Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley suggested that Woaw set the issue price of its shares at $2.75-3. If the highest price is $3 per share, Woaw Technology's market value will reach $12 billion.
Based on this market value, even Goldman Sachs, which participated in the financing the latest, has more than doubled its returns on the Woaw shares it holds.
It is no wonder that they are willing to sell part of their shares in this IPO to recover funds... It must be said that Goldman Sachs is very cautious. They sold about one-third of their shares and prepared to get back the invested funds first.
Woaw Technology will be listed on the Nasdaq in early March. The reason for choosing Nasdaq instead of the London Stock Exchange is that in addition to the fact that more than half of their users are currently from the North American market, it is also because listing on the Nasdaq will result in a higher valuation for Internet technology companies.

As Christmas approaches, the festive atmosphere on the streets becomes more intense, and many businesses have added Christmas-themed decorations.
Including the pages of Argos.com, they have all been changed to a Christmas background, and they have started their annual big promotion, using this time to increase sales.
This year, Amazon launched the Prime membership service in North America. Members only need to pay a fixed membership fee of US$79 per year to enjoy unlimited two-day delivery service for free, with no minimum spending limit.
In response to this service, before Christmas this year, Argos Retail Group also announced the upgrade of their membership system.
Before this, Argos.com members were able to earn corresponding points in their daily online shopping, which could be used to offset some fees including packaging and delivery fees.
Now, in response to Amazon's Prime membership service in North America, Argos.com has also launched a VIP membership...
Argos.com members can become VIP members by paying 59 euros per year, and during this period, they will enjoy the same unlimited two-day delivery service in the countries and regions opened by Argos.com.
It should be noted that, unlike domestic e-commerce in China, neither Amazon nor Argos.com has the default concept of free shipping.
This service only guarantees that the goods will arrive within two days, and the postage still needs to be paid by the user extra...
Before the holiday, Barron took time out to accompany Julia Moore to the Royal Brompton Hospital for a physical examination again - one of the best heart disease hospitals in the UK.
The results of the examination made Barron very satisfied, indicating that Yulia was in good physical condition and her family's hereditary diseases did not manifest themselves.
"Baby, we can have a child in other ways..."
After accompanying her back home, Barron held Yulia's hand and said gently,
"I know you like children very much."
Indeed, when Rebecca and her daughter Jennifer were still living in London, Julia often went to visit them.
It can be seen that Julia likes Jennifer very much and even becomes her godmother.
Yulia herself was a person who devoted most of her time to work, but at that time, most of her time outside of work was spent with Jennifer.
At that time, Rebecca was still continuing her studies at Cambridge University which had been interrupted.
It can be said that the time Julia spent with Jennifer was no less than that spent by Rebecca.
In addition to Rebecca, Julia also has a good relationship with Countess Chris and Lady Hall Catherine.
In other words, apart from Barron's female assistant, Yulia is the woman who knows Barron's "private life" best because she manages the family trust - many of the expenses of Barron's women and his children are provided through the family trust.
At some point she was responsible for managing Barron's "harem".
After hearing Barron's words, Yulia had a somewhat tempted expression, but she changed her tone and said,
"Forget it. This is actually not bad. Don't worry about me. I've figured it out a long time ago."
She naturally knew how the two children of Countess Chris and Earl Bute were obtained.
Indeed, in this way, she could avoid her own medical condition, which could endanger her life during pregnancy.
But Yulia's own physical condition is only one of the reasons why she doesn't want children. She also doesn't want to pass on her hereditary disease to her children.
For Barron, a position like Yulia's "chief steward of the harem" is naturally best for her if she doesn't want children, because people are always selfish, and without children, she can treat everyone more equally.
But Yulia is his woman after all, and Barron would also think about her. Now that Yulia still insisted, he did not continue to talk about this topic.
"What's this?"
Seeing Barron handing her the box he had just brought from the car, Yulia couldn't help but ask.
"An early Christmas present for you."
"I'm not a child..."
Although she said so, you can tell from Yulia's smile that she is still very happy.
"What a beautiful necklace."
Although Yulia can be considered a workaholic on weekdays, she is also a woman after all. After opening the exquisite gift box, she saw a jewelry box inside that looked simple and elegant.

Even this jewelry box can be called a work of art.
The necklace in the jewelry box does not look complicated in shape. It is a platinum necklace inlaid with dozens of crystal clear diamonds.
However, the most eye-catching among these diamonds is the red diamond in the middle.
The red diamond is not big, only 0.95 carats, but this diamond has a name, called the Hancock Red Diamond, also known as a "natural wonder"...
This red diamond was originally part of the collection of Mr. Hancock, a farmer in Montana, USA. It is said that he bought the diamond for $13,500 in 1956.
Later, the Hank's Red Diamond appeared at a Christie's auction in April 1987, when it was estimated at $100,000 to $150,000. The final selling price was $880,000, or $926,000 per carat, breaking all records for diamonds at the time.
You have to know that it was $880,000 in the 1980s!
The reason why the Hancock Red Diamond, with a weight of 0.95 carats, can become one of the top diamonds is because of its unique color - Fancy Purple-Red.
You should know that only one out of 100,000 diamonds can be rated as "Fancy", and red diamonds are even rarer. Even an experienced diamond dealer would consider himself very lucky if he could handle more than three red diamonds in his lifetime.
Barron bought the Hancock Red Diamond through a dealer for $4.5 million and commissioned a well-known jeweler to make it into this necklace.
For people of Barron's stature, the value of the gift is important, but what's more important is the thought that went into the gift.
After all, money is just a number to him.
No matter how expensive the gift was, as long as he wanted to give it, all he needed was to sign the bill.
But in order to give a gift, spending time and thought on it can show the position of the other person in his mind.
Therefore, after learning the ins and outs of the making of this necklace, Yulia looked at Barron with eyes full of affection.
It seems that the atmosphere has been set here, and it goes without saying what will happen next.
