Hong Kong Island Comic Master

Chapter 171 Company Listing
"Hello, Mr. Li!"

"Hello, Mr. Li!"

As the task of comic serialization becomes more and more important, Li Wannian appears in the company less and less now.

Today, when Li Wannian rarely appeared in the company, he found many new faces and the company had expanded its recruitment.

Today, DreamWorks has officially exceeded 500 employees, occupying six floors of Chuang Hing Building.

The reason why he came here today was because his elder brother had something to discuss with him.

"Mr. Li, please wait a moment. Mr. Li is meeting with guests!"

Li Wanshui's current secretary is a young and beautiful one. Although not as beautiful as Zhong Chuhong and not as good as his sister-in-law, she is still a beauty.

Of course, to be able to serve as Li Wanshui's secretary, good looks alone are not enough, he must be very capable!Well, in terms of work.

She took care of Li Wanshui's daily work in such an orderly manner that even Li Wannian couldn't find any faults.

"What guests are you meeting?"

Li Wannian was a little curious that his eldest brother wanted to exclude him when meeting someone.

Moreover, since you have an appointment with someone, why did you ask yourself to come over?
"It's two securities supervision commissioners!"

After hearing this, Li Wannian suddenly realized and understood the reason why Li Wanshui asked him to come to the company.

Since last year, Li Wanshui has been promoting the listing of DreamWorks.

At this time, the management of listed companies on Hong Kong Island was very loose.

Even before the mid-1970s, Hong Kong Island's securities and commodity markets were largely unregulated and completely free.

This also led to extremely heavy losses in the Hong Kong stock market after the stock market crash in 1973-1974.

In this case, Hong Kong Island began to intervene, and then formulated core laws to regulate the securities and futures industry, and established regulatory agencies.

The current regulatory agencies on Hong Kong Island are two part-time supervisory committees (respectively responsible for securities and commodity trading matters) and their administrative officers (Securities and Commodities Trading Supervision Commissioner).

However, since these two supervisory committees are part-time, they lack clear work guidelines and cannot effectively supervise the stock market.

On the other hand, DreamWorks is now developing so rapidly and has huge profits. It is an absolutely high-quality asset.

Therefore, it is only a matter of time before DreamWorks goes public, and the two regulatory commissioners who came today are just going through the motions.

Sure enough, after Li Wannian waited for less than half an hour, the door of Li Wanshui's office opened, and the two supervisory commissioners came out chatting and laughing with Li Wanshui.

"Hahaha, you never participated in extracurricular activities at school. You were always in the library after class. We all called you a nerd behind our backs. Who would have thought that in just a few years, you would already be the boss of a listed company!"

"Where, you were in charge of me when I was the monitor, but now even if I become the boss, won't I still be in charge of you?"

Looking at the two people talking and laughing, Li Wannian suddenly realized that things seemed to be smoother than he thought.

My eldest brother is actually so familiar with this supervision commissioner?
"Big brother!"

"Wannian, are you here?"

After Li Wanshui saw Li Wannian, he quickly introduced him to both parties.

"Let me introduce, this is Commissioner Chen from the Hong Kong Securities Regulatory Commission. He was my monitor in college, Sir Chen. This is my younger brother Li..."

"Long live it! Who doesn't know anyone in Hong Kong today?"

Commissioner Chen didn't wait for Li Wanshui to finish his introduction, and quickly stretched out his hand to shake hands with Li Wannian.

Faced with Commissioner Chen's warm greetings, Li Wannian felt a little uncomfortable and said: "Hello... hello!"

"Long live my brother, you are now so popular that my little sister sleeps with your Pikachu doll all day long!"

Commissioner Chen gave people a refreshing feeling, and Li Wannian even thought for a time that he was not facing a government official, but a brother next door.

"It's my pleasure!"

"That's right, I'll have someone bring some dolls to Xiao Min later!"

"How can this work?"

"Aren't they just a few dolls, worthless! Do we still need to talk about this among our classmates?" "Then I will thank you two brothers on behalf of my little sister!"

After some pleasantries, Li Wannian followed Li Wanshui back to his office.

As soon as the two of them entered the office, Li Wanshui's originally smiling face suddenly turned cold.

Li Wannian was very surprised when he saw this, "Brother, what's wrong with you?"

"It's nothing. It's really tiring to deal with these officials!"

"Isn't Commissioner Chen your classmate? He seems very enthusiastic?" Li Wannian asked confused.

"Nonsense, I paid you! How can he not be enthusiastic?"

"This……"

Regarding this turning point, Li Wannian did not turn around for a while.

It turns out that the friendship between classmates that he thought was no match for money after all!

"Don't worry, it's just small money, not much! With their help, our company finally hopes to complete the listing before June!"

"That couldn't be better!"

Li Wannian supports the company's listing!

In the eyes of many laymen, they think that the company should not be listed because the stock should be 100% in their own hands!

Only in this way can the company be firmly managed in one's own hands.

But unfortunately, such plots are rare in reality, and even if they do exist, they are rare. Moreover, these companies often have many "advantages" that ordinary people are unaware of.

Because DreamWorks does not have these "advantages", and as DreamWorks' main business becomes saturated in the Hong Kong Island market, there are too many uncertainties in overseas markets, and the company's growth is slowing down.

Therefore, in this case, if the company wants to grow rapidly, the company must raise funds and go public. Not only can it obtain a large amount of money that can be used for investment, but it can also gain some outstanding shareholders and give the company special support in other aspects!

Only those who give up will gain something, like a rich man who hides all his money in the cellar. Such a person cannot do much business!

As for the control of the company, there is no difference between 99% and 51%!

"This is the best, as long as it can be launched in the first half of the year!"

"A-Nian, why do you attach so much importance to this time point?"

"Time waits for no one, my plan needs to be implemented in advance, and I am also afraid of changes!"

Li Wannian could not honestly answer Li Wanshui's doubts because he could not tell Li Wanshui that he knew that negotiations would begin in 82 and the Hong Kong stock market would plummet by then!

If you go public in the first half of the 80s, you will have at least one and a half years for financing and development.

If you wait until negotiations begin, cash out some of the funds, and then buy it back after the stock price plummets, how much more money will you make?
In fact, for Li Wannian, making money is a trivial matter. After all, he is no longer short of money!

The key is how much can he do with the money?

Some of the plans in his mind finally have the strength to realize them!

"Boom boom boom!"

Just as Li Wannian was thinking about the future, there was a knock on the office door.

"Please come in!"

The visitor was still Li Wanshui's secretary.

"what's up?"

"A reporter from Wen Wei Po wants to interview Mr. Li!"

"Wen Wei Po?"

Hearing this, Li Wanshui and Li Wannian looked at each other at the same time, and both saw doubts in each other's eyes.
