Fight to the third generation

Another day passed.

On Wednesday in the United States, the Nasdaq index fell further, narrowing the decline to 1.1%, rebounding 0.31% on Thursday, but fell again by 3.82% on Friday.

Like boiling a frog in warm water, experts say it is a normal callback.

However, since the beginning of this week, the Nasdaq has fallen by 9%. Su Yehao not only made back the losses of the previous month, but also made a profit of more than 4 million US dollars.

Harbor City.

Saturday morning.

Su Yehao shook his legs and hummed a song. When he was eating shredded pork noodles, he told Jiang Yu:

"I found out that the stock market crash has come so quietly. Those financial institutions have really worked hard to deceive people. I don't know how many retail investors have attracted them to help them take over the order with the excuse of a short-term correction."

He thought that with the size of the Nasdaq bubble, once it fell, it would be violent, causing the stock market to melt down or drop more than 4% or 5% in a single day.

It fell slightly for three days, and the United States also slightly pulled back on Thursday.

It waited until Friday for a heavy-volume drop, with an intraday drop of more than 4.4%.

Amazon fell 4.2% in a day.

AOL Time Warner Group fell as much as 4.45%, and Kaomoji Group also fell 1.3%.

On Tuesday, Yanwen Group had reported to the SEC, that is, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Supervision Commission, and used [-] million U.S. dollars of idle funds to buy several short-selling Nasdaq companies under Fidelity Fund, Goldman Sachs Group, and Morgan Stanley. Ke's private equity fund.

It was not a joke that Su Yehao told Zheng Yongwen to use his spare money to manage money.

At that time, because the money was used for financial management instead of expanding market share, it caused ridicule from several financial experts. I didn't expect the slap in the face to come so quickly.

Today, more than 3% of the top 1.8 Internet companies with the highest market capitalization on Nasdaq have fallen by more than [-]%. However, Yanwen Group only fell by [-]% at most because of its financial management.

Anyway, he didn't plan to go private and delist, and there was no need to repurchase shares for the time being. Out of consideration for his own interests and the interests of shareholders, Su Yehao certainly hoped to be able to stand alone and stabilize Yanwen Group's stock price.

You don't need to guess, it is estimated that the retail investors of the Yanwen Group have already started to praise Su Yehao for his wisdom.

After all, everyone falls, and the less you fall, the better.

Other companies suffered heavy losses, but the Yanwen Group managed to offset part of the losses through the wonderful fund management, and this showy operation is no one...

Chapter 644 Asian Sniper

The big drop at night shocked many people.

Jiang Yu was obviously not one of them. Hearing Su Yehao's ramblings during the meal, she said calmly:

"You guy, your fortune is really good. You can earn back your principal with interest after losing so much money. Since we graduated from high school until now, how much have you earned? It's almost like a money printing machine."

As someone close to Su Yehao, Jiang Yu had witnessed his success along the way.

He has even seen a listed company with a market value of more than 100 billion U.S. dollars like Yanwen Group, so of course he doesn't think it's surprising that Su Yehao earned more than 7 million U.S. dollars in just one week.

Get used to it and become numb for a long time.

It seems normal to make money, but it is the loss before the Spring Festival, which is particularly surprising.

Su Yehao wiped his mouth and said with a smile:

"What kind of luck? It's strength. I don't know what the market will be like after the market opens next week. I'm a little nervous about putting so much money out there. Do you have anything you like recently? Just swipe my card as you like. Celebrate in advance."

After a short consideration, Jiang Yu replied: "Forget it, I want to buy fewer and fewer things. I don't have that worldly desire anymore, but Nangong asked me to accompany her to Paris Fashion Week. When the time comes, I will use your credit card. To make you cry, are you going?"

"...I'm afraid it's a bit difficult, unless you plan to go to Paris to buy the Eiffel Tower or the Louvre. If I have time, I will go with you. I'm very busy recently, so I can't say for the time being."

