Reborn since 1993

Chapter 1235 Shuffle
It was already November 1998, which was only about a month before the launch of Shenzhou Global Pass.

The timeframe is extremely tight. The phone needs to be finalized, trial production completed, a launch event held, and promotional activities to begin.

Just like when Dongling Hi-Tech launched new products before, when it was time to launch Shenzhou Global Pass, the entire Dongling Hi-Tech was like a sophisticated war machine, with all departments starting to operate.

The impact extends beyond Dongling Hi-Tech's various departments; the entire Dongling Hi-Tech parts supply chain, as well as related distributors and advertising companies, are also affected.

Like other products from Dongling High-Tech, Shenzhou Global Connect's components are basically more than 85% domestically produced, supplied by Dongling High-Tech's component supply chain companies such as Dongxin Semiconductor, Dongfang Optoelectronics, Hanxi New Materials, BYD, Jinyang Electronics, and Chuanrong Shares.

When Dongling High-Tech's logistics department began requiring these suppliers to provide new, compliant parts for the new models, and also asked them to prepare to increase production capacity.

These component suppliers immediately realized that Dongling Hi-Tech might be planning something big again.

To be honest, the sudden news left Dongling Hi-Tech's component supply chain suppliers somewhat puzzled. They wondered what kind of tricks Dongling Hi-Tech was up to at the end of the year.

However, these suppliers dare not slack off in the face of Dongling Hi-Tech's requirements. These suppliers are now part of Dongling Hi-Tech's industrial chain system and have Dongling Hi-Tech concept stocks on their heads. Many external companies are scrambling to get in.

Believe it or not, if they say they're unwilling to do it, there are plenty of companies that are willing to do it!
They're even willing to pay out of their own pockets just to pass Dongling High-Tech's supply chain system audit.

Once we can squeeze in, all the previous worries will disappear, leaving only one remaining worry: how to complete the order according to Dongling High-Tech's product standards?
Because Dongling Hi-Tech has so many orders, these component suppliers are expanding production, adding production lines and staff every year, but they just can't finish them all!

Not only are there many orders, but settlements are also never delayed. Which parts supplier wouldn't want to be associated with such a big spender?

Even more importantly, simply becoming a component supplier for Dongling Hi-Tech could give you the opportunity to become a Dongling Hi-Tech concept stock in the A-share market!

This is not just empty talk. Look at the A-share market now, there are nearly eight or nine former Dongling High-Tech component suppliers that have now completed their listings.

These concept stocks have seen their prices soar year after year. For example, the founder of Dongling High-Tech and Chuanrong Co., Ltd. even once became the richest man in Sichuan!

Now, as Dongling Hi-Tech shows signs of making big moves again, Dongling Hi-Tech concept stocks on the A-share market have surged once more!

……

"Stocks related to Dongling High-Tech are once again surging to their daily limit!"

"Chuanrong Co., Ltd. has hit the daily limit up!"

"Kelian Technology and Changshan Precision Machinery are also hitting their daily limit!"

"Are you crazy? Could it be that Dongling High-Tech has received another huge order?!"

Inside the main hall of the Sichuan First Stock Exchange, Xu Jiangwei, a seasoned private stock analyst and commentator, put down his newspaper and looked at the large screen upon hearing the commotion in the trading hall.

However, unlike before when Xu Jiangwei would get furious when he heard about the soaring stock prices of Dongling High-Tech, this time Xu Jiangwei appeared very calm.

Xu Jiangwei's composure was due to nothing other than the fact that he had previously regarded Dongling High-Tech concept stocks as speculative stocks and had made several predictions about stocks such as Chuanrong Electronics, but all of them ended in failure. He then chose to buy Changhong's stock instead.

As a result, Changhong's stock price plummeted without ever rebounding, and rumors even circulated that Changhong's chairman, Mr. Ni, might step down due to performance issues.

This further exacerbated the already dire situation for Changhong's stock price. On the contrary, Dongling High-Tech, a concept stock in the A-share market, has seen its stock price soar continuously, having weathered last year's Southeast Asian financial crisis and spanning more than half of this year.

After his mental state collapsed, Xu Jiangwei finally chose to give up. As the saying goes, "The moment you think of surrendering to the enemy, the world opens up for you!"

After his previous experience and data analysis proved ineffective, Xu Jiangwei finally chose Dongling High-Tech, a concept stock that he had previously looked down upon, as a speculative stock.

At the time, Xu Jiangwei's idea was to buy speculative stocks, lose all the money in his account, and then withdraw from the stock market.

As for now, Xu Jiangwei looked at the large screen in the trading hall, searching for the stock code of Jinyang Electronics among a sea of ​​red stocks.

"70 yuan!"

As expected, Jinyang Electronics also hit its daily limit, with a large buy order of 20,000 lots worth 140 million yuan at a price of 70 yuan, firmly locking it at the limit.

This is Xu Jiangwei's current stock trading life. Every day, he sits in the trading hall, watching Jinyang Electronics rise steadily, without needing to look at any data analysis or watch the expert analysis on the financial channel.

Once you arrive at the trading hall, just wait for the stock price of Jinyang Electronics to rise on its own. When Xu Jiangwei bought in, the stock price of Jinyang Electronics was 48 yuan, and now it has reached 70 yuan.

