Chapter 253: The Ocean of Money
ps: Thank you book friends for your support in order to continue to have books to read, thank you very much!
No one would doubt that SC Bioengineering is a hen that lays golden eggs. Pen & Fun www.biquge.info not counting the sponsorship of world-renowned companies and the investment in opening stores, the ticket revenue that exceeds one million dollars every day and is growing at a rate of 50 percent every month is enough to prove the value of the money.
A few months ago, AC Nielsen, the world's largest statistics and survey company, released its own survey data. They believe that SC Bioengineering's annual ticket revenue will exceed $1 billion in one year and more than $5 billion in three years.
That's a staggering number, and there's been a more exciting news recently that SC Bioengineering is likely to make a massive price hike in the near future.
The market predicts that after the official completion of the park's infrastructure construction, from the semi-experimental opening to the full official opening, the lowest half-day ticket price is very likely to exceed US$400. According to the company's long-term business plan, the theme park will reach more than 40,000 visitors a day in three years.
You know, this is a theme park, and its cost is definitely not comparable to that of the manufacturing giants. Even if SC Bioengineering operates at the maximum cost, its profit after deducting all expenses is at least 70%. This is without taking into account its hidden asset size and returns.
It is undeniable that the new company, which will be listed on the New York Stock Exchange, will be the most envied and sought after by investors in recent times. This will bring a great deal of wealth to the promise.
"The news is out?" Xu Yu looked at the familiar scenery outside the window, and a strange thought flashed in his heart: "Do you think it will go well this time?" ”
"It's going to go well." Cahill looked visibly excited: "After the news of the imminent price increase of our tickets spread, the number of guests who are ready to visit the park has increased instead of decreasing. Even in Hawaii, scalpers have appeared who resell tickets. The market response has also been very good, with ******** people saying that there have been no more attractive IPO plans than ours in recent times. They will be fully operational. ”
This kind of thing has always been the preserve of those investment banks, and they are even the real behind-the-scenes bosses of this industry. Some people may say that they can issue shares and go public by themselves, without giving these brokerages the opportunity to take a fee. But if you do, don't even think about going public. Even the application from the stock exchange could not be approved.
The stories and tentacles that lurk underwater in this world are far from being understood by people living on the water. Even if everyone knows that SC Bioengineering is a hen that lays golden eggs, it must be sucked hard by contractors like ********.
The so-called contract brokers are those investment banks and securities firms that are qualified to issue new shares and underwrite the shares to be listed at a certain price after the stock exchange has approved the listing application.
In other words, before the official listing, these brokerages have already given the money to the listed company in advance according to the price negotiated by both parties. Next, they will put the stock in the market, and the higher the price, the more they will earn.
After negotiations, the number of shares listed by SC Bioengineering was 90 million shares, and if the underwriting price was $30 per share, that would be $2.7 billion. After deducting the issuance expenses, more than 2.4 billion US dollars were also received. These 90 million shares account for 20 percent of the company's share capital.
After receiving a large amount of investment, the largest boss of the company, which has been in the limelight recently, still promises to own more than half of the shares. He just promised not to stand in the foreground, so he made Cahill his own agent as chairman of the board of directors and president of the company.
The second shareholder is still Pavlyuchenko, and he has also made a lot of additional investments, so the stake has not been diluted too much, and the stake has been maintained at about 7%. The rest don't know who the real boss is, all of them are leather bag companies registered in the Cayman Islands and other places, and it is almost impossible to track down the boss behind the scenes.
With a huge amount of cash, the promised lab has an investment that they can burn. These laboratories are affiliated with SC Bioengineering. And coupled with the previous investment in all aspects, the amount of funds that can be mobilized at the moment is already very terrifying.
Promise never worries about someone taking away his company. As a superpower, it's all too easy to deal with specific targets.
And he doesn't care about money, and it's not about this company. All he really cares about is the predictable black technology. As long as he can get a lot of black technology from the mission world and create it in the modern world, everything in front of him is just floating clouds.
"Good, you're a billionaire now, too." Promise knows the story of slapping a sweet date. If you want people to die for themselves, it's not enough to just give bones, sometimes you still have to give some broth to drink. Cahill got some shares, not much, but enough for him to become a billionaire.
"Thank you, boss." Cahill thanked him from the bottom of his heart. If it weren't for the promised help and appreciation, he wouldn't be so beautiful now, and it would be very difficult to even deal with the bad luck on him.
