Brilliant Years 1991

Chapter 53: Tit-for-tat but also solidarity and friendship
After the toast, Wang Tingfang turned around and waved to the girl who had accompanied her behind her. The girl immediately came over quickly and handed her a very exquisite business card holder.

She took out a gold-plated one, then continued to open the small purse handed over by the girl, took out a fountain pen, and glanced around, "Don't peek!" As she spoke, she quickly wrote what seemed to be a line of numbers and handed it to Cao Yukun, "Brother Kun, this is my secret phone number, don't tell anyone else!"

She pointed casually, including the three men next to her, "Especially them!"

Su Jianshan was the first to laugh out loud again, "Girls really like handsome guys!"

Cao Yukun subconsciously glanced at Jin Zhiqiang and saw a smile on his face. He immediately understood that this was probably the usual tactic used by Wang Tingfang, the owner of Dali Palace, to run his business.

So he took it with a smile, took a look at it, and then said with a smile: "I don't have a business card, or even a phone number, so I can't give it back! Mr. Jin knows me very well, he knows how to contact me."

Wang Tingfang immediately understood the subtext.

There was no sign of embarrassment on Jin Zhiqiang's face, but rather he looked very proud.

On the contrary, Su Jianshan and Sun Amin, who seemed to be quiet all the time, almost simultaneously raised their heads and glanced at Cao Yukun, with surprise in their eyes.

Wang Tingfang smiled, calmly pulled her hand out of Jin Zhiqiang's hand again, and said with a smile: "The bosses, enjoy your meal... Brother Su, Brother A Ming... Brother Kun, please come often to take care of our business in the future!"

Everyone agreed. She glanced at Cao Yukun with a sweet smile, then turned and left.

After the door was closed, everyone sat back down. Su Jianshan said with a smile, "Boss Jin, you should try harder. If you can't chew it anymore, how about I do it?"

Upon hearing this, Jin Zhiqiang's face immediately fell. He turned his head and glanced at Su Jianshan with a look of arrogance, "The beauty is right there. If President Su likes her, just go and give it a try! If you get slapped in the face, don't blame others for finishing you off!"

Su Jianshan laughed loudly and waved his hands repeatedly, "Fuck! It's just a joke. You're talking as if you want to fight with me. What's the matter, are you Wang Lun or am I Wang Lun?"

This statement can probably be considered as a sign of surrender.

Jin Zhiqiang tugged at his tie and sat down with his head held high.

Cao Yukun smiled and put away the business card, and as usual did not get involved.

In fact, even without now, Cao Yukun had already heard from their casual chat that these people were definitely not in the same group. They even kept arguing with each other. Among them, Su Jianshan seemed to be the worst. He was particularly disdainful of Jin Zhiqiang.

Now that he thought about it, when he was surprised by the grand display created by Jin Zhiqiang, his smile might not have been mocking himself for being inexperienced, but rather mocking Jin Zhiqiang for being pretentious.

Oh, that's interesting.

However, everyone can sit down together and tolerate each other, after all, they still have common interests.

After three rounds of drinks, Sun A Ming suddenly mentioned the Red Air people, "This wave of subscription certificates is just right! When it was on sale, let alone those Red Air speculators, even we were hesitant and didn't think much of this thing, let alone them? Only someone as bold as Mr. Kun would dare to gamble on 30,000 certificates! Although they came in later and bought some of them at a price of around 300 yuan per certificate, if they want to buy as much as last year, they can only accept high prices!"

"This is our chance! No matter what, the stock market in Shanghai is not up to these Hong Kong speculators to decide! No matter how strong the financial strength is, I'm sorry, you have to play by our rules!"

Jin Zhiqiang nodded, "Well said! Mr. Ming and I have the same idea! The current situation is that no one's words count in this market. The vast majority of subscription certificates are actually scattered among the people. Retail investors are the real big players! In the streets and alleys of the Magic City, speculators from all over the country who heard the news came here. These people hold at least 70% of the shares!"

"So, influence is very important! Everyone, today we meet to discuss with you. In the future, we must unite as one, exchange information, and share what we have! If we unite together, we can still get together 70,000 or 80,000 subscription certificates. For the retail investors below, the influence is not small!"

When it comes to this topic, Su Jianshan obviously becomes cautious and serious. "I have no problem. We should advance and retreat together!"

