On a very ordinary Monday in mid-July, the early morning sun has not yet risen from the high-rise buildings in Manhattan. The New York Stock Exchange on the south side of the corner of Wall Street and Broadway is crowded with people.
Among them, there are ordinary investors waiting for the New York Stock Exchange to open, as well as media reporters holding formative guns.
They are all waiting for one thing, a major event in the stock market-Netflix will be listed!
"The listing of new stocks, such treatment..."
Mario, a professional reporter from The Wall Street Journal, said to his colleagues next to him: "It's been a long time."
The female reporter from the "New York Times" looked at hundreds of colleagues gathered nearby and said: "Last year when Google went public, there was no such a great scene, right?"
Mario said with a smile: "Google goes public, has the New York Times sent someone?"
"No." The female reporter was quite sure of this: "No one came to report."
Mario said: "Using Wall Street's comments, this is the most sensational IPO since 2000."
The other party is a media that specializes in financial reporting. The female reporter specifically asked: "What about the attitude of Wall Street?"
"They all smelled blood." Mario said: "I want to share it urgently, so Netflix's stock doesn't worry about selling."
The female reporter exclaimed: "A new super rich is about to be born."
Mario deliberately corrected: "Ronan Anderson is already a super rich man."
The female reporter nodded gently: "The richest young man in America." She noticed a commotion in the crowd, and hurriedly went to see and said, "Come!"
A black Rolls-Royce Phantom crossed Broadway and stopped in front of the New York Stock Exchange. The door was opened by a bodyguard coming from behind. Three people got out of the car, which is what the financial securities market is paying more attention to. Ronan Anderson, Robert Iger and Mark Randolph.
The leaders of Goldman Sachs and Nasdaq who were already waiting in front of the New York Stock Exchange immediately greeted them.
The media reporters raised their cameras and took photos almost frantically. If it hadn't been blocked by many security personnel, the wave of reporters would be enough to overwhelm the group.
The female reporter was also taking pictures and said: "I didn't expect Ronan Anderson to look so young."
Mario said: "This is a wealth myth!"
"So rich and so handsome!" The female reporter lamented: "God is too unfair!"
Mario echoed: "God is always so unfair!"
A group of people are shaking hands at the gate of the New York Stock Exchange.
Goldman Sachs President and Chief Operating Officer Lloyd Blankfein said to Ronan: "We have been looking forward to this day for a long time."
Ronan said politely: "Thank Goldman Sachs for its operation."
The media reporter's camera was basically aimed at Ronan, and the frequency of flashing off the lights was so fast that it was too late to blink.
No way, almost all of Netflix’s shares are under the control of Relativity Entertainment, and the equity of Relativity Entertainment is basically owned by Ronan.
The meaning of this is very clear to everyone.
In the eyes of the reporter, there seemed to be a line of golden characters flashing on Ronan's head-super rich!
"Please inside." A Nasdaq official said to Ronan.
Ronan nodded slightly, and walked toward the front entrance of the New York Stock Exchange first. He could feel that almost everyone's eyes were focused on him.
At this moment, he is a superstar in the financial securities market.
"Mr. Anderson, look over here!"
"Ronan, smile!"
The shouts of reporters kept coming and going.
Ronan was unaffected, smiled and nodded to both sides, and walked into the gate of the New York Stock Exchange.
In the main hall of the exchange, investor representatives and media representatives have been waiting for a long time, especially investors. When they see Ronan, they seem to see a walking dollar.
I don't know who is the first to clap his palms, and then the applause is continuous.
Ronan and the three shook hands with investors one after another. No matter what, Netflix's listing in the public's attention is not unrelated to the support of investors.
"Thank you." Ronan has always been very decent in public: "Thank you for your support!"
He shook hands with investor representatives one by one: "Your support is an honor for Netflix and Relativity Entertainment."
A media reporter who entered the NYSE asked: "Mr. Anderson, can you ask a few questions?"
Connie behind Ronan stepped forward and said: "After the listing, there will be a period of time for interviews with friends in the media."
The media reporter did not continue to ask, and they knew what everyone was waiting for now.
The head of Nasdaq said at this time: "Please go here."
Lloyd Blankfein also made a please gesture, patted Ronan, Robert Iger, and Mark Randolph and walked towards the place where the bell was struck.
"Relax." Lloyd Blankfein whispered to Ronan, "Everything is going well, there will be no surprises."
Ringing the bell and listing is a ritual, more of a symbolic meaning. In fact, the stock sales work has been done in the front, and the distribution business has already reached an agreement.
