In Hong Kong, we build a global business empire

Chapter 45 Let the Storm Come Even Stronger
At this time, any hesitation would be fatal because it would directly lead to them facing more expensive stock costs.

Compared with the subsequent soaring price of Wharf Holdings shares, HK$35 did seem quite cheap.

Since you still have a certain amount of funds on hand, you should make full use of these resources without hesitation and invest as much as you can to seize this rare investment opportunity.

At the same time, it can further exacerbate stock market volatility and make this muddy water even more confusing!

In addition, their sudden and sharp increase in stock prices will undoubtedly arouse strong reactions in the market, triggering widespread attention and heated discussions in the market.

As expected, after receiving clear instructions from Lin Haoran, Su Zhixue and his team acted quickly and launched a comprehensive and rapid acquisition of all Hutchison Whampoa shares in the market below HK$35, without any omissions.

The market was already shocked by the stock price soaring to HK$31 at the opening. However, what was even more shocking was that in less than ten minutes, the trading volume once again showed a blowout growth. The momentum was so strong that it was breathtaking.

The team led by Su Zhixue is concentrating on the operation.

At the same time, as the boss of the team, although Lin Haoran appeared calm on the surface, he couldn't help feeling a little nervous inside.

He knew that although he had a careful plan and full confidence that he could lead the competition of Hutchison Whampoa into a white-hot stage, the real victory had not yet come.

"Boss, let me report to you about the transaction just now! We have just directly purchased 33.9 shares of Wharf Holdings. The market response was enthusiastic, and the orders in the range of HK$31 to HK$35 far exceeded expectations. Although a small part of them failed to be successfully acquired, the vast majority have been successfully brought under our control. I have carefully calculated that the average transaction price of this batch of stocks was only HK$32.73 per share, which is far lower than our expected price. It is an unexpected victory!" Su Zhixue's voice was filled with excitement and excitement that was difficult to conceal.

In just over ten minutes, they spent more than 1109 million Hong Kong dollars, with the total amount reaching million Hong Kong dollars. Such transaction speed and scale were unprecedented even for the experienced Su Zhixue in his operations over the past month.

For Han Zixing and other three newcomers who had just started their new jobs on the first day, they were so excited that they could not express it in words.

They never imagined that the starting point of their joining the new company would be so shocking - directly participating in such a large-scale transaction.

This will undoubtedly become an extremely valuable and unforgettable lesson in their careers, accumulating rich experience and precious wealth for their future growth.

"33.9 shares? This is indeed beyond my expectations." Lin Haoran said to himself with a little surprise.

Originally, he thought that being able to increase holdings by an additional hundreds of thousands of shares would be a pretty good result.

After all, when he tried to acquire stocks priced below HK$30 before, there were only about orders for this price range on the stock market, which made him realize the market's caution and conservatism.

"It seems that many stockholders are holding on to their money and waiting for a higher price before they are willing to sell," Lin Haoran analyzed. "And this just provides us with an opportunity."

He continued to think: "If I adopt a step-by-step strategy and slowly acquire, those hesitant investors may withdraw their orders and place higher prices due to the fluctuations in market sentiment. But my sudden and powerful attack directly broke their hesitation and left them no chance to adjust their strategy."

Overall, this is a good thing.

"Boss, what should we do next?" Su Zhixue asked the question at the right time.

Lin Haoran pondered for a moment and replied, "Stop buying further for the time being and instead closely monitor the stock's ups and downs." Looking back on today's trading, it did seem quite aggressive.

Within two and a half hours in the morning, they quickly acquired 15.6 shares of Wharf Holdings;

Shortly after the afternoon market opened, another 2.6 shares were quickly added to the position;
The last swift move directly bought 33.9 shares, bringing their total purchase of Wharf Holdings shares to 52.1 shares today.

Next, if the share price of Hutchison Whampoa can continue to rise as expected, it would be redundant to continue buying.

The potential profit space of high-priced stocks is already relatively limited, and continued purchases will not contribute much to improving overall returns in the later period, because the main profits will come from stocks purchased at lower prices in the early stage.

If the stock market can maintain its upward trend on its own without further intervention from him, there is no need to continue to increase holdings.

At this time, it would be a wiser choice to remain calm and wait and see.

As expected, Lin Haoran's strategy was like dropping a depth bomb in the stock market, instantly stirring up huge waves in the Hutchison Whampoa stock market and pushing it to the brink of boiling.

As for Jardine Land, seeing the share price of Wharf Holdings suddenly soar to a high of HK$35, it was immediately panicked. Its original wait-and-see attitude disappeared completely. It immediately mobilized huge amounts of funds to enter the market in an emergency attempt to stabilize its position.

The Bao family also felt unprecedented pressure and challenges. Shipping King Bao decisively issued an order to launch a full-scale acquisition of Wharf Holdings shares at all costs.

Both parties are well aware that the stock shares they hold are almost the same and the competition has entered a white-hot stage. Any slackness may lead to a complete loss and the opponent may seize the initiative and put them in a passive position.

As the two powerful financial groups changed from slowly absorbing in secret to officially entering the market in a big way, some dealers in the Hong Kong stock market keenly sensed the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and were ready to make a big move.

At the same time, retail investors and shareholders in the stock market were also infected by this craze, hoping to get a piece of this hot stock and dreaming of getting rich overnight.

As the stock market closing bell solemnly rang, Wharf Holdings' stock price had soared to a staggering HK$40.8 per share.

Recalling that when the market opened today, the share price of Hutchison Whampoa was just hovering at a little over HK$27. Although the increase on this day did not directly double, its rapid momentum was enough to make everyone dumbfounded. It is no exaggeration to call it "exaggerated".

At this moment, Lin Haoran couldn't help but feel relaxed and relieved.

For him, the surge in Wharf Holdings’ stock price was not just a numerical leap, but also a major victory for his strategic layout, indicating that his subsequent plans would have more solid support.

At this point, the trend of Hutchison Whampoa's stock has completely exceeded Lin Haoran's direct control. His initial help acted as a catalyst, stirring up huge waves in the market and achieving the best expected results.

Lin Haoran stood aside, watching Su Zhixue with deep eyes as he was busy calculating today's fruitful results. He was in a particularly good mood.
