8{_y/u||5{ycgl)/Σ/yh7;9[How many people are waiting for this moment to come.\r

At this moment, Lucent Technology's then CEO Orlando Brian put down his work and switched the computer to the stock interface early, locking in a new Nasdaq stock that was still blank. It is ironic that when he was staring at Cisco, which was the opening situation of its "biggest" competitor company in the router market, the computer used Cisco's router and switch equipment.\r

At this moment, Jordan Belford, who was wearing a cheap suit again, used fake certificates to sneak into the Nasdaq Exchange in order to get rid of the unemployment after the "87 Stock Market Surgery". He was staring at the display screen with many stock brokers, waiting for the stock that was suppressed by them to rise sharply. Jordan failed to fool James Cameron this time, but he also successfully made a real estate developer named "Trump" foolishly hand over two million dollars to his investment. He is really a guy who is easy to be cheated of money, but this is also a win-win situation.\r

At this moment, at the Microsoft headquarters in Redmond, Seattle, Bill Gates was sitting behind his desk, with his hands on his chin, staring at the computer with interest. His friend Alice's own company was about to go public. He had just commissioned a transaction of 800,000 yuan, and was now bidding with other orders. At the same time, he was also guessing, just as Paul Allen sitting beside him thought, this time there would be no more negligent IT company, dare to make trouble when Cisco went public?

At this moment, in the office of the general manager of the Los Angeles DreamWorks, Roger Lawrence turned down all the work he should do, rubbing his chin while sticking to the blank stock chart. There is indeed no curve worth observing now, but as a professional venture capitalist who worked on Wall Street for a long time in his early years, he is staring at the small display screen of the call bidding in the upper right corner. It is worthy of being the old boss who has worked in his job, and it is worthy of being a professional company he actively recommended to Alice. Accurate valuation will inevitably bring a rich harvest to the opening. This is also one of the reasons why he also has large funds to participate in the bidding.\r

At this moment, James Wang asked for leave at home, staying in front of the computer with Sophie. Of course, Oscar and Hannah also took leave specifically for this. The whole family would stay at home and stare at the computer, but they would always be excited and could not help but wander around the room. Of course, James was the same. After all, unlike Microsoft, Cisco was established by his daughter, even if she didn't go to San Jose in person. He was so excited that if he hadn't known that his daughter could not be disturbed now, he would have been able to call San Jose.\r

Also at this moment, people in Silicon Valley and most of the IT companies in the United States are also watching the listing of the stock. Because everyone knows what the current industry is like. The computer hardware industry is maturing, and the PC side is gradually spreading to thousands of households; the new operating system is first released under the leadership of Microsoft, and the news that Windows 30 will be launched next spring has really increased the market value of this company; telecom operators around the world are accelerating the promotion of network infrastructure, and the convenience that the network can bring to the economy is felt by industry insiders. Therefore, when Cisco, the leader and leading company of the emerging industry of "Internet Hardware", is finally about to enter the stage of listing, God knows at this moment, how many lines across the country lead to the Nasdaq Exchange.\r

Should it be thankful? Due to the "exchange gate" incident that Microsoft went public last year, the Nasdaq Exchange has upgraded its hardware configuration. Not only has Cisco's firewall, switches, and routers installed, but also purchased many large computers from HP - no longer ibm. So, when thousands of data traffic flowed here, it easily withstood the test.\r

"One minute left."\r

Staring at the well-tuned clock, Alice said, "Fifty seconds!"

In the wide and full office of the technical department, pairs of eyes stared at the monitor, and their eyes kept sweeping around the y-axis of the opening position. The first transaction volume was historical data, and Cisco would never be bad!

"Forty seconds!"\r

But at this moment, Alice's heart was calm because she knew too much.\r

"Thirty seconds!"\r

To be honest, when Cisco was listed in 1990, as a stock of Nasdaq, rather than blue-chip stocks in New York and Los Angeles, its opening price was only seven cents. Its overall stock price only followed the great development of the 1990s, and its overall stock price had a standard "inverted horoscope", easily earning $83 in 2000, an increase of nearly 1,200 times.\r

"Twenty seconds!"\r

But now it is slightly different. The Posacks and his wife did not launch their first router until 1986, and the quality is definitely not as advanced as Alice. The product was launched late and the market expansion speed is far from comparable now. The switches of God's main force will not be acquired in 1993, not to mention the firewall that was launched early and was sold in a super hot sale.\r

"Ten seconds!"\r

Therefore, Cisco, which has developed in advance and accelerated the warm-up industry market, will inevitably make this listing on December 31, 1987 far exceeding the achievements Alice had set in 1990s. She had nothing to worry about.\r

