Chapter 917

Simon left New York on Tuesday and stayed in San Francisco until Wednesday, mainly for the interview work of fusion times and SolarCity. He returned to Los Angeles in the afternoon of the same day, stayed for one day and came to New York again.

April 19, Friday.

In the New York Stock Exchange on the 11th Wall Street in lower Manhattan, at 9:30 a.m., Sophia fishy led the management core of melisandro and several other special guests to press the trading button, announcing that melisandro shares officially began trading on the New York Stock Exchange.

Different from the crazy 151% share price rise on the day of tincobail's listing, melisandro's share price rise on the first day of listing was much more flat.

Of course, only relatively.

At 10:30, after three rounds of inquiry, melisandro shares officially opened at $19.25, up 28.3%, compared with the issue price of $15.

The U.S. stock market is in a bull market cycle. Although melisandro is not inferior to popular technology stocks, it is still a westero concept stock. After inquiry, its opening price has increased by 28.3%. In fact, it has obviously exceeded the average level. The industry expects that melisandro's share price will increase by about 50% on the first day of listing, which is also the internal judgment of westero system.

From the opening rally, this is basically the case.

In the banquet hall of Marriott Hotel near the New York Stock Exchange, the noon is a celebration party as usual.

In fact, the celebration party is more suitable to be held in the evening. In order to match Simon's schedule, it is changed to noon. Simon will return to Los Angeles in the afternoon.

Compared with the celebration reception of technology shares listing, the biggest feature of melisandro reception is eye-friendly. The world's largest luxury giant has been listed on the market, and all the supermodels who can come to express their congratulations have arrived. The coffee seats are a little worse, and they don't even have the qualification to enter.

Sophia, who is wearing a white ol suit and is more and more powerful, is standing with Simon with a glass of red wine, talking about melisandro's next step: "I'm going to set foot in the luxury home field, and the marketing department has conducted some investigations. The global economy is recovering rapidly, and there are a lot of new wealth brought by the new technology industry. In the next ten years, the development of the luxury housing market will be very strong, which will also drive the demand for top household products. What's more, melisandro's resources and channels all over the world can be directly used. "

Simon took a sip of his champagne and said, "I don't know about that. You do it yourself. But you must be right. And, not just in the next decade, maybe in the next 20 or 30 years, although the cycle of economic ups and downs is inevitable, demand in the field of cutting-edge consumption has certainly been increasing. "

Sophia was puzzled: "Why are you so sure?"

Simon said, "according to the overall situation. First of all, we can be sure that with the advent of the era of globalization, the probability of a world war like the one half a century ago will be greatly reduced. As long as there is no devastating war, social wealth will increase all the time. Then there is the 28 society. Because the imbalance of social resources will inevitably lead to the poor getting poorer and the rich getting richer. Under the aggravation of this polarization, there are more and more top rich people. "

Sophia nodded: "it makes sense, but I think there must be a second?"

"Yes, in the end, it will return to the repeated reincarnation of human beings in the past thousands of years, which can't escape."

"Can't you try to change?"

"If we can change, there will be no reincarnation."

Sophia frowned and thought for a moment, then looked up at Simon: "it seems that it's really necessary for you to buy land on that island in Australia."

"I also think it's more important to leave a way for our children to migrate to Mars, and it's already being implemented."

"Oh," Sophia said with a smile, remembering one thing: "the day before yesterday, snow and green would call dad in a video conversation with Jennie. Then I just taught a few words, and the children could call my mom in the camera. I didn't expect that."

It was Wednesday the day before yesterday, and Simon returned to Los Angeles in the evening. Due to the time difference between the East and west coasts, Sophia must have been talking with them at noon, but he didn't meet them. However, Simon certainly knew that the two youngest children would call dad. At this time, he also said with a smile, "my child, of course, is very smart."

Two kids are just eight months old.

Most children just know some simple syllables at this age. Although they are not as outstanding as Seattle, they can learn to call Mom and dad at this time, which is much smarter than ordinary children.

