Chapter 216 Listing Planning
In this commercially developed place, it is indeed good to have money, and with the last banquet host's van taking away the garbage from the trash can, everything in the house, is not the slightest difference from yesterday.
After the excitement, the little guy was sleeping again, Huang Jingping screened today's photos on the computer, "These effects are good, I want to show them to my parents after returning to China,"
"What do you mean? That is, don't look at us hiding that you have a child, but we are still a qualified parent, and we are not left behind in what we should do for our children?" Feng Yiping said with a smile.
"That is, we are qualified parents,"
"Don't think about it, don't worry, as soon as they see such a cute little guy, they will be angry, and then look at a daughter-in-law like you, a son-in-law like me, it's hard to find a lantern, how can there be an opinion?"
"Hee-hee, I'm so thick-skinned," Huang Jingping joked at Feng Yiping, "I want to call both sides,"
She is doing this now, just like Feng Yiping called home on the night her daughter was born, all because she wanted to make a report in advance, and she could tell her family at that time, look, we always remembered you at that time, although we didn't dare to say it explicitly, but the phone calls were made.
"Let's fight, just don't say it's leaky now,"
If you accidentally say something out of your mouth, it must be either your parents and they flew over, or let the two guys who made mistakes fly back with the fruits of their mistakes.
He also wanted to call, first to Gao Zhiyi, "Yiping, it's summer vacation, when will you come back?"
"There are still some things here, it is estimated that it will take a few days, it is like this," Feng Yiping explained what he thought of in the morning to Gao Zhiyi, "Giving this task to the Magic Workshop is still a group competition." Let them come up with a plan as soon as possible,"
"How did you come up with this?" Gao Zhiyi was a little surprised, "However, what you said is really good, when I accompanied Li Jia to the hospital for prenatal check-up in the past few months, I went to the pediatric department to have a look." I often see a lot of parents take their children to measure their temperature, pay a deposit with a common mercury thermometer, it is really troublesome, and it is not hygienic, if we can design the finished product according to your meaning, at least those families with children will definitely buy it,"
"Li Jia is pregnant? Congratulations! What is the due date?"
"On the 16th of next month," Gao Zhiyi's happiness could be heard on the phone. "How long do you want this design?"
"Three months, tell them that they can go to the market to buy related products for reference, but the finished product must not have patent disputes,"
This thing, in fact, is not a particularly high-tech thing, and the reason why it has not been popularized on a large scale now is mainly because of the price. Now a few thousand yuan a piece, how many families will be willing to buy?
SARS is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for promotion. And it will be a win-win opportunity.
Hung up the phone, Feng Yiping was a little worried, Li Jia is going to give birth to a baby next month, so it is not good to leave Gao Zhiyi and them in the capital next year, wouldn't he have to be busy to death?
However, there is really no time to worry about this now. Today's schedule is full, and now it's time to go to the company's conference call, and tomorrow he will go to Sequoia, where he will listen to the latest report on the progress of the listing work from Auto.com and Yijia Express Hotel today.
Except that even Feng Yiping could hear that Cui Yunling was a little worried when he was reporting. Everything else was fine.
However, those who don't know may think that Cui Yunling has been working too much and under too much pressure for a while, and only Feng Yiping and a few of them know what is going on.
This person is going farther and farther on the road of not being immortal.
…………
Dune Road, although it is next to the Stanford campus, but in this year's Stanford career, Feng Yiping only really set foot on this road today, unlike the frenzy of Wall Street and the luxury of Palm Beach, this road is really simple and low-key to make people doubt, is this the Wall Street of the West?
Michael Moretz waited uncharacteristically at the door in front of a small building belonging to Sequoia, and it stands to reason that venture capitalists like them, who have a lot of money, have always sat in the comfort of their offices, listening to the start-up teams in need of investment to sell him, peddle and even beg.
However, in the face of Feng Yiping, who is not bad for money, and the project in his hand is very promising, but he lacks some experience in listing and operation in the United States, it is worth making an exception.
Originally, investing in small projects such as Jiasheng Automobile Network and Yijia Express Hotel did not need to be personally asked by a senior executive like him, but since Feng Yiping successfully invested in Google and he deeply understood the prospects of NEXTDOOR, Moretz simply took these two jobs into his own hands.
Feng Yiping came to the front of the building lightly, a little serious, along the way, he has been thinking very seriously about a question, should he also intervene in this road? After all, those successful high-tech companies that will appear in Silicon Valley in the future are all clear, and there is no such thing as investment being wasted.
However, don't look at his current personal pockets are very bulging, on this road, people who are richer than him, even if they have, are very limited, but his personal wealth, compared with any company on this road, is not worth mentioning, unless he also finds a few partners.
Partnership, forget it, it's amazing, those very good projects, just like Google, will be launched by themselves at that time.
"I'm sorry to keep you waiting," Feng Yiping apologized to Moretz, and then on the way to the office, he went straight to the point, "Is there any related work on Wall Street that requires me to come forward?"
Feng Yiping didn't have much to do with the SEC, but in order to go public, Wall Street acquaintances visited a lot, on the one hand, to enhance relationships and remove obstacles, and on the other hand, he was actually inspecting the underwriters of the listing.
"At present, everything is going well, but we all believe that it seems that now is not the right time for the car network to go public, not that it cannot be listed, but now that it is listed, the funds that can be raised are estimated to be not too ideal,"
"Well, on the whole, I also think that the car network may be late, for example, it will be more ideal to go public next year, but Yijia, I ask that this year must be successfully listed,"
He thinks this way because of the adverse effects of what will happen next year, SARS.
The spread of SARS has had a fatal impact on many industries, such as the hotel industry, where most hotels are crowded, five-star hotels, as long as you dare to stay, within 200 yuan.
After SARS in 03, avian flu in 04, its impact on the hotel industry is also negative, if Yijia can not be listed this year, it is best to wait until the year after tomorrow, and at that time, other express hotels in China, will also seek to go public, Yijia will lose the first-mover advantage.
For companies of the same nature, when the first one appears, everyone may be sought after, and two or three companies appear one after another, and investors may wonder if the market competition is so fierce, and the return will not be too ideal?
Therefore, Yijia's listing work must be paid close attention to.
However, it is still Feng Yiping's often recited sentence, things always have two sides, SARS has a very adverse impact on hotels and restaurants and many other industries.
However, because during the months of the high incidence period, everyone stayed at home as much as possible, the number of visits to various websites increased significantly, and the number of text messages sent also increased significantly, and the impact on several domestic portal websites was positive, which in turn led to the recovery of the domestic Internet industry.
Just as 911 promoted the sale of private jets, SARS also promoted the sales of cars, and those with that economic strength would think that it was not safe to squeeze buses or taxis, and it was better to buy their own cars, so it would be good for the car network to consider going public at that time.
"No problem, we have analyzed all the data, from the inception to the current financial report, and the foreseeable future, Yijia is a very high-quality company, we can successfully operate it this year, and we believe that it will soon be included in the Nasdaq China Index constituents." ”
Those don't matter, Feng Yiping hopes to raise more funds, and firmly consolidate the foundation of Yijia as the first brother of express hotels when there are not many competitors.
"Then I'll thank you in advance!" Feng Yiping smiled and raised his coffee cup towards him.
"We should thank you, and if all goes well, then this is probably the shortest time we have ever had between investment and listing. ”
Moretz, one of the four kings of Dune Road, said that although the investment amount is not large, the return on funds is estimated to set a record, and such a result is very consistent with his identity. (To be continued.) )
