Chapter 597 China's Best Business Leader (4k)

When John Paulson announced that he would join the short-selling army, Ali Baba’s stock price fell immediately, and a total of 1210 million shares were short-sold. The short-selling ratio was as high as 5.1%. The stock price per share fell from 38.6 Hong Kong dollars in three consecutive days. To 30.9 Hong Kong dollars.

If it hadn't caught up with the market break, it would have fallen below 30 Hong Kong dollars.

If so, the market value has evaporated by nearly 30 billion dollars!

Ari Baba had to issue an announcement:
"Don't try to short Ari Baba, the story of Ari Baba has just begun!"

But he avoids talking about fakes, and his attitude is ambiguous.

Wei Zhe even said at the press conference that Taoduoduo does sell fakes, but today's fake manufacturers, the quality of their products is better than the real ones, and the price is more affordable.

It is not fakes that crush these brands, but a new business model, the same factories, the same raw materials, but they do not use their own brands.

However, no one bought it.

Especially comparing Feigou and Ahri’s double eleven shopping festival battle reports, you are not afraid of not knowing the goods, but you are afraid of comparing goods. Before the listing, Feigou bullied Ahri. After the listing, Feigou bullied Ahli even more. Isn't Ari listed for nothing?
Xiangjiang's elders all count on Lu Yun to vent his anger!
It turned out to be a good thing, and Master Lu pretended to be all forced.

November 11th is undoubtedly Black Monday.

With the avalanche of PetroChina in the A-share market, the stock price of Hong Kong stocks plummeted, and the entire Hong Kong stock exchange was devastated. Ari was not immune to the disaster, and finally couldn't stand it, and fell to 29.8 Hong Kong dollars per share.

When Lu Yun lost money, Lu Fei had already won money.

"After deducting the 0.5% interest on borrowing stocks, if we stop now, we have made a net profit of 2847 million US dollars, which is considered a small profit. John asked us if we should continue to pursue it. He thought it might fall below 20 Hong Kong dollars, and Borrowing interest is also falling."

On the phone, Xu Xin kept laughing.

"Forget it, Sister Xin, no matter how you squeeze it, you won't be able to squeeze much oil from Ari." Lu Fei heard the knock on the door, and asked Tao Yao to come in and sit down, and wait for a while.

"Yes, the risk of shorting is not equal to the return."

Xu Xin said: "Fortunately, Ali is listed on the Hong Kong stock market. If it is listed on the US stock market, I am afraid it will not be as simple as it is now. Apart from the hungry wolves on Wall Street, the stock market vultures will also be eyeing it."

"So Feigou will definitely not be listed on the US stock market."

Lu Fei is too familiar with the poisonous hands that Chinese concept stocks have suffered both overtly and secretly.

Let’s talk about stock market vultures, that is, a group of “robber law firms” in the United States are dedicated to staring at listed companies. Whenever there is a sign of infringement, violation of the law, etc., they will immediately initiate a class action lawsuit for consumers and investors. If they win, they will get compensation. High commission.

It seems that an industrial chain has been formed.

"Smart move!"

Xu Xin ended the topic of shorting Ari and turned to subprime mortgages. Just yesterday, Bear Stearns announced the bankruptcy of two hedge funds under his name, exposing huge losses. Afterwards, Citigroup, Merrill Lynch, JPMorgan Chase, UBS, etc. Disclosing finances is pretty unhealthy.

Indistinctly, it has entered the stage of subprime mortgage explosion.

"Not yet."

Lu Fei calmly analyzed that the real outbreak would be triggered by the bankruptcy or acquisition of Bear Stearns, which is equivalent to sending a signal to the outside world that even Wall Street giants cannot survive subprime mortgages.

The foundation of the entire subprime mortgage building collapsed completely.

By the way, it will also detonate the P2P that has been buried for a long time.

"That may not be seen this year. It will be next year. Bear Stearns is still struggling and is fighting with us in long-short battles."

