"...Director Sagawa? Yes, it's me, Ning Weimin. I'm already in Tokyo, I just got off the plane..."
Ning Weimin made the call at noon when the market was closed, and it seemed that he caught Kenichi Sagawa taking a lunch break in the office of the Nomura Securities Sales Department.
Judging from the vague and confused reaction on the phone, it was not difficult to guess that Kenichi Sagawa, the stockbroker, was probably taking a nap.
At this time, Ning Weimin looked at his watch again and found that the market would open in half an hour, so he seized the little time and quickly asked the question he was most concerned about.
"Is it easy to talk? Please tell me, my account should be in good condition now, right?"
Sagawa Kenichi already knew Ning Weimin's temper very well.
I know that he is always straightforward when it comes to investment issues, and he hates it when others beat around the bush and tell the truth.
What's more, calling him just after he came back made him even more anxious.
So Sagawa quickly rubbed his face to cheer up, then looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, then retrieved the data that had been compiled long ago from the computer and reported it to Ning Weimin truthfully.
"Hi, it's convenient, Ningsang, there is no one else next to me. Please rest assured that your investment status is very good. As of the market close in the morning, your personal stock assets currently total... Let me see, it is about five
One hundred and thirty-three hundred and sixty-nine and a half million yen..."
At the end of the sentence, he lowered his voice unconsciously.
After all, investment is an extremely private matter, and Ning Weimin is his biggest client, bar none.
He didn't want to inadvertently let people who might pass by his door hear such important information.
"How much? Please repeat it again..."
It's just that maybe there was something wrong with the call line, so Ning Weimin didn't hear clearly.
"Hey, it's 53,369,500,000 yen..."
Sagawa spoke the number again, this time slower, but he still tried his best to suppress his voice and did not dare to speak louder.
"More than 53 billion?" Ning Weimin finally heard it clearly this time.
From the 40 billion before he left, stock assets have expanded by another 13 billion.
"Yes."
After replying, Sagawa excitedly announced good news.
"Ning Sang, I would also like to congratulate you. You have become one of the top ten major customers of our sales department in terms of personal investment amount."
Sagawa fully thought that Ning Weimin would be happy, but Ning Weimin's sarcastic response almost made him vomit blood.
"Well... it's a little less than I expected. Are you sure you haven't sold any shares? Are you following my instructions exactly?"
Well, that’s not enough!
Sagawa still remembers that at the beginning of the year, Ning Weimin's stock account only had a few billion yen.
Later, Ning Weimin really started to become a big player with a market value of tens of billions because he massively added 6 billion yen of follow-up funds to enter the market and increased the financing leverage.
Therefore, in Sagawa's view, in the second half of the year, just a few months after Ning Weimin left Japan, his assets continued to expand by 13 billion, which was a huge profit!
This is equivalent to earning an extra US$100 million, so you should be overjoyed.
He never expected that the other party's appetite was so big!
It would be an unsatisfying accusation!
"Ningsang, you don't know something. During the period after you left, the stock market experienced a deep adjustment. The Nikkei Index fell from 18,300 points, and the maximum adjustment range was 2,500 points.
It once broke through the 16,000-point mark. It is only in the past half month that the market has steadily recovered. Today, the Nikkei Index is still hovering around 17,300 points, and it has not yet returned to its highest level this year.
Yes. But the market value of your stock has increased a lot compared to before the adjustment."
Sagawa Kenichi, who was stunned and stunned, wiped cold sweat and explained carefully, lest Ning Weimin really blame him.
Fortunately, Ning Weimin was reasonable. After learning about this situation, he immediately changed his indifference and expressed his full understanding in a kind manner.
"Ah, if that's the case, then it's no problem. Thank you for your hard work, Director Sagawa. You must have been under a lot of pressure during this period of market adjustment, right? Did your boss force you to do transactions for me again?"
With this understanding, Sagawa breathed a sigh of relief.
Of course he knew that Ning Weimin was also giving himself an opportunity to show off his merits, so he described the situation in detail.
"To tell you the truth, there was some pressure at the beginning. At the beginning of September, the market adjustment was very strong. Almost all stocks were green. Hanwa Industrial and Yamaichi Securities, which you hold the most, had a large increase in the early period.
, the adjustment was not small, and the adjustment ranges were as high as 27% and 21% respectively within two weeks. Therefore, the sales department manager almost urged me to take emergency measures and contact you quickly, suggesting that I adjust the warehouse for you.
stocks, buying blue chip stocks in the market. But I remember you told me not to contact you if the decline does not exceed 30% of the cost line, and to stay put. I ignored the sales department and persisted. The result
Unexpectedly, both Hanwa Industrial and Yamaichi Securities released temporary performance forecasts at the end of September, and the data were very eye-catching. Then the two stocks soon began to rebound due to this, so wait until mid-October, when the market as a whole stabilizes and rebounds, you should take a heavy position.
