Reinventing the Millennium.

Chapter 810 Stabbing Knife (Two in One)

Shorting Lehman is well-known.

After the Spring Festival, as Xiong Xiaoge’s short-selling income on Zhihu’s live broadcast came to an end, Mr. Fang Zhuo, the richest man in the mainland, announced a new short-selling plan to continue the past and open up the future.

Six months ago, Lehman's stock price was $81.06.

A month ago, Lehman's share price was $80.32.

However, within the last month, Lehman's stock price has fallen continuously. As of February 2, its stock price was 21 US dollars, a drop of 72.56%.

Judging from the final result, this 5+1 change is not without drama.

Although Lehman is not a minority in the decline of U.S. stock prices, it is falling, and it is making a short-selling behavior that has attracted the attention of many people in China to obtain benefits.

As the most influential person in multiple live broadcasts, Xiong Xiaoge spent all his net worth of 10 yuan in the final result, which attracted much attention. After deducting bank fees, he made a total profit of 9156 yuan.

In other words, following Fang Zhuo's shorting of Lehman, the annualized return is 18.3%.

The short-selling fund has allocated a total of 3 million Huaxia coins in the Mainland. According to this income, the final result is 3.549 million yuan with interest.

The vast number of financial managers made a total of 5490 million Huaxia coins from Lehman, equivalent to 703 million US dollars.

Most importantly, this is a risk-free return ballasted by Fang's total funds.

Neither the bank nor Fang Zhuo disclosed the number of people who shorted together. However, someone did a simple mathematical calculation in the comment area of ​​Xiong Xiaoge's last live broadcast.

"I went to the bank and asked, there is a limit for shorting this time, and a single person can only invest 30 yuan at most. Based on the capital scale of 3 million yuan, the number of people who shorted Lehman with President Fang in China is at least 1000 people!"

"Considering that there are many simple bets like Mr. Xiong for fun, it is estimated that at least 3000 people will participate in shorting international investment banks this time."

"This is not only President Fang's victory, but also our big guy's victory!"

In addition to the comments on estimating the scale of the battle in this way, many people expressed regret after seeing the final result.

"I thought it was troublesome at the time. I knew it would be like this...I'm so stupid, really! I only knew that Lehman was an international giant, but I didn't expect Mr. Fang to be the killer of giants!"

"I appeal with my real name, and I hope Mr. Fang will cancel the investment limit! Mr. Fang will use small leverage. I can't repay it. I can only sell the house and gamble to see whether to wear leather shoes or straw sandals!"

"I'm not going to sell the house. I'm going to sell the car I just picked up last year. I'll see if I can change to two cars in half a year."

"Mr. Xiong, let Mr. Fang take the brothers to charge again! This time I will definitely follow!"

"Mr. Xiong, you must really give out all your wealth this time! This opportunity is not to be missed, and time will never come again!"

Xiong Xiaoge's live post became extremely lively because of Fang Zhuo's updates. Similarly, Fang Zhuo's updates even caused Zhihu's server to freeze for a while, and the number of registrations on the website also had a strange growth curve.

"Boss Fang obviously can swipe Lehman solo, but he still takes us to play together. Whoever attacks Boss Fang in the future must pass me first!"

"Mr. Fang, I haven't gotten in the car yet, I haven't gotten in the car yet, hurry up, the fund is here!"

"Use one word to describe Mr. Fang, fierce! Use two words, mighty! Use three words, I love you!"

When Fang Zhuo had time to look at his comment section, there was already a crowd of heroes dancing, and everyone was very excited.

He looked at it for a long time, and really didn't know how to respond to those "shows of love", "praises" and "appeals". In the end, he could only give a regular reminder-financial management is risky, and investment needs to be cautious.

After the short-selling fund started to leverage, this time the risk was not entirely borne by him personally.

However, having said that, considering the continuous situation ahead, there should be no problem with the second batch of large-scale short-selling performance art performances.

At the same time, Fang Zhuo does not plan to disclose the size of his short-selling funds this time, so that he can have a good fund explanation in the future.

On February 2, the enthusiasm for shorting Lehman permeated the Internet for the second time. Compared with the doubts and wait-and-sees last time, the views this time are generally inclined.

——"China has two regiments shorting Lehman"

——"Mr. Fang, Love Me Again"

—— "The Richest Man in the Mainland Eyes on International Investment Banks"

Perhaps because the acquisition deal between Penguin and Friends.com is about to be concluded, even Penguin's portal website has a large space to comment on the other party's shorting of the Lehman incident. In the article, there is no lack of praise, "Mr. Fang once again proved how good his vision is." Keen", "This is the reason Mr. Fang is Mr. Fang", "Let's see what happens next"...

