Lao Ma has reason to be confident, because the current Meigou network is indeed inferior to Alibaba in terms of volume and scale.

Many people don't know that Alibaba has been listed in Xiangjiang since 2007. However, at that time, the theme of the listing was its Alibaba, which mainly engaged in foreign trade, and its market value was not high, and it never exceeded $3 billion.

Until last year, in 2011, Alibaba Group announced that it would privatize its listed company, spending $2.4 billion to complete the delisting from Hong Kong.

Now they are planning to list Alibaba Group as a whole!

This is not as simple as an Alibaba website, and the listed entities are based on Taobao and Tmall.

Thanks to the rapid expansion of Taobao and Tmall in the past two years, this time compared with Meigo.com, Lao Ma feels that his Alibaba Group's market value after listing is at least twice that of Meigo.com!

……

At this time in New York, the creation of NASDAQ history by the online listing of Meigou also caused a great sensation.

Facebook, which went public last month, has just reached a record market capitalization of 90 billion on the first day of listing, and many people at the time believed that no company would be able to break this record for at least three years.

And Zuckerberg, a young man, is also sought after by young people around the world, because his shares in Facebook have a market value of nearly $30 billion! The 28-year-old billionaire is simply synonymous with genius!

But I never expected that only a month had passed, and an e-commerce company in Huaguo broke this record.

Moreover, it has directly rushed to the market value of 100 billion US dollars!

Similarly, Wang Ye, the major shareholder of Meigou.com, is also a young man, and he is younger than Zuckerberg, only 25 years old this year, and his net worth has also reached 30 billion US dollars!

Although tens of billionaires are rare, there are still quite a few, but tens of billionaires at such a young age are really very rare.

And this year, two of them popped up at once, how could the media not be excited, this is big news!

"Peerless Twins!"

There have been many media outlets that have called Wang Ye and Zuckerberg representative figures of young entrepreneurs in the East and the West.

One of them was in the United States, but after dropping out of college, they started from scratch and created a company with a market value of $90 billion after going public, becoming a symbol of the "American dream".

The other one, who started from scratch in China, created a company with a market value of $100 billion in just two years! It has become a symbol of the "rise of the great powers of the East."

Such two figures, who were bright for a while, were compared by countless media.

Some people think Zuckerberg is better because his Facebook connects billions of people around the world and changes the habits of many people. And Wang Ye's Meigou network has only been able to develop so quickly by relying on the huge market in China.

Similarly, there are many people who think that Wang Ye is better, and Huaguo is a relatively backward country, and the business atmosphere is far less than that of the United States. But in that environment, Wang Ye only took two years to create and lead such a company, to the point where it is now great, isn't that good enough?

A reporter went to interview Zuckerberg.

"Mr. Zuckerberg, on the first day of its online listing, Meigou reached a market value of $100 billion, exceeding the market value of Facebook's listing last month. And its founder, Mr. Wang Ye, is also 25 years old and has a net worth of 30 billion US dollars. What do you think about this? ”

No one can let Zuckerberg be a genius, but geniuses are often confident to the point of pride.

Although Zuckerberg has a gentle personality and is very kind on the outside, he is still very unruly on the inside.

Facebook is his pride, and of course, the development of Facebook is enough to make him proud, especially last month's IPO, which also made Zuckerberg famous and became a household name in the world, and now is the time for him to be complacent.

But who knows, a Chinese company suddenly appeared and stole all the limelight from Facebook and Zuckerberg, which made him very depressed.

"Who is he? I don't know. Zuckerberg said casually.

Then he looked at the reporter's surprised expression, laughed, and explained: "Just kidding, of course I know about Meigo.com." For Meigo.com to achieve such a high market value, I would like to congratulate Wang Ye. ”

"In addition, although Meigou and Facebook are both Internet companies, I have to say that social networking is truly irreplaceable, like e-commerce platforms, which may be replaced by rising stars at any time. ”

When the reporter heard this, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked: "Can it be considered that you are not optimistic about the future development of Meigou.com, or do you think that the current market value of Meigo.com is overestimated?"

Zuckerberg shrugged his shoulders: "If you want to understand it that way, that's right! I always think that Meigo.com is just an e-commerce website that sells cosmetics, if you think about it, even if women all over China buy cosmetics from Meigo.com, can it reach $100 billion in sales a year? Obviously, this valuation is a bit large." ”

This is Zuckerberg's true thoughts, and he also said it bluntly, a person with a technical background is really not tactful enough, and he was slightly "seduced" by a reporter to say such a thing.

