Although these journalists in the audience can't be regarded as laymen, after all, they all run the IT line and have a certain understanding of the Internet.
However, they may not understand how difficult it is to achieve the scale and volume of Facebook!
Moreover, if you make your own social platform, you will definitely not be able to enter the field of instant network communication, because there are already two giants, ICQ and MSN.
It can only be a blogging website, that is, to compete with Facebook.
Is that easy?
Just kidding, Facebook already has a whopping 5000 million registered users!
What's even more frightening is that the user activity and stickiness of this website are ridiculously high.
Larry Page and the others are experts on the Internet, and they have done research on Facebook for a long time.
After much discussion within the company, it was dismayed to realize that Google couldn't make a site like this.
If you imitate Facebook, you will likely face legal action from Facebook.
If Facebook is just a small company, then Google may not care, just fight the lawsuit, drag you for a few years, and see who can't hold it first.
But the problem is, Facebook headquarters has billions of dollars in cash!
Richer than Google.
Moreover, the North American IT circle has long understood the Facebook style of doing things.
When Facebook Games first entered North America and opened a new company, it was hit with a big lawsuit.
That team of lawyers...
It fully shows that this is a company that protects its own interests at any cost.
For such a company, no one dares to provoke it.
If you really want to file a lawsuit, let alone win or lose, it is estimated that you will be dragged down first.
Competing and not being able to compete, copying and imitating this road but not daring to go, Google is also very helpless, can only pay to buy shares, and choose to take a ride on Facebook.
Because Larry Page and the others are very optimistic about this social platform, thinking that it will be a more promising Internet model than portal websites.
So when I heard that Facebook North America was going to expand its stock and raise funds, I hurried over here.
As for the price, although it feels a bit high, the other three giants have agreed, so what can they do, they can only bite the bullet and agree.
…………
"Madam, regarding the valuation of Facebook, please believe in the professionalism of our companies. Especially this time, with the addition of Citibank, I believe they will know better than anyone else that Facebook North America Inc. How much is it worth?"
Larry Page said politely that in order to prove that Google's investment was correct, he also deliberately pulled Citibank out as an endorsement.
You may question the decision-makers at Google and overestimate the value of Facebook North America.
However, no one should be able to question Citibank's professionalism in investment evaluation, right?
Even Citigroup paid for the shares, so of course Google did nothing wrong.
Hearing Larry Page mentioned his side, William Rhodes also smiled and said: "Everyone, in fact, there is a very direct reference for the valuation of Facebook North America, and that is Facebook Mainland. Everyone You should know, what is the current market value of Facebook Mainland China? Of course, its market value also includes part of the valuation of Facebook North America.”
With that said, the reporters in the audience fell silent.
The market value of Facebook has reached as high as 400 billion US dollars, this is something everyone knows!
Even if there is 120 billion US dollars, it belongs to the valuation of Facebook North America.
Excluding this part, the market value of Facebook Mainland China is still as high as 280 billion US dollars.
The market that Facebook's mainland company is facing is only a mainland market.
Facebook North America is for the whole world!
Chapter 885
Yu Wenfei did not stand on the stage to accept questions from reporters.
Of course, he also came to the scene.
He only showed up at the end when signing contracts with several new shareholders.
As the original shareholder representative of Facebook North America, we welcome new investors to join us.
Yu Wenfei's appearance naturally caused another commotion.
The reporters present were no strangers to him.
Although I haven't seen Yu Wenfei in person, I don't know how many times I have seen his photos and videos in their respective media magazines.
This time, it was rare for Yu Wenfei to show up, so everyone naturally wanted to do an exclusive interview for him.
He is currently the hottest person in the global Internet industry!
…………
Just after signing the contract, I took a photo with a few people.
Yu Wenfei shook hands with Ballmer and Jim Walton respectively, thanking everyone for their trust and support on Facebook.
After doing this, he stepped off the stage and prepared to leave.
Who knew, just as he walked down, a female reporter rushed out and stopped him.
"Mr. Yu Wenfei, may I have an exclusive interview with you, I am Susan, a reporter from San Francisco IT Vision Magazine."
Yu Wenfei was taken aback and stopped to take a look.
A typical American girl, tall and tall, with blond hair and fair looks.
He didn't make a sound, but Pei'er immediately took a step forward after following behind, reaching out his hand to stop Susan who was rushing out.
He smiled and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Fei does not accept interviews, please step aside."
Susan looked at Pei'er unconvinced, "Don't you know that I am a reporter? I have the right to interview!"
"We also have the right not to accept interviews." Peer said without flinching.
Seeing that Pei Er couldn't get any cheap, Susan turned her head to look at Yu Wenfei again, and said provocatively: "What? Are you afraid of being stumped by my question? Or are you showing some flaws, and I will expose that your Facebook is basically The hype is not worth so much money at all!"
Yu Wenfei smiled, and finally said a word.