This afternoon, Friends.com, who worked overtime for the delivery, basically completed the procedures. According to the agreement, Penguin will pay the transaction consideration in one lump sum within 5 days after the delivery date.

Maybe everyone didn't want to procrastinate. Only two days later, Penguin happily paid 15.5 billion acquisition funds.

With Penguin's announcement on the Hong Kong stock market that it has formally acquired Friends.com, its stock price rose by 5% in one day, which is a good start to the new year.

That is, on the night of this day, Sina held a conference call to fully discuss the prospects and development of the new project Weibo, and it was confirmed that Wang Xing, the former president of Friends.com, and Wang Gaofei, the vice president of Sina, will jointly develop the holding subsidiary Weibo. Bo's new social platform business.

Finally, everyone still hesitates about one thing, when will Weibo, which is ready for everything, go online.

Fang Zhuo delegated the discussion, thinking that any time would be fine.

Wang Yan learned how Mr. Fang manages the company. After all, the subsidiary Weibo will have a large degree of independence.

When will Weibo be launched?

In the end, the new president, Wang Xing, made the final decision: "Tomorrow is tomorrow, tomorrow is tomorrow!"

He can't wait, he can't wait to go online tonight!

No objection, all passed.

Then, Weibo, which is committed to building a new social platform in China, will launch an internal test at 2:23 pm on February [-].

At 09:30 in the evening, Fang Zhuo finished another communication with Wang Xing on the development of Weibo, thinking deeply about the schedule for the next day.

The private plane just flew from Luzhou to Beijing today, and Dr. Liang was officially discharged from the hospital, ready to return to the United States.

The key problem of Ice Core in the 65nm process was solved by Liang Mengsong, who has personally experienced it at Taiji. According to Qiu Ciyun's report, a risky trial production will be attempted in the first quarter.

That's even a month sooner than estimated.

If it can be completed in March, small-scale mass production and yield improvement will start from April to June to prepare for the next formal mass production.

According to the plan, in the third quarter of the second half of the year, ice core's 65nm production capacity should be delivered.

Qiu Ciyun's voice on the phone was very excited, every call was very excited.

Fang Zhuo felt the same way, and had similar ups and downs of joy.

It seems that Yike's mobile phone can also try to use a chip produced by its own wafer factory.

……

On February 2rd, at 23 o'clock in the morning, the countdown to Weibo's launch began. Sina and Weibo were working overtime last night, preparing for the internal test of the first launch.

Fang Zhuo was also assigned the task of posting the first Weibo, but he has other arrangements today, so Wang Xing will do it for him.

At eight o'clock in the morning, Fang Zhuo, who simply finished his breakfast, took a car to inspect the construction of the CMOS sensor production line that Sony and Bingxin cooperated in Shencheng.

As an outside director of the company, Fang Zhuo has no right to intervene in the company's operations. However, through the good relationship with Stringer and the common interests with Sony at this stage, the cooperation between the two parties has a trend of deepening.

Recently, Bertelsmann, the other party in the Sony Bertelsmann music company, appeared, and it seemed that he wanted to sell the joint venture shares.

This music company owns the music copyrights of two major record companies, Sony and Bertelsmann, of which Yike holds 5% of the shares. The online music share brought by the best-selling music player has provided the company with good digital music benefits.

It's unclear whether Bertelsmann's news is a test, but the German company seems to be thinking of leaving the record industry.

In addition to the music field that has been cooperating, Yike Mobile and Sony Ericsson signed a patent licensing agreement, and the e-commerce company Tesco has also made great efforts to promote Sony products on the Internet...

In addition, the CMOS sensor used by Yike mobile phone was determined to be purchased from Sony early on, and the production line of Bingxin in Shencheng is a model of capital, technology and talent cooperation.

Fang Zhuo is very optimistic that this production line will continue to create greater common interests for both parties.

Music, mobile phones, sensors, and future financial crises.

Fang Zhuo believes that he, as a foreign director, has a deeper relationship with the company.

In the morning, the chairman of Ice Core inspected the No. [-] Ice Core Factory located in Zhangjiang High-tech Park, and delivered an important speech on the construction of the production line, which greatly encouraged the morale of Chinese and Japanese employees, enhanced everyone's enthusiasm for love and dedication, and the enthusiasm for Ice Core cohesion and centripetal force.

At noon, Fang Zhuo was eating in the cafeteria. He paid more attention to the living problems of Sony employees after they came to China, and asked the senior management team to do a good job in logistics support, and to give Japanese engineers the opportunity to impart their technical skills.

At 01:30 in the afternoon, when Fang Zhuo was hesitating whether to visit SMIC in Zhangjiang, he received a call from Wang Dongsheng, the founder of BOE.