Su Yehao got up and pinched Jiang Yu's face, then boasted, and said:

"I'm a genius to think of using the idle funds of the Yanwen Group to invest. In this way, even if the market crashes, the Yanwen Group will have good news to support the stock price. Market value, I’m already thankful.”

After listening, Jiang Yu began to pay attention to it, and said in surprise: "Wouldn't this be a drop of 80 billion US dollars?"

"I don't know. I don't even know whether the stock market's decline this week is a real decline or a correction. But if the bubble collapses and the Yanwen Group's stock price returns to a reasonable level, the decline must be scary."

It wasn't until early this morning when Su Yehao received a call that he realized that the market had suddenly changed direction.

It would be difficult for him to make an accurate judgment now.

It was different from the expected vigor and vitality.

The Nasdaq market this week appears to be very calm, almost no different from other times. However, in just five trading days, the Nasdaq index fell 9%. In his view, investors’ confidence has been shaken. Zhou's performance is quite critical.

From early morning till now.

Su Yehao has read a lot of information and news. Even professional institutions can't grasp the market trend. They only talk about vigilance against risks, rising expectations of decline, etc. However, there are also many news about bottom-hunting and normal corrections.

With principal and interest more than one billion U.S. dollars are placed in the market, it is inevitable to worry about gains and losses.

At the moment, he was happy but also worried, for fear that the market would pick up again next week, which tortured his mentality like riding a roller coaster.

……

At eight o'clock in the morning, Linda Yun drove to Big Wave Bay.

She handed over a thick pile of documents to Su Yehao, and told:

"I went to the assistant's office just now, and it was crazy busy there today. Many media sent you invitation letters, and even the "Wall Street Journal" promised to leave the front page of the newspaper for you. Also, Sister Zhuang Wei asked me to ask you, Do you want to take this opportunity to accept some interviews and release the news of your shorting? She said that such a big matter can’t be hidden anyway. The financial advisor also suggested that you take advantage of the weekend to burn up the fire. As one of the celebrities in Silicon Valley, as long as you show firm A bearish stance will definitely attract a group of supporters and will hit market confidence."

The U.S. stock market is different from the mainland, and it is also very convenient for retail investors to short. If Su Yehao jumped out and shouted for the short camp, he might have a chance to become a celebrity in the financial circle.

However, in this way, it is easy to offend the forces of Silicon Valley and Wall Street.

Su Yehao shook his head resolutely, and said:

"Forget it, shoot the first bird, keep a low profile and make a fortune in silence, even if people know that I am short, it doesn't matter, but if I take the initiative to jump out to attract the firepower of stock investors, bulls, venture capital and Silicon Valley bosses, I am worried that I will die in the end." I don’t care about earning money or being famous, so the interviews are rejected for me, and I just say I’m not feeling well and I’m recuperating.”

After thinking about it, he continued:

"I don't show up, but I can let Yanwen Group accept interviews from reporters. Tell the outside world that our company's financial situation is healthy, and we do hold a lot of fund shares that are bearish on Nasdaq. The purpose is to hedge risks, etc. Wait, find some public relations to study, and say whatever is beneficial to the company, it is best not to mention me."

Ever since it was found that the bubble was getting bigger and bigger, from last year to now, Yanmoji Group has been making steady progress, and has been preparing for the winter since it went public.

Due to insufficient advertising efforts, some market shares were even taken away by peers such as America Online, and the number of personnel was relatively streamlined. TVT's John Zhou was transferred to the parent company as the operating officer. The key task was to live on a budget.

The previous preparations have finally come in handy now. Based on the last year's expenditure of the Yanwen Group, the funds on the books are enough for it to lose money for another four or five years.

If the investment fund earns enough money from being short-sighted, it can even last longer, and then acquire some high-quality companies to strengthen itself.

After listening to him, Linda Yun joked: "Ahao, you are so young, but your style of acting is very safe. You must have learned this prudence from your father. Actually, I also feel that at this time , it’s not very good to be interviewed, although it has the opportunity to make the stock market fall more, it is easy to offend others.”

