Chapter 765 Carnival! (1/2)

20 million shares were sold out that day.

The next day, the Shuguang City Stock Exchange hall opened for trading of circulating stocks. The big screen in the hall updated the buy and sell orders and transaction prices of Baiyue Company's stock in real time.

Since only one stock was listed on the entire exchange, Baiyue Company almost passively became the focus of everyone's attention.

Looking at the transaction prices that hit new highs continuously, the enthusiasm of investors was irrational for a time, causing the circuit breaker mechanism of transactions to be triggered several times, and the trading suspension time was even longer than the trading time.

In the corner of the hall, residents from Ideal City widened their eyes in surprise as they looked at the continuously rising prices, with expressions of disbelief written on their faces.

He is the representative of the organization that provides guidance for Baiyue Company to go public.

Although after studying the business of Baiyue Company, he had expected the skyrocketing price after the public offering, he did not expect that the scene would be so exaggerated.

In Ideal City, there has never been a stock that doubled after listing.

If that happens, it only shows that the auditors were derelict in their duties and the issue price was set too low!

However, he can be sure that the current situation of Baiyue Company is not due to his lack of professionalism. Although the price-earnings ratio of 20 times is a bit low for such a high-growth company, it is far from being so low as to be so exaggerated.

Another explanation——

Investors in Dawn City are going crazy!

"...If I had known I would have applied for an ID card when I came here to travel here at the beginning of the year." The agency representative couldn't help sighing.

The crazy price made him feel itchy. Unfortunately, without an ID card, he could only look at it, but he couldn't get rid of it.

Standing next to him was an expert from Camp 101 and one of the designers of the trading rules of the Dawn City Stock Exchange.

Hearing the emotion from the agency representative, the expert said with a smile.

"You make a lot of money, right? Are you still thinking about what ordinary people have in their pockets?"

"It's different." The agency representative shook his head. "Can the money earned from working and the money earned for free be the same?"

After a pause, he couldn't help but say.

"Speaking of which, do you really not consider opening up purchase qualification restrictions? I bet that there will be countless investors pouring in with money in Ideal City. The money you can raise will be several times! Or even dozens of times!"

In fact, compared to Dawn City, Ideal City is a more suitable place for Baiyue to go public. Not only is the capital there more vast, but the resources are also far richer than here.

The expert from Camp 101 smiled lightly.

"Currency is just a tool, and money is just a number. Our managers said that we have completed the distribution of social productivity through a series of means, and now the profits generated must also be distributed to those who create wealth, that is, ordinary citizens of the alliance. "

“The administrator’s instruction is that when the situation is right, we will open investors outside the alliance to participate in transactions, but it must be when the rules of Dawn City Exchange have matured and the funds have formed a sufficient scale... This is obviously not now.”

The agency representative shook his head regretfully and sighed.

"By then, I'm afraid the prices will have skyrocketed, and the institutions in Ideal City are not fools. They won't come over to take over."

The experts from Camp 101 nodded and agreed with his statement, but also put forward different opinions.

"But if you are brought in now, our investors will be wiped out by you, and all the wealth they create will go into your pockets, and this is what our managers do not want to see. There is no such thing in this world To get the best of both worlds, we can make countless assumptions, but we can only choose one of them.”

"Understood," the agency representative nodded, looked at the rising number with jealousy, and said with regret, "I hope you can prepare faster..."

In fact, the most coveted people are not the residents from Ideal City, but the traders from other areas in the wasteland.

Especially the merchants from the Bugla Free State in the north, their eyes were filled with green light, and they barely had the word envy written on their faces.

They even know better than the residents of Shuguang City themselves about the business operated by Baiyue Company!

This huge giant enterprise is backed by two giant industrial bases. It not only controls the rich raw material production base of Baiyue Province, but also owns the rich mineral deposits of Borneo Province. Its business scope covers three-thirds of the world. A Middle-earth continent!

Not only that, hundreds of alliance companies, including Niu Ma Group, Jushi Military, Gojing Technology, Factory 81, etc., have also opened up overseas markets with this behemoth that is going global.

Now this giant enterprise has also taken advantage of the alliance, and its influence is continuing to expand as the alliance's influence increases!

