2003: The Opening Sniper Against the Financial Tycoon

The news segment about Shenzhou-5 lasted only one and a half minutes.

After Qin Hanyang finished reading it.

I found Chen Xiaohong on QQ and sent him a message.

"Have you finished reading the messages?"

"I've finished reviewing it, boss. We're currently integrating the previous data, and the draft should be ready in half an hour at most. Just wait and see."

Not long after Chen Xiaohong replied to the message,

For some reason, a number of popular science posts and provocative posts have appeared on various platforms.

Wow, Shenzhou 5 is about to launch! I can't wait!

Why is everyone rushing to build this thing? Wouldn't it be better to use that money to improve people's lives?

[You upstairs don't know anything! This is about the aerospace economy, you know absolutely nothing!]

[A manifestation of national hard power: Do you understand the field of major national equipment?]

【...】

Popular science doesn't generate much traffic; in the end, it's the online arguments that come first.

As a result, the words "Shenzhou V" floated everywhere on various forums all night long.

Many netizens felt that he looked familiar, as if they had seen him somewhere before, but they just couldn't remember where.

In fact, starting in March of this year, the Shenzhou-5 spacecraft had already completed the delivery and final assembly of the products to be installed on board.

Next came the full ship inspection, performance testing, and the regression testing we just did, etc.

CCTV recorded and tracked every step of the way, and reported on every single link.

But because it hasn't been fully launched yet, people are completely indifferent to this news.

It's like a person climbing Mount Everest; before reaching the summit, no one cares about their preparations.

After all, even the astronauts were only finalized 16 hours before the official launch of Shenzhou-5.

the next day.

The stock market opens.

Prior to this, Qin Hanyang received a message from Wang Pengfei.

Tang Wanxin pledged his 1 million yuan legal person shares in "Xiang Torch" to the bank.

This was one of the best assets under the Delong Group, and then he invested it in the stock market.

"It's hit the daily limit again!"

"It hit the daily limit up this morning!"

"All three new and three old stocks in the Delong Group are up!"

"They've already partnered with the foreign devils; it looks like they're really about to take off!"

"Integrate with international standards and revitalize our former glory!"

"The price has gone up for two days, is it still a good time to buy?"

I bought it before the market closed!

The first day's limit-up was either luck or a coincidence.

But the fact that the same thing happened the next day was enough to dispel the doubts in some people's minds.

Although Delong has been declining in recent years, it is still number one on paper and occupies the leading position among private enterprises!

The hype surrounding "aerospace technology" is already beginning to emerge thanks to the overwhelming marketing both online and offline.

That evening, Qin Hanyang and Tang Wanxin spoke on the phone again.

"There aren't many retail investors left. Today, some large investors and institutions have also entered the market."

"continue."

Day three.

The market is still booming across the board.

In forums and stock exchanges, discussions about "Delong Overseas" were rampant due to the soaring stock price.

Most of them are even "Silicon Valley Stories" written by Chen Xiaohong.

After all, people love to hear gossip!

This marketing campaign even dragged in some recent graduates and college students.

"Haha, luckily I entered the market yesterday. I made a small profit of 2 today. I'm bullish on Delong; it's simply the greatest investment ever!"

"I am the Wolf of Wall Street!"

"Even Buffett is nothing special!"

"While my peers are still in school, I'm already making money in finance!"

"Wuhu~ I started investing in stocks right after graduation, way ahead of my peers. Now I'm getting ready to look at cars~"

"..."

Three consecutive days of limit-up price increases!

A frenzy of celebration!

That evening, a post revealing the story quietly appeared on various platforms.

[Insider information reveals that Delong will join forces with a state-owned aerospace enterprise, ushering in a historic leap for the first private enterprise!]

There was even a photo of a contract!

Pictures don't lie!

Following this revelation, a series of posts emerged that fueled the flames.

This seemed to have been premeditated, with local print media also reporting on it simultaneously.

[Delong Group's self-rescue? Behind it all is China!]

[Next step: To break into the Fortune Global 500!]

[Capital is surging forward; financial giants are about to take center stage on the international stage!]

【...】

The news was known to most people early the next morning.

For a time, everyone mistakenly believed that this was the first private enterprise to have reached a cooperation agreement with a state-owned enterprise.

"Holy crap! The ultimate good news has arrived!"

"Buy more! Buy more!"

"Even if it goes higher, I'm going to chase it!"

"Just waiting to eat meat!"

"It's impossible for it to fall tomorrow!"

On the fourth day, Shancheng Industry, a subsidiary of the Delong Group, closed with a surge of 8%.

But faced with this great positive news, very few people sold, and some long-time investors even bought more shares at the top.

Other novices who didn't even have an account were also persuaded to open one.

Qin Hanyang saw this scene.

It reminded me of the later craze for high-end soy sauce-flavored technology and the gold rush; the level of fanaticism was exactly the same.

the other side.

CNSA headquarters.

"Tell me! Who spread these messages? We've been bombarded with calls from people! It's causing such a bad impression!"

The middle-aged man slammed an ashtray heavily on the table, glaring angrily at the middle-level manager in front of him.

The latter looked aggrieved: "Director Liu, this is definitely Delong causing trouble... Didn't you promise to let them do our publicity?"

"But I didn't ask him to do that!"

Director Liu felt a headache coming on.

A few days ago, Delong sent people to sponsor them, providing five million yuan annually for five consecutive years, and also promising to give them free publicity.

The only supplementary contract was to specifically request one of the outstanding astronauts to act as their spokesperson in the future.

Actually, whether it's sponsorship or endorsement, it's a minor matter.

Because they also accepted sponsorship and endorsement contracts from Mengniu.

The CEO of Mengniu has a lot of influence, but Tang Wanxin also has a lot of influence. Neither of them is easy to offend, and the latter's offer is also very tempting.

Delong agreed that after securing funding from SpaceX, they would consider sharing technology with them.

This condition was the main reason why the final contract was finalized!

But now, suddenly, a collaboration between a "state-owned aerospace enterprise" and the "number one private enterprise" has been revealed?

These baseless rumors have a huge impact on them.

Director Liu said, "Quickly draft a notice and send it out tonight to clarify the situation."

"OK."

The middle-level manager slunk back to his office and relayed the order to his subordinates.

The person asked, "We're still getting calls asking about the situation. How should we respond?"

"What's the point of replying! Is this even explained clearly? The more you try to explain, the worse it gets!"

The middle manager angrily retorted, "If you think there are too many calls, just pick the receiver up and stop them from calling!"

"Oh? Okay!"

The frontline employees' eyes lit up; they had learned another trick.

The notice was written very quickly.

However, it needs to be reviewed by several leaders before it is finally released through official channels.

It wasn't until midnight that the official statement, stamped with the company seal, was finally published on the official online channels.

Because virtually no normal person would click on this kind of channel.

No one noticed it at first.

It wasn't until 2 a.m. that someone with ulterior motives saw the message and started circulating it.

As a result... all the major platforms exploded.
