Brilliant Years 1991

Chapter 57: President Kun is truly a man of great courage!

"Boss Kun!"

"Boss Jin! ...This is Miss Hu."

I originally thought that a storytelling venue like this would be difficult to find, but after having a delicious meal, I hailed a taxi on the street, and the driver immediately understood when he heard the Red Star Storytelling Hall.

While chatting on the road, I learned that the Red Star Bookstore is one of the most famous bookstores in Shanghai. The driver even knew that Mr. Wu Junyu was currently lecturing on "Water Margin", but he lamented that he didn't have time to go and listen.

As soon as I got off the car, Jin Zhiqiang's people were already waiting outside the door. They greeted me when they saw me, then took me upstairs and led me to the door of one of the private rooms, then knocked on the door.

"Oh... hello, Miss Hu!"

Seeing that Cao Yukun had brought a female companion with him, Jin Zhiqiang, who opened the door, frowned slightly, but immediately relaxed again. While letting the guest in, he smiled and asked, "Have you read the newspaper? Are you satisfied?"

I am satisfied with you, uncle!

"Haha, Mr. Jin is so generous!"

"Small thing!"

After entering the private room, I found that this was the second floor of the bookstore.

The viewing angle is very positive.

The book hadn't started yet, but the scattered seats on the first floor were already occupied by many listeners, and waiters were running back and forth serving tea, snacks and towels.

Jin Zhiqiang poured two cups of tea himself, then called the waiter in and asked for another set of cups.

When Hu Zihong saw that someone poured her a cup of tea and she thanked him, she suddenly became obedient and ran to the railing, lay down there, and looked down with great interest.

Jin Zhiqiang glanced at her from behind and saw that she didn't seem to have any intention of coming back for the time being. He was unexpectedly disdainful, but overall, she looked very satisfied. He said to Cao Yukun, "I'll send someone to give Mr. Kun a set of tickets later. You can bring your friends here often in the future."

"Oh, haha, thank you very much!"

He didn't think there was anything wrong with belittling himself, and he would insult himself whenever the topic arose, "Most of my friends are like me, country folk who haven't seen much of the world. Please forgive me, Mr. Jin!"

Jin Zhiqiang laughed, suddenly turned his head and looked over, lowering his voice, "Did Su Jianshan contact you?"

"Huh? No!"

"Really not?"

"Really not!"

"Hehe, Mr. Su Jianshan...you have to be careful! He's a wolf from the north!"

"Haha, I think Mr. Su is a nice guy! He's from the north, so he's more straightforward. Mr. Jin, you're a big businessman, don't bother with him about these little things. Your cooperation is more important!"

Jin Zhiqiang snorted coldly and stopped talking for a long time.

Then, he added, "Shanghai has never been peaceful! When the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom surrounded Shanghai, it was so dangerous. There was also Hu Xueyan who shorted and hoarded goods! When our party first arrived in Shanghai, it was a great reputation gained through fighting. There were still countless merchants who hoarded goods. At that time, my grandfather and other patriotic merchants of that generation cooperated with Director Chen, transported goods from thousands of miles away and smashed the market in one day, causing countless profiteers to lose their fortunes overnight!"

tsk...

This topic is really hard to follow.

The history of their ancestors was indeed glorious and irrefutable, so they could only sigh and say, "Yes!"

"Now...it's our turn, Mr. Kun!"

Cao Yukun quickly waved his hand, "It's your turn, President Jin!"

Jin Zhiqiang smiled reservedly but not reservedly, with a look of pride and contempt for the world, "It's still unknown who will win, so let's just work hard."

"Yes." He took a sip of tea from the teacup, and then put it down. Jin Zhiqiang suddenly said, "I heard from Mr. Kun last night that there are some problems with funds. Do you want me to host you tonight and introduce you to some friends in the banking industry?"

Cao Yukun had a smile on his face, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

In his two lifetimes, he actually hadn't seen many real big businessmen or big shots. At most, he had seen some acting in movies and TV dramas. He wasn't sure what the real big shots looked like. But, he really couldn't accept Jin Zhiqiang, a rich man... he didn't know how many generations he had been rich, and he couldn't accept his nagging.

Not smooth, not direct, not courageous!
I don't have the courage of a gangster to go straight to the point!
Although his own strength until now is probably not worth mentioning in front of others, it does not hinder him at all. In fact, Cao Yukun does not think highly of him!

