Chapter 179 He Just Loves His Fragile Little Fox (1)
It was nine o'clock in the morning in Los Angeles and the weather was still cold, but luxury cars were already parked in front of the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, and the lights were flashing.
The red carpet ceremony was at 10 o'clock, but that didn't stop the stars from arriving early in the cold wind.
At a high-end luxury goods counter nearby, Phil was trying hard to promote sales, but only a few celebrities came to visit. They looked at the unfamiliar brands and turned away.
Feeling a little anxious, Phil ran to the second floor of the pizza shop next door.
It was quite happy to see Lu Qi holding a pizza and holding a binoculars in one hand, looking at the handsome young man on the red carpet in the distance.
"Oh my, that's the young Donny. He's even more handsome than in the vampire movies."
Phil pinched his brows and pulled Lu Qi's telescope away: "Madam... Madam... Miss Johnson!"
Lu Qi blinked, holding up a piece of pizza with cheese on the corner of his mouth: "What are you doing? Do you want to eat a piece?"
"Wait." Lu Qi put the pizza in his hand on the plate beside him, tore off a whole triangle piece, and handed it to Phil, "Here."
What are you saying?
Phil paused and took the pizza.
"Why aren't you in a hurry at all? No one's interested in our wine yet. It's already 9:25. The New York Stock Exchange opens in five minutes, and I'm afraid it'll be the lowest price of the day."
Lu Qi took back his half pizza and took a bite. "Will there be any problems with opening at the lowest price?"
This question left Phil speechless for a moment.
With a husband who's such a big shot in the family and controls half of the New York Stock Exchange, does she know nothing about capital market indices? Doesn't she even talk about them on a regular basis?
Phil raised his head and thought about it... Don't say it, the thought of the two of them being together day and night makes him really not want to talk about it.
So, Phil gave Lu Qi a heartfelt lecture: "If the opening price is low, shareholders won't follow suit. If they don't, how can we raise the price? If we don't raise the price, it means our IPO is doomed, and it will be even harder to recover in the future."
Lu Qi nodded: "So, what do we want from small shareholders? Isn't it the big shareholder room?"
Okay, so you understand!
Phil was still a little confused. "But if even small investors don't like it, how can the big investors follow suit? Could it be that my wife wants my husband to take charge and bring in big investors?"
"Of course. I don't need to be stupid to have a husband."
Lu Qi picked up the hand-ground coffee and sipped it slowly. "But I can't let my husband lose face, right? So, I'll rush until 18 p.m., and he can figure out the rest."
"But the problem now is...it seems difficult for us to reach 18 points."
Phil took out his tablet and the New York Stock Exchange on Wall Street opened.
The new share price is 12.14, which is a huge gap from 18 points.
Lu Qi smiled and said, "No hurry, it's still half an hour until ten o'clock."
After saying that, Lu Qi took back his telescope and looked at the red carpet again. He didn't ask Phil again, "Is there any plan at ten o'clock?"

at this time.
In Manhattan, in the exclusive lounge on the upper floor of the New York Stock Exchange, dozens of landline phones on the desks rang one after another the moment the market opened.
The operator kept answering the phone and operating an independent computer. The numbers on it were so messy that ordinary people couldn't understand them.
Pei Yao sat on the leather chair in the spacious rest area, glanced around, and closed his eyes slightly.
James reported from the side: "Although we have made so many preparations before, it is a high-end niche channel brand after all. Madam, the opening value is not optimistic."
"What time is it now?" Pei Yao opened his eyes, took a sip of coffee, and said something similar to Lu Qi.
A tablet nearby was showing the red carpet ceremony in Los Angeles.
But I didn't pay much attention to who was walking on the red carpet, I was fiddling with other things on my phone.
An hour later, Pei Yao put down his phone. The content on the screen had been displayed in the theater, and the award ceremony was about to begin.
In the special exclusive hall of the New York Stock Exchange, other people had no time to watch entertainment at all. They were all busy trading, making phone calls, and answering computers.
James, on the other hand, had the leisure to take a look at this year's host.
"Linda is as sharp-tongued as ever. The Academy Award winners change every year, but she remains the same."
Pei Yao smiled faintly and said, "So no other celebrity can be as effective as her."
James was confused and was about to ask when he saw Linda, dressed in a white suit and a cross-dressing role, holding up a bottle of champagne in the shape of a diamond on the brightest stage on the screen.
The brand of champagne is the new brand of Napa Valley Estate, the latest product listed on the New York Stock Exchange, and the number one product in the series of "Golden Age".
At the Academy Awards Hall, at this highly anticipated moment, Linda gave a full minute talk show advertisement for the brand.
A minute later, the valuation of newly listed liquor stocks on the New York Stock Exchange increased by a full 3 points to 16.59.
same moment.
Calls from the exchange came in one after another.
In the federal state of New York, Texas, California, Florida, Utah... several large states suddenly appeared new brands at the same time.
The stock price soared again, breaking through the 18:00 mark. It was 11:50 New York time, ten minutes before lunchtime.

Dolby Theatre Mall Main Store in Los Angeles, California.
The Liquor brand wine counter was already packed with people. It was a very cold day and Phil was overwhelmed with people directing the sales staff, and he was sweating all over.
After finally running to the side to get a glass of water, Phil looked at Lu Qi, who was wearing a low-key burgundy woolen jacket and was leaning against the wall, looking leisurely.
He gave a thumbs up and said, "Madam, you are really good at planning. Linda's operation is amazing. But Linda was arranged by you, so what about the other major states? Are you also responsible?"
"Otherwise, I'm going to put all my eggs in one basket."
What a big boss! With the look on her face today, she can earn at least three million US dollars a day, yet she drinks hot water from a paper cup.
Phil was really impressed.
But there's still a problem: "But now that the price is opening so high, I'm afraid competitors will rush to snatch up the product, and we'll run out of stock and cut off our flow."
"It's okay, as long as we can supply it, just keep selling it. Didn't you notice Vivian is not here?" Lu Qi threw the paper cup into the trash can, then took a new one and handed it to Phil.
Otherwise, I would have asked Vivian to arrange it long ago.
The pirated factory had already negotiated with us before. They have the ability but not the technology, and their focus is on quantity.
After acquiring it, she turned it into her own winery chain industry chain, which could supply enough goods to all regions and she never had to worry about out-of-stock.
Phil's heart suddenly felt like a weight had been weighed on him. He wiped the sweat off his face with a handkerchief and said, "Okay, Madam, I'll get busy now. As for your dinner later..."
"I'm such a grown-up, and I can't even take care of myself while I eat? You take care of my money. I'm going to eat and get my hair done while I'm there."
Lu Qi weighed her hair, turned around and walked down the escalator next to the counter.
Lin Zixuan, who was queuing with the crowd to join in the fun, saw the familiar figure from afar.
I chased after him and shouted at the escalator entrance: "Aqi."
