The long night is long and I have no intention of sleeping.
Although the Yike short squeeze has come to an end, various media outlets are even busier and want to dig deeper into this matter.
SEC, Nasdaq, listed companies, hedge funds, insider trading, Wall Street media, toughness and compromise, opening and closing, compliance and crime, astronomical funds... any word can be turned into a wonderful report
.
The most direct way to obtain information is undoubtedly to interview the parties involved.
It's a pity that neither Yi Ke nor Mr. Fang accepted interviews. This is the case with foreign media. Domestic media will not lose face even if they find someone to smooth the relationship.
Normally if this is the case, I won’t say anything on the surface, but I might still be a little bit shy in my heart.
However, this is the former richest man in the world!
They are people who do great things!
Wang Fengyi didn't know how much he drank. He only knew that Mr. Fang drank intermittently, and calls came in from time to time.
When I woke up again, it was already ten o'clock in the morning the next day.
He stood up unsteadily, and when he got his phone, he could indeed see the latest relevant news from Mr. Fang.
——Yike Company will hold an online new phone launch conference at 9:00 pm on April 23, China time and 8:00 am on April 23, ET.
Wang Fengyi's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and then he realized that it was a "new phone launch conference", not a "press conference".
Yike's last press conference was a blast in the financial circle, and people couldn't help but pay attention to yet another action.
Wang Fengyi knew that Yike's press conference this year was originally in June, but he didn't expect that April was suddenly mentioned in one breath. These two months... were undoubtedly in response to the ITC's ruling and changes in competitors.
He licked his fingers for a while and decided to attend Yike's press conference today. It doesn't matter whether the machine is new or not. The important thing is to see how Mr. Fang summarizes this short squeeze.
Wang Fengyi sobered up for a while and arrived at Shenxin Science & Technology near noon.
Not long after he arrived at the company, another colleague was already on his way to Shenxin Science and Technology.
As the person in charge of Xiangjiang World, Liang Qihua has been in great pain in recent days.
How to express this pain?
It’s hard to describe!
That's a beautiful knife flashing in front of me!
That is a mountain of gold that can never be spent in a lifetime!
It's locked, no more!
What makes Liang Qihua even more painful is that with the end of the Yike short squeeze, many peers and media reviewed the matter from beginning to end and immediately believed that the reduction of holdings of Shenxin Science and Technology and Xiangjiang Huanyu was a problem, believing that there was definitely behind-the-scenes transactions and
Transfer of benefits!
Otherwise, how could Shenxin Science and Technology and Xiangjiang Huanyu, as supporters of Yike before its listing, reduce their holdings one after another at this time?
It is this strong signal of reduction that attracts more short-selling institutions to enter the market.
Liang Qihua has been frequently questioned by reporters in the past two days, and often criticized by his peers, but he really cannot tell the truth about his suffering.
He really has no behind-the-scenes dealings! There really is no benefit transfer!
It turns out that when others say you have benefits to offer, you better actually have them!
Otherwise, even high blood pressure can make you angry!
Liang Qihua saw the announcement of Yike option settlement in Xiangjiang. After all, he couldn't sit still and decided to ask for an explanation in person.
However, when he arrived at Hang Lung 23 in Yike, Mr. Fang was not at the company. He asked about the itinerary but could not answer any questions, and the phone number was even unreachable. He turned around and went straight to Shenxin Kechuang while holding back his anger.
Liang Qihua had firmly held Yike shares before. If Wang Fengyi, a super hardcore, hadn't suddenly withdrawn, he would not have reduced his holdings at all. This is the real transfer of benefits!
Well-known investors from Xiangjiang can get in without any trouble even if they don't make an appointment.
However, when Liang Qihua heard the words "Wait a minute, Mr. Wang has gone to the bathroom", he still burst into anger. For fear that Wang Fengyi would feel that he could not face him and would sneak away, he went straight to the bathroom of Shenxin Science and Technology.
, shouting the name "Wang Fengyi" and rushed in.
Wang Fengyi has experienced many battles, but he has never seen anything like this.
He was so excited that he quickly put away his clothes and pulled up his trousers, and then he saw a familiar man in a suit and glasses rushing in angrily.
"Who are you?" Wang Fengyi didn't respond.
"I am Liang Qihua!" Liang Qihua really found the real owner and immediately announced his identity through gritted teeth.
Wang Fengyi understood and raised his voice: "Oh, it's you, Mr. Liang."
He felt that this place was really unsightly and said, "Let's go, Mr. Liang, come to my office to chat."
Liang Qihua didn't want to exchange greetings at all, and asked directly: "You and Fang always have interests to convey!"
Wang Fengyi smiled bitterly and said: "Mr. Liang, do you think this is a good place to talk about this? There are others here, forget about other places, I can't clear the place here, let everyone get out quickly."
