The two news announced by Li Mu became the two hottest news on Wall Street tonight.

He made a special trip to the United States to ring the bell with Larry Page, and before Google rang the bell, he suddenly wanted to set up a joint venture with Google, which in itself is a kind of support for Google;

And he himself has to imitate Buffett and auction off his own dinner. Although Li Mu has not officially become the world's richest man, everyone knows that he is the uncrowned king of the global business field today.

Once Muye Technology is listed and its market value is clear, Li Mu will naturally be crowned the world's richest man, and his wealth will be far behind the others on the rich list.

As the quasi-richest man in the world, he suddenly wants to auction his dinner. Wall Street elites don't have to think about it and know that this dinner will be extremely popular.

Even that night, someone said that they were willing to pay one million dollars to bid for Li Mu's dinner, and they were determined to win, but they were quickly ridiculed by the crowd, because many people felt that one million dollars was not enough.

However, the ones who benefited the most from Li Mu's two news were the brokerages and individuals who had already obtained the shares issued by Google in advance.

Google's IPO, issued a total of 50 million shares, the issue price of the stock is 80 US dollars, these 50 million shares have long been sold out through the underwriters.

Even, Google has a proud record, his IPO, oversubscribed fifteen times.

That is to say, although Google intends to raise four billion US dollars, the amount of funds willing to subscribe for Google shares in the market has reached a huge amount of 60 billion US dollars.

However, this is the same as investing in new stocks in China. Those who can subscribe and get them are only a very small part of the subscribed group.

After the bell rings tomorrow, Google will be officially listed for trading, and the 50 million shares will begin to circulate.

Once the market is more optimistic about Google's prospects, the 50 million shares in circulation will be snapped up by countless people. As long as someone grabs it, the stock price will definitely rise.

In the next six months, these 50 million shares will become all tradable shares of Google, and the original shareholders' shares will be locked during these six months and cannot be reduced.

In addition, Larry Page, on behalf of the original Google shareholder, and Li Mu, on behalf of Makino Technology, both pledged to Nasdaq not to reduce their holdings in the next two years, which means that in the next two years, Google's tradable shares will not grow much.

Under this premise, Google's stock price will definitely rise strongly, and in the next year or two, it is very suitable for long-term holding.

Many brokerages and individuals who bought Google stocks in advance were so excited that they could not sleep, and each planned their own holding plans.

As for the 4 billion dollars in exchange for Google's 50 million shares, 3 billion of which will be used for Google's own development, and 1 billion will be used to subsidize the shareholders of the wash shares.

In the process, Muye Technology got 300 million US dollars in cash, but the 300 million US dollars is a huge loss as a whole, because it is possible that as soon as the market opens tomorrow, Google's stock will directly break through the price of 100 US dollars, or even higher.

There is no price limit for US stocks, only a circuit breaker mechanism. Some stocks can rise by more than 200 on the first day of listing, and the circuit breaker alone will take seven or eight times.

Whether Google can perform a miracle depends on its performance after the bell rings tomorrow.

...

Early the next morning, Li Mu put on his formal clothes, and under the guidance of the security staff, he left the hotel room and went straight to the lobby.

Today, there are more than a dozen security personnel that Google invited to Li Mu just around Li Mu and responsible for vigilance and security.

The reason why there are so many people and such a big posture is because it is said that when Google rang the bell today, 80% of the reporters in New York went to the Nasdaq to stay, and the remaining 20% ​​were in the hotel where Li Mu was staying, waiting to capture Li Mu's photos. photo.

At this time, the hotel lobby was full of people. If it weren't for the security staff of more than a dozen security companies, the local New York police, and Wang Yuenlang, three people,

It is estimated that it will take twenty minutes to walk through the hotel lobby alone.

Fortunately, there was a security team composed of more than 20 people. These strong security personnel almost pushed the crowd, creating a vacuum for Li Mu.

The shutter sound of the surrounding cameras continued, and many media reporters were shouting various questions at Li Mu, hoping to get a response from Li Mu.

As Li Mu walked, he kept nodding to the surrounding reporters, but did not answer any questions.

At this time, once you answer the question, even if you just answer whether you have eaten breakfast, it is estimated that you will not be able to walk away smoothly.

At the door, a huge fleet is ready.

Li Mu's safety is very high here, and the New York police have also actively participated in the work of protecting Li Mu's safety. They have dispatched a large number of police cars and police officers, hoping to ensure that Li Mu will not have any accidents in New York.

Otherwise, with his influence around the world, the NYPD will lose face.

Li Mu took Li Ziwei to the extended Cadillac, and together with the accompanying motorcade, they headed for the Nasdaq exchange.

