Chapter 1092 Bing goes public
In the hazy night, a convoy of five Maybachs passed through the winding mountain road and entered the wealthy area in the middle of Xiangjiang.
This is not the first time Xu Liang has come to the Li family.
It can be regarded as a familiar road.
After getting off the car, he was quickly and grandly entered into the living room by the Li family and his son.
"Xu Sheng, congratulations. The Seibu Group has strong assets. Now that you are under your control, your career has taken a further step." Li Jiacheng said with a smile.
"Mr. Li is over-reputed. Although Seibu Group has strong assets, Japan Diameter failed to get out of the real estate asset bubble that year. Consumption was sluggish, and the department store industry and tourism industry were affected.
Coupled with the huge debt left by Yoshiaki Tsutsumi, if I have a choice, I really don’t want to acquire it. ”
Li Jiacheng: "With Xu Sheng's identity and status, if you don't want to acquire it, who else can force you?"
"It's not hard to do it, but sometimes I have to do it." Xu Liang didn't plan to say more. After all, his relationship with the Futian family was not easy to talk about.
"Mr. Li invited me here today, isn't it just for a meal?"
Li Jiacheng smiled and picked up the teapot and poured him a cup.
"Xu Sheng is a smart man, so I won't waste my time.
Yangtze River Group hopes to acquire Hongmeng’s 47.55% stake in Netcom for HK$32 billion in an all-cash transaction. ”
"Mr. Li, I mentioned last time that I am not short of funds."
"Really don't think about it?"
Xu Liang shook his head simply.
"What if we add Beijing Oriental Plaza?"
Xu Liang was a little surprised.
The Oriental Plaza project can be said to be the most valuable real estate project under the entire Li family.
The No. 1 Chang'an Avenue project is located opposite the Forbidden City. There is no better place in China than this location.
What's even more rare is that it covers an area of 100,000 square meters and has a total construction area of 800,000 square meters, which is huge.
The business format includes the 120,000-square-meter ‘Oriental New World’.
‘Oriental Economic and Trade City’ consists of 8 Grade A office buildings.
The ‘Oriental Palace Apartment’ consists of two luxury apartments.
and the five-star luxury hotel ‘Grand Hyatt Oriental’.
This is the top commercial complex in the country.
After opening, the revenue in just one year exceeded 3 billion Huaxia coins.
At present, the only two companies in the entire Taihua Group that can compare with him are the 'Pengcheng Taihua Century Plaza' and the newly opened Magic City 'Taihua Times Square'.
The former is located on Shenzhen Southeast Road and Wenjin South Road, Pengcheng CBD.
The latter is located in the core area of Pudong, next to Super Brand Plaza and the Oriental Pearl TV Tower.
They are all flagship projects of Taihua.
If it can win the Oriental Plaza, then Taihua will have its own flagship project in the core area of Beijing.
"Mr. Li is willing to sell Oriental Plaza to me?"
"I'm reluctant to part with you, but I'm even more reluctant to part with other things."
Li Jiacheng said simply.
"OK, as long as Mr. Li is willing to sell, I will buy it for 20,000 square meters."
The current housing prices within the second ring road of Beijing are around 10,000.
Oriental Plaza is in a great location and is of course much higher.
"Twenty thousand is a bit low. I spent US$1.5 billion to build it, so twenty-five thousand is the appropriate price."
Xu Liang shook his head, "Although Oriental Plaza has a superior location, it took too long to build. The useful life of commercial land in the mainland is 40 years. From the time the land was obtained in 1992 to now, 14 years have passed, and one-third of the time has passed. One more.
Discounts are a given.
As for the original investment.
Mr. Li, the Yangtze River has recovered a lot in recent years.
Add me to this, and you've already made a lot of money. ”
"Xu Sheng, the construction of Oriental Plaza repeatedly encountered political review, and it was not really opened to the outside world until the end of the century. I only made money for a few years.
If you don’t sell it more expensively, how can you recover the cost? ”
The two went back and forth and fought for a long time before reaching an agreement on 21,700/square meter.
As for the acquisition of Nettech, it is more complicated than that of Oriental Plaza.
It is also necessary to obtain information from the Internet department, and negotiations can only begin after due diligence is completed.
Without a month or two, the deal would not be completed.
But the two sides have finalized the general plan, and the rest will be left to the following.
After finishing the meal and drinking tea, Xu Liang took his leave.
——
Time flies so fast, September 1st arrives in a blink of an eye.
On this day, the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq Exchange in the United States were decorated with lights and colorful decorations and crowded with people.
Xu Liang led some of Hongmeng's senior executives to host Xiangjiang, while Xie Wen and Yu Jun hosted Nasdaq.
Due to the time difference, the market in Xiangjiang was launched one day earlier.
When Xu Liang held a gavel tied with red silk and struck the gong, colored paper flew into the air and applause and cheers continued.
Standing next to Zhang Yida, Hongmeng senior executives, as well as representatives from investment institutions such as JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs, SoftBank, etc., were also filled with happy smiles and shared this glorious moment together.
"Hongmeng Bing (HK, 1011) opened up 21.2% to close at HK$374.3."
"Hongmeng Bing (HK, 1011) was listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange with an issue price of HK$308 and raised HK$138.6 billion, becoming the Internet company with the highest market value in the world."
The next day, Bing successfully listed on Nasdaq.
