In the first volume, Xiao Lotus showed sharp corners Chapter 745 The development of the sixth sense

NASDAQ is a financial securities trading institution in New York, but different from the New York Stock Exchange, the biggest difference is that the NASDAQ uses electronic trading, while the New York Stock Exchange uses a broker trading system.
The first NASDAQ was a platform for small businesses to conduct unlisted financing, collecting and publishing quotes from securities firms for over-the-counter unlisted stocks, and it was also the first stock market in the world to adopt electronic trading and face the world.
The growth rate of the NASDAQ has surprised the world, and their over-the-counter trading methods have eliminated specialized stockbrokers, so many people believe that the NASDAQ is not a stock exchange in the real sense, and should be regarded as a virtual market!
But this NASDAQ will occupy half of the US stock market in the future, and the NASDAQ index is also one of the important indicators to measure the stock market.
It is worth mentioning that Microsoft Corporation and Fruit Corporation are both listed on the NASDAQ.
Of course, the New York Stock Exchange can now also trade through the guò network and telephone, but it is still not as convenient as the NASDAQ.
This time, the sixth sense company, the platform that chose to go public, is NASDAQ. Because the listing requirements of NASDAQ are the lowest among all large exchanges, much lower than those of the New York Stock Exchange, Tokyo Stock Exchange, London Stock Exchange, Hong Kong Stock Exchange, etc.
The Nasdaq's listing requirements are net tangible assets of more than $6 million, pre-tax income of more than $1 million in the previous year, more than 1.1 million shares outstanding, more than three market makers, a minimum price of $5 per share, and more than 400 whole share shareholders.
In general, the stock exchange should look at the pre-tax income of the previous three years, but also look at the market value of the shares held by the public, the number of shareholders of whole number shares should be more than 2,000, the net tangible assets should be more than 18 million US dollars, and so on.
The superior conditions of NASDAQ have allowed many companies listed on NASDAQ, among which small and medium-sized enterprises and emerging enterprises are the most, so that these small enterprises can quickly achieve their financing goals. In a way, the NASDAQ is a bit like the GEM in the previous life.
Sixth Sense Company meets all the requirements in terms of assets and taxes, but the number of shareholders is insufficient, because Sixth Sense Company has only a few hundred employees on a lifetime contract, so there are not so many shareholders.
Island companies have this kind of lifelong contract employees, but this kind of contract is generally only provided to employees of island countries, and foreign employees are rarely available. This kind of contract is very common in large companies in island countries, and if there is no serious mistake or crime, you can basically live in this company for the rest of your life.
And they will also increase the salary of such employees according to the number of years, and some companies, such as Songxia, etc., have another benefit, that is, if the employee is single, then after marriage, the wife of the male employee will be required to resign and take care of the family full-time at home, and at the same time, the salary of the male employee will increase by about 50%, or even double, which is based on the salary level of the woman before marriage, and in the island country, under normal circumstances, the salary of female employees in the same position is only about half of that of men.
In this respect, island companies are still humane, but the most protected are the interests of their own people. The Sixth Sense company has more than 5,000 employees, but there are only a few hundred people on lifetime contracts, because the others are employees in Europe, the Americas and other parts of Asia, and they don't even work in the island country, and for the sake of profit, Kameda Masao certainly won't give these people the same contract.
And once something happens to the company, the business situation is not good, and it needs to lay off employees, it is good to lay off these ordinary contract workers, because according to the contract period, the amount of compensation to be paid will be much less.
Of course, Masao Kameda will not tell the media about this, and if he does, the media will ask, can't employees who are not on a lifetime contract subscribe to the shares of Sixth Sense internally?
Of course, you can, for example, the middle-level and above management in some overseas markets can subscribe for the stocks of the Sixth Sense internally, but unlike the headquarters of the island country, a security guard with a lifetime contract can subscribe for the stocks of the Sixth Sense.
Feng Yu originally had some complaints about this, everyone is an employee of the sixth sense, you can set a working period, so that more people can buy the shares of the sixth sense company, isn't it more cohesive?
But Kameda Masao explained that the employees of the sixth sense overseas are mainly salespeople, as we all know, salespeople are one of the most mobile employees, and the elimination rate is also very high. The Sixth Sense company gives salespeople short-term contracts, unless you can become a gold medal salesperson, then you can get a management position, and you can also buy company stocks.
Feng Yu can't refute this, he is far less familiar with the Sixth Sense Company than Kameda Masao, and even in terms of company management, he is much worse than Kameda Masao.
He didn't use his major shareholder to pressure Kameda Masao, so he did it according to what Kameda Masao said, anyway, since Kameda Masao managed the Sixth Sense company, the development speed has far exceeded Feng Yu's expectations, and unconsciously, the Sixth Sense has grown into a world-class sex ~ fun goods giant, among which inflatable ~ dolls, erotic ~ fun underwear, self ~ masturbation appliances and safety ~ sets, is the largest source of the company's profits.
Among these four items, inflatable ~ doll and erotic ~ fun underwear, market share and sales, have grown to the world's first, whether in Asia, Europe and the Americas market, have firmly sat on the first throne.
The remaining two pillar industries of the company, with the popularity of the sixth sense company, the market sales are also gradually rising, although there is still a big gap from the world leader, but the gap is still shortening.
With the increasing output of the island country ~ color ~ industry to the United States and European markets, Kameda Masao believes that the sales of self-~ masturbation appliances will gradually increase, and in this regard, the design of their island country is leading the world!
Safety ~ condom is the new profit growth point of the sixth sense company, although the sales are good after the listing, but even the island country has not been able to reach the first, let alone the first in Asia, the world's first. At present, the No. 1 safety ~ condom brand in the island country is Okamoto, who is pressed by the sixth sense.
In this listing and financing, Kameda Masao is also ready to invest funds in the research and development of safety ~ condoms, first defeat Okamoto in China, and then dominate Asia and dominate the world.
For Kameda Masao's ambition, Feng Yu is not very optimistic. Whether he can defeat Okamoto, Feng Yu has drawn a question mark, not to mention that there are so many big companies in the world.
However, the condom market will get bigger and bigger, which Feng Yu recognizes, and it is still necessary to expand the scale and increase R&D investment after financing.
If it weren't for Feng Yu sucking away the profits of the sixth sense several times, in fact, the financing would not have been so high.
For this listing, Feng Yu and Kameda Masao are full of confidence, because the few market makers they found are the top financial market makers in the world! (To be continued.) )