Sophia's expression was a little bit narrow and playful: "but I don't think Moore and Nick seem to be very smart. On the contrary, SYL, snow and green are more like you. You said, in the future, will Jennie be crazy? Maybe you will have a headache

Of course I know what Sophia means.

Although all five children will be heirs to the Westeros, any large family needs someone to talk to. As Janet's own sons, Melbourne and Nicholas should have become the core of the next generation, but if a group of younger brothers and sisters are better than them, it will be a bit difficult in the future.Simon looked at the woman's proud little expression and shrugged his shoulders. "Jennie won't go crazy. She likes sear the most in her daily life."

Sophia still looked over with a smile: "would you be crazy?"

"No, I can't in the future. I'll drive out all the extra lions and grab the site by myself. I'll leave one to inherit the family property. That's what we do on the grassland."

Sophia gave Simon a white look.

I know that men will do it, but I don't worry too much.

After all, the Westeros system is so huge that no matter how much their children can get in the future, it is destined to be a fortune for outsiders. Even if I didn't get anything, I still have myself. Although the man initially said that she could leave melisandra to Daniel and Gemma, as a mother, she would not ignore the other two children.

She just wanted to embarrass him, but she didn't want to chase him. Sophia changed the topic and said, "the Chinese girl around you, Chen Qing, sent me some information about Chinese jade materials some time ago. A very powerful girl put forward a whole set of operation plan in her email. Chinese jade was only used by nobles in ancient times, We can first hype the value of jade through Christie's auction house, and at the same time more widely operate such concepts, and then add jade jewelry to our jewelry brands. It's a good idea. Bulgari's team has started to study this scheme. "

When it comes to jade jewelry, westerners prefer colored gems, such as jadeite, which are used more in Western luxury jewelry brands. All kinds of jade produced in China have not been paid much attention.

The main reason is the lack of cultural accumulation.

Hearing Sophia talk about it, Simon said with a smile, "she must have thought about doing it by herself. Maybe she felt that she couldn't do it, so she gave it to you as a favor."

"You think it's possible, too?"

Simon thought for a moment and said, "China's output of some jade is very large, so you need to choose a kind of jade with relatively small output first, so as to facilitate the operation. I happen to know one, um... "

Simon didn't know how to translate for a moment, so he could only use the Chinese name directly and continued: "this jade is called Hetian jade seed material. You can continue to ask Chen for the specific information. In short, because this kind of jade can only be collected from the river bed scoured by running water, the yield is very small. Other jade can be directly collected from the mountain. According to tons, this kind of jade can only be mined by blocks, and it is difficult to have large pieces of material, so it is relatively expensive. If you really want to operate here, you can start purchasing first, hoard a batch of products, and then stir up the concept. If you ship slowly, the profit will be very rich. "

As a matter of fact, Simon just got the information about Hetian jade seed material some time ago, and Chen Qing introduced it to Simon when she was responsible for making jade nameplates for the girls of Guofeng art group.

However, the concept of hype comes from the memory of Simon's previous life.

Whether it's porcelain, Pu'er, chicken blood stone or Hetian jade seed, it's the same way.

Thinking of this, Simon asked Sophia: "I just said that the idea of auction industry should be commonly used."

Sophia nodded: "yes, in the 1980s, Impressionism was hyped, such as Van Gogh, Monet, bisharo and so on, and then sold to the Japanese. At that time, 40% of Impressionist Works in the international market were robbed by Japanese buyers, all of which were targeted by the auction industry. In recent years, the Japanese do not buy, even some of Van Gogh's works, the price drop is very serious. However, you remind me that this operation can be used outside the auction industry. "

That's right.

There has never been anything new. It's all routine.

In the 1980s, they were Japanese. In another decade, they will be Chinese. Then the Chinese also learned this routine and began to make all kinds of hype, even to garlic.

Garlic didn't expect to be hyped one day.

While chatting, they stop talking and greet each other when they see Bill split and grace split coming together.