There was a hint of displeasure in Xu Xin's tone of voice.

The bulls on Wall Street stubbornly resisted and joined hands to prop up the market, allowing the ABX index to rebound. Bear Stearns secretly countered, and Lehman even came forward to acquire funds for problematic assets and maintain normal ratings and prices for CDOs. Similar black-box operations, JPMorgan Chase, Merrill Lynch, Citigroup, etc. are all doing it just to—

Control the price of CDS and stop raising the price.

"What's John's opinion?"

Lu Fei curled his lips. Fortunately, he had brought Goldman Sachs, and a pile of old money and new money into his camp. Otherwise, the chessboard would have been overturned. After all, Ying Jiang's morality should not be overestimated.

"He has come to unite with hedge funds like Greenlight and Quantum, which are also short sellers, to report Lehman and Bear Stearns to the Securities Regulatory Commission (SEC) for market manipulation, and to sue the court."

"It's going to be a tug of war."

"Isn't it? The cruelest thing about short selling is that if you press the right trend, it may not make you rich. If this stalemate continues, we will lose billions of dollars."

"Sister Xin, I think it's time for my book "The Big Short" to be published. Please ask the New York Times if it can be published in January?" Lu Fei rubbed his chin.

"Oh, I see. I'll help you to ask right away."

Xu Xin hung up the phone immediately, and Lu Fei took the receiver and scratched his face again and again, lost in thought for a while.

"Mr. Lu?"

Tao Yao waited for a long time before making a soft sound.

Lu Fei came back to his senses and listened to her report on the itinerary for this week. Ever since Feigou.com made a breakthrough on Double Eleven, there have been numerous inspections, interviews, meetings, and speeches.

But it’s worth the effort. The pilot projects of “Home Appliances Going to the Countryside” are located in southern Henan, eastern Shandong, and Sichuan. Logic and Shenzhou have been included in the list of cooperative manufacturers as they wished, and they also enjoy tax incentives and other policies.

As for Lianxiang, it is rare to lose the election.

The only computer manufacturer that "goes home appliances to the countryside" is Shenzhou.

It seems that Lianxiang is falling out of favor...

"Mr. Lu, you have an invitation to present an award the day after tomorrow."

Tao Yao reported: "The '2007 China Best Business Leader Award' held by Shanghai SMG Group, you are one of the nominees, and our President Liu has also been shortlisted for the nomination of the best CEO of the year in the eyes of the public. Listen to that Bian means, I very much hope that the two of you can come to the scene, and it is very likely that you will win an award."

Not possible, but certain!
Lu Fei smiled and said, "Did you ask who else is going?"

"There are your brother Continental President, Penguin's Lu Huateng, Yangtze River Storage's Zhu Yiming, Suntech Solar's Shi Zhengrong..."

Tao Yao counted them one by one, "Oh, and Ah Li's Lu Yun, it seems that he has also been shortlisted for an award."

"Um!!"

Lu Fei raised his eyebrows, and booked the ticket immediately, I want the flying dragon to ride the face.

………………

China Best Business Leader Award, started in 2005.

It is co-hosted by China Business News, a subsidiary of Shanghai Media Group, and CNBC, a world-renowned financial media, and the awards are presented at the Shanghai Science and Technology Museum.

In the traveling convoy, Liu Jundong and Lu Huateng were in one.

Lu Fei and Lu Yun, the two brothers took a car.

"Second, where are you going to celebrate the New Year this year?"

Lu Yun asked: "Domestic or foreign?"

"Probably on a business trip to New York."

Lu Fei is not purely out of selfishness. The key to getting together with Zeng Li's mother and daughter is that next year will be the most critical moment of the financial crisis.

Lu Yun stared at his younger brother's face, "That's fine, we can't have orphans and widowed mothers staying in the United States. Your sister-in-law also told me whether this year should be special and the whole family go abroad for the New Year."

"No, brother, I've already made up my mind. I'll take Zeng Li's younger sister's opportunity to study in the United States in the spring of next year, and invite her mother, and then we will have a showdown." Lu Fei clapped his hands.

