2622 [Sensation]
Because the release of the third generation of the Apocalypse Mobile was successful, it not only caused a huge response in the technology industry, but also was widely popular among consumers, which led to the stock price of Tianxia Technology to rise against the trend.
The stock price of Tianxia Technology originally fell by nearly 30% due to the Hong Kong economic crisis, but now it has all risen back in an instant.
This scene also made the investors of Tianxia Technology very happy, feeling that they really had the vision and did not buy the wrong stock. Other investors stamped their feet and beat their chests, regretting that they did not buy Tianxia Technology earlier. Otherwise, they would be able to make a big profit now.
At this moment, Tianxia Technology issued an announcement. The announcement stated that 50% of Tianxia Technology's future profits will be used for scientific research and development, and there will be no dividends in the next twenty years.
The announcement of this news immediately caused a sensation in Hong Kong and around the world.
In addition to Hong Kong investors, many investors of Tianxia Technology also have a large number of investment institutions. They all have a fancy to the prospects of Tianxia Technology and invest in its stocks, hoping to get a free ride and make a fortune.
And Tianxia Technology did not disappoint them, and its annual profit exceeded US$20 billion. In addition to part of it for scientific research and development, nearly a quarter of it is used for shareholder dividends.
Like Xiatian, the Wang brothers and some major shareholders of institutions can receive huge dividends of more than one billion or even tens of millions of dollars every year. This is also the reason why the stock price of Tianxia Technology has always been very strong.
But now Tianxia Technology has announced that it will not be dividends within 20 years, which makes it difficult for investors to accept. If they do not share dividends for 20 years, they will not get any profit unless they sell their stocks. Because even if the stock price rises, it is just a number on paper, which is far less real than real dividends for real money and silver stocks.
Moreover, there will be no dividends for 20 years. Based on the current profit estimate of Tianxia Technology, shareholders of all sizes are expected to receive more than 80 billion US dollars in dividends. This is not a small amount.
For Xia, rich people like the Wang brothers and the actual controllers of the company, it doesn’t matter whether they don’t pay dividends. For summer, there is money, more than one billion US dollars a year, but for him, it’s just a rabbit fighting on New Year’s Eve. If it’s it, it’s the New Year, and if it’s not, it’s the New Year.
As senior executives of the company, many of their expenses can be responsible for by the company. For example, they can eat, drink, play, sit and lie down, etc., and they can be reimbursed in the name of the company.
Moreover, the two brothers’ annual bonus, plus option rewards, etc., will cost 40 to 50 million US dollars. Therefore, the company does not pay dividends, and it will not have much impact on them.
But for other investors, if Tianxia Technology does not pay dividends, their losses will be too great. Therefore, after the news was announced, Tianxia Technology investors protested, demanding that the annual dividend be restored. Some people even complained to the Hong Kong Securities Regulatory Commission, hoping that it could intervene in the matter.
...
However, it is not a sin to not distribute dividends for listed companies' profits. Many listed companies in Hong Kong do not distribute dividends in stocks, such as the scammers mentioned earlier, who have not distributed dividends for decades, and they still issue new shares to deceive shareholders' money.
In addition, many Midea companies do not distribute dividends. For example, the famous Apple has not distributed dividends for 17 consecutive years since 1995.
Google, Facebook, Microsoft, etc. also do not distribute dividends. Even the companies that distribute dividends to shareholders in the United States are only 20%. In other words, 80% of the companies will not distribute dividends to shareholders. Thirty-six% of listed companies in the British stock market do not distribute dividends.
Therefore, although the Hong Kong Securities Regulatory Commission has received complaints from investors, they have no way to force dividends in the face of the summer when they refuse to pay dividends.
This made investors naturally angry. In order to give summer colors, many investors chose to sell Tianxia Technology's stocks, which had finally risen, fell down again, and the market value of more than 30 billion US dollars evaporated within two days, which can be said to be a heavy loss.
But in the face of this loss, Xia Tian was not afraid at all.
The evaporation of the market value of Tianxia Technology is indeed a loss, but it is just a number. The changes in virtual assets are actually nothing great.
Even if the market value of Tianxia Technology falls to only one dollar, it will have little impact on Xia Tian’s interests. Because it is the actual controller of the company and controls all the company’s assets. These assets are real money and the most valuable ones.
So the stock price will fall as soon as it falls. Xia Tian just took advantage of the decline in the stock price and took the opportunity to absorb Tianxia Technology's stocks at a low price and maintain its position as the controlling major shareholder.
And because the market value of Tianxia Technology is now far lower than that of actual assets, the more you buy stocks in the summer, the more you make money.
...
What shocked the technology world was that Tianxia Technology actually wanted to invest 50% of its profits into research and development, which is really a very amazing number.
Generally speaking, the investment in R&D by ordinary technology companies every year only accounts for about 10% of the company's profits. Some companies even do not even have 5% of the R&D expenses. Even companies like Intel, Amd, and Microsoft account for no more than 20%.
But now, Tianxia Technology has to invest 50% of its profits into R&D. Not to mention the amount of funds, the proportion alone is very amazing.
What's more, Tianxia Technology is not a small company, with annual profits of more than 20 billion US dollars. In this way, it means that 10 billion US dollars are invested in R&D, which is really not a small amount in the 1990s. You know, in 16, Intel and Microsoft's investment in technology R&D was only 10 billion US dollars.
Although in the field of scientific research, it is not just an investment or a return. It is very likely that a large amount of money will be invested, but in the end it will fail. However, investing more money will undoubtedly increase the chance of success.
The reason why technology companies such as Intel, Microsoft, Amd, and Samsung have been in the lead for a long time is that they have been investing heavily in technological research and development for decades, and have accumulated so much experience.
Now, Tianxia Technology is already an amazing company in the technology industry. Systems, chips, motherboards, memory, LCDs, software... are all leading the way in the international market, which makes many companies feel pressured.
Nowadays, if you invest more than 10 billion US dollars a year, the technological advantages of Tianxia Technology will undoubtedly be greatly enhanced. In this way, it will be even more difficult for other companies to surpass them.
Therefore, after hearing this news, many competing companies looked dark, and even Microsoft's Bill Gates's face was not very good-looking.
