Fringe artists in the entertainment industry

Chapter 455 454. Everyone wants to spend all Chen Li’an’s money!

It was very quiet outside the president's office of Magic Flute Music. Chen Li'an was sitting on the small sofa at the door, reading a magazine boredly.

There were quarreling sounds in the office, and Chen Li'an's original worries were put aside.

Not long after, the door of the office was opened. Li Fuzhen came out and saw Chen Li'an sitting leisurely at the door reading a magazine. He was not nervous at all, and the last doubt in his heart disappeared.

Chen Li'an closed the magazine and looked up at Li Fuzhen and asked, "What have you sisters been talking about for so long?"

"Why are you so curious?" Li Fuzhen asked with a smile and narrowed his eyes.

Chen Li'an shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'm just bored sitting here."

Li Yinxin poked her head out from behind Li Fuzhen and blinked at Chen Li'an, then pulled Li Fuzhen and said, "I'm going shopping. You guys go get busy. See you in the evening."

"Well, I'll ask someone to accompany you." Li Fuzhen called his secretary to follow Li Yinxin.

After Li Yinxin left, Chen Li'an and Li Fuzhen entered the office together. As soon as they entered, they hugged each other.

After lingering for a while, they slowly separated. Chen Li'an still felt a little guilty about Li Fuzhen. He was really not a human being.

Let’s work hard to be a human being from now on!

After the two chatted in the office for a while, they went to another conference room together.

In a large conference room of Magic Flute Music, the entire listing team is busy here.

Chen Lin'en and Li Fuzhen were sitting in the corner of the conference room, discussing some details of the listing.

The plan given by the team is to release 5 million shares for listing and circulation.

The original plan was to take out more, but the investors of Magic Flute were unwilling to take any more, because the shares in their hands after the listing were all money.

However, five million shares are enough for circulation, and we can continue to split and issue new shares in the future.

The five million shares listed will have a total value of 85 million based on the set listing price.

The first shares accounted for 16.5% of the total shares, and Chen Li'an alone gave up more than 3%.

Based on the set stock price, Chen Li'an's shares can be exchanged for US$17 million.

The issuance price was set at 17 yuan, and according to the valuation purpose, the total valuation of the music on the day of listing was 510 million US dollars.

This price is tens of millions of dollars higher than the stock price of Sohu's IPO in Chen Li'an's memory, but it is not much higher.

However, listing requires a clear picture and giving investors confidence. Magic Flute Music's listing plan also includes other businesses that will be developed in the future.

For example, the popular Asian star music talent show is currently very popular. The popularity of Asian stars is also very popular in Europe and the United States.

There are already successful cases, enough to make all investors tempted.

In the listing plan, the management team of Magic Flute Music also proposed to imitate eBay to launch online shopping, records, headphones, music players and other music-related products.

In addition, there is also the development of music player products for PC and so on.

This is completely different from Chen Li'an's original plan, but when the company has developed to a certain stage, many plans can no longer keep up with the changes.

In the future, Magic Flute may become a behemoth, with a market value that may exceed 10 billion.

However, Chen Li'an has also seen his own end. In the near future, he may lose a lot of shares until he no longer controls the company.

Fortunately, Li Fuzhen is still here, and she will be the largest shareholder of Magic Flute Music in the future.

This can be regarded as compensation for Li Fuzhen.

Chen Li'an doesn't value Magic Flute Music's shares very much. To him, Magic Flute Music is just a small subsidiary and does not occupy a major part compared with his other businesses.

If you really want to become an Internet giant, returning to China to invest is the best choice. Whether it is Sohu, NetEase or Penguin, they all need investment.

When the Internet bubble bursts, Chen Li'an can enter the market to buy the bottom.

Next year will be a crucial year for Chen Li'an to become the richest man.

Chen Li'an doesn't like money very much, but he wants to make sure he has enough money, otherwise it will be difficult to support his wife and children in the future.

In Chen Li'an's plan, each of his children must have at least one billion in entrepreneurial funds in the future.

Chen Li'an doesn't know how many children he will have in the future, but it is always good to earn more.

Chen Li'an doesn't care about the Internet. If he invests in the Internet in the future, he will only give these stocks to his children's mothers and let them keep them for them.

