John Reed, President of the New York Stock Exchange, received Liao Yingzhu’s report.
He did not read it in detail because the person in charge of the New York Stock Exchange would review the same report, and as long as there were no problems, a market announcement would be issued as soon as possible.
He was more listening to Liao Yingzhu's oral introduction, and was shocked by Tesla's unpredictable methods - they would use an annual profit forecast of more than 300 million US dollars to leverage the stock price of a company with a market value of nearly 40 billion!
And this new business that is about to be disclosed is not advertising as the rumors say (no matter how Tesla uses the new accounting standards, it is impossible to achieve revenue of 300 million US dollars in advertising as a single business).
John Reed didn't know how to describe this business. He suddenly remembered the complaints made by friends in the entertainment industry some time ago:
"Whenever my artists release a new song or a new movie is released, if they want to achieve better results, they can't do without the name 'Shengtian'. God, you can't imagine that they will mark the artist's price from head to toe, and even wear clothes."
Underwear that smells like two days old can be sold for tens of thousands of dollars!
Sound fields! Sound fields! Suddenly, sound fields are everywhere!"
John Reed knows that it is not that Soundfield is everywhere, but now only Soundfield is at the forefront. Only through it can you get a glimpse of the huge consumer goods group behind Soundfield!
'Eyeball effect', 'fan economy' and other emerging terms all illustrate one point, that is, Tesla is joining forces with countless business groups to expand the consumer goods market. They are subtly increasing consumers' vanity and comparison mentality, and transforming countless non-lifestyle products.
Sell them necessities…
Wei Mingyu, Bai Li, Hao Ying, and even himself were tools. When everyone felt that Tesla was over-promoting, Tesla's little accountant summed up the relevant revenue with a stroke of a pen.
Money just appeared, new revenue also appeared, a high-horsepower engine was installed on Tesla's stock price, and a sharp sword was placed on International United Capital's son.
This is Tesla, this is Zhao, and this is their confidence in never compromising on capital!
He seems to be able to see the future, and every action is never in vain.
Reid ridiculed in his heart: Don’t those old men and women who make instant coffee know how rare it is to have a coffee with that young man? Why don’t you cherish it and end up like this?
"Liao," Reid showed the kindest smile and said in the gentlest tone, "My friend from the 'No. 1' account asked me to tell you that he is very satisfied with the profits from your previous operations and hopes that you will continue to work hard."
Liao Yingzhu put away the unruly expression on her face and said modestly: "That's what I should do, and without their protection, those people might be even more unscrupulous."
"Liao, you are so humble!" Reed shook his head and praised, "Traders who can maintain profits in every transaction during a market protection duel are rare on Wall Street."
"Thank you for the compliment!"
"Then I won't interrupt," Reid patted Liao Yingzhu's shoulder, pointed at the big clock and smiled, "You don't have much time."
"Sir," Liao Yingzhu raised her head proudly, "we have completed the position building!"
In John: "..."
After sighing again, he asked softly: "Liao, can you satisfy one of my curiosity?"
"Excuse me."
“How much money can you make from a song?”
"It's hard to calculate," Liao Yingzhu replied. "If you look at Tesla's financial statements carefully, you will find that the paid download of a song does not make much money, but if it is not a song, but a trend, culture, then
Bind it to consumer goods, and as long as there is capital to promote it, every song will be a priceless treasure!"
Reed understood, and then smiled bitterly and said: "It's hard to imagine how a Zhao Lai who is more capitalist than a capitalist could appear in that red country!"
"I will personally convey your compliments to my boss."
"Thank you very much. It would be great if you could also drink a cup of his celebratory coffee." Reed smiled brightly and pointed at the big clock again and said, "Liao, the largest over-the-counter betting event in this century is about to begin.
It's time to deliver, and you'll do it yourself. If you don't leave, you'll miss it."
Liao Yingzhu did not leave in a hurry, but said with a half-smile: "Sir, they did not stipulate the delivery time when they signed the agreement."
