Chapter 373 NVIDIA Corporation

In addition to Tesla, Link also holds 16.5% of Twitter shares and 450,000 shares of Amazon.

Twitter is not yet listed. After three rounds of financing, its market value has reached 1.8 billion US dollars, and 16.5% of the shares are worth about 280 million.

This year, Amazon has escaped the impact of the financial crisis. The stock price has risen from 336 US dollars at the beginning of the year to 396 US dollars now, and the market value has risen to 68.8 billion US dollars.

450,000 shares of Amazon are worth about 182 million US dollars.

Adding these together, his net worth is about 1.2 billion US dollars, which is neither the 1 billion said by the Wall Street Journal nor the 1.5 billion estimated by the New York Post.

As for the money from his tour, record sales and boxing matches, part of it has not yet arrived. The part that has arrived has been invested in Tesla and Twitter stocks one after another, and cannot be added together.

He also asked Cathy what good investment projects are currently available.

Cathy handed over a tablet with a document on it. It was a potential investment project researched by the investment department of Pioneer Asset Management. The ratings ranged from five stars to one star. The more stars, the greater the investment potential.

Due to the success of Facebook, many similar social software have become popular in the eyes of Wall Street investment banks. The same is true in this table. Almost all of the top companies are Internet technology companies, including WhatsApp, Instagram, Foursquare, etc.

Link browsed through it and suddenly saw a familiar company name, NVIDIA, followed by a note that it is an artificial intelligence computing company that mainly designs display chips and motherboard chipsets.

The company was founded in 1993 by a Chinese American named Jason Huang. It went public in 1999 and its current market value is 13.8 billion US dollars.

The reason for the recommendation given by the Pioneer Asset Management Research Department is:

This company is a leading manufacturer in the global 3D graphics technology and digital media processor industry. The company's founder and manager Jason Huang is also an outstanding entrepreneur.

From the company's listing to this year, although the development has not been smooth, the market value has increased by less than 10 billion in more than ten years, but it has also made steady progress and is a relatively promising Internet company.

The reason for not recommending is: With the development of smart phones in recent years, this field has been thriving. Nvidia also announced last year that it would enter the field of smart phone research and learn to manufacture mobile computing chips, but this field is quite competitive.

Nvidia is a manufacturer of computer chip software. Many of its technical products cannot be reasonably applied to computers. For example, Nvidia's chip GPU can process 3D graphics and data, but the chip has a large load and cannot operate normally in a mobile phone. The price is also relatively high.

This also led to Nvidia's failure to change careers and had to give up this market. The company also suffered a lot of losses, with a market value of about 16 billion US dollars falling to the current 13.8 billion US dollars.

The research department of Pioneer Asset Management Company gave Nvidia a three-star rating, which is neither good nor bad.

Link touched his chin and remembered that Nvidia seemed to be a company with a market value of more than one trillion US dollars. It was also a leader in the field of artificial intelligence semiconductors in the future and had achieved great success in the field of automated driving and unmanned driving research.

This company was mediocre 20 years ago, but it can often be seen in the news 20 years later.

What he didn't expect was that the current market value of this company was only 13.8 billion US dollars, less than one-fifth of Amazon, and it had greater potential than investment projects such as Twitter and Amazon.

Link pondered for a while, read it again from beginning to end, checked three more promising projects, including Nvidia, and handed them to Ms. Cathy, asking her to arrange someone to focus on investigating these three projects and come up with a detailed investment report.

If it is really good, you can consider investing.

Ms. Cathy Wood took it and looked at it, saying that she would give him a report next week.

Cathy then said that he had shares in many companies and Golden Shell Investment, which was more troublesome to manage, and suggested that he set up an investment company or asset management company to improve management efficiency.

When necessary, he could also use this company to raise funds. If it does well, it may be listed in the future.

Link thought about it and thought it was a good idea.

He had a lot of work to do, and he had to read the investment reports sent by Cathy every week. There were a lot of numbers and tables on these reports, which often made him dizzy.

In addition, there were things about Link Music, Dynasty Promotions, World Tour, Boxing Matches, Palm Beach Pictures, Wanda Pictures, Palm Bay Agency, Dolphin Bay Agency, etc.

There were also seven or eight movies, and he had to call several girlfriends every week.

There were too many things to do, and he had to find a way to reduce his burden.

It was also a good idea to set up an asset management company.

While chatting with Cathy, he saw an acquaintance coming in from outside.

The man was in his forties or fifties, with a slightly bald head, a beer belly, and casual clothes. He was followed by a young woman in her thirties. The two walked and talked, and their posture was very intimate.

He stared at the man for a few times while drinking coffee, and found that he was really an acquaintance, Mr. Tom Swift.

