591 Ali is listed on the market, aiming at flying purchases (4k)
""Iron Man" had a good start at the box office on its first day, with 60,000, directly breaking the single-day box office record held by "Painted Skin", also starring Zeng Li."
Liu Yifei was lying on the bed, looking at the computer. The Penguin Portal entertainment channel was full of movie news, his eyes were filled with envy.
"Sissi, get ready, we are going to America tomorrow." Liu Xiaoli pushed open the door and walked in with a smile on her face.
"Go to the United States?" Liu Yifei asked doubtfully.
"Yes, your agency is established."
Liu Xiaoli smiled and said: "Uncle Chen helped you contact William Morris, which is one of the top three brokerage companies in the United States."
"Mom, will this offend Hua Yi?"
Liu Yifei blinked. The reason why Huayi asked her to star in "The King of Kung Fu" was because he wanted to sign her on this condition. Not only did he find Cheng Long and Jet Li, but he also asked his sister Li Shuangbing to act as a co-star.
Can Huayi tolerate letting go?
"It's okay to offend if you offend me."
Liu Xiaoli's abacus was shrewd.
The worst case scenario is to give up the mainland market first. As long as Liu Yifei uses "The King of Kung Fu" as a springboard to successfully break into Hollywood and develop into an international superstar, there will be enough capital to find her to return to China to film.
Stage a return of the king!
"Mom, wouldn't it be better to sign the Han and Tang Dynasties?"
Liu Yifei pouted.
"Sissi, haven't we analyzed it before? If you go to the Han and Tang Dynasties, you won't be able to get good resources, but William Morris is different."
Liu Xiaoli said with a smile: "They will package you in all aspects. It is said that they have identified 6 scripts for you, just waiting for you to choose. Be obedient, how could my mother harm you?"
"Well……"
Liu Yifei frowned, and suddenly a news headline appeared in his sight on the screen——
The Film Bureau held a symposium on the movie "Iron Man".
The entire meeting lasted for 1 hour.
After it was over, Gao Yuanyuan took the car back to the Rose Garden Villa.
I saw Lu Fei sitting in the living room, staring at the documents and thinking deeply.
"Is the press conference over?"
Gao Yuanyuan walked over softly.
Lu Fei hummed and concentrated on writing and drawing, with a dense pile of plans and information about Double Eleven in his hand.
Gao Yuanyuan leaned her head over and asked, "What are you writing?"
Lu Fei rubbed his eyes: "The leaders of Zhongnanhai will come to inspect Feigou.com before Double Eleven. I will make a draft in advance and list everything that should be reported and reflected on."
"Oh, oh, Zhongnanhai..."
Gao Yuanyuan pursed her lips and asked no more questions.
"I have prepared a surprise for the leaders."
Lu Fei pointed to a pile of paper in his hand, which read "Home appliances going to the countryside" and "E-commerce stimulates the internal circulation of the economy under subprime mortgages"...
Although Gao Yuanyuan couldn't understand it, she was greatly shocked.
Lu Fei held her in his arms, "Is the symposium over?"
Gao Yuanyuan nodded, "We had a great time at the meeting. Sister Zeng Li, Sister Lifang and I shared all your views on the co-production film, and the "Guidelines" you wrote were also handed over to them."
"Tong Gang, what did Han Sanping and the others say?"
Lu Fei knocked on the table.
"I said I would take it back for a meeting to study, but I basically agree with what you said. One of the starring actors must be a Chinese actor. You can't just add some Chinese elements. The Chinese company will invest some money and it will be considered a co-production."
Gao Yuanyuan asked curiously: "Will Hollywood agree?"
Lu Fei smiled: "They make co-productions because they want to make money in the Chinese market. But we are different. We are trying to imitate the industrialization of Hollywood."
"oh!"
Gao Yuanyuan raised her eyebrows: "No wonder you said in the "Guidelines" that one-third of the crew must be from China."
Lu Fei snapped his fingers: "Right now, we are just a handicraft workshop. It's shabby. It's so shabby. Our Chinese-language movies need to have a decent industrialized system. I'm thinking about going into it when I'm filming "Iron Man 2"
Get some people to follow and learn."
"Ning Hao, Xue Xiaolu, Lu Yang..."
Gao Yuanyuan counted on her fingers and found that the number was less than ten.