Now you only need to move your fingers to fill out the form to become a shareholder of this giant company!

Not to mention the issue price of 10 silver coins.

Even at the issue price of 100 silver coins, they would open their pockets and pay without hesitation!

After all, if it were in Bugra, such an excellent company would never be underestimated like this, at least the issue price would be hundreds of thousands of cloth dollars!

The powerful Firestone Corporation will take the first bite of the meat, their captive mittens will take the second, and the manipulated auditors and regulators will give its financial reports a green light so they can turn their shit into a cake. The shape is brought to the table in the name of chocolate, and when ordinary people can buy it, it will only be given to the big guys, and only the foam tubes of beer can be drunk to the full.

As for truly high-quality assets, they will find a way to package them in Ideal City and sell them through backdoor transactions in exchange for Cr. Only then will they do some serious accounting.

After all, Ideal City is not easy to fool, and the cost of bribing the council is too high, so high that the entire Ideal City has to be bought... That is too unrealistic.

However, envy is envy. They are traveling all year round and only have the alliance's bank card, but not the card that proves their identity.

Even if there are channels for investment immigration, it is too late to do so now...

So I can only watch.

A businessman from Bugla couldn't help but muttered sourly.

"Selling it so cheaply...isn't just trying to win people's hearts."

"Indeed," another salesperson also murmured, "Ten silver coins...you can buy one share after working for one hour. They might as well just give the company to the poor."

The mercenary next to him nodded with deep understanding, his clear pupils filled with the light of great wisdom and foolishness.

"Indeed, paying dividends to everyone means no dividends. If they keep playing like this, sooner or later they will be like us...Dividends cannot even catch up to a fraction of inflation."

At the same time, at the entrance of the exchange, several players wearing blue jackets also looked at the jumping numbers on the screen, with expressions of joy on their faces.

"Good guy! Twenty silver?!"

"Doubled!!!"

"Mom..."

"Hey, it would be great if I were an NPC."

"The soul traveling game is okay."

"Come on, you're such a slut, can you really survive two episodes if you wear it in the game?"

"Gan! Can't I just be a little more modest?"

"Is there a possibility that there are soul piercers or rebirthers hidden among the NPCs?"

Listening to the nonsense of the newbies, Boring Tiger made a joke with a smile.

"Then the guy has read the script in advance, so is it right to sit here and buy Baiyue shares now?"

Makabazi laughed loudly and said: "Hahahaha, it's okay to suddenly start daydreaming."

They are not very interested in Baiyue Company's stocks, and they are not short of money.

Just when Baiyue Company went to the south to open up wasteland, they had already upgraded all planting-related occupations to LV9, and bought a large piece of land in the north of Xizhou City to start a large farm.

Who knows, one day, their own farm will be listed here. Wouldn't that be much better than buying other people's stocks?

"Is it interesting for you to watch here? You can't buy it?" Looking at the players crowded at the door, Teng Teng couldn't help but complain in a low voice.

A newbie said with a playful smile.

"I understand the truth, but it's so cool to watch."

At this moment, a cry of surprise came from the door.

"Thirty silver coins!!!"

Hearing this sound, the man turned his head back with a whoosh and cheered with everyone.

“Awesome!!”

"Nice job!!"

"Good shot! Bah - so high!!"

Teng Teng couldn't help but hold his forehead and muttered something in a low voice.

"These guys have gone crazy..."

Crow Crow: "emmm... Actually, it's not normal."

Teng Teng: "Uh, that's right..."

…

While the stock exchange in Dawn City was bustling with activity, the official website of the other world was also unusually busy.

On the same day that Baiyue Company was listed, the China Banking Exchange opened a new sub-page - "Share and Equity Assets Transaction Page" and included the newly listed Baiyue Company in it.

Prior to this, although the Banking Exchange could also trade in-game assets, buy and sell equity, etc., it did not classify the assets in detail.

After the new sub-page goes online, it undoubtedly releases a signal that the game official intends to rectify the virtual asset trading market.

The shares of Baiyue Company that have obtained the listing number can only be traded with the silver coins officially designated by the game. They cannot be purchased directly using real currency or other forms of currency. All transaction orders are conducted publicly and can only be transferred. carried out in the form.

