Chapter 1752 Preparation for listing in Hong Kong
Wendy Gaobo originally thought that Li Mu would give him a chance to meet him, but unexpectedly, Li Mu asked the front desk to reply to him without any time.
Not having time is the most direct rejection.
Because if he just simply doesn't want to see himself, but doesn't want to break up, he can be said to be absent, not without time.
However, Wendy Gaobo felt that he could not give up. Since the family invited Li Mu to attend that salon, Gaobo family has been hoping to get closer to Li Mu. Not only did they regard him as a guest of honor, but they also gave him a Premier League club to cater to him. Even himself has already made preparations to contribute, but Li Mu has never given him such a chance.
Now, Li Mu turned his back on his face and kicked the goldberg family out of the car. This is a situation that the entire family cannot accept, so she now carries the last hope of the entire family.
So she stubbornly said to the front desk: "Please tell Mr. Li Mu that I will wait for him here."
The front desk had no choice but to report to Li Ziwei.
When Li Mu heard about Wendy Gaobo’s statement, he immediately said: “Tell the front desk, let her go, don’t worry about her.”
Then, Wendy Gaobo turned into air in the eyes of the Makino Technology front desk.
No one paid attention to her, but she couldn't get in even if she wanted to. Wendy Gaobo decided to spend it here to see if Li Mu would meet her.
Just as she was spending time in the hall, Li Mu had already gathered all the senior executives of Muye Technology and announced to everyone that she was interested in transferring to Hong Kong to list.
The Wall Street incident has been very turbulent, and I have heard of it in China for a long time, so everyone is very supportive of Li Mu's decision.
Whether to go to Hong Kong or to go to the United States, from a normal business perspective, it is the level of listing conditions, but now the situation has changed. American capitalists are basically a whole, not only venture capital, funds and securities companies, but also media are in the hands of these people, working with these people. On the one hand, they are trying to get a flaw with tigers, and on the other hand, they are also crossing the river. If they break up and local snakes attack them, the situation is also disgusting.
However, since you are interested in transferring to Hong Kong, you must first cooperate with securities companies with underwriting qualifications in Hong Kong.
At present, the largest brokerage firm in Hong Kong is HSBC, followed by China National Bank Securities, the former is a multinational company controlled by the Goldberg family, and the latter is a state-owned enterprise established by China National Bank in Hong Kong.
After 1997, China Bank of China began to vigorously develop Hong Kong securities business. After working hard for more than ten years, it has already had a very deep foundation. In addition, it has a state-owned asset background as endorsement. Even though its market share is not as large as HSBC, it is not weaker than HSBC when it comes to capital volume and financial potential.
So Li Mu decided to have a good chat with Huaguo Bank Securities to see what listing conditions can be obtained for Muye Technology. If it is appropriate, Hong Kong's IPOS will be launched in the second half of the year.
Subsequently, Li Ziwei, on behalf of Muye Technology, formally initiated an invitation to the talks to Huaguo Bank Securities. During the invitation, Li Ziwei clearly stated the purpose of the talks to communicate about Muye Technology's plans to IPO in Hong Kong.
Huaguo Bank Securities received a business letter from Makino Technology. The first idea was that it was a prank. When it was confirmed that the business letter was indeed issued by Makino Technology, the senior management of Huaguo Bank Securities was in an uproar.
The whole world knows that Li Mu has criticized Wall Street on Weibo and Twitter, and many people even believe that the credibility of the century-old Wall Street has been ruined by Li Mu.
However, everyone doesn't know that Li Mu has given up on the idea of going public in the United States.
After all, Li Mu went to the United States this time to attend Google's bell ringing ceremony. Everyone thinks that Google's successful listing on Nasdaq is a bridgehead for Makino Technology's listing on Nasdaq. In the second half of the year, Makino Technology should be on Nasdaq and become the Internet company with the highest market value in Nasdaq.
No one expected that Li Mu would actually start to consider listing in Hong Kong.
This means that Li Mu has decided to give up the Nasdaq subjectively.
Huaguo Bank Securities immediately organized a highest-standard negotiation team from the Yanjing headquarters. It arrived at Muye Technology that afternoon and was preparing to hold the first round of interviews with Li Mu.
Wendy Gaobo spent most of the day at the Muye Technology front desk. He didn't eat anything except drinking a few cups of pure water. After so long, he felt a little hypoglycemia, but Li Mu still didn't want to see him.
Just as Wendy Gaobo was hesitating whether to go back first, seven or eight men in formal attire hurriedly entered the first floor lobby of Makino Technology.
Li Ziwei came out to greet her in person, shook hands with the middle-aged man led by the other party, and said, "Mr. Chen, welcome, Mr. Li is already waiting in the conference room."
The full name of the middle-aged man named Mr. Chen is Chen Tao, who is the head of the securities business of Huaguo Bank. The securities business of Huaguo Bank in Hong Kong is also within his jurisdiction.
Chen Tao said excitedly: "After receiving your business letter, we immediately started to form a professional team and rushed over. Hong Kong is selecting team members. They will arrive in Yanjing tomorrow. They have been in Hong Kong, so they are more familiar with the business details of Hong Kong."
