Chapter 92 Listing
One night before the listing, Luo Nianzhong hosted a banquet for the Far East Group's road show team.

Although in the past two months, this team has hardly had a good night's sleep. They have been working continuously. The most terrible thing is the jet lag problem.

Today they are in North America, tomorrow they may be in Europe, and the day after tomorrow they may be in Asia. You can imagine how exhausted their bodies are.

But correspondingly, their spirits are still in a state of excitement.

After all, they are also vested interests. The more successful the listing of Honor Games is, the greater their interests will be.

Luxury houses, luxury cars, and even yachts are no longer dreams.

As Liang Jiadong received the most shares in the Honor IPO, some media have long pinned his reputation as the working emperor of Hong Kong Island on his head.

Not to mention the high salary, as the CEO of Honor Technology, the employee who has contributed the most to Honor games will receive shares worth tens of millions of dollars.

Not to mention those managers, many small bosses are drooling with envy.

After having a meal, Luo Nianzhong did not arrange any more activities, but asked them to go back to the hotel to rest.

As the boss, he did not go back to his mansion in Manhattan, but chose to stay in the hotel like them.

After a quiet night, at seven o'clock in the morning, the sky outside was still hazy. Luo Nianzhong and the entire team had washed up and were ready to go.

Luo Nianzhong saw several panda eyes while having breakfast in the restaurant. It didn't take much to know that these Honor Technology executives must have been so excited that they stayed up all night.

When talking about stocks, listings, and finance, one name cannot be avoided, and that is Wall Street.

As the world's largest financial center, Wall Street has been in recession in the past few years, making even the angry bull look a little eclipsed.

But today is obviously different from the past. A large number of investors came from all directions, and there were even many tourists, all wanting to see what is known as the greatest money transaction in history.

Some media reported that buying shares of Honor Games is equivalent to putting money on the accelerator, waiting for it to soar into the sky.

Although this is a bit exaggerated, there is definitely no problem with appreciation.

Before nine o'clock, Luo Nianzhong arrived in a luxury car at the Nasdaq Stock Exchange, which is also the latest exchange to be established in the beautiful country.

Nasdaq was established in 1971. Its trading content mainly focused on new technologies and semiconductor-related industries, and later developed into a major trading venue for high-tech and the Internet.

It may be related to the listed companies he mainly undertook. Nasdaq was also the world's first electronic securities trading market, allowing drawers to trade by phone. Later, it was the first trading market to allow Internet trading.

It's almost winter now, and Nasdaq has already implemented winter time. The market opens later at 9:30, but closes very early, at 4 o'clock sharp.

When a company goes public, there is a bell-ringing ceremony, which means ringing the opening bell, usually ten minutes before the market opens.

The Honor Game is no exception. The bell ringing time is set at nine twenty, and the exchange has set up a well-arranged stage very early.

Because there was still some time, as soon as Luo Nianzhong got off the bus, Baldwin, the chairman of Nasdaq, came to him with an old man.

"Mr. Luo, let me introduce to you. This is Stanwell from the California Teachers' Retirement Fund. I'm here to get to know you."

Baldwin looked high-spirited. In addition to being a big day for the Glory game, today can also be said to be a day when Baldwin's glory shines.

Because under his leadership, Nasdaq has ushered in a new appearance. Everyone knows that Honor Games will definitely become the second-highest market value on Nasdaq after IBM. This can be said to be his of credit.

Not to mention other exchanges in the United States, even London and Tokyo fought for the listing of the Honor game.

On the contrary, on Hong Kong Island, as a local enterprise, the Hong Kong government has not made any statement, and it is not known whether it has received any information or instructions.

In the end, Luo Nianzhong chose Nasdaq.

Nothing else, I just came here based on money, and the arcade machine will no longer work in the future, and the trap is also a trap for the money of beautiful Chinese people.

"Hello Mr. Luo, I didn't expect you to have such a career at such a young age. When I was your age, I was drinking and picking up girls every day."

Stanwell was full of compliments as soon as he came up, which made Luo Nianzhong more certain about the purpose of his trip.

Sure enough, after some small talk, Stanwell said, "I wonder, can Mr. Luo transfer part of his shares to the California Teachers' Pension Fund?"

"Can". Luo Nianzhong agreed very simply, and it was beyond Stanwell's expectations.

For a moment, Stanwell felt that this was meant to trick him, but after thinking about it, he put this absurd idea behind him.

The reason why they agreed so simply was not because the California State Teachers' Retirement Fund was the second largest fund in the United States, but because they had too many good things in their hands, and what Luo Nianzhong wanted.

For these funds, their top investment goals are safety, stability, and value preservation.

Therefore, things like oil and insurance will be their first choice. Then there are some companies that they think are stable and can allow them to recover their costs even if they go bankrupt, such as IBM and the current Honor game.

So Luo Nianzhong chose to sell such a good one, but he would not sell it to the other party at the original price.