"You have thought it all over, then you can figure it out yourself."

Lu Yun nodded, "But before we go, let's meet Yuanyuan and her family, you know?"

"Got it."

The two brothers chatted for a while, and the car drove to the destination.

The door was already surrounded by the media, and every one who got out of the car was immediately besieged by reporters and questioned.

When Zhou Hongyi was facing the camera, he was eloquently advertising his 360 security butler, a voice of "Lu Fei is here" suddenly appeared in the crowd, and the media immediately liked the new and hated the old, and rushed over in a swarm.

The number of reporters interviewed by the naked eye decreased, and finally he was left alone on the red carpet, and no one cared about him.

"Lu Fei."

Zhou Hongyi gritted his teeth and looked over.

Seeing that Lu Fei was surrounded by groups, even with bodyguards and security guards covering him, he couldn't advance much. Reporters asked questions everywhere:
"Mr. Lu, what do you think about Ahri's fake products?"

"What do you think of Ali's fake products? Does Feibu have similar problems?"

"........."

"Mr. Lu, how much are your clothes worth?"

Looking at the reporter with the Sohu brand hanging around his neck, Lu Fei narrowed his eyes into slits, this is definitely here to make trouble.

If the answer is too high, it will inevitably be misunderstood as showing off wealth.

If the answer is too low, it will be questioned as a hypocritical show.

The corner of his mouth curled up slightly, and he pulled off his suit:

"I bought it on Feigou."

In an instant, a burst of laughter broke out in the crowd.

Master Lu deserves to be the max eloquence, he not only answered humorously, but also launched a wave of advertisements for his own Feigou.com.

Maybe it won't be long before "Lu Fei's same style" will pop up after "Yang Mi's same style" and "Liu Shishi's same style".

Even if the richest man wears it, the sales will not take off!
Seeing that there was no bargain, a reporter from Sohu came out and said aggressively: "Mr. Lu, regarding the issue of counterfeit goods in e-commerce, Mr. Lu from Ari Baba said that counterfeit goods have existed since the birth of human beings. , from the beginning of human beings to the extinction of human beings, fake products will never be eliminated, because this is human nature, human nature hopes to be greedy, and human nature hopes to pick up cheap...

It is impossible for e-commerce to be free of fake products. What do you think? "

"Huh!"

As soon as these words came out, the audience listened attentively.

Because Luyun is quite a thieves and raised the problem of counterfeit products on a platform like Ahli Baba to the entire Chinese e-commerce market, and to the environment and system, and also dragged Feigou.com into the water. We do sell fake products, but Feigou Sell ​​more online.

Use peers as a foil to wash yourself.

Liu Yandong became angry in an instant, and smiled coldly:
"Feigo.com sells more? We will check to see if it is what Aribaba said. If it is true, we will definitely sue Aribaba for maliciously spreading rumors and defamation. I will see you in court then."

"If not, then we will sue your unit!"

The reporter was stared at and shrank his head.

"Cough cough."

Lu Fei cleared his throat, "It is true that e-commerce has always had such problems as counterfeit products and copyright infringement, but counterfeiting is not only online, but also offline. It's just that these contradictions and problems are more focused on e-commerce, which is a chronic social disease. But it’s not a stubborn disease, so it’s indifferent, Feigou.com has been cracking down on counterfeit goods like it’s cracking down on drunk driving over the years, resolutely and decisively, without any mercy.”

The more you talk, the more excited you become.

Counterfeit products must be suppressed at any time, and it is impossible not to suppress them!
Think about it, you spend a lot of money, come up with an idea, set up a brand and still earn money, and suddenly you make fakes for counterfeiters!
Therefore, the day without fakes is a good day!
"As long as Feigo.com is willing to make money, it can turn a blind eye and close one eye, and let a large number of merchants selling parallel and fake goods enter Feigou.com, but we will never, never be like Tao..."

