Chapter 383 Parallel Lines Listed(1/2)
The reporters clicked the shutter excitedly. In the midst of the shooting, Xiao Pei was in a state of disarray in the blink of an eye. His head and body were covered with the juice of tomatoes and rotten eggs. How many pieces of broccoli were still hanging on his head?
Finally, when the police whistle was heard, several police officers walked in with smiles on their faces and pulled away several protesters who were shouting slogans. The reporters became even more excited. They first filmed the people getting on the police car and then facing Xiao Pei.
Let’s take a close-up...
Elna beside her was already stunned: "Boss! This gentleman has never offended anyone, right?"
Li Yuan was also a little confused. Suddenly, he became enlightened.
If a person like Xiao Pei is thrown into the center of New York, two dogs will not pay attention to him? How can he offend people? And he will waste so many tomatoes and rotten eggs?
And looking at the actions of these media reporters, it was obvious that they were well prepared. Maybe they had contacted the protesters?
That means...you got the wrong person, right?
That's right! In the eyes of Westerners, Easterners all look the same. And Xiao Pei's figure and age are about the same as mine. They must have mistaken him... right?
Forget it, that's greetings from New York. Bad luck for Xiao Pei!
Holding back his laughter, Li Yuan ordered: "Xiao Ding, please protect Miss Elna later. We will rush in directly!"
"Oh! Mr. Li, what about you?"
"Don't you see? All the people fighting the epidemic have dispersed. They no longer have rotten eggs or rotten tomatoes. Hahaha!"
Amid laughter, Li Yuan got out of the car with great air. While all the reporters were dumbfounded, he waved with a smile and entered the Nasdaq exchange.
Lie down!
The reporters all widened their eyes and watched Li Yuanyuan go: "Hey! Is it Li? Can you say a few words?"
"Wait for us. We have questions to ask you!"
"Fake Squid! Who is this bad guy here?"
"hehe."
"..."
…
Seeing the commotion outside the door, the exchange also felt as if it was facing a formidable enemy. The security guard at the door escorted Li Yuan in.
Lunn seemed a little confused: "Li, what is happening outside? Why are there so many reporters?"
Li Yuan himself didn't even know what it meant to be conscientious. He also didn't know that in just one night, unscrupulous tabloids compiled so many short articles.
"Who knows? Maybe you guys on Wall Street are up to no good?"
"Hahaha!" Lunn laughed. What about doing bad things? Isn't that the greatest compliment to Wall Street?
"Sorry to bother you," a staff member reminded, "it's almost time to ring the bell, you can follow me to the lounge."
"Then let's go! Oh, do you have a bathroom here? The person in the back will help clean it up and prepare a set of clothes. It will be recorded in my account. I'm sorry to bother you."
The staff understood: "Mr. Li, I sincerely wish you a successful listing."
"Haha. I like you. Elna, give him an invitation to the dinner."
"Yes, boss!"
The staff member left with a smile on his face. He didn't care about a mere tip, and the invitation was a ticket to the top of Wall Street.
In fact, Li Yuan was not very interested in this bell-ringing ceremony.
The bell-ringing ceremony on Wall Street is symbolic. It’s such a small bell and it can’t be used at all. How is it like the big gong of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange? That’s the favorite of naughty kids!
But having said that, Yu Shengkang was still very excited.
Since Li Yuan did not bring anyone with him this time, apart from Elna accompanying him, the other spot was given to Yu Shengkang.
This made Yu Shengkang tremble with excitement. Li Yuan didn't care, but he cared a lot? Being able to ring the bell in New York? This experience was so awesome that he could brag about it for three years after returning to China.
Therefore, no one even cares about Xiao Pei's whereabouts. Let the broccoli man doubt his life!
Amid the joy, Li Yuan and the three of them chatted in the lounge for a while. Until someone came to inform them that the time was almost up...
…
"Yuanzi, will there be no problem later?" Yu Shengkang still looked nervous all over, and even his bald head became shiny.
"Don't worry! Brother Kang, it's actually just a ceremony. The specific transactions are all on the exchange."
"I'm not talking about this. I'm talking about stocks. Don't let it fall badly, right?"
"Haha. If you fall badly, Miss Erna will cry, right?"
"Boss, why are you calling me? Can you stop speaking Chinese?"
"We are discussing that you are the goddess of luck in our parallel line. If the stock market performs well today, I should give you a big red envelope."
