For the next week or so, Luo Sheng was in frequent contact with major investment banks. As a 20-year-old, she continued to mediate with a group of savvy Wall Street bankers.

Anyway, Luo Sheng is not in a hurry. It is only in May now, and it doesn't matter that his company waits for another year to go public.

Even if it is not listed at all, it is okay, but Wall Street definitely does not agree. Hundreds of millions of dollars have been invested in one round after another. In any case, it is taking huge risks. As a result, it ca n’t accept the unequal returns.

And this is Luo Sheng's reliance on nothing, now the major investment banks are anxious.

As time goes by, Luo Sheng also keeps meeting with this group of Wall Street bankers, and he only sees one at a time. If he wants to meet together, he finds a reason to say that he has no time and is working on the "Blue Coast Laboratory "Random technology research and development.

Luo Sheng is not afraid of collusion among major investment banks, because collusion means dilute interests without suspense, and people are greedy, especially Wall Street.

The result is that major investment companies have been able to win the qualification of contracting the Blue Star Technology Group to go public, and have reduced the commission ratio from 7.2% in the beginning to 2.15% in the end.

Finally settled here.

This ratio is obviously much lower than what was paid before. The outside world wants to know what Luo Sheng and Wall Street are talking about. It took more than half a month to talk about it, but neither side disclosed any details.

On the day of May 17, a little news finally came out.

Citigroup's Solomon Smith Barney Securities Company withdrew from the ranks of underwriters, and leaked out the reasons, and stopped playing anyway.

The outside world knows that it turned out that Bluestar's commission was so low that Meibang Securities had no money to make, at least Meibang Securities responded to the outside world.

People in the industry are all looking at each other, and they are all sighing that Bluestar Technology Group is really unusual. Luo Sheng's achievements in the technology industry need not be repeated, and I did not expect to be able to achieve such a shrewdness in the business field.

However, Citi did not disclose too much information because it signed a confidentiality agreement. Although it renounced its qualifications as an underwriter, Citi will never give up its internal subscription rights.

The Goldman Sachs Group is indifferent, and there is a strong feeling that you have abused me thousands of times, and I still treat you like my first love.

Even if the ratio is reduced to less than 2%, it is an inevitable result. How does Goldman Sachs definitely belong to Blue Star Technology Group's "iron powder"?

nonsense.

Goldman Sachs is not the first to enter into Bluestar Technology, but it has spent the most money. In this case, it is not that much money. If you lose, it is blood loss.

But if you earn it, you will earn it by blood, and earning a little more is not a little or two, so there is nothing to hesitate.

Goldman Sachs, which is so badly savvy and savvy, will never trade at a loss. During the subprime mortgage crisis, it would be short to be its own master.

...

Time goes by every day.

It just entered mid-to-late May. On the day of May 17, Luo Sheng and Wall Street experienced mediation for more than a month, and finally made a breakthrough.

Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan and Merrill Lynch have become joint sponsors of the Blue Star Technology Group's listing. This may be the strongest sponsor lineup so far. This is probably the top three investment banks in the world today without objection.

The news has not been announced. It will not be announced until one month before the listing, and there may be variables even one day before the listing. Right now, it is only circulating in a very small top-tier investment banking circle.

...

Suzuma, came to July 8, 2005.

Irene entered Luo Sheng's office, shoved the data report on his desk, and stared at the other person with resentful eyes: "The second quarter audit report finally came out. You guys really do n’t know how to be kind, Why should you be so anxious? "

Luo Sheng looked at her, and suddenly looked at her with a smile and smiled, "Tough work, or would you ask you to eat goose and make up for it first? After work, I love you all night and start at least five times. "

Well, today, Friday, two days off tomorrow, Luo Sheng naturally has the energy to give all his energy.

"Go, think beautiful, you are tired enough to drive out this audit report, do you really want to exhaust me?" Irene flung her eyes in disgust, stopped paying attention to him, and turned her body to Resting next to the sofa, he said, "Look at what else you have to order. I'll do other work without me."

