Rebirth: Dominate The World, Starting From The School Network

In the domestic Internet community, there used to be the title "BATW".

B, stands for thousand degrees.

A, stands for Ahri.

T, stands for Goose Factory.

W, represents Future Group.

That was back in 2003-04.

BATW represents the four companies with the strongest development momentum and the highest potential among domestic unlisted Internet companies.

Qiandu is working hard in the field of search engines.

Ali is unparalleled in the e-commerce field.

Goose Factory is the leader in the social field.

Future Group has come from behind and has made great achievements in many sectors.

At that time, these four unlisted domestic Internet companies were unanimously optimistic targets among the domestic and foreign capital circles. They had no shortage of financing channels. When they were greeted by outsiders, venture capital institutions took the initiative to send money to them.

However, with the gradual rise of Future Group, it first had a head-on confrontation with Goose Factory in the social field, and finally beat Goose Factory to death on the beach. Goose Factory had to shed tears and cut off its arms, and turned to enter the game industry.

Subsequently.

Because Jisou Search, a subsidiary of Future Group, is getting closer and closer, Qiandu’s position as the top player in the domestic search engine market is also in jeopardy. Li Yanhong had to let Qiandu go public in the United States early to develop new business sectors and cope with competition from Future Group. pressure.

Only Ali, because Future Group has not extended its tentacles to the e-commerce field, does not face competitive pressure from Future 413 Group and can devote itself to fighting with eBy in the domestic market.

And in the end, he pulled the Future Group onto his own chariot. With the huge funds provided by the Future Group, he launched a war of annihilation against eBay, and relied on the Double Eleven event to completely secure his position as the leader in the domestic e-commerce field. shake.

The four "BATW" giants of the past have completely become history, and the "BATW" four giants have become the "W-AB" three giants.

Among the three giants of "W-AB", Future Group and Qiandu have successively gone public in the United States, while only Ali has not yet been listed.

But just today, December 6, 2007, Ali Group's flagship company Ali Network Co., Ltd. (Ali Group's B2B business) was listed in Xiangjiang.

B2B business is the business sector where Ali Group started. Therefore, although Ali Group is not listed on the market, it can almost represent Ali Group.

Throughout November, Ahli and Teacher Ma played the leading roles in the Internet technology world.

Ali Baba began its official public sale at 9:00 a.m. on November 23, 2007, and ended on November 26, 2007.

(ccfd) In the public sale that ended at noon on the 26th, the public sale was oversubscribed by more than 258 times, and the frozen funds reached HK$450 billion, setting a record for the highest frozen funds in the history of the Hong Kong stock market.

The previous record for frozen funds in the Hong Kong stock market was Belle International (1880)'s HK$446.3 billion in May this year, followed by the world's largest IPO in 2006 - Industrial and Commercial Bank of China's HK$411.5 billion, mainland real estate developer Bi Guiyuan has a frozen capital of HK$333 billion.

On November 27, 2007, "Ali Electric's issue price was positioned at HK$13.5.

Ali Baba began trading on the main board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange on December 6, 2007. The stock code is 1688. The shares will be traded in lot sizes of 500 shares each.

During the global roadshow, Ali Baba received more than 60 billion yuan, which was oversubscribed by institutions more than 50 times, which means that Ali Baba's financing amount is expected to exceed 1.7 billion yuan.

The over-subscription by institutional investors and the two-year lock-up period for basic investors will greatly stimulate the enthusiasm of retail investors. Alibaba’s public offering to retail investors is extremely popular. Currently, the entire Hong Kong stock market is in a state of boiling fire because of this capital feast. middle.

In the past two weeks in Hong Kong, whether it is Mandarin, Cantonese or English, the most mixed words are: Ali Baba.

Because Ali Baba's listing was the world's largest technology company IPO in 2007, it attracted the attention of the global capital market.

On Ali Baba's first day of listing, the opening price was HKD 30, a 122% increase from the issue price of HKD 13.5. Ali's closing price at midday was HKD 35.75, making it the second Longguo Internet company with a market value of more than NT$20 billion. company of.

Taking into account the amount of funds raised from the over-allotment option exercised after the market closes, Ali Baba's listing has become the third largest Internet financing in the world after Future Group and Gu Ge.

During the listing process, the company's CEO Wei Zhe said: "Our listing in Hong Kong is an important milestone for the company. Ali was founded in 1999 to help small and medium-sized enterprises around the world develop their businesses through the Internet. Today, we Having become a listed company, our goals remain unchanged. We will use the resources and brand awareness brought by listing to expand our member community and add more value to their business."

With the listing of Ali Baba, thousands of millionaires were created overnight, and more than 300 multi-millionaires were created, setting a new record for the number of millionaires created by the listing of domestic Internet companies.

Because as long as employees have worked at Alibaba for three years, they can get employee stock allotment.

At that time, Ali Baba had approximately 4,900 employees, holding a total of 443.5 million shares, with an average of 95,000 shares held by each employee.

It has to be said that Ali Baba’s listing has created a myth of wealth creation in China.

When Future Group went public, it created 23 billionaires, 59 multi-millionaires, and as many as 513 millionaires.

Of course.

The wealth-creation myth achieved by Future Group's listing is of much higher quality than the wealth-creation myth achieved by Ali Baba's listing.

Because the rich people created by the future group's listing have units of rice gold.

As for the rich people created by Ali Baba’s listing, the unit is Hong Kong Paper.

For example, those 513 millionaires, if converted into Hong Kong paper, each have a net worth of up to 7 or 8 million Hong Kong paper, and the 59 multi-millionaires have a net worth of hundreds of millions of Hong Kong paper.

Looking at Ali Baba, although Ali Baba has created thousands of millionaires, the combined net worth of these 1,000 millionaires is not necessarily half of the total net worth of the 513 millionaires of Future Group.

so.

The wealth myth of Ali Baba long before its listing is only a record in quantity, but in terms of quality, it is far from comparable to the wealth myth of Future Group long before its listing.

But even so.

These thousands of employees achieved financial freedom overnight and were worth millions, which undoubtedly made countless ordinary people envious and jealous.

In 2007, the average monthly salary in Shanghai, the city with the highest average salary, was only 2,800 yuan.

The weekly average monthly salary in the city with the lowest monthly salary is only 670 yuan.

One million, for the current domestic people, is synonymous with richness, and they can achieve retirement life early.
