Chapter 33 Listing and New Year’s Eve
After the major business leaders reported their work, it was time for Wu Siyuan to speak.
Although he himself dislikes such behavior more and more, there are some things that cannot be avoided when he is at the helm of such a giant commercial ship.
Moreover, the development of this commercial giant will be directly related to the amount of influence he gains.
There's no reason why he doesn't pay attention to it.
Of course, sitting in his position, he would only focus on matters at the company's strategic level.
He mainly talked about two points.
First, Wu Siyuan pointed out and emphasized the future development direction of [Chaoqun Group]:
[Intelligence], [Globalization], [Innovation]!
All business lines of [Chaoqun Group] will focus on these three development strategies, deepen the development of original industries, create new industries, reduce costs and increase efficiency, and move forward together!
This is a commonplace statement. It is the development direction that the group has long established and is often preached in the company.
But the second point is different.
Wu Siyuan pointed out that the development of many of the group's businesses has reached a certain level, and the original closed development is no longer suitable for the needs of some of the group's businesses.
Embrace the openness and move to the next level.
Wu Siyuan did not hide it and directly announced, "Some businesses and companies of the group will seek IPO, that is, going public."
"On the one hand, it is to share the fruits of our group's business growth with the outside world. This is also in response to the country's call to get rich first and drive wealth later. On the other hand, it is also to seek further development through opening up!"
In fact, there are some reasons that Wu Siyuan cannot say directly.
[Chaoqun Group] has grown into a behemoth that is feared and coveted by some people, and [Chaoqun Group] has always been very closed and is Wu Siyuan's independent kingdom.
With the rapid development of [Chaoqun Group], he has made many people feel restless.
Wu Siyuan has already smelled this smell.
So, instead of waiting for others to do it for you, it’s better to do it yourself.
And this will also win the favor of those big shots - sensible!
For Wu Siyuan, money or not is not important to him!
What matters is influence!
As long as the control of the group is still his, as long as the influence generated by the group belongs to him.
Then nothing else matters!
The participants here are all talented people. If they can climb to this position, especially if they climb to this position under a system like [Super Group] with [strong internal supervision] and very little nepotism, their IQ and moral character will not be low. .
When they heard Wu Siyuan, the chairman and chief CEO of the group, announce this matter, they all showed surprise on their faces.
Among so many participants, only a few core executives of the group knew about this matter in advance, that is, the general managers of the major business lines. They all looked calm.
Wu Siyuan continued, "So in the new year, one of the important businesses of the group is to package and reorganize some businesses and seek to go public."
"[Chaoqun Group] has always been about seeking common prosperity on the basis of fairness, justice and equality. Therefore, after some of the group's businesses are successfully listed, relevant executives and ordinary employees will be rewarded based on their contribution to the group. Get the corresponding options!”
"Of course, a listing working committee will be established to take charge of this follow-up!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the eyes of the executives attending the meeting lit up.
This is the road to financial freedom!
A senior executive bravely raised his hand and asked Wu Siyuan, "Director Wu, may I boldly ask, are there any companies or businesses within our group that will impact the IPO?"
The host of the conference, Huang Yuping, smiled slightly and said, "I will help Director Wu answer this for you!"
“At present, after careful discussions, the group’s board of directors has determined that the business companies that will seek listing are [Feixia Takeout], [Xiao Xianrou], [Shennong Orchard], [Blue Sky Environmental Protection], and [Animal Husbandry] that will be independent [Industrial Breeding], and [Audition] Project!”
"Wow..." The [Chaoqun Group] executives in the entire conference were in an uproar!
I knew that the company was very generous, but I didn’t expect that the company was so generous!
We will soon launch six high-quality assets for IPO!
Especially the [Audition] project!
Although [Chaoqun Group] has always advertised itself as an industrial group, it is undeniable that the Internet technology company that grew up on the [Audition] project is already [Chaoqun Group]'s current core asset!
