Reinventing the Millennium.

Chapter 803 Pushing (Two in One)

When the news of HSBC's $108 billion asset write-down reached Huaxia, many people had no idea about it, and the A-shares only fluctuated slightly before continuing to rise.

Some experts claim that this round of A shares will be an obvious bull market.

But the stock price of Lehman fell due to the shock of HSBC, which made the Internet lively.

Thanks to the high-profile shorting of Lehman by the richest man in the mainland, thanks to the fact that well-known investors update their short-selling income on Zhihu, and thanks to the lack of shame and disdain for innocence, when the short-selling fund enters the last month, the portal is also good, Zhihu Well, there are more topics about Lehman.

"Lehman's stock price didn't move, and even rose slightly. I guess Mr. Fang must have claimed that he didn't suffer any losses from shorting the fund this time? That's right, it's the truth."

"Unfortunately, there was no loss in short selling. Yike's market value really lost a lot. I'm afraid Lehman's short selling made money, right?"

"Eco chose the extremely competitive mobile phone market, which is a bad move."

"How can a mobile phone be so easy to do?"

"Is it true that a giant like Nokia doesn't exist?"

"Mr. Fang obviously wants to use a story about the mobile phone market to stabilize the confidence of the stock market. However, this story is difficult to realize. It seems that our richest man in the mainland must look for a newer and more imaginative future."

Xiong Xiaoge in Beijing is already on vacation, and he is still insisting on updating the profits of shorting Lehman, but he can see more and more similar yin and yang.

This may be a sentiment, or there may really be stakeholders like Huang Guangyu who short Yike with real money.

From a larger perspective, competitors from Sina, Tesco, and even Bingxin can be regarded as related interests. Regardless of whether they are facing foreign investment banks or not, they will only hope that the richest man in the mainland will be replaced by someone else.

Xiong Xiaoge is very aware of this matter, and he is able to let go of unnecessary emotions, but he also has a feeling for the phrase "mobile phones are not so easy to do" mentioned by many people.

This was verified by the other party when he contacted Mr. Fang.

Nothing is more convincing than the parties.

——"Old Xiong, of course it is difficult to make a mobile phone."

——"The new mobile phone system Android, the Open Mobile Phone Alliance led by Google, the selection of mobile phone chips, the cooperation of operators, the situation of competitors, the decision-making of scientific research investment, the management of supply chain..."

——"I won't be able to speak clearly on the phone for a while. Anyway, it's really difficult. I'll talk to you when I return to China when I have time."

Xiong Xiaoge, who insisted on updating short-selling profits, immediately realized one thing after chatting with Mr. Fang. Shorting Lehman is a trivial matter. The big problem is Mr. Fang’s poor mobile phone!

After thinking seriously for two nights, Xiong Xiaoge tried to give an investor's perspective.

He talked about Yike's first contradiction on Zhihu.

Xiong Xiaoge: Regardless of shorting Lehman, I think the quality of Yike’s mobile phone business is ten times more important than the result of shorting...

Then, the well-known investor was ridiculed by the crowd.

"What? Why leave out shorting Lehman?"

"The result will be out soon, Mr. Xiong, isn't it good for you?"

"Mr. Xiong started to avoid the important and ignore the minor. This is not a commendable behavior."

"Wouldn't this be ordered by Mr. Fang?"

From Xiong Xiaoge's point of view, he really feels the core and difficulty of the mobile phone project, but from the perspective of the people who eat melons and stakeholders, let's put aside whether the mobile phone is not a mobile phone, and it depends on who is shorting Lehman. Can have the last laugh.

Xiong Xiaoge fell silent helplessly.

The president of Gome Rhubarb, who was once banned by Zhihu, accidentally accepted an interview from the media at this time.

Gome and Tesco, Rhubarb and Xiaofang, the feud between them is already an open secret.

Rhubarb always doesn't mind talking about his opponents who have already benefited him from short selling: "Xiong Xiaoge wants to put aside short selling and not talk about it? How can we not talk about it? If we want to talk, we need to talk about it seriously."

"I think the Lehman-Eco share price battle can be declared."

"Experienced international investment banks such as Lehman and Bear Stearns have begun to enter the domestic market, while Yike, as a domestic enterprise, does not pay much attention to the domestic market."

"Lehman has maintained a growth rate, and Yike's growth rate has slowed down."

"Lehman focuses on its own business, and Yike develops in a gambling style."

"What's more, Lehman has already made a profit by shorting Yike, but Fang Zhuo has started to lose money by shorting Lehman."

