By the time the market closed, Rheinland Industrial had risen to three dollars, just as Frank had said before. Everyone who bought this stock seemed to be floating on the clouds, and even walked lightly. Frank followed these people with soft footsteps and flushed faces out of the stock exchange and boarded the carriage parked aside. As soon as he got into the car, the smile on his face solidified and was replaced by a humble, respectful and careful look. Because Krupp was sitting inside, with an elegant coldness on his face. "Mr. Krupp, when did you come?" Frank asked cautiously. "We came as soon as the market closed and everything seemed to be going smoothly." "Yes," Frank finally felt more relaxed. "As you originally planned, it rose to three yuan before the market closed, setting a record for the local exchange." There was not much happy expression on Krupp's face. First, because this is something that has been planned, and the plan is only halfway done. Only after the entire plan is completed, he will really relax and feel satisfied.
At the moment, the fisherman is just waiting on the shore for the crabs to climb into the underground cage. If he is such a easily satisfied person and is happy about it, then he is destined to be a small role. And he was in a gloomy mood. A few days ago, Liu Banxian fell into his trap and was unable to find him. He never expected to find Liu Banxian, but the other party knocked him to his doorstep by mistake. It was originally an unintentional hunt, just like a hunter suddenly bumping into a rabbit on the way home. He just raised his gun and pulled the trigger. But he didn't expect that it was Krupp, the hunter, who escaped. Isn't this a shame? I originally thought that if I found an opportunity, I would take revenge again immediately. This would not be a huge loss, but in the end, the other party had fled without leaving even a trace. Although the popular version of this incident was just an attack on Krupp, which was surprising and did not have any impact on his reputation, it was still a huge shame for him. When he thought of this, he frowned again. When Frank saw his expression, his heart skipped a beat, thinking that he was too complacent and had made Krupp unhappy. He quickly lowered his head and said: "Mr. Krupp, please rest assured that I will never make any mistakes and let the fish in the net escape. Starting tomorrow morning, we will short this stock, release some negative news, and let it fall from three yuan to less than two cents, below the issue price. In this case, the profit we can get from it is simply unimaginable. " Only then did Krupp get attracted by what Frank said. He raised his eyebrows and said, "What are you talking about? I didn't understand it at all." Frank was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Yes, it's all my nonsense. You just think you heard a joke that is not funny and forget about it later." Krupp nodded, "I forgot about it. By the way, has the statement been written?" "It's ready." Frank took out another document from his briefcase. "In fact, you only hold 10% of the shares of Rheinland Industrial and have not participated in its management and operation. Regarding the rumors and the company's claim that [it is a subsidiary of the Krupp Group], this is completely unconfirmed rumor That’s all, you don’t know anything about it.” "Keep me clean." Krupp scratched his head and said, "Mr. Frank, when this matter is finished, you can accompany me to go boating on the lake." "Mr. Krupp, I remember you didn't have this hobby before." Frank felt a little strange.
"It didn't happen before, but people's interests will change with time and circumstances. Recently, I think it's good to go boating on the lake. It's good to listen to the birds singing and watch the water waves." "Okay, Mr. Krupp, whenever you want to go, just call me." Frank did not dispel his doubts, but Krupp was the big boss, and when the big boss spoke, he had no reason to refuse. "Come on, let's go have a meal. You've worked hard during this time." "Mr. Krupp, you have to work harder. I'm just running errands." Frank bowed his head and asked, "Where are we going to eat?" “Sicilian restaurant.” "Mr. Krupp, but I can't drink too much today." "As you wish, let's go!" …… The next day, as soon as the exchange opened, there was an influx of more people than yesterday. In addition to the purchase certificate and some analysis, more people also have two copies of the newspaper on hand. The headlines in the newspapers were all about Rheinland Industrial's huge jump at the opening yesterday. Everyone's mood was inevitably filled with excitement and excitement, and they rushed forward. Although the market had not yet opened, many people were already having heated discussions. "I met Mr. Krupp yesterday. He said that Rheinland Industrial will continue to rise. Yesterday it was three yuan, today it is six yuan, or even seven yuan!" "Hey, why didn't you let me take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune yesterday? No one informed me!" "Oh, who told you to only take women to the island to play? The good news about Rheinland Industrial's stock has long been speculated to the sky! However, as the old saying goes, it is not too late to make up for it. Maybe you still have it today. Chance." "That's for sure! If I can't keep up with the market today, I won't be able to eat anymore!" Ring ring ring!
