Chapter 234: Tesla

【December 12, Tesla, $11】

As the early morning bell rang, Lu Liang fell silent. If he remembered correctly, Tesla's stock price was only $368 the day before yesterday.

Today is September 9th. In less than three months, or only 12 trading days at most, the market value of more than 66 billion US dollars has more than doubled.

He seems to have ignored Tesla for too long. The catfish that was selected by the country and supported by the Shanghai Municipal Government and put into the fish pond is actually the real hidden big boss.

Based on this information, it is reasonable to infer that the Model 3 released by Tesla today may be comparable to the legendary car like the Mercedes-Benz back then.

"Mr. Lu, what's wrong with you?"

Wang Chuting was thoughtful and keenly aware of Lu Liang's emotional changes, and stopped her ambiguous actions.

After all, half of her body was on Lu Liang, and her weight of 120 pounds was definitely not light, so she thought it was making him uncomfortable.

"nothing."

Lu Liang pondered for a moment, then stood up and dressed: "Let me know when you arrive in the capital tomorrow. I will recommend you to Lao Luo after I finish my work."

Although he has never met Russell Sr. and has brought Hammer to the brink of bankruptcy, he is Russell Sr.'s creditor.

Even if Lao Luo is unhappy, he still has to give him some face.

Wang Chuting suddenly looked flustered, thinking that she had done something wrong: "It's so late, do you still want to go back?"

"I suddenly thought of something and need to go to the company."

Lu Liang raised the corner of his mouth, reached out and stroked the semicircular sphere, reassuring Wang Chuting that it had nothing to do with her, but he didn't say much.

This caused Wang Chuting to grumble and then secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

Lu Liang walked out of the bedroom and made two phone calls, one to Fang Shiyu and one to Wen Chao.

Ask the former to drive to the community to pick him up, and ask the latter to contact Sun Yutao and Zhang Jing, and go to the company to wait for notification.

Half an hour later, Fang Shiyu drove over in a hurry. When he came back, he was promoted.

As the deputy captain of security, security work will be taken care of by other people in the future, and he only needs to concentrate on driving.

"Haven't you rested yet?" Lu Liang glanced at the rearview mirror and saw a black business Mercedes-Benz following closely behind him.

There are usually four security personnel on board the business vehicle. The security team consists of 12 people in total, working in three shifts.

Fang Shiyu smiled innocently: "Just getting ready to take a break."

Lu Liang looked at the night view outside the window and suddenly asked, "How was the conversation with that girl?"

"Brother, which... girl are you talking about?" Fang Shiyu looked embarrassed and suddenly stuttered.

"The one on the Internet." Lu Liang said unhappily.

Nowadays, the development of Internet communication technology has provided countless young men and women with a new channel for making friends.

When he first entered society, he also had an online romance, so he could naturally understand why Fang Shiyu was grinning foolishly while holding his phone.

It’s just that Lu Liang’s online love was not particularly pleasant. Although the girl was indeed a woman, not a shemale, she was still just a woman.

Fortunately, when they met offline, he was careful and asked Liu Mingxuan to call him three minutes later no matter what.

If they found someone good-looking, they would hang up Liu Mingxuan's phone. If they found someone bad-looking, they would just say they had something urgent to do and had to leave.

"It's okay." Fang Shiyu responded in a muffled voice.

"How long have you been talking?"

"More than three months."

"How far have we come?"

"What step?"

“Text, voice, or video?”

"Word."

"..."

Lu Liang was speechless and asked again: "How much did it cost?"

"No… not much."

"How did you know him?"

"Mo Mo."

"..." Lu Liang knew that it must have taken a lot of time, so he could only kindly remind her: "Since you have known each other for such a long time, it's about time for you to get closer."

He and Liu Mingxuan jokingly called Momo the concubine selection menu. Just open it before going out to play and choose the top technician you like.

A serious girl will rarely appear on it.

