Chapter 103: Study Conversation on Christmas Eve
As the saying goes, what kind of pot goes with what kind of lid.
These words are used to explain the friendship between our county lord and her best friend Lilian, which is simply too apt.
The county lady of the late secondary and second disease patients, the girl who can make good friends, does not have a little bit of two in her personality, that is unrealistic!
Therefore, being teased by the second best friend, our county lord could only swallow her anger, pinched the condom box in her hand, looked around, and there was no trash can for her to throw away, so she had to be a thief and stuff the box of condoms into the bag.
Then the county lord took the water cup angrily, drank all the water in the cup in one go, and the flush on her face finally faded a little.
And the second best friend next to her is still chattering about her dating experience to Pei Pei: "Honey, don't be stupid in the future!" Remember, no matter if a guy asks you to do something, as long as you are alone with the two of you, it is considered a date invitation."
"Also, if the man blahblahblahblah" Speaking of the rise, Lillian also took a full sip of the water glass, moistened her throat, and continued to barrah
The incompetent county lord mother, in the face of the good girlfriend's dating experience, has all kinds of disgust on her face, and from time to time she interjects a few words, complaining about Lilian's chaotic private life. In private, however, she secretly pricked up her ears, absorbing the various arguments and experiences that Lillian had elaborated on about love.
So, this lunch date between the little sisters, the entire second half of the time, was completely reduced to the teaching time of Lilian, the queen of love, and the teaching content was divided into two categories: one. On the Thirty Means of Displaying Femininity; Second, on a hundred techniques for hooking up with men.
The county lord's mother, who was instilled with a lot of emotional problems between men and women, returned home in a daze with a mind full of Lilian's energetic arguments.
On Christmas night that night, she spent the night with her family, but she had been sitting absentmindedly at the dining table, her stomach digesting the food at the same time. The brain was also digesting Lilian's energetic arguments.
"Pei Pei? Pei Pei? β
"Huh? What's up? β
Li Chenghua's call interrupted the county lord's contemplation. She looked up at her father blankly.
"What were you doing just now? Why didn't you react when Daddy talked to you? Li Chenghua pretended to be displeased.
The county lord's mother blushed, could she tell her father that what she was thinking about just now was something inappropriate for children? If her father had known that Lillian had instilled such things in her during the day, he would have been furious and would have put an end to Lillian's contact with her!
"Ahem," Pei Pei picked up the soup bowl. Covering the flush on his face, "I'm thinking about the paper assigned by the tutor." β
In order to avoid her father's continued questioning, she hurriedly interrupted and asked, "By the way, daddy." What did you just tell me? β
"You are also a major shareholder of Kangmei, and you should also care about Kangmei's listing steps!" Li Chenghua put down the dishes and chopsticks. After picking up a napkcloth and wiping his mouth, he continued: "You were busy setting up your own company before, and you did not attend several internal decision-making meetings held by the shareholders on the issue of listing. Now you've set up your own company. It's half a foot in the mall, and your grandfather reminded me a few days ago that I can't treat you like a child anymore. After dinner, you come with me to the study. Regarding Kangmei's current listing situation, I also want to talk to you, a shareholder. β
Daddy's expression looked very strict, and Pei Pei didn't dare to continue to desert at the table, she put down the soup bowl and said "oh" to Daddy.
The old lady glanced at her son, "Ah Hua, how many times have I told you, don't talk about business at dinner!" β
After speaking, the old lady sandwiched another piece of vegetables and put it in her granddaughter's bowl, "Good granddaughter, your father is looking for a sense of storage in front of you, who let your grandfather show off in front of him all day long and say that you are better than him." Come onβeat this spiced beef stew, your Aunt Qin has been stewed all afternoon. β
Li Chenghua was choked by his own mother, and his prestige as a father could not be erected, so he had to sigh, picked up the chopsticks again, and stretched out to the pot of spiced beef stew on the table.
After dinner, the bear child Xiaohao turned out the firecrackers and all kinds of fireworks bought in the Chinese supermarket, pulled his brother Xiaozhi and Uncle Ham, and ran to the garden to put them up.
The traditional Chinese firecrackers and fireworks on Christmas night are also regarded as the Li family's repertoire after dinner.
Pei Pei followed Dad Li and the old man into the study under the greeting of Dad Li.
As soon as the old man entered the study, he found a sofa position to sit down, and he closed his eyes and recuperated with his back to the sofa.
Li Chenghua pointed to the position of the sofa to his daughter, and he sat behind the desk. As soon as he sat down, he habitually opened the desk drawer to take out the cigar box from it, and just as he wanted to take out the lighter, he suddenly reacted that his daughter was beside him.