Irene is also currently holding several positions, including CFO, director, director of the president's office, assistant to the president, director of the global accounting department, and president of the accounting management department of Bluestar Technology Group.

It is difficult to imagine that she could grow to such a degree in just three years after catching the ducks on the shelves. There is an important factor that is not noticed by outsiders but cannot be ignored.

That is Qin Weimu.

Eileen's sister is also struggling in her heart. She always feels that Qin Weimu is a big threat to her. She looks beautiful and is not weaker than herself. The key is her talent. Her excellent ability, Eileen, has to admit that there are She was still a little lacking in her talents when compared to Qin Weimu.

But she didn't think she was much worse than her.

Not just a few years since debut.

As for the value of the face, Irene is very confident at this point, because four and a half years younger than Qin Weimu, young is capital, and the other party has not been able to recover from the value.

So Eileen, who wants to compare Qin Weimu in all aspects, now concentrates on her career and makes up for this short board to win her.

In ancient times, King Chu had a thin waist, and he was starved to death in the palace.

It can be seen that once a woman makes up her mind, it is horrible to be fierce.

Luo Sheng picked up the audited financial report sent by Irene. This report is indeed very fast in time. It is only in early July. Many listed companies will not disclose their annual report or semi-annual report until August. This is the second quarter report.

But this is a special request of Luo Sheng, and it is needed to negotiate with Wall Street.

Bluestar Technology is now in the stage of spin-off and reorganization, and the business of the group company is global. It took a little more than a week to get it, it is really not easy.

Irene's ability to complete the task on schedule is indeed worthy of recognition. Luo Sheng feels that the best form of recognition is to love her N times after the day after work.

A moment later, Luo Sheng put away his thoughts and took a look at the main data of this audited financial report.

Bluestar Technology Group's total revenue in the second quarter was US $ 576 million, equivalent to the Chinese currency's currency of 100 million yuan, an increase of 32.6% month-on-month, far exceeding Wall Street's expectations of 13.8%.

Operating profit was negative in the second quarter, with a loss of $ 564 million.

Because the second-quarter audited financial report included the group company's acquisition of three game development expenditures, if not included, the company's operating profit could reach 98.57 million US dollars.

The operating profit increased by 3.17 million US dollars in the previous quarter from the previous quarter, an astonishing 3109% increase, directly from the million level to the threshold of nearly 100 million.

It really took off.

Among them, of the US $ 576 million in revenue, revenue from advertising business accounted for US $ 514 million, accounting for% of the revenue, and the rest was revenue from digital music and virtual gifts.

And this revenue data, of which the total overseas revenue was 450 million US dollars, which accounted for% of the total revenue, the percentage of the previous quarter was%, a slight increase.

The proportion of revenue and regional revenue did not change much from the previous quarter. Advertising revenue and overseas revenue still accounted for the absolute proportion of Bluestar Technology Group.

The revenue data of "BlueSpace" this time still contributed 93%, an increase of more than one percentage point from the previous quarter.

For the other business segments of the company, Luo Sheng did not know that he must be in a loss state, but it was a huge loss. The following is true.

This dazzling revenue data is all supported by the "BlueSpace" business segment.

Costs and expenses for the quarter amounted to US $ 1.14 billion ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Free cash flow was US $ 536 million. If you don't count the expenses of acquiring three game companies for 663 million, Bluestar Technology Group will be free after the second quarter revenue. Cash flow will reach $ 100 million, an increase of more than $ 40 million.

At present, the total number of employees of the group company has reached 6,533. During the second quarter, the company expanded 673 people worldwide. More than 85% of the newly hired employees are engineers, and the company is still recruiting on a large scale.

After Luo Sheng simply read the audited financial report, he closed the documents. He was very satisfied with the company's second-quarter performance. Then he turned to look at the lazy Irene sitting on the sofa: "Xiao Ai, take this audit The statement was released to the public, and the major shareholders of Bluestar Technology Group were notified, and an extraordinary shareholder meeting will be held in 15 days. "

The rush to release the second quarter earnings report is to be able to speak louder and stronger to all external investors in the next interim shareholder meeting.

Speaking loudly and vigorously also needs solid support.