"Some friendly merchants also cover up merchants to operate without a license, sell fake products, and even sell fake products as genuine products to deceive consumers. We are more willing to help those merchants without brands, to grow bigger and stronger bit by bit, Create your own brand."

"Who is this friend merchant, I will not name it."

Lu Fei smiled, "I advise him to take care of himself."

"Wow~"

All of a sudden there was thunderous applause.

The group of them walked into the hall of the Science and Technology Museum under the dazzling flashlight. Liu Yandong immediately lowered his face and said angrily:

"Mr. Lu, the reporter's press card just now said Yahoo. It is definitely Lu Yun who wants to use public opinion to drag us into trouble."

"What about Lu Yun and others?"

Lu Fei's eyes shone brightly.

But unexpectedly, among the more than 300 celebrities in the business world present, there was no shadow of Lu Yun, not even a high-level figure of Ari Baba.

After asking, I found out that Ah Li's papa was absent!

"Bah, I have the guts to slander, but I don't have the guts to do it. I, Liu Jundong, a good boy, have the same nomination as someone like Lu Yun."

There was contempt and shamelessness in Liu Yandong's words.

"Forget it, don't worry about it. At worst, when I see him later, let him sit at the children's table for dinner."

Lu Fei patted his shoulder.

Lu Yun didn't come, neither did Leader Sha, but unexpectedly, Zheng Han, the second in command, came to the scene and sat at the same table with Lu Fei and the others, even next to him.

"He went to Yanjing."

Zheng Han wears glasses, gentle, with a smile on his face all the time: "Please, I must present the award to you personally."

"My honor, Leader Zheng!"

Lu Fei shook hands with him, realizing that the leader Sha has gone up, and he will rely on this one in front of him in the Shanghai stock market from now on.

Fortunately, the relationship department is not bad.

After a while, the awards ceremony officially opened.

At the scene of the ceremony, the stars are shining brightly,
Candidates, judges, and award presenters gathered at the table.

There are a total of 6 awards. In addition to the most important "China Best Business Leader Award", there are also the Annual Corporate Citizen Award, the Annual Best Talent Management Award, the Annual Innovative Person Award, and two public voting awards— —

"CEO of the Year Award Selected by the CEO".

"The Best CEO of the Year Award in the Mind of the Public".

One before the other, they were awarded to Lu Huateng and Liu Yandong respectively.

And Zhu Yiming won the "Innovator of the Year Award" on behalf of YMTC. After all, the gold content of 3D flash memory technology is not too much to deserve the first prize of National Science and Technology Progress Award.

Products that have a backdoor with Micron, say "No, qnmd!"

Although the award was fair and just, the whole room was still in an uproar.

The final grand prize was even more unexpected, and within reason, it fell on Master Lu without any suspense.

The host on the stage said the award speech enthusiastically:

"He has the identity of an entrepreneur, a manager and a pioneer at the same time. At the same time, he is flourishing in IT, IC, finance and other fields. At the same time, he surpasses many contemporary Chinese entrepreneurs in terms of ideas, actions and contributions. , using Huaxia's technology and products to go global is a business card representing Huaxia entrepreneurs and a role model for all Huaxia entrepreneurs to learn from!"

"Hi~"

Including Zhou Hongyi, everyone present couldn't help taking a breath, and were shocked by the award speech full of appreciation.

Not ordinary entrepreneurs can have this comment.

Reminiscent of the fact that four of the six prizes were awarded by Master Lu's direct descendants, the spirits all smelled something intriguing.

There is no doubt that this is a weathervane.

After Liu Chuanzhi, another business godfather appeared.

The point is, he is only 25 years old!
Watching Lu Fei take over the trophy from Zheng Han, Lu Yun clapped his hands so hard that his palms were numb. A sense of pride welled up in his heart. He looked left and right, as if to say——

See, this is my second brother!

My second brother is invincible in the world!

　Thanks to Yuntang and Zhuiguang for their 100 starting coins.