"$5, up to 5% stake."

This is the condition Luo Nianzhong offered to the other party, and he also believes that the other party will definitely agree, because this is already a great deal of face to the other party. As he expected, Stanwell showed a grateful expression, stretched out his right hand and shook it heavily with Luo Nianzhong.

"I'm so grateful to Mr. Luo. California Retirement Foundation will remember this kindness."

Wall Street still underestimates Honor’s ability to steal money. Three months ago, Wall Street analyzed that Honor’s gaming profits this year would be between 13 billion and 14 billion. But now the profit of Honor Games has reached 13.1 billion.

Then comes Christmas and New Year, with profits reaching at least $15 billion.

The revenue from Gameboy game cartridges alone exceeds 300 million US dollars. After this wave of climax, the turnover will definitely fall sharply.

According to Luo Nianzhong’s quotation, 5% is US$ million. The annual dividend is about million. In less than ten years, the dividend money alone can almost repay the capital. This does not include the value of the equity itself. It is strange that Stavel disagrees.

Of course, there won’t be so many this year.

It was this price-to-earnings ratio that made Stanwell hit a wall on Wall Street and found Luo Nianzhong through connections.

A verbal agreement was reached with Stanwell, and time was almost up.

“Gentlemen and ladies, thank you very much for taking time out of your busy schedule to attend the launch ceremony of Honor Games, which is affiliated with.

Finally, what I want to say is that for all investors who choose Honor Games, it will become one of the proudest investments in your life."

On the stage, Liang Jiadong, the president of Honor Games, began to deliver a speech.

He talked about the development, goals, and spirit of the Honor game, etc., which attracted constant applause from the audience.

After the crisp ringing of "pound", all the media at the scene pointed their equipment at Liang Jiadong, who was under the weight of the hammer. Countless flash lights flashed, making people unable to open their eyes.

The ribbons falling from the sky and the warm applause and cheers from all around marked the beginning of a new day of trading on Nasdaq.

Luo Nianzhong and Honor's shareholders were all invited into a VIP room, where the electronic screen of the trading floor could be clearly seen through the glass.

$4.5, $4.6, $4.7, $5, $5.2, $5.5. Nearly two hours have passed, and no share has been sold. All the people who bought the stocks by lottery are obviously still dissatisfied with the current stock price. They think the stock price can still rise.

Compared to Luo Nianzhong who remained calm, several underwriting brokers were obviously much more nervous.

Because no matter what the price is, it has nothing to do with the Honor game.

The launch price of Honor Games is US$4.5, and this money has already been credited to Honor Games’ accounts.

What the issue price really affects are the investors who buy the new shares from several major underwriting brokers.

The higher the stock price, the more difference they make, and the more they trust the brokers who bring them immediate benefits. Through this, the brokers maintain important customers and make a lot of money.

Looking at the rising prices, the people in the VIP room waited patiently. Some people even opened champagne and planned to celebrate in advance.

"3000 lots sold, quoted price is $6.7 per share."

Someone yelled, attracting everyone's attention, followed by excitement and cheers.

One lot of 6.7 shares, priced at 200 US dollars per share, the transaction amount reached more than million.

Not only the trading floor, but also everyone in the VIP room cheered.

The issue price was US$4.5. One transaction increased US$2.2 per share from the issue price, and the market value increased by 50%, and this is not the end.

This is undoubtedly a huge success for the launch of Honor Games. The next step is to see whether Honor Games can break through the market value of 15 billion US dollars and hit a higher market value.

At present, all the listed companies in the beautiful country have a combined market value of more than 10 billion, but only eight companies. Honor Games has become the ninth company, and it has jumped to the third place in market value.

Ranking in front of Honor Games is IBM with a market value of 290 billion US dollars and Exxon Mobil with a market value of more than 128 billion US dollars. The remaining billion market value companies with the highest market value are Bell with a market value of billion US dollars, which has been surpassed by Honor Games.

This is now. Half a year from now, the current market value of Honor Games may not even be in the top ten.

By then, the United States' economy began to emerge from the Great Stagflation. Luo Nianzhong remembered that the market value of General Electric, which ranked tenth in 1980, was more than 140 billion U.S. dollars. After that, Welch in history began to lead this company into an era of rapid growth.

Now without Welch, I don’t know if General Electric can still be the same as it was in history.

"Congratulations, Mr. Luo, you have created a great company." Standing next to him, Daisuke Aoki, who came here specially, raised a glass of congratulations.

"Same joy, as one of the shareholders of Honor Games, didn't Mr. Aoki also share in its success?" Luo Nianzhong's words made both of them laugh.

When the market closed, Honor Games' share price reached US$7.3 per share. Unfortunately, it did not exceed the market value of billion.

However, this did not dampen everyone's excitement, because they knew that this would happen sooner or later.

Although the increase has slowed down, Honor Games' stock was on an upward trend before the market closed.

Maybe tomorrow, this historic moment will come.