The convoy has ten vehicles of its own. In addition, there are four or five police cars escorted, and as many as 20 police motorcycles to clear the way and guard, and the lineup is particularly strong.

Larry Page and the top executives of Google were all waiting in line at the entrance of Nasdaq at this time, and Nasdaq Chairman David Ball also came out to greet Li Mu in person.

At the entrance of Nasdaq, there is a huge Google letter g, which is a memorial specially prepared by Nasdaq for Google, which represents the official attention of Nasdaq to Google.

The convoy stopped at the entrance of Nasdaq, and before a large number of reporters could come forward, they were forcibly stopped by security personnel.

After Li Mu got out of the car, Larry Page and David Bauer came forward to meet him.

David Bauer, who is in his fifties this year, rarely greets CEOs of listed companies in person, but the arrival of Li Mu today made him choose to walk out without hesitation and gave Li Mu the highest courtesy.

Li Mu greeted the two of them, and David Bauer personally brought Li Mu and everyone from Google to the VIP room of Nasdaq.

Today's bell ringing ceremony is very simple. At nine o'clock, Larry Page, as Google's CEO, will give a short speech. David Ball, as the head of Nasdaq, will also deliver a congratulatory speech. As a special guest, Li Mu will also give a speech. Congratulatory speech.

At 9:30, Li Mu and Larry Page jointly pressed the button to ring the bell. At that time, the bell rang and Google was officially listed for trading.

The bell ringing scene has now been occupied by reporters, enthusiastic citizens and investors. It can be said that this is a grand event that NASDAQ has not seen in more than ten years. There has never been a company IPO that can attract the attention of Google so much attention.

And among these attentions, at least half of them came to Li Mu.

At nine o'clock, the staff of Nasdaq gave a speech on the stage. After a brief opening speech, they invited Google CEO Larry Page to the stage.

Larry Page looked extremely nervous, and took several deep breaths to adjust his state before going on stage.

As he stood in front of the microphone, he took out his prepared manuscript and said, "It is an honor to stand here on behalf of Google, which is the end of Google's previous journey and the beginning of Google's next journey."

"In 1998, when I met Sergey Brin, we decided to do something meaningful based on the Internet world at that time, so we made the Google search engine, which was born to greatly facilitate the Internet Users search and discover all kinds of information in the Internet world, which has also changed the model and pattern of the Internet industry to a large extent;"

"In 1999, we were profitable and pioneered many unique technologies in search;"

"From 2000 to 2002, we developed rapidly, and Google became the website that more and more Internet users open every day."

"In 2003, we reached a strategic cooperation with Muye Technology. With the help of Muye Technology's global influence, our users are also further improving;"

"We have no intention of changing the world, but the world has changed for the better because of us. This is the most gratifying and proud thing for me and the entire Google team;"

"Now, I stand here on behalf of all Google employees to prepare for Google's upcoming IPO. Thank you to all the friends who supported Google during this process. Please also believe in us. In the future, we will continue to work hard to move forward. , to create a better Google for the world!"

Speaking of which, the audience continued to applaud, and Larry Page added: "Here, I would also like to solemnly thank Mr. Li Mu, chairman of Muye Technology, for coming from China to participate in the bell ringing ceremony of Google's listing! "

The reporters looked for Li Mu everywhere, but Li Mu was still watching the live broadcast in the VIP lounge at this time, waiting for David Bauer to speak, and then it was time to appear by himself.

David Bauer's speech was relatively brief and more stereotyped. It was nothing more than saying that he recognized Google first, and then represented Nasdaq to welcome Google. At the same time, he did not forget to praise Nasdaq's current status. process status.

After he finished speaking, Li Mu also came out of the lounge and came to the passage before the stage.

At this time, David Ball said: "Next, let us welcome Mr. Li Mu from China with the warmest applause, he will give a congratulatory speech for Google, and then he will ring Google's listing with Larry Page. bells!"

When I heard that Li Mu was going to give a speech, the audience burst into applause.

A large part of the reason why so many reporters came was because of Li Mu.

Otherwise, Google’s listing will ring the bell. At most, the financial media will come to take some material and go back to write a press release.

The appearance of Li Mu made people in the United States pay close attention to his every move on Nasdaq, so the major media did not want to miss this opportunity and waited to shoot some materials and news about Li Mu.

Li Mu, who was wearing a black suit, walked onto the stage unhurriedly. At this time, the entire Nasdaq hall was already full of people.

Everyone is looking forward to the content of his speech, especially those Google investors. They know that Li Mu has the ability to turn corruption into magic, so they firmly believe that this speech will benefit Google more!
