Therefore, the pre-opening inquiry range can be regarded as a weather vane after the stock is officially opened for trading. As the first Huizhong stock listed on the New York Stock Exchange, its performance has naturally attracted much attention.

In order to make investors and stockholders more noticeable about Huizhong stocks with the code HZ, the NYSE deliberately put HZ stock information on top today.

At this moment, in the stock column with the stock code HZ, the inquiry range has risen from the issue price of $130 to $132-135.

It took less than 5 minutes to start the inquiry, and Huizhong's stock has increased by US$5 from the issue price.

In the trading floor, many people’s eyes were staring at the inquiring range of Huizhong’s stock constantly beating, 130-135, 133-136, 136-140, 141-145... in less than an hour, Huizhong’s The inquiry range jumped to US$147-150.

An hour later, Huizhong shares officially opened for trading. The first transaction price, the opening price, was set at 151.4 US dollars, which was a 16.4% increase from the issue price!

Big green at the opening (US stocks rose in green and fell in red)!

In the entire trading floor, there was another round of warm applause, and many people around Fang Zhe and the executives of Huizhong expressed their congratulations.

Fang Zhe shook hands with them one by one to thank them. Some of them were executives of underwriters, some were executives of the NYSE, and some were representatives of investors or stockholders. The joy of everyone present was beyond words. The big opening and successful listing is a success for each of them!

When Fang Zhe was discussing with the senior executives and friends around him, a beautiful reporter with blond hair and blue eyes in a small orange suit with a microphone, led by the staff to Fang Zhe, behind her, a tall Ma Da The brown-haired little brother is carrying the camera and aiming at Fang Zhe.

Fang Zhe just remembered that he had already agreed before. From more than a dozen media reporters who applied to interview him on the New York Stock Exchange today, he selected the reporter from Bloomberg.

"Hello Mr. Fang Zhe, this is Bloomberg's reporter Mary. First of all, on behalf of Bloomberg, I would like to congratulate the Huizhong company that you founded on the New York Stock Exchange for listing on the New York Stock Exchange. Interview, then I would like to ask how you feel right now?" Mary, a beauty reporter from Bloomberg, interviewed Fangzhe Xiang with a smile.

Fang Zhe returned her with a big smile, and said in a happily tone: "You can see my smile, smile is the language of the world, everyone can understand it!"

Mary was infected by Fang Zhe’s smile, and the smile on her face became more relaxed. At the same time, she continued to ask:

"As far as I know, Huizhong was founded 5 years ago in 2008, when you were only a senior student. What gave you the courage to disregard your studies and not go for an internship in a big company like others? Work, but resolutely chose to start a business and founded Huizhong!"

Fang Zhe smiled lightly, but his thoughts seemed to be hooked back five years ago. When he had just left school to start a business, and even just returned from his rebirth, his achievements in this life are already much greater than in his previous life. Everyone thinks that this life is the most real reality, and the previous life is just a dream of nothingness.

With composure, Fang Zhe gave himself the answer: "I think it is the dream and the sense of mission that have given me courage. The opportunities of the times are fleeting, and the times have chosen me, and I have conformed to this era!"

Fang Zhe’s answer echoes his previous view that “enterprise needs to follow the trend”, only he himself understands that there is a deeper meaning in his words.

Beauty reporter Mary Fang Zhe's answer was very satisfied. Even if this line is written as a news report, it is quite artistic and compelling.

Next, Mary’s question was that the crowds around could not help but prick their ears. Mary looked up at Huizhong’s stock price on the big screen above the exchange, and then lowered her head and asked:

“Now Huizhong’s stock price has risen to US$158. Based on this estimate, Huizhong’s market value has exceeded US$440 billion. Based on your shareholding in Huizhong, your current value has exceeded US$220 billion. The position of the world’s richest man has been You are firmly occupied.

Even if the wealth of Bill Gates, Buffett and other people is not as large as you, what do you plan to do with so much money, do you think anyone will surpass your wealth in the future? How long will it be and which one is most likely to come from? industry?"

Mary asked this question as early as when Fang Zhe participated in the dialogue program at the beginning of the year, but it was clear that Americans did not watch Chinese programs very much, and the Bloomberg reporter in front of him did not know about it.

So Fang Zhe used English again and simply stated his own plan. The wealth in the stock market is only numbers after all. What is more important is to see how much real useful value it can bring to the world and consolidate Huizhong’s existing Business, investment and support for start-ups, investment in scientific research, education, and charity, and other commonplace rhetoric, became Fang Zhe’s answer.

As for whether someone will surpass Fang Zhe’s wealth in the future, how long it will appear, and which industry is most likely to come from, Fang Zhe’s answer is simple: I don’t know!

Although Fang Zhe has countless speculations in his heart, artificial intelligence, the holographic world, and the industry that masters the most advanced technology of the times will inevitably be the easiest to give birth to the next person who surpasses Fang Zhe’s wealth, but who knows whether the founder will follow Just like opening up and keeping the company's shareholding ratio, or is it not at all what Fang Zhe speculated, but from energy or other fields?

Why do you think so much about the future?

The only thing Fang Zhe has to do is to be a good self and develop Huizhong. As for the future, time will give the most accurate answer!

Fang Zhe continued to accept Mary's interview and questioning. Between the two people talking and laughing, the New York Stock Exchange once again ushered in a small climax. Huizhong's stock price exceeded $160!

According to this calculation, Huizhong's real-time market value has exceeded 448 billion US dollars, surpassing Apple to become the world's largest listed company by market value!

However, at this time, the madness of investors and stockholders seems to have come to an end. When the close of the afternoon was approaching, Huizhong’s stock price began to oscillate and fall from the highest point of US$162, and experienced several consecutive small-scale fluctuations in the middle. After the ups and downs, it finally closed at a price of 156.2 US dollars per share, an increase of 20.1% from the issue price!

Huizhong's closing market value is more than 438 billion US dollars, ranking second in the world with a market value of 447 billion US dollars after Apple!
