Ordinary Road 2010

Apparently, Dai Wei hasn't realized that Lin Yi's future career focus is not on traveling thousands of miles, he doesn't even want to be the CEO anymore.

"In any case, thank you this time. Originally, we were just holding the mentality of trying, but we didn't expect it to be right."

"Old Zhu said that your ability to hurt people is [-] percent. If he hadn't pulled you, you might have fought on the spot."

Wang Xing's thanks should be sincere, but the latter words are pure slander.

Lin Yi smiled and said: "I said, this young master probably hated me, this time I offended him terribly because of your affairs."

"In the future, if Dai Wei gets rich again, and he runs to me and recites 30 Years in Hedong and 30 Years in Hexi, you have to help me."

Wang Xing comforted him: "Don't worry, there should be no such opportunity."

"With so many rounds of financing for Xiaohuangche, Dai Wei's own shareholding ratio is already very low, not to mention there is still a large amount of debt owed."

"In this transaction consideration, Dai Wei should not get much cash."

"Besides, you are recognized by the media as the strongest post-90s generation on the surface. Dai Wei should not be the only young man coveting your position. I believe you can handle it."

Lin Yi is not so easy to fool: "From what you mean, it seems that you don't plan to admit it?"

"Believe it or not, I immediately ran to Dai Wei and said that this time it was purely to cooperate with you to play a show with him. See if his little yellow car will sell you!"

Wang Xing was not flustered when he heard this, because he knew that Lin Yi was not so boring.

"Dai Wei is completely out of this circle. Even if he still wants to toss about new projects, he won't have investors to play with him based on his performance this time."

"As for other places, even if you two really have a day to meet again, the time limit may be 30 years like you said."

"So Dai Wei is nothing to worry about, but I understand what you mean."

"This time I owe you a favor, come and get it anytime."

Forcibly extorting a favor from Wang Xing, Lin Yi was in a good mood, and felt that this appearance was not in vain, and it was in line with his worth.

"You were right in one point just now, not everyone has the chance to be hurt by me."

"So you'd better pray that you don't mess with me in the future, otherwise, you don't need someone else to invite you next time, and I will send it directly to arrange your words."

Wang Xing was too lazy to argue, so he naturally agreed.

Lin Yi finally remembered a reminder: "In the future, no one will say that Dai Wei is like me. This is too serious and I feel that I will not be blessed."

"As for him himself, he should only feel that he is scolding him when he hears this comment."

Not long after their phone call, each group officially announced the acquisition of Xiaohuangche, a bike-sharing company, and this business crisis has come to an end.

Dai Wei, the founder of Little Yellow Car, has not heard from him since then.

……

Helping Wang Xing act as an extra, this is just a small episode of Lin Yi.

At the end of April, the new regulations of Hong Kong City Stock Exchange came into effect.

At the beginning of May, Wanli Travel basically submitted the first batch of listing applications in a hurry. After receiving it, it was listed on the exchange website on the same day, which aroused a wave of attention.

The essence of going public is to become a "public company", and there are several key points.

The first is ownership and control, "whose company is this?"

Wanli Travel has not been established for a long time, and its historical evolution is clear. Because of the relationship between financing and mergers, although there are many shareholders, the ownership structure is clear.

However, Lin Yi paid the most attention to the different rights of the same share, that is, through the way of AB shares to realize the voting rights with a minority stake, which is no longer an obstacle after the new regulations.

The second point is the business and financial situation, that is, "what is this company doing".

For this, Lin Yi did not start preparations from the day when the Kunpeng project team he casually mentioned was established, but from the time when it merged with Dudu Express.

There are other important factors too, but they all wait and see.

For example, on compliance issues, the participation of so many law firms is definitely not for the final issuance of a legal opinion on "Illegal Operation of Wanli Travel".

Another example is the amount of funds raised in the listing and how they plan to use them. They must also promise clearly.

There are always a lot of piles, so a prospectus can casually be thousands of pages long, with a lot of information.

Retail investors like to call themselves leeks in the stock market, and the reason why retail investors are retail investors is because they never read these things, or they don’t understand them.