Liang Qihua calmed down for two seconds, just to confirm that Wang Gou was not trying to run away.
The two changed venues.
The two people sitting face to face in the office felt somewhat awkward.
Liang Qihua has always been a very personable person, but this time he was really too excited.
As for Wang Fengyi... He looked calm on the surface, but his back was already wet with sweat. He was a bit suspicious that Mr. Liang might have brought a knife with him. The loss was not a small loss, and it could crush someone to death if he exchanged it for cash.
"Mr. Liang, regarding your previous question, I can tell you responsibly that there will be absolutely no benefit transfer!" Wang Fengyi took a few breaths and gave a decisive answer.
Liang Qihua sneered: "Excuse me, Mr. Wang, how do you explain the sudden reduction of Shenxin Kechuang? Just before the short squeeze started in Yike?"
Although he was misunderstood by outsiders, Liang Qihua knew his own family affairs and knew that he was cheated by Shenxin Technology this time. Everything was planned. Heungjiang Huanyu was locked after the reduction of its holdings. It was all planned!
"Mr. Liang, how did you reduce your holdings?" Wang Fengyi asked back.
Liang Qihua had already aimed at the ashtray on the coffee table, and he felt like having a fit when he was asked this question.
Wang Fengyi sped up his speech and raised his voice: "How you reduce your holdings is how I reduce my holdings!"
Liang Qihua was deceived into reducing his holdings!
But he knew that Wang Fengyi would never do it. This is Mr. Fang’s dog!
Wang Fengyi saw Mr. Liang sneer and his eyes became more and more evil, and immediately said loudly: "Think about what kind of person Mr. Fang is!"
What kind of person is Mr. Fang?
When Liang Qihua was asked this question, his mood suddenly subsided a bit.
Wang Fengyi struck while the iron was hot and said sincerely: "Mr. Liang, we are colleagues and we are all shareholders of Yike. I will tell the truth. I am also very sad. 2% of the large transactions can be found at the right time in these two days.
One billion U.S. dollars means at least 12 billion Chinese coins. Who dares to say they don’t care about such a huge sum of money?"
Liang Qihua's heart ached even more.
2% worth two to three billion dollars!
"You, Mr. Liang, care about you." Wang Fengyi pointed at Liang Qihua, then pointed at himself, and said firmly, "Of course I, Wang Fengyi, also care."
He sighed: "Mr. Liang, what kind of benefits do you think it will take to dispel my concern? Do you think Mr. Fang will put two to three billion US dollars in front of me and use this to test my humanity?"
“Who the hell can withstand the test of two to three billion dollars?”
"Maybe there is someone in this world who can do it! But I, Wang Fengyi, definitely can't do it!"
Wang Fengyi was upright and awe-inspiring, spitting at every turn and saying "no" means it really can't be done.
Liang Qihua was suddenly convinced and hesitantly said: "Then..."
So what's going on with Shenxin Technology...
"Mr. Liang, what kind of person is Mr. Fang?" Wang Fengyi said again, "He knows at a glance that I'm not good, and he won't save any money to test my mind."
Two to three billion US dollars, what the hell is this concept?
Even if we break up, so what?
When I get this money back, it will be insured.
But the good thing is... Mr. Fang didn't let himself know what he was going to do this time...
In this case, just treat it as a dream. When you wake up, wipe your saliva and do whatever you need to do.
Look at Mr. Fang, he has only been the richest man in the world for three days.
Wang Fengyi's mentality was temporarily unbalanced after seeing Yike's stock price soaring, but he quickly adjusted. Is this money that Shenxin Kechuang can get?
Recognize the facts clearly and move closer actively. The days are still long.
Liang Qihua fell silent.
Although Xiangjiang Huanyu has always been respectful to Mr. Fang, Mr. Fang’s behavior is no stranger to him either.
Isn't this, isn't this Huanyu another verification of Mr. Fang's style?
People like Mr. Fang will only control risks as much as possible, even if the person in front of him is his super big iron.
Liang Qihua sighed and said unwillingly: "Mr. Wang, that's billions of dollars!"
Wang Fengyi suddenly sneered slightly: "So what if it's a few billion? If you have the ability, just take money from Mr. Fang. Paulson and the others have already tried it."
Do you, Xiangjiang Huanyu, have this ability?
How does it compare to the "King of Short Selling" and "The Number One Hedge Fund"?
If you are not convinced, just turn around and go short in the future and get your money back from Yike. How can there be so much sadness in the financial market?
Wang Fengyi also felt that Xiangjiang Huanyu was indeed... a bit miserable this time, and objectively it was indeed brought in by Shenxin Science and Technology.
Liang Qihua rubbed his face and said after a long time: "I want to see Mr. Fang."
"Mr. Liang, it's meaningless to listen to my advice." Wang Fengyi frowned and said earnestly, "Can you still ask Mr. Fang to send you the money?"