He was the one who negotiated the deal - you ask me!

Ask me if I will sell it or not? How much will it cost?
You ask!

Damn it, this is already the second time we meet, and I've had countless opportunities to open my mouth, but it's still like this!

Unbearable!

The problem is, these words have clearly already come to my mind!

Then I'll just come straight to the point, "Boss Jin wants my 30,000 subscription certificates?"

Jin Zhiqiang was stunned for a moment, and a flash of embarrassment flashed across his face, but he quickly adjusted himself and looked at Cao Yukun seriously, "Mr. Kun... speak quickly!"

Cao Yukun waved his hand, "I bought it for thirty yuan, so I won't lose money no matter how I sell it! But I can't sell it at a low price!" He grabbed a handful of melon seeds and started to crack them, "Mr. Jin, give me an offer!"

"So refreshing?"

"if not?"

Jin Zhiqiang's breathing seemed to pause for a moment, and then he couldn't help but high-five, "Boss Kun is really courageous! Great! So straightforward! You are straightforward, and I am straightforward too!"

After a pause, he turned his head and looked at me seriously. "Let's not talk about the market price. That's not the price between you and me! 1200 per piece is not enough to negotiate with you, Mr. Kun, for 1400 consecutive whiteboards! So, 4200! I will give you a total of million! Mr. Kun, transfer all the subscription certificates and the two subscribed stocks in your hand to me!"

At this point, his upper body has already leaned forward, "How is it?"

Cao Yukun munched on some melon seeds, and after finishing a handful, he shook his head and said, "Too low!"

Actually, it’s not low.

The market price of the subscription certificate had basically reached 1200 yuan per share. At that time, the market generally expected the performance of the first stock, Light Industry Machinery, after its listing. People always felt that once the stock price rose sharply to meet market expectations after listing, the subscription certificate would definitely rise in price.

As a result, light industry machinery did surge at the opening, but Cao Yukun made a special inquiry today and found out that the price of the subscription certificate did not seem to have increased - at best, it was raised from the previous quotation of 1100 or 1150. It had to add some additional conditions, such as consecutive numbers or white boards, to increase it to 1200. Now it has become a direct bid of 1200 yuan per certificate. I estimate that after some negotiation, it will be 1250 yuan!
Based on this calculation, the market value of 3600 consecutive white-label subscription certificates is approximately 3750 million to million!
As for the two stocks…how much were they worth in total? Cao Yukun spent just over 800,000 on the subscription!

Now the price is limited to increase or decrease, with a maximum of 5% per day. The market is open five days a week. You do the math, it will take about three weeks to double the price. Light industrial machinery was just listed yesterday, the 12th, with an issue price of 24 yuan, and it rose to 26.46 yuan in two days!

This morning Cao Yukun had just led people to subscribe to United Textiles, but the subscription will not end until the 15th, and it will not be officially listed and allowed to be traded until the 17th!

No matter how you calculate it, selling the two stocks as a package for 450 million is a big profit!
The gains for the next two or three months were sold out in advance!

However, after entering this situation, Cao Yukun combined the information he had in his previous life and was able to roughly work it out - simply issuing new shares one by one was actually not enough to effectively push up the price of the subscription certificate! Even as more shares were issued, the subscription certificate, which was only valid for one year, was actually depreciating after the subscription rights were exercised again and again!

So, how did the highest price of 160 times in the previous life come about?

To put it bluntly, there will definitely be a major policy change next!
The biggest possibility is to lift the price increase limit!

Only in this way can this already crazy market be stimulated and become completely violent overnight!
Cao Yukun did not intend to make the biggest money at the peak. Fifty times was actually the low price in his mind. However, before the policy market came out, he was certainly not willing to give up easily - he had already held on until now, and had already gritted his teeth and got through the most dangerous stage, right?

The Four Young Masters of Shanghai... Pah! What a bullshit name!
It seems that anyone who is associated with this title will not have a good ending in the future!

Besides...to be honest, if Jin Zhiqiang had asked for 4200 million to buy subscription certificates, Cao Yukun would have looked up to him and thought he had some courage.

But he actually wanted to include those two stocks in his 4200 million. How... petty!
Of course, in 92, even though Jin Zhiqiang's family was wealthy, it was not wealthy enough to ignore 100 million yuan - a small Western-style house in Shanghai was only yuan!