Wang Dongsheng's tone was a little tense, the tension was mixed with weirdness, and the weirdness revealed excitement.

"Mr. Fang, the US seems to be investigating the panel monopoly."

Fang Zhuo asked: "Closed investigation? How did you know?"

"There are some abnormal behaviors of ordering from American manufacturers." Wang Dongsheng said vaguely, "It's not the normal purchasing price comparison. Also, I heard a little bit of news."

Since BOE's LCD panels were put into production, Samsung's back pain has stopped, Sharp's legs have stopped soreness, and LG's LCD production has become more vigorous.

Wang Dongsheng has participated in several manufacturers' meetings on panel prices in Xiangjiang.

"Mr. Fang, when do you think it's appropriate for me to stand up?"

Wang Dongsheng has no experience, and when he noticed something unusual one year later, he thought of Mr. Fang who came up with his idea.

"At the earliest, we have to wait for the public investigation over there. The United States is in charge of the judiciary, and the current leader is Gonzalez." Fang Zhuo is familiar with this area, and said thoughtfully, "When I go to the United States to find contacts and inquire about the situation .”

Wang Dongsheng was relieved, Mr. Fang was still reliable, not only gave bad ideas, but also provided after-sales services.

Fang Zhuo said again: "Anyway, as long as BOE jumps out faster than the other companies, they will definitely hesitate. You will stand up and change your mind when the time comes. You are a competitor in the first place, and you will talk about losses in the future."

If you fight for losses, you can only fight for losses.

The market was not very good, and the financial crisis came again.

Domestic BOE has finally entered the high-generation line, and the higher-ups will not let it lose money. South Korea is also playing counter-cyclical hardships. Now, it is now learning from other people's advanced experience.

When Wang Dongsheng heard the word "loss", he could only smile wryly. The production line in Beijing has been losing money, and Luzhou is still losing less.

The two exchanged a few more words about the stabbing, and when the call ended, Fang Zhuo thought about not affecting the normal work of SMIC, so he gave up the idea of ​​talking about it in the past.

At 02:30 in the afternoon, there is only half an hour left before Weibo goes online.

Fang Zhuo sat in the car back to Hang Lung, thinking about the new competition this time.

In fact, he is also very curious whether Penguin will keep up with the first hand in the same way, or stick to the oriental Facebook, which has been favored in terms of stock price.

About this friend network was acquired by Penguin.

Fang Zhuo has noticed the analysis of some media, and generally believes that this has a very positive significance for Penguin to build a social platform.

However, in Fang Zhuo's view, whether this is a tonic or poison depends on how the penguin handles it.

Friends.com is not easy to solve the problem of the social stage of the whole people. Penguin is probably not too sensitive because of the premature introduction of the traffic pool. It relies on the hegemony of the traffic to conquer the world, and the specific micro-operations are prone to a slight difference.

In the final analysis, can the Fb model of the real-name system achieve greater success in the current Chinese Internet environment?
If the penguin can solve it, it can digest the social interaction of acquaintances. If it can't solve it, it may leave a lot of chicken feathers after pouring resources.

Regardless of whether the penguin will be backlashed or not, he is already preparing gifts in the field of communication in the mobile era.

Yike reached an agreement with Google before, and will have a built-in software position in the Android system. This product mainly in the field of mobile communication is being developed and polished, but it will not be launched as soon as the Yike mobile phone is launched.

When an Android phone has a considerable number of users in China, it will stand up and compete with Penguin.

The social field, the mobile communication field, and the C2C Paipai.com that Penguin attaches great importance to at the moment.

If Taobao continues to make efforts, it may still be a pain for Penguin in the e-commerce field where it is difficult to give full play to its traffic advantages.

Three fields, three major and small challenges.

Fang Zhuo felt that in the future, he really needed to discuss the penguin shares he held with Wang Fengyi.

Three o'clock in the afternoon.

Weibo is officially launched.

The Weibo account certified as "Fang Zhuo" was published by Wang Xing, the first Weibo on the entire network.

——Who is the real oriental Facebook?

At 23:[-] p.m., the President's Office of Hang Lung [-].

Fang Zhuo looked at the Weibo page on the computer screen and saw the first sentence on his account, thinking that this seriously violated his spirit of being kind to others, and regretted letting Wang Xing post it.

No need, no need.

He logs into his account, deletes and reposts.

——Hello everyone, I am Fang Zhuo, welcome to follow me and pay attention to the Yike mobile phone that will be launched this year.

Quite well, this is what I should say.

Ah Xing, young man.

Young man, too angry.

　It's the weekend, eight thousand words tomorrow.
