With a shout from camera director Kang Lianshun, the official filming of the promotional video for Phantom Technology's U.S. listing road show began.
Li Qing, Zhou Shu, and Jia Cunrui successively described the establishment of Phantom Technology, as well as the process of agency and production of games such as "Legend of Hot Blood", as well as the future importance of Phantom Technology in Hanhai Group's large entertainment plan.
In addition, the promotional video also uses G animation to introduce the online social networking, game experience and value of the games owned by Phantom Technology, and also shoots many games such as "Legend of Hot Blood" at this stage.
professional competition,
The promotional video also introduces in detail the various benefits of online games, such as allowing young people to learn teamwork and speed up thinking. If you want to play games well, you must learn to understand design principles, make choices, connect, discover, etc.
Multiple skills.
And if you want to become a professional player, you must also understand design principles, practice more, specify strategies, and organize information. These abilities are also necessary for success in student days and future life.
After all, you have to work well with a dozen other people in the world to succeed, and the management skills you need to develop at this time are no different from those of the best company leaders.
Of course, Americans may not pay much attention to these one-sided explanations.
They like the story of a company before going public, so after summarizing the advantages of Phantom Technology, Phantom Technology also gave future investors interesting stories at the end of the film, which made the moviegoers excited to watch.
After the promotional video was successfully produced, Li Qing finally completed negotiations with the underwriters and set the final launch date on February 8, 2000.
And there is still one month left before this time.
On March 8, Phantom Technology, which has attracted the attention of domestic and foreign investors, announced the IP issuance price guidance range, which is US$4 to US$4 per share, and will raise a maximum of US$400 million.
According to this price range, the market valuation of Phantom Technology will reach between 2.2 billion and 200 million US dollars, which is approximately 20 billion yuan.
The price has attracted the attention of many potential investors including Wall Street, with many saying the price is reasonable.
After the price was announced, some people paid close attention to it, while others poured cold water on it, believing that there were potential risks in the Chinese market. Game companies are still the targets of the National Government’s efforts to crack down on it. The road to IPO for Phantom Technology is full of hardships.
Amid such rumors, potential investors have also expressed their intention to wait and see for a while, and many have begun to investigate the relationship between Phantom Technology and the Chinese government.
On March 1, Li Qing, Jia Cunrui and others led a road show team of up to 30 people and flew to New York to conduct the first road show before the listing, attracting many Wall Street big names to attend.
The road show venue was originally expected to be attended by 500 people, but six to seven hundred people arrived. It was simply overcrowded. In order to free up space, the organizer removed all the chairs. Although there were no seats, the entire venue seemed more relaxed.
The most important thing is, upon hearing that Leesin was coming in person, many New York fans immediately crowded into the small square outside the venue. There were more than 2,000 fans waving flags and shouting in the entire small square, which directly attracted a large number of police cars to arrive quickly to maintain order and safety.
.
Li Qing and others arrived at the venue and took to the road show stage.
A burst of warm applause broke out at the right time.
"Hello, gentlemen and ladies, I am Leesin, chairman of the board of directors of Phantom Technology."
Taking the microphone handed over by the organizer, Li Qing smiled and waved as usual to the potential investors present, and then smiled and said: "I am very glad that you can participate in the road show of Phantom Technology despite your busy schedule. Next,
My team and I will introduce to you the past, present, and future of Phantom Technology."
Li Qing's fluent American English greatly satisfied many people present.
In the past, Asians came to the United States for IPO roadshows, but their English speaking skills were like those at a car accident, especially the Japanese and Koreans, whose flat-tongued pronunciation made people’s heads spin, like the croaking of a duck.
Leesin, on the other hand, is more comfortable and has extremely good language skills.
No wonder she sings so well and writes novels so well. Not only that, she now owns a listed company. This is an absolute winner in life.
Many people stared at Li Qing with shining eyes, admiring the grace of this big star, which is what many fans dream of.
Of course, there were also many invited reporters present. After hearing Leesin's speech, they were all surprised. It is hard to imagine that Leesin could speak such fluent English after living in the United States for such a short time.
