Google's Nasdaq debut was grand and tragic. Baidu Search Geili Literature Network

Larry Page, Sergey Brin, and perhaps Schmidt, the three senior executives at the helm of Google, insisted on challenging Wall Street and adopted a Dutch auction for this fundraising and listing. In a Dutch auction, investors need to enter the number of shares they want to buy and the price they are willing to pay for these shares, and then investors with the highest bids get priority to buy shares until all shares are sold. Clearly, the value Google's founders had in mind for the company didn't quite match what the public was willing to pay.

When he realized that the situation was not as good as he thought, Page revised the pricing range to $85 to $90 per share, but the final listing price was only $85, which is the lowest limit of this pricing range. . Google sold $19.6 million at that price, while Page originally hoped to sell 25.9 million shares at $108 to $135 each.

The front and rear drop can be said to be large enough to be unbearable.

For this listing, Google originally hoped to raise about 3 billion yuan, but the result was only half of this figure, which was less than 1.7 billion.

When the listing price was settled, even though the NASDAQ stock market crashed, Google was already one of the few technology companies that could successfully conduct a large-scale investment. But this figure clearly leaves Page with a major gap.

The reason, of course, is that there is a problem with Page's decision-making.

The Dutch auction is not completely impossible to use, such as mb, which may be relatively more suitable for this method.

This auction method strictly requires the confidence of investors and stockholders in listed companies. Will be fired even higher.

Page hadn't thought of that. The degree of recognition of Google in his mind did not agree with investors. People don't buy Google that much, and not that many people think Google is going to be a respectable company. In addition, Page also highly valued everyone's psychological endurance since the stock market crash.

To some extent, Google is the forerunner who was sacrificed. From the beginning of Google, technology stocks began to glow with new brilliance, and people began to realize the huge wealth and opportunities that search engines will bring, and even more Internet business opportunities.

According to the additional terms of Google's capital injection and acquisition at that time, that is, the gradient acquisition agreement between Plutos and Google-these are all public information. What needs to be explained to investors. Google's total fundraising is less than 2 billion,

Plutos owns 10 million original shares of Google at a price of 70% of the listed issue price.

In any case, this is a lucrative business.

In the complicated Google incident, Plutos has undoubtedly become the winner without doubt.

A total of about 600 million U.S. dollars in total acquisitions is acceptable to Plutos. At the current price alone, Plutos has already booked about 200 million. What's more, the rising trend of stock prices is inevitable, and this may become the biggest purchase of this year. A stock market operation that has attracted much attention.

...

Do you think that's believable?

Robert pointed to the front page of The Wall Street Journal. In a not-so-small area below the headline of Google's listing, the bold headline is conspicuously harsh.

Daniel Sandler, the behind-the-scenes king of the social kingdom?

In front of him was not Dick Cook from the headquarters. It was Bob and Harvey—the Weinstein brothers.

Bob took a deep breath. Daniel's appearance on NASDAQ yesterday really gave them an unparalleled shock. If Daniel is really mb and f2f. Even the manipulator behind Google, his wealth will be counted in billions of dollars, which has far exceeded the valuation of Miramax. What's more, mb hasn't been listed yet, it's a bit listed, who can say that it's not the second Google? That is a Big Mac at the tens of billions level, and Disney has a market value of only tens of billions in a century.

This is really too unbelievable. Robert invited them over, but he couldn't confirm the facts.

If this is true, I'm afraid Disney's previous actions will be miscalculated?

Harvey said suddenly, some unspoken things, it is not so embarrassing to say it at this time.

Robert's face was more serious than he said.

In fact, there is no need to think about what Daniel's new identity can do. Once he is confirmed, his special status in Hollywood will be established. It is impossible for Disney to suppress Daniel. Of course, Hollywood has Hollywood rules, but in the face of unprecedented situations, Robert is not sure what effect such rules can play.

At this time, countless people across the United States are speculating on the authenticity of the Wall Street Journal report.

There was only one person who was almost certain.

Ace, the website editor of USA Today-the news editor who almost found out about Daniel's backside. When Apple and Imp reached a deal, he once explored the relationship between Daniel and Plutos behind mb.

As a journalist, Ace has the habit of scanning the latest news, scanning the headlines of news from major websites one by one.

As the most popular report today, including USA Today itself has relevant news, this will definitely enter Ace's eyes.

It's just that when he saw this piece of news, Ace was stunned.

My God, my God, my God.

What's wrong with you? Ace, did someone put a scorpion on the stool? His colleague saw that he had a hot dumpling in his mouth, and he wanted to spit it out but was reluctant, and he couldn't speak if he didn't spit it out.

No no no, Daniel, Daniel.

The colleague understood what he meant this time and sighed.

Do you think that's true? Maybe he just has original shares in Google like Schwarzenegger. He has a lot of connections in Silicon Valley. This is not unusual news. Oh, by the way, the last time he visited When it comes to Google, you make the news. But if it's true, it's terrible. Is he the youngest super rich man? Will he be on Fox? God is so partial to him, what kind of person is like this It’s all gone, but I’m still worrying about next month’s bills.”

Ace's colleagues, already stunned by the news, were now full of complaints.

No, no, Ace managed to calm down. He paused, and immediately rushed to the boss's office. After a while, the editor-in-chief of the online media department of USA Today rushed out with him like a whirlwind.

Colleagues who realized that something was wrong also gathered around.

