At 6 a.m., it was overcast.

Lin Feng opened his eyes, Ye Weiyu curled up in his arms was still asleep, her soft snort had a kind of magic that made Lin Feng feel calm.

He lowered his head and kissed Ye Weiyu's forehead.

Ye Weiyu let out a soft murmur, raised her head slightly as if she had woken up from a dream, and naturally, Lin Feng's kiss fell on her lips.

After a hot kiss for a moment, the lips parted.

"Awake?" Seeing that the star's eyes opened slightly, Lin Feng smiled.

"Well, I woke up with a kiss from you...... What time is it?"

Lin Feng turned around, picked up the mobile phone on the bedside and glanced at it: "It's 6 o'clock." ”

"Oh, we're going to get up, it's a big day. Ye Weiyu suddenly came to her senses, she sat up, the silk quilt slipped off, and in the hazy light, the graceful and delicate curves on her body made Lin Feng's eyes jump.

Although they have been together for many years, they are old husbands and wives, and they have given birth, Ye Weiyu's body still obsesses him.

For a moment, he wanted to pull Ye Weiyu back into his arms and do a morning exercise wantonly......

However, today is indeed a big day, it will be a very busy day, it is estimated that at this time, many people are already busy and preparing, and a large number of guests are coming, and there is indeed no time for the two to warm up and be affectionate.

Sighing, Lin Feng also sat up, leaned over and kissed Ye Weiyu on the cheek, "Wife, you are so beautiful!"

"Oops, early morning...... , Look at my hair is messy, I haven't washed my face yet, what's beautiful......" Ye Wei said angrily, but she was happy in her heart.

…………

After washing, Lin Feng put on the suit that Ye Weiyu carefully prepared for him, a set of dark blue striped three-piece suit, although he did not wear a tie, he was a little chic and uninhibited, but he had not worn such a formal suit for a long time, and he was still very handsome.

Ye Weiyu wore a similar outfit to when Menglong was listed, a white short-sleeved dress, gold high heels, but a small red coat, adding a bit of joy, she felt that this outfit could bring good luck...... Since coming into contact with Su Minfeng, Ye Zi has obviously believed a lot in feng shui and the like.

The two came to the restaurant for breakfast.

Although it was very early, there were already many people in the restaurant, including the listing team, and they still needed to check the listing process today.

There are also some guests, relatives and friends who came from China, and everyone got up early and prepared to take pictures outside the New York Stock Exchange.

After Lin Feng and Ye Weiyu walked into the restaurant, they immediately became the focus of everyone, greeting all the way to the seats, Ye Weiyu went to get something to eat, and Lin Feng listened to the team's report on today's work arrangements.

Lin Feng saw that everyone was a little nervous on their faces, he clapped his hands and said with a smile: "I know everyone is very excited and nervous, today is indeed a very exciting day, we are all waiting for this day to come, we have done everything we can!so, take easy!enjoy it!"

Li Dong and the others all laughed, and although they said this, they were still excited.

The staff of the investment bank began to introduce the situation: "Gentlemen, this time the New York Stock Exchange has welcomed Alibaba on a very large scale, last night the New York Stock Exchange has changed the popular blue and white logo overnight, and the front of the building not only hung the popular display curtain, but also with the Chinese and American flags and the popular logo flag. ”

In addition to these three screens, the promotional screens inside and outside the trading floor of the New York Stock Exchange will also play popular advertisements. In addition, the trading desk in the lobby of the New York Stock Exchange is also pasted with blue and white fashion patterns. In the past, this kind of treatment was only occasionally seen when major IPOs were underway!"

"There are about 300 journalists out there, and they're probably yelling and yelling, and it's all part of it all," the investment banker continued...... Ringing the opening bell is very exciting and will take a long time...... Richard will ring the bell, and then, good luck to us!"

"This is just the beginning, we will be greeted by a feast!"