The issue price was US$40, and it closed at US$53.42 on the first day, up 33.5% from the opening.
There is an excellent case like Google, whose market value has risen faster than that in Xiangjiang.
Combining the market value of both parties, Hongmeng Bing’s market value reached HK$1,127.8 billion and US$146.4 billion after the first day of listing.
Information about the successful listing of Hongmeng Bing was quickly sent back to China by reporters from various countries who were stationed at the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and Nasdaq. Report after report came out quickly:
"Hongmeng Bing becomes the first Internet stock"
"Six years, HK$1,127.8 billion, US$146.4 billion, a moment to witness a miracle"
"27-year-old Xu Liangcheng is the youngest CEO of a listed company on Nasdaq in 44 years"
"A Centennial Genius, the Richest Man in the World"
"The World's Largest Internet Company Made in China"
Although Xu Liang did not study at Central America for a few days, there was also a post about him banging the gong on the school BBS.
"Congratulations to Xu Liang, an outstanding alumnus of our school, for his successful listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange"
In fact, there are many companies that Xu Liangsong has listed.
But this time it was particularly sensational.
Because the market value of Hongmeng Bing is too high.
It has surpassed the current popular Spicy Chicken Zhongyou.
It is the company with the highest market value in China.
And it’s a technology company.
"Oh my god, the company went public before I graduated from college." A passing student commented.
"I thought that when entering college, everyone would be on the same starting line, but you ended up standing at the end."
"Is Bing also a company founded by Xu Liang? Isn't the company he founded called Hongmeng?"
"Reply upstairs, Bing is a subsidiary of Hongmeng. Although my son has become successful and his market value has surpassed Google to become the Internet company with the highest market value in the world, I have to recognize me."
"Bing is US$146.4 billion, Sina is US$174.5, Netcom is US$8.95 billion, Yihaodian is US$15.3 billion, and Kanghua's market value is nearly US$30 billion...
Damn it, Xu Liang is too rich. ”
"This year I will definitely be able to beat Bill Gates, and Forbes will reach the top."
"Don't think about it, can the United States allow a Chinese to climb to the top?"
"Hmph, low-quality people always think of others as rubbish. In fact, you are the only one who is rubbish."
"F*ck, you traitor who is making trouble for Americans, how much money did your American father give you to make you kneel down so completely?"
"On the 7th floor, there is no need to pity a third-class citizen."
"On the 13th floor, you are a third-class citizen, aren't you just a slave?"
"You low-quality garbage, stay in this decadent, authoritarian, disgusting place forever and slowly rot..."
That’s when the internet was clamoring for Bing’s IPO.
Xu Liang has already taken a plane to London.
Three days later, Mo Maniang gave birth to a son for him.
When the child was one month old, he flew to Paris again.
The triplets in Christina's belly were also born.
He added three sons and a daughter.
After staying in Paris for another month, I arrived in Rio de Janeiro, the former capital of Brazil, in mid-November.
“It’s nice here!”
Looking at the famous Bread Mountain and the blue coastline in the distance, Xu Liang nodded with satisfaction.
He was not used to staying in hotels, so before arriving in Brazil, he asked Andrew Forrester, who arrived early, to help him choose a seaside villa.
"As long as you are satisfied!"
She glanced at him, pointed to the sofa next to her, and sat down.
"Tell me about the current situation."
After Andrew nodded.
“This time is the sixth round of oil exploration bidding after Brazil’s new Petroleum Law reform in 1997, with a total of 15 blocks.
All are located in the Senlis Basin on the southeast coast.
Among them, Blocks SM-E-01 to SM-E-07 are located in the shallow sea area of the San Sein Platform, with a water depth of about 300 meters to 500 meters;
Blocks SM-F-08 to SM-F-12 are located in the deep water area of the San Sein continental shelf between 500 and 1500 meters;
SM-G-13 to SM-G-15 are located in the ultra-deep water area of the San Sein Mesa with a water depth of 2,000 meters. ”
7 shallow sea exploration blocks with a total area of 7504 square kilometers;
The total area of 5 deep sea exploration blocks is 6730 square kilometers;
The total area of the three deep-sea exploration areas is 5,923 square kilometers.
The largest is the SM-G-15 block, which covers 2,871 square kilometers. ”
Xu Liang: “Where are the geological data I asked you to prepare?”
"Everything is ready."
Andrew Forrester took out a drawing marked with different colors and graphics and placed it in front of him.
"According to your request, we marked the salt distribution area in the Santos Basin.
The white part is the shallow sea salt-free area.
The blank space in the middle is the rock layer transition zone, and the middle part is the rock layer thickness zone.
From the cross section, it can be divided into three layers, namely non-marine strata in the rift stage, non-evaporite strata in the transition stage and marine strata in the post-rift stage.
Thick evaporites divide the entire Sanlis Basin into two structures: supra-salt and pre-salt.
From the 1970s to the present, the Brazilian Petroleum Authority has drilled a total of 274 exploration wells in the Santos Basin, of which 55 have discovered oil and gas.
Although most reserves are not high, they are located in the upper salt zone.
Therefore, most of the oil companies participating in the bidding this time are concentrated in the deep water areas numbered E and F.
As for the ultra-deep water area numbered G, there are currently no other bidders except us and Petrobras. ”
Xu Liang: "Are you optimistic about the ultra-deep water area?"
