Top of the big era

Ma Pingshan's wedding.

The best man group is quite strong, with Zhou Buqi, Guo Pengfei, Meng Houkun, Ji Zian, Zhang Yinlei and Chen Dong all participating. The wedding took place in the afternoon at the church.

However, this is Denmark, a "barbarian land" in Europe. It is not an orthodox religious territory. The wedding process is not so serious. The priest is not necessary. It is mainly about joy.

The woman has just graduated from high school and will only be a freshman in September this year.

Just one month into her freshman year, she got married, so she called her good sisters from college and high school, 13 in total, and the group of bridesmaids was extremely large. A group of young girls with particularly charming charm performed a dance with local Danish characteristics and received bursts of applause.

Zhou Buqi can't do it here.

The business of this group is good, but the talent show is really unsatisfactory. We rehearsed briefly last night and decided to sing a song to express our feelings. It is the Chinese song "For You".

Xu Baihui and Xue Baoshan also participated.

Xue Baoshan played the piano like an elegant and quiet princess in a Danish fairy tale; Xu Baihui was even more amazing, standing pretty beside the piano and turning into a violin goddess who stunned the whole audience.

Accompanied by music, the groomsmen sang a soulful song.

Although most of the foreign relatives and friends present did not understand the Chinese songs, they all felt the blessings conveyed in the music and responded with warm applause.

The atmosphere at the wedding was particularly pleasant.

A very important reason is that almost no one here knows people like Zhou Buqi, Guo Pengfei, and Meng Houkun, and they have no idea that the total worth of this groomsmen group may reach a terrifying US$200 billion.

However, at the end of the wedding, someone still recognized Zhou Buqi and felt that the shrewd young man in front of him looked so familiar. When he asked, he was immediately stunned.

What a legendary Butch Chow!

World 's richest man!

The person who recognized him was one of the bridesmaids, a college classmate of Ma Pingshan's wife, an 18-year-old Danish girl named Emita. She is nearly 1.8 meters tall, with fair skin, long legs, green eyes, red lips and white teeth, and a slim figure. She is a typical Nordic girl.

The official language of Denmark is English, but Denmark is developed enough and has a highly civilized society. 95% of the population can speak English, 40% can speak Swedish, and some are proficient in Norwegian.

So there was no barrier to communication. Emita was so surprised that she opened her eyes wide, covered her mouth, and asked in a low voice in disbelief: "Butch? Are you really Butch? Um... Zhou Buqi , yes, it must be you."

Zhou Buqi smiled and said, "It's me."

"Wow!"

Emita looked like she was about to jump with surprise.

I never expected that I would meet the world’s richest man when I attended a classmate’s wedding.

Out of politeness, Zhou Buqi chatted with her for a few more words. This got us into trouble. This girl had no sense of distance at all. After a few words, she started asking for help, saying that she wanted to travel around the world but had no money.

Zhou Buqi told her that she could work-study during college.

Ermita said: "I know, I want to be a part-time model."

Zhou Buqi smiled and said, "Okay, that's a great choice. I also think you have the potential to become a supermodel."

"But I don't know anything," Emita begged helplessly, "Butch...Mr. Zhou, I know you are the boss of Universal Pictures. You must know many people in the modeling industry, right? "

Zhou Buqi didn't want to talk to her.

So what if you are beautiful?

Only by licking the dog can everything be answered.

Zhou Buqi shook his head and declined: "I'm sorry, I really don't know him very well. Universal Pictures is indeed my company, but it is a film company and is far from the modeling industry. Moreover, I am in management I don’t know much about the specific industry. And the most important point is that Universal Pictures’ network is all in the United States. You are studying in university in Denmark, how can you work part-time in the United States?”

…

Zhou Buqi did not own any property in Denmark and stayed in hotels with other friends.

It's not easy to sleep in.

He is thick-skinned and not afraid, but he has to take care of Baoshan's face.

If you hold her in your arms for a long time and don't come out, it will easily lead to some jokes. Maybe you got up late because you overworked last night.

Don't give them this opportunity to joke.

Sit down and have breakfast together.

Zhou Buqi arrived quite early. Guo Pengfei and Chen Dong were already there, chatting about something.

When I got closer, I realized that they were talking about going public.

Guo Pengfei seems to be really excited, and he is obsessed with getting Ziweixing listed, and then looking for new challenges... Zhou Buqi is not sure whether it has something to do with his arrangement.

He handed over all the power of Ziweixing to Zhang Yiming.

When Guo Pengfei reaches this level, he is inevitably a little tempted, and he also wants to have a career that he can control by himself, just like Chen Dong. Although Jingtao's market value is "only" about 16 billion US dollars, it is a one-man business. Envious.

Zhou Buqi sighed a little, people's hearts are complicated, and it seems a bit difficult to keep him in Ziwei Star to look after the family and business.

However, this is not a bad thing.

In the past, the "Ten School Entrepreneurship Alliance" was focused on the domestic market.

Not to mention winning every battle, it can also be said to mean fighting wherever you go.

Jieyu Media and Yuanwei Group have both gone public, Bajixing has become a global leader in consumer drones, and Fantuan.com has also gathered and integrated the group buying industry and explored the takeout market...

It seems that now they want to form a group to conquer overseas markets.

First promote the listing of Ziweixing.

Stabilize the domestic base camp, and then hand over the company to a group of young and trustworthy people such as Zhang Yiming, Liang Rubo, Zhou Feng, Wang Xiaochuan, Nie Caijun, Pei Yao, Jiang Zhiyong, etc.

