Chapter 407 Closing and Market Value

On August 27th, when the sun was high in the sky, Liu Zhou slept until he woke up naturally.

Although I didn't run around all day yesterday, it still consumed a lot of my energy.

I was in a very good mood throughout the listing ceremony, the celebratory reception and the subsequent media interviews. However, being too happy and excited can also drain your mind.

When you calm down, your mind will also be tired.

In addition, she was provoked by Fan Xiaopang yesterday. She was also very excited because of the great success of Golden Harvest's listing. As soon as she got home, she fought with Zeng Li for several rounds.

They stopped fighting until both of them were exhausted. Liu Zhou was so exhausted both physically and mentally that he fell asleep soon after taking a shower and had no time to have a good talk with Zeng Li.

However, Zeng Li also felt Liu Zhou's joy when she saw his bravery and fighting skills.

It was rare for Zeng Li to see Liu Zhou so happy, so she just went along with him and accepted all his attacks.

She knew very well how much effort Liu Zhou had put in to ensure the successful listing of Jiahe. Now that his efforts had paid off handsomely, she was also happy for Liu Zhou.

At this time, Liu Zhou rubbed his eyes, feeling refreshed, stood up, walked to the window, opened the curtains, and the yard that looked like a forest park suddenly came into view.

Green always gives people a feeling of vitality and makes people feel happier.

Liu Zhou had just stretched when Zeng Li pushed the door open.

"Did you sleep well?" Zeng Li asked with a smile.

"I slept well, and now I feel very relaxed."

"Once you put down a big worry, you will certainly feel more relaxed."

"Not only that, it's also thanks to my wife's hard work last night."

Although the two were considered an old married couple, Zeng Li could not help blushing every time she heard Liu Zhou's jokes about the joys of the boudoir.

"You're not serious enough. I'm not going to talk to you anymore."

Looking at Zeng Li's slightly blushing face and charming appearance, Liu Zhou couldn't help but become interested again and hugged her in his arms.

Zeng Li felt the changes in Liu Zhou's body and said quickly:

"Not now, uncle and aunt are waiting for us to eat downstairs, I came up to call you to eat."

Hearing Zeng Li's words, Liu Zhou had no choice but to let Zeng Li go and sighed:
"Why didn't you tell me earlier? Now you've made me so angry, what should I do?"

Zeng Li smiled softly and said:

"I didn't tease you at all. It was you who started to act like a demon."

"Don't laugh, wait and see how I deal with you tonight."

"It's still unclear who will take care of whom."

"It seems that now that I've become a billionaire, my tone has become much more arrogant."

"Hehe, so you better behave yourself from now on, or you will be in trouble."

"Well, if you don't get punished for three days, you'll tear off the roof. I won't have to wait until night. I'll punish you now."

After saying that, Liu Zhou picked up Zeng Li like a princess, and then they both fell on the bed.

Zeng Li saw that Liu Zhou was really going to do it, and immediately begged for mercy.

Liu Zhou was just pretending, after all, his parents were waiting downstairs.

The two of them played around for a while, and Zeng Li found some clothes for Liu Zhou to change into, and at the same time asked with some sighs:
"Zhou Zhou, are the Jiahe shares you gave me really worth thirty or four billion now?"

"Of course it's true. Now that Jiahe has gone public, you can calculate how much your shares are worth."

"But I still feel like I'm dreaming. This money came too easily."

"Is thirty or four billion a lot? If you keep the shares of Golden Harvest, you will become a billionaire in less than three years!"

Jiahe's stock issue price was four yuan, and it opened at six yuan and eighty yesterday. It then surged, with the highest price reaching 28.2. The market value of Jiahe Group once reached more than seventy billion yuan.

Although the stock price fell back afterwards, it still closed at 17.6. Compared with the issue price, Jiahe’s stock price more than quadrupled.

At the close of the first day of listing, Golden Harvest Group had a market value of 528 billion, making it a well-deserved giant company in mainland China.

The market value of a film and television company reached more than 50 billion yuan, which directly shocked the entire mainland business community.

So when Jiahe held a press conference in the evening, dozens of large media outlets came temporarily, including some large official media outlets.

To be honest, Liu Zhou did not expect that with such a large scale of Jiahe, its stock price could rise fourfold after its listing.

In the original time and space, Huayi's stock price increased twenty or thirty times after its listing, but that was because Huayi was small. Even if it increased twenty or thirty times, its market value was only more than 12 billion when Huayi closed on the first day.

Despite this, Huayi has also attracted the attention of the mainland business community.

Liu Zhou thought that if Jiahe had a market value of 20 to 30 billion after its listing, he would be satisfied. But unexpectedly, it reached more than 50 billion.

This is not just a simple increase of 10 or 20 billion. The higher the market value, the harder it is to grow in the future. However, Liu Zhou is of course very happy to have such an achievement, which shows that the film and television industry market is larger than he imagined, and the outside world pays more attention to the film and television industry than he imagined.

Liu Zhou's efforts to stimulate Golden Harvest's stock price before the listing were not in vain.

