Rebirth of England

Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley recommend that Woaw set the issuance price of its shares at $2.75-3. If calculated at a maximum of $3 per share, Woaw Technology's market value will reach $12 billion.

According to this market value, even Goldman Sachs, the last to participate in the financing, has more than doubled the income from its holdings of Woaw shares.

It’s no wonder that they were willing to sell part of their shares in this IPO to recoup funds... It has to be said that Goldman Sachs was very cautious. They sold about one-third of their shares and prepared to get back the invested funds first.

Woaw Technology will be listed on Nasdaq in early March. The reason why they chose Nasdaq instead of the London Stock Exchange is not only that more than half of their users currently come from the North American market, but also because they are listed on Nasdaq. For Internet technology companies, valuations will be higher.

As Christmas approaches, the festive atmosphere on the streets becomes more intense, and many businesses have added Christmas-themed decorations.

Including the pages of Argos.com, they have also been changed to Christmas backgrounds, and the annual promotion has started, using this time to increase sales.

This year, Amazon launched the Prime membership service in North America - members only need to pay a fixed membership fee of US$79 per year to enjoy unlimited two-day delivery service for free, and there is no minimum consumption limit.

In response to this service, before Christmas this year, Argos Retail Group also announced an upgrade to their membership system.

Prior to this, members of Argos.com could obtain corresponding points for daily online shopping. With these points, they could offset some expenses including packaging fees and delivery fees.

Now for the Prime membership service launched by Amazon in North America, Argos.com has also launched VIP membership in the membership system...

Members of Argos.com can become VIP members by paying 59 euros per year. During this period, they will enjoy the same unlimited two-day delivery service in the countries and regions opened by Argos.com.

It should be noted that unlike domestic e-commerce companies in China, neither Amazon nor Argos.com has a default concept of free shipping.

This service only guarantees delivery within two days, but users still need to pay extra for postage...

Before the holiday, Barron took the time to accompany Julia Moore for another physical examination at the Royal Brompton Hospital - one of the best heart disease hospitals in the UK.

Barron was very satisfied with the results of the examination, which showed that Yulia was in good physical condition and that the diseases inherited in her family had not manifested themselves.

"Baby, we can have a baby in other ways..."

After accompanying her back home, Barron held Yulia's hand and said softly:

"I know you like children very much."

Indeed, when Rebecca and her daughter Jennifer were still living in London, Yulia often went to visit them.

It can be seen that Yulia likes Jennifer very much and even became her godmother.

Yulia herself was a person who devoted most of her time to work, but at that time, most of her time outside of work was spent with Jennifer.

At that time Rebecca was still continuing her interrupted studies at Cambridge University.

It can be said that Yulia's time with Jennifer is no shorter than that of Rebecca.

In addition to Rebecca, Julia also has a good relationship with Countess Chris and Mrs. Hall Catherine.

In other words, except for Barron’s female assistant, because she manages the family trust, Yulia is the woman who knows the best about Barron’s “private life”—Barron’s women and his children, many of the expenses are Provided through family trust channels.

She took on the responsibility of running the "harem" for Barron at some point.

After hearing Barron's words, Yulia looked a little moved, but then she turned to talk:

"Forget it, actually this is not bad, don't worry about me, I have already figured it out."

She naturally knew how Countess Chris and Count Bute's two children were obtained.

Indeed, in this way, she could avoid her own physical condition that would have been life-threatening during the pregnancy.

But Yulia's own physical condition is only one of the reasons why she doesn't want children. In addition, she doesn't want her hereditary condition to be passed down to her children.

For Barron, a position like Yulia's "harem manager" is naturally the best for Barron if she doesn't want children, because people will always have selfish motives, and if she doesn't have children, she We can also treat everyone equally.

But after all, Yulia is his woman, and Barron will also think about her. Now that Yulia is still so insistent, he will not continue to talk about this topic.

"What's this?"

Seeing Barron handing her the box he just brought in from the car, Yulia couldn't help but ask.

"An early Christmas gift for you."

"I'm not a child..."

Even though she said this, Yulia's smile showed that she was still very happy.

"What a beautiful necklace."

Although Yulia can be called a workaholic on weekdays, she is still a woman after all. After opening the exquisite gift box, she saw a simple and elegant looking jewelry box inside.

Even this jewelry box can be called a work of art.

The necklace in the jewelry box does not look complicated in shape. It is a platinum necklace inlaid with dozens of crystal clear diamonds.

But among these diamonds, the most eye-catching one is the red diamond in the middle.

The red diamond is not big, only 0.95 carats, but this diamond has a name, it is called the Hancock Red Diamond, and it is also called a "natural wonder"...

This red diamond was originally part of the collection of Mr. Hancock, a farmer in Montana. It is said that he purchased this diamond in 1956 for $13,500.

Later, the Hankow red diamond appeared at Christie's auction in April 1987, with an estimate of US$100,000-150,000. The final selling price was US$880,000, or US$926,000 per carat, breaking all diamond transaction records at the time.

You know, that was $880,000 in the 1980s!

The reason why the Hancock Red Diamond, with a weight of 0.95 carats, can become one of the top diamonds is because of its unique color - Fancy Purple-Red.

You know, only one out of 100,000 diamonds can be rated as "Fancy", and red diamonds are even rarer. If you can handle more than three red diamonds in your life, even an experienced diamond dealer will think that you are very special. Lucky for you.

Barron previously purchased the Hancock red diamond for $4.5 million through a dealer and commissioned a well-known jeweler to make it into this necklace.

For people like Barron and others, the value of the gift is important, but what is more important is the thought spent on the gift.

After all, money is just a number to him.

No matter how expensive the gift was, if he wanted to give it, all that was needed was to sign the bill.

But in order to give a gift, spending time and thought on it can explain the other person's position in his mind.

Therefore, after learning the ins and outs of making this necklace, Yulia looked at Barron with affection.

It seems that the atmosphere has been set up here, and it is self-evident what will happen next.