So, Li Chenghua had no choice but to put down the cigar box again, and after coughing, he said to his daughter gently: "Peipei, you are my daughter, and you are also the major shareholder of Kangmei!" With the shares in your hands, the Li family can dominate the board of directors. Therefore, on the issue of Kangmei's listing, even if you don't ask, you still have to understand the whole process. β
Seeing his daughter nodding at him, Li Chenghua continued: "Because Kangmei holds your patented formula, it has been a dominant company in the same market over the years, and it has already attracted the covetousness of countless peers and all kinds of venture capital!" Therefore, as soon as the news of Kangmei's listing was announced, countless investment banking companies took the initiative to negotiate, and the board of directors has set up a special financing department, and has also contacted those investment banking companies on Wall Street that are relatively well-known and qualified to issue issues. During this time, a total of more than a dozen investment banking companies were contacted, and after comparison, the board of directors felt that the conditions given by the two investment banking companies were good, and they were ready to choose one of the two investment banks to sign an entrusted listing contract. β
After a pause, Li Chenghua continued: "Daddy, I have also had a lot of contact with investment banking companies during this time, so I have a little understanding of the US securities market. The main sectors of the U.S. securities market are: the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), the National Stock Exchange (AMEX), the NASDAQ market, the Signboard Market (OTCBB) and the Pink Sheet Market (PKK-S). OTCBB and PKK-S will definitely not be considered, NYSE, AMEX and NASDAQ have their own advantages and disadvantages, and the specific application for which sector to list will be determined after the specific investment banking company is determined. Make a decision after listening to the advice given by a professional investment banking company. β
Seeing that his daughter listened attentively, Li Chenghua nodded with satisfaction, picked up the cup and took a sip of water to moisten his throat, and then continued, "Once Kangmei passes the IPO (initial public offering), even if we choose the listing model of AB shares, the shares of all original shareholders will inevitably be diluted accordingly. Pei Pei. You currently have 30% of the shares, and you will be one of the majority shareholders of the company, both before and after the listing. There are a lot of decisions that you have to know and touch even if you don't participate in them! Especiallyβ"
Speaking of this, Li Chenghua looked sideways at the old man sitting on the side, and the old man had opened his eyes at some point. Seeing his son's gaze at him, he pretended to close his eyes and recuperate.
Li Chenghua saw that the old man didn't answer. I had to continue, "Especially since you have registered your own independent legal company, and now you are engaged in drug research, and your grandfather has also discussed this with me. Rather than developing new sales channels on its own in the future, your company should join forces with Kangmei, at least Kangmei already has mature sales channels. So. For the future development of Kangmei, daughter. You also have to get on your head, don't just sit and wait for the dividends. Moreover, your two younger brothers are still young, and as the first Li family in the third generation to step into the business world, you also have to take your share of responsibility, you know? β
My father has said so, can I still say no when I am a daughter?
So, the daughter had no choice but to smile at her father with a shy face: "Okay, okay, daddy, I know you've worked hard!" Don't go around in circles, just say it, as long as your daughter can help, you can just tell me! β
With such a hippie smile on her daughter's face, her father's face couldn't hold back, Li Chenghua glanced at her daughter quietly, and after a "hum", she said: "After Christmas, I am going to book a venue at the Hilton Hotel and hold a business reception, I will take you to attend, and then I will introduce you to several important partners who know Kangmei." β
"Got it, Daddy." Pei Pei nodded with a smile on her face, but secretly complained in her heart: Alas~ It looks like the time to return to Palo Alto City is delayed again, and the people who can't see me after Christmas Dr. Duma will definitely call me again and roar.
After seeing his daughter nodding, Li Chenghua looked at the old man on the side who had been silent, "I said old man, do you have anything else to add?" β
The old man opened his eyes, turned his neck and got up, "Me? I'm a retiree! After speaking, he picked up the handmade cane given by his granddaughter, walked leisurely towards the door, and shouted to his granddaughter: "Pei Pei, go-go with your grandfather to the garden, and watch your two younger brothers set off fireworks." β
"Hey, it's coming!" Pei Pei immediately got up and followed, took the old man's arm, and the grandfather and grandson walked out of the study with a kiss.
Looking at the straight back of the old man who claimed to be a retired old man, Li Chenghua shook his head with a wry smile, and did not follow the grandfather and grandson out of the study, but opened the drawer of the desk, took out the cigar box, and hid in the study alone and smoked the cigar. (To be continued)
