Chapter 39 The First Stock

It was sunset, and the streets at dusk had a unique charm. It was already after work time, and there were obviously more pedestrians on the streets. An artist was painting on the wall.

  "I really want to immigrate here!"

  Licking the ice cream in her hand, Gao Jingxuan stretched, her slender figure clearly revealed. Joseph Xu realized that he shouldn't look too much at the towering chest and couldn't help turning his head to look out the window. , this action made Gao Jingxuan couldn't help laughing.

  "I think you should meet the standards of the Immigration Bureau. If you are not satisfied with the life in Taiwan, you can immigrate to Nord at any time. On behalf of the Principality of Nord, I welcome your arrival." "There will be a day. I believe that sooner or later Nord will become a global leader.

  " The most popular place in the world to immigrate to."

  Joseph didn't respond to Gao Jingxuan's words and just smiled softly, because silence was the best answer to this sentence. After going out for a while, the guard on the side came up to remind Joseph to stand up and look at the sunset.

  "It's getting late. I'll arrange for someone to take you back!"

  "Isn't it possible that the Grand Duke of Nord is not going to invite us to dinner?"

  "Are you sure?"

  Joseph's casual question reminded Gao Jingxuan of a series of things that might happen in the palace. According to the rules, he couldn't help but shook his head and asked a question that he shouldn't ask: "Will we meet again?" "

  Of course, we are friends."

  "Thank you!"

  The thank you came for no reason, and Joseph seemed to understand what she meant. , smiled and turned around to leave. A large number of guards followed him, and the figure gradually disappeared into the street...

  "Jingxuan, he is the Grand Duke of Nord."

  "He is even a nine-year-old child."

  What did her companion's warning mean? Gao Jingxuan was very confused. It was clear, and her answer was the best explanation. The companion was stunned for a moment before he remembered it. yes! The age gap is a bit big, it seems like I misunderstood.

  ...

  In mid-April 1981, the first stock on the NORD Exchange appeared on the trading board. It was not a company of the NORD Royal Group but the first slaughterhouse in Beicheng District.

  The slaughterhouse has a history of nine months. When Beicheng District was first established, its profits were the highest in Nord. The three shareholders of the slaughterhouse were also the earliest rich men in the Principality of Nord. Even though the number of workshops and factories in the Principality of Nord is now larger than before Ten times more, but the profits of the slaughterhouse have always been in the middle of the Nord.

  Due to the increase in the number of Chinese workers and citizens, the daily consumption of meat in the Principality of Nord was more than ten times or even hundreds of times that of the original. Although a second and third slaughterhouse appeared, its status has always been stable.

  Naturally, what is shown on the exchange panel cannot be a slaughterhouse. Meat Company is its new name because its board of directors has approved the development of new projects before going public. Deli meats and sausages are their new products.

  This time the meat company took out 35% of the shares, divided into one million shares, and its initial stock price was $5. Because it was the first listed company, Joseph was also paying close attention to the meat company.

  "Your Highness, the meat company has sold 600,000 shares. The exchange reported that citizens are very enthusiastic about buying, and the stock price is showing signs of improvement." "Your highness,

  all one million shares of the meat company have been sold, and the stock price at this time is $5.2 ."

  "Your Highness, the stock price of the meat company has increased and is now $5.4."

  ...

  As of the suspension of trading that night, the stock price of the meat company has reached $10.5. Joseph is very satisfied with this result, the shareholders are very satisfied, and the shareholders of the meat company are very excited, because a By the afternoon, their worth had doubled, and it was only a matter of time before they became millionaires.

  The enthusiasm of Nord citizens has inspired various companies to start stepping up their plans to go public. However, there are also some inferior companies. Their listing will inevitably dampen Nord citizens' enthusiasm for the stock market. These are inevitable, even if the exchange has tried its best. Increase the rigor of the review team.

  The situation in the stock market prompted the cabinet, especially the Ministry of Commerce, to submit an application for Joseph to agree to let the Audi A1 be listed, because only in this way will a large amount of foreign investment be attracted. These funds will bring great help to the economy of the Principality of Nord, especially Benefiting from one of Joseph's plans.

  The sales of Audi A1 have exceeded one million units in April, and the sales volume is doubling every month. For this reason, Audi is preparing to add a second workshop and a third workshop, hoping to completely exceed 300 units by the end of this year. Annual output of 10,000 vehicles.

  In less than half a year, Audi's total transaction volume was US$13.1 billion, of which profits were US$3.8 billion. Audi has become the third largest automobile company in Europe and the top ten in the world. Joseph believes that if this profit sheet is published, it will not be a problem for Audi's listed assets to increase tenfold.

  Joseph hesitated for three days before finally agreeing to the applications from the Cabinet and the Ministry of Commerce, but he hoped to wait. After all, the situation at the Nord Exchange was not very clear yet.

  In fact, for Audi, it is in the best interest to go public in the United States. After all, that is the center of Western finance, and listing there can better obtain financing. It is a pity that Audi is not an individual. It also has an important responsibility to increase the popularity of Nord Exchange.

  The listing of Audi is undoubtedly a big event. The entire cabinet and the Ministry of Commerce are making intensive preparations. Under such circumstances, April slowly passed. At the end of April, the number of listed companies on the Nordic Exchange had reached 80, including some French rich people, English The nobles also began to pay attention to Nord, a small stock market trading center.

  A major event occurred in Europe in May. James hurried to Paris to attend a meeting on the formation of the European Union. However, Joseph was not optimistic about this meeting because European countries had just begun to contact each other and trust was not at all possible.

  Joseph did not pay attention to the formation of the European Union for the time being. He was still the same. The Nord Stock Exchange Trading Center paid the most attention every day. At this time, it had made six Nord citizens millionaires. It is worth mentioning that this All six are engaged in the clothing industry.

  The Principality of Nord is firmly known as the fashion capital of Europe and the starting point of trends. The first Nord Fashion Show will start on May 28. Joseph can be sure that after that day, the stock price of Nord Clothing Company will definitely rise. Reach new heights.

  According to statistics from the Ministry of Commerce, as of May 1981, there were ten private companies in the Principality of Nord with assets worth tens of millions, including three clothing companies, one tourism company, one foreign trade company, two food companies, one taxi company and two Retail supermarket chain.

  Nordic GDP in April was $70 million, and per capita annual salary was $1,300, an increase of 90 percentage points from last year. Of course, this is only the per capita income of citizens. If labor is included, it will undoubtedly be reduced a lot. After all, labor wages are only those of Nord citizens. About half of.

  But then the workers will be very satisfied. $600 is equivalent to about ￥1100. What is China's living standard at this time? The annual salary is only three to four hundred, and the consumption level of the Nord Principality is not very high.

  Of course, not high is a relative term. If they go to a luxury store to spend money, it is estimated that their annual salary cannot buy a mid-range item in it. This is the national situation of the Principality of Nord at this time, and the consumption gap is widening!

  The construction of the Central District is about to be completed. In the future, the Central District of the Principality of Nord will be the economic center. Luxury shops, five-star hotels, casinos, yacht clubs, etc. will be placed in the Central District, while ordinary shops and hotels will be located in Nord. Royal Island, Industrial Zone Life Park and Beicheng District.

  The gap between rich and poor is not a good thing, but it is something that a country cannot avoid. Joseph's purpose is to let them minimize their own impact and not let citizens have too much resentment.
