Chapter 136: Rockefeller
NASDAQ, the madness and ruthlessness of the stock market are staged every day, this is the paradise of capital, and it is also the sad land of countless people's dreams.
Guan Xin stood on the stage, solemnly signed her name on the transparent board of acrylic, and then pressed the button representing the opening of the market, and the stock code of Maidong Music was displayed on the big screen, and the red and green numbers began to jump happily. Behind her, there was a round of applause from the investors, not only Chen Bo, an independent director, but also Zhu Linan of Legend Investment and Dr. Song Anran, a partner of SoftBank SAIF.
The stock price of $3 continued to rise with the active buy orders, and the green number kept churning up, and the efforts of these days were finally in vain.
Only the main board of the New York Stock Exchange is eligible to ring the bell, the Nasdaq can only push the button, and the US stock market is green up and red down. If anyone wears a red outfit, they will laugh out of their big teeth, and of course it will look a little out of place if they wear green.
By the time the market closed at noon, Maidong's stock price had risen by 230%, and its market value had soared from $600 million to $1.38 billion, and a unicorn company was born, which made Nasdaq's long-lost Internet concept stocks cheer, and spring is finally here!!
Unless you dive frantically in the afternoon, it is absolutely impossible to fall below the issue price on the first day, and the listing team of Mai Dong can already open champagne, and the Four Seasons Hotel nearby has prepared a celebratory dinner.
"Congratulations, you have finally become a little rich woman!" Chen Bo whispered to Guan Xin.
"I'm far worse than you, my goal is to trample you under my feet!" Guan Xin said proudly that 5% of her personal allotment has made her net worth 69 million US dollars, although it cannot be sold for the time being, this is also the value on paper, and it has been more than 300 million yuan in exchange, and the working queen has been officially crowned.
But this is also in China, the United States can't squeeze into the top ten, Pepsi Cola, Lockheed Martin are all female presidents, plus Hewlett-Packard, eBay is also the Iron Lady in power, their annual salary plus options have exceeded 10 million US dollars, and there is a female executive of Google who is about to go public, and there is more than one Mayer, but the youngest is Guan Xin.
"You'll never be able to step on it, but you can ride me under you today!" Chen Bo smiled evilly.
", this is NASDAQ, can you stop thinking about those dirty things." Guan Xin's face was slightly red, and she quietly spat.
"Yes, knightess! Be careful next time. ”
“……”
At the celebration dinner, Guan Xin, who had already changed into a small dress, became the most dazzling star on the field, holding a wine glass and wandering among the guests, tasting gentleness and elegance. In addition to company executives, investment institutions, and Wall Street media circles. Normally, some celebrities should be invited to the platform, but Chen Bo didn't find a suitable candidate for a long time, they were all shallow and profound, and it was impossible to pull Trupp's cheap old man over.
However, Wendy Deng took the initiative to come over to congratulate him, which made him unable to refuse at all, after all, she was a New York socialite, so she didn't have time to think about it, but she didn't have time to remind Guan Xin, hoping that she wouldn't fall for this woman.
"Congratulations to Mr. Chen, Mai Dong is so successful today, when will Ant Search consider going public?" Lou Liyun, the head of Merrill Lynch Greater China, who successfully operated the listing of Maidong, said after touching Chen Bo with champagne in her hand.
"You're the seventh person to ask me that today." Chen Bo pursed his lips and pointed to the investors in the crowd, this feeling of stars and moons is not too wanted, they are all hungry wolves who want to take a bite of meat from the little ants.
"As long as Ant is not listed, believe I will ask it every day." Lou Liyun is not a good woman, and the person in charge of Greater China who can mix with the four major investment banks should not be underestimated. "Oh, yes. I live in Tangchen Golf in Shanghai, and I heard that you are in Jiujian Hall, and we are still neighbors, so I will definitely visit you when I have time. ”
"I have a vicious dog at home, and it's very fierce." Chen Boyan said, I almost said that I would let the dog bite you, and I even inquired about the place to live, but even if I went back, I couldn't live for long, and the house was just a temporary place for him to rest now.
"Is it more fierce than you?" Lou Liyun exhaled like an orchid, showing her female advantages to the fullest, it is undeniable that she is a mature and charming woman. Elegant, generous, and intellectual, these words are not an exaggeration, but now the sense of charm is even greater, and the valley hidden under the low-cut dress is a great temptation for men. Moreover, Chen Bo also felt a silky calf that she quietly rubbed over.
"I'm sorry, I still have something to do." Chen Bo hurriedly slipped away, such a woman can't be provoked, and Guan Xin is right in front of him, how can she still look like you?
The financial circle is indeed more open to men and women, especially investment banks and bond sales that do underwriting and sponsorship business, he is not a chick, he has heard of it for a long time, but he didn't expect it to be so bold, but for him, this temptation is not enough for him to fall under the pomegranate skirt.
"Hi Vincent, hello!" As soon as he got out of the hands of the female hooligan, he was stopped by a white man in his early 30s.
"Hello." Although Chen Bo didn't know who the other party was, he also held his wine glass, smiled and nodded, which was the minimum etiquette.