Cao Yukun laughed as his mind raced. "I don't understand what you guys are talking about! But, I only have a few subscription certificates in my hand. To be honest, the next No. 2 Textile Machinery is said to be very big. My accountant has already reminded me that if there are more big companies like No. 2 Textile Machinery, we will have no money to buy new shares... I really don't know how I can cooperate with you guys!"

As soon as he said this, the eyes of the other three people at the table lit up almost at the same time, but they quickly turned their eyes away subconsciously. Su Jianshan was the first to laugh, "Brother, you must know that stocks can be pledged for loans! It's just that the ratio is relatively low, and the loan is calculated at 20% of the stock price on that day. If you need it, I can introduce people from the bank to you! ICBC, HSBC, Standard Chartered, all do this business! As for the stock market, everyone is optimistic!"

Jin Zhiqiang glanced at him disdainfully and stared at him, "Do you want me to make a call right now and call the general manager of HSBC's office in Shanghai?"

Su Jianshan laughed, sat back and said nothing more.

………I don’t know if it was the fifth or seventh round of drinking, but the scene was always in this strange state of confrontation, solidarity and friendship - it was inexplicably refreshing and I didn’t want to miss a single word.

So I kept drinking water.

The waiter standing at the door was almost exclusively busy refilling Cao Yukun's tea.

Finally, he couldn't hold it any longer and got up to go to the bathroom.

The waiter came over to lead the way, but when he got to the restroom and just started peeing, someone suddenly stood beside him. He turned around and saw Su Jianshan. He said hurriedly, "Brother, let's talk later?"

Cao Yukun smiled and nodded, "Okay!"

So he was very satisfied, and subconsciously glanced at Cao Yukun, his expression changed, "Fuck!"

After shaking himself, he pulled up his trousers and went to wash his hands.

I held my urine for too long and too much. I felt lighter after I urinated. I washed my hands and returned to Box 1. I saw that Jin Zhiqiang and Su Jianshan seemed to be arguing with each other again. Sun Aming was laughing and making excuses. When he saw Cao Yukun coming back, Sun Aming quickly changed the topic to Cao Yukun. "Brother, you took so long to pee. Did you secretly make a phone call? You are too anxious, right?"

Damn it…Cao Yukun could immediately hear the viciousness in these words.

Sure enough, Jin Zhiqiang turned his head and looked at Cao Yukun. There seemed to be some fear in his eyes, but soon, he became calm again, and even said, "Mr. Kun is a decent man, he will definitely not do anything shady! If you want to pursue Ah Fang, it's easy! So what if you pursue him in front of me? As long as Ah Fang is willing, what can I object to? Why do you have to be so sneaky!"

"Grass!"

Su Jianshan immediately glared, stood up, and almost slammed the table, "I just need to pee urgently, so I'm going to the toilet to pee, why are you still talking nonsense?"

Jin Zhiqiang stood up without giving in, and said coldly, "You know where the hell you've been! We agreed to work together, so whoever makes trouble first, don't blame me for being rude!"

Uh... okay, it turns out that the big guys are like this too.

The legendary business war...

Su Jianshan snorted coldly, then suddenly stood up and left.

The dining table in the corner of the large private room had been removed at some point in time, and the so-called "guests" brought by the four people were already sitting on the sofa in groups of three or five. When they saw Su Jianshan stand up to leave, four or five people immediately stood up and followed him out the door.

"Mr. Su...Mr. Su..."

Sun A'ming shouted, unable to pull him away in time. He turned around and pressed his palm down towards Jin Zhiqiang, then waved at Cao Yukun and quickly chased after him.

As the two of them left, Jin Zhiqiang snorted coldly and turned to look at Cao Yukun, "Mr. Kun, please sit down!"

He still looked dignified and imposing.

Cao Yukun turned around and sat down.

He took another sip of wine and put down the glass. He seemed to have adjusted his mood completely. His arrogance was gone and his sincerity was increased. "Mr. Kun, have you heard of Mr. Wu Junyu's book?"

This is a new topic, "Oh, I haven't heard of it."

"Well said, especially Water Margin, it's absolutely amazing! You came to Shanghai to listen to Mr. Jun Yu's book! It just so happens that the old gentleman is at the Red Star Bookstore recently, and he is talking about Water Margin. The book starts at 3 pm every day!"

He smiled, with a rare sincere look on his face, and even came closer, pretending to be intimate, "Are you free tomorrow afternoon? I would like to invite you to listen to a book, Mr. Kun?"

"Okay! Thank you, Mr. Jin!"