Ace turns on his computer. From the layers of folders, I found the file from DD Films.

Daniel, David, and Plutos Investment Company!

My God! The editor-in-chief sighed, Right now, Ace, edit the manuscript and hand it over to me.

The editor-in-chief returned to the office like a whirlwind.

The colleague who realized it later realized it now, Does this mean that DD Films is also invested by Plutos?

Although confirming this news, in itself does not provide infallible proof that Daniel is the person behind Plutos. But Plutos, who was born out of nowhere, was found to have another investment behavior. It just so happens to be Daniel Sandler's independent studio -- that's too much of a coincidence.

In many cases, whether it is the media or the public, they don't need full proofs. What they need are reasons to convince themselves. Looking at it now, Plutos's investment in DD Films is undoubtedly a reason for people to convince themselves.

...

It's expected, isn't it?

Cusa said bitterly.

Never stop ringing phone. A flood of e-mails, a torrent of news reports...

Had Daniel not been at his Malibu home, it would have been full of guests in no time.

We will hold a press conference on August 21. Explain this matter.

Responding to a caller again with a standard answer, Kousa felt a little off.

They are in a hotel in New York, and they don't live with Larry Page. Page must be too busy now, but Daniel can be lazy.

Last night, Paige had a sleepless night and drank a lot of wine with Daniel outside.

Google's successful listing is good news, but for Page, it is indeed a setback.

Mb will be handed over to the bastards on Wall Street?

Daniel nodded, It should be. I would also like to thank you. Google's listing has brought some encouragement to mb anyway. Even if it cooperates with Wall Street, it will not fall on the weak side.

This is true, even if Google is calculated, there is no need for mb to be afraid of it.

Google's listing crisis stems from investors' doubts about technology stocks and distrust of Google itself. Wall Street's promoters played an important role, but this role does not mean it is decisive. Relatively speaking, mb is more well-known than Google. Although Google has more users than mb, as the top social platform, mb deals with the public, whether it is investors or stockholders. The operating model and profit model are well understood. What's more, the profitability of mb has long been recognized. Although mb has shifted its focus from profit to attracting users after receiving another capital injection from Google and Plutos, but Its profit model has been optimized, all of which are carried out under the eyes of investors who are waiting around.

Therefore, their recognition of mb actually exceeds that of Google.

After all, Google's annual profit is indeed more than 200 million yuan, but the advertising revenue alone is somewhat uncertain anyway.

Considering these differences, even if mb adopts a Dutch auction, Wall Street may not be able to do too much. Google is covered with a layer of cloth, and investors cannot see the meat inside. It is possible to be manipulated by Wall Street. MB is already a glaring piece of fat. At this time, it is very difficult to lower the price in a unified way.

Page apparently thought of that too.

Did you know the result a long time ago? Page's tone was very calm, and he didn't need to be angry. Although it was not perfect, there was always a beginning, otherwise he would not insist on setting the listing price at $85. When we talked about capital injection mb and revenue, you expected this result? So there is that gradient agreement.

Daniel thought for a while, then nodded, I have this guess, and a lot of work is based on this.

Paige was amused by his candor, and heaved a sigh of relief.

Tomorrow's news will definitely be you. Daniel, are you ready to become a businessman?

No, I'm ready to go to Berkeley.

Stunned for a moment, Page felt that maybe he shouldn't come to drink with Daniel.

...

Wow, Daniel, do you see how powerful the media is?

Trevor turned the computer screen over to show Daniel.

USA TODAY?

Ace's fresh report has now been reprinted worldwide.

New Evidence: Daniel and Plutos Had an Intersection

...in the original investor file of dd Films, it clearly stated 'Plutos Investment Company', but now this company no longer appears on the file of dd Films. Has it withdrawn from the company, or is it based on Daniel continues to control DD Films in the name of Daniel. It is foreseeable that there must be some kind of close relationship between Daniel Sandler and Plutos. This is even before Plutos invested in mb and f2f companies. In other words, after investing in a Hollywood independent studio, Plutos created a social era...

In the report, the picture of Ace was also placed on it.

mb, Google, f2f, apple, dd film, Daniel, Plutos, these nouns are all circled, and lines are used to indicate the relationship between each other.

It is obvious that they are all deeply related to Daniel, and the connection between Plutos and other individuals is highly consistent with Daniel.

Daniel is an iconic figure of mb and f2f, and has been committed to promoting the rapid development of mb and f2f many times. At the same time, Plutos is the holder of these two companies.

Daniel is a suspected shareholder of Google. He was once invited to visit the company and communicate directly with Larry Page. Daniel is still, now, the most popular user of Google. Plutos is an important shareholder of Google.

Not to mention the latest exposure of DD Films, the two parties almost overlap and are both shareholders of DD Films.

Even Apple, which is not so obvious, can find some clues. Daniel has a lot of Apple stocks, and Plutos has also contacted Apple—it is rumored to be a cooperation in the field of smartphones.

Ace's diagram can be said to be clear and unambiguous.

Daniel and Plutos are tied in the middle, an equal sign is placed between them, and a question mark is placed on the equal sign.

This is the answer? Daniel is the behind-the-scenes boss of this famous social network investment company? Although it is so unbelievable, in the face of a lot of evidence, we seem to have to believe that in the super global idol, three Oscar winners, re-elected actor, producer In addition to the roles of factory owner and billionaire, Daniel has a new identity—a business tycoon!