In other words, Baiyue Company cannot raise funds on the bank exchange. Players can only cash out from other players through their personal trading behaviors.

After all, there are a large number of silver coins piled up on the Banking Exchange, which are essentially "game coins" distributed by Chu Guang to players. There is a certain degree of water in the value. If Baiyue Company is allowed to raise funds there, it will be equivalent to squeezing him out of the market. The foam that was "cancelled" in the reservoir was recovered again.

However, if players are prohibited from conducting equity transactions, listing will lose its meaning.

So Chu Guang came up with this compromise method. The equity held by the NPC is circulated on the Shuguang City Exchange, and the equity held by the players is circulated on the Bank Exchange. The two parties do not interfere with each other.

Baiyue Company's collective financing activities can only be carried out on the Shuguang City Exchange.

In this way, it can be ensured that the money flowing into the production and operation links on a large scale is not the bubble that has been "inflated and squeezed out", but the profits actually generated by the alliance society in the production and operation activities.

In the future, Chu Guang will consider gradually relaxing this restriction, but it is still too early for an alliance where "players can earn a day's income for ordinary people by swiping a monster". That is tantamount to allowing players to use their own privileges to plunder the alliance. Citizen Wealth.

No matter how you look at it, the money and green light he has given to the players are enough. With their full wings, they should expand outward and open up a wider wasteland instead of harvesting their own people.

As it turns out, Chu Guang's "preparing for a rainy day" was not without reason.

Shortly after the sub-page of the Silver Exchange was launched, the share price of Baiyue Company soared to 200 silver coins per share!

During the same period, the average transaction price of the Shuguang City Exchange only rose to 37 silver coins.

Although there is no such thing as "issue price" in the Silver Exchange, after all, there is only trading but no issuance, but such an outrageous gap still silenced both buyers and sellers.

The scene was quite weird. There were a lot of buy and sell orders on the market, but no one traded. There was obviously no circuit breaker mechanism, but the transaction volume was 0 for several minutes.

This picture seemed to be when the Silver Exchange had just come out and the auction function had not yet been launched.

Tail: "Giao! 200 silver coins... Si! Help me calculate how much money we have!Σ(ﾟДﾟ;)"

Sisi: "Ah, Tail, you will be hated if you tell me. But it is a bit absurd to say that it has risen so high... I don't know who is buying it."

Quit smoking: "Actually, I am more curious about who is selling it. Isn't it nice to hold on to it? (Covering face)"

Tail: "Hehe, Tail secretly sold a little when it was around 50. (~︶~)"

Lightning King Professor Yang: "Good guy, fifty?! That's a loss!"

④Who knows: "It is indeed sold cheaply. I am afraid that those listed on the Dawn City Exchange will rise to 50 in two months."

Tail: "Let's make money together. Tail still has several zeros anyway. (*/ω*)"

Working Warrior: "Damn, careless. T.T"

Gap Valley Mole on the Run: "MMP, damn Fang Chang, if the price keeps rising like this, this bastard's net worth can buy the entire earth!"

Fang Chang: "Tsk, I think you are not a rookie, why are you saying such stupid things, can valuation be used as money? (side eye)"

Canyon Mole on the Run: "I don't care! Planner, if you don't cut the price, this game will be unplayable!! T.T"

Ye Shi: "Good guy, it's okay to be the thief crying, I almost forgot that you also invested, cut this guy first!"

Irena: "I advise you not to shout, if you shout again, A Guang will really cut it. (Funny)"

Elf King Fugui: "A Guang: You guys have made me suffer. (Funny)"

Lightning Mage Professor Yang: "Hey, to be honest, I am worried about you. In the game, there are 37 silver coins per share, and the official One share online costs 200 silver. With such a large arbitrage space, if you can sell the NPC's shares on the official website, you can make money without doing anything!"

Ye Shi: "Even you can think of this problem, do you think A Guang can't think of it? (Funny)"

Mole on the run in the canyon: "Go to bed, the planner has already blocked this bug. NPCs and players can't transfer equity at all. They can only change the equity ratio through financing."

Professor Yang, the King of Thunder and Lightning: "Fuck, then aren't all the shares you hold non-tradable shares? !"

