"Duke, you have to take time to go today no matter what," Cai Siqiang said softly, "This is our first listed company, it matters whether the first gong rings or not, Sirius's listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange is a new beginning of our development, and in the future, SAL's companies will gradually enter the market and become public companies in the market, which will help our enterprises to further expand and establish an international transparent image." ”

After winning the Nobel Prize, Duke frequently appeared in various media, and the frequency of exposure has exceeded that of all celebrities, and he has chased the country's leaders, there is no way, and now Duke is also the chief scientist of the SAL enterprise group and the vice president of the official Academy of Sciences, and has to attend many occasions to deal with it.

Therefore, although Sirius's listing is extremely important for SAL, Duke believes that it is enough to have Cai Siqiang attend the opening ceremony of the Stock Exchange, and this kind of superficial work is really a kind of destruction of his own work, and he is now the chief scientist of SAL Group, spanning the four major systems of nuclear reaction research, software system architecture, materials science and military industry research, and has to solve particularly important and difficult technical problems every day, so that each project will not be stuck in a certain problem and lag.

This has been a practice for many years, Duke is responsible for the macro architecture design and the support of the core key algorithms, so it ensures that the following R&D projects are almost on the right path, and has won a lot of time for the R&D progress, although this R&D model is highly dependent on Duke's technical grasp ability, according to the general view, it is extremely risky - after all, a person always has a place to think out, and it is too risky to rely entirely on one person to guide the way forward.

But Duke seems to be a technical god who surpasses everything, and can always find suitable solutions or methods for various difficult problems. For the long-term development of the enterprise, this approach may stifle everyone's enthusiasm and creativity, and make too much reliance on Duke's judgment.

But at this stage, this is indeed the most efficient way, which saves a lot of time to take detours, so that the research and development work is always running on the right path and achieving results quickly.

"Caicai, what's the difference between you going and me going to this kind of thing, left and right are just a formality, you know I'm too busy to touch the ground now," Duke looked at Cai Siqiang a little helplessly and said, "There are a lot of things in research and development that I have to deal with, no, Dong Feng's kid asked me to go to his base this morning, because there seems to be something wrong with their fire control system, and they can't always lock the tracking moving target." ”

"It's okay to stop them for a day, this kid knows how to cause chaos." Cai Siqiang said with some annoyance, he is not very optimistic about the military industry, and the matter of Duke capturing the Global Eagle is still a high state secret, and Duke did not even dare to tell these people around him, he was afraid that the more they knew, the more dangerous it would be.

"We don't dare to delay the listing of Sirius, it's only this once in a lifetime," Cai Siqiang continued, "According to the prediction and analysis of stock experts, whether you appear or not is related to the positioning and prospects of SAL for Sirius, and the impact on the stock price on the first day of listing is at least 20%. It can be said that your appearance is worth more than billions of dollars! ”

According to the current stock issuance of Sirius Company, the total share capital is one billion shares, of which 100 million shares are publicly issued, calculated according to Hong Kong accounting standards, Sirius's main business income in the previous year was 116.2 billion Hong Kong dollars, the main business profit was 45.2 billion Hong Kong dollars, and the net profit was 25 billion Hong Kong dollars, that is to say, the earnings per share were 25 Hong Kong dollars, and the underwriters priced according to 20 times the high price-earnings ratio, and the issue price per share was as high as 500 Hong Kong dollars.

Such a high price is a little unacceptable even for Hong Kong people who are accustomed to seeing the big world, and many stock commentators say that the risk of underwriting this time is more than 4%. But Cai Siqiang insisted on high pricing, in his opinion, this is the face of SAL, the first shot must be played, Sirius's positioning is now in addition to the navigator, in the future SAL will be installed in the automotive intelligent electronics, so Cai Siqiang believes that with the cooperation between SAL and Qiyang Group and Lao Li's family, Sirius will continue to develop rapidly.

In this case, setting a high price is conducive to maintaining Sirius's international image.

This is also the reason why Cai Siqiang is anxious to let Duke come forward, with Duke's current image, it will definitely add a lot of color to Sirius's market opening.

"Okay, I was defeated by you" Duke heard Cai Siqiang say this, so he had to reluctantly agree, "In fact, as long as our company does a good job, why worry about the stock price not rising, anyway, we don't expect to make money from the stock market." ”

"This is different, there is a good corporate image, for the promotion of corporate products also has great benefits, after the listing people will recognize you as a responsible company, because after the listing of a lot of supervision means can prevent enterprises from messing around." Cai Siqiang said.

Now SAL's various companies are indeed not short of money, almost every company is continuously contributing cash flow, so that SAL's expansion is almost not short of funds, so there is no need to simply list to make money, Cai Siqiang is considering the future to standardize the company, and its various companies will inevitably embark on this listing road.

Therefore, it was necessary to become popular at the beginning and take the lead for later companies to go public one after another. As a person in charge of a company, Cai Siqiang's thoughts are really understandable, the major shareholder of this company is still Duke, and it is really natural to invite Duke to come forward for a show.

"Okay, okay, just do as you say, when will you go?" Duke knew that he really couldn't excuse himself, and to put it bluntly, he should have come forward as a major shareholder to justify this matter. Although Cai Siqiang is now famous as a business wizard and has an extremely strong reputation in business circles, for the public, it is clear that Duke, the new Nobel laureate, is more worthy of recognition.

With Duke's appearance, Cai Siqiang once again played his banner as Sirius's chief scientist, which is really a good shot in the arm for investors.

On January 2, 2017, Duke sounded the opening gong on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, and Sirius officially landed on the Hong Kong stock market, becoming the most optimistic capital darling in the eyes of global investment institutions, and the stock price directly doubled on the day of listing to break through the 1,000 Hong Kong dollar integer mark and maintained to the close, creating a new record for the unit price of Hong Kong stocks.

Sirius' IPO was a complete surprise to stock critics, and it was a huge success, with Duke's fortune skyrocketing, and for the first time, owning a publicly traded company with a share price of more than $100 billion.