Ronan whispered: "Thank you very much for the support of Goldman Sachs."
"We are a win-win situation." Lloyd Blankfein said with a smile: "I hope we will have more cooperation in the future."
Ronan smiled and said, "There will be, and I hope to continue to cooperate."
The position of Wall Street in the capital market is unquestionable. Although it is full of vampires, it is also full of opportunities.
Both parties are at the forefront of profit. As long as each can see the benefits, there is a basis for cooperation.
Lloyd Blankfein suddenly thought of something and whispered: "Someone on Wall Street is absorbing and raising funds. It is said that they are preparing to enter Hollywood and the film industry."
Ronan thought of the origin of the name of his own Relativity Entertainment, and asked with interest: "They established a film company? Do they have an official name?"
"Not yet." Lloyd Blankfein said: "I will pay attention to this aspect, and I will notify you as soon as there is new news."
The place to ring the bell has arrived, and a large number of cameramen have already set up their cameras and waited here.
The Internet era has come, and Internet companies are different from traditional companies. Netflix's listing this time is very high-profile from the operation period to the bell ringing ceremony.
The eyeball effect has a considerable effect on the pull of Internet companies.
In the trading floor, countless traders, media reporters and investors looked at the large screens scattered everywhere, waiting for the moment when Netflix went public.
Compared with investors in large companies and institutions, it is difficult for retail investors to obtain shares in Netflix. Everything has to wait for the listing.
But Netflix's stock has been very hot.
A customer wearing glasses told his trader: "Immediately put a buy order after the market opens, no matter what Netflix's stock price is, all buy at a premium of 20%!"
"What about the quantity?" the trader asked.
"No limit!" The client's eyes were red: "All the funds in my account are mobilized. The more stocks I can buy, the better!"
The popularity of Netflix’s listing is far too crazy compared to Google last year. This customer thinks he has a very clear view that Google can only rely on a single business and its stock price can soar all the way, while a company with multiple popular Internet businesses What about Netflix?
The future will only rise even crazier!
If you don’t start now, you will only regret it in the future!
Because the case of Google's stock price skyrocketing after its listing, coupled with the huge business of Netflix itself, and its leading position in the industry, it has attracted countless individual investors.
In the VIP client area of the trading floor, Richard Fuld of Lehman Brothers walked around anxiously, raising his hand to look at his watch every ten seconds.
"Be calm." The companion next to him reminded.
Richard Fuld said: "This was a great investment opportunity, but Ronan Anderson refused to cooperate with us! Damn! With the popularity of Netflix, how much profit can we make if the investment can be achieved? "
He was about to turn around anxiously: "First Ronan Anderson and Relativity Entertainment, then Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley. These are targeting Lehman Brothers. We are going to the NYSE to snap up Netflix shares!"
The companion next to said: "The competition on Wall Street is more fierce and than Hollywood."
Richard Fuld said: "Today's rush to buy is just the beginning. If one day, Lehman Brothers can become a major shareholder, I will definitely find a way to drive Ronan Anderson away and let him go from Relativity Entertainment and Netflix! "
The companion pressed his hands down: "Calm down, don't let the anger affect your judgment."
Richard Fuld took a deep breath, calmed down gradually, and said, "It's not easy today!"
Those remarks are after all just talking. It is not easy to buy as many shares of Netflix as possible when the market is optimistic.
Richard Fuld shook his head~EbookFREE.me~ I went to look at the watch again and waited for this financing feast to kick off.
"Mr. Anderson." The head of Nasdaq invited: "Please come here."
Ronan did not immediately step forward, but said to Robert Iger and Mark Randolph: "Bob, Mark, we are together."
The importance of Robert Iger and Mark Randolph to the company is self-evident.
The two did not refuse, and followed Ronan on stage.
The three of them stood in a fringe shape and posed together.
The reporters and cameramen on the opposite side took pictures and recorded this moment!
For Netflix, this will be a historic moment.
Internet companies need not only enthusiasm, but also huge financial support. Financing and listing is the most suitable way.
Lloyd Blankfein stepped forward to remind Ronan: "The time is up."
Ronan nodded slightly to Robert Iger and Mark Randolph, and the three worked together to ring the big bell of the New York Stock Exchange.
The crisp sound spread throughout the New York Stock Exchange, Ronan hugged his two partners one by one.
Inside the trading floor, there was applause and cheers. With the official opening of the market, the applause and cheers quickly fell, leaving only a busy day.
