This is a lapse of nearly 8 months, Chinese Internet companies to the U.S. listed again, YY listing is seen as the ice-breaking trip. As the founder and CEO of Lee Colling, and as investors and chairman of the Lei, became the most dazzling venture and investment stars.

But talking about the future development and market competition, Lee Colling and deliberately keep calm, the listing significance is not only financing, but also to enhance the value of YY brand important opportunities. "After the listing to forget the share price bar", the mobile market is the future YY the biggest challenge, but also the most important opportunity.

YY is the first Lei investment company listed in the United States, his face is full of excitement, but deliberately low-key unwilling to rob Lee Colling's Thunder. Morning Lei has been holding a second generation of millet cell phone, recording yy listed precious moments, and constantly active and passive smile with a group photo. See the Nasdaq advertising screen to play their own photos of the moment, lei holding the phone silently left this lens, perhaps he is more looking forward to the future millet listing that scene.

The Lee Colling of pioneering star

Black Chinese collar, wrinkled old shoes, in the eyeful of the Nasdaq exchange, and the Lee Colling, YY founder and CEO is particularly prominent. Today is his big day, he is the protagonist of Nasdaq, founded 7 years of the company finally to the market. For entrepreneurs, this is a dream come true day.

But the current U.S. capital markets are not a good time to go public, especially for China stocks. Since the end of March, the Nasdaq has not welcomed the listing of Chinese companies for nearly 8 months, and due to the apathy of investors, Shenzhou rented a 140 million-dollar IPO plan in May. The "trust crisis" has left China's concept stocks in the doldrums of recent years.

Because of this, YY's listing more interesting. "It's an ice-breaking trip for Chinese internet companies, and we're going to show the courage of the Chinese concept stock company," Lee Colling said of Sina technology. Round face he wears color glasses, laugh a bit cuddly, and the company mascot of the hands of the small raccoon fell a bit alike. Yes, he is the founder of YY, is the raccoon's prototype, he is proud of the horse dance.

Lee Colling, 36 years old, worked before the "China Youth Daily", Sohu and NetEase and other media. 2005 he resigned as the editor-in-chief of NetEase, the creation of game Advisory portal more play network. 2008 launched the Voice communication software YY client, currently has a registered user 400 million people, active users 70.4 million, occupy more than 84% of the market share. These are Lee Colling's confident capital.

Big day, Lee Colling and CFO He Zhenyu and other senior executives came to the exchange near Times Square in New York, with fluent Chinese and English to receive multiple rounds of interviews with Chinese and foreign media reporters. Why the listing, how to go in the future, how to use funds, these problems are clearly ready to know. Facing a female journalist with a card word, Lee Colling even smiled and said, "Don't be nervous."

9:30 Bell ringing ceremony, the Nasdaq representative of YY expressed a warm welcome, "YY registered users more than 400 million people, even more than the United States population." Thanksgiving Day is coming, today on the Nasdaq for YY are a happy day. Here are 131 Chinese listed companies, welcome yy to become one of them.

Lee Colling like a prize star on stage, "Today we came to Nasdaq, finally dream come true!" , YY team took a group photo, the Hall of color flying, Lee Colling's wife and fast 6-year-old son standing in the front. On the stock price trend, Lee Colling does not seem to value "after the listing forget the share price, good business is the right way, good companies will always be recognized by the market."

Tencent is yy to avoid the topic, from entrepreneurship to growth to the future, yy to the Penguin way to the body of Tencent, in the instant messaging industry in Tencent took the game communications market segment, and then to the platform to expand the scope of business, games to music to education. From the cultivation of user scale gradually explore the revenue model, "grass-eating company's slow state, large-scale capacity; don't think about competition, don't rush to profit, do good products and users", this is his share of entrepreneurial success experience.

Once afraid of Tencent imitation and deliberately low-key him, now seems to want to open, "listed, want low-key also low-key." Take the money, first or to do a good job of research and development recruit staff, the product is the core of YY. The significance of listing is not limited to financing, can help us expand overseas new markets, bring new partners, YY will bring future development opportunities. When it comes to concrete plans, Lee Colling again with a cautious look, "we need to ask a lawyer to make it public."

The entrepreneur is Nasdaq's star, Lee Colling has not been carried away by success. He thanked users, employees and investors, respectively. Employees in the stage cheering and clapping, lei in the side holding a millet smile photographed, and his most grateful to the grassroots users, in the domestic game platform continue to fight. For them, YY listing is not important, product easy to use is the key.
