“Google, Apple, Yahoo, Cisco, Oracle, Tesla, and other top high-tech companies
have all stepped out of Silicon Valley.”
“To this day, their market value has increased tens of thousands of times, and
the incremental space is extremely huge!”
“Any stockholder, if he bought Apple’s stock 20 years ago, his current income
would be more than 300 or nearly 400 times.”
“But did you know that your mother invested in Apple with the venture
capital fund she set up before you were born!”
“At the time, Steve Jobs treated her as a guest, and when Apple’s market value

exchange for 10% of Apple’s shares!”
“Now, Apple’s market value is more than two trillion US dollars,
equivalent to more than 15 trillion yuan!”
“The 10% of your mother’s investment back then, after a round of dilution and reduction, there should now be
about 6%!”
“How much is it converted into RMB? It’s almost 900 billion!” “But your mother not only invested in Jobs’ Apple,
but she also invested in another company at Stanford, Larry Page.”
“Larry Page is the founder of Google. Google search, Google Maps, Android phone system, and the well-known
smart Go robot Alpha Dog some time ago are all products of this company.”
“Now the market value of this company is more than one trillion U.S. dollars, and your mother’s venture
capital fund holds more than 10% of the company’s shares!”

Back then, anyone who could take money to invest in Silicon Valley, close his eyes and invest casually, could also
invest in a lot of companies with unlimited potential.
The power of investment is that the upside is beyond imagination.
That year, Sun Zhengyi of Japan invested US$20 million in Alibaba, making a
full US$50 billion;
The South African Press Group in South Africa invested more than 30 million
U.S. dollars in Tencent Group, making a full $130 billion!
This is where the charm of investment lies. By seizing a potential stock,
you can achieve a net profit of several thousand times.
These are classic investment cases familiar to the Chinese people.
But Charlie really did not expect that his gentle, virtuous, and knowledgeable
mother would have such a brilliant investment history!
