I'm Kaka Kaka

Chapter 172 is too much 404, this chapter is abolished

Italy was still freezing cold in January, but Brazil was sunny, but Kaka didn't take advantage of the good time to enjoy the sun and the beach, but hurried to the United States.

On his business map, North America is the most important and the most important one.

Traditional industries, such as general electric, oil, insurance, media, and finance, have long been carve up. Not to mention outsiders like Kaka, it is extremely difficult for even those real capitalists to grab food from other people's bowls.

In contrast, some emerging industries that have not received sufficient attention are real opportunities, especially the network industry.

A magical industry with a degree of freedom far beyond any circle, which has created countless wealth myths.

Even if you are not proficient and understand the Internet, you should know that this is an industry that can change the world in the future. Even the most conservative traditional groups have to make changes to adapt to this industry either actively or passively.

Failure to change means death.

Kaka does not have the ambition to become the richest man in a certain country. He just wants to use his accumulated wealth and advanced vision in exchange for a little bit of cake in this upsurge, to achieve financial freedom, and to the extent that private jets and luxury yachts can be used as toys.

And now, the opportunity has come.

In 2001, technology stocks unexpectedly fell across the board. After September 9.11, the U.S. stock market fell even more severely. In 2002, the main stock indexes tried to rise several times, but ultimately fell in vain.

This year is the best time to enter the market, and the first choice is naturally Apple.

A few years ago, Apple was in a deep quagmire, and many people wanted to get out. After Steve Jobs returned to Apple, he not only accepted the investment from Bill Gates, but also actively raised funds from outside.

If Kaka remembers correctly, in 2003 Apple's stock price fell from $36 to $12 per share, and then Jobs, the man who saved Apple, sold 5500 million shares that would later be worth tens of billions of dollars.

The lowest plummeted to around $7 per share.

$7 apples, can you imagine?

In 2003, Apple’s most important product was the iPod. Only people who bought Apple MAC computers could use this MP3 player. Therefore, iPod only accounted for about 3% of computer users in this market. However, Apple was developing another version of iPod at that time, which was compatible with ordinary PC computers. After its launch, users accounted for 97% of the computer market in one fell swoop.

Because of this epoch-making product, Apple’s stock will at least double next year at the latest, and then this company will gradually become a technology giant known to the world. Since the low point in 2003, the stock has risen to more than 200 US dollars.

Steve Jobs is an absolute genius. Apart from himself, he obviously doesn't want anyone to become big at Apple, but Kaka doesn't have the unrealistic idea of ​​controlling an Internet group, and he doesn't think he can do better than Jobs.

Old Joe eats meat, he drinks soup, it's as simple as that.

Therefore, Apple is definitely the best investment target right now. Almost all of Kaka's income during this period has been invested in Apple.

But in this regard, he has been standing behind the scenes. Silva is in charge of the operation. This guy is a veteran of Wall Street. He is obviously more familiar with various routines than Kaka. Although he doesn't know why Kaka is so optimistic about such a technology company that seems to be half-dead, he still bought a lot of Apple shares under the insistence of BOSS.

But Kaka went to the United States not for Apple, but for Facebook.

At the beginning, he wanted to find Zuckerberg to invest, but after an investigation, he discovered that the so-called Facebook was not technically difficult.

The important thing is to be the first person to eat crabs, and then there is business planning.

In this case, why not do it yourself...

Although he knows the general development history of Facebook, and also knows a lot of functional ideas that will be popular all over the Internet in the future, Kaka still understands the reason for going too fast and making nonsense, so he didn't make much fanfare, but like the development of Facebook in the previous life, he developed it in a low-key way, developed in a low-key way, and started from the campus route.

The founder of Facebook is Mark Zuckerberg, a student of Harvard University. Facebook also started from Harvard at first, and then the scope of registration gradually expanded to other universities in the Boston area. Afterwards, famous schools such as MIT, Fords University, University of Rochester, New York University, Northwestern University and other famous schools offered their assistance one after another, turning this instant sharing website, which seemed to be very sparse in function and creativity in the future, into an Internet star enterprise in the United States.

However, Kaka did not choose Harvard this time, but Wharton Business School, not to avoid a collision with Zuckerberg, but because this is Silva's alma mater, and with the support of his contacts here, this road will undoubtedly go smoother.

Wharton is known as the birthplace of the modern MBA and is one of the eight famous Ivy League schools in the United States. Its influence is no worse than that of Harvard, and it is definitely qualified to be the birthplace of Facebook.

Just because of buying a large number of Apple stocks, Kaka's current funds are insufficient. Although the development of the website has almost been completed, a large amount of capital investment is still needed in the follow-up, which cannot be afforded by his salary in AC Milan.

Facebook at Harvard should have been launched around 2004, and Kaka only had a one-year advantage. If he can’t take advantage of this time to quickly occupy the market, he will face a strong challenge from Zuckerberg later.

Of course, the most important thing is that this is the country of the United States, and he is a Brazilian, so it is imperative to find a partner from the United States.

Silva's efficiency is top-notch, and he has already found a suitable candidate, but he needs to be the boss to personally interview and make a decision.

After Apple and Facebook are dealt with, Kaka's business empire is basically formed. There is no need to work hard in this area. For the rest of his life, he just needs to enjoy life and enjoy football.