Li Qing's live speech basically appeared in the prospectus and road show video, so it went very smoothly. Later, the company's e-Jia Cunrui also gave a live speech.
"Five years ago, I was an unknown programmer in Silicon Valley..."
Under the flashing spotlight, Jia Cunrui talked about his changes in the past five years and the performance of Phantom Technology in the Chinese market. "After receiving Leesin's secret instructions, we went to South Korea to conduct research on the game "Legend of Hot Blood".
After inspection and agency negotiation, we finally successfully agented the game "Legend of Blood" and signed the permanent use right. At the same time, we made various improvements to the game to adapt to the Chinese market. Later,
We bought the server terminal of "Legend of Hot Blood" and created a Chinese version of "Legend of Hot Blood" that is different from the Korean version. Now, our team has developed hundreds of patents on this game.
Last year, our game was exported to the Korean market..."
The people present were more and more surprised as they listened.
It turns out that after "Legend of Hot Blood" came to China, Phantom Technology made various detailed adjustments to the game. In addition, after the game was launched, Phantom Technology also bought the server terminal of "Legend of Hot Blood" at a high price.
, and on this basis, the game is constantly updated in terms of service and experience.
This has resulted in the current version of "Legend of Blood" being far ahead of South Korea, and in the process of continuous creation of this game, Illusion has also applied for hundreds of national patents.
Many people were surprised. No wonder "Legend of Legend" was so popular in China, but received a mediocre response in South Korea. It turned out to be two different versions.
Later, Jia Cunrui introduced a number of casual games such as "Bubble Hall" and "Kart Runner", as well as Internet cafe management platforms, phantom security boxes, etc. Its main content covers online technology games, network security and
In the field of management, it can be said to be very rich.
Even in the United States, in terms of the development of online games, compared with Phantom Technology, they are evenly matched. In comparison, they are even slightly behind. This shows how powerful Phantom Technology is.
After a road show, investors discovered that the most valuable thing about Phantom Technology was not the games and software, but Li Qing’s foresight and terrifying ability to predict!
Of course, the most important thing is Li Qing's understanding of games. He seems to have a very deep and unique understanding of every game, and he provides game designers and engineers with general direction inspiration in a timely manner.
Whenever Li Qing accidentally proposes an idea, it will inevitably cause excitement and yelling among the engineers. This is why, in just two years, the patent application speed of Phantom Technology is approaching four digits.
“We are not worried about the game prospects and investment prospects of Phantom Technology. What we are worried about is Phantom Technology’s government public relations capabilities and its ability to survive in the general environment. As far as I know, ten years ago, the Chinese government had
The game was banned for a long period of time, which caused many video game industries to suffer heavy losses at that time, and the impact is still felt today."
Senior Wall Street investor John Brut asked the question proactively.
Li Qing had already prepared for this, and immediately said: "All the development of Phantom Technology is driven forward with the affirmation of the Chinese government. Online games are not drugs. We have mentioned in the prospectus that online games bring
What I can guarantee is that in the future, the Chinese government will not ban any games within the rules. On the contrary, the huge Chinese market with 300 million people will ban all kinds of online games.
The game is pushed to the top of the world..."
After the road show ended, the media waiting inside and outside the venue conducted interviews with the investors who entered the venue.
Among them, 7 interviewees said they would invest in Phantom Technology, most of them because they are optimistic about the future of Phantom Technology in the long term.
When reporters asked about the reason, people replied: "The products of Phantom Technology have a strong social media presence, and the most important thing is China's huge game market."
"With a large population base, as a leader in the online game industry, as long as World War III does not occur, I believe that Phantom Technology will develop better and better."
Others said that it was because they were optimistic about Li Qing and the Hanhai Group under his name.
Hanhai Group can now be regarded as an international enterprise. In addition to several local companies, Hanhai Group has also cooperated with many companies overseas, such as Hollywood Max Films and Bloomsbury.
Publishing houses, etc. Of course, Li Qing also owns American first-line singer Taylor Masefield's BG Entertainment Company, which is Hanhai's capital.