"No, Yike is about to release a new phone." Liang Qihua took a long breath, "Now that I'm in Shanghai, I always want to hear Mr. Fang talk about Yike's future development in person."
He was out of anger this time, and he actually didn't know what kind of result he wanted to achieve.
The party that had originally notified the party always wanted to reduce its holdings, but what the other party said seemed to echo in my ears again.
"Mr. Liang, don't be sorry, I understand."
"Is there anything I'm sorry for?"
"Every day I feel sorry for someone, so how can our company continue to develop?"
"Don't worry, Mr. Liang, I don't mean to blame you. Yike, like me, always welcomes collaborators."
Mr. Fang has great power, so let’s follow him for now.
Wang Fengyi smiled, that's right.
…
Yike’s new phone launch conference was suddenly announced on the official website.
But the news spread quite quickly.
The media could not find the person involved and were still paying attention to Yike's situation. Naturally, they regarded this press conference hosted by Mr. Fang two months in advance as the key news.
Bad news, Mr. Fang will not accept interviews.
Good news, Mr. Fang has always been a big talker at press conferences.
Last year's Yike press conference was dubbed by Mr. Fang as a "nokia press conference." I thought it would be difficult to surpass in terms of style. Unexpectedly, this year it was placed directly on the day after the short squeeze ended.
How can you not watch this thing?
Fang Zhuo's Twitter also updated the content after the official website announced the time, mentioning the upcoming press conference.
He jokingly said: "Due to the well-known situation, this conference will be moved online. I will live broadcast our new products and future plans for everyone at the Yike Oriental R&D Center."
"By the way, I will also answer some of your questions. I see that everyone is very enthusiastic these two days."
“Welcome to lock in the Yike official website and Yike channel on YouTube.”
Fang Zhuo has posted the time in both places, and domestic and foreign audiences can watch it. The official website of Yike also provides options for clarity and smoothness.
This press conference was relatively rushed, and no matter which market it was in, people were working overtime urgently. Fang Zhuo thought twice about placing the press conference in the old R&D center of Hang Lung 23.
Yike has a new R&D center in Hang Lung, but it is also temporary.
According to the plan, Yike will be able to move into the new headquarters one after another in the second half of this year, which will greatly alleviate office problems.
At 7 o'clock in the evening, Fang Zhuo had dinner and returned to Hang Lung 23, where he also met two Yike shareholders.
Brother Wang just had a drink last night, so needless to say.
Mr. Liang, on the other hand, came all the way and his eyes were red with excitement.
Fang Zhuo shook hands with Liang Qihua and sighed: "Mr. Liang, everyone has worked hard. Yike was almost succeeded by the short seller this time."
When Liang Qihua saw the real owner, he held Mr. Fang's hand and almost burst into tears.
He choked up and said, "Mr. Fang...you are the hardest worker. I have to bear a lot of pressure, let alone you."
The pressures on both sides are completely different, but... they are both pressures.
"Don't mention it anymore, it's all over." Fang Zhuo patted Mr. Liang on the shoulder. There was no need to mention the past. We should join hands to welcome the future.
Liang Qihua took a few breaths and tried to calm down the agitation and impulse in his heart.
When Wang Fengyi saw this, he was really afraid that something would go wrong. Mr. Liang would definitely not be able to defeat Mr. Fang, and Mr. Fang's cruelty would definitely damage his reputation.
He quickly said: "Let's go to the office first. Mr. Liang, I will make tea for you. Mr. Fang has a lot of good tea here. Mr. Fang, do you want to decorate the press conference today? I just saw a lot of them."
People are busy."
Fang Zhuo nodded: "Okay, Brother Wang, help me entertain Mr. Liang. I'll take a look first and then return a call from a friend."
Liang Qihua followed Wang Fengyi towards the CEO's office, his steps staggering a little, and his eyes really lit up. Billions, billions, billions, it would take many lifetimes to spend...
As Fang Zhuo walked towards the R&D conference room to the west, he took out his cell phone and called Lao Xiong back.
Xiong Xiaoge has not returned to China since she was in New York. She has made several calls in the past two days but has not been able to get through. She just managed to get through to one and is busy with other things. Now that she has arrived at the company, she can finally find some time.
The call is connected.
"What's going on? Old Xiong, you're tied up in New York and you haven't come back to China yet? Do you want a ransom? I've made money recently, so I can pay you some." Fang Zhuo was joking when he started talking.
Xiong Xiaoge said angrily: "It's been three days. It took three days to get in touch. If I had to wait for Mr. Fang's ransom, I would have been cold."
He suddenly felt that his tone was a bit bad and quickly controlled it.
Today is different from the past. This is Mr. Fang Zhuo, the former richest man in the world. The institution has changed color and the short sellers have stopped crying.