"Nine seconds!"\r

The whole audience was silent.\r

"Eight seconds!"\r

Leonardo Posack remained silent, but anyone could see the cold sweat on his forehead.\r

"Seven seconds!"\r

Sandy Posack rubbed his hands nervously, and he almost jumped up.\r

"Six seconds!"\r

"Five!"\r

"Four!"\r

"Three!"\r

"Two!"\r

"One!"\r

Suddenly, a string of numbers was displayed.\r

1587.\r

"Fifteen yuan, eighty cents!"\r

"Everyone remembers this number for me!"\r

As the girl suddenly shouted, the whole office instantly turned into a noisy ocean. Seven or eight staff members stood directly on the table, shouting like crazy; the female staff members had no time to maintain their image, and the girls with hair tied hair were messed up, let alone those young girls with ponytails.\r

"Congratulations, congratulations!"\r

The executives hugged each other in front of the stage, and the Posacks were the first to hug each other and immediately opened their arms to Alice.\r

"Haha, fifteen dollars, this is higher than Microsoft's original opening price... No, issue price, haha ​​issue price!"\r

If the opening price is a big joke, who doesn't know that Microsoft is the direct cause of the "exchange gate"? The investment company responsible for the ipo has set up a high issue price, but the damn ibm used hacking to block the lively bidding, so that it could only open the market with a pitiful few cents. How could the individual case of that year be used on Cisco?\r

"It will rise, it will definitely rise again!"\r

"We are all rich!"

"Long live Alice! Hey, who, how many shares do you hold??"\r

"Guys, don't just cheer and stare at the screen!"\r

Under the influence of the voices of those who are interested, the hilarious voices gradually became much quieter, and everyone stared at the monitor.\r

Of course it is rising, but the amplitude is not surprisingly high, at least not as Microsoft did in the first place, soaring from a few cents straight up.\r

"Abstract thirty degrees." Looking at the curve, Alice nodded with satisfaction: "This pattern is beautiful enough, let's rise slowly. If we can close at 20 yuan, our returns will be indispensable."\r

20 yuan is only 30% increase, and it will definitely be achieved easily, no one doubts this. Unlike Microsoft, which only sold two million dollars in stocks when it went public, Cisco, whose monthly profit has reached five million dollars, easily sold fifty million dollars and distributed ten million shares at a five-yuan issue price.\r

In other words, even a 30% increase, including the current opening price, will definitely make the company's market value reach 200 million yuan!

Two hundred million...\r

Just thinking about it is a chilling word. After all, the development of the company is basically calculated over the years, and now it is only the first day of opening. A starting capital of 50 million yuan and a single-day net income of 1.5 billion yuan will be a little thought. You can tell how brilliant Cisco's development prospects will be even in a year! \r

"How could it be so high?" So then excited. When calm gradually returned, Posack first asked: "I also think the quota is too high when I was ipo. After all, we only have three years of development history. But now, the opening price of 15 yuan..."\r

"Because of the comprehensive effect." Alice looked at the trend chart and said: "Most companies are developing step by step normally, but we have encountered many emergencies. For example... the exchange gate."\r

When the executives around him burst into laughter.\r

Because this matter is really a big deal.\r

Although ibm has losses, he knows how many institutions have gained profits from it when its stock price is down. But to say who the biggest beneficiary of this incident is, there is really no one else except Cisco.\r

First of all, the strengthening of hard strength, that is, the large number of companies want to buy its products, and the number of orders is the direct culprit of the company's recruitment of thousands of employees in just three years. Even so, the offline manufacturers with limited productivity have to delay the transaction time of many orders. This is a generous, continuous, and long-term profit. Alice's few transactions from the White House and the Pentagon have not been able to reach so many.\r

Then there is soft publicity. Microsoft's listing has affected it, which naturally makes many people pay attention to network security issues. In this context, of course, countless people are looking forward to the vigorous development of Cisco. When the valuation of the IPO was initially valued, this soft and hard power had greatly added value to it.\r

"Thinking so..." Behind him was the extremely noisy employee talk, but Posack couldn't help but think more. His eyes swam on Alice: "At the beginning..."

"Today, everyone has a day off!" A sudden shout, Alice disrupted Posack's thoughts, making the long-term employees feel happy and quiet: "I know you must not have the heart to work today. On a day off, you will do whatever you like!"\r

It was over, and listening to the laughter of the big guys overturning the ceiling, Alice looked back and smiled at Posack: "You're right?"
Chapter completed!
