Chapter 617 American Quality Corporation
next morning
Huo Jianhuang, who had taken an early flight from San Francisco, was sitting with Yang Chen in the restaurant of Caesar Palace Hotel, eating breakfast and talking.
"Apple, Walmart, Mobil Oil, IBM, General Electric, Chevron Energy, Procter & Gamble, Coca-Cola, Pepsi, Merck Pharmaceuticals, DuPont, Wells Fargo, ****, Goldman Sachs, Bank of America...
These companies must insist on acquisition. Once the shares are acquired, they should be held for a long time. No matter how the price changes, they can only get in but not out.
In addition to the other related companies I selected, you can take another look and invest in some potential companies as backup options."
“The investment scope mainly focuses on technology, telecommunications, medicine, energy, retail, and finance.
Especially for technology, when you are in Silicon Valley, remember to help me set up an angel investment company. Its main business is to make initial investments in technological innovation.
Especially those students who have just come out of school or have dropped out to engage in scientific and technological innovation. As long as they have real ability, technology, and can make things, and are not just cheating money, we will give them whatever they need.
Don't think about controlling them, angel investment, we are only responsible for investing money and do not participate in any company management."
"The money spent investing in a listed company would be better invested in a hundred or a thousand college students. As long as one of them succeeds, the reward will be a thousand times..."
As a future generation, Yang Chen clearly knows that the technology Internet is definitely the industry with the smallest investment and the highest return in history.
Since the early 1980s, the U.S. technology innovation industry has gone through a period of crazy growth for twenty years, during which countless technology companies have flourished, and there are many companies that can go public by programming just a few pieces of software.
These are all money, and angel investment only costs a small amount of money. With a small investment and a big return, it is definitely an excellent opportunity to harvest leeks.
Although it is not clear why Yang Chen values the technological innovation industry so much, one good thing about Huo Jianhuang is that he knows how to do things and knows how to do things well according to the instructions given above.
Huo Jianheng is that kind of very professional professional manager. No matter where you throw him, whether he has a foundation or not, he can get what you want.
There are thousands of listed companies in the United States, and there are certainly many that he has not heard of. Some listed companies are very low-key and very profitable behind the scenes. However, because of the low exposure rate of their industry, they rarely appear in the spotlight, so even if they are not on the list
It is also easy to be ignored.
For example, the pharmaceutical industry in the United States, due to its low exposure, could not remember any of it in his mind. This made him very confused, so he could only cast the net everywhere and catch them all.
Huo Jianheng: "Boss, what is the minimum shareholding size of these companies?"
Now that he has limited funds, he has dozens of companies, some of which have very high market values. If they are divided evenly, he won't be able to sell those shares at all.
Yang Chen didn't even think about it and said directly: "Every company I have identified must guarantee that it will hold 15% of the shares of its company."
"Remember, it should be at least 15%, no more, no less. The average shareholding should be around 20%, and try not to exceed 25%."
To be honest, in some companies, Yang Chen wants to own more shares so that he can see more future prospects, but the laws of the United States do not allow it.
The United States is the biggest pressurer on global financial openness, but they are not the model for financial openness. Regardless of nominal openness or actual openness, the United States is in the middle and lower reaches of developed countries.
Regarding foreign investment restrictions, various industries in the United States have certain standards. Even for offshore companies, the average limit is 25%. Once it is exceeded, it will be very troublesome.
Yang Chen doesn't like trouble, and even said that he hates trouble, but he hates it because he has a gun on his cell phone. If he doesn't want to be shot, he can only keep his job honestly.
"By the way, Coca-Cola and Wal-Mart, these two companies are at the forefront of acquisitions. If the acquired shares reach more than 15%, they can publicize their shares and occupy director seats in these two companies."
The Coca-Cola Company was founded as early as the 19th century and initially sold a bottle for five cents.
At the end of the 20th century, Coca-Cola began to invest heavily in advertising. In 1985, the U.S. space shuttle Challenger brought Coca-Cola into outer space and became the first carbonated drink consumed by humans in space.
This move made the Coca-Cola Company instantly famous and its drinks became more popular.
In the 21st century, according to statistics, more than 10,000 people around the world enjoy drinks produced by the Coca-Cola Company every second.
In 1980, stock investor Warren Buffett spent about US$100 million to buy 7% of Coca-Cola's shares and became a shareholder of Coca-Cola.
This investment was not optimistic by everyone at the beginning, but a few years later, Coca-Cola Company began to change its business strategy, withdraw funds, and invest in beverage production and advertising.
Soon, its influence grew, Coca-Cola's stock increased fivefold in an instant, and Buffett became famous.
The current market value of Coca-Cola is only over a billion US dollars, and it will increase several times in a few years. By then, Coca-Cola's market value will be higher than Apple's early peak market value after Jobs left Apple.
After 1985, no matter how other industries changed, Coca-Cola Company has always been among the top ten listed companies in the market value rankings of American companies.
Even with the explosion of Internet technology companies in the 21st century, it still cannot cover up the glory of Coca-Cola.
In later generations, the market value of Coca-Cola's shares reached more than 200 billion U.S. dollars, an increase of more than 100 times.
If you don't buy such a company early, it will only make others cheaper. To be precise, it will be people like Buffett, the god of cheap stocks.
As a descendant, Yang Chen knows better than anyone else how much influence Coca-Cola will have in the world in the future.
In the carbonated beverage industry, almost no one can compete with Coca-Cola. The Coca-Cola Company directly affects the attitude of young people around the world towards carbonated beverages.
‘Wait a minute, I seem to have missed something’
'For carbonated drinks, Coca-Cola seems to have rivals.'
Pepsi-Cola, which is only two words different from Coca-Cola and has been competing with Coca-Cola for generations to come, is somewhat similar to the e-commerce platforms Alibaba and JD.com in the carbonated beverage industry.
Although Coca-Cola is very powerful, Pepsi-Cola is not weak either. Even if it is weaker, it is still very limited.
This is also a big fish, and has greater potential than Coca-Cola. It is less famous, which shows that the current market value is not high...
