On May 12, Sohu officially landed on Nasdaq for $16.
This price is similar to that of Netease at the beginning. It can be seen that Comrade Chaoyang has no less ambition and confidence in his own enterprise than Ding Lei.
At the same time, the NASDAQ index broke through the 5000 point mark in one fell swoop, just one step away from the collapse points in Wu Tao's memory.
Sohu's share price broke through $20, but soon fell back to about $18.
As of the local closing in New York, it was still fluctuating near this price.
Wu Tao looked at the fax sent by Wu YingYing and determined that although the situation was not in line with his own estimation, it was not far from it.
In addition, the first day trading volume of Sohu shares is obviously not as active as Netease. It can be said that the situation is very clear.
This also shows that the financial elites and bankers on Wall Street are not all fools.
They obviously expected such obvious overheating.
However, even if Sohu's performance on NASDAQ is not ideal, comrade Chaoyang and his party, as the founder and senior management of Sohu, still made a lot of money and completed their personal gorgeous turn.
Therefore, the domestic media remain optimistic about this.
He continued to publish articles and publicize them with special titles such as "Internet industry equals black gold industry" and "Internet creates billionaires in the new century".
Wu Tao really couldn't keep up with it, so he published an analysis article on his blog entitled "who is going to swim naked in the spring tide", which means that there is a bubble in the Internet industry and the Internet industry in China, and the day of collapse is in the near future.
However, good advice goes against the ear and no one likes to listen.
Such articles were posted on the Internet, did not hit much waves, and soon drowned in a prosperous movement of singing and dancing.
However, it doesn't matter. He didn't intend to do anything with this article. Moreover, this article was only excerpted from a small paper he took as an economic management course.
Near the end of May, Ding Lei still came. It has been half a month since Sohu logged in to NASDAQ.
Unfortunately, Wu Tao was receiving Lina Fujiwara that day and didn't have time to talk to him.
Lina Fujiwara, which has not been seen for more than half a year, is now more charming.
In the position of president of Mitsui consortium, the whole person became much colder under his unsmiling expression.
It was not until she walked into Wu Tao's quadrangle that Fujiwara Lina suddenly took off her outer shell and became relaxed.
After nearly a year's decoration, the siheyuan in Houhai finally looks a little like it.
Although it did not reproduce the brilliance of a prince's residence, it at least looked brand-new, antique, quiet and elegant, and there was no lack of convenience and enjoyment of high-end residence.
It's a little hot at the end of May.
Wu Tao beckoned Nina Fujiwara to sit down in the pavilion in another hospital. The four columns around the pavilion were all lit with soft incense. The smell was refreshing but not pungent, and it could drive away mosquitoes.
Lianai Fujiwara glanced around, then sat down gracefully on the solid wood stool and looked at Wu Tao's face, full of burning heat.
"Wu sang, why do you always think you are very different from before?" When she said this, Nina Fujiwara's beautiful eyes drifted. It is said that she is also at the helm of the four major consortia in Japan. But when she sees Wu Tao again, she always feels a little inferior.
Wu Tao smiled with regret, took the tea from Xiao Zhang, a servant in the courtyard, and said casually, "maybe the environment of the house has affected your perception. Try the tea."
Fujiwara Lina looked again and felt that she could not grasp the different point. She simply gave up, picked up the tea cup, gently opened the cup cover, and suddenly felt a fragrance.
"Good tea!"
Wu Tao smiled. This is the best Longjing from Liang Yancheng. Of course it won't be bad.
The two people smiled quietly, and then filled the tea cup, so that Alisha couldn't help but want a drink.
Fortunately, at the next moment, they stopped talking about tea and began to turn to the subject.
"Wu sang, to be honest, I paid a special visit because I was concerned about your blog post."
Wu Tao raised his eyebrows. The article he wrote was not noticed by many people in China. On the contrary, it gave the Japanese woman an idea.
Fujiwara's voice continued. "There were rumors that the Internet industry revolution would be the fourth scientific and technological revolution, so Mitsui consortium has a lot of layout and investment in this industry. If Wu sang believes that the industry has overheated now, does it mean that venture capital for the Internet industry should stop all and stop losses in time? "
Wu Tao smiled and waved his hand: "the overheating of the global Internet industry does not mean that this industry is about to die out. In fact, truly valuable Internet companies are still emerging, but they are not easy to be found. "
"... moreover, the future Internet industry will remain a pillar industry. The only way which must be passed from the barbaric growth to the healthy development is the collapse of the Internet bubble.
"... in Huaxia's words, this is a process in which the waves wash away the sand and remove the weeds and save the turnip. Although cruel, but wonderful. "
When Fujiwara Lina heard the speech, her beautiful eyes brightened, then she nodded and bowed and said, "Lina has been taught, Wu sang!"
Wu Tao waved his hand and said, "if you can listen to this, it will be valuable. Otherwise, it makes no sense. What's more, I haven't thanked you for purchasing Ericsson's mobile phone division. Why don't we settle down? "
"Hay!" Fujiwara Lina took off her coat, exposed the burst suspender vest inside and said, "however, during the implementation of Huaxia this time, Alisha and I have just contributed to the settlement of two OEM projects in Wusu city. Secretary an spoke highly of us."
With that, Fujiwara looked at Wu Tao with beautiful eyes. That meaning is self-evident. How are you going to thank me?
Wu Tao looked embarrassed, then smiled and covered up: "how about I invite you to have a man Han banquet here tonight?"
Before Fujiwara Lina could make a statement, Alexa couldn't wait to say, "if we can, we'd like to stay here for one night today."
Wu Tao glanced at Alyssa and looked back at Fujiwara's pretty face“ No problem. If you still feel that you are not satisfied, I'll give you another suggestion for free. "
"Oh?" Lianai Fujiwara's upper body leaned forward slightly, and the white under the sling collar suddenly revealed a large area.
Wu Tao confidently said, "if I didn't expect it to be bad, now Japan's Walkman, CD player and other businesses should decline? I suggest you transform as soon as possible, or cooperate with lotus MP3 product department to jointly create Walkman products to adapt to the new era! "
"Nani?" Ninaton Fujiwara was dumbfounded. "Wu sang, do you mean that the decline of Sony and Panasonic's Walkman business is affected by the new MP3 products? But how can the sound quality of MP3 match that of Walkman? It's incredible! "
Wu Tao didn't say much, so he said, "so this is just a suggestion."
The implication is that if you don't believe it, don't regret it in the future.
