On February 26, 2006, Walker had arrived from the European branch to the parent company three days ago. Today, Luo Sheng, the founder of Bluestar Technology Group, brings more than half of the company's core management team and initial team. Arrived in New York by special plane.

"This is CNN, welcome back, Blue Star Technology Group (BTC) is fighting for the IPO ..."

"The latest news from Bloomberg News, Bluestar Technology Group has started to attack the IPO ..."

"If we look at the valuation of Bluestar Technology Group, this will be the largest IPO in history ..."

Luo Sheng led his team just arrived in the North American continent, and has not yet stepped out of the airport terminal. Major mainstream media news here has begun to report, and a large electronic billboard on Times Square in New York has appeared today. And members of the core management team of Bluestar Technology.

Can be called the young enterprise group.

It's all in the spotlight.

下 In late February of this year, Luo Sheng and Blue Star Technology Group have continued to dominate the world ’s headlines. Compared with last year ’s Baidu IPO activity, everyone saw what it was called the front line.

Industry insiders and domestic netizens are also strong onlookers. Luo Sheng is definitely the ultimate idol of the post-1980s generation. Industry practitioners and countless entrepreneurs are also envious of it.

For Luo Sheng, now is undoubtedly the moment of his highlight at the mall, this is the moment that countless entrepreneurs dream of.

Uh ...

Bluestar Technology Group's New York office.

At this moment, Luo Sheng and his core executive team are gathered in a small room. Some people are standing and some are sitting, but everyone is very excited. Even if they travel long distances, they do n’t see much now. tired.

Luo Sheng was sitting in one of the rooms, he was quite calm, and smiled calmly: "The 12-day global roadshow started on Monday 27th. This is definitely a very difficult and tortured journey. From the first stop in New York Start, and end to London. OK, we have less than six hours of rest time before the first road show. Everyone has a good rest, so don't doze off in front of the camera. "

Chad Hurley said: "BOSS, everyone is nervous at this time, but more than that, at least my cerebral cortex is too excited to fall asleep."

There was a rush of laughter in the room, and Luo Sheng chatted with the core team members for a while, immediately forcing everyone to rest.

Wu Qin Weimu, Irene, Xu Yong, Yu Jun, Li Mingyuan, Feng Yi, Bai Lang, Lu Siming, Su Yali and other team members all went to the hotel where they had arranged to rest.

Time hastily passed and it was another hour, and there were only more than five hours left before the first roadshow.

In fact, just when everyone got together, it was already over two in the morning on February 27.

Uh ...

At dawn, Luo Sheng was woken up by an alarm. Although he wanted to sleep a little longer, he had no time to give him a lazy bed.

只有 It's only been more than an hour since the first roadshow. Luo Sheng quickly finished washing. He still didn't wear formal clothes, and still the iconic IT big guy style. T-shirt + jeans + sneakers have become his mark.

The season is very cold right now, so I added a coat, but even if the outside temperature is cold, the enthusiasm in people's hearts is enough to expel all the cold.

The special car is already ready. When Luo Sheng leaves the hotel, he leads the company's core team to the first roadshow.

About half an hour's drive to reach the destination, Luo Sheng went to the indoor hall of the roadshow and asked a partner of an investment bank next to him: "How many people will come?"

"About nine hundred people, maybe more than a thousand people."

After a few minutes, everyone entered the venue, and there were only twenty minutes left before the roadshow officially began.

Qin Weimu said to everyone: "I will quickly and briefly say that the management will arrange the position in the first row, there will be the Blue Star Technology Group logo, Brady will come to the stage to give a brief introduction to the roadshow activities, after that he Mr. Luo will be introduced. "

Wu Qin Weimu continued to add: "At that time, you can applaud and keep smiling, looking at the camera in front of you."

Everyone nodded one after another, everyone was the first time, no experience. Fortunately, there are professionals such as Qin Weimu among the team members. Although she has not hosted an IPO or something, she is actually aware of the entire process.

A few minutes passed, and a lot of investors started to walk into the roadshow venue.