It sounds complicated, but firstly, the business of Wanli Travel is mature and stable, and secondly, this is the first batch of large companies that have attracted attention after the implementation of the new regulations, and they have communicated with the exchange as early as the preparation stage.

Therefore, no difficulties were encountered in the process, and Wanli Travel quickly passed the hearing.

In the sales stage, after Lin must set the benchmark of "the pre-listing market value of 600 billion US dollars", he did not spend too much effort on it.

This price is only slightly higher than the valuation of the Pre-IPO round of the previous year by about [-]%.

Lin Yi's minimum goal is not to break the stock. If the market conditions are good and there is an increase after the opening, this profit margin can be reserved for investors who subscribe.

As for the road show, it is enough for Liu Jianni to appear as CEO.

Lin Yi arrived in Hong Kong City in early July.

He is here to attend the listing ceremony of Wanli Travel, but before his own company, he has to attend someone else's.

It's Lei Jun of rice.

Rice submitted the listing application almost at the same time, and the follow-up rhythm is similar to Wanli Travel.

Lin Yi and Lei Jun have some kind of friendship, because of the exchange of the acquisition of Musically, now the other party has also invested in his Pengcheng Automobile, which is a car manufacturing subsidiary that has been spun off independently.

Out of respect for the seniors, Lin Yi made a special courtesy in order.

The listing ceremony of Dami was arranged the day before Wanli’s trip, becoming the first mainland technology company to be listed on the Hong Kong stock market after the new regulations.

On the day of the listing, the rice market was booming, and there was a thriving scene.

After the ceremony was over, Lei Jun also invited Lin Yi to the listing dinner organized by them, which was another grand celebration.

"Isn't our listing ceremony scheduled for tomorrow? I have to go back and prepare."

Lin Yi declined the invitation. In fact, he didn't want to make any preparations for the listing ceremony. Those things were taken care of by his own staff, and Lin Yi could just follow suit when he arrived.

He is going to pick up someone.

"Long time no see, Senior Sister."

Chapter 632 Unifying Asia

It has been more than half a year since Li Moyan resigned as the president of Wanli Travel, and he currently does not have any position in the company.

However, she only cashed out half of the company's shares and did not withdraw completely, so she is still a shareholder of the company, strictly speaking, she is the second largest individual shareholder besides Lin Yi.

Coupled with her status as the co-founder of Wanli Chuxing, it is a matter of course that she was invited to participate in the listing ceremony.

"Hasn't Han Xue come?"

"I didn't ask her to come. Han Xue is not a little secretary at Muse. She is my most important right-hand man. When I am on a business trip, she always sits in Shencheng for me. She originally wanted to accompany me, but I thought It's best not to leave at the same time."

After the senior sister left, Lin Yi had very little contact with her, and apart from the public information, she also had limited knowledge of Muse's inside story.

"It sounds like you're traveling a lot now?"

"Yes, because Muse's business and development direction are mainly overseas. I have established an office in Singapore before, and the next step is North America and Europe."

Lin Yi seems to be able to imagine her working status, because the senior sister is always full of energy.

He originally wanted to talk about something light, but found that he didn't know how to speak, so he had to follow what the senior sister said.

"I read public reports that Muse's current user growth momentum is very strong?"

The senior sister nodded in confirmation.

"After taking over Muse, we increased investment in accordance with the agreement with the original management team and resumed the growth trend."

"Of course I spent a lot of money. To be honest, the high cost of acquiring customers from overseas users terrifies me. Fortunately, Goose Factory has given me a lot of support."

"Muse's domestic business is in charge of Han Xue. Although the growth is smooth under the impetus of the goose factory, there is still a significant gap between the byte and the byte."

Lin Yi smiled and said, "Zhang Yiming is an opponent that cannot be underestimated."

The senior sister replied: "Don't underestimate it. Zhang Yiming's first-mover advantage in China is too great, and there may not be a good solution in this regard in a short time."

"However, we are not underestimating ourselves. Our position in Europe and the United States is still unshakable."

"The first stop of his TT's overseas development is aimed at the East Asian region at his doorstep, but under our sniping, it is currently indistinguishable."