Then, the Ten School Entrepreneurship Alliance organized a group to study abroad.

Studying abroad is fake, but studying the market environment and understanding the local customs is the real thing, right?

Maybe it's the same scene as when I was an undergraduate. It was Boss Zhou who led everyone to start a business while going to school, but he just put the entrepreneurial battlefield abroad.

Zhou Buqi was a little absent-minded.

I feel like I don’t have this kind of energy anymore, and I don’t know if it’s all wasted on women. Guo Pengfei seems to be full of fighting spirit and has greater ambitions and pursuits for his future career. It seems that he is a strict wife.

"Hey, what are you thinking about?"

Seeing that he was in a daze, Guo Pengfei knocked on the table lightly.

"Oh?" Zhou Buqi looked at him, "What's wrong?"

Guo Pengfei said: "I just said that Alibaba has delisted from Hong Kong Island."

"oh, I know."

Zhou Buqi nodded. He had known about it for a long time and even got inside information from Boss Ma.

Guo Pengfei said: "Alibaba has already said that this delisting from the Hong Kong government is just the beginning of the next stage. They intend to take back the B2B business, and then promote the Alibaba Group to be listed on Hong Kong Island as a whole, so as to make up for the past few years. Island investors have suffered losses on Alibaba stock."

Zhou Buqi said: "It's nonsense, you're deceiving people!"

After Alibaba delisted from the Hong Kong government, the public opinion trend was that Alibaba would go public in Hong Kong as a whole next step, and many people really took it seriously.

In fact, an insider would know it is fake at a glance.

Chen Dong said with a smile: "The shareholding ratio of Alibaba's senior management team is too low. They will definitely take advantage of the free period of delisting to re-formulate the equity system to ensure that the management headed by Boss Ma has absolute control over Alibaba. Right. I guess it’s the model of AB shares.”

Guo Pengfei nodded, "Well, that's the only way."

Chen Dongdao: "AB shares are not allowed on Hong Kong Island."

Guo Pengfei said: "This is also a major difficulty for Ziweixing to go public on Hong Kong Island. If the Hong Kong Stock Exchange does not make institutional changes, these big domestic technology companies... will be in trouble!"

Ziweixing plans to go public next year, and it will definitely be an AB share model.

However, the Hong Kong Stock Exchange does not allow AB shares.

This has caused trouble for Ziweixing's listing in Hong Kong. Consultations will be needed to tentatively discuss this matter in the future.

However, this is not the most fundamental reason.

The restrictions on AB shares are very simple. Just let the Hong Kong Stock Exchange amend its rules and allow the existence of the AB share model. In the future, mainland technology stocks listed in the United States can be listed in Hong Kong for the second time.

But the size of the capital pool is a real bottleneck that is difficult to change.

Zhou Buqi said: "The domestic e-commerce industry is developing so fast. When Alibaba goes public in two years, the market value is guaranteed to exceed US$100 billion, and may even reach US$200 billion. If an IPO is launched, at least it will have to raise funds. With a capital of US$20 billion, the Hong Kong government does not have such a big deal.”

Chen Dong smiled and said, "Yes, this is the most critical factor. Unless Alibaba fails and goes downhill, there will be no room for listing in Hong Kong."

Currently, the world's largest exchange is the New York Stock Exchange, with annual IPO fundraising reaching US$25 billion. Next is Nasdaq, which raised about US$22 billion for the year.

This is a hard condition.

The pool is only so big and the money is so much.

For example, Facebook was listed on Nasdaq in May this year. In a wave of super IPOs, the financing scale reached US$16.5 billion... Well, after one IPO, it almost sucked all the blood of Nasdaq for the whole year. .

Under such circumstances, it would be best for Ziweixing Digital Media not to list on the Nasdaq. It would be best to list on the London Stock Exchange.

Purple MSI Global will be launched in December this year. This news was released early, and it spread to the whole world last year. This is now the world's largest entertainment giant, with a market value that can steadily exceed US$100 billion, or even reach US$150 billion.

After an IPO, the amount of funds raised will reach at least 15 billion US dollars.

Therefore, Ziweixing Global can only choose to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange. The blood of Nasdaq has been drained by Facebook, so it can only go to the New York Stock Exchange to draw blood.

This year's listing of two giants, Facebook and Ziweixing Global, has injected great vitality into the financial market. It has also caused many medium and large IPO plans to be postponed. No one dares to withstand the pressure of these two giants. IPO. In that case, it is very likely that the listing will fail due to "shortage" in the market.

Some small companies that have raised hundreds of millions of dollars are not under any pressure and can boldly IPO, such as YY, which will be listed next month.

Alibaba's future listing will undoubtedly be a major IPO case.

There are only two options.

Either go to the New York Stock Exchange or go to the Nasdaq.

The Hong Kong Stock Exchange is not good at all.

The Hong Kong Stock Exchange is the fourth largest exchange in the world, after the New York Stock Exchange, Nasdaq, and Tokyo Stock Exchange. The IPO fundraising amount for the whole year is less than 12 billion US dollars... In other words, the Hong Kong Stock Exchange All the blood produced in one year was not enough to supply Ali.

So here comes the key point.

Alibaba will definitely go public in the United States.

For such a super IPO, you need to have a good talk with Boss Ma to coordinate the choice of exchange for listing and the time of listing, so as not to crash.