John Reed black question mark face.
"Those idiots linked the delivery to the time when the boss's shares are invested, so as long as we can afford the liquidated damages, this bet of the century will be extended indefinitely!"
Reed: "..."
…………
10:54 minutes sharp.
Tesla stock price 119.94.
Times Square, New York.
The backstage reporter cut half of the square's screens to Tesla's K-line chart.
The monotonous melody and boring lyrics continue, and the carnival has reached its climax.
The dance has been completed, and the people at the intersection and 42nd Street have finally regained their unique American freedom, loose personality, and let themselves go.
They sang, danced, cheered and shouted for every jump of Tesla!
"Why were they so close just now?"
While being shocked, this was also the biggest question for the audience in front of the TV and all the hosts participating in the live broadcast.
Times Building.
Qin Hai was also full of doubts:
"Xiao Ding, if you say it was us flower growers who did this, I believe it, but these guys..." He pointed to the crazy crowd at his feet, shook his head in disbelief, "It's incredible."
"The power of money~" Ding Tao replied with a strange expression.
"money?"
"The twists and turns during the second round of financing made the boss play a trick on the employee option awards that should have been cashed in at that time. Today's two targeted investments actually include stock awards for these people."
Qin Hai suddenly realized: "It's all about money?!"
"What do you think?" Ding Tao rolled his eyes and said disdainfully, "Besides money, what else can make these 'free' people as good as flower growers?"
Qin Hai suddenly began to gloat. He looked at the representatives of the 'freedom' people not far away and mocked: "Now, the trouble has turned to them!"
"They are still winning," Ding Tao stared at the K-line chart and said softly, "119.95, the 120 mark is about to come out."
10:54 minutes and 30 seconds. Tesla stock price 119.95.
In the United Capital Circle, the assistant ran over sweating profusely and quickly reported:
"We only had time to withdraw 74% of the sell orders."
John Mark looked gloomily at the soaring K-line chart and said harshly:
"There are still 20 seconds left, ready for delivery!"
"..." The assistant looked embarrassed.
"What's wrong?"
The presidents finally realized something was wrong and looked at UBS's first Boston assistant.
"They refused to contact us."
John Mark and other CEOs looked at each other, and the ominous premonition in their hearts became more and more serious: "Don't they care about huge liquidated damages?"
"Everyone," Nancy stepped forward and explained honestly, "I just received news: Tesla has gathered many actuaries downstairs."
"..."
John Mark, who understood what Tesla was going to do, did not panic, and said solemnly: "Since he is willing to pay liquidated damages, of course we are happy to accept it. But we must confirm contact with the other party, and I want OTC bets to be delivered immediately!"
"John..." Nancy continued. Although it was very satisfying to be on the winner's side, she still pretended to be 'sad' here. "Did you overlook something? The agreement on the delivery time.
It seems you drew it yourself??”
"f****k m***," John Mark swore and grabbed the assistant's lapel: "No matter what method you use, get in touch with the other party!"
After saying that, he took the lead and walked out of the banquet hall.
Zhao is on the stage downstairs, he wants to see him, he must see him!
That was Zhao's highly leveraged bet on pledging Tesla's shares. If the stock price continued to go like this, he knew what fate he would face!
…………
"Guys, it's our turn!"
On the top floor of the Times Building in New York, a banquet was held to celebrate the listing. On the sub-floor that people didn't know about, the most elite actuaries in Manhattan were gathered.
The stock's growth rate changes at any time, and so does the price, but as long as the expected return calculated in real time is more than the liquidated damages, Zhao Song will delay the delivery indefinitely!
…………
December 20, 10:55.
The huge dam breaks!
Tesla stock price 120.01.
Zhao Song’s total assets: US$34.4 billion. Ranked third in the world.
…………
The red Tesla comes from the red seed flower.
If red must be used to celebrate Tesla's listing, then red blood must be the best gift.
For Zhao Song, who died wherever he went, he could actually die!