Although Chen Li'an is not worth tens of billions yet, he already treats himself as a billionaire.

But when personal wealth reaches a certain level, money becomes just a number.

Just like now, Chen Li'an and Li Fuzhen are discussing Magic Flute Music's market value of several hundred million US dollars, as if they are discussing a string of numbers.

They don't feel happy or joyful about the wealth in their hearts. They just feel that the company's listing is a success and their life has entered a new stage.

Chen Li'an turned to look at Li Fuzhen and said, "You still own 25% of the shares. According to the estimated stock price of the listing, you are now worth over 100 million yuan, and you are the youngest female billionaire."

Li Fuzhen also had a smile on his face, but he was still not too proud. He looked at him and said with a faint smile: "I hope hundreds of millions is just the beginning, and we will have more in the future!"

"Of course. As long as Magic Flute Music's follow-up plan succeeds, you will soon be worth one billion." Chen Li'an held Li Fuzhen's hand and said, "Is the promise I made to you now considered complete?"

"It's not even half done until we ring the bell on Nasdaq."

"What about the other half?"

"The other half is you, I want to get married."

"Well, please don't wait any longer."

A trace of disappointment flashed through Li Fuzhen's heart, but he still said with a smile: "Okay, then wait. Now is an important moment for the company's development, so you can wait a few years."

Chen Li'an breathed a sigh of relief. He really didn't know how to reject Li Fuzhen. Li Fuzhen was too important to him.

Now Chen Li'an particularly regrets his actions in Japan. Why was he so confused at that time?

It's still too indulgent, so indulgent that you lose your mind!

After temporarily skipping the topic of marriage, the two talked about the situation of the Magic Flute player.

There are many brands of music players on the market now, including MP3 players and players using LNA format.

The competition in the music player market is not small, but friends have not been able to affect the market of Magic Flute, and the supporting ecosystem of Magic Flute far exceeds theirs.

Magic Flute even hired many people to spread free LNA format songs on the Internet, and searched all music manufacturers that did not cooperate with Magic Flute Music.

This was not proposed by Chen Li'an, it was entirely because a player company in Los Angeles started doing this.

That company uploaded a large number of songs in MP3 format to the Internet for users to download for free, trying to break the ecological advantage of Magic Flute.

Friends and businessmen no longer care about martial ethics, and Magic Flute naturally doesn't care about martial ethics either. First, they asked the music companies that were cheated to jointly sue, and then they secretly did this kind of thing themselves.

As long as the advantages of Magic Flute can be expanded, some minor flaws in early development can be ignored.

The competition among manufacturers is also invisibly expanding the entire market, and the expansion of the market is also promoting the development of technology.

This is a very good thing, and everyone is happy to see it. Only those music companies that have been pirated are crying in the toilet. Companies that have not joined Magic Flute Music now have to consider joining Magic Flute Music.

At least you can still make money by working with Magic Flute, which is better than those hateful pirated copies.

The funniest thing is that a few days ago, the music company lost a lawsuit against the company that uploaded pirated copies.

Those companies now have to consider cooperating with Magic Flute, and Magic Flute still pays conscientiously. If only Magic Flute music is left in the future, piracy will naturally disappear.

Sometimes things always develop in unexpected ways, which Chen Li'an finds quite interesting.

Real business wars are actually very funny, but they are also very dangerous. If you are not careful, you may be in catastrophe.

Magic Flute Music’s listing plan has been finalized, and now it only takes a few days to officially ring the bell on Nasdaq.

Chen Li'an, the major shareholder, didn't have much to do. He held a few meetings and signed a lot of documents before leaving.

Li Fuzhen was worried about these things and did not leave with Chen Li'an. He stayed in the company and continued to be busy.

Chen Li'an didn't go out to play, let alone go to see Li Yinxin. Instead, he went home to sleep alone.

The jet lag hasn’t come over yet, and I’m feeling sleepy as hell.

Chen Li'an slept until night. When he got up, Li Fuzhen and Li Yinxin were already back.

The two of them were eating in the living room. When Chen Li'an came out, the two sisters had no reaction.

Chen Li'an still felt that it was a bit awkward for three people to be in the same space, and it was because his conscience couldn't bear it.