With the support of Hanhai Group, the future collapse index of Phantom Technology will basically be minimized.
At the same time, the IPO road show of Phantom Technology immediately attracted the attention of the famous investment exchange platform "Snowball".
On the Snowball Investment Platform, many investors from home and abroad gathered together to exchange views and stir up opinions, forming a highly active community. During the time when the new stock Phantom Technology was about to be listed, there were dozens of discussion posts on related topics.
Hundreds of items.
Among them, many Chinese investors are patting their chests and guaranteeing that they will buy this new stock as soon as possible, because only the Chinese can understand how popular "Legend of Blood" is in China and how influential Li Qing is in China.
.
In order to buy this new stock, many people have already hoarded their surplus food and made plans to wait and see. For them, if they have the ability, they will definitely snap up all the shares of Phantom Technology.
"In China, Phantom Technology has never launched a private placement plan. Why? Because Phantom Technology is not short of money, and its parent company is Hanhai Group!"
"Many capital parties want to invest in Phantom Technology, but they have no choice. Phantom Technology can be said to be a centralized system. All the shares and power are in the hands of Li Qing. As long as Li Qing is willing, he can remove the executives of his companies at will.
This is absolutely not allowed in A-shares. Of course, even if it is allowed, Li Qing probably doesn’t like A-shares, so he switched to the US stock market because the US stock market is more open and free."
"Judging from the current quotation, it is absolutely no problem for Phantom Technology's new shares to surge by about 20% when they are listed. Today next year, it is possible for a share to be worth 20 US dollars."
"Illusion Technology is very ambitious. After the financing is successful, I am afraid that it will expand its territory as soon as possible. By then, it will definitely be a round of skyrocketing."
Amid the proud comments of the Chinese, investors in many other countries are also itching to bear it. These years, when new stocks are listed, there will be a small rise. After the listing of Mirage, I am afraid it will be no exception, but if it can maintain a sustained and stable rise
, then it is definitely a potential stock.
Even for U.S. stocks, many new stocks have continued to fall in price after being listed, but compared to A-shares and Hong Kong stocks, the decline is not as severe.
If the development prospects of Phantom Technology are really that great, then buying this new stock is definitely a sure-fire deal.
In the outside world, the media has given mixed reviews to Phantom Technology's listing.
Although Li Qing stated that there is no conflict or restriction between Phantom Technology and the government, it still cannot stop people from doubting China, because judging from many award-winning Chinese films and media materials, China is a quite feudal country.
The restrictions on various online games are definitely the strongest. After all, reports of "electronic heroin" were once sold overseas, and people were deeply impressed by China's complacency.
Faced with this phenomenon, Li Qing was also helpless. Although he repeatedly assured that China was an absolutely open country, he still could not solve the doubts in the eyes of investors. Under this situation, Li Qing was increasingly looking forward to the arrival of the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
.
No matter how much you say, nothing is as valuable as seeing it in person.
After the first roadshow in New York, Li Qing held roadshows in major cities on all continents in the United States in the following days. After all, he was listed on the U.S. stock market, and the most investors he faced were Americans. If he wanted to obtain high
Quotes with high returns will naturally leave an impression on American investors.
Two weeks later, Li Qing ended his North American road show and began to continue road shows in Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan and other places.
The speeches given in the past few days have also given investors from all continents in the United States, including Wall Street, a general understanding of Phantom Technology, which is about to go public. And because it was Li Qing who gave the speech in person, many people also have a general understanding of the company.
This company has made a deep impression, at least from the perspective of fans. In order to support Li Qing, they may more or less buy some shares of Phantom Technology.
The shares held by these retail investors, when aggregated, are not a small amount.
Therefore, every time the road show ends, Li Qing will express his gratitude and greetings to the fans and book lovers outside the road show venue.
Another week passed, and the more than 20-day road show finally came to an end.
Early in the morning on February 8, the New York Stock Exchange welcomed a large number of investors. Today, a high-profile new stock will be officially listed for trading. ——
