In the era of the Internet boom, Nasdaq has created countless myths. Many new Internet companies with innovative ideas can easily create dozens or even billions or tens of billions solely by relying on money-burning creativity.
The market value of the U.S. dollar comes out.
Venture capitalists with deep pockets flocked to the market, waving their checks to make the market hotter and hotter. The companies they invested in went public and made a lot of money after they went public. After selling their stocks to ordinary stock investors at high prices, they wiped their mouths with pride.
Leave.
However, when the tide receded, it was clear who was swimming naked. Two far-reaching stock market crashes profoundly educated shareholders and small and medium-sized investors. The tried-and-true tricks of the past were no longer available on Nasdaq.
This has also led to the fact that the probability of new domestic Internet companies listing in the United States is getting lower and lower, and they can only seek to make ends meet in Hong Kong or the Mainland GEM.
Against this realistic background, Crowdfunding.com completed its IPO on Nasdaq, and its stock price rose nearly 100% on the first day. In the eyes of many people in the industry, it is really no small miracle!
As the star shareholder and founder of Crowdfunding Network, Lu Chen has undoubtedly received so much attention that many people have overlooked the real promoter and contributor to the listing of Crowdfunding Network on Nasdaq.
On December 2, the stock price of Crowdfunding Network continued to rise, exceeding 50 US dollars, which also made the market value of the shares held by Lu Chen truly exceed 400 million US dollars, heading straight towards 500 million US dollars!
The news from the other side of the ocean was conveyed back to China, and the upsurge of public opinion continued unabated.
The "China Financial News", which can be called the flagship in the domestic financial and economic circle, analyzed the successful experience of crowdfunding network in its front page headline and believed that the innovative Internet model still has great potential, although the main market has been dominated by several major Internet giants.
are divided, but small and medium-sized enterprises still have the possibility to stand out.
Compared with those less professional media, "China Financial News" undoubtedly paid much more attention to Li Muchi, the helmsman of crowdfunding network, than Lu Chen, and praised the young CEO highly.
But similarly, "China Financial News" also affirmed Lu Chen's genius mind.
Unlike the professional media, the general media and the majority of netizens stared at Lu Chen, praising and envying him. At the same time, some unharmonious comments also appeared on the blog network.
Some people say that Lu Chen has easily earned two to three billion now. Should he use some money to do good things?
As a result, he was immediately sprayed with blood!
Among the celebrities in the domestic entertainment industry, there are really few who can surpass Lu Chen in terms of the amount of charitable donations.
The "Chen Fei Charity Fund" founded by Lu Chen and Filia Chen has been established for almost two years. The fund assets have increased from tens of millions to 300 million today, 70% of which come from Lu Chen's personal funds.
For donations, 20% was donated by Filia Chen, and the remaining 10% was donated by friends in the two circles.
In other words, although the Chenfei Charitable Fund is a public charity fund, it has never solicited donations from the public. Most of the money was taken out of Lu Chen's own pocket!
The most important thing is that Lu Chen has only made his debut for more than three years. He has spent so much money, all of which he earned through hard work. In terms of attitude towards charity, who can compare?
Now some people actually think that Lu Chen should get more money, which is simply ridiculous!
In this world, there are many people who "hate the rich", but in fact, most of the people who "hate the rich" hate those who are unkind because of their wealth, rather than those who get rich through hard work and talent.
Therefore, this kind of incitement and provocation with ulterior motives has no market on the Internet. Even if there are some trolls jumping up and down, they will soon be silenced by the saliva of Lu Chen's fans.
Others expressed regret because the crowdfunding website was founded by Lu Chen. Now that it is listed on Nasdaq, he only holds 10% of the shares, which feels like making wedding clothes for others.
This statement is quite popular among netizens who are paying attention to this matter, including Lu Chen's fans. Think about it, if Lu Chen had not sold so many shares and now held 50%, he would have a net worth of more than 10 billion!
He suffered a big loss!
However, people who really understand the creation, development and listing process of crowdfunding websites, as well as many people in the industry, sneer at this completely amateurish statement.
In the development process of the Internet, it is normal for the shares held by the founders to be continuously diluted, and it is also an indispensable process on the road to listing. If Lu Chen really holds 50% or more of the shares of the crowdfunding network, then
It is impossible for a crowdfunding website to succeed in its IPO.
The most important thing is that the core of Lu Chen's career has always been in the entertainment industry. When he established the crowdfunding network, it was more of a fun investment. Now he can retain 10% of the shares, which is already rare.
Therefore, Lu Chen did not suffer at all. It should be said that his original investment received a hundredfold return!
The fierce public opinion once again pushed Lu Chen to the forefront.
Lu Chen has remained silent on this, and has not even updated his blog. He declined interviews from many heavyweight media and spent all his time on work.
The filming of "My Love from the Star" has been officially completed. Post-production, dubbing, music and other tasks have already made him so busy that he can't even care about the rights and wrongs of the outside world.
It is not a good thing to be in the limelight too much, and it is necessary to cool down appropriately.
However, what he didn't expect was that an American media would come to join in the fun at this time.
On December 4, the American "Times" magazine launched its latest issue, and the cover character was Lu Chen!
Once again caused a sensation in the country!
This is the first time that this famous magazine, which has widespread influence around the world, has published a photo of a Chinese star on the cover.
In the past, four celebrities from China, Hong Kong and Taiwan have appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, but without exception they were on the cover of the Asian edition.
So Lu Chen is the first to receive such treatment!
In the cover introduction of Time Magazine, this world-renowned magazine praised Lu Chen's talents and achievements in Chinese pop music and film and television, reviewed the sensational incident of flight ud725 in the United States, and even specifically mentioned Lu Chen's song "
lethergo", and then elaborated on Lu Chen's relationship with the crowdfunding network that had just been listed on Nasdaq, and also talked about Lu Chen's contribution to charity.
At the end of the article, the editor of "Times" called Lu Chen "an outstanding representative of the young generation in Asia" and "a new generation leader in the Chinese entertainment industry"!——