All the noise and confusion dissipated as the opening bell rang again. Some people took out their notebooks to record real-time data and trends, while others talked loudly to the people around them and yelled something. In front of the blackboard, the meticulous staff began to draw the line with chalk on the blackboard that affects countless families and properties. Ding Jinqun walked in. His face was a little weaker than yesterday and looked a little pale, but he was in good spirits and his eyes were still shining. After scanning around the exchange, he found Frank, who was surrounded by several people asking for news. Frank's face was filled with a proud smile. He socialized with this one for a while, then chatted with that one a few times, endlessly. Finally those people walked away, leaving him standing there. Seeing Ding Jinqun coming over again, Frank couldn't help but feel a little bored. "Why, you came to me to borrow money again? How much do you want to borrow this time? Mr. Ding?" "You are mistaken," Ding Jinqun shook his head, "I am not here to borrow money from you, on the contrary, I am here to persuade you to stop." "Close hand?"
Frank felt confused, "Why stop?" Ding Jinqun didn't look at him, just stared at the blackboard, "This stock will still rise today." "Yes, of course I will! Keep going up!" While they were talking, the stock had already risen to yuan. However, it had only been open for thirty minutes, and the speed was faster than yesterday. "I advise you to buy more," Frank smiled. "You will never encounter an opportunity like this once in your life. If you don't seize it, you really won't be able to turn over." "Of course I will buy it, risk everything!" Ding Jinqun looked determined. "very good!" Frank patted him on the shoulder, "Mr. Ding, I have always admired you. I have seen many rotten scholars like you. They always keep their figures reserved and think that they are scholars and the most noble in this empire. The person with the highest status. Although the farmers were stronger than they were, the merchants were richer than they were, and the craftsmen were smarter than they were, they still felt that they were the smartest and most important people in the empire. Things are different now! Even your emperor no longer uses Confucian academics to govern the world. In Yujing and Jinmen, Western-style schools are becoming popular, and they do not teach books such as "Spring and Autumn" and "The Analects of Confucius". What do they teach? Arithmetic, physics, and chemistry, these three things are the foundation of this world. As for your poems and songs, they are of no use at all. " Ding Jinqun didn't feel angry, he just shook his head, "You are wrong." "Huh? What's wrong?" Frank's hand stopped. "You said poetry and songs are useless?" Ding Jinqun unfolded his fan. There was an ink landscape painting on it. It was very simple. Apart from the green mountains and a few flying birds in the distance, there was only a small boat on the lake. He saw this fan at a street stall and exchanged it for a wine bag's worth of wine, together with the wine bag itself that had been with him for a long time. “Although poetry, lyrics, and poetry cannot compare with weapons and firearms, they have their own uses and meanings. Many people have conquered Kyushu, including people like us from the Tang Dynasty and people from the prairie. However, no matter what means or purpose they used to conquer and rule Kyushu, they slaughtered most of the people on the ground and blocked the rivers. Our people died, the city was destroyed and turned into ruins, but the poems were still preserved. The songs sung by the girls in the Spring and Autumn Period, the moonlight seen by the people of the Qin Dynasty, people today are still singing, watching, and There is no difference. No matter now or in the future, time and weapons can only destroy a dynasty and a pile of bodies, while the real treasures will remain. You laugh at the uselessness of scholars like us, just because what you see is just us weak and unprogressive wastes. In which dynasty we people are in, it is just a matter of whether we can become officials or how big of officials we can be. It has no impact on history at all. It doesn’t make any difference, one more is not more, one less is not a lot. But you have no chance to encounter real gold. This has to be said to be your sorrow, and it is also because of the limitations of your vision. You cannot see the stars because you have never looked up. There is a saying among us Tang Dynasty people that summer insects cannot speak of ice. If you have never met those great Confucians and heroes, it is your sorrow, not their shortcomings. " "Oh?" Frank was so choked by his call that he couldn't speak, so he just walked away with a cold face. "Mr. Ding, cherish your happiness now. Soon you will not be able to laugh anymore." Ding Jinqun said calmly: "Is it because this stock will fall soon?" "how do you know?" Frank turned around and was a little surprised. This was obviously internal news.
