Chapter 2614
"Google, Apple, Yahoo, Cisco, Oracle, Te, and many other top high-techpanies emerged and established themselves, step by step, from Silicon Valley."
"Their market value has already increased tens of thousands of times, and their growth and incremental space are extremely huge!" 1
"If any stockholder bought Apple''s shares twenty years ago, he would have made a profit of more than three hundred or four hundred times."
"Did you know that your mother invested in Apple with the venture capital fund that she had set up even before you were born?!"
"At that time, Steve Jobs treated her as the most distinguished guest, and when Apple''s market value was only worth a few billion dors back then, she paid up hundreds of millions of dors in exchange for 10% of Apple''s shares!" 4
"Apple''s market value at the moment is currently worth more than two trillion US dors, and that is equivalent to more than fifteen trillion Oskia dors!"
"After many rounds of dilution and reduction, there is still about 6% left out of the 10% shares that your
mother had invested in Apple back then!" "How much would that be worth if it were to be converted into Oskia dors? It is worth almost nine hundred billion dors!"
"Also, your mother did not only invest in Steve Jobs'' Apple, but she also invested in Larry Page, who was her junior in Stanford University."
"Larry Page is the founder of Google. Google Search, Google Maps, the Android phone system, and the recently famousputer programming robot, AlphaGo, are all products of thispany." 2
"The current market value of thispany is worth more than one trillion US dors. Your mother''s venture capital funds in thispany amount to more than 10% of thepany''s shares!"
"So, the ie that your mother has received from simply investing in these twopanies alone has already far exceeded the sum of the total assets of the Wade family. If we were to include all of the
investment ie from all ocel
mother''s venture capital fun@back then, even abination of the Schulz family''s assets and the Wade family''s assets would not be able topete against your mother''s assets at all, let alone the entire Acker family''s assets." 4
Charlie was stunned and dumbfounded when he heard this.
Many people knew or would have heard of the miracle of Silicon Valley back then. Charlie was no exception.
Numerous high-techpanies
were born here, and this included
manypanies with a market
value of more than tens of billions of US dors. There are also severalpanies with a market value worth more than one hundred billion dors. In fact, there were even two or threepanies that were worth more than one trillion dors. 6
Back then, anyone who had the money to invest in Silicon Valley would be able to invest in a
company with unlimited potential even if he were to simply close his eyes and randomly invest in any one of thosepanies. Content

The power and the greatest thing about investing was that there was way too much room for growth that far exceeded anyone''s imagination. 3
Back then, Masayoshi Son from Japan had invested twenty million US dors in Alibaba, and he had made fifty billion US dors in total. South Africa Press Inc. from South Africa had invested more than thirty million US dors in Tencent Group, and they had made a total of one hundred and thirty billion US dors!
This was where the charm of making investmentsy. By seizing a potential stock, you would be able to achieve a profit worth several thousand times more than your original investment.
These were all ssic investment cases that the Oskians were familiar with.
However, Charlie would not have expected that his gentle, virtuous, and cultivated mother would actually have such a brilliant investment history!