And for such an important high-quality asset, the group is actually willing to put it on the market!
Executives were stunned by the group's determination, and ecstasy ensued.
Such an intensive industrial listing plan basically covers more than 60% of the senior executives.
How could these lucky people not be ecstatic when they were hit by a pie suddenly falling from the sky?
[Chaoqun Group]'s salary and remuneration can only be said to be above average or average in the same industry, but the benefits are good.
However, due to the supervision of the [Spark System], it is difficult for these executives to realize their power, which makes their income significantly less than that of executives of other group companies!
I have already bought a lot of luxury houses, villas and beautiful cars from other large groups and companies!
And compared to them, they look very [shabby]!
It's impossible for you to say that you don't have resentment in your heart!
Many senior executives just saw the "beauty" outside. When communication with the group was ineffective, they left angrily and chose to join other large companies.
Regarding these behaviors, [Chaoqun Group] has expressed respect for them, is free to leave, and has not placed any restrictions on the [Competition Agreement].
It’s just that some executives have been in high positions for a long time and have neglected some things.
When a company is small, it is individuals who make the company.
And when the company is big, it is the company that achieves the individual!
The outstanding achievements made by those senior executives are based on the platform of [Chaoqun Group].
They can leave [Chaoqun Group] and go to other companies.
However, customers who are closely related to [Chaoqun Group] will not be transferred.
After they went to other companies, they wanted to bring back these customers who had been brothers with him before, but found that it was extremely difficult.
And if they want to transplant [Chaoqun Group's] unique management methods to other companies, they will also find that the soil is not right and they are incompatible!
Things that can be easily accomplished in [Chaoqun Group] and departmental collaborations that can be easily promoted will encounter many constraints in other companies.
Many of the current executives are in touch with those who have chosen to leave.
From the very frequent chats at the beginning and then increasingly rare, we can find that those executives who left the system of [Super Group] generally did not do well!
Except for a few very talented people!
Such talents will not be inferior anywhere!
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …
The little resentment hidden in the hearts of these executives disappeared the moment Wu Siyuan announced that he would promote the listing of the group's business and the executives could obtain options. Instead, they looked forward to it and thought about how many shares they could get!
Another executive couldn't hide his excitement and raised a question, "Director Wu, Mr. Huang, may I ask which markets our group plans to list the companies it plans to list on?"
As soon as this issue came up, many executives pricked up their ears.
Because listing on different stock exchanges will directly affect the market value of listed companies, and thus affect their wealth.
[Chaoqun Group] Currently, there are actually three securities trading markets that you can choose from, US stocks, Hong Kong stocks, and A-shares!
Currently, many Internet companies are keen to list on the US stock market.
Because compared with the other two securities markets, U.S. stocks have the following advantages:
1. Fast time to market in the United States. China's listing system is different from that of the United States. The former is an approval system, while the latter is a registration system. The latter must meet the conditions of the stock exchange and submit an application to be listed, so the listing time is faster.
2. You can raise more money in the United States. Firstly, it is because the U.S. capital market is larger and its capital capacity is larger; secondly, because the U.S. stock market uses a cumulative order method for issuance prices, while domestic companies use a fixed price method. For those companies with higher reputations, cumulative orders are adopted. You can get a higher issuance price by placing an order.
3. Increase visibility. For some multinational companies, listing on the U.S. stock market can also increase the company's visibility. Listing in the United States can attract the attention of global capital and bring international capital to the company's own development. These companies may not be able to raise the capital they need to grow in their own countries.
Some companies can even obtain top industry resources or talents by going public in the United States. These are all huge benefits of going public in the United States.
For many executives, the first two advantages of being listed on US stocks are closely related to them.
List earlier, higher issuance price!
Therefore, some of them tend to be listed on the US stock market.
Of course, because of the feelings of family and country, another large number of senior executives prefer to be listed on domestic or Hong Kong stocks.