While Li Fuzhen was going to the kitchen, he looked at Li Yinxin and asked, "Do you want to live here? You should have your own apartment in New York, right?"

"Yes, but I don't want to go." Li Yinxin glanced at Li Fuzhen secretly, and then whispered to Chen Li'an: "You don't want me to be here?"

Chen Li'an smiled and shook his head and said, "It's okay, I'm just asking because I feel a little strange."

In the end, it was Chen Li'an who failed to control himself. Most of the fault was his own. It was hard to blame Li Yinxin.

"What are you talking about?" Li Fuzhen suddenly came out of the kitchen and looked at them and asked.

Li Yinxin raised her head and looked at Li Fuzhen and said unhappily: "He doesn't want me to live here, he wants to live alone with you!"

Chen Li'an: "." You are so bold, you are not afraid of being discovered by your sister.

Li Fuzhen said with a smile: "I don't want to live alone with him. Let's sleep together tonight!"

"Really? Sister is so nice!" Li Yinxin said happily.

Seeing that Li Fuzhen didn't think much, Chen Li'an breathed a sigh of relief. It was because he was too nervous.

But this was not the way to go. Chen Li'an thought about confessing to Li Fuzhen.

When the time comes, it all depends on what Li Fuzhen says. If Li Fuzhen wants to part ways with him, he will give her all the Magic Flute music as compensation.

While Chen Li'an was thinking, Li Yinxin had already pulled Li Fuzhen to the bedroom, and when leaving, she secretly turned back and made a lip sync to Chen Li'an.

But Chen Li'an didn't understand. He wanted to stop her and ask her if she just spoke in English or Korean, but he couldn't understand it at all!

Forget it, ignore them for now, wait until the company is listed and confess to Li Fuzhen.

After thinking about it, Chen Li'an didn't feel so much pressure anymore. He would decide whether to live or die later.

In the next few days, Chen Li'an was not idle and acted as an automatic signature machine in the company every day.

Listing a company is very troublesome. There are too many documents and contracts that require Chen Li'an's signature and confirmation.

Chen Li'an doesn't even have time to see Jennifer, so it seems he can only wait until it is released.

Maybe after going public, if he confesses to Li Fuzhen, he will be kicked out of the house, and he will have to find Jennifer to take him in.

Time passed very quickly, and in a blink of an eye it was time for Magic Flute Music to be released.

There were two other companies listed on the same day, but Magic Flute was the most promising, and everyone was paying attention to the listing of Magic Flute.

That day's Washington Daily and New York Times had front-page news about Magic Flute Music. Outside the Nasdaq exchange, there was a lot of excitement, and countless investors and reporters gathered here.

Everyone is waiting for the launch of Magic Flute Music to ring the bell, which is the bell ringing for money.

Chen Li'an also looked forward to it, but he was a little regretful that the Nasdaq floor clock was electronic. Rather than ringing the bell, it was better to press the launch button.

Chen Li'an even suspected that the buttons on the stage were not powered and were just decorations.

Soon the time came, and Chen Li'an and Li Fuzhen took the stage surrounded by a group of people.

This was the most glorious moment of The Magic Flute. Chen Li'an naturally gave up this moment to Li Fuzhen and walked half a step behind her.

Li Fuzhen was really radiant today. He took the stage with confident steps and looked at the reporters and investors in the audience with great pride.

I finally stood on this stage and attracted the attention of the whole world!

Li Fuzhen stabilized his emotions, stood in front of the stage and said into the microphone: "Thank you everyone for choosing Magic Flute Music. Magic Flute Music is a young company, but it is also a company full of vitality. It belongs to the future and to you. In the future we will."

Chen Li'an stood next to Li Fuzhen and listened to her speech. He really found her very charming.

I had the urge to marry her in my heart, but this idea disappeared after a few seconds. Marriage would only kill love, so it was better not to get married.

Soon Li Fuzhen finished his speech, and the huge electronic clock behind him was about to count down.

Li Fuzhen turned to look at Chen Li'an and stretched out his hand. Chen Li'an smiled and stretched out his hand to hold it, and then they stood in front of the bell button.

The Magic Flute Music staff and investors at the scene all started counting down loudly.