These two stocks have long recovered all their losses, and have also taken advantage of the momentum to rise a lot. Mr. President, I have to say that you are the investor who knows the most about stocks I have ever seen. Your stock selection and investment
The level really puts our analysts at Nomura Securities... no, it's enough to put all the stock review experts in Japan to shame. Fortunately, you had the foresight to warn me in advance, so I didn't make an irreparable mistake. It was you who made me believe it.
There are geniuses in this world!”
Although Sagawa's compliment was quite exaggerated, Ning Weimin felt a little embarrassed and almost complained about it.
But for Sagawa himself, his admiration for Ning Weimin comes from deep in his heart and is very sincere. He does not find these words difficult to say or make people blush.
The reason is that Ning Weimin made a lot of money in Japan's financial speculation game!
Sagawa watched with his own eyes how Ning Weimin became successful step by step!
His financing ability and asset expansion speed are unprecedented, let alone unheard of.
And the decisions he makes are almost never missed, just like the god of investment.
Compared with his investment strategy, those Americans on Wall Street would turn into idiots who can only count coins.
How can we distinguish between right and wrong financial investment? Isn't it by harvest and profit?
No matter how reasonable your analysis is, it still depends on how much money you make!
No matter how unreasonable your investment logic and investment methods are, as long as you win the bet, you have to accept what you have to accept!
Not to mention that as an industry insider, Sagawa also knows some industry insiders that outsiders don’t know.
For example, despite the unstoppable rise in Japan's stock market in recent years, ordinary individual investors have not made much money.
They remain outsiders, prey to brokers and their privileged clients.
In fact, in order to obtain commissions, by holding large shares in the media, the four major brokerages led by Nomura are not only able to manipulate the information available to clients, but also conspire together to decide which stocks to favor.
The stocks they recommend are like "red lanterns", tempting the ignorant speculators to blindly follow them.
Their sales specialists will also help customers buy and sell stocks repeatedly without any mercy.
The unwritten motto of Nomura Securities is "Let customers speculate until they are all gone."
This shameless behavior has resulted in the average annual return on investment of most companies' individual investors being less than 10% due to frequent trading, which is far lower than the average annual 20% increase in the stock market.
A few people don't even have 4%, which is not much better than saving money.
Conversely, the only reliable way to make a lot of money is to become an insider.
Which stocks the four major brokerages plan to speculate on will be disclosed to their respective privileged clients in advance.
Such as bankers, bureaucrats, politicians, wealthy people and even leaders of violent gangs.
The four major brokerages will guarantee the investment returns of these people and will also promise to compensate them for the losses they suffer in the event of an accident.
This is the so-called "stock trading guarantee compensation".
For privileged clients who have suffered heavy losses in the stock market, brokers will provide them with "ambulance stocks" to heal their financial wounds with these stocks that are bound to rise.
Since brokers are accustomed to pushing up stock prices before additional issuances are announced, news like "such and such company has insufficient funds" becomes a complete money printing machine.
Although Japan has laws prohibiting insider trading, no one cares about it.
This market is so unfair. It’s no wonder that the Far Eastern Economic Review said that the Tokyo Stock Exchange is “the most unethical, speculative, and easily manipulated stock market in the world.”
But it is precisely because of this that Ning Weimin appears to be particularly extraordinary and truly remarkable.
He does not rely on insider trading or listen to the cheating of brokers, insists on picking stocks by himself, and uses huge amounts of money to make huge bets.
After buying it, hold it for a long time and wait for the price to rise slowly. It is completely legal and compliant.
However, his investment strategy seemed simple and even silly, but it made him a lot of money and achieved legendary investment achievements in the financial industry.
Even if others want to imitate, it will be difficult.
Because firstly, he doesn’t have the confidence to buy, and secondly, he doesn’t have the patience to hold shares.
Nomura Securities has not analyzed Ning Weimin’s investment model.
Ning Weimin's unusually large profits prompted Nomura Securities analysts to separately take out Ning Weimin's account data and study it in detail.
But even Nomura Securities’ proprietary trading couldn’t follow suit.
Just like this market adjustment, their sales department couldn't help but clear out the stocks of Hanhe Industrial that they originally bought following Ning Weimin in the self-operated market. As a result, they were completely shorted when they turned around.
On the other hand, because Ning Weimin had issued a strict request to die in advance, Sagawa did not waver at all.
Even under pressure from his boss, he did not place orders against Ning Weimin's wishes, and protected the stocks in his name for him, so that he could enjoy the highest returns.
Otherwise, when Ning Weimin comes back, he will really have nothing to explain.
Comparing these two things, how could Sagawa not respect Ning Weimin as a god?
He didn't know how Ning Weimin achieved accurate stock selection and "immovable as a mountain" wisdom.
But his ability to make money and his confidence in grasping the market convinced him and made him fall in love.
Maybe this is the difference between capable people and ordinary people!
He has no doubt that in the days to come, Ning Weimin will continue to rise in the sales department's asset ranking.
