Chapter 120: plan to go public

Of course, it is not so easy for Li Xuan to package Aikang as a promising emerging technology company recognized by brokers. At least the current scale of Aikang is not enough. For a large company with annual sales of over 100 million US dollars, if the total number of employees is only a few dozen people, it is not so convincing.

Therefore, Li Xuan decided to include the main board manufacturing factory of Dongfang Electronics as the assets of Aikang Company. In this way, Aikang Company has instantly changed from the original leather bag company to a large-scale electronic manufacturing enterprise with more than 500 employees and its own factory. At the same time, Aikang Computer will be recruiting on a large scale in the UK to form a complete organizational structure that an independent legal person company should have!

Going public is not a one-time thing. The pre-IPO preparation work for Aikang will take several months, and the entire IPO process will take several months. Even if everything goes well, it will take more than half a year for Aikang to successfully list on the London Stock Exchange. After that.

Fortunately, the British government's financial subsidy policy has only just spread. With Downing Street's urgency, it will be a long time before the policy is finally implemented. Aikang Computer has enough time to prepare and clear it.

Among the major businesses of Dongfang Electronics, with the performance of ABC personal computer listing, the computer sector will be in the limelight in the next period of time. But its glory will not last long. Not to mention the counterattacks of other competitors such as Apple and Kemodo in the market, when IBM's PCs join the fray in the second half of next year, the glory days of Aikang Computer will be over.

IBM's strength is one aspect, but the more fatal factor is that IBM's brain is out of breath, and it directly opens up the technical standards of PCs. Its original intention is to attract a large number of third-party accessories suppliers, while adopting IBM standards, it has attracted countless compatible machine manufacturers.

Since then, the PC industry has entered an era of completely transparent competition. Whether it is motherboards, memory, hard drives, or graphics cards, sound cards, chassis, there are a large number of manufacturers participating in the competition, and their products are compatible with each other.

This is unimaginable in other consumer electronics fields. If you feel that the domestic colorful graphics card on your computer is too low-end, you need to replace it with an NVIDIA graphics card. No problem, just buy it and replace it. But you have never heard that your Midea air conditioner compressor is not good, you can also buy a Gree compressor to replace it.

Throughout the 1980s, the PC market expanded rapidly, and hardware manufacturers could still make money. When the PC market is gradually saturated, all manufacturers have to grab food from others if they want to expand their share, and the competition will become more and more fierce. In the 1990s, it was Samsung in South Korea and ASUS in Taiwan, and in the 21st century it became Lenovo in China.

Making hardware becomes less and less profitable, but making software makes a lot of money. Therefore, compared to Aikang Computer, Li Xuan undoubtedly prefers the newly split Dongfang Software Company. The future Microsoft Demon King is still just a small company that makes money by selling BASIC interpreters. Who would have thought that IBM's PC machine failed to succeed, but instead let this little brother with his thighs ascend to the throne.

As for Dongfang Games, this is the golden rooster that Li Xuan can really lay eggs. Dongfang Electronics is now expanding rapidly, which is completely supported by the huge profits that several arcade games continue to grab every month. Even if the golden age of arcade machines withers in the future, the home game console market, handheld market, computer games, and more distant future online games and mobile games will all be huge gold mines.

Moreover, the game industry is not a sensitive industry and attracts much less attention. Li Xuan has no plans to list it at all. After all, with the current development status of Dongfang Games, there is no shortage of funds at all, and in the future, relying on the bonus of Li Xuan's rebirth halo, the development prospects are naturally very good, why should they share the benefits with other shareholders.

But the employees of Dongfang Games definitely don't think so. If the company is not listed, how can they exchange the options in their hands? Li Xuan has long considered this issue. Dongfang Electronics has just implemented the first round of equity incentive plan. Most of the employees who have obtained options are the first to join Dongfang Electronics Company to develop the arcade machines of "Hong Kong Cube" and "Tank Wars". A group of people.

Since Li Xuan is not going to let Dongfang Games go public, he will naturally have to compensate in other ways. For example, employees are allowed to exchange the options of Dongfang Game Company for stock options of Aikang Computer Company, which is about to start its listing plan.

"Miss Cao, treat yourself!"

As soon as Cao Jingya came back from outside, a girl who was friends with her and who usually had lunch together said to her with a smile. She found that other colleagues looked at her with a bit of envy, and felt a little inexplicable, so she asked: "Ayi, what's the happy event for me? How come I don't even know myself, you look at me strangely? !"

"Ms. Cao, you will soon become a rich woman!" The girl who was called Ayi by Cao Jingya said with a smile, "Brother Cheng, they were discussing how to catch you, so the goal of life can be reduced by at least ten years!"

Cao Jingya smiled and glanced at the men next to her, and the people who met her eyes were a little embarrassed~www.readwn.com~ Finally, the brother Cheng explained: "The news just came out above, Li Sheng is going to split Aikang Computer into an independent subsidiary and list it on the London Stock Exchange.

Miss Cao, the options of Dongfang Electronics in the hands of you old employees can choose to be converted into shares of Aikang Computer. When Aikang Computer goes public next year, some of your options will be ready to be discounted, and you will be able to cash in and make a profit! "

Cao Jingya holds 5,000 shares of Dongfang Electronics stock options, and the first batch of 1,500 shares can be cashed at the end of the year. I don't know what the company's specific articles of association are like? She smiled slightly and said, "Okay, let's work hard, don't spread all kinds of gossip like a **** all day long!"

"Yeah, just perfunctory about the invitation!" Ayi lowered her head and muttered.

"The eight characters haven't been written yet! When I get the real money, it's not too late to invite you all!" Cao Jingya glared at her and suddenly smiled, "Okay, I'll invite everyone to eat egg tarts for afternoon tea, so that you can save money. You say I'm stingy behind my back!"

Cao Jingya was promoted to Assistant Director of the Administration Department after her previous training at CUHK. After graduating from high school, she became a middle-level manager of a large electronics company when she turned 20.

And Cao Jingya's soldiers are all outstanding graduates of Hong Kong University and CUHK. Such a life experience will inevitably make others jealous. Fortunately, she can only be considered delicate, and she is still a few points away from being beautiful. Otherwise, someone should have choreographed the story behind the scenes that the boss and the female secretary had to tell.
