"Let them sell as much as they can in the next few days."

When he said this, Zhang San looked somewhat displeased and didn't seem happy at all about receiving the OEM order for Apple phones.

He was referring to his stocks in mainland China, saying he would sell as many as he could.

On Thursday, May 24, at 9 a.m., he issued the order, instructing his various companies in mainland China to begin shipping goods in an orderly and rotating manner.

There was one thing he remembered very vividly, which was also a pain from his past life.

In a room in the Shanghai Stock Exchange, they started discussing things before the market opened.

"What's going on up there? The stock market is doing so well right now, why sell stocks?" This was a young trader with little experience, and at this moment, he couldn't speak.

"Don't talk, that's bad manners, that's immature."

"I'm sorry." The young trader suddenly remembered the rules and immediately shut his mouth.

When the market opened, they began to systematically clear out their stock holdings. The amount wasn't large, but they were truly clearing out their stock holdings in an orderly manner. However, because their scale was so large, it took a while.

When they went out for lunch at noon, the older trader said, "There are rumors in the market that the authorities are preparing to raise the stamp duty."

"Didn't the people from the CZ department come out to refute the rumors? What are you still worried about?" The young trader was a bit dramatic.

"Hehe... I don't know. We'll just follow orders. If the boss is going in the wrong direction, what does it have to do with us? We're just pawns, to be placed wherever needed."

So, over the next few days, they started by clearing out stocks that had risen significantly. While they were clearing out their stocks, the same group was clearing out stocks in the Shenzhen market.

By May 29th, they still had some stocks with smaller gains left to sell. However, on that day, the stock market surged dramatically, and those stocks that hadn't risen much also saw significant increases, with many hitting their daily limit.

"Quickly, the boss just said to clear out all stock and sell as fast as possible. Don't worry about causing any turmoil."

Their leader ran in two minutes before the market opened.

Everyone who had wanted to say something now didn't want to. These bosses are really unpredictable. But since it's not their own money, what can they do? They started searching for and selling.

With all the stocks showing a red-hot trend, on May 29th, trading volume and turnover surged rapidly, and the entire stock market soared dramatically.

During their lunch break, they went to another room to eat. All three meals were specially prepared and very plentiful.

They ate and chatted, and the young trader remarked, "Things that are come up with on a whim like this are just making things difficult for us."

"Hehe... These stocks were all bought early, so even if they lost money, they wouldn't have lost much. On the contrary, they surged today, rising even more."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when the market closed. One-tenth of the shares remained unsold, and those were the ones that headquarters had forbidden from being cleared out.

"Everything's been cleared out, why aren't we allowed to leave?"

"Who knows? It's best to wait and see."

Zhang San doesn't know if the 530 incident will happen again, but there are already rumors in the market that the Ministry of Commerce is preparing to raise the stamp duty. Although it has been said that it will not be raised, do you think Zhang San will believe it?

The next morning, the traders woke up naturally. They hadn't received any orders, so they were relatively relaxed. Then they leisurely walked to their workstations in the trading room.

"Oh my god, what happened?"

"What are you yelling about? You've woken me up."

"Look, the market... has crashed..."

On the computer monitor, the Shanghai Composite Index plummeted 281.81 points, a drop of 6.5%; the Shenzhen Composite Index plummeted 829.45 points, a drop of 6.16%.

The person who turned on the computer stared at the screen in astonishment.

Who am I? Where am I? What happened?

This is probably a true reflection of their inner thoughts. They paused for a moment, then immediately opened their browsers and saw the headline: "...The stamp duty rate on stock transactions has been increased from 1‰ to 3‰..."

"Holy crap..."

"Heh...it's all a lie..."

"Why did someone else know first?"

"Luckily, we cleared it out."

While they were still in a daze, someone walked in.

"Okay, don't panic, don't rush. We've already taken a small position. Now, let's start monitoring the market. We'll get some new information in the next few days."

It wasn't just the traders who were confused; the forums were in an uproar.

Someone posted: "Didn't they say the stamp duty wouldn't increase? How come it's increased by so much after only a few days?"

"This is called 'the rooster crows in the middle of the night, catching you completely off guard,'" someone commented jokingly below, and everyone was wondering why this was the case.

One person posted: "In the past, I only saw that when a major investor wanted to buy a stock, they would spread negative news and then accumulate shares..."

"Hey upstairs, watch yourself, don't talk nonsense..."

The discussion on the forum was so heated that it was hard to know what to say.

When operators are working on projects, they are often confined to one place for extended periods of time. To say they are completely confined is an exaggeration; it's more accurate to describe it as a closed-off environment.

Now they know there's more to it than meets the eye; what was sold before is now being bought.

"They're trying to make a splash with T (top)."

This is what everyone is thinking, and it's also true. If there are no stocks left, how can you short sell them?

And so, on June 3rd, the stock market had shown signs of stabilizing yesterday, even experiencing a slight increase. However, today at the opening, the market was still in the red, therefore…

"Start buying. Buy slowly, don't buy too frequently."

Once the order was given, it had to be executed. The same order was given in Shenzhen, and a large number of people began to buy shares.

On June 4th, after yesterday's purchases, they had completed a quarter of their position, but there was still a large gap waiting for them.

"Let's do a recap today. What are your thoughts?"

One person said, "I feel that this time it will be quite difficult to build a position. There are others like us who are also scrambling to buy."

"Yes, otherwise our orders would be processed very slowly, which means there are people above us taking the orders."

……

"Starting tomorrow, take up positions at these locations, and then all you have to do is wait."

"We need to pay attention to several stocks this time, such as Huaxia Shipbuilding... These thirty stocks are our key focus."