Fang Chang: "To be precise, it is 'restricted tradable shares'. Financing through public offerings can sell shares to NPCs. Using the working capital of Baiyue Company to repurchase tradable shares and cancel them is equivalent to purchasing stocks from NPCs, but these operations are completed in an integrated manner. . "

"In addition, the next issuance plan is also 8% of the shares, and the time is tentatively scheduled after the next quarter's financial report or dividend plan is released. I estimate that when the social shareholding reaches a certain proportion, players will be allowed to participate in the trading activities of the Dawn City Exchange. After all, it is not fair to NPCs to open players to free trading at this stage. Players are generally too rich. "

Professor Yang, the King of Thunder and Lightning: "Do you have too much money and have nowhere to spend it? You are still worrying about the gap between the rich and the poor of NPCs. (Laughing and crying)"

Fang Chang: "After all, this is a cultivation game. It is also very fulfilling for us to see the alliance become stronger. (Funny)"

Professor Yang, the King of Thunder and Lightning: "6..."

Riding a donkey to go to the market: "In fact, there is a very obvious loophole in this set of rules. According to this gameplay, the shareholding ratio of players will continue to be diluted. After all, 'repurchase of equity cancellation' is definitely much more difficult than 'financing'. In the overall trend, equity will definitely flow from players to NPCs. "

Ye Shi: "How do you know that this is a loophole, not a deliberate design by the planner? (Funny)"

Professor Yang, the King of Thunder and Lightning: "Aren't you in a hurry? (Laughing and crying)"

Fang Chang: "Be content. If you play a few more games, you will know that the measures taken by A Guang to maintain the stability of the game's economic system are already quite mild. If you change the operator, there is no need to beat around the bush to reason with you. Just change your profit coefficient directly. "

WC really has mosquitoes: "Anton Xing, who cut the ordinary account's profit into a negative number, gave a thumbs up. (Funny)"

Riding a donkey to go to the market: "...6."

...

The listing of Baiyue Company was just a small episode for the residents of Shuguang City.

If it weren't for the joke in the "Goblin Observer", most people might not have lined up until a few days later when Baiyue Company rose to 40 silver per share.

The lobby of the Highway Town Hotel.

Looking at the newspaper in his hand, Zhou Nan shook his head and sighed with an unsatisfied look.

"It's a pity that each person is limited to purchasing 100,000 shares. I really hope the upper limit is 1 million... Do you know? The thing I regret most in my life is that I chose to go business instead of opening that steel plant with you. "

In just a few days, the value of the 100,000 shares he held quadrupled!

Worth 4 million silver coins!

Although market value is not money, he believes that if he takes out these 100,000 shares and hangs them on the exchange, it will take less than a day to complete the transaction.

There are still many rich people in Dawn City, such as the person sitting opposite him.

He bets that if he is willing to sell, this guy will definitely take action without hesitation!

Looking at his drinking companions sighing there, Sun Shiqi smiled.

"It's not too late to regret it now. Maybe my steel plant will be listed on the market in a few months."

"Did you hear something?" Zhou Nan's heart moved and she looked at him eagerly.

After taking a sip of beer, Sun Shiqi glanced around and saw that no one was paying attention, and said softly.

"You don't have to listen to rumors about this. If Baiyue Company is the only one approved for listing, why would the Alliance set up an exchange specifically in Shuguang City? I estimate that it is not just Baiyue Company, but also Niuma Group and Factory 81, which are collectively controlled by Shelter. The company will also transfer part of its equity to the public in the alliance.”

Even not only these giants that have started to snowball, but also some start-ups that lack funds can also receive support.

The best way is to let investors who invest in the former make money, and then use the temptation of more benefits to dig gold mines among a bunch of small enterprises.

If you want residents of the alliance to invest in Baiyue Company, you must first make them rich. And if you want them to invest in small and medium-sized enterprises with higher risks and room for growth, you must let them make money from sound investment projects.

He believes that it won't be long before the Dawn City Stock Exchange will moderately lower the market entry threshold.

Zhou Nan thought about it in his mind, and it seems that this is indeed the truth. If it is just to sell 8% of the stock, there is no need to open an exchange. In other words, there will be many opportunities in the future.