However, no matter what these executives think, they have no decision-making power. The decision-making power lies only in Wu Siyuan's hands.
Wu Siyuan had already decided on the listing location, and Huang Yuping announced it.
"The board of directors of the group has passed a resolution that the six companies that plan to be listed will choose to be listed on A-shares!"
A small number of executives sighed inwardly, but this small regret was quickly forgotten by the prospect of freedom of wealth brought about by listing. The executives attending the meeting couldn't help but start discussing the market value of these companies to be listed. , as well as the amount of financing and how many options can be allocated.
Throughout 2019, the number of Huaguo initial public offerings (IPOs) successfully listed on the A-share market reached 201, raising a total of 248.929 billion yuan.
[Chaoqun Group] Although the entire group is not packaged and listed together, but some of the group's assets and businesses are packaged and reorganized into independent companies for listing, the market value of these six companies preparing to be listed is at least several hundred billion.
For example, if the [Audition] project is independent, its market value will never be lower than the current market value of [Qiandu].
Now [Qiandu] is valued at more than 60 billion US dollars, which is a market value of more than 370 billion yuan.
Together with other listed companies, if market management is done well, the total valuation may reach one trillion!
According to A-share regulations, these six companies must issue at least 10% of their shares after listing.
Calculated this way, after these six companies go public, they will absorb more than 100 billion in raised funds!
All the executives felt horrified just thinking about it, but they couldn't help but be excited!
[Chaoqun Group] The annual summary meeting has ended.
But the matter is not over, but has just begun.
Ever since [Chaoqun Group] spread the word that it would promote the listing of many companies, the entire financial circle has been shaken. Every day, an endless stream of brokers come to seek cooperation and research.
People in the financial circle are all ignorant, and they have noticed the big fish [Super Group] for a long time.
In fact, with its development now, [Chaoqun Group] can no longer keep a low profile. It is already a giant, so how can it pretend to be a little white rabbit.
Many brokerages have come to lobby for [Chaoqun Group] to go public before.
But at that time, Wu Siyuan only wanted to be a low-key person and do things in a high-profile manner, and there was no financial pressure, so he refused.
No one from the securities firm saw him, so he was dismissed by Huang Yuping.
Now that the big boss Wu Siyuan has finally nodded, these brokerage firms are so excited that they can't sleep.
[Chaoqun Group] There are six companies to be listed.
Not to mention winning them all, just to casually participate in underwriting the issuance of one of the companies, most of the company's performance this year will be completed.
If you are lucky enough to get the core [audition] project company, you don’t have to worry about your performance that year!
These securities companies are naturally like the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, each showing their magical powers.
It just depends on who can grab these delicious cakes.
After [Chaoqun Group] spread the news that it was going to be listed, not only brokers gathered, but even the China Banking Regulatory Commission stopped being arrogant and took the initiative to express its attitude, welcoming [Chaoqun Group] related companies to be listed in the country.
Even the chairman of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange was revealed to have personally visited [Chaoqun Group] and invited it to list on the Hong Kong stock market!
As soon as the news came out.
In the entire market, listed companies that have done business with [Chaoqun Group] have experienced unreasonable price increases.
There are also many stocks that have experienced continuous daily limit increases.
From that day on.
There is a new term on the market!
[Super Concept Stock]!
But this has nothing to do with Wu Siyuan.
After he announced that the group was going to promote the listing of business companies, there would naturally be dedicated personnel in charge.
He just needs to nod or shake his head at the critical moment!
Time passes day by day.
[Chaoqun Group] took its annual vacation nearly a week in advance.
On the day before New Year's Eve.
A big news announcement.
The country entered a period of silence.
Yangcheng City became even less popular.
In Lin Meiyi's newly bought manor villa.
Wu Siyuan, Lin Meiyi and her daughter celebrated another New Year happily.
From 2012 to 2020.
In the blink of an eye, eight years passed like this.
