Chapter 131 The First Day of Huayi's Listing
On the morning of October 10th, Chen Weilian, the Wang brothers of Huayi Company, and a group of accompanying people chartered a plane to Shenzhen. They are all stars with relatively large shareholdings.

Because the number of people added up was relatively large, the proud Wang brothers waved their hands and chartered a flight to Shenzhen directly.

The direct flight from Yanjing to Shenzhen takes three to four hours. The reason why I go in the morning is because tomorrow is the time when the stock market is officially listed.However, there are a total of 28 NEEQ stocks listed in the first batch this time, and Huayi is one of them.

Therefore, this afternoon, the chairman of these companies will go to a rehearsal for ringing the bell.

The 28 people were divided into four groups, seven people in each group, each with a drumstick, and each group went to ring the listing bell, and then signed the first day cover.After all, this is the first batch of NEEQ stocks, so for the sake of caution, such a rehearsal was arranged.

In fact, the real bell ringing, from the perspective of a bystander, is not so interesting.However, the meaning for entrepreneurs is different. The company founded is affirmed by the market and can participate in this round of exams that only a few top students can take.

As for what the final stock price will be, it depends on the ratings of investors, and the final result is clear at a glance.

However, at this time, although everyone has a smile on their faces, they still can't hide their nervousness when the market opens. After all, if the stock price does not perform well, not only will the company's market value be ugly, but compared with other companies listed at the same time, It will also be dull.

Soon after Wang Zhongjun rang the listing bell, the shares of Huayi Company entered the inquiry stage. At 9:20, the 28 first batch of stocks listed on the New Third Board announced their opening prices in unison.

The issue price of Huayi Company's stock was 30 yuan, while the opening price was 65.66 yuan, an increase of 118.9%.

At this moment, smiles from the heart appeared on everyone's faces, and there were many people who were secretly calculating the price, and the Huayi stock they held was already equivalent to how much money.

However, this is only the beginning of today's rise. Just 7 minutes after the opening, there was a burst of exclamation in the hall. It turned out that a stock had risen by 20% based on the opening price, which triggered the circuit breaker mechanism on the first day of the New Third Board. Plate for 30 minutes.

Next, some stocks reached the circuit breaker one after another, and the stock of Huayi Company also rose to 78.79 yuan within half an hour after the opening of the market. When the circuit breaker was touched, the market also needed to be suspended for 30 minutes.

At this time, everyone can relax a little bit. Many people here are facing the stock market for the first time, and many rules were popularized on the spot.

In fact, today's price has little to do with everyone present, because the lock-up period of the shares of Huayi Company's Wang Brothers is 36 months, which means that it is impossible to sell the shares within three years.

The shares held by William Chen also have a lock-up period of 36 months, because according to the regulations of the New Third Board, shareholders who increase their capital within one year before listing need to lock up the shares for 36 months, so William Chen and the Wang brothers did not know before In these regulations, his lock-up period was only modified after signing the contract and asking for professional opinions.

However, William Chen did not plan to sell these stocks in the short term, so he took an indifferent attitude towards these changes.

And the remaining people who hold the original shares will be locked up for one year.Therefore, apart from the Wang Brothers and William Chen, other shareholders, including Boss Ma, the stars and directors, can only sell their shares after a year.

To put it bluntly, in order to protect the interests of investors, the shares of listed companies before the IPO will be locked for at least one year, so what is being traded now is the shares of Huayi Company's listing and financing, including the shares of participating institutions and shareholders.

However, these did not affect the mood of the people present, which changed with the rise and fall of the stock price.After Huayi Company's stock reopened for trading, the stock price continued to rise until the end of the morning trading time, and Huayi Company's stock was fixed at a high price of 86.75 yuan.

Calculated at this price, the market value of Huayi Company has reached nearly 170 billion Chinese dollars, and when Chen William invested in Huayi Company, the valuation of the company by the Wang brothers was only more than 40 billion Chinese dollars. In a short period of time, the company's market value has increased by 4 times.

At this moment, the Wang brothers experienced the charm of the capital market for the first time.

So in a happy mood, he continued to wave his hand, booked a nearby high-end restaurant, and led everyone to have dinner together.But I knew that I would continue to watch the market in the afternoon, and there were reporters on the scene to interview and take pictures. Everyone tacitly didn't drink, just ordered good food casually, and took turns to go to battle.

In the afternoon, just after the opening of the market, the entire New Third Board ushered in another wave of rises, and the stock of Huayi Company also rose to 94.55 yuan. The second circuit breaker, the trading was suspended for half an hour.

This is not over yet. After restarting trading, Huayi Company's stock continued to rise, with the highest price rising over 98 yuan, and the highest price of the day was 98.45 yuan, almost reaching the 50% first-day daily limit.

Next, the stocks of the entire New Third Board began to pull back for a while, until around 02:30 in the afternoon, the stock price began to stop falling, and the market began to fluctuate within a narrow range. At this time, the stock price of Huayi Company returned to the price below 80 yuan.

Finally, when the market closed at 3 p.m., the stock price of Huayi Company was fixed at 76.16.

This price means that the shares of Huayi Company invested by Chen William at 25 yuan per share have more than tripled. The previous value was 1 million US dollars, and now it is worth more than 3 million US dollars.

However, during the whole process, William Chen behaved very calmly. After all, his shares would be traded after three years. He had already expected the current price in his heart, so it was not a surprise.

But on this day, what impressed him the most was the changing expressions on the faces of the Wang brothers and those star shareholders. After this experience, it may have started the trend of many stars keen to invest in film and television companies, and then go public to collect money. The process is over.

A few years later, a certain media once interviewed Wang Zhongjun, and he said:
"On the day when Huayi Company went public, when I saw the stock price approaching 100 yuan, I wasn't really surprised. Instead, I was a little confused. I didn't know what it meant until people around me explained it to me. I just got a general understanding. But these are nothing but hypocrisy, the most important thing is to do a good job in the company.”

Uh, William Chen said that he had learned it. The expression on his face that was flushed with excitement that day...well, I may have misremembered it.

Now that he came to Shenzhen City, William Chen originally wanted to find a chance to meet the pony horse, but after thinking about it, he decided not to.I don't have a lot of capital available now, so I can't talk about anything even if I meet, so let's wait until the funds are sufficient.

After the stock market was closed, the group of Huayi Company did not stay here any longer, and directly chartered a flight back to Yanjing again.

On the plane, Wang Zhonglei specifically told William Chen that in order to celebrate the successful listing of Huayi Company, a reception will be held at the Shangri-La Hotel in Yanjing in the evening. Many companies will participate.

"I won't go. After the things here are completed, I will deal with the business of Huaguo, and I will return to the United States. There are still many things waiting there."

To be honest, Chen William is not very interested in these receptions. He might as well go back and look for information when he has time, analyze the current situation in Huaguo, and screen out some potential start-ups.

Hearing what Chen Weilian said, Wang Zhonglei patted him on the shoulder without hesitation, winked at him, and said, "I still need to know more about the domestic entertainment industry. At this opportunity, I will introduce you to a few potential new stars, and you can help me to see who is more worthy of training, William, as a shareholder of Huayi, you also have to fulfill your responsibilities to the company."

Uh, brother Wang, if you say that, then I really have to work harder.William Chen immediately understood the meaning of Wang Zhonglei's words, but it was not good to change his words immediately. He thought for a while and said:

"Forget it, it's also good to meet friends in the domestic film and television industry. Maybe there will be opportunities for cooperation in the future."