Li Ziwei nodded and said, "Then let's go up now."
"good!"
For China Bank Securities, Makino Technology is interested in finding them to make Hong Kong IPOS, which is like a great thing like a pie falling from the sky.
Before this, no one had any doubts that the listing channels of companies like Makino Technology must be rushing to go public in the United States. After all, the United States is still the center of world capital at this stage.
But now, the United States has "fouled", and Li Mu directly turned against the American capitalists, and this big fruit has fallen on his head. If China Bank Securities can seize this opportunity, it is likely that with this Makino Technology's iPo, it will become the largest brokerage firm in Hong Kong.
...
When Wendy Gaobo saw Li Ziwei, he wanted to go up and say hello to her immediately, and say a few miserable words to see if Li Mu could feel compassion.
However, before he arrived, he heard the conversation between Chen Tao and Li Ziwei.
Wendy Gaobo is very good at Chinese, so I heard the conversation between the two just now almost word-of-mouthed.
The content of the conversation between the two made Wendy Gao Bo very shocked. Although the content of the conversation between the two did not talk about ipo, when she mentioned Hong Kong, she immediately thought of whether Li Mu had already started preparing for ipo in Hong Kong now?
Realizing that the matter is important, she hurriedly took out her cell phone and called her father, Devinson Gober.
Devinson Gao Bai was still waiting for news about his daughter. Since he closed all contact channels by Li Mu, the only thing he could hope for was that his daughter who was studying in Yanjing could meet Li Mu.
However, he waited for several hours, but Wendy Gaobo failed to meet Li Mu.
This also made him feel more and more worried and less confident.
Suddenly he received a call from Wendy Gaobo, and he immediately answered and asked, "Wendie, what's the situation now? Have you met Li Mu?"
"No." Wendy Gaobo said in a hurry: "Li Mu has always been reluctant to see me."
As she said that, she said again: "I call here, there is an important thing. Makino Technology seems to have started working on the issue of IPO in Hong Kong. If I guess correctly, Hong Kong brokers have come to us."
"So fast?" Devinson Gao Bai's heart tightened and blurted out: "Do you know which brokerage firm it is?"
After saying that, he said self-deprecatingly: "It must be Huaguo Bank Securities. It is capable of doing such a large-scale iPod in Hong Kong. Except for us, they are the ones, and other brokerages can't play with them at all."
Wendy Gao Bai couldn't help asking: "Dad, what should I do now? Li Mu is the one who said it was the only one. If he really decided to be in Hong Kong, it would be basically impossible to change his mind."
Devinson Gao Bai said in annoyance: "Li Mu will definitely not slap himself in the face. It is a foregone conclusion that Hong Kong listing is listed. I have to go to China!"
Wendy Gaobo said: "Dad, Li Mu may not be willing to see you even if you come. It is likely that he will be a waste of time."
Devinson said: "I don't care about these things. Li Mu is in Hong Kong. We still have the most hope. Even if we underwrite it with China Bank Securities, it will be fine. If we don't fight for it, we will be really excluded!"
At this moment, Devinson almost hated his colleagues on Wall Street.
If they hadn't asked themselves to mediate with Li Mu, how could they offend Li Mu?
If he hadn't called Li Mu at that time, if he hadn't spoken for his colleagues, even if Li Mu was disappointed with Wall Street and turned to Hong Kong to go public, his relationship with him would not be greatly affected. Wouldn't it be the same for him to help him in Hong Kong at that time?
Now, damn it, for those greedy guys on Wall Street, I lost all of a sudden, and it may be the biggest deal in my life!
...
Li Mu met the China Bank Securities Team led by Chen Tao in the conference room.
After the core team members of both sides shook hands one by one, Li Mu sat at the top of the conference room, with Chen Tao's team on the left and his own team on the right.
Li Mu straightforwardly said: "Mr. Chen, the main purpose of sending a business letter to your company is to be interested in cooperating with your company to promote the affairs of Makino Technology in Hong Kong. Before the discussion, I have a few important questions and need to ask you for advice."
Chen Tao said: "President Li is polite, please tell me."
Li Mu nodded and said, "First of all, I want to start the roadshow in July and strive to be listed around October. Is there any problem with this time node?"
"This is no problem." Chen Tao said: "There is still half a year left, which is enough for us to operate."
Li Mu asked again: "If my goal is that the minimum valuation must not be less than US$450 billion, that is, no less than HK$3600 billion, do you think it can be achieved?"
Chen Tao said: "I have considered this issue before I came. To be honest, Muye Technology is a leading company in our domestic Internet and a leading company in the world. The market value of US$450 billion is not high. After all, during the Internet bubble period, many companies have reached a market value of US$500 billion or above."
Li Mu continued to ask: "I will use up to 10% of my shares for IPO, which means that at least I need to raise US$45 billion and US$45 billion for Muye Technology. Do you think your company can do it?"
Chen Tao said seriously: "Huayin Securities has not done such a large-scale IPOS, but we are very optimistic about the prospects of Makino Technology, and the market is also optimistic about the prospects of Makino Technology. Therefore, I believe that US$45 billion should not be a big problem."
"Okay." Li Mu said with a smile: "The last question."