"It makes sense...hiss...when you said that, I suddenly felt that 40 silver coins was still too cheap. I had to buy some more." Zhou Nan said after thinking about it, and suddenly regretted on his face that he didn't buy more when it was cheaper before. , patronizing the little money that has increased happily.

Looking at his regretful look, Sun Shiqi laughed, picked up the wine glass and took a sip.

"Don't be too greedy. I told you there will be another chance in the future. You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry."

What his friend saw was that the stock price of Baiyue Company had quadrupled, but what he saw was the terrifying market value of Baiyue Company after the skyrocketing, which had reached an astonishing 25 billion silver coins!

What is the concept of 25 billion silver coins?

When he acquired the "Infinite Power Steel Factory" from Fred, he only spent 50 million chips, which could only be converted into silver coins at the exchange rate at the time for only 25 million.

Since he borrowed the money from a bank in Dawn City, he remembered this figure very clearly. It is no exaggeration to say that that acquisition was the starting point for his career to really take off!

At present, the Lidang Wuxian Steel Plant in Boulder City has restarted operations after completing the debt settlement, and is still the largest steel plant in Boulder City.

Assuming that Baiyue Company is really worth 25 billion silver coins, that steel plant is worth at least 1 billion or even 2 billion!

If Baiyue Company hadn't gone public, he wouldn't even know he was so rich.

By the way, how much is the Liszt Factory worth?

That guy recently won the bid for the power system of Golden Gallon Port. I heard that he has recently built an electric car factory. The valuation may be as high as 5 billion... No, 10 billion is possible. After all, 25 billion silver coins is obviously not Baiyue. The limits of the company.

With so many thoughts in his mind for a moment, Sun Shiqi, who was drinking beer, suddenly sighed with emotion.

"Actually, I'm both happy and scared at the same time..."

Zhou Nan, who was just calculating how much money he had "lost", looked up at him, was stunned for a moment and said with a smile.

"Are you still worried that Mr. Manager will cause trouble for you? I dare say that adult has forgotten you a long time ago."

Sun Shiqi shook his head and said.

"No, that's all in the past. That's what I'm thinking of. Do you remember the S coins?"

Zhou Nan: "Of course I remember. How could I forget such a big thing."

Sun Shiqi nodded, his eyes lost in memories, and his thoughts seemed to drift away with those memories.

"...The chips that rule this area have been operating stably for more than 150 years. Its designers include experts from the pre-war era and residents who came out of the shelter. However, just one small mistake ruined everything. I I still remember the guy who sold me the steel plant, and I occasionally buy him a drink.”

"Ah...you said that drunkard, I remember him." Zhou Nan thought of that person.

That guy would occasionally appear in the tavern on North Street of Shuguang City. He was a guy who never trimmed his appearance and was not nearsighted at all, but he wore a gold-rimmed monocle.

Taking a sip of the foamy beer, Sun Shiqi said leisurely.

"Stupidity will not destroy a person, but madness will... This is what I am most worried about. I am afraid that it will not move, and I am afraid that it will take one step too far and bring all of us into the ditch."

Zhou Nan thought for a while and lightly shrugged his shoulders.

"It is reasonable to worry, but I think there is no need to worry too much...after all, are you the alcoholic?"

Sun Shiqi: "That's not true."

"Right, you're not him, you're the one who wins..." Zhou Nan smiled and clinked glasses with his drinking buddy, and raised his eyebrows at him, "The lessons learned from Boulder City are harsh enough. I believe in our management." The person must know more deeply than you do. No offense, after all, you just picked up a steel plant, but he picked up the entire Boulder City."

"Haha, that's true." Sun Shiqi smiled and nodded, and the sadness in his heart suddenly disappeared again.

After all, the Alliance is different from Boulder City.

They absorbed not only the technology of Boulder City, but also the experience and lessons of those people.

The Workers' Union and the Daily Survivor are the best proof that the Alliance did not reject them because they were created by Boulder City, but instead brought them to the wasteland to flourish.

Since VM will not become a black card, what does he have to worry about?

For a moment, he suddenly felt that the workers' union that was always causing trouble for him was no longer so annoying.

Those people are sometimes a bit rude and a bit "greedy", but at least they are reasonable and legal.