Lu Fei really wanted to add Wu Jing and Guo Fan, but there are currently no such people in the director circle, so he can only save the country through curveballs. The Han and Tang Dynasties funded a film exhibition for young filmmakers to tap potential stocks.
Gao Yuanyuan's eyes lit up: "Like Andy Lau's 'Asian Rising Star Director' plan? It sounds good."
After chatting around the "Youth Film Exhibition" for a while, Lu Fei also acted mischievously with Gao Yuanyuan for a while, holding the ball with one hand and holding the bowl with the other, "How is the box office of "Iron Man" now?"
"Very good~"
Gao Yuanyuan's face glowed, "But looking at the trend, it is difficult to achieve a box office of 300 million in the mainland alone. It also depends on the Hong Kong and Macao markets."
""Iron Man" will be released in Xiangjiang Cinemas on October 12."
"Shocking! The prototype of Iron Man is actually the richest man in Asia."
"Asia's richest man changed hands. Lu Fei was listed on Nasdaq with Spotify, surpassing Li Huagua, and his net worth exceeded US$25 billion."
"Superman Li lost his title as Asia's richest man! The culprit turned out to be 'Superman' Li Zekai who mistakenly sold Penguin shares."
"..."
Xiangjiang's craze for money and rich people has led to endless reports by the media. Phoenix TV's financial channel also made special news immediately, with eye-catching and interesting headlines——
Iron Man vs. Superman.
Watching the host on TV comparing the old and new richest men, Lu Fei and Li Huanggua, Lu Yun's face darkened.
"Jack."
Cai Chongxin knocked on the door and said truthfully: "Goldman Sachs hopes that we can set the IPO price at HK$5."
"Spotify costs 9 US dollars. How can we, Ahri, be as big as a small music software under Lu Fei's name?" Lu Yun picked up the remote control and replaced the TV.
"That's the platform gap."
Cai Chongxin said helplessly: "After all, we are not listed on Nasdaq, but on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. But having said that, we are not listing the entire group, just B2B business."
Lu Yun's frozen expression softened slightly.
Since the Hong Kong Stock Exchange does not support "different rights for the same shares", the management team with fewer shares than SoftBank and Yahoo came up with countermeasures.
Split Ali Papa’s business into 6 companies.
B2B, Taoduoduo, Chengxintong, Yahoo, Ali Software, and TV shopping have all become wholly-owned subsidiaries.
And Ali Baba Group became a holding company.
This is equivalent to the company changing from one board of directors to six independent boards of directors, eliminating the possibility of being controlled by SoftBank, Yahoo, or even big capital one day in the future.
In addition, I also took out road insurance.
Two brand-new companies were registered in Cayman, one of which is a listed entity and holds 100% control of the other company.
It then acquired six wholly-owned subsidiaries of the group, including Xiangjiang Ali Baba, which acquired part of the core assets of the B2B business, and another part of the assets that belonged to Hangzhou Ali Baba.
One business, two assets, two companies operating.
Ghost Capital's operation is comparable to Alipay's independence.
It can not only save the country in a curve, avoid listing restrictions on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, but also weaken Yahoo and SoftBank’s control over Ali Group.
"Perhaps the stock investors in Xiangjiang cannot see what we are doing and think that the whole Ali Baba is listed."
Cai Chongxin said: "But those investment institutions and the capital behind them understand clearly and are only willing to set this issue price."
Lu Yun pondered for a while, "Just HK$5 for HKD. A lower IPO price can attract more investors."
Cai Chongxin smiled and said: "Yes, it's not all bad. Besides, there are so many capitals from Hong Kong and Taiwan willing to support us."
Lu Yun touched his chin, deeply convinced.
During Ali Papa's global roadshow, it was more popular in Hong Kong and Taiwan than in the United States. It was oversubscribed more than 50 times, accounting for about 20% of Ali Papa's global stock offering, and accepted a two-year
lock-in period.
After all, Guo Taiming and Li Huanggua took the lead in supporting it.
Both out of business and out of selfishness.
Needless to say, Guo Taiming, because since BYD OEM has been supported by Lu Fei, Foxconn has been quite frustrated, especially because Logic has so many orders and only gave itself 30%——
You have to look at Mr. Lu’s face!