"Nicholas Rockefeller, chairman of Rosrock Capital." The white man introduced himself mildly.
"The Rockefellers?" Chen Bo was taken aback and said.
"Yes, David was my great-grandfather." Nicholas still has a gentle smile, which makes people feel like a spring breeze.
David Rockefeller is the chairman of the largest commercial bank, Chase Manhattan Bank, but has now merged with Morgan to form JPMorgan Chase, which is also known as J.P. Morgan, but it is still the largest commercial house.
"Mr. David is a philanthropist who deserves everyone's respect."
In addition to inheriting the family's strong business genes, David is not only a super-rich, but also a well-known philanthropist. His mother built it, and he donated it.
"Thank you for your compliment, your ant public welfare is also doing well, and it is worth promoting." Nicholas complimented, "I also went to China last year, and it is really full of investment opportunities, and I really envy you for being born in that country." ”
"Your real name is Rockefeller?" Chen Bo was puzzled, and his gossip heart suddenly rose: "You are not humble like the Rockefeller family, which controls the lifeblood of the United States. ”
"I've heard this a million times, but I still have to explain it." Nicholas said with a black line on his face, "As you can see, the family wealth is in the trust, and it is true that there are shares in some companies that I have no right to access. My family's upbringing taught me to be independent, and I only had $1 a week in pocket money when I was a child. ”
"Then you are more than me, I am so poor that I have no pocket money." Chen Bo smiled, "Just kidding, I'm not stupid, it's all exaggerated ingredients in the book." The media likes to exaggerate, and they can't wait to fabricate an underground kingdom. ”
Is Rockefeller rich? Yes, there are quite a few company shares, but they are also very low-key. is different from the infinite exaggeration in domestic books, at least it is a family praised by everyone in the United States, with a good reputation and not so mysterious. The University of Chicago and Rockefeller University, which were founded, are both first-class universities, and the total number of Nobel Prizes alone has exceeded 100.
Whether it's the author or the media, they know what readers like to read, so they will spread rumors, but no one pursues the truth, because the people think it's true.
"So, you don't have a very good relationship with the media." Nicholas exhaled and said with relief, the Rockefeller surname was an honor for him, but also a burden.
"Fight with the sky, it's fun! Fighting with people is endless fun, and fighting with the media is even more fun!! Chen Bo adapted the famous sayings of Xia Taizu and learned and applied them lively.
"Admire, I envy your freedom and ease. If I dare to do this, I will definitely be kicked out of the family. Nicholas gave a look of jealousy, not fake.
"When you envy others, others envy you. It is not up to you to choose where you are born, but you can only prove your worth by your own efforts. Chen Bo took a sip of wine and said, "Old Rockefeller wasn't rich at the beginning, was he?" It's not like creating a wealth myth, I'm even more of a poor bastard, and now I'm chatting with people from the first family, which is unimaginable, but I did it. ”
"You're so right, too many people now value my Rockefeller aura, and actually ignore that I'm actually a poor bastard who doesn't have much money." As if he had found a soulmate, Nicholas couldn't help but sigh.
"But this surname can really make you do more with less, so don't be aggrieved." Chen Bo patted him on the shoulder, although this action was not too polite, but it was equivalent to a recognition of his friend, Nicholas did not have any displeasure, but accepted it happily.
"After I went to China with my uncle Steve, I felt that the time had come to prove myself."
"Whatever you want to say, just say it, I don't like to go around in circles." This is the second time he has mentioned this, and Chen Bo would be stupid if he couldn't hear it.
"I want to invest in Huaxia, but I also know that there are still a lot of restrictions there, so I hope you can help me."
"As long as it's not an investment ant search, everything else is easy to say, what about the specific plan?" The ant is now pouring all his heart and soul into it, just like his own son, which is hatched little by little, how can he be willing to give it to others?
"The World Financial Center, I hope to use this as a breakthrough. Rothrock Capital's main investments are real estate, IT and telecommunications, which are our strengths. ”
The kid is very fat, steady, accurate, and ruthless! And the news is also quite well-informed, so you can dig it out if you hide it so tightly. Chen Bo said in his heart, I definitely can't make you feel better, I have to pick you up a layer of skin.
"It's a good idea, but the Global Center is something I won with great difficulty, and you should know the specifics, it's not very glorious." Chen Bo began to frown and act again, and he was also thinking about how to make a good price.
If it is the Internet, it is definitely a lion's mouth, but the traditional real estate industry is not blown out, and there are standards for how to evaluate it.
"Don't worry, my uncle Steve wants to invite you to play together on the weekend, and you can talk about any problems when the time comes." Nicholas said at this time that he was just a director and not the chairman of Rosrock Capital, and it was his uncle who was really in charge.
"Yes, so I can prepare it." Chen Bo readily agreed.
"Then I'll deliver the invitation to my room, and we'll see you on Long Island over the weekend." Nicholas remained modest.
It's quite aggrieved that you haven't come out to be independent at the age of thirty, and no one in such a big family will be too happy, right? Except for the domestic gentlemen, those second-generation can only be regarded as nouveau riche, lacking a good educational premise, how can they inherit the family inheritance.
