Chapter 180 Nasdaq
When he worked in the foreign trade bank, Li Yiwen had dealt with many foreign clients and knew that these guys with high noses and deep eyes were the most difficult to serve.
That really fully demonstrates what it means that "money is hard to earn, but shit is hard to eat."
As a result, Lu Yiming now says that it is easier to make money from foreigners and he wants to cut the leeks of foreigners.
This was something Li Yiwen couldn't understand, and his face was full of question marks: "How to cut? Are they going to sanction the Russians again?"
Lu Yiming looked suspicious: "Why do you say 'again'? Their sanctions have never stopped. Forget it, let's not talk about this. In short, the mountain people have their own clever plans."
Li Yiwen was naturally very curious about this: "I say, you are obviously in the mainland, how come you seem to know everything that is happening in the world? This is not scientific."
Lu Yiming was reminded of his past by these words. He thought back to the time when he was at least a level 10 boss on the forum, where he discussed ancient and modern times, and talked about China and foreign countries with a group of "like-minded" silly netizens. They could talk about everything from the sky to gossip, and they could make speeches and give advice on the country, no matter whether it was the president of the beacon country's ability to control zippers or the subprime mortgage crisis. He could talk about it in detail.
Because Lu Yiming was often treated as a fool when trading stocks, he worked hard and conducted in-depth research and discussion on the development of the world's financial industry.
at last……
Still being treated like leeks and harvested , it is so sad that I cannot tell outsiders about it.
However, reading a lot of books is always beneficial. At least Lu Yiming knows the development trends of the domestic and international financial industries very well.
That's why Lu Yiming set his sights on the United States, where both technology and stock markets are developing rapidly.
"Since the end of the Cold War in the late 1980s, peace and development have become the trend of the times. The global unified market has taken shape, and the Internet came into being as a result. Cousin, do you know what this means?"
"What does it mean?"
"This means that in the next few decades, industries related to the Internet will be the absolute protagonists of the era. This is destiny. Those who follow it will prosper, and those who go against it will perish."
Li Yiwen couldn't help laughing out loud: "Internet? Just those few crappy websites on the computer that take several minutes to open?"
It’s no wonder Li Yiwen thinks this way. There is still a huge gap between China’s current infrastructure and that of the United States, especially in the areas of computers and the Internet, where the gap is even greater.
Right now in China, the Internet speed is still very slow, and the number of personal computers in use is only 3.4212 million. This base is too small to support an emerging market with a population of 1.2 billion.
If the Internet wants to develop, it needs fertile soil, but how can towering trees grow in the current poor "soil" in the country?
However, Lu Yiming knew how rapid the development of Xia Country's Internet industry would be in the future.
Many Internet companies that started early have inexplicably become industry giants, dominating the industry and becoming unstoppable before they even realize it.
Therefore, plan early and reap the benefits early.
Lu Yiming's gaze also traveled across the ocean and fell on the beautiful country on the other side of the ocean.
Since 1995, the United States has entered a period of Internet investment frenzy. Until the arrival of the Internet winter in 2000, shareholders and investors in the United States have been frantically chasing any Internet-related stocks and listed companies.
They would wave their money around to buy any company related to the word "Internet", so much so that in Silicon Valley, stories about poor boys starting a business and then becoming rich overnight are circulating every day.
In Lu Yiming's opinion, these beautiful green leeks can be harvested by the vampires on Wall Street, but why can't I?
That's not possible !
Lu Yiming said to Li Yiwen solemnly: "It doesn't matter if it takes a few minutes or not. We are still young and have plenty of time. So, I plan to let Future Capital test the waters at Nasdaq."
Li Yiwen remembered what Lu Yiming said just now, that the money of Future Capital would be used to cut foreign leeks, and now he said he would go to Nasdaq. He was immediately surprised: "Damn, you kid are not going to use the money to invest in stocks at Nasdaq?"
Lu Yiming corrected him seriously, "Look at what you said. What do you mean by 'going to Nasdaq to trade stocks'? I'm clearly going to the lighthouse of humanity to invest in value."
Li Yiwen didn't believe it at all, and his tone was even more suspicious: "I think you are just trying to speculate, right?"
Lu Yiming interrupted his complaints: "Why do you care so much? Isn't it good enough to make money? The US stock market is currently caught up in the Internet craze. Even a fool can make money. Remember these stocks and buy as many as you can. When I ask you to sell, remember to sell them as soon as possible."
The stocks that Lu Yiming asked Li Yiwen to buy were all the top 20 Internet companies in the United States at that time, such as AOL, Yahoo, MSN, Amazon and other star companies.
By holding the stocks of these companies, you can make a fortune by taking advantage of the Internet investment boom, and then sell them when the market is almost at its peak, and then short sell them to make another fortune.
For high-quality stocks such as Amazon, you can take advantage of the stock price crash to buy at a low price and make another profit.
All in all, it's like killing three birds with one stone, making a fortune!
In the information age, intelligence itself is wealth. Looking at the world today, who can judge the direction of the general trend more accurately than Lu Yiming?
Therefore, for Lu Yiming, using the money to reap profits from the U.S. stock market is a sure win.
Li Yiwen thought for a moment - what was the topic just now? Wasn't it Lin Shuyi who asked Lu Yiming to be a shield? How come it turned into going to Nasdaq to reap the leeks? And he was tempted right then and there. Wasn't this topic too far-fetched?
"No, shouldn't we find a time to discuss this properly? It's the middle of the night, and I'm afraid you may not be in your right mind."
Lu Yiming said, "Come on, I'm very clear-headed. Hurry up and take a piece of paper and write it down. This is the most important business for us in the coming period."
Li Yiwen took a deep breath and said excitedly, "Doesn't that mean I'll have to stay on the other side of the ocean permanently?"
Lu Yiming was also helpless and said, "I know the conditions there are tough. You should overcome them first. We are here to make money."
Li Yiwen was excited: "Why do I have to work so hard? Going abroad is such a good thing, so many people would beg for it!"
Nowadays, people from the inland want to go to Hong Kong, and those who have made it in Hong Kong want to go abroad, preferably to the beautiful country across the ocean, as if even the air there that smells of gunpowder and smoke is sweet.
Seeing that Li Yiwen was eager to try, Lu Yiming was helpless. He really didn't understand why Li Yiwen was so eager. However, this is actually the normal mentality of most people in this era. Anyway, as long as there is a little chance, they want to go to the United States.
Li Yiwen has now achieved financial freedom, so Lu Yiming naturally would not hinder Li Yiwen's ideas. He just reminded him: "After you go there, keep in touch at any time to ensure that information is timely and smooth. Oh, by the way, after you arrive in the United States, go to Silicon Valley and find a way to invest in a small company that has not yet gone public."
On the other end of the phone, Li Yiwen also took out a piece of paper and a pen: "Okay, no problem. What's the name of that small company?"
“Google.”
