Unparalleled True Technology

Chapter 141: The Largest Donut in History

Compared with when he first came to this world, Wen Ming has improved a lot. Not only the progress in wealth and social status, but the most important thing is Wen Ming's progress in mentality.

The dangers encountered after every "daydream", as well as the long-term threat of death from cancer, and the incident of being attacked by a killer, all made Wen Ming grow up rapidly.

Facing Sith, he is no longer the junior who needs to listen to teachings, but a boss who can give orders and answer his subordinates' doubts, a capitalist.

"From the current point of view, the ultimate market value of Facebook after listing is about 100 billion U.S. dollars."

Wen Ming explained: "If Teresa Roy can successfully invest in Facebook, then when Facebook goes public, his return on investment can reach 12 billion US dollars. It seems that this ratio of return on investment is very high, but , compared to investing in our Apple company?"

Wen Ming is the only person in the world who knows how much Facebook's market value will reach in the future. Even Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of Facebook, currently only believes that Facebook's market value after listing can exceed 100 billion US dollars , but no one can guarantee how far it can go.

"The valuation of our Apple company has reached 150 billion U.S. dollars. This point, with Bill Gates' shareholding requirements, has been fully determined. So, how much can our market value reach after listing?"

Wen Ming said confidently: "A conservative estimate is 300 billion US dollars, and there will be no problems at all. Because we not only have iPhones and iPads, but also Jurassic Park. The combination of these two business segments cannot be the same. Plus one equals two."

"The same is to double your own investment, why not choose a company that has the potential to become the most valuable company? Moreover, if we only look at the annual dividends that can be obtained by owning shares, we can also provide more benefits than Facebook. Because Facebook The annual revenue of the book is currently only 1 billion US dollars, but our profit has reached 3 billion US dollars per quarter."

"Do you think that a world-class rich man like Teresa Roy would be a fool? Or, why is Bill Gates willing to invest in Apple instead of Facebook with his limited funds?"

After some explanation, Sith suddenly realized, but also felt very relieved.

He didn't know that Wen Ming was no longer the real Wen Ming, not the orphan of his old friend, but a traveler with the ability to "daydream". Therefore, for Wen Ming's current achievements and the way Wen Ming thinks about problems, he sincerely feels gratified and admired.

Sith said: "It seems that you have become a real businessman, or a real capitalist. Don't worry, I will complete the shareholding contract with Facebook as soon as possible and finalize this investment plan. At the same time, I will also urge Teresa Roy to raise the $5 billion as soon as possible."

Wen Ming nodded, and then said: "In addition to these, I think it is necessary for us to start building our company headquarters."

Apple's current office area has been replaced by a high-end office building in Boston. We rented 5 floors from top to bottom, but compared to the growing Apple, it is still not enough.

Therefore, the plan to build Apple's headquarters must be put on the agenda.

Sith asked: "Then I'll find a designer to evaluate first, and then make design drawings. You can talk about your requirements for site selection first."

The rich Apple company builds a headquarters, which is what the title should mean, so Sith and others did not dissuade them in the slightest.

Wen Ming laughed and said: "Actually, I already have a rough design, you can take a look at my design first."

This time, Sith and Cage were stunned at the same time, and the only one who could keep smiling at the scene was Lilith, who was holding an iPad, besides Wen Ming, who was the instigator. In Lilith's smile,

There is also a sense of amazement, because she watched her boss complete the design in her spare time.

The tablet is placed on the table in front of Sith, Cage's head sticks out, and they see a 'spaceship'.

Cage exclaimed: "What the hell is this?"

Sis said: "This...why is it so like a donut?"

In Lilith's chuckle, Wen Ming's expression was slightly embarrassed. This design was not actually designed by him, but the Apple headquarters designed by Steve Jobs in another world, a huge ring-shaped building , and in the middle of the ring is a park.

The name of this building in another world is Apple Park, which means Apple Park, but the outside world usually calls this building the Apple Spaceship Headquarters Building. Because that huge circular building looks like a spaceship parked on the ground.

Of course, it's also like a donut.

After coughing dryly, Wen Ming said, "I will name it Apple Park. It will be our company's headquarters and our company's R\u0026D center. At the same time, it will also become the most famous park in the world that is not open to the public."

Ignoring Sith and Cage's confused eyes, Wen Ming continued: "In my design, it will cover an area of ​​2.8 million square feet and can accommodate at least 12,000 people working in it..."

In the sound of Wen Ming's introduction, Sith and Cage opened their mouths wider and wider, because Wen Ming introduced a design parameter, which means that the construction cost of Apple's new headquarters will increase by at least 100 million US dollars.

At the end, Sith asked dryly, "In your budget, what is the cost of this new headquarters...?"

Wen Ming said with a smile: "It should be around 5 billion US dollars, and the construction time should be completed within four years."

This cost is the cost of the Apple headquarters in another world, and it is also the last work left by Jobs. To commemorate Jobs, there is a Jobs Theater next to this headquarters that can accommodate 1,000 people.

In another world, the construction time of Apple's spaceship headquarters reached 8 years. Of course, for half of the eight years, Apple was coordinating with the local government. After the news was announced in 2011, it was not until the end of 2014 that Apple passed the approval and started construction. Expected to be early 2019.

In addition, during the construction process, Apple also made changes to the design, which affected the construction period.

But these are not problems for Wen Ming, he does not need to change the design, nor does he need to wait for government approval.

Sith and Cage were stunned when they heard the $5 billion. They thought that Wen Ming would invest a lot of money in the construction of the company's headquarters, but they didn't expect to invest so much money.

Cage asked: "Do you have 5 billion US dollars? Don't tell me that you earned 3 billion US dollars in a quarter, unless you don't want to expand your business, such as building a factory that belongs to us, otherwise, you simply don't There is not enough money to invest in this headquarters."

Although Sith didn't ask, he also meant the same thing, but his way of speaking was much more tactful than Cage's.

"Should we wait until we go public before investing in this headquarters?"

Apple in another world built its headquarters many years after it went public. They have the support of countless shareholders, and they can get billions of dollars in cash in the stock market at any time to make any investment.

But now Apple is not yet listed, and the 5 billion US dollars that can be obtained through financing with Teresa Roy is also Wen Ming's private cash, and it has to be invested in Facebook.

Wen Ming shook his head and said, "There's no need to wait, because we don't have to pay 5 billion U.S. dollars at once. As for your plans to invest in factories and build factories that you are worried about, they will not be affected. Believe me, there are already plans in my head. Come up with a new idea, and soon, we’ll be able to launch a new product and make more money.”

Sith and Cage exclaimed at the same time: "Are there new products?"

Wen Ming laughed and said, "Yeah, do you mean that you think I'll start eating at my laurels from now on? That's not my style." 8)