Luo Luosheng met Paul Watson, an old acquaintance of Goldman Sachs Capital. He represented Goldman Sachs at the last shareholder meeting.

"Mr. Luo, I have been waiting too long for this day, congratulations in advance on the success of the first roadshow." Paul Watson said with a smile, he shook politely in front of Luo Sheng.

"Yes, waiting too long, Bluestar Technology will not let investors' money float." Luo Sheng said with a smile.

应当 "It should be, haha, then I will sit aside first."

"please."

Unfamiliar investors appeared one after another. The final confirmation result was that there were 1,059 people, more than 90% of them were European and American investors, large and small investors.

Finally, the first road show in New York officially started.

On the podium on the side, a bald middle-aged man in a suit and leather formalwear and glasses said, "Good morning, I am Brady, head of Morgan Stanley's Global Capital Markets Division. I am very honored to start Bluestar Technology Group. The first roadshow of the IPO. Citibank, Credit Suisse Bank, Deutsche Bank, Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase, Morgan Stanley and other brokerage investment banks attended the meeting. There is no doubt that Bluestar Technology Group has been the most experienced in our career. Exciting company ... "

Brady briefly introduced the event, and finally spoke solemnly again: "The following is Mr. Luo Sheng, the founder and chairman and CEO of Bluestar Technology Group."

As the words fell, the audience gave warm applause.

Luo Sheng, who was sitting in the first row under the logo of Bluestar Technology Group, stood up with a smile, and then turned back to pay attention to more than 1,000 investors in the audience, and then he walked to the stage.

At the same time, Brady saw Luo Sheng coming, and the two sides shook hands politely and handed over the podium.

The whole audience focused on Luo Sheng alone, and the applause ended, but there were still some small exchanges of discussion and discussion, and many investors were listening.

They are still shocked by Luo Sheng's youth.

An investor sitting next to Paul Watson suddenly whispered to him: "Mr. Paul, once Bluestar Technology Group successfully IPO, Mr. Luo Sheng will become the youngest CEO of [Fortune 1000] companies, I I think most investors will be like me. The focus will be on whether Mr. Luo Sheng is mature? Can he really take charge of a big IT giant? "

Not everyone knows Luo Sheng and Bluestar Technology Group very well, especially the large, medium and small investors who want to participate in the subscription.

"I'm afraid it's a topic that he and the Bluestar Technology Group have been talking about. Generally, the advantages of young leaders are considered to be creative and understand the latest technology. With these qualities, the head of the BlueStar Technology Group There is no doubt about it, "Paul Watson said calmly." It seems that young people are generally lacking in meticulous decision-making and experience in dealing with difficult situations. "

That investor agreed.

But Paul Watson suddenly turned his head: "Is this really the case? Not so, there are always exceptions."

The investor said curiously, "Oh?"

Paul Watson lamented that he already knew some of the content, but he signed a confidentiality agreement, so he could not reveal it to the outside. If the questionable investor knew the three major issues of the original shareholders ’meeting, he would not Think so.

The investor immediately said: "Silicon Valley favors young people, which helps explain the recent poor reporting in the venture capital industry. We have annual sales of more than 500 US $ 1 million ~ www.novelhall.com ~ and employees A technology and engineering company with more than 5 people conducted research and concluded that the average age of founders of successful companies is 39, and the number of companies with founders over 50 is the number of companies with founders under 25 Two times, the data shows that experience is more important than young, and age provides a clear advantage. As for Bluestar Technology and Mr. Luo Sheng ... "

He did not go on, because founders under 20 years old have almost no data reference.

Paul Watson actually wanted to agree with him. The facts that can be experienced and the current level of performance of Bluestar Technology forced him to change this idea. At least, Luo Sheng couldn't treat it with common sense. He laughed:

"There is always a survivor bias, and Mr. Luo Sheng has proven that at least with him, age is not important. What is important is technology, enthusiasm, strong curiosity, and ... ultra-high IQ levels."

Speaking of this, Paul Watson also ended his whispering private conversation with the other party, and turned to look at the young man standing on the podium that made Wall Street boil.

Because Luo Sheng has taken the stage from Brady.

Uh ...