The Wall Street Journal reporter was like a treasure, and when he returned, he typed out an article with his fingers on the keyboard.

"The market value of 100 billion yuan on Meigo.com is just a beautiful bubble?"

In the article, he described the interview with Zuckerberg in detail and quoted Zuckerberg's quote.

"Even if all the women in China buy all the cosmetics of Meigo.com, can its annual sales reach 100 billion US dollars?"

"Therefore, it can be seen that the market value of Meigo.com has seriously exceeded its true value, this is a hype, investors who are dazzled by the Chinese, please open your eyes, and then take a closer look at the financial statements of Meigo.com, is it really worth 100 billion US dollars?!"

This report appeared in the newspaper the next day, causing an uproar in the investment circle.

At present, the media is divided into two factions, one is to advocate Meigou.com, believing that backed by the huge market of China, the future development of Meigo.com is unlimited.

On the other hand, it is obvious that they are looking at the decline of the United States, thinking that it is not worth 100 billion in market value at all, which is a big scam!

There are complex factors behind this.

Amazon has suffered huge losses year after year, but it still has a market value of $150 billion, and few people have jumped out to say that Amazon is a scam.

Now the accusation of Meigo.com is obviously that some people do not want to see Huaguo's enterprises achieve such great achievements.

And those who defend Meigo.com are, of course, vested interests.

For example, Citibank, Sequoia Capital, IDG, Berkshire, etc., also have deep roots and extensive contacts in the United States.

And they, in the process of listing the Meigou network, have made huge profits, and naturally hope to set up a model for the Meigou network.

Seeing the controversy in the newspaper, several shareholders and senior management team of Meigou smacked their tongues, and everyone gathered in Wang Ye's suite to discuss the matter.

"This Lao Mei is really idle, what's wrong with the high market value of our company's listing, and I don't owe them money, and now I say it as if we are liars. Li Youlun said depressedly.

"Haha, how much praise you can accept, how much slander you have to bear, just get used to it, and now the limelight of Meigou is too strong. Zhou Da was obviously used to seeing this kind of scene, and said disapprerovingly.

He turned his head to look at Wang Ye again: "But Wang Dong, I still feel like I'm in a dream, is Meigou really worth 100 billion US dollars?"

Hearing this question, everyone turned their heads to look at Wang Ye.

Yes, everyone is really like a dream these days, I originally thought that the stock price of Meigou could reach fifty or sixty US dollars, and the market value could reach 60 billion is already very exaggerated.

But after a round of roadshows, the stock price was inexplicably pushed to hundreds of dollars, and the company's market value was as high as 120 billion US dollars!

Even these executives and shareholders within the company felt incredulous.

"Hehe, what is the market value of the company, we don't count this question, but it is decided by investors. Perhaps, the current Meigou is not worth more than 100 billion, but a year later, three years later, maybe the market value of Meigou will be far more than 120 billion. Wang Ye explained with a smile.

He is well aware of the current situation.

Why the stock price of Meigou can reach this height on the first day of online listing is the result of the joint efforts of many parties.

First of all, Meigo.com has excellent results, and its high profit margin is extremely rare in the Internet industry.

In addition, it is the momentum before the listing, and the great help of allies.

Wang Ye first made an off-stage transaction with Warren Buffett, in exchange for Buffett's personal appearance. This effect is extremely obvious, and it is estimated that a considerable number of investors are rushing to buy Meigou shares in the name of Buffett.

In addition, these partners selected by Wang Ye in the early financing process, Sequoia Capital, IDG, and Temasek!

These capitals obviously have great energy and influence, and as shareholders, they have certainly contributed a lot to the online listing of Meigou.

However, Wang Ye also has to admit that the market value of 120 billion does have a certain amount of moisture. But so what, in this listing, several major shareholders did not cash out.

According to Nasdaq practice, when a company goes public, several major shareholders will take the opportunity to cash out a part of the shares, that is, in addition to the newly issued shares, shareholders will also take out a part of their own shares for sale.

However, this time, Wang Ye took the lead in stating that when the company was listed, he would not take out a single share to cash out! The other major shareholders also immediately said that they would not cash out.

In other words, several major shareholders of Meigou firmly believe that Meigou will have better performance in the future, and the stock price should be higher.