Jiang Yu also said:

"Yeah, I see other people doing bad things and want to show off. I like to wait until the weather calms down to write an autobiography and make a movie. If you jump out now, those stockholders and technology company bosses will definitely hate you. You can’t even go to the United States, because there is a tradition of sniping.”

Su Yehao said with a smile: "Wow, I really have a business sense. After making a fortune in silence, I will reap a lot of money by selling books and movies, and then create a wise and stalwart image of me. I can kill a few birds with one stone."

"That's right, but don't mention that you asked Huang Daxian for a fortune-telling, otherwise it would be like promoting him." Linda Yun quietly reminded.

"Before I promised to win the bet, I would give Huang Daxian 80 yuan. Please remember this for me. Next time I go to the casino, I will hand over the money to him. Let's talk about it after the investment is over..."

Su Yehao went upstairs with the document and studied it alone for a while.

He is not worried about the stock market plummeting now, but he is very afraid that Nasdaq will enter the slow bear market. If the stock market falls slowly and occasionally rebounds again, it will not only torture people, but also spend a lot of money. The interest rate on capital is not low.

The stock market fell this week, and some people began to summarize the reasons for the decline.

It seems that the Nasdaq suspension of the U.S. stock market on Monday cannot be avoided. In addition, some brokers boasted at the party and privately revealed that Su Yehao made a lot of money this week. The news quickly spread on Wall Street. open.

As we all know, Wall Street can't hide secrets, and the news quickly reached the ears of the media.

Naturally.

The news of Su Yehao's crazily shorting was still not hidden after all.

The "Wall Street Journal" failed to interview the interesting anecdote between him and Yanwen Group's financial management, but after careful investigation, it published the deeds of Su Yehao, a big short seller, on the front page of the weekend.

Not only bluntly said that he earned at least [-] million US dollars this week, but also called Su Yehao "the Asian sniper who ignited the powder keg with his own hands".

After Su Yehao received the news, he almost took a breath and read the news, feeling like he was being roasted on the fire.

to be frank.

This "honor" he would rather not have.

After thinking about it, he called Zheng Yongwen and asked him if he would like to help take the blame.

Hearing that he was a scapegoat, Zheng Yongwen immediately planned to refuse, but after learning the cause and effect, he agreed to attend the press conference prepared by the public relations department.

……

Chapter 645 Dress up as a pig and eat a tiger

Before the news is fermented, clarify it as soon as possible.

Once the concept in people's minds is formed, it will not be easy to "clean up and go ashore".

Although the professional public relations team invited from Los Angeles didn't know why Su Yehao wanted to disregard himself and take off the new nickname of the so-called Asian sniper.

But only when he is low-key, unwilling to take the credit of others to himself.

For this reason, the team leader also praised Su Yehao, saying that he is the most upright, honest...and generous client.

Su Yehao directly chartered a United Airlines passenger plane, and dragged the staff of the public relations company to Hong Kong City, where they were responsible for negotiating and communicating with the media.

When necessary, they are also needed to come forward and help with small gifts. No one knows how to deal with European and American media better than Hollywood's public relations team. This is called specialization in the art industry.

On the side of the assistant's office, after saying hello, I borrowed the campus auditorium of the University of Hong Kong, and contacted various influential media to quickly complete the arrangement.

On the morning of March NO.14, Su Yehao came to the auditorium of the University of Hong Kong.

He was wearing a black suit and a white shirt today. In order to look less formal and gain people's favor, he deliberately didn't wear a tie.

This is also the suggestion of public relations, because some agencies have conducted a special investigation, and people generally hate the image of Wall Street elites.

On the one hand, it is because they are jealous of their high income, and on the other hand, it is because people who play finance are often insatiable, ruthless, and seem superior.

Standing in the backstage of the auditorium and looking out, the reporters were already on the edge of the stage, finding a place to set up video cameras and cameras, and students from the University of Hong Kong also came to join in the fun.

