Chapter 407 Listing Plan
The first list of employees who are eligible to buy houses at low prices will be announced at the annual meeting before Christmas this year. Ye Dongqing happened to be available today, so come and take a look in advance.
By the second quarter of next year, ordinary apartment-style residences can also be delivered. Employees of several companies only need to pay very little rent and daily management fees to enjoy relatively good living, living facilities, schools, hospitals, and sports facilities. In the future, a golf course may be built next to it, just like a satellite town in Santa Clara.
As the scale of the industry expands, the number of employees in Silicon Valley is increasing.
It’s okay if you are alone, but some families can only separate the two places for rent and children’s education. Many people will be able to settle here next. The scale and quality of the private school are likely to rank among the top 50 in the United States, and work together with many famous schools to build it.
These are all employee benefits, and some bosses have the ability to do so, but they are afraid of trouble and do not want to pay too much for their employees.
Ye Dongqing hopes that they will find a sense of belonging in their company, and by the way, they will also regard it as a wealthy person to buy horse bones. Because of the high salary and high benefits, and the position increase system is relatively reasonable, even though the wolf-like management system is adopted with the last-place elimination system, it has become a popular enterprise that makes headhunting companies worry-free.
After random inspections of several buildings, it felt quite good. Ye Dongqing ordered: "Take some time, post announcements in those companies, and open some houses for them to come and take a look first, especially middle and low-level managers, telling them that as long as they work hard, they may have these things.
The houses obtained by executives, financial officers, and operation officers are bigger, right? Where are those villas?"
There are many people standing around.
The project manager responsible for the construction project told him: "The location is better than this one. It is located on a small hill. The Bay of San Francisco can be seen on the top. It is about twice the size of these, and the front and back gardens are also larger. Let's go and take a look?"
As for the house, no matter how beautiful it is, can it compare to Ye Dongqing’s own buildings?
It's enough to take a look. The smell left behind from the decoration made him feel uncomfortable. He said casually: "Forget it, I want to go to the school and the mall. When will the investment promotion work start? It doesn't have to be too high-end, it can meet people's living needs. I heard that under the guidance of this project, there is already land around that has been taken down by developers?"
"It's almost like that. Nvidia is in Santa Clara. It is said that Apple may also move some of its business here. In addition, Intel is quite suitable for building high-end apartments, and the price is lower than that of Palo Aldo, Menlo Park and other areas. In the south, a community with about 300 houses will soon be built. The developers have come to discuss the school with us. They hope to open the admission threshold so that children in their community can also get admission opportunities."
The person who spoke was a middle-aged Jew who was sent by Tamsui Investment Group to supervise the project.
Ye Dongqing thought for a while and replied: "Yes, but the tuition fee may be slightly higher. The company's employees must have children, and external students must have them. Let's communicate with each other. In the future, no one employee will have to transfer to school after leaving the job. These should be considered."
No one cares when someone talks, but he is different. The person in charge even took out a small notebook and wrote it down. No matter whether he really can't remember it or not, he must have done enough work on the surface.
One of the reasons why Ye Dongqing doesn’t like socializing recently is that she can receive too many praises and compliments wherever she goes. It seems that because she is rich, she is not an ordinary person with flesh and blood. He doesn’t like that very much, or he says that he hears too much or reads too much, and it feels boring. At first, it was pretty good.
After taking some time, I went to the shopping malls and schools that were almost completed and checked out.
According to the person in charge, the investment promotion work has been almost in touch, including coffee shops such as Starbucks and retailers who specialize in selling furniture. Walmart feels that the market here is small and is unwilling to open a store. Instead, Carrefour is enough to meet people's daily needs and is not far from a larger supermarket.
Looking at it this way, life here will probably be more comfortable in the future and basically no major problems will be found, which is enough.
**********
The Internet industry boom has emerged again.
In 2000, in 2001, funds continued to withdraw, and now they are flocking in again. While the valuations and market value of many companies have increased, Ye Dongqing's value has also been pushed up.
As the unlisted Internet company with the highest market value in the world, Facebook has always been the focus of investors' attention. Currently, its global number of registered users exceeds 600 million, and the accounts frequently used are as many as 390 million. Although there are bubbles in the valuation, it is relatively small, because Facebook can indeed make a lot of money, mainly through its advertising business to make profits.
In comparison, the number of users of another company is not low, but it has not yet found a very good profit growth point.
Whatsapp, since IQ gradually fell behind, another social giant that has just risen shortly, like Facebook, has all its equity in the hands of Ye Dongqing. With more than 200 million users around the world, the latest valuation is as high as 7.5 billion US dollars. A total of 23 brokerages have issued this offer. Unfortunately, Ye Dongqing has never had the intention to raise funds or go public, and the valuation is just valuation.
How to say it.
The company has risen too smoothly. With the user resources accumulated by Facebook, the number of users exceeded 40 million in just three months. Then it rose rapidly. After launching the video communication business, it was even more prosperous. Voice messaging technology was also launched, and no strong competitors were found.
It is precisely because the development is so smooth that Ye Dongqing rarely pays attention to it. Only more than 400 employees have supported such a huge market and almost no need to worry about managing it.
This time, Ye Dongqing came to Silicon Valley to announce a big news - he was preparing to let whatsapp go public first. He set the initial hiring time in January next year, mainly because he kept holding on to the listing, which led to some negative voices from Washington under the promotion of some people. At the same time, because the company's profit scale is limited, it is estimated that there will be no major improvement in the short term. Instead, it is constantly consuming funds for market expansion.
Half a year since Tencent went public, it will be the second company incubated by Ye Dongqing. Facebook will most likely be listed next year. It’s not that it can’t be able to support it anymore. The money Facebook earns itself is enough to maintain operations.
However, after reaching this scale, the growth space has gradually become smaller. It is better to cash out some money and continue to invest in other places. In addition, it can also reduce the debt pressure of Danshui Investment Group and use the money to do something Ye Dongqing wants to do more.
The news has not been released yet, and others are not clear yet. Ye Dongqing has thought about this more than once, and the conclusion he has reached is that he can go public now. Don’t forget that there will be a ban on sales period ranging from half a year to a few years. By then, the stocks in his hands will definitely be more valuable.
