Chapter 760: Officially listed

1 February 2004.

From the submission of the listing application by Penguin to the final listing, it took one month.

In a month's time, the NASDAQ can be described as falling miserably.

The stock index has returned to its original shape from more than 3,000 points and fallen back below 1,000 points.

This is somewhat similar to what Yahoo brought back then.

Yahoo also led the Nasdaq from 1,000 points to 3,000 points in a month.

However, the penguin has not yet been listed, and directly let the stock index return to its original shape again.

In this month, countless investors have left the market, cut the meat, and suffered heavy losses.

However, the market can't keep falling.

Today, Penguin will be officially listed, and many people are looking forward to the first day of Penguin's listing.

Among them, there are investors who have subscribed to Penguin shares.

There are still many shareholders who have not subscribed, but still want to buy.

However, it is more expected that the listing of Penguin can alleviate the decline of the Nasdaq.

After all, many voices agree that Penguin has a lot to do with the fall of the Nasdaq this time.

While this can't be blamed on Penguin, they haven't done anything, and they've always been pretty good at following the rules of a public company.

But, no matter what, Penguin is still inextricably linked.

Fortunately, all the qiē has passed.

People are desperate to find a factor that can stabilize the market.

The listing of Penguin has given people an expectation.

Similarly, Zhang Ning is also looking forward to it.

After all, it is the first listing of its company, and if Zhang Ning doesn't feel anything, it is impossible.

Not only that, but the thought that Penguin is going to become the world's largest by market capitalization today is even more exciting.

At 8 o'clock in the morning, Zhang Ning came to the NASDAQ exchange, accompanied by the executives of Penguin.

He wants to witness this moment in person, to witness the listing of Penguin.

At the same time, in order to welcome the listing of Penguin, many tourists from far away in China also attached themselves to Wall Street to cheer for Penguin and witness the listing of Penguin with Zhang Ning. Of course, there are also countless domestic students studying in the United States, who have also formed groups and come to the Nasdaq trading giant plaza on Wall Street.

In addition to these, people in the United States also held various ceremonies on the same day to celebrate the listing of Penguin.

Before the opening of the day, the Nasdaq hung a banner celebrating the listing of Penguin Inc.

In addition to writing in English, the banner is also accompanied by Chinese.

In addition, the large LED billboard of American Times Advertising also played an advertisement congratulating Penguin on its listing.

The content of the advertisement is based on China's unique Chinese red, rendering the entire Times Square.

Of course, there are countless media outlets, a delegation of nearly 1,000 journalists, who have entered the NASDAQ exchange.

They want to send the latest first-hand news of Penguin back to China.

At 8:55 local time, the Nasdaq exchange will open, and Penguin will be listed.

Countless people, at this moment, are preparing themselves.

This includes the media, market makers, traders, individual investors, exchange staff, and countless expectant tourists.

8:57 a.m.

8:59 a.m.

9 o'clock.

A bell rang, and Zhang Ning rang the NASDAQ opening bell with his own hands (it should be pressed, not really knocked)

With the ringing of the bell, the NASDAQ officially began trading.

Penguin was also officially listed on February 1, 2004.

Stock Name: Penguin Inc.

Founder: Zhang Ning

Stock Code: QEGS

Company type: Internet integrated service company.

Issue price: $10.

IPO financing share capital: 10 billion shares.

Total share capital: 45 billion shares.

Underwriters: Goldman Sachs Capital, Morgan Stanley, Deutsche Bank, Credit Suisse, Citibank, Bank of China......

When the Nasdaq marked all kinds of information about the penguin company, the entire NASDAQ exchange was boiling.

Someone shouted.

Someone screamed loudly.

Pieces of applause came, and countless congratulatory voices resounded throughout the clubhouse.

It's listed.

It's finally on the market.

When the listing bell rang, Zhang Ning already felt that he had drawn a thick symbol in this world.

This symbol will be indelible in history.

"Xiao Ning, congratulations."

Chen Qingqing on the side, looking at Zhang Ning with tears in his eyes.

"Thank you."

Zhang Ning hugged Chen Qingqing tightly.

Of course, in addition to Chen Qingqing, there is also Han Xue.

Although she was not an employee of Penguin, Han Xue also accompanied Zhang Ning to the NASDAQ exchange.

Even if it was Tong Lei beside him, Zhang Ning hugged her into his arms.

He was so excited.

Even if he had thought about this day for a long time, but when he walked to this day in person, he was so excited that he was speechless.

Penguins topped the biggest IPO in history.

The $100 billion IPO has long been considered the largest IPO in history.

But this moment can be regarded as a real arrival.

However, the news of Penguin's ascension to the top of the largest IPO in history was quickly abandoned by everyone.

Because, on that day, Penguin was not only the largest IPO in history, but also the world's largest supergiant by market capitalization.

Prior to that, the number one in the world by market capitalization was AlasenMobil, an American oil company.

Previously, his market capitalization was more than $400 billion.

Although before Penguin went public, there were already media claims that Penguin's market value would surpass that of AlexenMobil. However, Penguin is not listed after all, and who knows if Penguin can surpass it. Moreover, the market value of Alas Mobil is also more than 400 billion, which is about the same as the total market value of Penguin.

However, today, these media can officially announce that the world's largest market capitalization has changed.

Currently, Penguin's market capitalization is ......

Market value......

The specific market value is not sure for the time being.

For a moment, there was some embarrassment in some of these media.

This is not because it has not yet closed and the final share price cannot be determined.

The reason why these media outlets can't determine the market value of Penguin is because they have discovered a very strange phenomenon.

At present, the opening price of Penguin has not yet come out.

Yes, the NASDAQ exchange has been open for almost 10 minutes, but the opening price of Penguin has not yet come out.

This is a very strange phenomenon.

What's going on?

Did the Nasdaq Exchange make a mistake in counting jù?

Why hasn't the opening price come out yet?

Many people who don't know the truth are constantly asking.

Even, at this time, Zhang Ning was also a little worried.

Wouldn't it, Ni Mei, the first time the old subsidiary went public, you ran into an accident?

However, soon, the Nasdaq exchange gave Zhang Ning and a reply to the media.

There is no error in the number of NASDAQ exchanges, and at this time, it is still being processed normally.

As for the opening price of Penguin, why it has not come out yet.

That's just because Penguin's plates are so big, and because there are so many people participating in the call auction, the transaction is too busy. At present, the system has not fully calculated the opening price.

Such an explanation stunned everyone.

Damn, that's a little scary.

Even the computer hasn't calculated the opening price yet, so how terrifying the trading list must be.

Still, think about it.

Penguin has a total of more than 40 billion shares, and the issue price is 10 yuan per share, which is more than 400 billion US dollars.

Even if it is only 100 billion US dollars, the money involved in it is a terrifying number.

The computer didn't react all of a sudden, which is normal.