On the background board of the stage, the words "SSSSS Asset Management Company" were written. Today's format is similar to a seminar. Three sofas have been placed on the stage, and the news group financial moderator who is in charge of hosting is also in place.

After reading it, Su Yehao took a deep breath and said, "It's so stressful to use English for the whole interview. Brother Yong, you can talk more later. My English level can only be considered average. When I attend parties in New York, I often miss the point. .”

Zheng Yongwen not only had a suit and leather shoes at the moment, but also had a red handkerchief stuffed in his chest pocket, looking more formal than Su Yehao.

heard.

Smiling, Zheng Yongwen said, "Your English is ok. I see that when New York women strike up a conversation with you, you deal with it very well. When they say that they have a girlfriend, their hearts are almost broken."

"...That's obviously out for my money, okay, I have to be so innocent to believe that people fall in love with me at a glance."

When the two were talking, Zhao Yimeng looked at him strangely, mainly because he didn't expect that Su Yehao, a playboy, would refuse when an American girl was offered to him.

Thinking about it in a blink of an eye, she felt that the other party might be ugly. If it was Miss Vera Andrade, it would be hard to say.

Today, Zhao Yimeng learned that Su Yehao was going to hold an asset management promotion conference, so he came uninvited and rushed to the University of Hong Kong to join in the fun.

When I came here, I realized that things were not that simple.

When a white stylist was helping Su Yehao re-arrange his hair, Zhao Yimeng lowered his voice and asked in Cantonese: "How can you push it out because of your personality? Is there any explanation for this?"

Su Yehao looked at her, knowing that the foreigners beside him did not understand Cantonese, so he explained calmly:

"What's wrong with my personality? I've always kept a low profile. If people think that this time, I'm the culprit that caused the Nasdaq to plummet. Although I have the opportunity to make a name for myself in the international financial circle, it's not good for me. In the development of Silicon Valley, and I need to stay dormant now, if people keep watching, some businesses will be affected, especially in the semiconductor industry, which is very important to me.”

Zhao Yimeng immediately guessed something, nodded his head and said, "So you plan to use Mr. Zheng as your shield?"

"It can't be said to be a shield, it's just a win-win situation. I don't want fame, but he needs influence to compete for the first CEO or chairman of the board of directors of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. I used to be the chief financial consultant. If I can successfully attack the Nasdaq index If he is famous internationally, the difficulty will be greatly reduced, and now he still lacks a little international reputation, if multinational companies recognize him, other competitors will fall behind."

After Su Yehao finished speaking, he looked in the mirror and found that he looked very handsome. The skills of a professional hair stylist were quite different from his messing around.

Zhao Yimeng seemed to be exposed to some secret, a little excited, and continued: "Win the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, your ambition is getting bigger and bigger, but the Hong Kong stock market has been tossed to death by international hot money in the past two years. With this honor, Mr. Zheng is indeed very likely to succeed in the position."

"That's right, this time I succeeded in short selling, Brother Yong helped me a lot."

It is already Tuesday in Hong Kong City. After the US stock market opened this week, it has fallen for two consecutive days. In the past seven trading days, the Nasdaq’s decline has expanded to 14%. This level is not as simple as the so-called callback by experts. Panic has spread.

It was precisely because of this that Su Yehao took the time to try to clarify, so as not to be accused of shit.

Regardless of the truth about the stock market crash, as long as the media deliberately contributes to the flames, people will blame him, thinking that it was caused by malicious short-selling, and forget the root causes of the stock market bubble, the Federal Reserve and Wall Street.

Knowing how much those Yankees like to blame, Su Yehao already had a premonition that a scapegoat was hanging over his head.

Therefore, it is not wrong to say that Zheng Yongwen should be blamed.

The difference is that Zheng Yongwen is obviously very happy to recite the scapegoat this time. Judging by the expression on his face, he almost burst out of laughter. This guy already has a bit of a heroic plot, and he will not refuse anything that can show off.