The Li Huanggua family may be venting their anger on Li Zekai, who was deceived by Lu Xiaoji into taking away 20% of Penguin's shares. Now they are worth at least more than five billion US dollars, and they are nailed to the pillar of shame.
Compared with oneself, hatred is worse than others.
Of course, it is more out of the interests of the local faction in Hong Kong.
Because Penguin was listed on the New York Stock Exchange, it embarrassed the entire Hong Kong Stock Exchange and Hong Kong, and gave the reformists an opportunity to take action.
The continuous reforms centered on "same shares but different rights" have shaken the interests of local conservatives, and plans to support Ali to become the number one Internet stock in Hong Kong that is not inferior to Penguin, to prove that——
The Hong Kong Stock Exchange does not need penguins or flying purchases.
As long as you are willing, even Ali can become the king of stocks!
It can be said that the listing of Ahri this time is completely a counterattack by the Avengers, and the one who takes revenge is the god-damned Mr. Lu.
"Google's market value is US$18.4 billion, Amazon's market value is US$21.5 billion, and Penguin's current market value is US$27.4 billion."
Cai Chongxin listed the top five Internet companies in the world by market value one by one. "Taking advantage of the Federal Reserve's interest rate cut, funds are pouring into Hong Kong. I think this time it will be more than 18 billion US dollars."
"Less, at least 20 billion!"
Lu Yun said with a straight face: "Not to mention surpassing Penguin, at least becoming the third Internet company in the world in terms of market value. Chongxin, we need to fully mobilize retail investors in Xiangjiang. How is Xuanfa doing?"
Cai Chongxin made an "ok" gesture, and advertisements were carpet-bombed throughout Hong Kong from newspapers to television to the Internet.
"People in Xiangjiang swarm around, scrimping and spending money to buy stocks, hoping to get rich instantly. They don't even know who the winner is."
Lu Yun looked down from a tall building, "Instead of losing all your money, why not give me your money to defeat this bastard Lu Fei!"
On October 10, with the listing of Kingsoft Software yesterday, the market value reached 4.7 billion Hong Kong dollars, driving the entire technology stock sector, and a large amount of Hong Kong hot money poured into the stock market.
Ali Baba, who is also a technology stock, has attracted much attention.
In particular, the media in Hong Kong are working at full capacity, constantly hyping the scandals between Lu Yun, Guo Taiming, and Li Huanggua, just like Penguin landing on the New York Stock Exchange and constantly promoting Buffett and Bill Gates.
Investors queued up at the exchange early in the morning.
From the entrance to the end of the street, as far as the eye can see, advertisements for Ali Baba are everywhere on the streets, and there are even large posters of Ali Baba on the trams.
"I missed Penguin, and I don't want to miss Ahri again."
"If Penguin misses it, it misses it. What's so great about a mainland Internet company? As long as we are willing, we can still raise Ali's market value even higher than it is."
"That's right! You ignored us back then, but today we will make Lu Fei unable to reach his heights and give him a little shock."
"..."
"Hey, the market is open, the market is open!"
"Wow, the issue price is HK$5, and the opening price has risen to HK$30. The increase is 120%."
"What does this mean? It means it is in demand, buy it quickly!"
A large number of retail investors actively subscribed to Ali's shares.
In the trading floor, traders wearing red vests were busy sitting in front of computers. They were working hard to process customer orders for Ali stock, but the subscription tide was too overwhelming.
The large number of orders overwhelmed the Hong Kong Stock Exchange's trading system.
Everyone in the lounge was extremely excited. Some were jumping, some screaming, some throwing paper in the air, and some even opened champagne.
The air is filled with a faint fruity aroma.
"Congratulations, Mr. Lu."
The local executive of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange smiled from ear to ear: "With Ahri's achievements, I think it is entirely possible to challenge flying shopping!"
"We came to Hong Kong to go public just to compete with Feigou! We have never been satisfied with being the second largest e-commerce company in China. From the moment Ali was founded, our goal has been to be the number one e-commerce company in the country!"
Lu Yun said the cruel words excitedly.
The executive echoed: "It was Lu Fei's biggest mistake not to choose the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. I hope Mr. Lu will let him see this!"
"Haha, definitely."
Lu Yun vowed to do so.