…………

The listing of Fengxing Group has caused a great shock and influence all over the world, and the bigwigs in the "circle of friends" that Lin Feng has interacted with over the years have also been invited to watch the ceremony.

In China, there are Yang Yuanqing, Niu Gensheng, Guo Guangchang and other students from the CEO class; partners of Fengxing Company, such as Zhao Qinghuan, vice president of China Mobile, Li Gang, vice president of China Unicom Group, and Ouyang Changlin of Xiangnan Radio and Television; as well as the founders of some companies invested by Fengxing, such as Wang Zhongjun of Huayi Brothers, Wang Wei of Tudou.com, Yao Jinbo of 58.com, and Wang Xiaochuan of Sogou;

In addition, the second generation of wealthy people such as Li Zekai and Guo Konghua in Hong Kong also came to cheer for Lin Feng.

There are also a lot of people from the United States, such as Google's Larry Page, Facebook's Xiaozai, Youtube's Chen Shijun, Gopro's Nick, etc.

In particular, the arrival of Larry Page has made the media even more excited, knowing that if Google has any partnership with Fengxing, it will be big news!

In fact, Larry was indeed invited by Lin Feng by phone in person, and his purpose was, of course, to get closer to each other and pave the way for future cooperation with the Android operating system.

After breakfast, everyone walked to the front of the New York Stock Exchange, one to prepare in advance, and the other to take a group photo at the entrance of the New York Stock Exchange. Because if it's too late, the companies on Wall Street are all working, there are too many people coming and going, and there are many onlookers, so it's inconvenient to take pictures.

At this time, the sky was not yet bright, and the street lights were not extinguished.

There are already many reporters waiting here early, and in addition to taking pictures, these media will also take the opportunity to interview some guests and ask them to talk about their thoughts on the popular listing.

Lin Feng shook hands, greeted and took pictures with all the guests with a smile on his face.

After taking a group photo with all the company's senior management teams, he and Li Dong stood aside to discuss.

Lin Feng is going to install a B this time!

I believe that the future Jack Ma would be very devastated if he knew that he had stolen this idea.

That is, he is not going to ring the bell on stage today, but arranges the opportunity to ring the bell for users, employees, and partner representatives!

"Joe, I decided to do what we said earlier and let the employees, users, and partners ring the bell. ”

"You and Fei Yang, as the representatives of the company's employees, are the president of the company, and you have worked hard all these years. Fei Yang is the first employee of the company, and he has also made great contributions to the popularity. ”

In addition, Li Yuchun, on behalf of the company's signed artists, also took the stage as an employee representative. ”

In terms of users, three representatives were also selected: Chen Jing, a user selected by the lottery of Wuai Music Network, Elder K (Melancholy Wind) of the Star (Star) Guild of the First Guild of FF, and Hu Ge, a creative celebrity of Tudou.com. ”

"In terms of partners, please ask Mr. Zhao of Mobile, Mr. Liu, who has the highest share of entertainment on the FF open platform, and Mr. Li Dongsheng, our independent director, to ring the bell together. ”

Li Dong had heard Lin Feng talk about this idea before, and originally thought that Lin Feng was a whim, but he didn't expect that today, Lin Feng really decided to do it!

He couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly: "Boss, you are too unusual! It's the first time I've heard that when a company goes public and rings the bell, the big boss doesn't go up, so invite employees, users, and partners to go up and ring the bell!"

Lin Feng said with a smile: "This is the best marketing to our popular company values! Let the world feel that we are popular with the concept of user value first, as well as the importance of employees and partners." ”

Li Dong saw Lin Feng's resolute attitude, so he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll just go and communicate with David and the people from the New York Stock Exchange." ”

Lin Feng smiled and nodded, turned around and walked over to Ye Weiyu, who was standing aside chatting with Li Ying and another beautiful woman.

"Lily, you're here too, the leaves are resting during this time, hard work for you...... Who is this?"