Because it is necessary to sign the IPO underwriting agreement of China Telecom, although it is not the first leader in Boston, Bill spotter will also go to China with Simon tomorrow because of his key role in this business.

Knowing that the two men might have business to talk about, Sophia said to Simon, "I have something else in the afternoon. Simon, I won't give it away when you leave, and remember to bring a gift back from China for Denny and Gemma."

Then he motioned grace to go away.

Grace just said hello to Simon, her eyes occasionally flashed some special soft light, but there was no flaw on the surface. She talked and laughed with Sophia and walked to other places.

Simon and Grace's relationship has always been very low-key, however, out of the keen sixth sense between women, Sophia also noticed and got confirmation from Simon. Even so, women don't show hostility to grace. After all, it's just in this banquet hall. If they want to be hostile, they may not be able to take care of it.

When Sophia and she left, the remaining two men chatted about their next journey without any trace of disgust. Occasionally, they had to socialize with their guests.So until one o'clock in the afternoon, when the reception ended, Simon came out of the Marriott Hotel in the lower city and drove directly to Kennedy International Airport to fly back to Los Angeles.

New York.

The last trading day of the week ended quickly.

By the end of the afternoon, melisandro's share price rose 54.1% on the first day of listing, closing at $23.125.

Based on the total share capital of 2.265 billion shares after the listing, melisandro's closing market value was as high as US $52.3 billion.

Among the listed "women" in vestro system, such as danielis, igritte and Tinkerbell, melisandro, with a market value of 52.3 billion US dollars, is undoubtedly the lowest.

This is still relative.

For example, poor Boeing is still in a corner. In February, Tinkerbell went public. Boeing's market value is only $37 billion, and it has not been able to cross the threshold of $40 billion recently.

However, the market value of melisandro is very high.

According to the net profit of US $1.51 billion last year, even if the market value reaches US $52.3 billion, melisandro's P / E ratio is only 34 times, which is relatively low in the bull market state of the New York Stock Exchange at this time, because under the background of global economic recovery, the increasing demand for luxury goods, coupled with its aggressive development strategy, melisandro's success rate is low It grows very quickly.

After the closing of the afternoon, many analysts on Wall Street raised the growth expectation of melisandro's share price for a period of time in the future, believing that the company's P / E ratio should be more than 50 times, which means a market value of at least $75 billion.

In any case, according to westero's 53.1% stake in melisandro after listing, Simon's total value of melisandro shares reached $27.7 billion after the close of the day.

Another fortune worth tens of billions of dollars.

Most importantly, through this IPO, melisandro also received $4.5 billion in cash at one time, which is a huge amount of cash even in the luxury industry where the profit margin has always been very high. In the next few years, whether it is the continued expansion of the original two "aircraft carrier battle groups" or the luxury home furnishing industry that Sofia plans to test the water, with sufficient capital as the backing, melisandro will be invincible in the next few years.

According to the information in my memory, the luxury industry is actually the same as the entertainment, telecommunications, medicine and other industries in the United States. The last few years of the 1990s are also the final period of the finalization of the pattern of the luxury industry in the original time and space. LVMH group, Richemont group and PPR group all completed the final division of a series of brands in the luxury industry in recent years.

Then, the industry structure is basically unbreakable.

Now, because of melisandro's birth, it's not only LVMH, once the world's largest luxury giant, that has been left behind by melisandro. The other two, Richemont group, which is mainly engaged in jewelry and watches, and PPR group, which used to take Gucci as the core, have not formed at all. Only one Jijia brand of Richemont group can win, and PPR is still mainly engaged in department store business.

It can be said that from now on, the luxury industry is dominated by melisandra.

As long as melisandro is interested in the prey, other brands can't compete with it. Even if competitors forcibly get some of melisandro's favorite targets through high prices, their strength is barely enough. If the foundation is insufficient, they may even be completely crushed by melisandro.

This is oligarchy.

A real industry oligarch.

What makes people in the game feel even more oppressed is that such an industry oligarch, the westero system also has a series of industries, big and small, such as danielis, igritte and so on.