If we calculate based on the first day of listing, the market value of Jiahe is 528 billion yuan, and Liu Zhou's shares after dilution from the listing are still 38.25%, worth 201.96 billion yuan, or nearly 202 billion yuan.

In addition, the share prices of Sina and Penguin have also fully recovered. Liu Zhou should no longer be the second this year, and he should have no problem winning the title of the richest man in mainland China this year.

Zeng Li originally owned 7.5% of Golden Harvest shares, and after dilution she still had 39.6%, worth billion yuan, making her a truly wealthy woman.

Even in the age of traffic, when the output value of the entertainment industry was hundreds of billions, there were only a handful of stars or directors whose net worth could reach 4 billion, let alone now.

When the era of traffic really comes, if Liu Zhou still cannot make the market value of Jiahe Group exceed 100 billion, it would be a failure.

At its peak, Huayi’s market value exceeded 100 billion yuan, so there’s no reason why Golden Harvest can’t do the same.

Moreover, Liu Zhou would not be like Wang Zhongjun who threw away the core of Huayi to engage in entertainment real estate, only to end up with a mess.

Therefore, Liu Zhou’s goal is not only to maintain Jiahe’s market value of 100 billion yuan, but also to strive to break through 200 billion yuan.

Zeng Li's 7.5% stake will be worth at least 10 billion yuan in the future, and this net worth will definitely allow her to be included in the Forbes list of richest women.

However, Zeng Li's current net worth of 39.6 billion seems to be enough to make it into the Forbes list of richest women.

However, in order to avoid being too conspicuous, Zeng Li's shares in Jiahe, like Zhang Tong's, are not directly held by an individual.

Liu Zhou also set up an investment company for Zeng Li, and then used two disguises to put the 7.5% of Jiahe shares under the name of her investment company.

Therefore, when Forbes magazine wanted to compile a list of the richest women, it would be difficult to find out that Zeng Li and Zhang Tong both owned so many shares in Golden Harvest.

The shareholders of Golden Harvest are relatively simple, consisting of two companies, CITIC Group and China Film Group, and the company's executives own a portion of the shares.

But whether it is CITIC and China Film, or Golden Harvest executives, none of them owns many shares, no more than 10%.

Therefore, in the list of shareholders in the listing report disclosed by Jiahe, in addition to Liu Zhou, two investment institutions each holding 10% of Jiahe Group are very conspicuous.

This attracted the curiosity of many financial media and financial media people, and caused quite a stir at the time.

Some people also wanted to investigate the situation of these two investment companies, but found that they could not find out anything at all.

Therefore, the outside world speculated at that time that these two investment companies were Liu Zhou's shell companies, and in order to be less conspicuous, they dispersed the shares.

At that time, many media came to interview him about this matter, but Liu Zhou did not respond.

In fact, their guess was not too wrong. These two investment companies were indeed similar to Liu Zhou's vests. After all, although the ownership was under the names of Zeng Li and Zhang Tong, the rights and interests of the shares were all held by the same person.

In fact, for someone who really has some power, it is easy to find out that the bosses of these two investment companies are Zeng Li and Zhang Tong.

But they would not tell anyone about it. Since Liu Zhou was wearing a vest to avoid being discovered, he wanted to keep it secret.

They would be stupid to offend Liu Zhou because of such a thing. Exposing the situation would do them no good and would not have any impact other than disgusting Liu Zhou.

But it is very likely to lead to revenge from Liu Zhou.

Liu Zhou is no longer a small figure. He has been the second richest man in mainland China for several years. In recent years, he has also consolidated his network of relationships.

So generally speaking, no one wants to offend him.

Even if there were someone who had the strength or power to control Liu Zhou, they wouldn't dare to go too far.

Firstly, Liu Zhou has always operated legally, and his companies are all emerging companies, so there is nothing to hold against him.

Secondly, he is not only the boss of the company, but also a very popular public figure and an officially certified youth role model.

The most important point is that Liu Zhou owns the well-known media platform Sina Portal. Even if anyone dares to use abnormal means to deal with him, they will not be able to silence him.

For those who rely on power, the most feared thing is the influence of public opinion.

With his extremely high popularity and a large media platform, Liu Zhou can stir up a public opinion storm in a matter of minutes.

Therefore, Liu Zhou was able to make those people feel cautious.

This is also the biggest reason why Liu Zhou was eager to acquire Sina Group, and it is also the biggest reason why he listed Sina Portal as a key business after acquiring Sina.

Liu Zhou has no one to back him up and has to rely on himself for everything, so he feels insecure about his huge wealth.

Liu Zhou can only use his own way to give himself more sense of security.

So far, Sina Group has given him a lot of help. Until now, he has not encountered anyone who wants to kill him like a pig.

Now that Golden Harvest is listed and its market value is still so high, Liu Zhou's reputation and influence have also reached a new level.

Unless Liu Zhou himself is stupid enough to fall into the other party's trap, it will be even more difficult for them to use unconventional means against him.

At this time, the media's focus is almost entirely on Jiahe and Liu Zhou. Eight out of ten newspapers are reporting on him and Jiahe.

Liu Zhou's fame and influence also officially began to break through the circle and move towards becoming a national figure.
