Chapter 1730: Listed (Part 1)
The same thing, Guo Tailai said to Zhao Xiangbei, Chu Xiong, Chu Fei, Annie and James, MJ and Lao Li, anyway, his partners have said it and done it Recommended, and strongly recommended.
On the night when Guo Tailai left the old Finn's house, Guo Tailai said these words again among the members of the Treasure Ship Club. Anyway, I have already taken the big head, and holding Google shares is a good investment for a long time. I believe that these partners of mine should be very happy to hold them.
Of course, these people have a lot of energy, and they may grab stocks in the stock market before the IPO or after the listing. For Guo Tailai, it is better for his friends to hold stocks than those held by investment institutions. It is not a bad thing after all.
Rolls-Royce Engine Company attaches great importance to this cooperation. Once the Domestic Trade and Industry Committee approves, they can't wait for Guo Tailai's special plane to fly to London to sign the contract. The CEO who received Guo Tailai last time flew directly to Los Angeles with the contract. team confirms contract terms.
After determining a series of parameters such as the model and power that Guo Tailai needed, Luo Luo added some restrictions. It can only be used for civilian ships and cannot be used in the military field. Regular inspections, GPS installation, original factory maintenance, etc., after various terms such as price, breach of contract, and delivery date have been increased and improved, Guo Tailai finally has a contract worth 70 million U.S. dollars. signed his name on the purchase contract, and the deal was concluded.
The three latest Rolls-Royce MT30s will be delivered by the end of this year, just in time for the yacht's manufacturing progress.
So far, after some twists and turns, Guo Tailai finally succeeded in buying Rolls-Royce's latest marine gas turbine MT30. This is currently the most powerful marine gas turbine in the world, and it is also the most advanced.
The MT30 gas turbine is a high-power gas turbine modified for marine use by Rolls-Royce on the basis of the "Trent-800" aero-engine. Megawatt (54,000 horsepower), firmly sitting on the throne of the world's largest marine gas turbine, and the latest improved G4 model of the US LM2500 marine gas turbine, which ranked second a few years later, has a maximum power of only 34 megawatts!
In addition, the MT-30 gas turbine is also quite advanced in terms of miniaturization, and it is also the one with the highest power-to-weight ratio among all naval gas turbines. Excellent!
The weight of the MT30 gas turbine is only 22 tons, and its thermal efficiency reaches 40%, which is much higher than that of similar products in the world. It is especially suitable for the use of large warships, and will be used on the British Queen Elizabeth-class aircraft carrier in the future, as well as the American Zumwalt DDG-1000 guided missile destroyer, the LCS Freedom-class littoral combat ship, the Korean FFX-II Daegu-class frigate, the Japanese 30FFM frigate, Italian "Trieste" class amphibious assault ship.
Now, these future famous warships have not been used, even the test ship of the Liberty-class Littoral Combat Ship has not been used yet. Guo Tailai's super yacht has already confirmed the use of this most advanced gas turbine.
"With the MT30, I believe my super yacht will fly!" When shaking hands with the CEO of Rolls-Royce to celebrate the happy signing of the contract, Guo Tailai expressed his expectation to Mr. CEO without any concealment.
"I have no doubts about this!" Mr. CEO is also in a good mood. Facing the praise of the world's best manual machining master, he is also full of confidence: "Rolo's products are worthy of everyone's expectations."
Some people in the United States strongly opposed it, but when some people in the United States did not speak up, and under the very tough requirements of the British side, and under the multiple restrictions, the acquisition contract could be signed smoothly. There were also many twists and turns along the way.
Now many people in the United States are very upset, especially those from GE. Luo Luo is about to sign a contract for three LM2500+ units, but Luo Luo has made a mess. Find a place back. Luo Luo doesn't care about this either. GE and Luo Luo have fought countless times in business competition, and each company's small notebooks record countless times of the other party's "bad behavior".
However, being in the United States, neither Guo Tailai nor Luo Luo CEO has any plans to make a big splash, and neither of them wants to stimulate and provoke the fragile nerves of some Americans with massive propaganda. Even if it is publicity, it is the most suitable time to wait until the time of delivery, or when the super yacht is launched. As for now, everyone should celebrate secretly and have fun secretly!
Now that Luo Luo sent the contract to his door, Guo Tailai didn't have to make a hard trip to London. Although it is not too tiring to fly with a luxury private plane, it is definitely more comfortable to travel less. At this moment, Guo Tailai can live comfortably in a mansion in Hollywood, waiting for Google to go public.
Because of Guo Tailai's "random" investment, many things are different. For example, Google, which was supposed to go public last year, just pushed it to this year.
For example, Penguin Company, which should also be listed in Xiangjiang last year, is still developing steadily. Guo Tailai invested 5% of the dilutable shares in the follow-up development, and obtained enough development funds. According to Lin Jiayi's understanding, the listing is also next year. something happened.
Another example is Ali Baba, because of Guo Tailai’s random investment, rich money, and subsequent development, he invested 10% of the dilutable shares. Under Guo Tailai’s indirect reminder, even the means of payment did not have any interest in foreign shareholders. , Ababa develops normally. Last year, he directly registered another company called Alipay, which is a shareholder of all Chinese people. Guo Tailai invested in it according to the old rules, 5% non-dilutive shares plus 5% dilutable shares. This time, he directly invested 40 million US dollars, which is enough Alipay has developed normally and orderly, and there is no need to worry about the payment method being interfered by foreign capital.
Google is expected to go public in early March this year, which is about ten days away from now. This is the first company that Guo Tailai invested in to go public after his investment, so Guo Tailai also plans to stay in the United States to see the grand occasion of Google's listing.
Because of Guo Tailai, Google's listing is also different. Previously, Google planned to issue 25.7 million shares with a guide price of US$130-150. According to the analysis, reducing IPO issuance will help support the trading price of stocks. However, at a previous shareholder meeting, Google lowered its initial public offering to 19.6 million shares, releasing about 7% of its shares to be listed, and the issue guide price was significantly lowered to US$110-120. At this minimum price, the IPO would raise $2.156 billion and the company would have a market capitalization of $31 billion, $11 billion less than the highest expected market cap.
But Guo Tailai is full of confidence in the public stock price. He is very curious about what price Google can reach after listing, and how much his paper wealth can increase?
