With Zhiwei Weibo's last update of its prospectus, its huge underwriting group has finally surfaced.

In a previously published prospectus, Zhiwei Weibo has appointed Morgan Stanley, Morgan-Chase & Co., Deutsche Bank, Credit Suisse, Goldman Sachs and Citigroup as its lead underwriters. According to the updated prospectus, Bank of China International, HSBC, Ruihui Bank, Pacific Crown Securities (Pacific-Crest), Royal Bank of Canada, Stifel & Co., BNP Paribas, Evercore, Raymond-James and Robinson Hanver ( Suntrust-Robinson-Humphrey) and 10 other companies have joined the underwriting program.

Judging from the list alone, the IPO of Zhiwei Weibo includes nearly half of the international first-line investment banks, and such a strong underwriting group makes people full of confidence in this IPO.

In addition to the underwriting group, other information was eventually completed, such as that Zhiwei Weibo will pay $2.4 million in legal fees to the law firm that advised the company on its listing.

At 18:45 on the evening of December 2, Bian Xuedao and Shen Fu arrived at the Hilton-Times-Square Hotel in New York, where the listing team stayed.

After the two arrived, it meant that all the people who participated in the next day's Zhiwei Weibo listing were in place, including Yan Hesheng, a professor at Eastern Sen University.

Yan Hesheng's invitation letter was sent on November 28, and he was able to come to the United States this time completely because of Shen Fu's light - in order to prevent Shen Fu from appearing in New York looking too "special", the cautious Bian Xuedao brought Yan Hesheng to be Shen Fu's companion.

It was a sound decision.

Shen Fu is the most popular star V on Zhiwei Weibo, Yan Hesheng is a very influential scholar V on Zhiwei Weibo, although there are many experts and scholars who are more influential than Yan Hesheng on Weibo, but don't forget that Yan Hesheng is the initiator of the "National Day of Mourning".

The rise of an initiative on Weibo to the will of the country is not only a manifestation of the strong influence of Zhiwei Weibo, but also Yan Hesheng's resume, which is fully qualified for Yan Hesheng to appear in New York.

Therefore, no matter who looks at it, it makes sense for Bian Xuedao to invite Shen Fu and Yan Hesheng to participate in the Weibo listing ceremony.

Of course, even if someone thinks that this matter is boring, he has to bear it, because the matter is obvious: who let Shen Fu sing with Bian Xuedao? Who let Yan Hesheng be Bian Xuedao's teacher?

Hilton-Times-Square.

Out of politeness, Bian Xuedao visited his teacher Yan Hesheng for the first time.

The executives in the team all knew that Yan Hesheng was the boss's teacher, so they specially arranged a corner-room with an excellent view for Yan Hesheng.

Hearing a knock on the door, Yan Hesheng came over and opened the door.

Seeing Bian Xuedao standing outside the door, Yan Hesheng said in surprise and surprise: "Come in, when did you arrive?"

Bian Xuedao said with a smile: "Just arrived." For the sake of the students, I asked you to come all the way to the United States, and I came to see you, the teacher. ”

Closing the door, Yan Hesheng beckoned Bian Xuedao to sit down, poured water for Bian Xuedao and said: "Hey, I borrowed your light, before boarding the plane in Songjiang, your senior mother and senior brother also instructed me to thank you when I see you, so that I can also have the opportunity to show my face on the NASDAQ." ”

Taking the water cup, Bian Xuedao said with a smile: "Teacher, you are now a well-known scholar, and you are not easy to invite. ”

Yan Hesheng sat down on the sofa, waved his hand and said, "If you say that again, your teacher's old face will be blushing." ”

After taking a sip of water, Bian Xuedao changed his words and asked, "I heard that the province and city have been holding you for meetings recently?"

Yan Hesheng subconsciously reached out and touched the cigarette case in his trouser pocket, and when he took out the cigarette case, he suddenly remembered that smoking was not allowed in the American hotel room, and put the cigarette box back in his trouser pocket, sighed and said: "For this matter, I have lost 6 pounds in the past month." ”

Bian Xuedao just asked casually, but he didn't expect to ask such an answer, he put down the water cup and asked, "Why?"

Yan Hesheng said with a sad face: "It's hard to say. ”

20 minutes later, Bian Xuedao knew why Yan Hesheng had lost weight.

The GDP growth rate of the three northern border provinces where Bac Giang province is located has been at the bottom of the country for two consecutive years, and the economy has suffered a "cliff-like decline".

For a time, there was talk of the "economic predicament in the north" on the Internet, and even remarks about "demonizing" the three northern provinces, followed by more and more people singing about the economy and prospects of the three northern provinces, and even having an impact on the local government's policy decisions.