Chen Li'an and Li Fuzhen also looked at each other and started counting down.

"three!"

"two!"

"one!"

When the countdown reached the last second, Chen Li'an and Li Fuzhen pressed the buttons in front of them at the same time, and the electronic clock behind them also sounded a crisp chime.

Fireworks also exploded on the stage, and colorful paper flowers flew everywhere, falling on the shoulders of Chen Li'an and Li Fuzhen.

Chen Li'an and Li Fuzhen hugged each other excitedly, and the smiles on their faces were captured and recorded by reporters.

As the listing bell rang, Magic Flute Music's stocks officially appeared on the exchange. Chen Li'an and Li Fuzhen turned to look at the huge electronic screen.

The stock price of Magic Flute Music on the electronic screen instantly changed from seventeen yuan to seventeen and a half yuan, and then to eighteen yuan. Every time the number jumped, everyone cheered.

Chen Li'an took Li Fuzhen's hand and looked at the numbers that were still beating, and said happily: "We succeeded, and you also proved yourself to the world."

Li Fuzhen was so excited that his eyes filled with tears. He watched with red eyes as Chen Li'an hugged him and kept saying in his ear: "Thank you, thank you. I couldn't have done it without you."

Chen Li'an hugged Li Fuzhen and said, "You will succeed without me. I should be the one thanking you!"

Li Yinxin in the audience looked at them with envy, envious that they could embrace each other openly and openly in front of everyone, while she could only stand in the audience and be a silent audience.

This photo appeared on the TV station's financial program that night, and many news programs even reported the news of Magic Flute Music's listing.

The main reason is that the stock price of Magic Flute Music rose directly from 17 yuan to 36.5 yuan on the first day of listing!

The stock price has more than doubled! Moreover, based on the stock price trends and expert predictions, Magic Flute Music’s stock price will continue to rise!

This directly made Chen Li'an and Li Fuzhen become super rich.

Chen Li'an's shares in Magic Flute Music were instantly worth more than 300 million U.S. dollars, and Li Fuzhen's shares were also worth more than 200 million U.S. dollars, instantly attracting everyone's attention and envy.

Time Magazine also decided to invite Chen Li'an and Li Fuzhen at this time. They will be the Global Person of the Year in 1999!

Especially Chen Li'an, you must invite him! A man with huge influence in both art and business must be on the cover of Time Magazine!

News of the listing of Magic Flute Music also spread back to China, and domestic newspapers and the financial channels of TV stations all reported the matter the next morning.

In Huayi's office, the big and small kings looked at the newspaper, sighed with envy, and then shouted something awesome.

Zhang Chaoyang of Sohu and Ding Lei of NetEase also saw the news and became more concerned about the listing!

I’m also going to ring the bell at Nasdaq next year!

These people were just envious, but some people were extremely happy after seeing the news.

Chen Li'an's girls were all calculating how much more than 300 million U.S. dollars would be converted into RMB.

Nearly three billion!

"Suddenly I feel I love him even more. I miss him after not seeing him for a few days."

"How do you spend so much money? Li'an doesn't even spend it, so I should help him spend it. The car I liked yesterday is a bit cheap, so let's change it to an expensive one!"

"The villa is a bit small. Isn't it suitable for us three sisters to live in it? Let the owner change it to a bigger one later."

"Mom! The newspaper said that dad is a super rich man, so I don't have to go to school!"

"."

Chen Li'an was celebrating in New York with the company's people at this time. He and Li Fuzhen became billionaires. The other shareholders of the company also made a lot of money. Several of the company's top executives also became millionaires in an instant. .

Suddenly you have so much money, you must spend it well!

Let’s party! Hollywood starlets and beautiful models are all here!

However, these girls have no fate with Chen Li'an. He can only be held by Li Fuzhen while drinking and smoking cigars with the senior executives of investment banks.

What a tragedy, there are so many good-looking girls who can only take advantage of their subordinates.

No one knew about Chen Li'an's sorrow, and they didn't even know that the girls in China were planning how to spend his money.

But even if they knew about Chen Li'an, they didn't care. They should plan slowly and wait for him to spend all the money before he returns to China!

Go buy an island later! Build a house on the island! Build the airport! Buy a plane or a big yacht!