Ye Weiyu took his arm and introduced him with a smile: "This is what I mentioned to you last time, Lily's little junior sister at MIT, Bella, whose Chinese name is Zhao Yating." Now we are the Managing Director of Maple Leaf. ”

Lin Feng smiled and stretched out his hand to shake hands with her: "Hello, Bella, I will rely on you to help me more in the future!"

Zhao Yating has medium-long hair and a white professional suit, looking very capable, she smiled and said, "Mr. Lin, congratulations,...... Don't be kidding, you are the big boss of Maple Leaf, please give me more advice in the future. ”

At this time, Lin Feng raised his eyes and saw Yang Yuanqing not far away, so he smiled and waved his hand, and then walked over with Ye Weiyu.

In the process of chatting and taking pictures like this, the time soon came to half past eight.

The staff of the New York Stock Exchange came to invite Lin Feng and others, and they could enter the New York Stock Exchange to prepare.

The NYSE opens at the same time as the NASDAQ, at 9:30.

Unlike the NASDAQ bell ringing, the NASDAQ bell ring platform is very large, and everyone will go up, including family and friend groups, IPO underwriter staff, etc. But the small bell balcony of the New York Stock Exchange is very small, so only some people can go up, and the other part can only look up on the trading floor downstairs.

To be honest, this is also the reason why Lin Feng didn't want to go up and ring the bell.

On the one hand, who to let go up and who not to let go?

On the other hand, there are more people standing on it, so it is easy to squeeze .......

Therefore, learning from Ma Yun's strategy in the previous life and getting a few representatives to go up and ring the bell seems very forced.

In the background, after Lin Feng announced the candidates for ringing the bell, including the listing underwriting team and the personnel of the New York Stock Exchange, they were all surprised and admired Lin Feng's idea.

As for the 9 bell-ringing representatives, it seemed a little surprised, of course, when they were invited to come, they were also told that there might be a bell ringing link, I thought they were going up with everyone, but I didn't expect to be selected as the bell-ringing representatives, which is of course an honor, and I am very excited.

The time was almost up, and Li Dong took the other eight delegates to the small balcony upstairs to ring the bell.

Lin Feng, accompanied by investment bankers and Li Mengyuan and other company executives, walked into the trading hall.

At this time, the media reporters gathered in the media activity area of the lobby on the first floor and the counter traders of the New York Stock Exchange in the trading hall were very surprised, crowded together, and the flashing lights kept flashing.

At this time, news has already come that Lin Feng will not ring the bell on stage, and the bell ringers of the popular listing this time are Fengxing employees, users, and partner representatives. The news immediately caused a stir in the media, and it was the first time in the history of the NYSE that the company's founder did not ring the bell on stage.

Lin Feng is worthy of being a headline person who is full of "news" all the time!

At 9:20 a.m., looking at the delegates on the small balcony of the bell, John Thain, chairman of the New York Stock Exchange, asked Lin Feng again: "Are you really sure you don't want to ring the bell? ”

Lin Feng smiled and shook his head: "John, this is the second time you have asked me, the answer is, no, I don't regret it, in fact, ringing the bell doesn't mean much to me, I'm very happy to be able to let these representatives ring the bell, it's a very meaningful thing!"

"Richard, I admire your ideas. John exclaimed.

At 9:30, as Li Dong picked up the small hammer and made a bell (actually electronically controlled), a bell rang for "Dangdang", and the scene resounded with warm applause, and the New York Stock Exchange opened!

Lin Feng applauded with everyone, and the position he was standing in front of the counter of Barclays Bank, the designated market maker listed on the popular market, looked at the screen, the page showing the stock trading of Fengxing appeared, and on the stock trading interface with the code "FX", next to the issue price of 45 US dollars, the number of inquiries began to appear.

Unlike the Nasdaq, the NYSE inquiry process is manual rather than computer-operated, so there is literally a scene where there is a scene like on TV, where traders call and shout quotes.

After ringing the bell, it actually means that the popular trading officially begins.