In his heart, as long as the stock market situation does not end, sooner or later, Ning Weimin will rise to be the individual client with the largest assets in his business department.
"Okay, okay, stop complimenting me. You can keep your promise and stick to it for me, and you are trustworthy. I really saw you right. I will keep your credit in mind."
Ning Weimin laughed and finally said something that made Sagawa happy and relieved.
"Everywhere, it's all because of your wisdom, President. I'm just doing my duty. You think highly of me."
And Sagawa didn't raise his tail either. Such humility and good manners made Ning Weimin very satisfied with him.
So he changed the subject and asked bluntly, "Hey, you just said that I have become one of the top ten financial customers of your sales department, right? Then I want to know, what about people at my level?
Customer, does your sales department have any expressions? It’s not just empty congratulations, right?"
"No, no, you don't have to worry about this at all. Of course, our sales department will show it with practical actions. I will wait for you to come back and listen to your request."
Sagawa Kenichi currently only has a big customer like Ning Weimin, which is almost equivalent to his career life.
Whether Ning Weimin is happy or angry is equivalent to his happiness and sadness.
So without even thinking about it, this guy just sold the sales department completely.
"If you like cars, I think you can ask the sales department to send you a Rolls-Royce or a Ferrari. If you like yachts and helicopters, the same is possible. But those things need to be reserved and are difficult to get.
Goods. In addition, in addition to giving away cars, yachts, and airplanes, our sales department usually gives away memberships to golf courses worth tens of millions of dollars to customers like you, or luxurious overseas vacation packages..."
"These, frankly speaking, I really have no interest in. You should know me, I am not a person who likes to show off and enjoy luxury. Is there any more affordable gift? Especially the golf membership, I am so busy, where can I give it?
Do you have time to play ball? In fact, for me, it is better to give me some expensive physical gifts...
What Ning Weimin said was true. That extended Cadillac made him worry enough about parking.
Although these gifts are valuable, they are troublesome to maintain and require professional locations and professional maintenance workers.
He does not have so many elegant tastes, and he also knows that his life is not yet time to enjoy himself to the fullest.
Even though he was laid up immediately, he still had two million U.S. dollars in monthly light interest, which was fully capable of supporting such a luxurious life.
But he loses his ambition by playing with things. He is a pursuing person and does not want to be like the Japanese and waste time and money on flashy gadgets.
In order to maintain high morale and continue to achieve greater success, he still wants benefits that can increase the value of his assets.
To put it bluntly, he was using luxury goods to deceive others. If others deceived him, would that make sense?
But this time Sagawa Kenichi was in a bit of trouble.
"President, if this is the case, I really...can't think of it..."
Yes, although it is a natural industry rule for brokerages to serve key customers meticulously, as long as they always have a lot of money trading in their accounts, in order to satisfy them, entertainment expenses are never a problem.
But the question is, what should we give to a high-end customer like Ning Weimin?
Although he has a clear request for gifts.
But will giving him expensive drinks, cigars, gold and silver utensils, works of art, or luxury watches and clothing satisfy him?
The value of these things is far inferior to that of luxury cars, airplanes, and yachts. Sagawa does not believe that a genius who has become a proficient in stock trading cannot calculate this amount.
Perhaps he could understand his difficulties, so Ning Weimin simply showed off his cards, "That's right, I really like art from China. I know that there is a person who has a batch of valuable Chinese utensils, worth about three thousand dollars."
It’s about 10 million yen. How about it? Can your company consider buying it and giving it to me?”
To put it bluntly, he almost said "discount" directly.
But in this way, it is straightforward enough.
Sagawa couldn't help feeling blessed, and then he came to his senses, and agreed wholeheartedly. "Yes, yes. President, you just need to tell me who to buy it from. I will report it immediately and ask the sales department to prepare this treat."
fee."
In this way, the two of them fully reached a consensus and settled the matter happily.
For Ning Weimin, of course he was very happy.
An idea suddenly struck me, and I came up with the idea of asking Nomura Securities to spend money to buy things from myself and then give them to me.
Even he admires himself for such a brain.
I did it a little bit, but I lost 30 million yen in vain. This is easier than stock trading.
Why don't you want the free money? Isn't it cheaper for the Japanese?
If in order to thank himself, he bought other people's things to make others rich, then he would not be able to sleep.
And I really don’t feel embarrassed about Sagawa.
Because this kind of thing is actually not uncommon among senior clients of securities firms. Rich people are far more shameless than ordinary people imagine.
As far as he knew, in September, the nightclub owned by the mistress of the fifth-ranked individual customer in the sales department opened.
People from the Nomura Club were invited to congratulate him, and on his suggestion, they bought a hundred bottles of XO in the store as a congratulatory gift.
That's a full fifty thousand dollars, just to make the client's mistress smile.
As a client with such huge stock assets, Ning Weimin asked for such a benefit for the first time, which was not excessive at all.
