Chapter 289: Limei wants to do business
On the first Monday of March, Computer Park went public on the Nasdaq market in New York at an issue price of $30 per share. Although the listing underwriting team led by Bank of Merrill Lynch expressed strong dissatisfaction with the revision of the listing plan of the computer park, under Li Xuan's strong insistence, the financiers of the investment bank still chose to back down and compromise.
After all, their issuance fees are linked to the total amount of funds raised, and the more funds raised by listed companies, the higher the issuance fees they can share. As for those investors who are ready to subscribe for new shares, they naturally have no confidence to complain when there is less meat and more wolves.
At 9:30 a.m., John Martin, CEO of Computer Park, rang the opening bell. But the first deal didn't happen until 10:21 a.m., and after a 51-minute matchmaking auction, Computer Parks' stock finally opened at $35.1, up 17 percent from the issue price. On the day of listing, the stock ended up closing at $36.6.
When the news came back to Hong Kong, everyone was already starting to be a little numb. On the day of its listing, the market value of Computer Park has exceeded 20 billion Hong Kong dollars in one fell swoop. If the computer park company is listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, it can be promoted to the top five companies in terms of market capitalization in an instant. Compared with other Oriental companies such as Aikang Company, Oriental Games, and Oriental Research Institute, the reputation of the computer park company among Hong Kong citizens is not very loud.
Everyone can only marvel that "God of Wealth Lee" is worthy of being the reincarnation of the God of Wealth, compared with the Hong Kong stock market, which has fallen all over the country this year, these companies under the Oriental Group are undoubtedly a cornucopia. It is a pity that Li Xuan has no intention of listing them in Hong Kong at all, and some critical opinion articles have appeared in Hong Kong newspapers for this reason. thinks that Li Xuan would rather leave all the money to foreigners to earn than give Hong Kong people the opportunity to share dividends.
For these barking dog sounds. Li Xuan naturally didn't bother to pay attention to it. There is also an interesting news around the listing of the computer park company. That's among the employees of the Oriental Group in Hong Kong. Dozens of more millionaires have been added. These people were not employees of the computer park, but employees of other subsidiaries of the Oriental Company.
Among them, Oriental Games has the largest number of employees. There were 11 people, followed by the Institute of Oriental Studies with 7 people. As early as two years ago, Oriental Group began to implement an equity incentive plan. Oriental Games and Oriental Research Institute do not plan to go public in the near future, so the employees of these two companies have exchanged their respective shares for shares of listed companies.
Among them, most of the new millionaires of Oriental Games Company are the main creative members of the previous "Kung Fu" and "1942" game development teams. Both games have achieved hot sales since their launch, and the company has not been stingy, providing everyone with a variety of options according to the internal incentive rules.
A few of the more savvy people did not choose cash dividends. Instead, they chose to hold shares at an equal price. This time, taking advantage of the listing of the computer park company, they all converted their shares in Oriental Games into shares in the computer park, maximizing their interests.
According to the information disclosed by the computer park company, Du Wenqiang and Han Pengjun, executives of Oriental Group, are at the forefront of the company's individual shareholding rankings. After careful calculation, the attentive reporter found that according to their shareholdings in the two listed companies of Aikang and Computer Park, they are already billionaires just by converting these stock assets into Hong Kong dollars.
And two years ago, when Aikang was just going public. The assets of these people are only worth more than 10 million Hong Kong dollars. At that time, many Hong Kong newspapers called Han Peng, Du Wenqiang and others the emperor of migrant workers. But in just two years, "God of Wealth Li" became the richest man in the world, and his working emperors also became billionaires.
Follow the God of Wealth Li to eat meat! This has become the consensus of the whole Hong Kong people. With three months to go until this year's graduation season, the Eastern Group's recruitment plans for the new year are still being developed. Many Hong Kong fresh university graduates. I have already come to the company in person to inquire about this year's recruitment. Many of them are Hong Kong students studying at overseas universities, and their parents simply come to their homes to collect this year's recruitment announcements from the Oriental Group.
For the successful listing of the computer park, Li Xuan did not have too much excitement. Even the pomp and circumstance of the day of the listing. He didn't fly to the United States to see it for himself. It has been said that only when there is so much money that there is only a string of numbers left. You're a real rich man. And Li Xuan has obviously reached this realm a long time ago, and the outside world speculates how much wealth he has increased. These topics could no longer interest him at all.
Just when there was a new company with a market value of up to $3 billion in the NASDAQ market, Li Xuan quietly crossed the boundary river and crossed the border from the Luohu port into the deep-sea special zone.
After being reborn, Li Xuan did not come to the SAR many times. The last time was three years ago, when he and his friend Lin Yuhao came to invest in real estate development in the Special Economic Zone. The last time Li Xuan came to the Special Economic Zone, it was at the groundbreaking ceremony of the joint venture picture tube factory, and he was the guest of honor to give the new project a platform.