A few minutes later, a group of people went to the trading floor of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange to participate in the listing ceremony. Along the way, the photographer kept changing the angle of the camera and pressing the shutter frantically.
Flashing lights one after another illuminated the entire hall.
Amid cheers and applause, Lu Yun turned around to face the camera, showed a bright smile and made a victory gesture.
Then he stepped on the stage, walked to the microphone, and said a few polite words to the busy traders around him as his opening remarks.
"Thank you! Thank you very much!"
"I would especially like to thank my team. It was my team that promoted Ali Baba's listing today. Without them, I would not be able to stand here and give a speech today. In 2001, my team and I wanted to do B2B and B2C
Combined with e-commerce, we want to become one of the top five e-commerce websites in the world. People may think we are crazy, but the fact is, we have done it.”
"Ari is now the fourth largest e-commerce platform in the world after eBay, Amazon, and Feigou. Next, our goal is to break into the top three in the world. You may think this is crazy."
"But I firmly believe that everyone has a dream."
"Everyone should know what their dream is."
"The Ali people's dream is to surpass Feigou.com internally and become China's number one e-commerce website, and externally surpass Amazon and become the world's number one e-commerce website. And the first step of the dream..."
"I just want to destroy Feigou.com!"
"Today we are not here for money, but to find partners and to jointly develop Ali Baba. Ali Baba will not be satisfied with the second place, and Feigou.com will not always be the first. We plan to use 5
It will take 10 years to complete.”
Lu Yun was full of passion, with tears in his eyes, venting all the grievances he had suffered from being suppressed by Master Lu for many years, and officially declared war.
"Thank you to all investors for believing in me and my team."
"Thank you! Thank you very much to everyone here today!"
Once the speech spread, it completely ignited the investment boom.
The Hong Kong Stock Exchange's computer trading system even experienced network congestion.
It attracted a total of 560,000 retail investors in Hong Kong, with subscription orders exceeding 33.1 billion Hong Kong dollars, oversubscribed 257 times, and US$1.7 billion in funds raised. The stock price closed at 35 Hong Kong dollars that day.
Ali Baba’s market value has reached US$25.4 billion.
The veritable first Internet stock in Hong Kong!
For a time, he became the most proud “child” of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.
Who is Feigou.com?
I'm really not familiar with him, I only know Ah Li.
As for Lu Fei, well, just give him face and call him Mr. Lu. If you don’t give him face, Feigou.com will never be listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.
The Hong Kong Stock Exchange is in trouble.
The people of Hong Kong are gone.
Ali Baba’s senior executives are also confused.
At the celebration dinner, glasses were exchanged, and it was very lively.
After all, with the listing of Ali Baba, everyone present became multi-millionaires and billionaires, especially Lu Yun, whose net worth soared to US$1.8 billion (HK$14 billion).
"Chongxin, I think it's time."
Lu Yun's eyes were shining. It was time to let go of the trouble, no, to release the military power over a glass of wine. He planned to arrange for the resignation of a group of people including the second-in-command Sun Tongyu, the COO, the CTO, and the vice president.
It’s a beautiful word: learning on a rotational basis.
"Are you waiting?"
Cai Chongxin felt a chill in his heart.
"What are you waiting for?"
Lu Yun has long been dissatisfied with Sun Tongyu and his gang.
All of them are suffering from terrestrial phobia and are afraid of competing with Feigou.com. They don’t believe that Ali Baba can defeat Feigou.com. They feel that Ali Baba is only worthy of being the second child of e-commerce. They are a complete surrender.
If these people don't clean up, how can they destroy Feigou.com!
"Then at least let's get through Double Eleven first."
Cai Chongxin advised: "I have just asked many investment bank analysts, and they all think that Ali's current stock price is a bit high. However, during this year's Double Eleven, Feigou.com will continue to set records, and we cannot continue the '619'
'The performance is very likely to be exposed. When the time comes..."
"Okay then, let's wait until Double Eleven."
Lu Yun narrowed his eyes. It has been 8 years since our establishment, Ali. We have been defeated repeatedly by Feigou.com, resulting in a loss of morale and prestige.
This situation must be reversed.
My purpose in this battle is to clearly tell the world and Lu Fei that we are attacking and defending aliens. Wherever the enemy goes, I can go too!
Anyway, the total funding is more than 2 billion US dollars.
