Chapter 1043: Epoch-Making Product

By this year, or 2006 more precisely, Apple's stock price had already risen significantly thanks to the ongoing success of its music shop and the continued strong sales of the IPOD...

Originally, Wang Ye had bought all of the 160 million newly issued shares of Apple at $5 per share, owning a sixteen percent stake in the company and becoming the largest shareholder!

Now, the stock price of Apple had risen to over $160!

Just with this investment alone, Wang Ye had already made more than $25 billion!

Of course, cashing out such a large amount of shares and exiting the market would be extremely difficult; if Wang Ye were to dump all those Apple shares onto the market, it would trigger a rapid decline, significantly devaluing the stock.

After all, as the company's biggest shareholder, if even he cashed out and ran for the hills, other investors would certainly feel the pressure and scramble to cash out as well.

But only Wang Ye knew that this was just the beginning!