Rhubarb always said three wins and three losses, thinking that there is little suspense.

And, by the way, he advertised his investment business cooperation with Bear Stearns: "Bear Stearns is a better investment bank than Lehman. Its strength complements our domestic vision. We welcome domestic excellent retail companies to cooperate We work together."

Gome and Bear Stearns have jointly made an investment in the retail industry. The two parties are in the honeymoon period. Gome has already invested a lot. This year it is Bear Stearns' turn to make efforts.

In this way, online and offline, friends and opponents, on the occasion of the Spring Festival, are all concerned about Mr. Fang's operation half a year ago.

Therefore, when there is less than one month left for short-selling funds, when HSBC brings Lehman's stock price down...

For a moment, the tumultuous public opinion seemed to suddenly quiet down.

At this time, the broad-minded Xiong Xiaoge appeared leisurely.

He once again wrote about the importance of Yike's mobile phone business.

This time, his first sentence was - "Now I can say, let's put aside the shorting of Lehman, shall we? No one objected? Well, I have to talk about the vital importance of Yike's mobile phone business, which It is very likely that it is not just Yike, but an extremely critical part of Mr. Fang's business map..."

No one objected!

But the comment area is extraordinarily excited!
Many people ask questions.

——Mr. Xiong, Mr. Xiong, do you think this represents a problem with Lehman itself, or is it affected by the US stock market?

——Mr. Xiong, not only Lehman, but also Goldman Sachs and Bear Stearns have fallen to varying degrees. Is it too early to judge now?

——Mr. Xiong, do you think Lehman's stock price will rebound in the next month?
Everyone generally feels that this is because Lehman was implicated by HSBC, and there is still a possibility of a rebound.

Xiong Xiaoge had a friendly interaction. He personally noticed the stock price of HSBC Bank early on, and believed that even if Lehman rebounded this time, the rebound time would not be short-term.

Well-known investors are back in high spirits.

Rhubarb always felt inexplicably unlucky.

Although his account has been blocked by Zhihu, he can still browse as a tourist. He also sees Xiong Xiaoge's posts and interactions, and he is nothing more than looking for Fang Zhuo.

Rhubarb is always a bit resentful, he doesn't think it will take a long time for Lehman to rebound.

Besides, the stock price of Lehman has fallen, but your Yike stock price has not risen, so you can still make money by doing it yourself!
Rhubarb has always found an emotional support point.

In the afternoon, Mr. Dahuang held a meeting as usual, and one of the key points was the investment cooperation with Bear Stearns.

The market competition of offline electrical appliance chains has entered the capital age. Due to the previous drag, Gome has been unable to catch up with Suning. Therefore, the investment integration of other domestic retailers is a new way, which can also boost its own stock price.

However, at night, President Da Huang suddenly received an urgent call from the person in charge of the investment.

"Mr. Huang, Mr. Huang, Bear Stearns suddenly became ambiguous!"

Rhubarb always frowned: "What is ambiguous?"

"It's Frank who was connected. He said that he will return to the United States to handle the headquarters for reporting and business processing, and Huaxia's business will be temporarily suspended."

Mr. Da Huang frowned even tighter: "Temporarily suspended? What does this mean? When will a new person in charge come over?"

"I don't know. Frank didn't say anything. I asked other people in Bear Stearns and said that the loss of HSBC's mortgage business has attracted everyone's attention, and the business line may face adjustments."

Mr. Rhubarb ended the call.

HSBC, HSBC, HSBC again!

HSBC, why can't you fight for it?

Da Huang always walked to the window and watched the night outside quietly. Will the temporary suspension become a complete termination?
What's going on in America?
If Bear Stearns can't continue to invest, how can Gome's retail integration continue?
Rhubarb's heart was full of clouds, he had a bad premonition, and he was in a very bad mood.

If something goes wrong this time, the fellow helpers introduced earlier may not be so quiet.

Rhubarb heaved a sigh of relief, and no longer had the energy to pay attention to other things.

His emotional support is running out.

Save it.

……

Fang Zhuo, who returned to China, did not know that so many people who cared about him had undergone emotional changes.

Although he arrived in Shencheng, he still misses Silicon Valley in his heart. The progress of the R&D center is largely out of his control, and it depends on how far those people can do it.

However, when Fang Zhuo adjusted his mentality and was about to do a year-old job in a domestic company, he unexpectedly received phone calls from the leaders of the China Securities Regulatory Commission and the Shanghai Stock Exchange.