The performance can only be described as "mediocre". In more than half a year, Jinyang Electronics has only increased by nearly 50%, which is not even doubled. By the way, in the meantime, Jinyang Electronics, like other A-share stocks related to Dongling Gaoke, also distributed a mid-year dividend of 12 yuan per 10 shares. Well, that's just mediocre, and it only "set" a new record in the A-share market.

Jinyang Electronics distributed 90 million RMB in dividends at mid-year, with 1.2 RMB per 10 shares, equivalent to 1.2 RMB per share. Although the total dividend amount was less than that of companies like Changhong and Shenzhen Development Bank, it was still lower than that of the previous companies.

Jinyang Electronics, however, set a record for the highest single-share dividend in the A-share market, and it was after the ex-rights adjustment!
Seeing Jinyang Electronics' stock price hit the daily limit, and the rumors circulating in the trading hall about Dongling High-Tech concept stocks suddenly hitting the daily limit, Xu Jiangwei couldn't help but speculate.

The large-scale purchases of Dongling Hi-Tech concept stocks at present are clearly made by various institutions and major clients, with purchases often amounting to tens or hundreds of millions of yuan, which is simply beyond the reach of small retail investors.

Institutional investors, known for their keen sense of smell, are clearly aware that their large-scale purchases of Dongling High-Tech concept stocks indicate they have heard some rumors.

"Could it be that Dongling High-Tech has a new product?"

Xu Jiangwei thought about it again and again, but he couldn't help but think that Dongling High-Tech's products were selling like hotcakes this year, and everyone knew that.

However, the production capacity of Feiyan MP3 players, Shenzhou computers, and Founder computers has gradually caught up. Those institutions have already hyped it up once, and they won't hype it up again in the short term. At least let the retail investors catch their breath. This puzzled Xu Jiangwei.

"News reports say that Dongling High-Tech is going to build an automobile production base and start manufacturing cars!"

Someone shouted in the trading hall, and immediately the rumor that Dongling High-Tech was going to enter the automotive industry was discussed.

Many retail investors, upon hearing this rumor, sighed and their desire to chase after Dongling High-Tech concept stocks immediately faded.

"What is Dongling High-Tech up to? Why not just sell computers and instead make cars?"

"Exactly, can it outsell Santana, Volkswagen, Audi, and BMW?"

"The automotive industry is dominated by foreign brands. Can domestically produced cars really be relied upon?"

Dongling Hi-Tech's ambition to enter the automotive industry is seen as a negative rather than a positive sign by retail investors in the trading hall.

What is a car? It is a direct reflection of a country's industrial level and represents the highest level of industrial technology in a country. The car engine is the crown jewel of industry!
Its most direct impact is that it can become a pillar industry of a city or even a country. Once developed, an automotive industry chain, from car design to parts production, assembly and acquisition, can easily provide millions of jobs for middle-class families in a country!
Currently, most people in China are pessimistic about domestically produced cars, believing that it will be difficult for them to recover in the short term, at least for half a century.

Influenced by the influx of information from abroad, people in China now lack a clear understanding of the entire inland region. They are unaware that the country they live in is the only one in the world with a complete industrialization of both light and heavy industries, the largest number of young people in the world, and the most extensive education system.

In the eyes of countless people, domestic technology is simply inferior to that of foreign technology. Even with the emergence of companies like Dongling High-Tech, Chrysanthemum Factory, and Haier, they are still considered to be just exceptions.

When it comes to high-tech products like automobiles, even if Dongling High-Tech wants to get involved, there are very few people who are optimistic about it.

Many people in the trading hall attributed the surge in Dongling High-Tech concept stocks to the company's plan to establish an automobile production base, suggesting it might be entering the car manufacturing industry.

However, Xu Jiangwei had some doubts about this. Those institutions were known for their keen sense of smell. Even retail investors could see that Dongling High-Tech's car manufacturing was risky. How could investment institutions not see it?

Knowing there are risks involved, are these institutions still scrambling to buy Dongling Hi-Tech concept stocks? Is that reasonable?
For some reason, Xu Jiangwei had a feeling that there was a conspiracy theory at play; it seemed as if the news of Dongling High-Tech making cars had been deliberately leaked.

"Teacher Xu, aren't you going to sell your shares in Jinyang Electronics?"

"If Dongling High-Tech can't sell its cars when it starts manufacturing them, all these shares will be stuck in our hands!"

"Yes, it's best to secure your profits. People are never satisfied; there's no end to stock trading. It's always better to take your profits and be safe!"

The group of people sitting with Xu Jiangwei, upon seeing the news about Dongling High-Tech manufacturing cars, were all preparing to sell their Dongling High-Tech concept stocks and cash out while the market was at its peak.

"Don't you guys think there's something fishy about this news? The founder of Dongling High-Tech has been talking about building cars for more than just a day or two, so why is it suddenly being hyped up?"

Xu Jiangwei looked at the Dongling High-Tech concept stock, which was still bright red and firmly locked at the daily limit on the large screen hanging in the trading hall, and said.

"What could be suspicious about it?"

“Those big institutions dare to bet on Dongling High-Tech’s success in building cars because the money doesn’t belong to those analysts. Even if they lose, they don’t have to pay out of their own pockets. Of course they dare to bet. We’re just a small business; how can we afford to lose?”

"Yeah, Lao Xu, you used to be skeptical of stocks like Dongling High-Tech, but now you're reluctant to give them up?"
