不过顺便说一句，你当时在达沃斯和
J. I was I was there but that um uh
J. 我当时在那儿但那个呃
tour [laughter] to force uh look I I
精彩绝伦呃你看我我
I think you do all this work and I I think it's really difficult to to overestimate the amount of garbage that's involved in in going public.
我觉得你做了这么多工作而且我觉得上市过程中的破事多到怎么高估都不为过。
the number of meetings where you you look on the the Zoom and there are 130 attendees and the amount of times you review these documents and the commas move and and just no value added.
你开了无数次会看着 Zoom 里有130名参会者又无数次审阅这些文件结果只是逗号挪来挪去根本没有任何价值。
You go there and you have this enormous event and the next morning you've sold no more stuff.
你去那里办了一场盛大的活动而第二天早上卖出的东西一点也没增加。
your engineering projects have made no progress since the day you weren't public.
从上市前一天到现在你的工程项目毫无进展。
And you go back to work and um you you have some new constituents that that you have to to to address and communicate with, but the core parts of your business, you have more money in the bank.
然后你回去工作并且有了一些需要回应和沟通的新利益相关方，但业务的核心部分没变，银行账户里的钱更多了。
Um but not a damn thing changes in the important parts of your business.
但你业务中重要的部分压根没有任何变化。
um if you still if you need new supply or if your relationships with your vendors are bad, they're still bad.
如果你仍然需要新的供应或者你和供应商关系不好，关系还是不好。
If they're good, they're still good.
如果关系好，还是一样好。
And and so I I think what what we've seen is um you your employees have a party, everybody's really excited, and you put your head back down, you high five, and you go back to work.
所以我觉得我们看到的是员工们办了场派对，大家都特别兴奋，然后你又埋头苦干，互相击个掌，接着回去工作。
Can
能
can I can I just give a little context and then I want to hear from Will.
能不能让我先补充一点背景，然后我想听听 Will 怎么说。
You know, if if I can, Andrew, you know, we were investors in Cerebrus.
你知道，如果可以的话，Andrew，你知道，我们当时是 Cerebras 的投资者。
I was on the board a year earlier where we were trying to go public.
一年前我们尝试上市时，我还在董事会。
Um, and you know, aside from just being a warrior who weathered a decade worth of storms that would have taken out any normal human being, the path to going public for Cerebras was a particularly challenging one.
嗯，你知道，除了你本身就是一名勇士，扛过了足以击垮任何普通人的十年风雨，Cerebras 的上市之路也格外艰难。
One of their investors was the UAE.
他们的一位投资者来自阿联酋。
So there was questions about CPHAS, you know, in in the prior under the Biden administration challenging to get public.
所以当时存在一些 CFIUS 方面的问题，你知道，在之前的 Biden 政府时期很难上市。
My observation outside looking in is everything was really hard until it got really easy like n 9 and a half years of really hard and then 12 months you know of of of really easy where everybody wanted to get in.
我作为局外人的观察是之前一切都非常艰难直到突然变得非常容易大概有 9 年半特别难然后有 12 个月你知道特别容易所有人都想参与。
They priced the IPO at 185 which was up the range was taken up two times.
他们把 IPO 定价为 185 定价区间上调了两次。