In this context, the "2008 Northern Three Provinces Revitalization Forum" led by the Revitalization Department of the National Development and Reform Commission and jointly organized by the governments of the three northern provinces and the National Institute of Reform and Development was held in Songjiang City.

Before the start of the forum, the relevant departments of Bac Giang Province approached Yan Hesheng, a well-known economist in the province, and hoped that he could make suggestions and tell the truth about the shortcomings at the forum.

Outcome......

Yan Hesheng, who has been sleek all his life, made a serious mistake - to be honest.

At the forum, Yan Hesheng said: "State-owned enterprises in Bac Giang Province account for 56% of the entire national economy, and among the 56% of state-owned enterprises, central enterprises account for 56%. It can be said that compared with the whole country, the reform of state-owned enterprises in the three northern provinces is lagging behind, and the tasks that have been completed in the reform of state-owned enterprises in many parts of the country have not yet been completed in many state-owned enterprises in the three northern provinces. Therefore, I feel that if we want to revitalize the entire economy, we must first complete the tasks that should have been changed to state-owned enterprises in the past. ”

Yan Hesheng also said: "There is a saying on the Internet that 'investment is not enough in Shanhaiguan', which is a very terrible impression. There are two reasons for this: one is that the administrative efficiency is low, and the burden on the enterprise is heavy; the other is that the investment promotion is untrustworthy, and before the investment is introduced, people are regarded as ancestors, and after the investment is introduced, people are treated as grandchildren, and they always play JQK -- first bring you 'j' (hook) in, then tie you 'Q' (enclosure), and finally get rid of your 'k' (尅). ”

"Whether it's talent, capital, technology, or management, these things all follow investment and capital, and if the investment environment can't attract investment, these resources will flow out with capital. At present, the three northern provinces are in this kind of outflow situation, and the very serious outflow of capital, talent, and population has led to the loss of development potential, and they want to develop but lack vitality, and enter a vicious circle. ”

After listening to Yan Hesheng, Bian Xuedao said with relief: "There is nothing particularly out of line in these words, but they are just truths that are not very popular, why do you lose 6 pounds?"

Yan Hesheng shook his head in frustration: "I have been cautious all my life, and when I get old, I get carried away and capsize the boat." Hey, but I don't have any pursuits at my age, just waiting for death, it's your senior brother, who is still very naïve in his 30s. ”

Bian Xuedao said with a smile: "I think my senior brother is good, if you want to be naïve, I may be more naïve than him in some aspects." ”

Yan Hesheng Zhengse said: "Not everyone can be the one who rings the bell on the NASDAQ, you make everyone who knows you proud of you, you are amazing." ”

December 3, 2008, New York, sunny.

At 8:15 a.m., the vanguard of the Zhiwei Weibo listing team arrived at the NASDAQ exchange in Times Square.

At 9 o'clock in the morning, Bian Xuedao, a group of executives and invited guests came to the front of the exchange building and began to take a group photo. The background of the group photo is the NASDAQ Exchange Building, and on the electronic screen of the building is the logo and slogan of Zhiwei Weibo - "Focus on the Influence Era".

During the group photo, Shen Fu, who was dressed in a simple and generous white dress, stood next to Bian Xuedao, showing the beauty of grace and elegance, and became the heroine of the scene.

Among all the people who took a group photo, only Bian Xuedao wore a red tie.

The reason is that the Chinese stock market is red for the rise and the green for the fall, and the US stock market is just the opposite, the green is up and the red is down. Therefore, for fear that Bian Xuedao would be unhappy, no one dared to wear red to participate in the bell ringing ceremony.

Walking into the Exchange Building, the final bell ringing venue is a studio hall full of camera equipment.

At 9:53 a.m., Bob-Greifeld, CEO of Nasdaq, took the stage to give a welcome speech and briefly praise Zhiwei Weibo's extraordinary achievements in China.

Two minutes later, the bell ringer walked up to the stage and said into the microphone: "Many things are valuable, but there are still many things that cannot be measured by money, just like the pride and pride in our hearts at this moment." Here, NASDAQ, is not the beginning or the end, we still have a long way to go, and there is greater pride and pride ahead waiting for us to create. Here, I would like to thank each and every one of you, it is you who have created the glory of Zhiwei today, and I am proud of each and every one of you. Today belongs to every smart person, thank you!"

At 9:57, the senior management team and guests took the stage and stood on both sides of the road, ready to ring the bell.

At 9:58, music sounded in the NASDAQ exchange, everyone on the stage applauded and counted down tens of seconds, and as the time came, Bian Xuedao pressed the electronic bell button.

"Smack!"

There were two crisp sounds, and red colored paper fell from the top of his head.

Just over a minute later, pictures and news of Bian Xuedao ringing the bell appeared on the screen of the Reuters building across the street from the exchange.
