Chapter 196 196 [Save Me]

Friday, October 5

The stock market has been booming since its opening. The share price of Cheung Kong Holdings alone has risen by 0.3 yuan per share to 4.7 yuan. The share prices of other companies have also risen significantly.

Li Wendi looked at the stock prices that were constantly being modified on the blackboard without much joy on his face. He was considering whether to sell the stocks. Although he only owned a small amount of shares in each company and it would only take a few hours to sell them out, the stock market could collapse at any time, and there was no trajectory to refer to.

He remembered that during the same period in his previous life, the stock market collapsed due to large investors selling stocks. He could not remember the exact date, but the stock market recovery definitely did not exceed two weeks. Now the stock market has been recovering for 10 days, plus Saturday and Sunday, so next Monday seems to be the deadline.

Soon, he remembered the principle of 'not making the last penny' and made up his mind to sell the stocks today. He called Wu Xiong and told him, "Mr. Wu, help me clear all the stocks. As usual, don't alert the market."

Wu Xiong was a little shocked. The stock market had only recovered for 10 days and there was just a glimmer of hope. Why was it selling off now?

"Mr. Li, the stock price will continue to rise. Do we really have to sell all of our shares and not leave a single share?" Wu Xiong asked again.

Li Wendi nodded and said, "Don't keep any shares! Mr. Wu, don't be nostalgic about stock trading. I told you the reason at the beginning."

Wu Xiong recalled Li Wendi’s previous analysis. This time the stock market recovery would not last too long, but it wouldn’t be so short, right?
Li Wendi’s stock market incident kept turning over in his mind. Wu Xiong also had some stocks on hand and was struggling between selling them or not.

However, he still had to arrange the sale of Li Wendi's stocks first. As for his own stocks, he would think about it for a while.

Li Wendi also called Zhang Wentao and Zhang Yan and asked them to sell all their stocks today, otherwise they would face a stock market collapse and heavy losses.

As for Chen Xingzhou, Li Wendi simply told Chen Xingzhou that he would start selling stocks today and try to finish selling before the market closes. As for whether Chen Xingzhou should follow suit, that was something Chen Xingzhou needed to decide.

As soon as Chen Xingzhou put down the phone, he said to Chen Jinxi, "Li Wendi started selling stocks today and asked us if we want to follow suit."

Chen Jinxi was also confused by Li Wendi's actions. The current stock market has great hope of recovering the prosperity of the stock market in February and March. Li Wendi has always been bold and likes to take unconventional actions. Why is he so timid now? He sold his stocks after only one week of growth.

"Could this be a smokescreen thrown by Li Wendi? He doesn't want us to make too much profit in the stock market." Chen Xingzhou made a very unkind guess, forgetting that this was one of their requirements for selling the stock in the first place, otherwise Li Wendi would not bother to be such a goody-goody.

Chen Jinxi shook her head and said, "Li Wendi's character is not very good, but he has one good point, which is that he keeps his promises. This is what we mentioned to him at the beginning."

"You mean Li Wendi didn't lie to us?" Chen Xingzhou also remembered making such a request, but he was still optimistic about the current stock market. If it could return to its glory days at the beginning of the year, he could make at least more than 10 million. The temptation was too great and it was difficult to refuse.

"Go check whether Li Wendi has started selling. If so, we will follow suit. If not, we will keep a close eye on Li Wendi's actions in the future." Chen Jinxi still believed in Li Wendi's judgment.

Chen Xingzhou nodded. In fact, he also knew that the probability of Li Wendi lying was very low, but he did not want to give up the current booming stock market. Perhaps it was Li Wendi's misjudgment.

Just like in the previous life, on Monday, May 5, the stock market was normal in the first hour after opening, but after 22 o'clock, big investors began to sell stocks. The company's stock price could still hold up for a while at first, and until the market closed at 11 o'clock, the stock price still did not fall.

However, the stock investors in the exchange are like ants on a hot pan, jumping up and down anxiously. Sometimes they believe that the stock market will continue to perform well, and sometimes they worry that the stock market will not be able to hold up and experience a big crash like the one in March. The root cause is greed and the hope to make more money.

But in the end, fear triumphed over greed, and when the market opened at 1 p.m., investors flocked to the exchange, waving their stock certificates and asking traders to help them sell their stocks.

As a result, the stock market repeated the scene in March, and the share prices of all companies began to fall, but the extent of the decline varied.