I haven't seen this future father-in-law and grandfather for a while. He looks pretty good, much better than when he was in a wheelchair.

I heard from Taylor before that he was transferred to work at the headquarters of Morgan Investment Bank, and it seems to be true.

He saw Tom put his hand on the woman's thigh and rubbed it gently, and took out a box with the Cartier logo from his pocket and placed it on the coffee table. The woman opened the box, hugged his neck, and looked at the greasy old face. A kiss.

The old father-in-law laughed and was about to hug the woman when he suddenly met Link's eyes. In an instant, the expression on his face froze, and the muscles in the corners of his eyes twitched, showing an embarrassed expression.

Link smiled softly, stood up and walked towards his old father-in-law, Tom. When meeting him on such an occasion, it would be awkward to say hello, and it would be awkward not to say hello, so he went to embarrass himself.

Tom also stood up and walked over, stretched out his hand to shake his hand in the aisle, and glanced at Cathie Wood.

"Link, are you dating?"

"Tom, this is Miss Cathie Wood, my investment manager."

Link introduced.

Tom laughed and said hello to Cathy. Both of them were in the financial industry. Although there were many people on Wall Street, Tom had a celebrity daughter and Cathy was a rising star in investment banking. They also knew each other.

"Link, you did a good job investing in Tesla this time. Many consortiums on Wall Street didn't dare to get involved at first, but you dared, which is amazing."

Tom praised.

"This is all Cathy's fault."

"Although managers are important on Wall Street, it is rare for clients to trust managers and entrust us with their money."

Tom said as he adjusted his glasses frame.

Link smiled, said there was an opportunity to cooperate, and prepared to leave.

Tom nodded in agreement, and before leaving, he told him that Taylor was pregnant and emotionally unstable. He hoped he would have time to go and see her, and it was best not to say anything unhappy or make her angry.

Link understood what he meant, smiled softly, and then separated from Tom and continued chatting with Cathy.

Tom sat in the booth opposite for three or four minutes, drank a cup of coffee in a polite manner, and then left with the lady.

When Link saw his back, he felt that Mrs. Andrea was also having a hard time. She was busy with Taylor's affairs every day and had no time to take care of the family. Now her husband was looking for a young man outside behind her back. He didn't know what she would do if she found out. What do you think?

However, he had no intention of snitching. This was Taylor's family matter, and he didn't seem qualified to intervene now.

Thinking of Taylor, he picked up his phone and tried to send a message, but unexpectedly found that he had been removed from the blacklist again.

"I just met your dad."

This was the first message, and I didn’t expect it to be successful.

"I was discussing some work on Wall Street. I accidentally saw Tom here. It's okay. I just wanted to ask how you are doing now. I want to come and see you. Can I make an appointment?"

This is the second message, still sent successfully.

"It was my fault that you got pregnant. On the night of April 13th, we worked for three hours in a row until you couldn't even move a finger. I asked you if you could forgive me for once and don't leave. But You still firmly said that you want to leave.

I was very angry at the time and impulsively took off the condom quietly. I wanted to use this method to keep you. Afterwards, I reflected many times and realized that I had done an unforgivable stupid thing.

Two months later, I didn't hear any news about your pregnancy. I thought it was unsuccessful, so I was a little disappointed, but also relieved. Fortunately, I didn't hurt you again.

I came back from South Korea a while ago and suddenly heard the news that you were pregnant. This is undoubtedly great news for me. Our child will be as smart and beautiful as you and as strong as me. I am looking forward to seeing the child. Although I am not a good boyfriend, I will definitely strive to be a good father. Please give me a chance. "

This is the third message.

"I wonder how about playing the piano to your child while you are pregnant so that he can become a singer when he grows up?"

"Are you going to attend the MTV awards ceremony the day after tomorrow?"

After sending seven or eight messages in a row without getting a response, he looked at the time and told Taylor that it was time to leave.

Ding dong!

As he and Cathy walked to the door, he received a message on his phone.

"I can play the piano, better than you. The child is mine and I will take good care of him. You don't need to worry about it. Ivaca is a good woman and is more suitable for you than me."

Taylor said.

Link was a little surprised that someone as unforgiving as Taylor would also praise Ivaca?

"What did you talk about last time?"

"It has nothing to do with you."

"I hope I can come and see you and the child when I have time. I heard that children who are accompanied by their father will be more masculine when they grow up. Fatty James, you know, in a single-parent family, growing up with the mother, the character becomes more cowardly. Timid, I hope to play a role in the growth of my children.”

"No need, I get angry when I see you. It would be good for me and the child if you don't show up in front of me."

"The kids need me."

After the message is sent, non-friends are displayed.