Without that thing, he felt that his final end might not be more honorable than Fred and Vega.

The latter ran away at least, and I heard that he was living well in the Free State. The former did run away, but lost money on S coins due to greed, and all his wealth was reduced to zero overnight. That was really a miserable old man.

Of course, understanding is understanding, and he will not be lenient when it is time to fight for his own interests.

"Greed... yes, not just madness, but also greed. Greed and madness are taboos! I have to write it into the ancestral precepts." Sun Shiqi murmured to himself as he shook the foam in the wine glass.

Seeing his nervous look, Zhou Nan laughed and said.

"Do you know who your parents are? There is a bird's ancestral teaching."

After all, he has a family, and he recently brought the Alliance from Jinchuan Province.

Although this guy has never told his life experience, since he was born in Red River Town, he was probably a slave or the child of a slave in the mine there.

Of course, he didn't mean to look down on his friend, just like he had never concealed his origin as a serf.

"It's not important," Sun Shiqi coughed and said with a nonchalant smile, "It's not too late to start writing a family tree from now on...Although I was born in the wasteland, my next generation may not be. ”

Zhou Nan joked with a smile.

"Let's wait until you find a good man and start a family first."

Sun Shiqi laughed and confused the words.

"Hahaha, let's talk about it then."

The night is getting darker.

As a group of shelter residents joined in, the lively atmosphere in the lobby of the Highway Town Hotel reached its peak, and the sounds of people drinking and drinking could be heard endlessly.

I don't know if it was everyone's misunderstanding, but the beer tonight was particularly intoxicating. Even the aroma of the malt smelled of alcohol, and it just smelled very intoxicating.

A drunkard suddenly stood up and shouted at the top of his lungs.

“Praise the managers!”

That voice was recognized by countless people, and for a while, voices of praise arose one after another amidst people's laughter.

The Battlefield Atmosphere Team sitting in front of the bar smiled and put the wine glass close to the helmet. Just as he was about to drink, he found that the glass was empty and put it back awkwardly.

He is wearing a K-10 "Iron Wall" exoskeleton. Since there are a lot of Weirant people in Dawn City recently, he can only wear this fully protective armor when he comes here to drink.

To be honest, it's really inconvenient to drink while wearing this thing, especially if you drink too much.

Not long after he put down the wine glass, a petite figure came over with a tray and brought him a new glass.

Looking at Lisa with beads of sweat on her forehead, the warlord said a little embarrassed.

"Thanks."

Staring at the helmet with full eyes, Lisa smiled brightly at him and said in a very soft voice.

"You're welcome."

Looking at that charming face, Zhan Di felt somewhat embarrassed.

At this moment, a thick palm patted his shoulder, which startled him. He thought his identity was exposed, but when he looked back, he found that he was just an alcoholic who drank too much.

"Hey, brother in the blue coat, say thank you to me and our respected administrator, hiccup - guess what happened just now? In the blink of an eye, the 1,000 silver coins in my pocket turned into 4,000 silver coins! I've never been so rich!"

There was a sound of laughter coming from the side, which seemed to be the drunkard's friend.

Seeing that this guy was really drunk, Warfield helped him sit on a stool at the bar and said casually with a smile.

"Our respected Mr. Manager doesn't want to see you drink like this. Besides, he doesn't care about your thank you. He just hopes that next time you can't even afford to drink the swill, you won't curse him for not telling the ugly story before." , that’s not a place for you to gamble.”

"How could it be?" The man's eyes widened and he shouted, "He saved my life. I can dedicate my life to him! Thousands of silver coins can't buy me or change me. faith!”

Without taking his words to heart, Warfield just patted him on the shoulder, and then handed the water glass handed to him by Lisa to the guy.

"In that case, you must keep your word. Don't throw it away at any time, and don't sell it for the rest of your life. I don't know how much the dividends will be every year, but there is no problem in letting you soak in the wine vat."

The drunkard laughed loudly.

"Hahaha, don't worry, even if you kill me, I won't sell it! I will always be loyal to him! I will pass it on from generation to generation, to my son and my grandson!"

Looking at this guy who was drunk, the battlefield atmosphere team said with a smile.

"Yeah, that's best. You'll thank me later."