And Li Xuan's visit to the SAR once was not for the purpose of the Oriental Group's own business. Dongfang Electronics has no new projects to invest in the mainland recently, and even if there are, he rarely needs to be involved in person.
Li Xuan came for Li Zhi, and the so-called hero is sad to pass the beauty pass. After Lizhi returned to Hong Kong with him last time, the reporter quickly exposed the underground affair between the two. At that time, Li Xuan was unbearable, and took his genuine wife Zhong Chuhong to Taiwan to show affection and avoid the limelight.
And Lizhi was also chased and intercepted by reporters. This society is not fair to men and women. A super-rich man like Li Xuan was exposed to stealing outside, and public opinion in society said that he was young and romantic. Although there are many voices of condemnation, everyone is more envious, jealous and hateful. And the pressure on Lizhi is much greater, and the hats of the fox spirit and the third party naturally can't run away.
So Lizhi simply hid back in the mainland, out of sight and out of mind. Li Xuan didn't want her to return to Huhai, so she bought a villa in the Shenhai Special Zone and settled down. Lizhi is not a woman who is willing to be lonely, she doesn't want to be a canary for the rest of her life.
And Li Xuan couldn't give Lizhi a name, but he was very generous in terms of food and clothing. Lizhi has millions of pocket money every month, and she is not a woman who spends money lavishly. Although after following Li Xuan, with the improvement of taste, the monthly expenses are not small, but he can still save a lot of money.
After Li Zhi checked her account, she found that the pocket money that Li Xuan gave her every month was as high as 30 million Hong Kong dollars after slowly accumulating it. So her unwilling heart began to stir, wanting to make a splash in the business world. Li Xuan did not object to Li Zhi's idea. He also hopes that his women can have something to do, so as not to put all their energy on fighting pets at home.
But in Li Xuan's memory in another life, Lizhi's level of doing business was really not very good. In the early 90s, she invested in real estate in the mainland and suffered huge losses, so much so that Li Lianjie could only sign a "deed of sale" with Yongsheng Film Company in order to help his wife repay her debts.
Although, Lizhi's current tens of millions of funds are just a drop in the bucket for Li Xuan, even if they are all lost, it doesn't matter at all. But Li Xuan's heart for this matter is more concerned than the billion-dollar listing action in the computer park, which can be described as a typical love for the country and more for beauty!
"I've been driving for a few hours, are you tired? I made an appointment with Secretary Liang and Mayor Wu to have dinner together tonight!" Li Zhi carefully took off his coat for Li Xuan and hung it on the hanger.
"Serve my Limeiren, no matter how hard and tired you are, your heart is sweet!" Li Xuan sat on the sofa, then gently pulled Li Zhi and hugged her into his arms.
"Hmph, who knows how much sincerity you have in these ecstasy soups!" Li Zhi glanced at him. But her two beautiful eyebrows bent, and the smile that immediately appeared at the corners of her eyes, couldn't hide the good mood in her heart.
"I've come to the Special Administrative Region on a special basis, and it's not enough to show my sincerity! If your husband and I go to Beijing, then at least we have to come forward to receive you at the level of a national leader!" you chose to pinch Lizhi's delicate face, and said with a pretended dissatisfaction.
Doing business is not just about having money, you also need to have good projects. And Li Xuan's test project for Li Zhixuan this time is a wireless pager. Not long ago, Hong Kong just added a new company called Beauty Information Technology.
The Hong Kong Beautiful Information Technology Company and the Shenhai City Telecommunications Development Company are preparing to establish a joint venture to establish a deep-sea wireless computer paging company to pilot the operation of the first wireless analog paging station in China -- 126 units. The joint venture project has been approved by the relevant authorities.
Shenhai Telecommunications Development Co., Ltd. is a wholly-owned enterprise of Shenhai Telecommunications Bureau. Wireless paging stations belong to the category of the communication industry, and the state actually controls this field very strictly. The reason why Lizhi, a female streamer who has just entered the business sea, was able to reach a cooperation with the Shenhai Municipal Telecommunications Bureau was because of the support of Li Xuan's golden signboard.
Now that the cooperation agreement between the two sides has been approved, it is time for the final signing ceremony. Li Xuan then came over in person to express his gratitude to the leaders of the SAR Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government for their strong support. You must know that after more than three years of development, the current Special Economic Zone is no longer the dilapidated fishing village town of a few years ago, but a newly rising city.
In the past few years, the entire deep-sea special zone has been like a big construction site, and it has been building frantically 365 days a year. New high-rise buildings are rising from the ground, and more and more overseas investment is pouring in. The SAR Government has overcome the dilemma of being poor and blank at the beginning of its establishment, and its development is entering the fast lane. (To be continued......)