Fang Shiyu hummed and parked the car at the main entrance of the building: "Brother, you go in, I'll go park the car."

Lu Liang nodded and did not persuade him.

People teach people, but they can’t teach. Things teach people, and they can learn it once.

Every man has to go through love once. If he gets cheated, just consider it as paying tuition.

The younger you are when you are cheated, the better. At least you won’t make much money, the cost you pay is limited, but the rewards you get will benefit you for life.

Even if she is tortured to death by love, she still has him as her brother, who will definitely not stand by and watch her die.

At one o'clock in the morning, the building was brightly lit.

Shanghai is a financial city, and Lujiazui is a financial district. There are many cross-border enterprises in this building.

There are people on duty 24 hours a day, and there are also people going on and off duty.

Lu Liang took the elevator to the company on the 32nd floor, where Wen Chao, Sun Yutao, Zhang Jing and others had been waiting for a long time.

They were called over in the early hours of the morning, and as expected, they were going to serve the international market. Zhang Jing informed them that eight people were on duty tonight.

If you are short of manpower, you can call for more now.

"No need." Lu Liang shook his head.

Several people passed through the security gate and went to the trading room.

Lu Liang glanced at Tesla's stock price, which was $375. Because of the release of the new car today, it rose slightly by 2.42%.

The increase was very limited. Apparently the market has not yet reacted and thinks today is just an ordinary press conference.

Lu Liang looked at the Dow Jones Index. After a week of sideways adjustment, it gradually recovered its lost ground and hit 20,000 points again.

The blue-chip stocks that were bought at the bottom at that time rebounded and outperformed the market, with individual stocks increasing by an average of 8%-12%.

Lu Liang pondered for a moment, turned his head and looked at Wen Chao, asking him to pull up all the asset details. The three funds initially totaled US$61 billion, which has now become US$73.15 billion.

Shorting the Dow, shorting and longing, the profit so far exceeds 11 billion US dollars, and the current available RMB 12.37 billion and USD 15.68 billion in the account.
Lu Liang thought for a long time and looked at Tesla, which has a current market value of only $421 billion. They hold shares worth $7.57 million, accounting for about 1.8% of the market's outstanding shares.

It is already approaching the top ten in circulation stocks. If more capital investment is to be made, it will definitely appear on the big list.

As long as it appears on the list of circulating stocks, it is almost exposed to the eyes of Wall Street institutions.

However, Lu Liang was unwilling to give up the temptation of doubling his money in three months.

Tesla's market cap is large enough to accommodate so much of their funds.

Lu Liang thought for a long time, and suddenly an idea came to his mind.

If he came secretly, he might be targeted, so he came in openly and with a grand force.

If anything happens to his funds, it will be a loud slap in the face to the U.S. stock market, which claims to be free.

It will definitely affect the companies in which we hold shares.

"Buy a large amount of Tesla shares, as long as it accounts for 5% of the market's outstanding shares, and immediately issue a notice of holding the stock."

The solution Lu Liang thought of was to increase capital investment until the 5% shareholding threshold was triggered.

This is the first company in which he has raised his stake. When the news comes out, Tesla’s stock price will definitely rise sharply.

When it comes to China, Tesla's reputation will become even more famous. After all, if even he is holding a sign for a company, there is no reason not to buy it.

But for the new domestic car-making forces, this will definitely make the already poor families even worse off.

In his heart, Lu Liang himself was actually unwilling to boost Tesla's prestige, but if he wanted to make money, he had to pay.

Tesla may become a competitor in the future, but for now Tesla is a tool that can help him make money.

These two points are not contradictory, and a rational investor should not be swayed by emotions.

Although there are many advantages to holding a placard, the only disadvantage is that the shares will be locked for six months.

Lu Liang decided to take a gamble, and in the following three months, Tesla’s stock price continued to rise.

After all, the first phase of Shanghai’s super factory will be completed next year, and production capacity will increase significantly. Even if we don’t ask for a much increase, at least it won’t fall too much.