"Do it well." Promise smiled, "I'll watch you ring the bell tomorrow in the VIP room." ”
The New York Stock Exchange's opening bell ringing ceremony was actually a huge gimmick. Ringing the bell for the listing of new stocks that are favored by investors can greatly stimulate the confidence of most investors, that is, the so-called retail investors, in new stocks, so as to spend real money to buy stocks.
For ********, they have long been familiar with doing these things. Some time ago, the news media was so dense that it was unbelievable that there was a shadow of dinosaurs behind it. After all, the higher the share price, the more profit they make as an underwriter when they withdraw cash. This is an iron law in the stock market.
The company itself has incredible results, and the boom in resurrecting dinosaurs will bring huge benefits. And the continuous bombardment of all kinds of media continues to blow this company to the sky. If AC Nielsen's survey report was the catalyst, then the peak of this hype show was here to ring the bell for the opening of the market.
There are many companies in this world, and the one who is really active in the front desk is not necessarily the boss, but more likely to be just a senior part-time worker, or a professional manager? Cahill rang the opening bell for the day as president and chairman of the board of directors of the company, and as the most sought-after new stock in recent times, SC Bioengineering officially went public for $30.
"How's Rome doing?" In the luxurious VIP room of the exchange, Xu Promise, who sat on a leather sofa with a leisurely face, looked at the bustling trading floor outside the huge transparent window, and turned his head slightly to look at Pavlyuchenko, who was pouring vodka next to him, to ask about his former assistant.
Everything out there is just for show. The money has already arrived, and even the promised laboratories have begun to work intensively. Moreover, a major shareholder like him also has a contract that prohibits the reduction of shares for a limited period of time. At this time, no matter how lively the hall outside is, it has little to do with the promise for the time being. So while he watched the excitement, he turned his attention to other places.
Pavlyuchenko, who was shiny on the door of his head, paused visibly and held the hand holding the large bottle of vodka tightly: "That bastard is so fateful, he didn't die all the way." It's still in the gulag, but I don't think he will last long. ”
"Oh." Xu Yu squinted his eyes at Pavlyuchenko beside him, and his expression changed in his eyes. After a moment, he chuckled and turned his head to continue quietly watching the performance outside.
The stock market is a magical place where a penniless person can become a legend and a billionaire overnight. It is also possible to make a super-rich person go bankrupt and become a street man in one day.
A variety of financial derivatives and a variety of leverage effects make the stock market a real invisible battlefield. Here, the wealth exchanged for every second is almost an astronomical amount that ordinary people cannot reach in their lifetime.
This is the world of money, the ocean of money. Those dizzying numbers are all there is here. This is a huge ocean of money, countless sharks, giant crocodiles, and ancient crocodiles lurking beneath the murky waters. They are the real masters of the ocean of money.
Xu didn't have much interest in this place, because he had already seen what was more attractive and fascinated him than money. Completing quests in the quest world and getting rewards with rings are all magical things that can't be bought no matter how much money you can't buy.
The promise of normal intelligence certainly knows what is more important. For the bustle and bustle outside the VIP room, look at the traders who are so excited that they have thick necks and have phones in their hands. Promise's eyes are like watching a lively drama. He didn't mean to get involved, because he wasn't short of money. He already has higher pursuits, which money cannot buy.
The previous period of hype and media bombardment did play a very important role. Of course, the main reason is that SC Bioengineering itself has the absolute gimmick of resurrecting dinosaurs. After all, whether something is good or not is the cornerstone of everything, if it is completely just by blowing, it may be able to succeed for a while, but in the end, there will definitely be no good ending.
Thirty dollars a share is the underwriting price that ******** promised them, and they can't trade at that price after the actual opening of the market. As an investment bank, and a veteran industry boss, ******** is very able to calm down.
Ten minutes after the opening of the market, the offer had risen from $30 and 15 cents to $38, but there was still not a single sell order.
"The frequency of offers is fast and the prices are constantly increasing. In other words, there is a lot of confidence among market investors. Do not worry. Pavlyuchenko's reassurance, the promise was only a polite nod in response.
In fact, as a smart person who has eaten NCT-48, Promise has of course learned everything here in detail. It's very complicated and obscure, and the promise doesn't have much time to pay attention to it. But that's enough for him to understand everything Pavlyuchenko said.
"Forty dollars, five hundred lots." This brand new offer finally broke the silence of the market, and the first stock trade was closed.
"Alright." Xu Yu got up and looked at the bustling trading floor outside, tightened his clothes and walked towards the door, "I still have something to deal with in Los Angeles, and the matter here will be handed over to you." (To be continued.) )
