“我们将在世界上每一个地方都享有相当可观的市场占有率，还包括在美国和中国也享有领先地位。”In early trading in Europe, shares of Nokia rose 3.1 percent while shares of Alcatel-Lucent fell 10.9 percent.欧洲早盘，诺基亚股价下跌了3.1%，阿尔卡特朗讯暴跌了10.9%。

The deal is expected to be completed in the first half of next year, with Nokia shareholders owning 66.5 percent of the telecom giant and Alcatel-Lucent investors holding the rest.拆分预计将于明年上半年已完成，诺基亚的股东将享有新的电信巨头66.5%的股份，其余股份归阿尔卡特朗讯的投资人所有。
