowledge over the years and has accumulated a lot of experience in dealing with media reporters. Without saying a word, he followed Ronan into the hotel silently.

Immediately, Netflix Network staff came over and led the two of them along the red carpet towards the banquet hall.

Jessica Felton tidied up her long skirt a little and whispered to Ronan: "They are like a pack of wolves."

Ronan also lowered his voice and praised: "The main reason is that you are too beautiful."

Jessica Felton knew himself and said the truth: "The main reason is that you are too rich. Oh, the richest man in the United States, the richest man in the world, the first billionaire in history, the most successful investor in the world... This string of titles made me a little dizzy."

"Don't care about these." Ronan said calmly: "I'm still me."

Jessica Felton understood what this said and nodded slightly: "I know, so I have always been relieved and never bothered with these things."

After nearly ten years of editors, post-production producers and producers, she has also accumulated tens of millions of dollars in wealth.

If you have enough money, you will naturally not be troubled by money.

People who have enough life experience know very well that there are too many problems in this world, all of which are money issues.

The two entered the banquet hall and Netflix's CEO Mark Randolph, who greeted the guests, immediately came up to shake hands with Ronan.

"We did it!" Mark Randolph held Ronan's hand tightly, thinking about the situation when Relativity Entertainment just acquired Netflix, and said: "I didn't expect that we did it so quickly!"

Ronan said with a smile: "You and the entire management team make an indelible contribution."

After chatting casually, Ronan took Jessica Felton into the banquet hall, and there were endless people coming to say hello.

There are too many people who want to get in touch with Ronan.

Steve Jobs came over with his wife at this time. The two greeted Ronan and Jessica Felton and divided into two small circles.

"Congratulations, Ronan." Steve Jobs got older.

Ronan laughed: "It should be congratulations to us."

"It turns out that I read it right, Netflix is ​​my most successful investment."

Just as Steve Jobs' biggest asset source was Disney shares, the most valuable thing about Jobs is Netflix's shares.

Ronan said seriously: "Netfly won't disappoint."

Steve Jobs nodded slightly and said, "What I care most now is when will Netflix's market value exceed $200 billion?"

Ronan was very confident: "It will definitely be, but it will take time."

He had a vague impression, as if when Steve Jobs passed away, Apple's market value was about $200 billion.

"Netflix Network is now a leading company in the Internet industry," said Steve Jobs. "The business is developing rapidly, and other companies may not even catch up in the short term."

He asked curiously: "Netflix's main business originated from you at first. Ronan, you always have so many ideas, and I want to hire you as Apple's chief creative officer."

Instead of answering his words, Ronan asked, "How is Apple's second-generation mobile phone development?"

Steve Jobs said vaguely: "It is under development and testing. I cannot be sure when it will be listed for the time being." He suddenly asked: "Apple is preparing to issue a batch of bonds. Ronan, you are an Apple shareholder. Are you interested?"

Ronan knew about this. Goldman Sachs was the dealer of this batch of bonds, and Jobs's wife Laurenna was a middleman.

Laurenna Jobs once worked at Goldman Sachs and worked as a fixed income analyst, which brought the two companies closer.

Goldman Sachs, Merrill Lynch, Morgan Stanley, etc. are currently typical Apple blowing and Netflix blowing.

Of course, capital is ruthless, and when there are greater interests, they will also change their positions.

After chatting for a while, Steve Jobs and his wife went somewhere else.

Ronan just got a glass of water for Jessica Felton, and Robert Iger appeared in front of the two.

"Good evening, two." Robert Iger looked at Jessica Felton: "Jesse, can you lend your boyfriend some time?"

Jessica Felton smiled and said, "Of course." She turned to Ronan and said, "I'll go and chat with Mary for a while."

Luo Nan nodded slightly: "Go."

When Jessica Felton left, Robert Eiger said: "I checked it carefully. The problem of Lehman Brothers should be very serious. It has not been made public yet, but they are very sad."

Ronan asked: "What are the plans for investment banks such as Goldman Sachs?"

Robert Eiger whispered: "They are happy to see their competitors end up being finished, and they may be ready to push and grab one."

"You are professional in this regard." Ronan knew very well that Robert Eiger's ability. This was a good dealer in mergers and acquisitions: "Find the right time to negotiate with Lehman Brothers."

"As long as the price is right, they won't stop selling it."

Ronan said: "This is the best, and the plan will always be realized step by step."

Robert Eiger smiled like a Mickey Mouse: "I have prepared the manpower and funds." He saw several people and reminded: "The guys from Goldman Sachs are here."

Before Lloyd Blankfein got closer, he stretched out his right hand to Ronan: "Ronan, you haven't come to New York for a long time. Have you forgotten me, an old friend?"

Ronan shook hands with him and said, "I'm thinking of inviting you to a party in California. New York is too cold now."

Both of them laughed, as if they hadn't seen each other for a long time.

Lloyd Blankfein smiled slightly and said, "Ronan, your investment vision is so good that it is shocking. I won't say that Netflix can have a market value of 100 billion US dollars. You are the key. Other investments also have a huge return, which makes me imagine how many times your investments in these three companies have been made?"

These are listed companies, and you will be clear after a little checking. Moreover, there are so many wealth magazines in North America that focus on this aspect of statistics.

Luo Nan is not modest either: "I always believe that the Internet is a sunrise industry and will create the accumulated value of traditional industries for many years at the fastest speed."

Lloyd Blankfein said solemnly: "Now, I believe this too." He said with some compliment: "Congratulations again, the world's first billionaire."

Ronan waved his hand: "Just let it go, there is no need between us."

Lloyd Blankfein said with a smile: "Goldman Sachs' market value is only $80 billion, and your finances alone are far more than the entire Goldman Sachs."

"Is this comparable?" Ronan deliberately asked: "The assets in the stock market are all false, and the resources in Goldman Sachs are real."

This is not a compliment, but the truth.

After chatting for a while, Lloyd Blankfein said: "We should push Netflix Network by $200 billion as soon as possible."

Ronan said directly: "That needs to expand investment."

If Netflix Network wants to continue to develop rapidly, it must maintain a money-burning model.

"Goldman Sachs is very interested in increasing its investment in Netflix Network," Lloyd Blankfein said.

Ronan knew very well that, like Apple and Goldman Sachs once, for at least one period, Goldman Sachs continued to act as Netflix, because it was in their interest.

"Together we will create a myth," Ronan said.

Lloyd Blankfein said: "Goldman Sachs and Netflix, and Relativity Entertainment will be the best strategic partners!"

Luo Nan naturally listened to this kind of thing and would not take it seriously.

In a short period of time, there will be no problem with the cooperation between the two parties, but he is also staring at Goldman Sachs and never relaxes his vigilance.

Later, Ronan met several Netflix investors and chatted with representatives from Conscart and at&t for a while.

The reason why Netflix Network has today is also closely related to the technical support received by the two groups after cross-holding.

Especially by borrowing Conscart's channels, Netflix streaming has successfully entered the cable TV market in Latin America.
