Reborn IT Giant

"Zheng Yan, do you know something inside? Tell me quickly. It's really uncomfortable for you to say half of it like this."

Since Zheng Yan met Li Yanhong, it was the first time that Li Yanhong showed his thirst for knowledge, or his desire for gossip, in front of Zheng Yan. Unfortunately, Zheng Yan found it interesting and naturally would not tell him easily.

"Don't you know there is a saying that secrets cannot be leaked? Wait a minute, you will understand it soon."

"Zheng Yan..."

"Okay, stop talking now, the market is open." While Zheng Yan and Li Yanhong were chatting, Netscape's stock was already listed.

…

"Enron, the market has opened, and Netscape's stock is also listed. Should we buy it directly or wait and see?"

"Buy it directly, and buy as much as you agreed upon. If our guess is good, Netscape's stock price should be the lowest at the beginning, and we will take advantage of this opportunity to buy more."

If Zheng Yan were here, he would have noticed that An Ran was very different from usual. She had more of a strong woman's temperament. Although her face was a little nervous, she gave orders very decisively.

…

"What, it's gone? Didn't Netscape's stock just come out? Why did it disappear so quickly?"

"Yeah, how could it be so fast..."

"What's going on? We just released 500,000 shares, why are they gone so quickly?"

"It seems that some people have been waiting for Netscape to go public for a long time, so they have prepared a lot of funds in advance. As much as we give out, the other party will take in. What will happen next? How much will we give out this time?"

"Since someone has bought in, we will release more shares, this time 1.5 million shares. If the other party still buys in, then we will sell another 2 million shares. I don't believe that the other party can still contract the stock.

It’s great.”

The addition of Enron and others caused chaos on the Nasdaq trading floor. Not only that, even the heads of Morgan Stanley and Humberquist, who were responsible for underwriting Netscape stocks, were a little confused.

"Zheng Yan, now I believe it. I'm afraid Netscape is going to create a miracle."

Seeing how popular Netscape stock was, Li Yanhong couldn't help but admire Zheng Yan's judgment.

No, it’s just that Li Yanhong didn’t know, and Zheng Yan was also wondering.

It is true that Netscape's stock is popular, but not to this extent. Even if Microsoft's IE browser has not been released due to his own fault, it should not be so popular. Zheng Yan felt that he seemed to have overlooked something.

But I never thought that the problem lay with his wives.

…

"Enron, Netscape has released another 1.5 million shares, and the price has reached 35 US dollars. Should we continue to buy in?"

Of the 500,000 shares just now, Anron and the others bought 300,000 shares at a price of 28 US dollars per share. However, in just a short time, the price increased by 7 US dollars. After hearing Aso Miyuki's words, Anron became hesitant.

stand up.

"Enron, I think we can buy some more, but not all of them. After all, stocks need to be circulated, which is also good for us. Let's buy another 750,000 shares and see how the market reacts.

"

It's not that Sally Krawcheck doesn't see the risks involved, but she feels that 300,000 shares are too few. Even if the stock price doubles, they won't make much money.

"Okay, just listen to Sally, let's buy another 750,000 shares, and then pause for a while."

…

"It seems that some people want to take advantage of the opportunity of Netscape's listing to make a fortune, but I hope these people don't be too greedy, otherwise they will not be able to escape." Zheng Yan said to himself.

Zheng Yan didn't pay much attention to the 500,000 shares that disappeared the first time, but this time Zheng Yan discovered a problem. Under normal circumstances, retail investors will not buy too many shares at a time. Those who buy tens of thousands of shares are already considered large investors. As for those who buy tens of thousands of shares, they are considered large investors.

It can only be said that it was premeditated.

"Zheng Yan, how are you? Seeing the Netscape stock sales are so hot, do you regret your decision?" Li Yanhong noticed that Zheng Yan's expression was a little strange, so he joked from the side.

"I have nothing to regret. Don't forget that I am still a shareholder of Netscape. The higher Netscape's stock price is, it is only good for me. I am just worried about those who buy stocks. If they sell

Morning, you can still make a fortune, but if you are too greedy, you may lose everything."

No one knows the fate of Netscape better than Zheng Yan.

Needless to say, even if the stock price doubled, it would not change Netscape's fate.

Seeing that Zheng Yan didn't care at all, Li Yanhong found it boring and focused on Netscape's stock price.

…

"Jim, judging from the current trend, the 10 million shares we have prepared may not be enough. Do you think we should issue some additional shares?"

If history has not changed, Netscape will only sell five million shares this time, which is 10% of Netscape's market value. Just because of Zheng Yan's joining, Jim Clark and Marc Andreessen can take back Zheng Yan's shares.

That's why it was increased to 10 million shares, but now it seems that these are still not enough.

"Let's take a look. It's just the beginning after all. Everyone is buying, and there is also a big player who is buying. When the big player stops, the sales will not be so fast."

Compared to Mark Andreessen's excitement, Jim Clark always felt a little uneasy, so he rejected Mark Andreessen's suggestion to issue additional shares.

After the Enron people stopped selling the stock, the stock sales slowed down significantly. However, because of the Enron people, everyone's enthusiasm was aroused, and new people continued to join, which did not affect the stock sales at all.

Because the Netscape browser still maintains its uniqueness, coupled with the participation of several people from Enron, these series of factors added together caused Netscape's stock price to reach about 85 US dollars, which was seven times higher than Zheng Yan's known price.

Fourteen dollars is exactly eleven dollars more.

Until the market closed in the afternoon, Netscape's stock price finally stabilized at US$63.27, which was five US dollars higher than the US$58 that Zheng Yan knew. As a result, Netscape's market value reached 2.9 billion.

That's 200 million more than in the previous life.

"Okay, we've seen what we should see, and we haven't missed the fun we should join in. Let's go back."

Since Zheng Yan has been watching the listing of Netscape as a prophet and a bystander, he is also the most relaxed one. Although there were some accidents, the overall result was good. Seeing the closing time, Zheng Yan

Also ready to leave.

Zheng Yan originally thought that his relationship with Netscape would end here, but unexpectedly, just when he was about to leave, Jim Clark and Marc Andreessen walked over again.