At this time, the stock has risen to yuan, and the market is booming. Both experts and ordinary investors feel that it is very popular. There is absolutely no reason to let it go now, let alone fall. Falling, but internal news. "How do you know?" Frank asked again, lowering his voice. Ding Jinqun did not answer, but just said to him: "I said this stock will not fall as you hope, and it will rise, to eight yuan." "Eight dollars?" Frank sneered: "You are talking nonsense, you are simply suffering from hysteria." As he said this, he glanced at the clock and said, "Just watch, right away, right now you idiots who follow the heat and run around like flies are going to suffer." "No." Ding Jinqun's eyes were firm. Almost as soon as he finished speaking, bombs exploded in the public opinion of the trading center. "Rheinland Industrial has falsified its performance and listed it under a shell!" "There is a problem with the financial report. The China Securities Regulatory Commission will immediately suspend RWE's license and prevent it from continuing to trade..." "Krupp has sold off its shares!" News one after another poured a bucket of ice water on the hot market, catching everyone off guard. Soon, the unease showed up in stock prices. When one person sells, many people follow suit, and the waves of panic get higher and higher. The price of Rheinland Industrial quickly fell from four and a half yuan to four yuan, then three and seven yuan, two yuan and eightyuan, getting lower and lower. When it approached one yuan, there was already a wailing sound in the exchange. Many people were left in a daze as their property evaporated in a matter of hours. Frank sneered and said: "What? Are you still stubborn now? Or can those poems and songs save your life?" "They can't save me. The only one who can save my life is myself!" Ding Jinqun looked determined. "You're still performing here!" Frank was quite disdainful, "If you don't sell the stock in hand, your coffin will be gone." "Do you think my determination is just that?" Ding Jinqun suddenly lifted up his robe, revealing a terrifying knife edge on his thin body. "Is this?" Frank's eyes widened. "I said it won't fall and will continue to rise. I didn't just say it casually. That's what I thought and I risked my life for it." Ding Jinqun showed his wound, attracting everyone's attention. "Actually, my ninety yuan was not borrowed through a loan shark. It was impossible for anyone in Weihaiwei to lend me money, so I sold one of my kidneys on the black market!" !!!
Everyone felt that their temples were beating wildly, their mouths were dry, and their eyes were wide open like Frank's, with a look of disbelief on their faces. Ding Jinqun just glanced at the crowd, "Everyone, I say, this stock will continue to rise!" "Yes, Mr. Krupp said it will go up!" "Bad news, every company has bad news, what are you afraid of?" "It's impossible to fall, it will definitely climb up, I'm sure!" The fire that had been extinguished did not know when it would burn again. In addition, many people claimed to have seen Krupp in the bar last night. He personally guaranteed that the stock would definitely rise, so people's confidence increased greatly. Driven by this, Rheinland Industrial's stock price climbed again, climbing up from a trough at a faster speed. Not only did it quickly surpass the opening price of three yuan, it also continued to rise... People’s cheers grew louder and louder,
Frank, on the other hand, was a little broken - Krupp never went to bars, and he had already gone back after dinner last night, so why would he stay outside? Someone must be spreading the rumor, but how could so many people admit it at the same time?
Some people even said that they had a cordial chat with Krupp for a long time? How can it be! ?
Frank felt dizzy and quickly held on to the table to avoid fainting. (End of chapter)