Of course, it takes a while from the beginning of the transaction to the conclusion of the first transaction, that is, the opening price comes out, because the buyer and seller need to make a price match, and the stock underwriter needs to find a suitable price to sell.

The general stock will complete this process within half an hour after the bell is ringed, and the more popular stocks will take longer, and the inquiry time for Ali's listing in the previous life was as long as three hours......

In this case, Lin Feng and the core executives are waiting in front of the counter of the designated market maker, and then the underwriter and the designated market maker decide when to ring the opening bell.

Of course, he won't wait stupidly, under the guidance of the on-site staff, Lin Feng came to the CNBC studio next to him and accepted a brief TV interview.

Li Dong and other members of the management team and directors who stepped down will also come to the media area to be interviewed by some media reporters on the spot.

"Richard, we noticed that your wife also came to the scene of the New York Stock Exchange today, which reminds us of that romantic kiss when the NASDAQ rang the bell 4 years ago, and we heard that your child has just been born, and we wish him a healthy growth!"

CNBC's host laughed.

"Thank you, I was young at that time, and I liked to do whatever I wanted, and now I am much more mature...... Lin Feng replied with a smile: "Of course, Fengxing is also my other child, I have put the most effort into it, and today is also an unforgettable day for me." ”

"Tell us about your mood at the moment. ”

"I am very excited that Fengxing Group has grown from a small online music website to a group ......with an Internet ecosystem in the past seven years," Lin Feng said eloquently to the camera.

……

Time passed minute by minute, and before I knew it, one and a half hours had passed, and after Lin Feng finished the interview, he continued to return to the counter and wait.

Not open yet!

The number on the trading screen has changed to $66, and the inquiry continues......

Li Dong was smiling next to him: "Boss, it seems that this time it will be a very high increase!"

David, the head of Goldman Sachs standing next to him, also said excitedly: "Wow, Richard, this is higher than we expected, I estimate that it is likely to rise to $68 today!"

Li Mengyuan also smiled: "It seems that our previous predictions are a bit conservative!"

Lin Feng shook his head and said with a smile: "It's okay, think about when Baidu was listed, but from the issue price of $27, the opening price was $66, and it closed at $122.54, an increase of 353.85%. ”

Li Dong was helpless: "Boss, no matter how high Baidu's rise is, the volume is so big, can it be compared with our popularity......"

Also, even if it soars more than three times, Baidu's market value is only more than $3 billion, which is less than a fraction of the popularity.

Finally, the time came to 11:10.

It has been 1 hour and 40 minutes since the market opened, and the popular inquiry range is rising, from $48-50 per share in the first round to $68 per share in the eighth round, and the trading floor erupts in cheers or surprises from time to time. However, this round of inquiry process can be a lot of traders.

Finally, the quote on the screen came to $68.2, and the traders of the market maker Barclays Bank communicated with the representatives of the stable market manager Goldman Sachs and determined that this was a suitable price!

So, Lin Feng and the traders at Barclays Bank pressed the trade button at the same time!

There was cheers on the trading floor!

Lin Feng took the small wooden hammer with a smile on his face and struck it the opening bell next to him.

Then he handed the hammer that rang the bell to Li Dong, and after Li Dong finished ringing, he handed it to Wang Hao, Wang Hao handed it to Li Mengyuan after ringing, and Li Mengyuan handed it to Zhang Zhijiao after he finished ringing...... The continuous ringing of bells in the trading floor indicates that Fengxing Group, the largest Internet company IPO in history, has finally opened for trading!

The opening price, $68.2, is 51.55% higher than the issue price!

According to this opening price, the market capitalization of Fengxing rushed to $54.56 billion!

The market capitalization of Fengxing is second only to Google with a market value of $140 billion and Yahoo with a market value of $80 billion, becoming the third largest Internet company in the world!

At this time, Apple's market value was only $76 billion, eBay was $20 billion, and Amazon was $17.5 billion......

Popular, finally soaring into the sky!
