Chapter 701: Going to the United States

Li Muwen said that her work would definitely surprise Wen Xiaoguang, but it was his father who was the first to be surprised.

Originally, I said it was good, I introduced Qiu Yingdong to my friends, and the most important daughter was supposed to come and changed her hexagram temporarily, and it was said that she went to the interview.

Wen Xiaoguang couldn't understand what kind of job a fresh graduate had found was more important than this, but Qiu Yingdong said that it was very good, the child didn't think about letting her father say hello or something, and he was very self-reliant.

Since his family thinks it's good, he doesn't care, he is going to the United States after putting his mind at ease, JD.com has started a roadshow in mid-May, unlike other listed companies, they did not follow the traditional Road Show (roadshow) to run Europe, Singapore, Hong Kong and finally to the United States, but only in Hong Kong and the United States respectively met investors.

Then he went to NASDAQ to be listed.

The NASDAQ and the NYSE are two stock exchanges, but they are essentially two companies that compete with each other, and the NASDAQ also has a CEO, and it is also a woman named Adina Friedman.

On the day of JD.com's listing, Wall Street was all JD.com's billboards, but in fact, the money to buy those billboards was not from JD.com, but from NASDAQ.

As a relatively high-ranking shareholder of JD.com, Weituo Wen Xiaoguang also has to participate more or less in the preparation for listing, not to mention that the issue price is set too low will hurt his interests.

There are countless funds and analysts who want to meet you.

Because Weituo will also be listed in the future, it doesn't hurt to understand some first.

On the plane to the United States, there were four or five of them in the first-class cabin, Wen Xiaoguang liked to be by the window, and Li Yidan sat next to him.

It takes more than ten hours to fly to the United States, in fact, it is still very tiring, and it is even more tiring to take economy class, and the waist can be broken, and the space and service in first class are better.

"Boss, if it were you, would you choose the NASDAQ or the NYSE?"

Wen Xiaoguang said honestly: "I have heard a lot about the listing, but I don't know much about it, and I don't know what criteria to choose. ”

"Then do you know how Lao Liu chosen?"

"Stop going around in circles, just tell me. ”

Li Yidan wanted him to guess, so it would be interesting, "That's a simple and smart person, the bells and whistles can't fool him, he will recognize one, and whichever one gives Jingdong more advertising money, he will choose." ”

Wen Xiaoguang couldn't help but smile when he heard this, "Such a lofty thing...... I thought there would be an analyst who would give him a lot of reports. ”

"Listing is linked to wealth and success, and everything must have a special term, in fact, the roadshow is similar to a vegetable farmer carrying vegetables to the city, but it is just selling shares. ”

Wen Xiaoguang has been reading the report, "JD.com's roadshow is very successful, the fund is actively subscribed, they originally set the issue price of 16-18 US dollars, Barclays recommended 18 US dollars, but as far as the current roadshow situation is concerned, the original dozen shareholders will not be satisfied with this price." ”

"Then we ......"

Weituo is the leading shareholder with 9.8% of the shares.

"Of course we are not satisfied with the low price to take care of these funds, but we can't all take care of him. I contacted him when I got off the plane, and I can understand that the price has not risen much, but it can't be long. ”

Although Lao Liu is also very strong, he can't stop protecting his interests because he is strong.

It is very knowledgeable whether the issue price is set high or low.

To put it simply, Weituo originally held shares in JD.com, and now it may have to take out a part of it as a circulating share, so it is to sell something, and the seller has any hope of selling it at a low price?

The funds you are subscribing to now want to be cheaper. It was bought for $18, and when it was actually listed for $30, it earned $12 a share.

Therefore, the setting is too high, the foundation frowns, which compresses their profit margins, and the original shareholders, including Lao Liu, will also feel a loss.

Of course, there is also the stock itself, that is, whether it will rise in the end, and if it falls below the issue price on the first day, it is better not to be listed.

All parties have interests involved.

Investment banks want to be a little lower because they are underwriters and need to sell the shares, and they also subscribe for a portion of the shares.

In fact, there is a game between the original shareholders, including the founding team and the investment bank.

At that time, Baidu's price was set low, with an issue price of $27 and an opening price of $66, closing at $122.5.

But who is the happiest? It must be the subscribed fund, which has risen by 350%.

Wen Xiaoguang doesn't remember what the performance was after JD.com's listing, but it must have risen, so it shouldn't be a big problem to float the price of $18 up and another $2 or two.

"This time we went to the United States, we also had to visit the management teams of companies such as Uber and airbnb, which I basically didn't pay much attention to after investing before. ”

Li Yidan nodded, "That's no problem, although there are many wolves in the American business community, they still have basic respect for strong shareholders and create value for shareholders." ”

"I've been thinking a lot lately, don't keep your money there and idle, you will make money and you will spend money, it's not interesting to be paper money, you have to invest in some real assets. ”

That bunch of numbers getting bigger and bigger no longer gave him any feeling.

Money is money when it is spent, and paper is not spent if it is not spent.

Li Yidan also knows Wen Xiaoguang better, "In fact, mainland tycoons have always preferred to buy luxury houses in Hong Kong, and you can also see if you like them." ”

"Hong Kong?"

Wen Xiaoguang smiled and said nothing, let's talk about it after I go later, I haven't been there yet.

"Or the Gold Coast of Sydney," Li Yidan looked at him as he didn't seem interested in the previous suggestion.

Wen Xiaoguang still shook his head, "You say, how about buying a yacht?"

"That's expensive. Just buying it costs hundreds of millions, and you have to maintain it and find someone to open it, even the average rich person will feel distressed to spend money quickly. ”

He didn't think of it suddenly, Li Yidan's eyes were aimed at the small advertising brochure on the plane, which happened to be a promotional photo of a luxury yacht, under the sunset, on the sea, it was indeed beautiful.

"What's so distressing, the Americans earn us money. ”

Li Yidan joked: "The money is indeed earned by Americans." But there are a bunch of little girls going around you, don't you challenge yourself by buying this one and putting it away?"

That is, let's talk about it, maybe I will really buy it, but when it really arrives, it will be half a year, and it will be a year.

Just as he was talking about the little girl, Wen Xiaoguang saw that a flight attendant had been staring at him for a long time, and she deliberately pretended to be shy, but now he wanted to find someone younger and see if what Qiu Yingdong said was true or false.

Li Yidan saw these details in his eyes, and scratched his head a little speechlessly, "Why is there a ...... here?" Boss, you're not easy. ”

"Forget it, the more you go to the United States, the more careful you have to be. ”

"Why?"

Why, because the guys who are doing the roadshow are a lesson from the past, of course they can take the girl away at the drinking party, but they don't know what will happen later.

"Actually, with you by my side, everyone else is eclipsed. ”

Li Yidan was stunned for a moment, her little mouth opened slightly, and her heart thumped when she said this, "I'm ...... I'm much older than you. ”

"I know, I'm kidding. ”

The woman instantly returned from the ambiguous world, she wanted to hit someone, what do you mean to flirt with?!

"I'm going to the bathroom. ”

Yesterday, I took my family to the hospital, because of backache, I also checked it myself, and the results found a slight protrusion of the lumbar disc, although I also have a place that is particularly prominent, but this protrusion is uncomfortable.