Lin Yi said, "I know."

Gu Caiwei told him about this, because GIVE ME FIVE led by Xiao Gu is now the global image spokesperson of Muse.

This title is a big one, but Gu Caiwei definitely didn't attach great importance to this endorsement because of it.

She often pays attention to the overseas promotion of Muse, so Peng Yuchen also had to pay attention to this, and then she made a surprising discovery.

With GIVE ME FIVE's active release of works, Peng Yuchen's professional operation, and Muse's official directional support, they have become the users with the most fans on the overseas edition of Muse.

The European and American markets are too far away, and the aesthetics and culture are indeed very different, so there is no splash at the moment.

But in the closer Asian region, especially the East Asian region where TT has spent a lot of effort to promote, GIVE ME FIVE is attacking the city together with Muse, constantly going out of the circle to expand its influence.

A phenomenal platform, and a phenomenal artist.

Peng Yuchen said excitedly at the time that GIVE ME FIVE, especially Gu Caiwei herself, is likely to be the first mainland female idol with a huge fan base throughout Asia.

If fans brag about it, it can be called "a woman who unifies the aesthetics of all Asia".

Gu Caiwei's amazing overseas influence has not only brought her many honors, she has become the only one in the entertainment circle.

Moreover, this effect, which has been named "Gu Caiwei Phenomenon", has aroused extensive discussions in the mainstream media and the general public, and everyone is talking about it.

After talking about how many years of pop culture went overseas, I finally saw something alive.

Except for a very small number of "dissidents" who are consistently cynical, most people believe that this is an important milestone in cultural soft power.

At the request of Gu Caiwei, Peng Yuchen let them enter the new platform of Muse. How did he think that there would be today?

As the actual controller and manager of Muse, Li Moyan is of course well aware of this, and can even be called the driving force behind the scenes.

In other words, mutual achievement.

Senior sister and Gu Caiwei, a very strange combination in Lin Yi's eyes, actually had a wonderful chemical reaction in an unexpected place.

Even so, Lin Yi knew from Gu Caiwei that she had never met her senior sister face to face when she participated in the Muse endorsement event.

This is certainly not a coincidence.

"Speaking of this, she kept telling me to let me thank Senior Sister on her behalf when I have a chance."

Of course the senior sister knew who Lin Yi was referring to.

"Needless to say thanks, although GIVE ME FIVE has enjoyed the traffic bonus from Muse, their existence has also played a big role in our promotion in East Asia. This is the reward they deserve."

"From the endorsement itself, this can be called a win-win cooperation with great value for money."

"If I have to say it, it was actually GIVE ME FIVE who offered us an olive branch before this collaboration, so I should be the one to thank her for her support."

The senior sister has always had clear grievances and grievances, but Lin Yi always feels that it is not a wise choice to discuss this topic with her.

"Did Muse encounter any obstacles in Europe and America?"

The senior sister didn't know if she noticed his changing the subject, but she replied: "I still encountered some obstacles, because the popularity of Muse in Europe and America is something that has never happened before."

"Although the regulatory authorities over there have not yet taken action, Muse can already feel their attention, and the reason is nothing more than data security."

"It is also to cope with this possible pressure, so we need to prepare overseas offices as soon as possible, and try our best to achieve local operations and local management to meet strict and even demanding regulatory requirements."

The senior sister is still on guard.

Lin Yi felt that their current appearance was no different from when they were discussing work together when traveling in Wanli.

Of course, the truth is that everything is different.

Thinking of this, Lin Yi felt a little embarrassed, and reminded him a little unnaturally.

"Beware of Americans."

The United States is the most important overseas market for Muse, and it is the most important foundation and premise for the further development of Muse.

This is not the first time Lin Yi has issued such a reminder, and each time it becomes more specific.

The senior sister understood Lin Yi's meaning, and he reminded him repeatedly when the acquisition was made, but after seeing what happened this year, it is self-evident where this advice came from.

But she wasn't too worried.

There are also some music short video products that imitate Muse on the market, but none of them have formed a climate.