2月7日，前阵子刚突破3000点并持续涨到3100点的A股在经过周末两天休市后忽然开盘便一路下跌，一个上午便失守3000点整点大关。

According to the leader, your boss, you accept the media interview as soon as you accept it. What kind of "technical adjustments" are you going to make?
These days, because of Lehman, the attention has been high. Suddenly there is a line in a specific background. Do you really think that others have not watched TV dramas?

Fang Zhuo firmly denied this, thinking that it had nothing to do with him, it was just a coincidence.

You have to label me a "technical adjustment" today, and I will be interviewed tomorrow and the day after tomorrow and encounter the stock market situation.
Besides, my "technical adjustment" is clearly talking about US stocks. Why are you panicking about A shares?
Fang Zhuo ended up paying homage to the leader who made complaints over the phone, promised not to talk nonsense, and ended the call to commit crimes.

how can that be possible?
There must be a mistake.

Fang Zhuo continued to attend company meetings normally at Hang Lung 23 and discussed the matter of increasing the R&D budget.

At noon, he went downstairs to have dinner with Su Wei. While eating, he chatted until the leader's phone call in the morning.

"Oh, this, the interview you received on the 4th, and on the 5th and 6th, many people were popularizing the source and background of your adjustment. Anyway, Zhihu is quite lively." Su Wei knew the situation, "The situation is In this way, it is not clear whether it has caused panic emotions."

Fang Zhuo: "..."

In fact, there is really little relationship between domestic and foreign countries at present. It is only [-] o'clock, and it is not until midnight when the cock crows.

He pondered for a long time, and said: "It's okay, Ping An will be listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange soon, and it will go back up soon."

Su Wei smiled and said, "Really? Then I want to earn some pocket money."

Fang Zhuo quickly stopped: "Farewell, don't get involved with this, or I don't know what is being buckled on me."

Su Wei was just joking, put down her chopsticks, and said, "The hotel for the Spring Festival is ready, this year will be a lively year."

Fang Zhuo nodded. Originally, he wanted his family to go to the United States to celebrate the New Year, so that he could easily follow the progress of the R&D center, but after thinking about it, it was the Chinese New Year, so he wanted to make his parents and uncle happy.

Therefore, this year, they simply planned to let the whole big family celebrate the new year in Shencheng.

And the same goes for the Su family.

Fang Zhuo actually didn't like this kind of atmosphere, but his parents must have liked it, so he did so.

Another day later, despite the cloudy technical adjustment, the A-share market still broke through 3000 points.

Fang Zhuo took the time to post a sentence on Zhihu related topics: Look, let me say that it has nothing to do with me.

Another day later, A shares fell below 3000 points for the second time.

Reports have already begun to appear in the media.

——"Fang Zhuo's Technical Adjustment Shockwave"

——"The richest man in the mainland is pessimistic about the stock market"

——"After HSBC and Lehman, the mainland A-shares turned out to be the next victim"

——"Technical adjustment is definitely not an unintentional word"

Well, Fang Zhuo didn't intend to talk about related topics at all.

Not only over-association, but also connecting companies that have nothing to do with it, let alone Lehman, so what can HSBC have to do with itself?How did you become a victim?HSBC themselves would not agree with such an argument!
On February 2th, there was only one week left before the Spring Festival, and there was already a festive atmosphere in China, while HSBC abroad was still brewing a thunderstorm-like impact.

On this day, Fang Zhuo received calls from Lao Xiong and Wang Wangxing from his friend.

Both of them talked about an issue - whether Friends.com should conduct another financing to continue to fight against Penguin's dating network.

Fang Zhuo did not give a clear response on the phone, but instead contacted Sina Wang Yan to inquire about the Weibo project and decided to fly to the capital before the holiday.

Today's Friends.com is at a big disadvantage in terms of the number of users. It can't come up with tactics to match Penguin's traffic, so it can only continue to use funds to fight.

It is possible to fight, but is there still a need to fight when Penguin attaches great importance to strategy?
Fang Zhuo decided to push forward.

Before flying to the capital, he asked Sina to release two signals.

First, Friends.com may be negotiating an acquisition with Facebook, which may join the competition in the Chinese market.

Second, Fang Zhuo believes that Youyou.com can rely on the current number of users to try to softwareize the Internet, that is, Youyou.com-style communication software.

As we all know, some of Sina's attitudes are Mr. Fang's attitudes.

Penguin, who received the signal accurately, immediately held a tense meeting to discuss the possible new opponent Fb.

And, is Fang Zhuo going crazy to attack Penguin's traffic base?
