Alibaba, the first to admit to a good listing preparation, I am afraid that the biggest rival Jingdong a little nervous. 14th, news came out, Jingdong has launched the IPO process, and commissioned PwC audit. But Beijing-East officials responded yesterday that the news was not known, "so far, there is no clear timetable for the listing of the Beijing-east."

Speculation on the Beijing-East IPO has never been interrupted, and Alibaba's high-profile move has deepened the credibility of the rumours. In fact, as the domestic electric business faucet, Jingdong and Alibaba, landing the capital market is only a matter of time. According to the industry's forecasts, Jingdong will avoid Alibaba's listing node, do not rule out that it will Rob Ali before the listing.

A good listing of Alibaba, was sent to PPLive signed a takeover agreement. However, PPLive CEO Tao in his microblog denied. PPLive sought the news of a long history, before, there are rumors that pplive and Sohu video, Alibaba, Suningyun business and other companies are in the negotiations financing acquisition.

People familiar with the story say that if a deal does occur, Sohu may disclose its earnings at the end of July. Prior to the news that 360 of the acquisition of Sogou has not been formally finalized, Sogou and 360, Baidu is still in negotiations.

Now the only confirmation of the current unlisted Internet company is Shanda literature. July 9, Shanda literature has just announced a 110 million dollar financing for the Goldman Sachs Group peace talks. Chu Wenyu, president of Shanda's network, chairman of Shanda Literature, said the financing was more than the size of many IPOs (IPO). However, this does not help the grand literature listing. On 12th, Shanda said it withdrew its initial public offerings, saying it was due to the current market situation.

Shanda Literature previously submitted an IPO application to the Securities and Futures Commission, seeking to issue up to $200 million U.S. depository Shares (ADS). The withdrawal of the application also means that since the launch of the IPO plan in May 2011, Shanda Literature has remained on the road to public listing.

People familiar with the matter said that Shanda literature had received notice from the SEC a few weeks ago, and the SEC gave two choices to Shanda literature: adding new information or withdrawing the prospectus, and submitting it when the time was ripe, and Shanda literature chose the latter.

However, this does not mean that the grand literature should completely abandon the listing. People with knowledge of the analysis, if the grand literature that this year 9, October market environment good enough, then, in August to submit applications, the U.S. Securities and Futures Commission only need to audit 1 months time, Shanda literature can restart the listing. If the overall capital environment continues to be detrimental to China's concept stocks, Shanda literature may abandon this year's listing and seek a listing next year.