Seeing this, Wu Xiong couldn't help but drool. Fortunately, he believed in Li Wendi and sold all his shares last Friday. The return rate was a little lower, only about 15%, but compared with the current situation, it was undoubtedly lucky. "In the future, I'd better follow Mr. Li's footsteps. The situation in the stock market is really changing rapidly. If you are not careful, you will suffer heavy losses." Wu Xiong sighed as he looked at the crowded crowd.

The share prices of Changxin Real Estate Company and Zhongyu Real Estate Company under Li Wendi could not resist the general trend of the stock market and fell by 0.5 yuan in just one hour, which was shocking.

Li Wendi laughed. "How much profit did Changxin Real Estate Company make from this 'buy low and sell high'?"

"We bought at a low enough price, with a rate of return of about 20% and a profit of nearly 80 yuan," Zhang Wentao reported. He was dumbfounded by his boss's ability to manipulate the stock market and his excellent grasp of timing.

"When the share price of Zhongyu Real Estate Company drops to the subscription price, you organize the stock absorption and strive to increase the shareholding to 60%." Li Wendi gave the order to Zhang Wentao. In fact, he also planned to take the opportunity to acquire one or two listed companies. Of course, it would be a personal acquisition. After all, Changxin Real Estate Company did not have much reserve funds, and Zhongyu Real Estate Company's funds had to be used to acquire properties and land.

The next morning, the newly-published newspapers would naturally publish news on the stock market.

The Sing Tao Daily used the metaphor of "buying at a low point" in the early stage of the stock market crash but being "trapped" now as "hairy crabs" and divided the "hairy crabs" into four levels to describe the current situation of investors.

Investors were crying and unable to cry as they watched they were unable to sell their stocks. They had been cheated twice and some of them were already planning to jump off the building again.

Qi Nian Newspaper
He Yongguan sat opposite He Qijun, his eyes avoiding, as if he was struggling with something he was embarrassed to say.

"Brother, just say whatever you want to say. I have a lot of official business on hand and don't have the energy to guess what you mean." He Qijun looked up at He Yongguan and buried his head in dealing with official business again.

"Li Wendi is so mean that he actually threw all the affairs of the Qinian Newspaper to you, while he just sat there and divided the money without having to put in any effort at all." He Yongguan directly made fun of Li Wendi, making it difficult for people to see his purpose.

"When the Qinian Newspaper was first established, we had already assigned the tasks. This is my choice. What does it have to do with Wendi?" He Qijun pursed her lips, guessing that her brother must have gotten into quite a bit of trouble, otherwise he wouldn't have used Li Wendi to 'comfort' her.

"If you have anything to say, just tell me. I'll help if I can. If I can't, go find grandpa." He Qijun said bluntly.

He Yongguan was still hesitant, "You know, the stock market has crashed again, I..."

"Are you speculating in stocks again? How much money did you lose this time?" He Qijun frowned and asked quickly.

He Yongguan mustered up his courage and said, "Not much! Just 100 million!"

"." He Qijun was so angry that her breathing became heavier. "Only 100 million?! Do you have the money to pay it? And you said 'only', is 100 million a small amount?"

"Gulp!" He Yongguan rolled his throat and said weakly, "Isn't Li Wendi quite rich? One million is nothing to him. As long as you ask him for it, Li Wendi will not refuse."

"What?!" He Qijun stared at He Yongguan with wide eyes, as if she didn't believe her brother could say such a thing. "Are you trying to sell me to Li Wendi? Or is Li Wendi your ATM?"

Faced with He Qijun's roar, He Yongguan didn't dare to say anything or quibble anymore. Instead, he turned into a quail and almost curled up into a ball.

The pen in He Qijun's hand slipped off the table, the two lumps of flesh on her chest rose and fell, and she slumped in the chair, her eyes a little unfocused. She really couldn't understand why her family couldn't be more motivated and let her be a little arrogant in front of Li Wendi.

"Go find grandpa. I can't help you." He Qijun closed her eyes and said with a dead heart, "You haven't paid off the money you owed last time. I can't ask Li Wendi for help again."

"Ajun, please help your brother!" He Yongguan became anxious and walked to He Qijun's side. He leaned over to look at He Qijun, his face full of pleading. "If grandpa knew about this, I would be dead. Not to mention that I would be punished by the family law, I might even be kicked out of the house. Can you bear to watch me get kicked out?"