"Really? I'm so happy. Thank you boss! Thank you Yu! Well... will Yu give me a red envelope?"
"Haha. Yu is a government employee in China, and his income is very low. If he gives you a red envelope, he will immediately go bankrupt. Then he can only sleep on the sofa."
"Ah? Why do you want to sleep on the sofa?"
"Because he has a wife?"
"Kekeke..."
The henpecked joke, which should have no cultural barriers, made Elna burst into laughter.
Yu Shengkang looked at Li Yuan and Elna in confusion, understanding that they must be saying bad things. And they were still speaking in incomprehensible English? Damn it!
Amid applause, Li Yuan and others finally appeared on the small platform where the bell was ringing.
The traders below were also very supportive. When the opening time came, Li Yuan rang the bell, and the audience immediately burst into warm applause again...
Bell-ringing ceremonies like this are often held by the exchange and have almost become a routine.
Therefore, after the courtesy congratulations, the traders immediately got into busy trading, and Li Yuan also shook hands with the accompanying exchange executives one by one.
"Yuanzi, is this the end?"
"Haha. What are you planning to do? Are you going to set off firecrackers and perform lion and dragon dances?" Li Yuan thanked him while joking with Yu Shengkang.
Yu Shengkang couldn't help but feel happy. But before he could continue to ask, he heard a roar in the trading room: "Fake Squid! Look! Look at the parallel lines!"
The group of people immediately looked at the electronic display and saw the stock price of Parallel Line - $28.23!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Damn it! Crazy, everyone is so crazy. The stock price has soared by about 350% just after the bidding call?
With a smile on his face, Lunn took the initiative to shake hands and congratulate: "Congratulations, Li! You should have exceeded 3 billion US dollars now, right?"
Li Yuanpi looked at Lunn's performance with a smile on his face. What do you mean? You taste it yourself? Is your suggested price really 8 US dollars? Do you know? How much money has been lost by labor and capital?
"Haha." Lunn laughed a few times. But he said it, which is the inherent talent of Wall Street people. "Li, happy cooperation. We at Morgan Stanley are waiting for your next miracle. We will definitely give you the best one."
Best price!”
"hehe."
Anyway, there is no point in talking anymore. Li Yuan regarded these words as farts.
But could the stock price jump so much all of a sudden? Li Yuan was still very happy in his heart.
"Look! It's already over 30 US dollars!" Erna jumped up excitedly, hugged Li Yuan and kissed her. Then she hugged Yu Shengkang... uh, turned around in a circle, forget it.
Yu Shengkang just opened his arms, but he didn't expect to be excited in vain. However, he was also very happy and laughed off the embarrassment: "Yuanzi, does that mean the situation is good? Doesn't it mean that the Internet has a future?"
Li Yuan raised his hand to indicate that this was not a place for talking. It was better to go back to the hotel to hear the news. There was a celebration dinner in the evening.
However, Ding Ye became nervous: "Mr. Li, you...you are richer, right? Can I alone be enough?"
After being reminded like this, Li Yuan was not sure. Now his worth is enough to induce others to commit crimes... right?
"Lun? Where can I find bodyguards? A reputable security company?"
"No problem. I'll contact you right away."
For a large investment bank like Morgan Stanley, there are connections in the relevant service industries, so finding a few bodyguards is no problem at all.
After a while, more than a dozen burly bodyguards arrived, and they escorted Li Yuan out of the exchange in a well-trained manner.
However, when they went outside, everyone was startled. There were several times more reporters outside. They should have gotten the latest news on Parallel Line's stock price.
Seeing Li Yuan appear, the reporters immediately became excited: "Li! You should be the person with the fastest growing wealth in history, right?"
"Li, are you the richest person in China? Do you have anything to say to Parallel investors?"
"Li, how high do you think the stock price will go today?"
"Lee, will Parallel surpass Netscape and Yahoo and become the Internet stock with the highest total market value?"
"Li, female star XXX is looking forward to your dinner. Will you spend the night with her again?"
"..."
To be honest, although this temporary security company has well-trained bodyguards, they are still a little helpless in the face of such crazy reporters.
The number of bodyguards is still too small, and they cannot break through the encirclement of reporters. And without Li Yuan's order, who would dare to poke a hornet's nest like the media? The reporters are equally confident, and they must grab Li Yuan's news.
Of course, Li Yuan couldn't offend these reporters. He couldn't fight his way out, right?
To be continued...
